In order to observe the febrffugal response and analysis on its mechanism of needling "Shang gen" point bilateral infraorbital nerves of rabbits were sected in the experiment. Fever models were made by leukocytic pyrogen. The experiment findings were as follows:1. It was found that when febrile response of leukocytic pyrogen in rabbits was significant, the cAMP content in CSF was strikingly increase (25.14?2.11pmol/L). During electric needling "Shang gen" point of febrile rabbits, however, fever response was markedly inhibited (△T was 0.27?0.07 at 60min); The cAMP content rise in CSF was markedly inhibited (11.22?0.13 pmol/ml).2. After sectioning bilateral infraorbital nerves of rabbits, the fever response of febrile rabbits was not depressed (△T was 0.71?0.06 at 60min) during electric needling "Shang gen" point. In the mean time, the cAMP content in CSF was significantly increased (28.53?1.12 pmol/ml).3. The authors inferred that the mechanism of febrffugal response of electric needling "Shang gen" point might be closely associated with producing nerves impulse (from the that point) which inhibited probablely the synthesis of cAMP through some modes.

The effects of polymerization conditions including scan potential range, scan cycles, the concentration ratio of template molecules to functional monomer, pH of the buffer, and washing time for removing the template molecule from the imprinted polymer on the difference of zero current potential of benzidine ( BZ) interaction with BZ-MIP were investigated. The optimum preparations were obtained. The imprinted capacity of benzidine, 4-chloroaniline, and 4-aminobiphenyl and carmine was calculated as 0. 632, 0. 1123, 0. 1123, 0. 0847 and 0. 0725, respectively. This indicated that BZ-MIP had good specific recognition and selectivity to benzidine, and other substances did not interfere with the binding of BZ-MIP with BZ. The zero current potential variation was linear with the lorgarithm of BZ concentration in the range of 4í10-8-1í10-5 mol/Lwith detection limitation of 1. 89í10-8 mol/L. The sensor was used to detect BZ in waste water sample with recoveries of 95 . 7%-104 . 2%.

BAcKGROUND:In recent years,the pedicle screws fixation technique,which is used in fixation for atlantoaxial instability associated with trauma,severe degeneration and tumorectomy,has been developed.However,this kind of technique easily causes several complications,including malpositional screws,vascular injuries,and even vertebral artery injury.Based on the biomechanical characteristics of memory alloy and determination of atlantoaxial data,a neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook was designed to treat atlantoaxial instability.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the biomechanieal characteristics of the neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook for atlantoaxial instability.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Repeated measurement analysis of variance test was performed in the Laboratory of Clinical Anatomy and Medical Biomechanics,Southern Medical University between March and April 2008.MATERIALS:Eight fresh adult craniocervical specimens(C0-C4)were provided by Department of Clinical Anatomy,Southern Medical University.Atlantoaxial neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook(50.8%-51.8%nickel and the remaining part was titanium)was fabricated by Shanghai Xinchang Memory Alloy Co.,Ltd.METHODS:The included eight C0-C4 specimens were used to test three-dimension ranges of motion(ROM)by fixation and neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation.Then,the positions of spine varying from no loading to the maximum loading status were scanned and analyzed using image processing software to determine the three-dimensional ROM under different statuses.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Three-dimensional ROM of tested specimens.RESULTS:Neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation and Germany AESCULAP SSE hanger fixation had similar flexion-extension range of motion(P=0.595).Lateral bending three-dimensional ROM was greater in the neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation group than in the Germany AESCULAP AAE hanger fixation(P< 0.05).The rotatory three-dimensional ROM was smaller in the neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation group than in the Germany AESCULAP AAE hanger fixation(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation had comparative post-surgery immediate stability with the Germany AESCULAP AAE hanger fixation.Neotype shape memory alloy cervical hook fixation produced a little worse biomechanical lateral bending stability and a little better biomechanical rotatory stability than Germany AESCULAP AAE hanger fixation.

BACKGROUND: In vivo and in vitro experiments have demonstrated that polyetheretherketone (PEEK) polymer is the best cervical fusion cage material due to its good biocompatibility, elastic modulus similar to human bone, and satisfactory plasticity and hardness.OBJECTIVE: To assess the outcomes of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) cage filled with nano-artificial bone following anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) in patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy.METHODS: In total 17 patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy were collected from the Department of Orthopedics, First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University between May 2007 and September 2009. There were 12 males and 5 females,averaging 55 (range 42-67) years of age. All patients underwent ACDF using PEEK cage filled with nano-artificial bone. Patients'neurological functions were assessed on the basis of Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scoring system. The distance between the midpoint of the upper end plate and lower end plate was measured as interboby height. Radiographs with the neck in lateral flexion and extension were obtained to evaluate fusion results.RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Seventeen patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy participated in the final analysis.Almost all patients had symptomatic improvement. Within postoperative several days, muscle strength of lower limb was increased, and limb was more flexible after surgery than prior to surgery. At 3 months after surgery, JOA scores were significantly increased compared to prior to surgery, the operated segments were stable and disc space height was satisfactory. In addition, no complications were found, and all cases achieved solid fusion, as confirmed by radiographs. These findings suggest that the immediate stability of the operated segments can be obtained by anchoring PEEK cage, and the nano-artificial bone-filled PEEK cage is safe, simple, and with relatively few complications. It is therefore a good choice for patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy.

HM(hibernating myocardium)is an adaptive phenome-non of myocardium against sustained ischemia,which maintains its tissue vitality through balancing energy supply and demand.It widely exists in patients suffering from coronary heart disease. HMhas its own metabolic pattern,instead of regular FAO(fatty acid β-oxidation)-based metabolism,glycolysis became main pro-cedure.Reduction of FAO,TCA (tricarboxylic cacidcycle),ETC (electron transport chain)enzyme has been observed,ROS(reac-tive oxygen species)and UCP2(uncoupling protein 2)have been up-regulated.UCP2,which promotes proton leak across innermembrane of mitochondrial and leads to ATP reduction,has e-merged as an important regulator of the energy production.It is regulated by up-stream proteins such as AMPK,PPARs,PGC-1α,and other factors like FFA(free fat acid),ROS and purine nucleotide.HM has potential function of ischemic myocardium, which can improve cardiac function through reasonable interven-tion.Modulation of UCP2 can optimize energy production,and is essential to HM metabolism.

To investigate collagen protein expressions in ischemic myocardium of rats with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and the effects of qi-tonifying, yin-tonifying and blood-activating herbs and detoxifying and blood-activating herbs.

The facile and efficient synthetic route for Ag dendritic nanostructures on Indium tin oxide ( ITO) via electrodeposition was reported. The results showed that the Raman intensities of rhodamine 6G ( R6G) decreased with decreasing the loading concentration, and even at a low concentration of 10-10 mol/L, the signatures of R6G in Raman spectrum were still clearly observed. It indicated that the Ag dendritic nanostructures exhibited high surface-enhanced Raman scattering ( SERS) sensitivity. Moreover, the relative standard deviation ( RSD ) of band at 610 cm-1 was calculated to be 12 . 1%, 12 . 0%, 11 . 7%, 10 . 9%, 13. 2% and 14. 3%, respectively, corresponding with the concentration of R6G from 10-5 mol/L to 10-10 mol/L, which revealed that the Ag dendritic nanostructures could provide abundant hot spots and exhibited excellent reproducibility. In addition, the SERS spectrum of 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3MPA) also could be detected when its concentration was 10-5 mol/L. This method offers an easy and low-cost way to prepare Ag dendritic substrates and makes SERS detection more practicable.

Objective To investigate the nosocomial infection status in adult patients after cardiac surgery , who suffered cardiac shock and were supported with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO).Methods The data of this retrospec-tive analysis were collected from adult patients of postoperative cardiac shock supported with veno-arterial( VA) ECMO from January 2011 to December 2013 in the Center for Cardiac Intensive Care, Beijing Anzhen Hospital.Results 125 patients were enrolled and nosocomial infection occured in 44 patients(51 episodes), infection rate was 35.2% or 71.8 episodes per 1 000 ECMO day.Respiratory tract infection occured most(27.2%), and then bloodstream infection(12.8%).The infection increased in the extension of time.The cultivation of the phlegm and blood specimen showed that the major pathogens were gram-negative bacteria.The patients were divided into the infection and the non-infection groups, the incidence of remedially continuous renal replacement therapy were significantly higher in the infection group than that in the non-infection group and the duration of ECMO support, the lenth of postoperative hospital stay, and the lenth of ICU stay were significantly longer in the in-fection group than those in the non-infection group[40.9% vs.22.2%, P<0.05; (7.2 ±4.6) d vs.(4.9 ±2.1) d, P<0.01;(12.5 ±6.2) d vs.(9.1 ±4.9) d, P<0.01和24(13, 36) d vs.15(11,20) d, P<0.01; respectively].The pa-tients in the infection group had higher mortality compared with the patients in the non-infection group(53.5% vs.17.1%, P<0.01).Conclusion Nosocomial infection is one of the common complications of the ECMO treatment and affects the prognosis of patients.The strict aseptic technique and rational application of antibiotics may reduce the mortality .
