Objective To investigate the effect of butylphthalide and sodium chloride injection postconditioning on focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and endoplasmic reticulum stress in rats.Methods Thirty-six male SPF Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 2-3 months,weighing 260-280 g,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =12 each):sham operation group (group S),focal cerebral I/R group (group I/R) and butylphthalide and sodium chloride injection postconditioning group (group Buty).The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 10 % chloral hydrate 300 mg/kg.Focal cerebral I/R was induced by occluding right middle cerebral artery for 2 h followed by 24 h reperfusion in I/R and Buty groups.Butylphthalide and sodium chloride injection 2.5 mg/kg was injected via the tail vein immediately after onset of reperfusion in Buty group,while the equal volume of normal saline was injected in I/R group.Neurological deficits were assessed and scored at 24 h of reperfusion,and then the brain was isolated for detection of neuronal apoptosis (by TUNEL) and the expression of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) and caspase-12 in ischemic cerebral cortex (by immunohistochemistry) in brain tissues.Apoptosis index was calculated.Results Compared with group S,the neurological deficit scores and apoptosis index were significantly increased,and the expression of GRP78 and caspase-12 was up-regulated in I/R and Buty groups (P < 0.05 or 0.01).Compared with group I/R,the neurological deficit scores and apoptosis index were significantly decreased,the expression of GRP78 was up-regulated,and the expression of caspase-12 was down-regulated in group Buty (P < 0.05).Conclusion Butylphthalide and sodium chloride injection postconditioning can reduce focal cerebral I/R injury in rats,and inhibition of endoplasmic reticulum stressmediated cell apoptosis is involved in the mechanism.

Objective To obtain more detailed microsurgical anatomical data and multi-slice helical CT scanning of cochlear aqueduct for the translabyrithine approach. Methods Twenty cadaver heads(40 sides)fixed with formalin were dissected under a microscope ,and cochlear aqueducts were found and measured. Five cadaver heads(10 sides) were scanned by multi-slice helical CT. Results The width of external aperture of cochlear aqueduct was (2.64?0.82)mm. The length of cochlear aqueduct was (8.40?1.35)mm. The distance between cochlear aqueduct and cranial nerves Ⅸ, Ⅹ, Ⅺ, and that between the inferior petrosal sinus was(1.08?0.36 )mm,(2.71?0.63)mm,(4.52?1.25)mm, (1.14?0.46)mm, respectively. The distance between external aperture of cochlear aqueduct and the inferior margin of internal acoustic meatus aperture was (5.53?0.93)mm. The otic capsule segment of cochlear aqueduct could not be demonstrated on the coronal section. The petrosal portion could be demonstrated by both coronal and axial scannings. Conclusion The axial scanning was useful for detecting cochlear aqueduct. Cochlear aqueduct could be regarded as one of the landmarks in translabyrithine approach for cerebellopontile angle operation.

Objective Mikulicz's disease (MD) was considered to be a subtype of Sj(o)gren's syndrome (SS) due to the clinical and histological similarities between them.Evidence had shown that there were differences between MD and typical SS.The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between MD and SS,by means of analyzing the expression of IgG4 in salivary glands and the clinical characteristics of patients who were previously considered as SS.Methods The paraffin sections of salivary glands from SS patients were stained with monoclonal antibodies to IgG4 and CD38.Patients were divided into two groups based on the pathological results.Analysis of the symptoms,the signs and the laboratory results were carried out in these patients.The difference in laboratory parameters and histopathological gradings in the two groups was analyzed.Normal and abnormal distributed data comparison was conducted using random independent samples t-test and rank sum test respectively.Two-sample rates were compared with Chi-square test.Results Based on immunohistochemistry of IgG4 distribution,the 58 patients with SS were divided into two groups:IgG4 related (9 cases) and non-IgG4 related (49 cases).Histopat-hologically,IgG4 related cases showed IgG4+ plasma cells/IgG+ plasma cells infiltration and there were more IgG4 related monoclonal antibody expressed when compared to IgG4 unrelated cases.In addition,there were also significant differences in clinical features between the two groups.IgG4 related disease was associated with male gender,higher level of plateletconnt,lymphocytes [(2.4±0.8)×109/L vs (1.4±0.7) ×109/L] count and CRP [(52±60) mg/L vs (15±17) mg/L] levels and lower titer of IgM [(1.2±0.7) g/L vs (1.8±0.8) g/L],antinuclear antibody (56% vs 87%) and anti-SSB antibodies (13% vs 54%) (P<0.05),when compared with IgG4-unrelated cases.There was no significant difference in other indicators (P>0.05).Conclusion The present study has demonstrated that some of the MD patients misdiagnosed as SS.Some of the laboratory tests such as the level of platelet and lymphocyte count,serum level of CRP,IgM,antinuclear antibody,anti-SSB antibodies,the serum levels of IgG4 and the histopathological presentations in the salivary gland are different between these two disorders.Because of good response to steroid in MD,so laboratory tests and pathological examinations for IgG4 can help to avoid misdiagnosis.
