Objective To discuss the influence of preoperative visiting by special visiting nurses before operation on relieving mental tension of patients. Methods 80 patients were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group with 40 patients in each group.All patients were prepared in the same way except that patients in the experimental group were visited by the operation room nurses before the operation.The differences in heart rate and blood pressure were compared between the two groups as the criteria for judging mental tension of the patients. Results Blood pressure and heart rate of patients in the experimental group did not fluctuate as much as the patients in the control group. Conclusions Visiting patients before the operation can stabilize patients' emotion and reduce their stress reaction and mental tension so as to help them get through the perioperative period more smoothly.

Objective: To study the inhibition and mechanism of tea polyphenols (TP) on apoptosis induced by oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Method: HUVEC cells were administered with TP (25 ?g/ml), ox-LDL (200 ?g/ml)+TP (25 ?g/ml), ox-LDL (200 ?g/ml) respectively, cells with equal volume of solvent as control. Cell viability was determined by MTT assay, apoptosis by acridine orange fluorescence dyeing, and expressions of Bcl-2、Bax and caspase-3 were analyzed by Western blotting. Results: Ox-LDL could inhibit HUVEC cell proliferation. After treated with both TP and ox-LDL , the cell proliferation increased obviously and showed significant difference from the cells treated with ox-LDL only (P

Objective To investigate the clinical significances of thyroid function changes in patients with post-stroke depression(PSD). Methods Sixty two cases with acute cerebral infarction (CI) were stratified into two groups by Zung self-rating depression scale, single cerebral infarct patients group (CI group) and PSD group. Serum levels of FT3, FT4 and TSH of the patients were detected on 2 days,7days,14 days and 21days after admission. Results ①On each time point after admission, FT3 levels in PSD group were lower than those in CI group. FT3 levels in the two groups on the 7 days were higher than those on 2 days(2.04±0.53 vs 1.28±0.19, 1.43±0.91 vs 1.07±0.37, P <0.05).On the 14 and 21 days, levels of FT3 in the PSD group were continuously increased.②On the 2 days and 7 days after admission, FT4 levels in PSD group were higher than those in CI group. FT4 levels in the two groups on the 14 days were lower than those on 7 days(1.52±0.18 vs 2.09±0.26, 1.57±0.31 vs 2.28±0.38, P <0.05). ③On the 2 days after admission,the TSH level in the PSD group were lower than that in CI group(2.02±0.36 vs 2.27±0.49,P <0.05). Conclusion The results indicated that the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis plays important role in the pathogenesis of PSD.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of reconstruction by using the free iliac flap with nerve anastomosis to repair the composite tissue defects of heel.Methods From March 2009 to August 2012,five cases with the composite tissue defects of heel,including 2 cases with the bottom defects and 3 cases with the tibial defects of heel,were repaired by the free iliac flap,and the feeling of the heel were reconstructed by nerve anastomosis of the flap.The ventral wound were sutured simply.Results All iliac flaps survived and the wound healed in one stage.Patients were followed up from 6 months to 12 months.Appearance and function recovered and the feeling recovered from S2-S3.The foots walked freely.The skin of iliac abdomen were scarred and lead to hyperpigmentation.Conclusion Using the free iliac flap with nerve anastomosis could repair the bone and soft tissue defects of heel and reconstruct the sensation of warmth and sense of pain of the heel.With the characteristics of hidden wound and little damage,the clinical effects was satisfied.

Objective To investigate the effects of polysaccharide sulfate(PSS)on the growth of vascular endothelial cell cultured in vitro and the adhesion of vascular endothelial cell to polymorphonuclear neutrophils(PMN).Methods ECV-304,a kind of human umbilical vein endothelial cells,was cultured in vitro with different concentrations of PSS(0,50,100,150,200,250 g?mL-1),the growth of ECV-304 was observed by means of MTT.Hypoxia/ reoxygenation(H/R) model of ECV-304 was established,the adhesion rate of PMN from patients with cerebral infarction to cultured ECV-304 was detected with or without treatment of PSS and H/R.Results The growth of ECV-304 in PSS-treated subgroups(final concentrations: 50,100,150,200 g?mL-1) were much better than in non-PSS subgroup,especially in subgroup with PSS final concentration of 100 g?mL-1.The adhesion rate of cultured ECV-304 to PMN from patients with cerebral infarction was higher significantly than that from the healthy subject,which was increased when ECV-304 being treated with H/R.The adhesion rate of cultured ECV-304(whether treated with H/R or not) to PMN was decreased significantly when ECV-304 being treated with PSS(100 g?mL-1).Conclusion The experiments in vitro showed that PSS could promote the growth of cultured ECV-304 and decrease the adhesion rate of H/R ECV-304 to PMN.

Vascular cognitive impairment in patients with severe stroke has attracted wide attention of clinicians in recent years,and the cognitive impairments of transient ischemic attack (TIA) and minor stroke are often overlooked because of their mild symptoms and short duration.This article reviews the advances in research on cognitive impairment in patients with TIA and minor stroke in recent years in order to increase the degree of attention of clinicians and improve the overall prognosis of patients.

Objective To compare the effects of three kinds of fixative solutions on paraffin section of mouse lens tissue and optimize the fixing?method of paraffin section in mouse lens tissue. Methods Three kinds of conventional fixatives were selected for the test ,including the conven?tional Davison’s solution,modified Davison’s solution and 10%neutral buffered formalin. Mice eyeball tissues were fixed with three different fixa?tives,embedded,sliced and then stained with HE method. The paraffin slices were observed under the light microscope. Results The structures of lens and retina fixed in conventional Davison ’s fixative solutions were clear and intact ,and the cells were arranged regularly and compactly. There was no eyeball distortion,contraction and retinal detachment in the eyeballs fixed in modified and conventional Davison’s fixative solution. However,the ones fixed in 10%neutral buffered formalin showed eyeball distortion and contraction,space and spherules. Conclusion The mice lens slides made from tissues fixed by conventional Davison ’s fixative solution are better than fixed by modified Davison ’s fixative solution and the 10%neutral buffered formalin fixed ones.

AIM: To study the effect of tissue kallikrein gene (HK) treatment on blood pressure in type 2 diabetic rats and its mechanism. METHODS: Male Wistar rats were injected with low dose streptozotocin and fed with diets enriched in fat and sugar to form type 2 diabetic model. Recombinant adeno-associated viral vectors (rAAV)-mediated HK gene (HK group) or LacZ gene (LacZ group) was introduced to the diabetic rats. The systolic blood pressure was measured every 2 weeks. The acetylcholine (Ach)-dependent vasodilation response, the synthesis of nitric oxide (NO), the expression of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and endothelin-A receptor (ET_A-R) in the aorta were detected. RESULTS: (1) Systolic blood pressure was significantly higher in diabetic rats than that in normal control rats. In HK group, systolic blood pressure was significantly reduced within 2 weeks after injection with rAAV?HK, reached near normal levels at 4 weeks and kept until the experiments ended (16 weeks). (2) In LacZ group, Ach-dependent vasodilation response of isolated aorta was markedly decreased than that in HK group (P
