Journal of Third Military Medical University 1984;0(01):-
The selective vulnerability of brain tissues after 30 minutes of complete ischemia was observed 5, 15, and 30 minutes after ischemia and 15, 60, and 180 minutes after reperfusion in rats under optical and electron microscopies. It was found that the cerebral cortex especially the third and fifth lamina, the H1 segment of the hippocampus, and the Purkinje cells of the cerebellum were most liable to be damaged after ischemia. After reperfusion, the alterations of membrane system, nuclei and organelles were significant. The membraneous structures which contained a large amount of lipids were more severely damaged. At the same time cerebral edema was found, the severity of which was correlated with the intensity of histopathological and ultrastructural changes of the brain and the degree of blood brain barrier disruption.The findings suggest that oxygen free radicals and lipid peroxides may play an important role in the development of the damages in the brain mentioned above after reperfusion.

Objective To investigate the isolation and antimicrobial resistance of hypermutable Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains.Methods The cultured bacteria were identified by API 20NE system.The susceptibilities of bacteria were detected by disk diffusion method and the results were confirmed with the rules of NCCLS/CLSI.The hypermutable strains were identified byhigh concentration of rifampin-resistant growth assay.Results Among analyzed 100 strains,37 strains(37.0%) were hypermutable.The resistant rates of hypermutable strains to imipenem,meropenem,cefoperazone/sulbactam,piperacillin/tazobactam,ceftazidime,cephfime,aztreonam,amikacin and ciprofloxacin were significantly higher than those of non-hypermutable strains.The multidrug resistance rates of hypermutable strains were also higher than those of non-hypermutable strains.Conclusion The hypermutable strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa sourced from chronic respiratory tract infections dominantly.The hypermutable strains were hyper-resistant and multidrug resistant to many antibiotics,so strengthened monitoring should be encouraged to control the prevalence of hypermutable Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains.

Objective: To explore the role of corticosterone in morphine-induced acute psychomotor activity and behavioral sensitization.Methods: 32 male SD rats were divided into four groups. Rats were intraperitoneally given saline, morphine, corticosterone and corticosterone/morphine separately. The horizontal locomotor activity was recorded for 60min by the computer trace system automatically. The locomotor activity was measured in every two days for total seven times. Results:The corticosterone/morphine group showed significant morphine-induced acute psychomotor effect comparing with the saline group(saline group 7175?676, corticosterone/morphine group 10365?503,P

Purpose:To explore the effect of anti-FasL on ADM resistance of K562/ADM cell subline and its possible mechanism.Methods:Control group,untreated with VER or anti-FasL ,VER-treated group,anti-FasL-treated group and anti-FasL +VER-treated group were set up. MTT、FCM、TUNEL、S-P immunechemistry and RT-PCR assay were used for detection.Results:Anti-FasL or VER treatment was capable of strengthening sensitivity of K562/ADM cells to ADM,ID 50 of anti-FasL and VER was 200ng/ml and 6?g/ml,respectively;DNA content of apoptosis from cycling analysis curve of K562/ADM cell was 7.42%,32.10%,49.29%,56.26%,respectively,and positive rate in situ apoptosis was 4.5%,36%,45%,58%,respectively,which represented a tendency of gradual increase. Anti-FasL was capable of effecting FasL and bcl-2 expression,but not Pgp.Conclusions:Anti-FasL alone or synergically with VER was capable of reversing ADM resistance of K562/ADM cell,which may be used as a novel reversor of multidrug resistance.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the value of uhrasonography for arthrocentesis in the hip and the advance of the femoral head/acetabulum as the puncture location in patients without sonographically obvious joint effusion.Methods Forty-three patients diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis or osteoarthritis were included,82 hip joints were involved and received ultrasounded-guided intra-articular injections.The puncture site was the joint space between the femoral head and the acetabulum.The times,depth,procedure time,side effects and complications of each injection were recorded.ResultsAll 82 hips could be explicitly displayed.The depths from the skin surface to the joint space were (3.4 ± 0.9)cm (left)and (3.1 ± 0.8)cm (right),respectively.Overall,100% of hip joints were punctured successfully,and 95.1% of them were succeeded with the first arthrocentesis.The procedure time was (287.9 ± 45.8) s.No side effects or complications were observed.ConclusionsThe sonographic technique could be used as a primary method of image guidance for performing hip arthrocentesis and the joint space between the femoral head and the acetabulum could be a choice of target location for the patients without joint effusion.

Objective Through comparision of Her-2 gene in invasive breast carcinoma tissues assayed by IHC, CISH and FISH respectively, to explore an optimal detective methods. MethodsIHC, CISH and FISH were used in detection for Her-2 gene of 100 cases, respectively.ResultsCISH identified no Her-2 gene amplification in IHC score negative rumors (6/6) and gene amplication in 7.1%(1/14) of IHC score (+) and in 32 % of IHC score (++) tumors(l6/50) and in 80 % of IHC score (+++) (24/80), Concordant rate between CISH and FISH was 100 %(20/20). ConclusionThere are advantage and disadvantage among IHC,CISH and FISH. CISH is an accurate and dependable methods and would be easy to apply for detection of Her-2 gene.

ObjectiveTo explore the sonographic features of gouty arthritis.MethodsThe sonographic features of gouty arthritis were summarized by retrospectively studying the sonogram of 19 joints of 5 patients.ResultsFive the first metatarsophalangeal joints,8 knees,2 ankles,2 elbows and 2 wrists were investigated.Out of 19 joints,17(89.4%) had double contour signs,a hyperechoic and irregular band over the superficial margin of the articular cartilage.Joint effusions were seen in 13 of 19 joints (68.4%).Multiple hyperreflective foci could be seen in the joint fluid,which were obvious by shaking the probe.In 19 joints,11 (57.9 %) had proliferation of the synovium identified,and proliferative synovium were revealed as hyperperfusion or hypoperfusion by color Doppler ultrasound.In one knee,the synovium proliferated obviously with involved area about 5 cm × 2 cm,and hyperechoic aggregates with acoustic shadow could be seen in it.Articular cartilage became irregularly thin and the hyperechoic outline of subchondral bone cortex became rough or even broke in 6 of 19 joint (31.6%).H omogeneous,hyperechoic aggregates with or without acoustic shadow in the soft tissue around the joint were seen in four joints (21.1 %).Three in these 4 joints exited bone cortex erosions adjacent to aggregates.ConclusionsGouty arthritis has some specific sonographic features,ultrasound maybe usefully discover this disease in early period.

Objective To compare the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and conventional ultrasound (CUS) in the localization and definition of different types of uterine myomas.Methods With real-time CEUS technique, 56 patients with uterine myomas proved by pathology were observed. The accuracy between CEUS and CUS in the localization and definition of different types of uterine myomas was retrospectively analyzed. Results The accordance rates of CEUS and CUS in the diagnosis of total uterine myomas, intramural myomas, submueous and subserous myomas were 94.6% (53/56) vs 73.2%(41/56),99.3%(31/32) vs 78.1%(25/32) and 91.6%(22/24) vs 66.7%(16/24),respectively,and in the definition of number and margin of myomas were 92.8 % (104/112) vs 80.30% (90/112) and 91.9 (103/112) vs 78.6 % (88/112). The accordance rates of CEUS and CUS in the diagnosis of typical uterine myomas were 95.8% (23/24) and 87.5% (21/24),and in the diagnosis of atypical uterine myomas were 93.8%(30/32) and 62.5% (20/32),which were different in statistics (P<0.05). Conclusions CEUS is better than CUS in revealing the number and margin of different types of uterine myomas. The accordance rates of CEUS were higher than those of CUS in the diagnosis of different types of uterine myomas and atypical uterine myomas. CEUS may be a new technique in the localization and definition of uterine myomas.
