BACKGROUND: Alendronate has been recently used for treating osteoporosis by inhibiting the activity of osteoclasts, but further clinical observation is necessary to compare its therapeutic effect with exclusive use of calcium supplement.OBJECTIVE: To observe the therapeutic effect of oral alendronate (tianke tablet) on the clinical symptoms and bone mineral density (BMD) of middle-aged and elderly patients for comparison with calcium gluconate.DESIGN: A self-controlled study and controlled trial with concurrent patients.SETTING: Department of Orthopedics, Shenzhen Hospital, Peking UniversityPARTICIPANTS: Sixty-eight middle-aged and elderly patients with osteoporosis were admitted in the Department of Orthopedics, Shenzhen Hospital of Peking University between July 1999 and July 2000. From these patients 62 at the age over 45 years without secondary osteoporosis were selected for this study, who were randomly divided into oral alendronate group (n=32) and oral calcium gluconate group (n=30).INTERVENTIONS: On the basis of comprehensive therapies, the patients in the alendronate group were given 10 mg alendronate daily and those in calcium gluconate group had 20 mL oral calcium gluconate solution (containing 100 mg calcium gluconate, equivalent to 9 mg calcium in every 10 mL) three times daily for three months. According to bodily pain relief, occurrence of new fracture and improvement in BMD, the therapeutic effect was assessed in three grades.RESULTS: Thirty patients in the alendronate group and 26 in the calcium gluconate group completed the study. Alendronate treatment for 3months significantly increased BMD of the patients [(0.716±0.082) g/cm2in comparison with that before treatment [(0.667±0.083) g/cm2, t= 2.473,P ＜ 0.01], whereas the BMD underwent no obvious changes after treatment with calcium gluconate [(0.671±0.081) g/cm2 before vs (0.680±0.073) g/cm2after treatment, t=1.812, P ＞ 0.05]. Significant difference in BMD after treatment was noted between the two groups (t=2.384, P ＜ 0.01). The effective rate was significantly higher in alendronate group than in calcium gluconate group (X2=14.9, P=0.005), but 7 patients complained of abdominal discomfort in the former group and the patients in calcium gluconate group reported no adverse effects.CONCLUSION: Alendronate can inhibit bone absorption, promote the recovery of bone matrix, and increase the bone mass, producing better effect than exclusive use of calcium gluconate oral solution in treatment of the osteoporosis in the middle-aged and the elderly.

Objective To investigate the changes of intestinal blood flow and motility and their effects on intestinal mucosa barrier in rats with acute cerebral ischemia. Methods 64 male Wistar rats were assigned randomly into cerebral ischemia group (n=32) and control group (n=32).The two groups were divided into four subgroups according to timepoints of 6 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h after operation (8 rats for each subgroup).The intestinal mucosa blood flow,intestinal transmit index and endotoxin level in porlal vein were detected.The displacement ratio of E.coli was marked and counted with fluorescent microscope in tissue homogenate from organs. Results The intestinal blood flow in cerebral ischemia group at 6 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h after operation [(34.5±3.2)PU,(22.7±1.9)PU,(26.2±4.3) PU and (30.5± 4.1) PU] were significantly lower than control group[(46.8 ±5.4) PU,(50.1±3.6) PU,(45.4±4.1) PU and (48.7±7.3) PU] (t=2.650,2.875,2.639 and 2.507,all P＜0.05).The intestinal transmit index in cerebral ischemia group at 6 h,12 h,24 h and 48h after operation[(0.59±0.07),(0.48±0.06),(0.50±0.08)and (0.57±0.04)] were decreaesd as compared with control group [(0.73±0.04),(0.75=0.02),(0.74±0.06) and (0.76±0.03)] (t=2.409,2.758,2.649 and 2.807,all P＜0.05). The levels of endotoxin in cerebral ischemia group started to increase at 6 h and arrived to peak at 24 h,and the levels at four timepoints were (0.382 ± 0.014) Eu/ml, (0.466 ± 0.018) Eu/ml,(0.478 ± 0.029) Eu/ml and (0.412±0.036)Eu/ml,respectively,that were higher than those in control group[(0.102±0.007)Eu/ml,(0.114±0.021)Eu/ml,(0.112±0.018)Eu/ml and (0.108±0.011)Eu/ml] (all P＜0.05).The total E.coli detection rates in multiple organs in cerebral ischemia group (11.4％,18.8 ％,25.0％and 12.5％) were higher than in control group (2.1％,4.2％,2.1％ and 0.0％) at four rime points (all P＜0.05). The level of endotoxin was negatively related with the intestinal blood flow and intestinal transmit index( r =- 0.861 and - 0.796,both P＜ 0.05). Conclusions The higher intestinal mucosa blood flow and intestinal motility play important roles in the increase of intestinal mucosa permeability at early stage after acute cerebral ischemia.

Objective To investigate children' s understanding of food,nutrition and its relation to health.Methods Participants were interviewed individually,various experimental tasks were used to explore 5-9 year old children' s spontaneous classification of familiar food and their understanding of food balance.Results Five-year-old children rely more than elders on physical cues.There was significant age difference of their criterion of classification among physical (H_((2))=12.929,P ＜ 0.01),conventional (H_((2))=5.540,P=0.063)land processing criterion(H_((2))=6.076,P＜ 0.05).There was significant SES difference of their choices(X_((1))~2=5.857,P=0.016 ; X_((1))~2=4.510,P=0.034 in two different tasks).Higher SES children tended to choose balanced food(percentage of choosing balanced food in higher SES group was 75.0% ,93.8% ;45.2% ,74.2% in lower SES group).Conclusion The criterion children used is related to their cognitive development and experience.As they become older,more and more children realize the nutritional value of foods.There were a significant age difference in nutrition-balanced food choice ,and children's social economic status influence their performance.
