To investigate the effects of ligustrazine injection on type I collagen, matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) expressions in human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs) cultured in high glucose conditions.

At present,there are many problems in the cultivation for medical students including lack of humanistic education,insufficient healthy personality shaping and innovation education.We made explorations in aspects of updating education concept,enhancing faculty construction,emphasizing basic course teaching and promoting students' abilities so as to cultivate the comprehensive quality of students majored in medical imaging (ultrasonic medicine).

Objective To investigate the effects of Ligustrazine on TNF-α-induced TGF-β and CTGF expression in human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs). Methods HPMCs were isolated from human omenta by trypsin di-gestion. Then, the subcultured HPMCs were divided into control group, TNF-α-induced (1 μg/L) group and TNF-α-induced plus low-, medium-and high-dose Ligustrazine (10, 20 and 40 mg/L Ligustrazine respectively) groups. The viability of HPMCs was measured by MTT assay. RT-PCR was used to detect the expressions of TGF-β1 and CTGF mRNAs in HPMCs. TGF-β1 and CTGF in supernatants were measured by ELISA. Cell protein concentration was measured by trace bicinchoninic acid (BCA) method to validate the ELISA assay results. Results Ligustrazine significantly decreases TNF-α-induced TGF-β1 and CTGF expression in a dose-dependent manner at both protein and gene levels ( P < 0. 05 ). In addition, medium-and high-dose Ligustrazine injection significantly ameliorates the viability of HPMCs inhibited by TNF-α ( P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion Ligustrazine inhibits expressions of TGF-β and CTGF of HPMCs in an inflammatory conditions.

Objective To compare the objective cure rate and perioperative complications 0f ten-sion free vaginal tape(TVT)and laparoscopic Burch for the treatment of fernale stress urinarv inconti-nence. Methods Literature search was conducted for all randomized control trials(RCTs)between 1994 and 2006,using MEDLINE,EMBASE with the keyword"tension free vaginal tape","colpo-suspension","stress urinary incontinence",then a second search was performed with the following keywords:[(tension free vaginal tape),AND(colposuspension),OR(Burch)],AND stress urinary incontinence].Gray literature was search in The Cochrane central register of controlled trials、NRR (National Research Register)、CCT(clinical controlled trials),ISTP,ISI proceedings,OCLC First-search proceedings,(CACP),GreyNet(http://www.greynet.org/)、DARE(Database of Abstract:s of Reviews of Effects)、SIGLE(System for Information on Grey Literature in Europc),official website of ICS.Meta-analysis was performed with RevMan software 4.2. Results right studies were included comparing objective cure rate and perioperative complications of TVT and LB.Overall objective cure rates were 233/259 for TVT and 189/247 for Burch respectively.TVT shared higher objective cure (RR 1.19,95%CI 1.10-1.29,P<0.01)and lower perioperative complications(RR 0.48,95%CI 0.32-0.71,P<0.05). Conclusions The available evidence indicates that TVT is an effective treat-ment for stress urinary incontinence with higher objective cure rate and 10wer perioperative complica-tions compared with LB.

The effect of Vitamin E on the metabolism of selenium in weaning Wistar rats raised with low selenium and low vitamin E Keshan disease diet and with the basal diet supplemented with selenium and/or a-tocopherol acetate was investigated. The results showed that:(1)On the same level of selenium in the diets, a-tocopherol supplemented to the diets might increase the selenium level of liver. No significant effect was found in other organs.(2)Whether the selenium was deficient in the diet or not, the GSHPx activities in blood, heart and liver of vitamin E deficient animals were lower than that of animals supplemented with vitamin E.(3)Supplementation of vitamin E to the diet decreased the selenium excretion in urine, and increased the selenium retention in tissues both in selenium deficient group and in selenium supplemented group.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of ilium grafting combined with Duhuojishengtang on the delay fracture healing and explore the effect on hemorheology. Methods Eighty patients with delayed fracture healing were randomly divided into two groups. Forty patients in control group were treated by ilium grafting and 40 patients in observation group were treated by ilium grafting combined with Duhuojishengtang. The clinical effect was observed after treatment and indexes of hemorheology were recorded after different treatment time. Results The cure rate of observation group was 62.5%, which was significantly higher than that of control group 35.0%, the effective rate of observation group was 92.5%, which was significantly higher than that of control group 72.5% (P<0.01) . There were no significant differences between two groups in indexes of hemorheology after ilium grafting (P>0.05) . After the first, second, third course, the indexes of hemorheology of observation group were better than those of control group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05) . Conclusions Ilium grafting com-bined with duhuojishengtang can improve the indexes of hemorheology, improve the cure and effective rate and also has high security. It has high clinical value and worth of popularization and application.

In this paper, the importance of using advanced medical equipment to check treatment was ana-lyzed, and then pointed out that nowadays there were the following problems: the medical staff had excessive de-pendence on medical equipment; medical equipment inspection treatment of irrationality; medical equipment in-spection treatment with humanity was not enough; medical equipment management of dereliction of duty. Put for-ward to strengthen medical personnel professional moral education;to strengthen the medical students' ethical edu-cation;regular hospital manage concept;improve the cognitive level of medical staff of medical equipment.

In this work, some interference in the assay of vitamin E in liver and serum was studied and the method was improved.The sample must be protected from oxidative attack. The interference of high vitamin A content in liver could be removed by H2SO4. The amount of KOH for saponification must be in keeping with the amount of sample assayed both in synthetic a-tocopherol and in biological material by fluorometry. A linear correlation of the fluorescence and the vitamin E content was obtained when 0.5ml of 10 N KOH was used for the saponification of 0.5-100?g of ?-tocopheryl acetate.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of KaVo DIAGNOdent(DD)by comparing the diagnostic results of visual examination(VE)and stereomicroscope.Methods:The occlusal surface of 68 extracted teeth were examined by DD and VE,confirmed the examining points and marked,then cut these teeth along the markers.The results of stereomicroscope were classified into D0,D1,2,D3,4 according to the occlusal caries' depth,and recognized as gold standard.The difference of sensitivity,specificity between VE and DD,and their coherence were analyzed.Results:Sensitivity of DD,in D3,4 level of occlusal caries,was the highest.Compared to the results of stereomicroscope,the accuracy of DD and VE was the highest in D3,4 level.The coherence of DD and VE was low in all levels.Conclusion:The present cut-off point of DD affects the assessment of DD diagnostic result.Future study about key points of diagnosis of DD can widen its use in clinic.

[Methods]To collect and analyse the theory of HE's experience of herb pairs in treating purpura nephritis by studying from her for a long time and one medical record. [Results]Professor HE Lingzhi believes that the disease needs stage therapeutics and it is caused by pathogen wind pyretic pathogenic factor and poisonous evil in the stag of onset. Deficiency of both qi and yin in remission period. Syndrome of blood stasis consistently throughout purpura nephritis. Pro. HE treats purpura nephritis by pairing drugs,such as schizonepetae and honeysuckle, caulis sinomenii and saposhnikovia divaricata, astragalus membranaceus and eclipta alba, the root of red-rooted salvia and puccoon. [Conclusion] Professor HE's clinical experience in treating purpura nephritis from pairing drugs is well worth learning for it always gets outstanding effect.
