Objective:To observe the changes of TLR4 and IL-6 expression in rats hippocampus CA1 region in remote ischemic postconditioning(RIP) and explore its significance.Methods: All the 72 male SD rats were divided into Sham group,Contrast group and RIP group randomly.Each group was divided into 4 time points:12h,24 h,48 h and 72 h group.There were 6 rats in each group.Use the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion model which was established with modified Longa method as the contrast group.The method of RIP was to Fasten rats Posterior limbs by a tourniquet for 30 min immediately,then relax them for 30 min, repeat 3 times.To observe the pathological variation of hippocampus CA1 region by HE dyeing;to test the expression of TLR4 and IL-6 by immunohistochemical staining.Results: Compared to contrast group, neuronal loss and swelling reduced significantly in RIP group.Compared to sham group, the TLR4 and IL-6 expression in contrast group and RIP group increased significantly ( P<0.05 ) .Compared to contrast group,the TLR4 and IL-6 expression in RIP group reduced significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion:RIP dose have protective effect on cerebral ischemia.The effect may be associated with the inhibition of TLR4 and IL-6 expression.

Translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP)is a small protein highly conserved in a variety of eukaryotic species.TCTP is overexpressed in various tumor cells and has been implicated in the regu-lation of cellular processes including apoptosis,DNA repair and drug resistance.By reviewing the recent pro-gress of TCTP research,TCTP is becoming an important regulator of DNA repair and a new molecular target for tumor therapy.

Objective To study the effect of Sandra Fucile oral stimulation on oral feeding readiness and ability of preterm infants.Methods Sixty-five premature infants were selected in the study.All of the premature infants were recruited randomly in convenience between Jul.and Dec.2012.For a randomized control principle,SPSS 13.0 was performed to achieve complete random design.Objects were divided into control group(receiving routine nursing) and intervention group(on the basis of routine nursing,receiving 15 minutes oral stimulation,1 time/day,for 10 days).Chinese version of Preterm Infant Oral Feeding Readiness Assessment scale(PIOFRA scale-CV) was used when intervention began,and 7 days,10 days,14 days after the start of the intervention.Results PIOFRA-CV scale score was statistically different at different time in both groups(F =169.062,P ＜0.001).The first day ratings were minimum in the 2 groups,after which with an upward trend over time.The control group and intervention group rated a statistically significant difference(F =5.538,P =0.022).Except for no difference on the first day and seventh day (t =1.650,P =0.204 ;t =0.817,P =0.369) between the 2 groups,the intervention group had a higher score than the control group (t =17.339,24.141,all P ＜0.001).Group and time had an interaction effect(F =1 1.561,P ＜0.001).The incidence of vomiting[42.4％ (14/33 cases) vs 34.4％ (11/32 cases)],infection [27.3％ (9/33 cases) vs 9.4％ (3/32 cases)],and gastro-oesophageal reflux[30.3％ (10/33 cases) vs 25.0％ (8/32 cases)] were not significantly different between the 2 groups(x2 =0.445,3.457,0.288,all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Saudra Fucile oral stimulation method can significantly promote the development of premature oral feeding ability on the 10 day after the intervention,and will not increase vomiting,gastroesophageal reflux,and infection.It is suitable for clinical application.

Objective To investigate the effect of atorvastatin and rosuvastatin on endothelial function in diabetics with coronary heart disease. Methods A total of 73 consecutive diabetics with coronary heart disease who were not receiving statins were randomized to receive atorvastatin 20 mg/d or rosuvastatin 10 mg/d. The levels of lipids, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP), monoxide nitrogen(NO), endothelin-1 (ET-1) and endothclium-dependent relaxing function(EDF) were assessed before and after 3 months of the treatment. Results The treatment with statins significantly improved endothelial function in diabetics with coronary heart disease. For both rosuvastatin group and atorvastatin group in pro-treatment versus post-treatment, EDF was higher[(5.2±2.4)% vs. (7.9±3.1)%, P=0.008; (5.0±2.8)% vs. (7.6±3.6)%, P=0.024, respectively], NO was also higher((46.6±14.5) μmmol/L vs. (73.3±18.5) μmmol/L; (51.7±14.0) μmmol/L vs. (79.8±16.0) μmmol/L,both P<0.001], ET-1 was lower[(108.2±29.6) pg/L vs. (77.5±26.4) pg/L, P =0.005;(117.1±34.5) pg/L vs. (80.7±28.2) pg/L, P= 0.003, respectively],and hs-CRP was lower[3.17(1.33～6.32) mg/Lvs. 1.39(0.81～2.58) mg/L, P=0.006; 3.43(1.51～7.02) mg/L vs. 1.63(0.69～3.11) mg/L, P = 0.001, respectively]. There were no differences in these between rosuvastatin group and atorvastatin group. Significant negative correlation existed between EDF and hs-CRP. Conclusions A 3 months treatment with either atorvastatin 20 mg/d or rosuvastatin 10 mg/d is effective in improving endothelial function in diabetics with coronary heart disease.

Objective To analyze the common causes leading to lung infection following renal transplantation and provide targeted preventive measures to reduce the incidence of lung infection.Methods The clinical data of 561 recipients who underwent renal transplantation from January 2006 to February 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.The recipients were divided into two groups:group Ⅰ,from January 2006 to December 2009 (n =416) ; group Ⅱ,from January 2010 to February 2011 (n =145).The causes possibly leading to lung infection which took place 3 days before the appearance of the clinical symptoms were offered by the patients who suffered lung infection of group Ⅰ.And then the causes were summarized and analyzed to formulate the specific and comprehensive measures to prevent the infection.Finally the measures were applied to recipients in group Ⅱ from January 2010.After applying the measures for 14 months,the incidence of lung infection in group Ⅱ was counted and compared with that in group Ⅰ to see the preventive effect.Results There were 58 cases of lung infection in group Ⅰ (58/416,13.9％) and 12 cases in group Ⅱ (12/145,8.3％). There was significant difference in the incidence of lung infection between two groups (x2 =4.0361,P＜0.05).All of the recipients with lung infection were hospitalized in six months after the transplantation.The causes leading to lung infection of 58 cases in group Ⅰ were as follows:6 cases due to being excessively tired,3 cases due to guest visiting,12 cases due to abrupt change of weather,9 cases due to exposure to public place,8 cases due to returning to hospital,6 cases due to close contact with children,5 cases due to close contact with animals,and the other 9 cases without specific causes found.Conclusion The incidence of lung infection following renal transplantation can be notably reduced by the application of targeted and concrete health propaganda education and preventive measures based on analysis on the specific causes of infection.

Objective To investigate the effect of hepatopoietin Cn(HPPCn) on liver stem cells.Methods In this study, WB-F344 cell line was used, and MTT and flow cytometry assay were conducted to determine cell proliferation and apoptosis.Transwell assay was used to test the migration of WB-F344 cells.A 2AAF-partial hepatectomy(PH) mouse model was used to observe the effect of HPPCn on liver stem cell proliferation in vivo.Results HPPCn enhanced WB-F344 cell proliferation and migration and activated the SphK1, Erk and Stat3 signal pathways.The analysis of the 2AAF-PH mouse model showed that oval cells in the experimental group far outnumbered those in control and the regeneration of the liver was improved post PH.Conclusion HPPCn can increase the liver stem cell proliferation and survival while promoting the regenenation of the liver by augmenting oval cell proliferation.

Objective To observe the effect of free muscle localization and ultrasound-guided injection of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) combined with rehabilitation training on lower limb spasm of cerebral palsy children.Methods Sixty-one cerebral palsy children with lower limb spasticity were randomly divided into a manual localizing group (31 cases) and an ultrasound-guided group (30 cases).The children of both groups underwent BTX-A injection at adductors,hamstrings and calf triceps.The former group was injected with bare hands,while the latter was injected under the guidance of ultrasound.Both groups were administered with rehabilitation training from the 3rd day onwards after injection.Before and 12 weeks after the injection,the modified Ashworth scale (MAS) and gross motor function scale (GMFM) were used to evaluate the lower limb spasticity and function in 2 groups.Results Before the injection,there was no significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of MAS and GMFM scores (P ＞ 0.05).However,12 weeks after the injection,the average MAS scores of the two groups decreased,and that of the ultrasound-guided injection group (1.43 ±0.50) was significantly lower than that of the manual localizing group (1.77 ± 0.56).After the injection,the average GMFM scores of both groups increased,and that of the ultrasound-guided injection group was significantly higher than the manual localizing group (67.10 ± 11.25).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided injection of BTX-A with intensive rehabilitation training can significantly reduce the lower limb spasticity in children with cerebral palsy,and increase their motion of joint and motor function,and improve their posture and gait.

Objective To observe the effect of ultrasound-guided injection of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) combined with orthosis training for the treatment of lower limb spasticity for children with cerebral palsy.Methods Fifty-four patients with spastic cerebral palsy were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group using a random number table.Patients in the control group were given conventional rehabilitation training,while those in the observation group were additionally given ultrasound-guided BTX-A injection,followed by daily knee-ankle-foot orthosis rehabilitation training 24 h after the injection.Before and 6 weeks after treatment the lower limb function of the 2 groups was evaluated using the modified Ashworth scale (MAS) and the gross motor function measure (GMFM).Adductor angles,popliteal angles and motor ranges of the ankle joint were also measured and compared.Results After 6 weeks the average MAS scores were lower than before treatment in both observation[(1.26±0.63) vs (3.07±0.68)] and control group [(2.56±0.71) vs (2.89±0.64).And in both groups the average GMFM scores,adductor angles and popliteal angles,as well as range of motion of the ankle were all much better than before treatment.The observation group,however,improved significantly more than the control group(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided injection of BTX-A can effectively alleviate spasticity of lower extremity for children with cerebral palsy with accurate positioning,obvious curative effect and less adverse reactions.Knee-ankle-foot orthosis rehabilitation training after the injection can further alleviate spasticity and improve the motor function of the limbs.
