Journal of Third Military Medical University 2003;0(10):-
Objective To investigate the effects of pulsed electromagnetic fields(PEMF)on the bone mineral density(BMD)and serum level of transforming growth factor-beta 1(TGF-?1)in the disuse osteoporosis(DOP)rats.Methods Eighty 4-month-old female SD rats were randomly divided into 4 matched groups according to their weight:control group(INT group),DOP group,calcitonin group(CT group)and PEMF group.Rats in INT group were raised with the average amount of food consumed by the DOP rats.Right hindlimbs of rats in DOP,CT and PEMF groups were immobilized by tibia-tail fixation to establish DOP model as Zarzhevsky described.Rats in CT group were injected with calcitonin(2 IU/kg,i.p,once a day),and rats in group PEMF were irradiated with PEMF(8 Gs,15 Hz,a pulse time of 8 ms)immediately after operation.The rats(5 animals per time of each group)were killed at 1,2,4 and 8 weeks after operation and their right hindlimbs were resected.The BMD and serum TGF-?1 concentration were measured with a dual energy X-ray bone densitometer and ELISA respectively.Results Significant difference was observed in the femur proximal BMD between rats with right hindlimb immobilization(DOP group)and INT group 2 weeks later(P

Chinese Journal of Immunology 1985;0(03):-
Objective:To uncover the molecules and signal transduction underlying apoptosis in lymphocytes in old rats.Methods:The rats were grouped into three of old rats control,young rats control,EF-treated group,and studied the gene expression in genome-wide scale with genechip.Results:Compared to young rats control,pro-apoptotic genes were up-regulated and anti-apoptotic genes were down-regulated in old rats.And pro-proliferation genes were down-regulated,the anti-proliferation genes were regulated reversely.Furthermore,a number of genes involved in signal transduction in immune activation and immune response showed lower expression level.But in EF-treated group,pro-apoptotic genes such as Caspase1、Caspase2、Caspase3、Caspase6、CalpainⅡ、Cathepsin S、Dnase ?、PKCdelta,and anti-proliferation genes including Rb were predominantly down-regulated.Anti-apoptotic genes such as Cathepsin B、Mtal、NF-kappa B、Notch,and pro-proliferation genes including c-Fos、c-Myc、c-Jun、PCNA、A-raf;CyclinG-associated kinase were regulated reversely.Especially many genes mediating apoptosis signal including CD2、CD3、CD5、TCR、IL-2、IL-2R(CD25)、CD28、CTLA4 were up-regulated.Conclusion:By a novel mean including up-regulation of anti-apoptotic and down-regulation of pro-apoptotic gene expression,up-regulation of pro-proliration and down-regulation of anti-proliferation gene expression,the normal lymphocyte function in old rats was reconstructed.Additionally EF can coordinate TCR/CD3、CD28、CTLA4、TGF?、IL-2R-mediated signal to reach its anti-apoptotic effects on lyphocytes in old rats.

Objective To identify the core interventions preliminarily performed by pediatric nurses for hospitalized children. Methods Based on Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC), the data of survey related to the factors of representation and frequency derived from the definition of Core Nursing Interventions were collected from 59 pediatric senior nurses above the 3rd clinical ladder, working in one of Shanghai university affiliated and tertiary children hospitals. The data was analyzed by L type of Metric Diagram. The intervention with product of two factors above 12 was selected as the core intervention. Results A total of 109 interventions were selected as core interventions on pediatric nursing from 497 interventions of NIC. The top 3 domains in quantity of interventions were physiological complex domain (36 items), physiological basic domain (26 items) and health system domain (19 items). The domain with the highest score (16.79 ± 3.42) was safety domain, followed by physiological complex domain (16.19 ± 2.98), while domain with the lowest score (13.62±2.05) was family domain. Conclusions The initial and systematic pediatric nursing core interventions were identified based on NIC and definition of core intervention. Part of core interventions reflects the characteristics of pediatric nursing practice, but more is requested to reflect the pediatric-specific care related to family-center and age-appropriated concepts. Some of inefficient interventions remind nursing administers further reflect thinking, especially on human resource management.

The aim of this study was to investigate if there are abnormal fibroblasts derived from the skin surrounding keloids in order to have a better understanding for keloid progression. All the samples were used for cell culture. Flow cytometry was used to compare the apoptotic rate of fibroblasts derived from keloid and its surrounding skin, when it was cultured in serum-deprived medium for 24 hours or was induced by Fas antibody. After cultured in serum-deprived medium for 24 hours, the apoptotic rate of fibroblasts derived from the surrounding skin of keloid increased to an amount between that of normal skin and keloids. The apoptotic rate of normal skin fibroblasts increased more than that of keloids. Moreover, when induced by Fas antibody, the apoptotic rate of fibroblasts derived from the surrounding skin increased not so high as that of normal skin(P0. 05). Therefore, at least there are some fibroblasts in the surrounding skin of keloids, in which apoptosis can not be induced as in normal skin.

Objective To evaluate the uncertainty of determination of copper in water by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) according to Evaluation and Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement.Methods Precision of the instrument,uncertainty of the certified values of standard reference materials used in the measurement and uncertainty arising from the preparation of various chemical solutions involved in the measurements were considered as the main sources of the combined uncertainty.Components of uncertainty and the combined uncertainty were deduced and calculated.We can obtain the evaluation of uncertainty of copper in water by FAAS.Results The concentration of copper in water was 0.55 mg/L calculated according to mathematical model established in the present study,combined standard uncertainty was 0.011 mg/L,expanded uncertainty was 0.02 mg/L,and the expression of the uncertainty was (0.55?0.02)mg/L.Conclusion This method can be used for evaluation of uncertainty of determination of copper in water by FAAS.

Objective To investigate the changes of plasma cytokines and myocardial enzymes in different doses of fentanyl in patients undergoing valve replacement under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and evaluate its anti-inflammatory and myocardial protective effects.Methods Thirty ASAⅡ-Ⅲ patients undergoing elective valve replacement under CPB were studied. We excluded patients having infection, abnormal immunological function of receiving steroid or immune- modulatory drugs. The patients were premedicated with intramuscular phenobarbital 0.1 g and scopolamine 0.3 mg. Anesthesia was induced with midazolam modulate 0.1 mg ?kg-1 , fentanyl 10 ?g?kg-1 and vecuronium 0.1 mg?kg-1 and maintained with continuous infusion of fentanyl and intermittent i.v. boluses of midazolam and vecuronium. The total dose of fentanyl amounted to 30, 60 and 100 ?g?kg-1 (group 1, 2 and 3, n = 10) and was infused before CPB was started. MAP, CVP, HR, ECG, SpO2, PETCO2 and naso-pharyngeal and rectal temperature were continuously monitored during operation. Blood samples were taken before anesthesia (T1 ,baseline) , before CPB (T2 ) , 30 min and 2 h after release of aortic cross-clamping (T3 , T4 ) and 24 h after operation (T5 ) for determination of plasma levels of TNF-?, IL-6, IL-10 and creatine kinase (CK) and CK-MB activity.Results The three groups were comparable with respect to age, body weight, aortic cross-clamping time, CPB time and duration of operation. The plasma levels of TNF-?, IL-6, IL-10, CK and CK-MB activities were significantly increased after CPB compared to baseline (T1) (P

Diffuse sclerosing variant papillary thyroid carcinoma,one of the variants of papillary thyroid carcinoma,nearly account for 0.7% to 6.6% of papillary thyroid carcinoma.It is an aggressive tumor that shows higher rates of recurrence,metastasis and persistent disease compares to classic papillary thyroid carcinoma,thus diffuse sclerosing variant papillary thyroid carcinoma needs stricter and more exhaustive operation.Since the incidence of diffuse sclerosing variant papillary thyroid carcinoma is low,many physicians lack of understanding of the disease,it's often missed diagnosis or misdiagnosed.Consequently.In order to let physicians understand more about diffuse sclerosing variant papillary thyroid carcinoma,this paper will elaborate the epidemiology,clinic and pathology features of it.
