BACKGROUND: There are many methods for studying the somatotype of adults or children. Among them, Heath-Carter somatotype method is a comprehensive evaluation method. Using this method, 10 items of anthropometric indicators are selected and 3 factors which could be gotten to represent relative content of body fat, growth degree of skeletal muscle and relative height and thinness of body (relative line degree), are calculated, respectively.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the rules and characteristics of somatotype development in Dong students from Hunan province, so as to supplement the essential data for physical anthropology.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A cross-sectional investigation was performed at the Department of Biological Engineering, Huaihua College of Hunan Province in May 2006.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 989 Dong students (boys 492, girls 497), aged 7 to 17 years, were selected from the primary schools or middle schools of Tongdao Dong Nationality Autonomous Country in Hunan province and recruited into the present study. All the selected students were verified healthy by physical examinations at school. The subjects were divided into two groups by gender, and each group was divided into 11 subgroups according to the age.METHODS: By Heath-Carter somatotype method, 10 anthropological indexes were measured. Each indicator was measured twice and the average value was selected. The above-mentioned data were input into the computer to form a database. The following indicators were calculated in turn: 3 factors on somatotype, coordinate values of X and Y on somatotype chart, mean of dimensional distances from the average somatotype to all somatotypes in the sample, difference between the two somatotypes in three-dimensional space and frequency distribution of each somatotype.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Height, body mass, upper arm circumference, calf circumference, intracondylar diameters of humerus and femur, skinfold of brachial triceps, subscapular skinfold, skinfold of anterosuperior iliac spine, skinfold of gastrocnemius muscle.RESULTS: All 989 students were included in the final analysis. The dynamic range of the average value of endomorphic factor was 1.2-1.9 and 1.3-4.1, and that of mesomorphic factor was 4.2-5.1 and 1.9-3.0, and that of ectomorphic factor was 2.8-3.7 and 2.6-3.9 for the boys and the girls, respectively. Statistical analysis revealed that there was significant difference in the average value of mesomorphic factor by gender in each age (P＜0.05-0.01). The average endomorphic factor of the girls was obviously higher than that of the boys in each age (P＜0.01) except 7 to 11 years old. The average ectomorphic factor of the girls was higher than that of the boys before 13 years old and it was contrary after 13 years old. There was significant difference of average ectomorphic factor between beys and girls only in 9,11 and 15 to 17 years old (P＜0.05-0.01). The results of t-test showed that there was significant difference for the somatotypes by gender in each age (P＜0.05-0.01). The distribution of girl somatotype demonstrated a dynamic process from 7 to 17 years old, which demonstrated balanced mesomorphy-ectomorphy changed to balanced ecdomorphy, ectomorphy-ectomorphy, balanced endomorphy-ectomorphy and balanced endomorphy in turn. But distribution of boy somatotype was relatively stable, and average somatotype was mesomorphy. Cluster analysis revealed that there was obvious difference of congenital somatotype between Dong students and other 9 populations. During puberty, the somatotype feature of Dong boys was more close to that of Korean boys (SAD=0.37), but which was more far to that of Han boys in the city (SAD=2.15). The somatotype feature of Dong girls was more close to that of Zhuang girls (SAD=0.71), but which was more far to that of Korean girls (SAD=2.35) and Miao girls (SAD=2.10).CONCLUSION: The congenital somatotype of Dong students has its unique characteristics. There is obvious difference in somatotype characteristics between boys and girls.

Purpose To study on the antithrombotic effect of polysaccharide of Auricularia auriculajudae.Methods The method of hot water extraction for extracting polysaccharide from Auricularia auriculajudae was used. The antithrombotic effect was studied by animal experiments.The length and the weight of arterial thrombosis were determined. Characteristic thrombus formation time (CTFT), and thrombus formation time (TFT),the rate of platelet adhesion and the blood viscosity were determined also.Results As compared with the normal saline group,polysaccharide of Auricularia auriculajudae(ig) remarkedly prolonged CTFT and TFT.The length of thrombus was shortened. Thrombus wet weight, thrombus dry weight,and blood viscosity were decreased, yet had no significant influence on the rate of platelet adhesion.Conclusion Polysaccharides of Auricularia auriculajudae can significantly inhitit the formation of thrombus.

Elements, including experimental personnel, facili-ties, equipment, apparatus, technology and skills, are essential to carrying out pre-clinical reproductive toxicity research. As to a study , authenticity , normativity , scientificity and innovativeness guarantee the success. These four elements are independent of each other,but mutually supported. Authenticity and scientificity are the footstone and soul, respectively, for drug non-clinical re-productive toxicity research. Normativity guarantees authenticity and scientificity, and innovativeness relies on authenticity. Nor-mativity and scientificity ensure the reliability and dynamics of experimental results which perhaps is an effective way accessing innovation.

Objective To study the etiology,diagnosis,treatment and prophylaxis strategy of the urogenital fistula caused by gynecological and obstetrical surgery.Methods Data of 64 cases with urogenital fistula,who were admitted into second hospital of Tianjin medical university and Tianjin first central hospital from January 1992 to December 2012,were analyzed retrospectively.In Tianjin first central hospital,those cases include vesicovaginal fistula in 10,ureterovaginal fistula in 7 and urethro-vaginal fistula in one case.In second hospital of Tianjin medical university,those cases include vesicovaginal fistula in 26,ureterovaginal fistula in 18,urethro-vaginal fistula in 1 and ureterouterine fistula in one case.The median age was 42 years old (range 21-53).The history of diseased ranged from 16 days to 30 years.All patients were diagnosed by methylene blue test,cystoscopy,ureteroscopy,intravenous urography,ultrasound,computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance urography (MRU).The primary fistula was diagnosed in 50 cases and the recurrence was found in 14 cases.Single fistula existed in 56 cases and multiple fistulas were found in 8 cases.In 36 patients with vesicovaginal fistula,transabdominal repair of vesicovaginal fistula (n =20),transpubic surgery (n=10) and transvaginal surgery (n=6) were chosen.In 25 patients with ureterovaginal fistula,ureterocystostomy (n =10),ureterotomy with holmium laser (n =8),ureteral stent placement (n =6) and ureteral stricture excision and bladder-psoas suspension (n=1) were used.Two patients with urethro-vaginal fistulae were cured by the Latzko technique.One patient had uretero-uterine fistula and cured by ureteral stricture excision,ureterocystostomy and bladder-psoas suspension.Results Fifty-five(86％) cases were cured by single-stage surgical treatment and nine patients experienced more than two times of surgical treatment.The incipient patients have a higher success rate of first surgery than recurrent patients (92％ vs.64％,P＜0.05).Single and multiple fistulas have no significant difference about the surgical successive rate (88％ vs.75％,P＞0.05).In cases with vesicovaginal fistula,the success rate of vaginal and abdominal approaches are the same 85％ (P＞0.05).In cases with ureterovaginal fistula,abdominal and endoscopic approaches were 100％ and 85％,respectively (P＞0.05).The mean duration of follow was 20 months (range 3-48).There was no recurrence during follow-up.Conclusions Urogenital fistula caused by gynecological and obstetrical operation can be cured by surgery.Recurrent fistula is a challenge for diagnose and treatment,preoperative need reasonable operation mode to improve the success rate of operation.Both open surgery and endourology approaches are effective treatment options in management the urogenital fistula.

Aim To study the oxygen free radical scavenging activities and antilipid peroxidation of nicotinic acid. Methods High lipid models of quail were induced by high fat diet. Five groups were divided, namely control group, high lipid group, NA group(150 mg?kg-1 and 75 mg?kg-1), and Vit E group (100 mg?kg-1). The contents of TC,TG,MDA and activities of SOD were examined for 3 times in the plasma and liver after administering NA for 9 weeks. Results The results showed the increase of TC,TG and MDA contents and decrease of SOD activities in high lipid groups by 3 weeks high fat diet. After administering NA for 3 weeks, NA reduced TC,TG and MDA contents and increased SOD activities, revealing the relationship to dose-dependence. Conclusion NA is most likely to possess the capabilities of anti-oxygen free radicals and anti-lipoperoxidation to hyperlipodemia quail.

Objective To investigate the application of selective hepatopetal blood occlusion techniques in anatomic hepatectomy.Methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 259 patients with hepatolithiasis or liver tumor undergoing anatomic hepatectomy under selective hepatopetal blood occlusion from January 2006 to December 2009.Results Totally,183 cases with hepatolithiasis and 76 cases with liver tumor underwent anatomic hepatectomy under selective hepatopetal blood occlusion.The average intra-operation blood loss was 210 mL(120-1 600 mL);post-operation incidence of complications and the rate of residual stones was 10.9% and 4.2%,respectively.Thre was no operative death in this series.The intrahepatic recurrence and metastasis rate of liver tumor was 23.6% and the median recurrence was 16.3 months.Conclusions The use of a appropriate selective hepatopetal blood occlusion during anatomic hepatectomy for hepatolithiasis and liver tumors is an effective measure to reduce surgical complications and improve outcome.

Objective To study the influence of the modification of the special neutralizing epitopes of the HIV-1 envelope (Env) on its assembly of functional pseudovirus and neutralizing activity. Methods Site-directed mutations were performed using cycling mutagenesis and selection of mutants with Dpn I . With this method, the 2G12 and 2F5 neutralizing epitopes were integrated into Env of subtype BC which was without the two epitopes, then the capability of forming pseudovirus and the neutralizing activity against 2G12 and 2F5 were compared with pre-modified Env. Results The special Env neutralizing epitopes of five HIV pseudovirus (BC02, BC03, BC04, BC05 and BC12) were modified. Among the five pseudovirus, BC04 and BC12 pseudovirus can't be formed after the 2G12 epitope was modified, whilst the BC02, BC03 and BC05 pseudovirus can be formed after the 2G12 and 2F5 epitopes were added, and there was no variation of the pseudovirus titer; On the aspect of neutralizing activity, BG03 pseudovirus against 2G12 and 2F5 was enhanced, BC02 and BC05 pseudovirus against 2F5 was enhanced while which against 2G12 was not changed. Conclusion The modification of 2G12 epitope influences the forming of pseudovirus and the addition of neutralizing epitopes can enhance the neutralizing activity of pseudovirus, which offers new approach for the optimization of HIV immunogen.
