Objective To study the effect of hypothermia on cerebral mitochondrial respiratory function and ultrastructure after traumatic brain injury(TBI). Methods Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to moderate brain injury by using lateral fluid-percussion(LFP)and randomly divided into sham operation group,normothermic TBI group(rectal temperature for 36-37℃)and hypothermic TBI group(rectal temperature for 31-32℃ lasting for two hours).The ipsilateral brains were dissected and homogenized brain tissues were extracted to obtain mitochondfia by density-centrifugation and speed-centrifugation at 2,24 hours and at days 3 and 7 after TBI.The mitochondrial uhrastructure was studied by electron microscope.The indices of respiratory control rate(RCR)and P/O ratio of mitochondrial respiratory function were measured after oxygen consumption was determined with a Clark-type electrode.Results The mitochondrial uhrastructure of normothermic TBI group was damaged severely while that of hypothermic TBI group kept relatively integrated.The RCR and P/O ratio were markedly decreased two hours after TBI and reached the lowest level at the 24th hour(P<0.01).At day 7,RCR kept at a lower level compared with sham operation group but P/O ratio recovered to normal.Change of RCR was similar in hypothermie TBI group and normothermic TBI group.However,RCR of the hypothermic TBI group was significantly higher than that of the normothermic TBI group within three days after TBI.In the meantime,P/O ratio recovered to normal three days after TBI. Conclusion Hypothermia can improve cerebral mitochondrial respiratory function and protect the mitochondrial structure after TBI.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for further improving negotiation mechanism of drug medical insurance in Chi-na. METHODS:Questionnaire investigation was conducted among the medical insurance agency and pharmaceutical company staff who participated in drug medical insurance negotiation in Jiangsu province,Jiangxi province,Qingdao,Chengdu. Their business fa-miliarity and recognition of the negotiating mechanism were also investigated. The descriptive analysis,independent sample t test and other methods were adopted to analyze the data statistically. RESULTS:A total of 70 questionnaires were distributed and 68 val-id questionnaires were collected with effective recovery rate of 97.14%. Respondents included 21 staff members of medical insur-ance agencies and 47 of pharmaceutical companies. In terms of business familiarity,the average score of respondents in all aspects was greater than 3(4 points system),the lowest score wasmanagement of the implementation of drug negotiation projects. There were statistical significances in scores of 3 items between 2 parties in the negotiation(P<0.05):basic principles of the drug negotiation process should be followednegotiation objectives in the substantive negotiation process total score of busi-ness familiarity. The scores of respondents in pharmaceutical companies were higher than those of health insurance agencies. In the recognition of the negotiating mechanism,average score of each survey item was ≥4(5 points system)in the recognition of the overall effect of the negotiation mechanism except forwhich is conducive to maintaining the price system of pharmaceutical com-panies. The average score of all aspects of preparation of the negotiations,substantive negotiation,implementation of the negotia-tion agreement and negotiation project's supervision and evaluation was >4 except forpatients taking drugs is quick and easy. There was no statistical significance between 2 types of respondents in all aspects of overall effect of the negotiation mechanism, preparation of the negotiations and negotiation project's supervision and evaluation(P>0.05). But in the recognition of the substan-tive negotiation,there was statistically significance between 2 types of respondents innegotiations between the two sides in an equal,cooperative,harmonious atmosphere(P<0.05). Healthcare agencies'respondents had higher scores than pharmaceutical companies'ones. And in the recognition of the implementation of the negotiation agreement,there was statistical significance be-tween 2 types of respondents in theafter the agreement entered into force,the medical insurance agency will be strictly in accor-dance with the agreementandfund pay to pharmaceutical companies timely and reasonable(P≤0.05). Healthcare agencies're-spondents have higher scores for than pharmaceutical companies'ones. CONCLUSIONS:The current drug medical insurance nego-tiation mechanism shows good overall effect and runs smoothly. But there are still some shortages,such as collected information the preparation stage is not sufficient;the procedures of patients taking the drug is complicated;negotiating parties do not have equal status;the fund is not paid to the pharmaceutical enterprise timely;evaluation is not perfect.
