1.Caveolae-caveolin and associated signaling molecules
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(04):-
Caveolae, specialized vesicular invaginations of the plasma membrane ,have attracted increasing attentions to those who are studing siginal transduction .Many proteins involved in signal transduction have been found enriched in these microdomains.Caveolins,as marker proteins of caveolae,form a scaffold onto which many classes of signaling molecules can assemble at steady state or after ligand-induced activiton .In addition to concentrating these signal transducers within a distinct region of the plasma membrane ,caveolin binding may functionally regulate the activation state of caveolae-associated signaling molecules.Thus,an emerging notion is that caveolae are signaling processing centers which orchestrate signaling events at the cell surface that influence cell function .

BACKGROUND:Diabetes mel itus can give rise to bone metabolic disorders in patients, resulting in the occurrence of osteoporosis and low traumatic fractures. However, the pathogenesis mechanism remains unclear. OBJECTIVE:To review the current research progress in the bone metabolic disorders resulting from diabetes mel itus, and to provide theoretical basis of the prevention and treatment of diabetic osteopathy. METHODS:A computer-based online search was conducted in Pubmed database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/) from January 2000 to December 2013. Articles focusing on diabetes mel itus regulating bone metabolism were col ected using the key words of“diabetes mel itus;bone”in English. High-quality relevant studies were included, while repetitions and unidirectional studies were excluded.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 6 979 articles were obtained initial y, and after screening procedures 58 literatures were selectively included in this review. Although type 1 and type 2 diabetes mel itus exert different effects on the bone mineral density, they ultimately result in osteoporosis and low traumatic fractures. It is widely believed that the pathogenesis may be that high glucose breaks the balance between bone formation and bone absorption, so that bone absorption is greater than bone formation. The number of the osteoclasts is increased, while the cytokines of promoting osteogenesis are restrained. As a consequence, those result in low bone mineral density, brittle bone and high incidence of fracture.

The goal of this work is to understand the difference between vertical structure and horizontal structure on data management. We take adverse event report as an example to find out the relationship between the storage space and the factors related to the trail. From the study we find out the difference of storage space between horizontal structure and vertical structure goes up with the increase of the storage space of each adverse event record and the number of adverse event allowed to record in the horizontal structure and goes down with the increase of the happening rate and the average times of the adverse event. When using the most widely used study design, vertical structure always takes less storage space than the horizontal structure. This vertical structure database is more suitable for the data management than the horizontal structure database.

BACKGROUND:Posterior lumbar interbody fusion can thoroughly decompress the central canal, which is the common surgical technique for the central type of lumbar disc herniation with intervertebral instability at low lumbar segment. However, due to the regular traction on dural sac and nerve root in the operation, lower limb radicular pain in the early stage is inevitable. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of local use of gelatin sponge containing prednisolone acetate around the nerve roots after posterior lumbar interbody fusion on lower limb radicular pain. METHED:Sixty-three cases of lumbar disc herniation with degenerative instability were devided into treatment group (n=21) and control group (n=42) based on the type of implants. Gelatin sponge containing prednisolone acetate was implanted into patients in the treatment group after posterior lumbar interbody fusion, while pure gelatin sponge was implanted into patients in the control group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, radicular pain in the treatment group was significantly relieved within 1 week after surgery. The visual analog scale score and Oswestry disability index score were similar between the two groups. There were three cases of radicular pain recurrence in the control group, but no incision infection and epidural hematoma after surgery in both two groups. In conclusion, local use of gelatin sponge containing prednisolone acetate around the nerve roots can significantly relieve lower limb radicular pain in the early stage after posterior lumbar interbody fusion in lumbar disc herniation, contributing to early rehabilitation exercise and patient satisfaction outcomes.

Objective Thoracic cavity fistula following esophagus carcinoma resection is a serious complication with a high mortality.This study aims at a better therapy for thoracic cavity fistula following esophagus carcinoma resection by summarizing the ex-perience with the four-tube strategy ( jejunal fistula tube, stomach tube, chest drainage tube, and nasal fistula tube) in the treatment of the complication. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data about 62 cases of thoracic cavity fistula following esopha-gus carcinoma resection, 35 treated with the four-tube strategy ( treatment group) and the other 27 with the three-tube ( stomach tube, chest drainage tube, and nasal fistula tube) method ( control group) .We compared the hospital days, wound healing time, mortality, and incidence of anastomotic stenosis at 6 months after operation between the two groups of patients. Results Compared with the controls, the treatment group showed remarkable decreases in the hospital days (P<0.05), wound healing time (P<0.05), and mortality (P<0.05), but no statistically significant difference was observed in the incidence rate of anastomotic stenosis at 6 months after operation between the two groups of patients ( P >0.05 ) . Conclusion Compared with the three-tube method, the four-tube strategy has the advantages of shorter healing time and lower mortali-ty, and therefore is preferable for the treatment of thoracic cavity fis-tula following esophagus carcinoma resection.
