Geometrically virtual models of three-dimensional blood flow field and eight types of mesh stent (different porosity and different stent shape) were constructed using SoildWorks software, and simulation of stented models were performed respectively using finite element software ANSYS11.0 according to computation fluid dynamics method. The flow resistance of the semi-circular section stent model of blood flow from the semi-circular planar surface was greater than the reverse in a certain range of permeability. However, the result was the opposite when the porosity increased to a specific value. For both grid-stent model and sine-stent model, flow resistance of blood that flowed from the stent in both directions increased with the porosity reduction. Under the same porosity and the direction of blood flow from the same stent, the flow resistance of the grid stent model was 1.5 times greater than the sine-stent model. Results showed that there are different effects on the flow resistance in blood flow in different directions from the semi-circular section stent model.

Objective: To observe the effect of Radix Astragali on the transmission time of small intestine(TTSI).Methods: TTSI and the peak value of lactose absorption were determined by hydrogen breath test in 40 healthy subjects a week before and after administration of Radix Astragali. Results: TTSI was 116.48+ 24.57 min and 102.38+ 13.44 min respectively before and after administration (P 0.05).Conclusion: Oral administration of Radix Astragali for one week has no effect on the absorption of the lactose by small intestine,but can promote the movement of small intestine.

Objective To study the relationship of MR diffusion tensor imaging for corpus callosum and cingulate bundles with cognitive impairment in subcortical ischemic vascular dementia (SIVD) patients.Methods Sixty elderly SIVD patients admitted to our hospital from July 2015 to June 2016 served as a SIVD group and 40 age-matched persons undergoing physical examination served as a control group in this study.The mean ADC and FA were calculated according to the MR diffusion tensor imaging parameters in region of interest.Relationship between fiber tract integraty and MMSE Scale score was compared between the two groups.Results The ADC was significantly higher while the FA was significantly lower for the genu of corpus callosum in SIVD group than in control group.However,no significant difference was found in ADC for the spenium of corpus callosum between the two groups (P＞0.05).The ADC was significantly higher while the FA was significantly lower for bilateral cingulate bundles (P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The FA for the genu of corpus callosum and bilateral cingulate bundles was positively related with the MMSE Scale score (r=0.511,r=0.469,r=0.457,P＜0.05).However,the FA for the splenium of corpus callosum was not related with the MMSE Scale score(r=0.364,P＞0.05).Conclusion Changes of MR diffusion tensor imaging parameters in corpus callosum and cingulate bundles contribute to the early prevention and treatment of cognitive impairment in SIVD patients.

Objective To develop a sensitive, simple, and accurate method for the determination of shionone in rat plasma after ig administration of Asteris Radix petroleum ether extract (RAPE). Methods The separation was achieved by HPLC on a RP18 column (150 mm × 3.9 mm, 5μm) with a mobile phase composed of acetotitrile-0.05% phosphoric acid water (98: 2) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. UV Detector was set at 200 nm and friedelin was chosen as an internal standard. Results The linear range of the standard curves was (0.3443-22.0) μg/mL with the correlation coefficient of 0.9968. The intra- and inter-day precisions were all below 10% and the relative error was -3.5%-1.1%.Conclusion The developed method can be successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study. After ig administration of RAPE, T1/2(ka) is (33.09 ± 7.32) min and T1/2(ke) is (84.95 ± 22.34) min.

The ubiquitin-like modifier bISG15 is an antiviral protein found in fetal bovine lung (FBL) cells.Bovine Herpesvirus 1(BHV-1),which is a viral pathogen of cattle,can infect FBL cells and induce cytopathic effects.Real-time PCR assays showed that BHV- 1 's infection could repress the basal or inducible transcription of bISG15 in FBL cells.It demonstrates that this repression effect depends on BHV-1 viral infection and new protein synthesis.Our previous work showed that bIRF-3 was the key factor in the stimulation of bISG 15 in FBL cells,so the effect of BHV-1 viral protein on bIRF-3 activating the promoter of bISG15 was confirmed.The luciferase assay showed the BHV-1 viral protein bICP0 inhibited the activation of bISG15 promoter stimulated by bIRF-3.Taken together,our work suggested that BHV-I had some molecular mechanism to resist the cellular bISG15'santiviral functions.

BACKGROUND:Sodium hyaluronate is a polysaccharide polymer biomaterial, which is considered to have a certain effect to repair the cartilage surface, reduce the release of inflammatory mediators, and promote meniscal repair. OBJECTIVE:To observe the therapeutic effect of Fast-Fix combined with sodium hyaluronate in meniscal repair under arthroscope. METHODS:Eighty-six patients with meniscus injury admitted at the Department of Orthopedics, CNPC Central Hospital, from March 2008 to March 2014 were enrol ed in the study. The average age was 25.5 years, and the average duration of disease was 1.5 months. The main clinical manifestations included knee joint pain and swel ing after exercise and positive McMurray signs. The MRI results showed meniscus tear or degeneration. Arthroscopic repairing surgeries were performed with Fast-Fix combined with sodium hyaluronate injection (2.5 mL at the end of surgery), and then sodium hyaluronate was injected intraarticularly at 1, 2, 3 weeks after surgery. Each patient was assessed with Lysholm knee joint score system before and after operation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Eighty-one patients were fol owed up for an average of 1.5 years and five patients were lost to fol ow-up. Joint locking, significant tenderness and movement disorder symptoms disappeared in 79 of 81 patients, and meniscal healing was shown on MRI review within 1 year after surgery;the Lysholm score was higher than 75 points, and the excel ent rate was 98%. Only the remained two patients felt swel ing and tenderness and the movement was slightly restricted when going down or standing up. The Fast-Fix combined with sodium hyaluronate in meniscal repair under arthroscope has good effect and good function of knee joint.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury during total thyroidectomy.Methods The clinical data of 36 patients suffering from recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in total thyroidectomy from 2003 to 2014 was analyzed retrospectively.Results 21 cases had temporary recurrent laryngeal nerve injury while 16 cases had permanent injury.The cases of injury included giant thyroid goitre,with variation of recurrent laryngeal nerve,undergoing secondary surgery,with tumor invasion and complicating thyroiditis.During the first surgery,the incidence of temporary recurrent laryngeal nerve injury was 0.43％,and the incidence of permanent damage was 0.27％.The temporary and permanent injury incidence of secondary surgery after initial subtotal thyroidectomy was 4.59％ and 4.59％,respectively.For patients with grade 3 thyroid gland,that was 1.81％ and 0.30％,respectively and 0.51％,0.72％ respectively in malignant cases.In cases complicating thyroiditis temporary recurrent laryngeal nerve injury occurred in 1.01％.Conclusions There is increased risk of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in giant goiter cases undergoing secondary operations.Hence it is suggested that initial surgical procedure be hemithyroidectomy or total thyroidectomy
