Method:The old myocardial infarction moldel was established using ligating the left anterior descending branch under thoracotomy.With the instrument of indentation, creep test was applied to the normal and old infarcted canine ventricular myocardium. Results:The viscoelastic parameteres of normal group:E164?9kPa,E2565?148kPa,E∞57?7kPa,?1.7?0.9?105kPa.s;old infarcted group: E1130?30kPa,E21076?466kPa,113?27kPa,?2.8?1.0?105kPa.s.The difference of parameteres in above two groups is significant in statistics(P

A biological study was made to estimate the influence of excess dietary zinc, in vivo, on iron and copper status and their antagonism. Chicks were randomly divided into four groups (n= 22 each) according to body weight and were fed on experimental diet with different amounts of zinc, iron and copper for 28 days. The results were as follows; 1. Excess dietary zinc (400ppm) caused retardation of growth rate in experimental chicks, hypochromic anemia, elevation of blood and tissues (liver, kidney) zinc levels and lowering iron, copper and ceruloplasmin content,and eryth-rocyte Cu-Zn-superoxide dismutase activity; 2. Copper alone supplemented up to 40ppm to the excess zinc diet was able to improve the growth rate, body copper status and Cu-Za-superoxide dismutase activity, but no effect on anemia and body iron status; 3. Iron and copper were supplemented up to 400ppm and 40ppm respectively to excess zinc diet at same time, all the parameters were similar to the chicks fed basal diet. These data suggested that supplement of iron and copper at proper proportion to excess zinc diet can prevent the adverse effects of excess zinc on chicks.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of cetuximab combined FOLFOX chemotherapy on colon and colorectal cancer.Methods Forty patients with colon and colorectal cancer were randomly divided into observation group and control group,and 20 cases for each group.Patients in control group were treated with oxaliplatin + leucovorin + 5-fluorouracil,and in the observation group were given cetuximab (the first does was 400 mg/m2 at the first week,then the second week and follow weeks was 250 mg/m2 1 time/week for 6 week) plus the treatment as control group.The clinical efficacy,adverse effect and 1-year survival in the two groups were recorded.Results The total effective rate and clinical benefit rate in observation group were 60％ (12/20)and 85％ (17/20) respectively,which significantly higher than the control group (30％ (6/20) and 65 ％ (13/ 20),x2 =18.18,10.67,P ＜ 0.05).Skin rash rate in observation group was 55％ (11/20),which was significantly higher than that of control group (15％ (3/20),x2 =35.16,P ＜0.05).Half-year survival rate and 1-year survival rate of patients in observation group were 75％ (15/20) and 45％ (9/20) respectively,significantly higher than the control group (50％ (10/20) and 25％ (5/20),x2 =13.33,8.791,P ＜ 0.05)~ Conclusion Treatment scheme of Cetuximab combined FOLFOX chemotherapy is proved to be an effect of treating advanced colon and colorectal and be with the low adverse effect.

Objectives: Inquirying the ability of the earlier diagnosis and studying the surgical management of intra and extra middle skull base tumors. Methods: A retrospective study has been made on 43 cases of malignant skull base tumor extended into cavernouse sinus. CT and MRI evaluation were made for all patients. Different approaches have been utilized to remove tumors. Results: In early period there was no obviously clinical sign. 5 year survival rate was 35.1%. Seven cases of no removing totally tumors in cavernous sinus had been alive for 7 months. Conclusions: The symptoms of skull base carcinoma is less, which often leads to false diagnosis and management. Total resection via different approaches may improve clinical results.

Objective To investigate the changes in regional cerebral blood flow and its relationship with atrophy of the entorhinal cortex in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD).Methods Twenty eight patients including ten cases with aMCI,nine case with mild AD and nine cases with moderate to severe AD were enrolled.The cognitive function was evaluated by revised version of Hasegawa's Dementia Scale (HDS-R) and Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-cognitive part (ADAS-cog).Regional cerebral blood flow was evaluated by 99mTc-ECD SPECT and easy Z score imaging system (eZIS).Z scores of voxel-based specific regional analysis system for Alzheimer's disease (VSRAD) were used to assess the degree of atrophy of the entorhinal cortex.Results The Z-score in eZIS was lower in mild to severe AD group than in aMCI group [(1.57±0.46),(1.50±0.54) vs.(1.00±0.50),F=4.58,P=0.022],which showed that the regional cerebral blood flow of cingulate was lower in AD group than in aMCI group.The Z-score in eZIS in bilateral frontal lobes and left hippocampus were higher in moderate to severe AD group than those in aMCI group than in aMCI and mild AD group respectively [(1.43± 0.79) vs.(0.67±0.50),(0.88±0.64); (1.43±0.79) vs.(0.67±0.50),(0.75±0.46); (1.86± 0.50) vs.(1.33±0.50),(1.75±0.46),F=2.90,3.81 and 3.06,respectively,P=0.077,0.039 and 0.068],which showed that the regional cerebral blood flow of bilateral frontal lobes and left hippocampus were lower in moderate to severe AD group than in aMCI group.The score of HDS-R had a negative correlation (r =-0.568,-0.481,P=0.004,0.017) and the score of ADAS-cog had a positive correlation (r=0.462,0.459; P =0.030,0.032) with regional cerebral blood flow in hippocampus.Conclusions The regional cerebral blood flow of cingulate gyrus is decreased in early stage of AD,and involves in frontal lobe and hippocampus along with the deterioration of diseases.The changes of cognitive function are correlated with cerebral blood flow in hippocampus.The Z-score in eZIS can effectively evaluate the changes of regional cerebral blood flow in aMCI and AD patients.

Objective To determine the effects of Hyperoside ( Hyp) on the memory impairment induced by hypobaric hypoxia. Meth-ods SD rats were exposed in hypobaric hypoxia chamber which simulated 6 100 m high altitude for 7 days to induce memory impairment. Morris maze was applied to determine the effects of Hyp on memory in hypobaric chamber. The activities of SOD and CAT and levels of GSH and MDA in rat hippocampus were measured by assay kit ( Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Institute) . Results In target quadrant,the time and path and the frequency to cross platform were reduced under hypobaric hypoxia as compared with normoxia group ( P < 0. 05 or P<0. 01). Administration of Hyp significantly attenuated the hypoxia-induced the memory impairment responses(P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). The activities of SOD and CAT in rats hippocampus exposed to hypobaric hypoxia were significantly improved in the presence of Hyp as com-pared with the absence of Hyp(P<0. 05 or P<0. 01),so did GSH level (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Significant decrease of MDA levels was observed in the hippocampus on exposure to hypobaric hypoxia with Hyp as compared without Hyp. Conclusion Hyp reduces hypoxia-in-duced oxidative stress injury by upregulating activity of antioxidant proteins such as SOD,CAT in hippocampus of rats, which contribute to at-tenuate memory impairment induced by hypobaric hypoxia.
