Objective To investigate the changes of Na~+,K~+-ATPase activity in the proximal tubules (PT) of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) and the correlation of PT Na~+,K~+-ATPase activity and endogenous digitalis-like substance (EDLS). Methods Female Wistar rats were developed a rat model of T2DM and then divided into 3 groups after injected stretozotocin, that is, 5 weeks group, 7 weeks group and 9 weeks group. The PT were microdissection by freehand. Na~+,K~+ -ATPase activity of PT were determined by liquid scintillation counter. Serum EDLS and insulin were determined using radioimmunoassay. Results Compared with control group, T2DM rats were associated with hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance; Na~+,K~+-ATPase activity of PT in T2DM rats was significantly increased, and there was no significant difference among 3 sub-groups. Serum EDLS level was significantly enhanced in T2DM, however, EDLS levels were no significant difference among 3 sub-groups. Na~+,K~+-ATPase activity of PT had negative relation with EDLS level in serum. Conclusion Na~+,K~+-ATPase activity of PT in T2DM rats is increased and EDLS level in serum decrease may play a important role.

Objective To investigate the relationship between diabetic retinopathy(DR) and the state of diabetes mellitus(DM) control.Methods The factors for the occurrence and development of DR were analyzed by non conditional Logistic regression model.Results 5 significant factors were screened out,which were urinary microalbumin excretion index(ALB/Cr),blood glucose before breakfast,glycosylated hemoglobin(HbAlc),diabetic neuropathy and course of DM.And the sugestible threshold value of blood glucose before breakfast is 7.90mmol/L at which we can prevent the occurrence of DR,and at 7.15mmol/L,occurrence of DR can be strictly controlled.Conclusion The state of controlling blood glucose and other complications in DM patients influences the occurrence and development of DR.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of percutaneous laser hypothermia in the treatment of lumbar discogenic pain. Methods From June 2006 to March 2008,35 patients with lumbar discogenic pain were treated by low-frequency laser hypothermia in our hospital with 1 second impulse time,1 second interval time,3.5 w power,and 30 minutes duration. The effectiveness of the therapy was evaluated afterwards. Results Among the cases,15 patients were treated by one operation,20 patients received a second therapy,and 6 underwent the therapy for totally 3 time; the treatment was effective in 32 cases (excellent in 7,good in 24,and fair in 1). The therapy is ineffective in 2 cases. One case was converted to open surgery for unsatisfying outcomes of the laser hypothermia. The total effective rate was 91.4%(32/35),and fineness rate was 88.6%(31/35). Conclusions Percutaneous laser hypothermia is an effective treatment for lumbar discogenic pain. The indications for the procedure should be selected strictly.

Objective To investigate the effects of motilin on the voltage dependent potassium channel and L-type calcium channel currents in rat proximal colon smooth muscle cells (PCSM) and to explore its mechanism in increasing colonic motility.Methods PCSM were isolated by collagenase.The voltage dependent potassium channel transit outward current (IKA ) and delayed rectifier current (IKdr) and L-type calcium currents (ICa(L)) were measured by whole cell patch clamp technique.Groups were analyzed by paired t-test.Results There was no significant effect of motilin on IKA and IKdr.L-type calcium channel was dose-dependently activated by motilin from 0.5 × 105 mmol/L to 10.0 ×10-5 mmol/L.At 6 × 10-5 mmol/L motilin and under - 10,0 and 10 mV stimulating voltage,maximum current density increased by 154.61％,62.69％ and 21.02％ respectively and activation kinetics curve obviously left shifted.Half activation voltage decreased from (2.740±1.211) mV prior administration to ( - 25.290 ± 0.614) mV (t =8.534,P =0.007 ) and there was no significant difference in slope factor. Conclusions Motilin increases colonic smooth muscle contraction by promoting calcium influx. However the frequency of colonic smooth muscle contraction could not change with frequency of equilibrium potential and action potential of colonic smooth muscle.

Objective To analyze characteristics of severe liver trauma and efficacy of different surgical procedures. Methods Clinical data of 109 patients with severe liver trauma treated in the recent 10 years were retrospectively analyzed. Debriding suture was performed in 32 patients, gauze tamponade in 5, debridement hepatectomy in 59 and anatomical hepatectomy in 13 patients. Results In all the 109 patients, 92 were cured and 17 died. The dead patients included 3 with grade Ⅲ trauma,9 with grade Ⅳ trauma, and 5 with grade V trauma. Among the dead patients, there were 3 patients with simple liver injury (17.6%) and 14 with associated injury (82.4%). Conclusion Right hepatic serious damage is the main type of severe liver trauma and is always complicated with associated injury and needs emergency treatment. Application of the most appropriate surgical approach according to the traumatic condition is important to promote the successful rate of treatment.

Objective To evaluate the value of systemic ultrasound examination in prenatal diagnosis of fetus skeletal system anomaly combined with chromosomal abnormalities. Methods In 12 146 patients examined by systemic ultrasound in Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from 2006 to 2013, 21 fetus with skeletal system abnormalities and chromosomal abnormalities were included in the study. And the correlation between skeletal system abnormalities and chromosomal abnormalities in fetus was evaluated. Results This study involves 21 cases of abnormal fetal skeletal system combined with chromosomal abnormalities. Among them, there were 5 cases of trisomy-21, 11 cases of trisomy-18, 3 cases of trisomy-13, 1 case of [46, XYt (6, 9)], and 1 case of (46, XY, 6 q-). In 19 cases, other system malformations were found, including nervous system abnormalities, facial deformity, cardiac structural abnormalities and intrauterine retardation. In the rest 2 cases, skeletal system abnormalities were the only structural malformation detected on prenatal ultrasound examination. Conclusion Systemic ultrasound can't only detect fetal skeletal system abnormalities but also provide clues for specific chromosomal abnormalities, which was useful in optimizing prenatal diagnosis.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the potential role of exogenous hydrogen sulfide ( H2 S) and ATP-sensitive po-tassium ( KATP ) channels in chronic stress-induced colonic hypermotility.METHODS:Male Wistar rats were divided into water avoidance stress ( WAS) group and sham WAS ( SWAS) group.Organ bath recordings were used to test the contrac-tile activity of colonic strips.The effects of H2 S donor NaHS and pretreatment with glibenclamide on the contractions of co-lonic smooth muscle were studied and the IC50 of NaHS was calculated.The localization and expression of the subunits of KATP channels were determined by the methods of immunohistochemistry and Western blotting.RESULTS:WAS increased contractile activity of colonic strips.NaHS concentration-dependently inhibited the spontaneous contractions of strips from the SWAS and WAS rats.The IC50 of NaHS for longitudinal muscle ( LM) and circular muscle ( CM) of the WAS rats was 0.2033 mmol/L and 0.1438 mmol/L, significantly lower than those of the SWAS rats.Glibenclamide significantly in-creased the IC50 of NaHS for LM and CM from the SWAS and WAS rats.In both SWAS and WAS rat colon, Kir6.1, Kir6.2 and SUR2B were expressed on the plasma membrane of the smooth muscle cells.WAS treatment resulted in up-reg-ulation of the expression of Kir6.1 and SUR2B in the colon devoid of mucosa and submucosa.CONCLUSION: The in-creased expression of Kir 6.1 and SUR2B in colonic smooth muscle cells may be a defensive response to chronic WAS.H2 S donors may have potential clinical effect on treating chronic stress-induced colonic hypermotility.

Objective·To investigate the incidence, risk factors and treatment of the catheter-related thrombosis (CRT) in breast cancer patients after implantation of totally implantable venous access port (TIVAP) in chemotherapy. Methods·A total of 190 cases after implantation of TIVAP were investigated. Color Doppler ultrasound was used to monitor the neck blood vessels to find whether there was CRT before chemotherapy and before taking out the port. The incidence of CRT, occurrence time, risk factors and treatment efficacy were observed. Results·There were 112 (58.9%) cases with CRT and 108 (56.8%) patients with asymptomatic thrombosis, and only 4 cases had symptomatic thrombosis, the incidence of which was 2.1%. Most thrombosis developed on the 21th day after catheterization, and the patients over the age of 60, with clinical stage Ⅲ - Ⅳ and chemotherapy regimens TEC (docetaxel combined pirubicin and cyclophosphamide) were the risk factors for thrombosis. All the patients with asymptomatic thrombosis accepted anticoagulant treatment with low molecular heparin, earthworms enzyme or aspirin, respectively, but there was no significant difference in efficacy in the three groups (P=0.743). Conclusion·Port catheter related symptomatic thrombosis incidence is low but the incidence of symptomatic thrombosis is high in the breast cancer patients after chemotherapy. Age, tumor stage and TEC chemotherapy regimens are the risk factors for catheter-related thrombosis.
