Objective To investigate the incidence and influence factors of stress ulcer SU) in traffic injury patients. Methods Clinical data of 362 traffic injury patients were studied retrospectively.Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ ) score was carried out for all the patients.All the patients had gastroscopy and a comparative analysis was done on the SU patients with or without bleeding and the patients without SU. Results The patients with extensive burn in traffic injury were more susceptible to SU as compared with other trauma patients,with statistical difference ( X2 =7.028,P < 0.05 ).The incidence of SU or hemorrhage was increased with higher APACHE Ⅱ score.The incidence of SU hemorrhage in patients with diabetes or cardiopulmonary disease was significantly higher than that in patients without diabetes or cardiopulmonary disease ( P < O.05 ). Conclusions Traffic injury patients should receive routine gastroscopy.APACHE Ⅱ score has some predictive value for SU or hemorrhage.The incidence of SU hemorrhage is also determined by combined factors of underlying diseases and treatment methods.

Objective To investigate the time course of nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB) and the effects of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) on the expressions of NF-κB,tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin1β(IL-1β) in hippocampus after seizures.Methods Epilepsy were induced by [PTZ] through Intraperitoneal injection.Western blotting was used to detect NF-κB p65 expression in nucleus at various experiment groups in different time points( 14d,21 d,28d,35d).Moreover,mRNA and protein expressions of TNF-α and IL-1β in different experiment groups in different time points by Real-time quantitative PCR and ELISA analysis.Results The expression of NF-κB p65 began to increase in the nuclear fraction in 14d,kept rising in 28d and returned to 14d level in 35d after epilepsy seizures,At 14d,21d,28d and 35d,the expressions of NF-κB in PDTC groups ( (0.54 ±0.07),(0.65 ± 0.08 ),(0.78 ± 0.10),(0.78 ± 0.10) ) was significantly lower than those in PTZ groups ((1.20 ±0.11),(1.42 ±0.14),(1.88 ±0.16),(1.25 ±0.10)) (P<0.01).After epilepsy seizures,the expression of TNF-α 、IL-1β mRNA was increased in PTZ groups( ( 1.34 ±0.13,0.81 ± O.17 ),( 1.64 ±0.17,1.56±0.20),(2.03 ±0.16,1.65 ±0.18),(1.40 ±0.10,1.30 ±0.13) ) than those in NS groups(P<0.01 ) ;and compared with PTZ groups PDTC significantly decrease the mRNA expressions of TNF-α and IL-1 β in PDTC groups( (0.96 ±0.1,0.57 ±0.07),(1.36 ±0.15,1.09 ±0.18),(1.47 ±0.14,1.25 ±0.16),(1.12 ±0.12,O.85 ± 0.12) ) (P < 0.05 ).The expressions of TN F-α,IL-1β protein were similar in hippocampal by ELISA.Conclusion Seizures induces NF-κB nucleus translocation and promotes the expressions of TNF-ot and IL-1 β in hippocampus and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate suppresses NF-κB associated inflammatory pathway in epileptic rat hippocampus.

Objective To establish an animal model of metabolic syndrome which is prone to atherosclerosis. Methods Eight rabbits were randomly selected from in total of 16 rabbits as control group who were fed with normal rabbit feed. And the rest were used as model group, who were fed with high fat diet. Animals were weigh every week, and triacylg-lycerol (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and glucose (GLU) content were tested in the 8th, 10th , 13th, 16th and 18th week. Femoral arterial blood pressure and insu-lin (INS) content were assessed at the end of experimental period which is the 18th week;Also, aortic sclerosis rating, arterial stiffness index, abdominal fat coefficient, liver coefficient and cardiac coefficient were calculated and heart, aorta, liver and lower extremity artery pathology were examed.

Objective To investigate the frequency of lesions detection in patients with cerebral infarction (CI) with SPECT/CT. To investigate fluctuation of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and its relationship with clinical symptoms. Methods Sixty-seven CI patients without cerebellar lesion were randomly selected. The rCBF in the regions of interest (ROI) was examined by SPECT/CT, which was collected from the frontal lobe, temporal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, thalamus, basal ganglia and cerebellum. The rCBF index was calculated. The association between fluctuation of rCBF index and clinical symptoms of patients was explored. Results There were 251 positive regions in all viewing regions , the total positive rate was 31.2%. The left side was 38.1%, while the right side was 24.4% (χ2=17.522,P < 0.01). In normal group, there were no statistical difference of average rCBF between two halves (P > 0.05). However, the average rCBF on the left parietal lobe was lower (P < 0.01). The average rCBF in the abnormal group was lower than that in ipsilateral normal group (P < 0.01). The average rCBF index in the abnormal group was higher (P < 0.01). In normal group , the average rCBF on the frontal lobe and parietal lobe was low , but the average rCBF on the thalamus and basal ganglia was high (P < 0.01). In abnormal group, there were no statistical difference in the average rCBF (P >0.05). rCBF≥0.7 is a clinical sign of abnormal ROI. Conclusion 30% of ROI of CI patients have lesions and the positive rate of the left side was higher. The biological rCBF values of all lobes were different. Therefore, rCBF index could be used to reflect whether the ROI is normal. rCBF≥0.7 could be used as a sign to quantitatively assess abnormal ROI in clinical practice.

AIM:To investigate the effects of nodosin extracted from Chinese traditional medicine on the pro-liferation of HepG2 cells cultured in vitro and to detect the protein expression of Bcl-2 and Bax in HepG2 cells.METH-ODS:HepG2 cells were treated with different concentrations (1.25, 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 μmol/L) of nodosin for 24 h. The morphological changes of HepG2 cells were observed under inverted microscope.The inhibitory rates of HepG2 cell growth were detected by MTT assay.The apoptotic rates and the protein expression of Bcl-2 and Bax were analyzed by flow cytometry.RESULTS:Shrunken and suspended HepG2 cells increased with the increases in the concentrations of nodo-sin.The apoptotic rates and the expression of Bax increased with the increases in the doses of nodosin, while the expression of Bcl-2 decreased.CONCLUSION:Nodosin inhibits the growth of HepG2 cells in a dose-dependent manner.The inhibi-tion of HepG2 cell growth is induced by decreasing Bcl-2 and increasing Bax, thus promoting cell apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of sperm DNA fragmentation (SDF)and sperm morphology on the fertilization and embryo development in ICSI.Methods SDF and sperm morphology were detected in the meanwhile of taking eggs in 1 45 ICSI treatment cycle.On the basis of SDF index (DFI)divided into group A (DFI≤30%)and group B (DFI >30%).According to the normal sperm morphology divided into group C (NMSR≥4%), group D (1 %≤NMSR <4%),group E (NMSR <1 %).According to the sperm DFI and NMSR divided into group F (DFI≤30% and NMSR≥4%)and group G (DFI >30% and NMSR <4%).Statistically analyzed ICSI outcome of research group:fertilization rate,embryo utilization rate,good quality embryo rate,implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate.Results (1 )The normal fertilization rate,embryos utilization rate,good quality embryo rate,implan-tation rate in group A were significantly higher than those in group B (χ2 =6.96,8.95,5.49,3.92,all P <0.05), but clinical pregnancy rate had no significant difference (χ2 =1 .08,P >0.05).(2)The normal fertilization rate was statistically significant in group C,group D,group E (χ2 =34.5,65.8,11 .8,all P <0.05),but there were no significant differences in embryo utilization rate,good quality embryo rate,implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate (P >0.05).(3 )The normal fertilization rate,embryo utilization rate,good quality embryo rate,implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate in group F were significantly higher than those in group G,and normal fertilization rate,embryos utilization rate,good quality embryo rate had statistically significant differences (χ2 =37.5,1 1 .0,4.3,all P <0.05). Conclusion Sperm abnormal morphology has negative effect on fertilization,and the high DNA fragments have negative effects on fertilization and embryo development.
