FVC levels were increased significantry compared to the control group. PaOz decreased significantly in Fan Ming infusion group compared 100 control group.

【Objective】To investigate the role of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) in the prevention of acute rejection in renal transplantation.【Methods】A total of 106 patients were randomized into two groups.One group received MMF (n=56),the other received azathioprine (Aza) (n=50).The time of the following study was within the first 6 months after transplantation.【Results】The rate of acute rejection of group receiving MMF was 20%,it′s lower than that of the group receiving Aza 44% (P<0.01).The recovery rate of acute rejection treated by methylprednisolone (MP),in MMF group 82% was higher than Aza group 55%.(P<0.05).Meanwhile the hepatotoxicity as well as cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection were lower in MMF group than those in Aza group.【Conclusion】MMF as a new anti-rejection drug could more effectively prevent acute rejection than Aza after renal transplantation,and has lower toxicity and side effect.

Objective To explore the neural mechanism underlying the craving of heroin addicts induced by picture-cue and the correlation between the brain activation degree in nucleus accumbens (NAc)/the ventral striatum and the scores of patients' self-report craving. Methods Twelve active heroin addicts and 12 matched healthy controls underwent fMRI scan while viewing drug-related pictures and neutral pictures presented in a block design paradigm after anatomical scanning in GE 3.0 T scanner. The fMRI data were analyzed with SPM 5. The change of craving scores was tested by Wilcoxon signed rank test. The Pearson correlation between the activation of NAc/the ventral striatum and the heroin craving score was tested by SPSS 13.0. Results The craving scores of heroin addicts ranged from 0 to 3.70(median 0.15) before exposed to drug cue and 0 to 5.10(median 3.25) after viewing drug-related pictures and showed statistical significance(Z = -2.666, P < 0.05). There were 16 activated brain areas when heroin dependent patients exposed to visual drug-related cue vs. neutral visual stimuli. The activation brain regions belonged to two parts, one was limbic system (amygdale, hippocampus, putamen, anterior cingulate cortex and caudate), another was brain cortex (middle frontal cortex, inferior frontal cortex, precentral gyrus, middle temporal cortex, inferior temporal cortex, fusiform gyrus, precuneus and middle occipital gyrus). The MR signal activation magnitude of heroin addicts ranged from 0.19 to 3.50. The result displayed a significant positive correlation between the cue-induced fMRI activation in NAc/the ventral striatum and heroin craving severity (r=0.829, P < 0.05). Conclusion Heroin shared the same neural circuitry in part with other drugs of abuse for cue-induced craving, including brain reward circuitry, visualspatial attention circuit and working memory region. In addition, the dysfunction of NAc/the ventral striatum may attribute to heroin-related cue induced craving.

Objective To explore the characteristic findings of 1H-MR spectroscopy(1H-MRS) in the prefrontal cortex and amygdala of patients with heroine dependence(HD), and the relationship to total cumulative dose of inhaled heroine.Methods Fourteen male HD patients and 12 healthy controls (HC) underwent 1H-MRS at the prefrontal cortex and amygdala regions.The total cumulative in haled heroin dose was (852±341) g in HD.Ratios of N-acetylaspartate/creatine(NAA/Cr) and choline/creatine (Cho/Cr) were respectively measured in the prefrontal cortex and bilateral amygdale regions.The student's t test and the linear correlation were employed for statistical analysis.Results Compared to HC group, HD patients had a significant lower ratio of NAA/Cr in the prefrontal cortex (1.44±0.46 vs 1.50±0.75, t=1.77 ,P <0.05), left amygdala region (1.32±0.08 vs 1.42±0.08, t=3.41, P < 0.05), and right amygdala region (1.34±0.09 vs 1.44±0.10, t=2.63, P <0.05), the HD patients had a significant increased ratio of Cho/Cr in the prefrontal cortex (0.92±0.06 vs 0.86±0.08, t=2.31, P < 0.05), left amygdala region (1.20+0.12 vs 1.07±0.04, t=3.60,P<0.05) and right amygdala region(1.26±0.15 vs 1.12±0.11,t=2.60,P <0.05).There was a negative linear correlation between the total cumulative inhaled heroine dose and the ratio of NKA/Cr in the prefrontal cortex (r=-0.9159, P < 0.01), left amygdala region (r=-0.8756, P < 0.01), and right amygdala region (r=-0.9399, P < 0.01) respectively.Conclusions The study indicates that neuronal damage and glial proliferation may occur in the prefrontal cortex and amygdala region, which suggests the abnormalities of executive function and emotion in patients with HD.A relationship exists between the heroin-induced metabolic abnormality and the total cumulative dose of inhaled heroine.

Objective: To quantitatively study the morphological structure and parameter of right atrial appendage (RAA) by 256-slice spiral CT to provide RAA imaging reference for interventional or surgical therapy in clinical practice. Methods: A total of 200 patients with negative CTA results examined in our hospital were studied including 96 male and 104 female; by age division, Age≤40 years group,n=29, Age (40-60) years group,n=114 and Age>60 years group,n=57. The original scanning data was reconstructed for RAA establishment, indexes of volume, radial lines were measured and compared between different gender and age groups to obtain 95% normal imaging references of RAA.

Objective To analyze the early risk factors of overweight and obesity in preschool children.Methods Using stratified cluster sampling,the data of 1 335 preschool children's physical examination in High-tech Zone,Urumqi,Xinjiang were collected,and the case group had 153 overweight and obese children,the control group had 1 182 non-overweight and obese children;a case-control study was conducted.The basic data of mothers and the basic data of neonatal birth were analyzed retrospectively.The univariate and unconditional multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed.Results The prevalence of overweight and obesity in preschool children in High-tech Zone in Urumqi was 11.5％.Non-conditional multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that children's age (OR=1.31,95％ CI:1.07-1.61),mother's pre-pregnancy BMI (OR=1.11 95 ％,CI:1.06-1.17) and whether mothers had gestational hypertension (OR=1.99 95％,CI:1.03-3.85) were the risk factors for overweight and obesity in preschool children (P＜0.05).Conclusion In Urumqi high school district preschool children's overweight and obesity rate was high;mothers with high BMI before pregnancy,and those with high blood pressure during pregnancy can increase the risk of overweight and obesity in children,preschool children's increased age may increase the risk of overweight and obesity in children.

Objective: To detect the damage of excessive iodine on the activities and mRNA of cathepsin B and D and observe the effects of selenium intervention. Method: Thyroid follicular epithelial cell line FRTL was cultured in Kaighn’s modified Ham’s F-12 medium. ① The cells were divided into 8 groups for detection of activities of cathepsin B and D (CB and CD). The medium of NI group did not contain selenium or iodine, while EI group contained 50 mmol/L KI, and IS group contained 50mmol/L KI and different dosages of 0.1,0.2,0.5,1.0,2.0 and 5.0 ?mol/L selenium (sodium selenite). ②The mRNA levels of cathepsin B and D were detected by real-time PCR. The medium of NI group and EI group was same as above, but IS group only contained 0.1?mol/L selenium besides 50mmol/L KI. Results: The activities of CB decreased in EI group (50mmol/L KI treated 12 h), while CD decreased after 24 h and both activities were improved in IS groups with 0.1~0.5?mol/L selenium. The mRNA levels of CB and CD in EI group decreased, while in IS group were improved. Conclusion: Excessive iodine resulted in goiter through decreased levels of activities and mRNA of CB and CD. The intervention of selenium on goiter mayinduce its amelioration effect on decrease of CB and CD activities and the optimal dosage ranges from 0.1?mol/L to 0.5?mol/L.

NAS preparation, a kind of Chinese herbal medicine found by the Yunnan Eco-agricultural Research Institute, has potential antiviral activity. In this paper, the inhibiting effect of NAS preparation on H9N2 subtype Avian influenza virus (AIV) was investigated in vivo. Chickens infected with H9N2 virus were treated with NAS preparation for 4 days. The virus was then detected by hemoagglutination (HA) test and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The results showed that no H9N2 virus could be detected at the 7th day when the chickens were treated with 0.2g/kg/d or 0.1g/kg/d of NAS preparation. However the virus could be detected in other chickens without NAS preparation treatment. This result suggested that NAS preparation may be a potential drug candidate to control infection of H9N2 subtype AIV in chickens.

AIM: To study cellular and molecular mechanisms of cardiac development associated genes ex- pression and its function during early stage cardiomyogenesis. METHODS: (1 ) Mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC) line D3 culture. (2) Inductive culals of ESC differentiated into cardiac myocytes in vitro.(3) Identification of ESC -derived cardiac myocytes: RNA isolation; synthesis of specific primer and RT - PCR; Label of RT - PCR products with [? - 32P] dATP as probes, purifyed by sephadex G - 50 columns, determined the yield of DNA. RNA dot hy- bridization. RESULTS: 80% of ESC differentiated into cardiomyocytes by improved conditional medium. Cardiomy- ocytes contraCted in a synchronous manner. The results of RT - PCR and RNA blot showed that cardiac genes were expressed abundantly and specifically during the early cardiomyogenesis. CONCLUSIONS: ESC were able to be dif- ferentiate into cardiomyocytes. Different concentrations and components of RA, DMSO and FCS affected ESC car- diomyogenesis in de. The optimal result obtained was from the conditional medium, a mixturce of 2 nmol/L retinoic acid (RA), 0.6% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and 20% fend calf serum (FCS).
