Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of long guidewire exchange technique in performing cerebral angiography via radial artery approach.Methods The clinical data of 257 patients,who received cerebral angiography during the period from June 2014 to May 2016 at Daxing Hospital of Capital Medical University,Beijing,China,were retrospectively analyzed.Among the 257 patients,186 had type Ⅱ or type Ⅲ aortic arch.According to the different looping technologies for Simmons-2 catheter used in the performance of cerebral angiography,these 186 patients were divided into the study group (n=90) and the routine group (n=96).The success rate of radial artery puncturing,the success rate of Simmons-2 catheter looping formation,the success rate of supra-arch arterial catheterization,the time spent for angiography,the radiation exposure time,complications,etc.were recorded.Results The success rate of radial artery puncturing was 100％ in both groups.The success rate of Simmons-2 catheter looping formation in the study group was 97.8％,which was significantly higher than 72.9％ in the routine group (P＜0.05).The success rates of catheterization for the left subclavian artery,left common carotid artery and right carotid artery in the study group were 97.8％,97.8％ and 97.8％ respectively,which were remarkably higher than 72.9％,72.9％ and 72.9％ respectively in the routine group (P＜0.05).No statistically significant difference in the success rates of catheterization for right subclavian artery and for right vertebral artery existed between the two groups (P＞ 0.05).The time spent for angiography in the study group and the routine group was (22.5±9.4) min and (28.3±8.3) min respectively.The radiation exposure time in the study group was (8.9±4.5) min,which was obviously lower than (12.6±6.5) min in the routine group (P=0.017 and P=0.035,respectively).The incidences of complications in the study group and the routine group were 4.4％ and 5.2％ respectively,the difference was not statistically significant (P＞0.05).No severe complications,such as intracranial arterial embolie events,puncture bleeding,arterial occlusion,etc.,occurred in all patients of both groups.Conclusion The use of long guidewire exchange technology can improve the success rate of Simmon-2 catheter looping formation and the success rate of supra-arch arterial catheterization,it can also shorten the time for angiography procedure and reduce the radiation exposure time.This technique is very effective with higher safety.Therefore,this long guidewire exchange technique should be used as a common method for cerebral angiopraphy via radial artery approach in patients with type Ⅱ or type Ⅲ aortic arch.

Objective To investigate the expression of connexin CX43 using hybridization techniques after GABA restraining receptor gene was transferred into the supramammillary of hypothalamus in Kainic acid(KA) induced epileptic rats.Methods Twenty-four male Wistar rats were divided into four groups: control group(n=2),surgery group(n=2),KA group(n=10) and GABA restraining receptor gene transferred group(GABA group)(n=10).No treatment was given to the control group.Physiological saline(1 ?L) was injected into right amygdala of rat in surgery group.In KA group,KA(1 ?L,1 ?g) was injected into the amygdala of rat to build epileptic model.In GABA group,the GABA restraining receptor gene(400 nL,40 ng) was transferred into the supramammillary of hypothalamus by HVJ-liposome 48 h before KA was injected into amygdala.The expressions of CX43 mRNA and morphological changes different time(3 h,6 h,24 h,3d,7d) were observed by in situ hybridization in each group.Results In control group and surgery group,the morphological manifestations were normal,and the hippocampus structures were complete.In KA group,swell and degenerative hippocampus neurons were showed and deteriorated with time.In GABA group,the degeneration and necroses of hippocampus neurons were relatively alleviated.The positive expression of CX43 mRNA was few in control group and surgery group.And in KA group it increased with time.In GABA group,the positive expression of CX43 mRNA was fewer than that of KA group at every period.Conclusion The expression of CX43 mRNA in hippocampus can be decreased by transferring GABA receptor gene into hypothalamus.

Objective:This paper studied the electromagnetic-driven pressure control system in the automatic measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP).The accuracy of pressure control directly impacts on the accuracy of IOP measurements,so it calls for precise pressure to achieve closed-loop control.Methods:According to the actual needs of IOP measuring,we got the structural and electromagnetic parameters of the electromagnetic drive system by combining the methods of numerical calculation and ANSYS simulation.Using the FC bus and digital-analog conversion,the microcontroller module controlled the drive current digitally and precisely in order to achieve closed-loop control of pressure.Results:The experimental results showed that in the electromagnetic pressure control system,the pressure range was 0 N～0.48982 N,the accuracy 0.00058 N,the drive current control error about 1% on average.Besides,the electromagnetic force and the excitation current showed a good linear relationship in the same stroke.Conclusions:The electromagnetic pressure control system achieved a good result in closed-loop control of pressure.The control pressure range and control accuracy were in line with the standard of Goldmann applanation tonometer.According to the results,this study laid the foundation for the further development of IOP automatically measuring instruments.

Objective To explore the effect of Acorus gramimeus and its major components ?-asarone on N-methyl-D-asperate recepter 1 (NMDAR1) mRNA levels of hippocamp neurons in epileptic animal models induced by pentylenetetrazol (PTZ). Methods PTZ 60 mg/kg was injected to the abdominal cavity of three weeks Wistar rats to prepare epileptic animal models. The animal models were randomly divided into three groups: epilepsy control, A. gramimeus and ?-asarone as well as the normal control. Each group was administered through intraperitoneal injection. Both of two control groups were injected physiologic saline 1.0 mL/d, and the rest groups were injected A. gramimeus 2 350 mg/(kg?d) or ?-asarone 29 mg/(kg?d) for 7 d, respectively. All rats were treated by PTZ 60 mg/kg through intraperitoneal injection next day. After their behaviors were observed for 24 h, animals were sacrificed. The expressions of NMDAR1 mRNA in hippocamp CA1 and CA3 of all rats were detected by in situ hybridization and semiquantitative RT-PCR. Results The results of in situ hybridization showed that positive staining granules were located in the cyptoplasm of hippocamp neurons. The number of positive cells and average absorbance of A. gramimeus group or ?-asarone group was markedly less than that of epilepsy control (P
