BACKGROUND:No uniform standard for constructing the animal model of exercise-induced myocardial ischemia injury results in the incomparability among research results and impedes the development of sport medicine especial y in the cardiovascular field;thereby, it is imperative to reach an agreement in constructing criteria.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the method of establishing the rat model of myocardial ischemia induced by running.
METHODS:Total y 96 female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into rest control group, isoprenaline group and 10 exercise groups (1-and 3-time moderate-intensity exercise groups, 1-, 2-and 3-week moderate-intensity exercise groups, 1-and 3-time high-intensity exercise groups, 1-, 2-and 3-week high-intensity exercise groups). After exhaustive exercise, myocardium was col ected for morphological observation by hematoxylin-eosin staining, serum levels of myocardial enzymes and cardiac troponin I were detected, and the expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax were detected by real-time PCR.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that the damage degree was more severe with the time of exercise, and the high-intensity exercise groups were more severe than those in the moderate-intensity exercise groups. (2) The activity of serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase and lactic dehydrogenase was significantly increased after 1-week moderate-intensity exhaustive exercise (P<0.05 or P<0.01). From the beginning of the 3-time high-intensity exhaustive exercise, the activity of glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase and lactic dehydrogenase was significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). (3) Cardiac troponin I content change trend was basical y the same as glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase and lactic dehydrogenase changes, but cardiac troponin I content in the moderate-intensity exhaustive exercise groups was significantly higher than that in the rest control group until 2 weeks. The Bcl-2/Bax ratios in al exercise groups were significantly lower than that in the rest control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01);those in the 1-and 3-time high-intensity exercise groups were significantly higher than in the isoprenaline group (P<0.05 or P<0.01);and those in moderate-intensity groups were higher than in the isoprenaline group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). (4) In conclusion, 2-week high-intensity and 3-week moderate-intensity exhaustive exercise can induce myocardial ischemia injury, and pathological analysis, serum levels of myocardial enzymes and cardiac troponin I can be used as the evaluation indexes, while apoptosis regulation genes just as the reference index.

Medicinal plants of the Fructus Amomi containing three species (A momum villosum, A momum longiligu-lare, Amomum villosum var. xanthioides)are well-known, which are widely used as traditional medicines. The mor-phological characteristics of the three origins are very similar, especially in the form of seed. In this study, 60 sam-ples of Fructus Amomi were co llected, and 34 sequences of the Fructus Amomi and their adulterants from GenBank were analyzed. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected. All the ITS2 sequences here (including our ex-periments and GenBank data)were examined for SNPs at the interspecies level. Results from the study revealed that two stable bases at position 135 bp and 199 bp were found, which could be used as a unique marker to distinguish the three origins of Fructus Amomi. The two SNPs in the ITS2 were found to exist stably between the three species, and all the GenBank sequences of the Fructus Amomi. Our findings indicated that SNP-based DNA barcoding could be used as an efficient method for the rapid and accurate identification of the three origins of Fructus Amomi.

Objective To summarize the characteristics of nosocomial infections in the patients treated in intensive care unit (ICU).Methods The incidence of nosocomial infections was monitored in ICU from March 2012 to August 2012.The incidence rate of infection was adjusted with Average Severity of Illness Score (ASIS)score and analyzed in relation to three invasive pro-cedures.Pathogen distribution of nosocomial infections in ICU was also analyzed.Results Nosocomial infection was identified in 357 of the 3 700 ICU patients (9.65%).The overall daily infection rate was 30.34‰,specifically,49.10‰ for ventilator asso-ciated pneumonia (VAP),13.86‰ for catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI),and 1.09‰ for catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI).Of the 688 bacterial isolates,gram negative bacteria accounted for 82.70%.The top three bacterial species were Acinetobacter baumanii ,Pseudomonas aeruginosa ,and Klebsiella pneumoniae .Conclusions ICU is the focus for surveillance of nosocomial infections.Objective investigation is critical for nosocomial infection surveillance.

Objective To observe the effect of peroxisome proliferators activated receptor gamma(PPAR-?)on phenotypic transforming of vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMC)in hypertension.Methods Spontaneous hypertension rats(SHR)and WKY rats both aged 4 months were included.SHR rats as well as WKY rats were divided to be fed with normal chow,and chow added with rosiglitazone(10 mg?kg-1?d-1)for 16 weeks.VSMC were isolated from SHR rats and WKY rats and cultured by patch-attaching method,then respectively divided into 3 groups after treated with genetic recombination technology:normal VSMC,PPAR? overexpressed VSMC and PPAR? silenced VSMC.Expressions of OPN and ?-SMA,which respectively represent the undifferentiated and differentiated VSMC,were detected by Western blotting.Cell proliferation was determined by detecting DNA synthesis and cell counting.The changes of arteries were evaluated pathologically.Results Rosiglitazone decreased blood pressure and ameliorated vascular remodeling of aorta in SHR rats.Aorta of SHR showed an upregulation of OPN and downregulation of ?-SMA,which could be inhibited by rosiglitazone.VSMC from SHR rats showed an upregulation of OPN and downregulation of ?-SMA,and increased cell proliferation.These changes were all inhibited by rosiglitazone.In the cells that overexpressed PPAR?,the cell proliferation rate was lower,and the expressions of OPN and ?-SMA were depressed,compared with the corresponding control cells.Conclusion PPAR-? could inhibit the phenotypic transforming of VSMC,and this might be responsible for the amelioration of vascular remodeling in hypertension.

Objective:To propose a method to evaluate the total body water (TBW) of patients on hemodialysis with urea kinetic model (UKM), and compare it with body surface bio-impedance spectrum (BIS) analysis. Methods:We enrolled 24 adult patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) without hyper-catabolism in our dialysis center. All of them had been on hemodialysis for more than 3 months. TBW was measured with BIS analysis immediately before and after dialysis session, and one hour after hemodialysis session. Spent dialysate was collected; blood samples were taken before and one hour after hemodialysis session, TBW before hemodialysis session were calculated by UKM. Results:Patients were 6 men and 18 women, the average age was (51.2?13.5) years and the average time on dialysis was (33.2?36.7) months. Causes of ESRD included chronic glomerulonephritis (8 patients), diabetic nephropathy (1 patients), hypertensive renal damage (1 patients), interstitial nephritis(two patients), chronic pyelonephritis (two patients). The average ultrafiltration volume was (2.7?1.0) L (0.5-4.4 L) . Plasma urea concentrations were (23.06?5.76) mmol/L and (8.15?2.06) mmol/L before and one hour after hemodialysis session, respectively. There was no significant difference between TBW measured immediately after and one hour after hemodialysis session with BIS analysis [(29.9?8.8) L and (29.8?8.6) L, respectively; average difference was (0.1?0.9)L, P=0.70]. These two measurements correlated very well (Pearson r=0.99, P
