Objective To compare the effects of vasopressin and adrenaline on cerebral resuscitation in rats. Method Sixty male SD rats were used to set the animal model of cardiac arrest and were randomly (random number) divided into 4 groups (n = 15/group): sham operation group (sham-gro), negative control group (neg-gro), vasopressin group (vas-gro) and adrenaline group (adr-gro). Blood pressure was recorded, and brain tissue samples were obtained. Results There was no significant difference in the recovery rate between vas-gro and adr-gro 30 min after resuscitation (P ＜0.05). The mean blood pressure in vasgro was higher than that in adr-gro within 30 min (1,2, 5, 10, 20, 30 min) after restoration of spontaneous circulation. The measured MDA, SOD and GSH were significantly different (P ＜ 0.05) between each two groups among vas-gro, sham-gro and adr-gro. Conclusions The recovery rate was similar between vasopressin group and adrenaline group during cardiopulmonary resuscitation in rats. However, vasopressin can to maintain the mean arterial pressure at a higher level after resuscitation, which can the increase the cerebral perfusion and reduce brain cell damage.

Reviewing the theory of chaos in the field of nonlinear dynamics, this paper summarized theory of chaos and its applications in medical signal processing including electroencephalogram(EEG) signal?electrocardiogram(ECG) signal?electromyogram(EMG) signal, etc. The foreground is reviewed to advance the study and application of nonlinear dynamics theory in biomedical engineering.

BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that Maca can enhance immune cel function, improve mitochondrial respiratory chain enzymes, and play a role in anti-oxidation and anti-aging.
OBJECTIVE: To observe Maca effects on kidney mitochondrial respiratory function and anti-aging capabilities in elderly rats after exhausted exercise.
METHODS: 10-month-old elderly rats were intragastrical y administrated Maca powder 5 g/kg, once a day, and did treadmil exercise, 5 days in a week. Rats were randomly divided into control group, Maca group and training group and Maca+training group. At 6 weeks after training, rats in each group did exhausted exercise (35 m/min), and immediately received intraperitoneal injection of 2% sodium pentobarbital. The kidney was obtained, and mitochondria were extracted by differential centrifugation. A spectrophotometer was used to measure mitochondrial respiratory chain activity.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Mitochondrial respiratory chain enzyme and antioxidant enzyme activity: mitochondrial respiratory chain enzyme I-III, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities were higher in the Maca+training group than in the control group, Maca group and training group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), but malondialdehyde content was lower (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). (2) Results suggested that the combination of supplement Maca and incremental exercise can improve mitochondrial respiratory function and delay aging in the kidney of aged rats after exhausted exercise. Moreover, supplemented Maca and incremental exercise have a synergistic effect.

The characteristics of medical and health literature novel assessment in institutions of armed forces were described from the secrecy of projects for literature novelty assessment , the limitations of consignee institution , and the non-profitability of literature novelty assessment agency .The major problems of medical and health literature novel assessment in institutions of armed forces were elaborated in terms of the literacy, instability, competency and knowledge limitation of literature novel assessment staff with suggestions put forward for their solution such as strengthening the construction of talent team, joint development and sharing of resources.

Objective To explore the effects of estrogen,sport walking with weight and estrogen plus sport walk on serum lipid,bone metabolism and bone mineral density(BMD) in postmenopausal women.Methods 52 postmenopausal women were divided into the hormone replacement therapy(HRT) group(n=12),sport walking with weight group(Sp group,n=14),HRT + Sp group(n=12) and control group(n=14).HRT group took compound nylestriol,Sp group took sport walking with 5 kg weight and exercise intensity was from 60% to 80% VO2max,HRT+Sp group received two treatments as HRT group and Sp group.The experimental duration consisted of six months.Results The total cholesterol(TC),TC/high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),alkaline phosphatase(APL) and urine calcium(Ca)/creatinine(Cr) were markedly lower in three experimental groups than the control group and before experiment(P<0.05 or P<0.01),HDL-C in Sp and HRT+Sp groups were markedly higher than the control group and before experiment(P<0.05),BMD of spine(L2～L4) and left trochanter in three experimental groups were markedly higher than the control group(P<0.01) and before experiment(P<0.0).Conclusion Both estrogen replacement therapy and sport walking with weight effectively improve serum lipid,prevent and reverse osteoporosis induced by menopause in women.

Objective To describe the methods of treatment of fresh and old fractures of the elbow joint with internal fixation.Methods Ten cases of fracture of the elbow with complete records were reviewed; 9 of them were male and 1 female; 6 of them were Han people and 4 Tibetans. The average age was 31 years. Four cases had open fractures and 6 had closed fractures. Among the cases of open fractures, 3 were treated with routine debridement and internal fixation of the fragments or internal fixation plus advanced skin flaps. One was treated as closed fractures after wound healing. The 6 cases of closed fractures were treated with a single tension band wiring, tension band and screw fixation, or screw fixation. Results The mean duration of the follow up was 8 months. Fracture healing was seen at 3－ 4 months. The range of motion of fresh fractures of the elbow and forearm was  4.2° － 144.2° . The old fracture cases had the range of motion of  31.3° － 115° without restriction in pronation and supination. Conclusion The intra articular fracture of elbow joint must be treated with early surgery to attain anatomical reduction with firm internal fixation. Early functional exercise is also important for the recovery.

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a technology that imaging the ocular structure by the interference of light.OCT is invented and applied in the examine and measure of the retina and choroid.However,the development of spectrum domain make the study of ocular anterior segment structure possible.Anterior segment OCT (AS-OCT) can image the tissue structures of the cornea,anterior chamber,pupil,iris,etc.on the same picture.Also,AS-OCT can be used to measure the corneal surface and curvature after excimer laser in situ keratomileusis,the examination of the angle,iris,ciliary body in glaumatous eyes,the observation of dynamic alteration of the filtering bleb following antiglaucoma surgery and the evaluation of ocular anterior segment tissue after eye trauma.AS-OCT examined at a non-contact,non-invasive way with higher resolution and higher speed.In addition,AS-OCT offers the quantitative analysis of the ocular anterior segment.The clinical application,advantages and disadvantages,prospect of AS-OCT in ophthalmology were reviewed in this paper.

Objective:To evaluate the curative effect and safety of domestic cefmetazole sodium for injection on moderate and severe bacterial infection of respiratory system.Methods:A clinical trial by randomized,double-blind,parallel control was conducted.The control drug was imported cefmetazole.Both groups were administered intravenously at a dose of 2 gram twice daily for 5 to 12 days.Results:A total of 48 patients were randomized into the treatment group and the control group,while 46 of them were enrolled in the statistical analysis of the clinical efficacy,with 24 patients in the treatment group and 22 in the control group.At the end of the treatment,the effective rate was 75.0% in the treatment group and 81.82% in the control one.The bacterial clearance rate and the drug-related adverse reaction rate were 88.89% and 8.33% in the treatment group,and 81.25% and 16.67% in the control one,respectively.There were no significant statistical differences between the two groups.Conclusion:Domestic cefmetazole sodium for injection was effective and safe in the treatment of bacterial infection of respiratory system.
