Objective To observe the effect of tai chi chuan on anneal dyspnea and endurance stamina of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods 80 COPD patients were randomly divided into control group (n=40) and training group (n=40). The common therapy of two groups was the same; but the training group was added with Chen style tai chi chuan training for 30 minutes one day. At the same time, all patients were evaluated about the dyspnesa exponent before and after 3 months training.Results There were no significant differences in FEV1(%), FEV1/FVC(%),heart rate and breath frequency/minute before and after treatment (P>0.05) between two groups, but in dyspnea exponent, there was a significant difference between two groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Tai chi chuan training can reduce the symptom of COPD patients.

Objective To study the impact of gender,gender role and gender traits on depression in adolescents.Methods A sample of 1330 middle school students from seven provinces in China completed Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and Gender Traits Inventory.Results 27.1 percents of participants displayed the symptoms of depression.The mean score of males of BDI was 10.04 ± 8.38 while that of females was 10.33 ± 8.37,indicating that there was no sex differences in depression of adolescents(P=0.535).The participants could be classified into 4 sex role types:masculine,feminine,androgynous and undifferentiated,and the BDI mean score of each type was 9.51 ± 7.66,12.30 ± 8.81,9.14 ± 8.10,10.72 ± 8.66,and significant differences were found among adolescents with different gender roles (P =0.000).BDI scores of the feminine adolescents were the highest among the four gender roles,which were significantly higher than scores of the masculine and androgynous adolescents (P =0.000).Regression analysis indicated that adolescents with more positive masculine traits tended to be less depressive (t =-4.966,P ＜ 0.01) while adolescents with more negative masculine (t =2.574,P ＜ 0.01) or feminine (t =10.566,P ＜ 0.01)traits tended to be more depressive.Conclusion Gender role rather than gender has greater impacts on adolescent depression,and specifically,positive masculine traits represent protective factors for depression.

Objective To analyse the role of haptoglobin in the immunomodulatory in patients with premature coronary heart disease.Methods Clinical data of 60 premature coronary heart disease patients and 40 healthy people was analysed.The general information and serume haptoglobin,hs-CRP and IL-6 were compared.Results There were no statistically difference between the two groups of the general information such as sex,years,BMI,hypertension and diabetes (P>0.05),excepts the smoking history(27/33 vs 9/31,χ2=3.324,P<0.05).Hp,hs-CRP and IL-6 levels in the observer group were signifi-cantly higher than the control group,the difference was statistically significant (97.76±23.08 mg/L vs 65.81±19.42 mg/L,10.43±3.81 mg/L vs 3.05±0.94 mg/L,16.43±4.59 pg/L vs 4.62±1.83 pg/L,P<0.001).Correlation analysis showed that in the observer group Hp and hs-CRP showed a significant positive correlation (r=0.518,P<0.001),and the same results was found between IL-6 and Hp (r= 0.291,P=0.024).Conclusion Haptoglobin level was significantly in-creased in patients with coronary heart disease,which suggested that haptoglobin played a role in the development of coro-nary heart disease,and its level was correlated with IL-6.

AIM: To study the instant effect of circumstance temperature on mechanical properties of single living intact human red blood cell. METHODS: The shape, size, membrane bending elastic modulus and shear elastic modulus of single living intact red blood cell was determined with non-invasive, in situ, real time by employing a static micro-image analyzing and a dynamic micro-image analyzing system. RESULTS: The contact area and diameter of red blood cells were decreased as the temperature increased from 35 ℃ to 43 ℃. The membrane bending elastic modulus and shear elastic modulus of single living intact red blood cell were the least at physiological temperature 37 ℃. CONCLUSION: Red blood cells are easy to carry out their physiological functions such as carrying oxygen to all of the body with the best shape and mechanical deformation at 37 ℃.

OBJECTIVE: To study the in vitro metabolism and enzyme kinetics of di-n-butyl-(4-chlorobenzohydroxamato) tin(IV) chloride in rat liver microsomes, and to identify the major cytochrome P450 isozymes involved in the metabolism of di-n-butyl-(4-chlorobenzohydroxamato) tin(IV) chloride in rat liver microsomes. METHODS: By optimizing the incubation conditions of di-n-butyl-(4-chlorobenzohydroxamato) tin(IV) chloride in rat liver microsomes, the enzyme kinetics in different enzyme sources was researched; the cytochrome P450 isozymes involved in metabolism of di-n-butyl-(4-chlorobenzohydroxamato) tin(IV) chloride were preliminarily explored through in vitro inhibition experiments. RESULTS: Different enzyme source metabolism experiments showed that between phenobarbital(PB) and desamethasone(Dex) induction groups and blank control group there had significant differences, but between the BNF group and blank control group there had no significant difference; the inhibition experiments revealed that ketoconazole had strong inhibition effect on di-n-butyl-(4-chlorobenzohydroxamato) tin(IV) chloride metabolism. CONCLUSION: CYP3A plays a leading role in di-n-butyl-(4-chlorobenzohydroxamato) tin(IV) chloride metabolism, and CYP2C9 may be partly involved. CYP1A has no catalysis action on metabolism of di-n-butyl-(4-chlorobenzohydroxamato) tin(IV) chloride. The Results suggest that attention should be paid to the possibility of drug interactions when di-n-butyl-(4-chlorobenzohydroxamato) tin(IV) chloride is combined with the drugs metabolized by above-mentioned isozymes.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and management of pancreatic injury. Methods The clinical data of 23 patients suffering from pancreatic injury treated by surgery in recent 15 years were analyzed retrospectively. According to the pancreas organ injury scale of the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma, there were 8 cases in grade I, 8 in grade II, 5 in grade III, 1 in grade IV and 1 in grade V. Results Only 2 patients were diagnosed preoperatively out of the 19 patients.About 63.2%(12/19)of the cases had elevated levels of serum amylase. All the patients were cured.In this series,8 cases occurred external pancreatic fistula, 4 pseudocysts, 2 intra-abdominal infections and 1 hyperglycemia postoperatively. Internal pancreatic fistulas were found in all the non operation patients. Conclusions The serum amylase determinations is neither sensitive nor specific for diagnosis of pancreatic injury. Early diagnosis and correct operative pracedure are important to decrease the postoperative complications and improve the outcome.

Objective To explore the relationship between viral encephalitis(VE)and Borna disease virus(BDV)infection,and discuss the clinical features of viral encephalitis patients infected by BDV.Methods The p24 gene fragment of BDV in cerebrospinal fluid mononuclear cells(CSFMC)from 32 patients with viral encephaliris and 34 healthy individuals were examined by fluorescence quantitative nested reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(FQ-nRT-PCR),in which, β-actin was used as internal reference. The clinical manifestations of patients with positive BDV p24 were watched. And the gene sequence,homology and amino acid sequence of positive products were analyzed. Results The positive rate(4/32,12.5%)of BDV p24 in CSFMC of patients with viral encephalitis was significantly higher than that of healthy individuals(0/34,0%),P＜0.05,and the numbers of copies of BDV p24 in CSFMC of VE patients were more than 102/μl. Compared with the sequences of the standard strain Ⅴ and the virus strain H1766 of BDV from horse supplied by GenBank,the homology of the gene sequence of positive product of CSFMC was 95.35% and 98.84% with gene mutation in 4 sites(nt1649 T→C, nt1656 G→A,nt1670 C→T, nt1676 C→T). The genetic relationship between the positive product and the virus strain BDV from horse was the nearest. The clinical features of VE patients with positive BDV p24 were mainly by mental and behavior disorders. Conclusion The occurrence of VE patients in the city of Zunyi in Guizhou province may be associated with BDV infection. The clinical features of VE patients with positive BDV p24 were mainly mental and behavior disorders.
