Artemisinin and its derivatives,which are known as traditional antimalarial drugs,have anticancer activities by inhibiting cell proliferation,inducing apoptosis of tumor cells,and resisting angiogenesis,etc.The activity of inducing apoptosis has become high-light for studies recently.Most scholars believed this activity was obtained by increasing apoptosis-inducing genes(Bax),decreasing anti-apoptosis genes(Survivin,Bcl-2),and regulating two-ways controlling genes,and finally led to the distinctive morphological changes.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of Cornus officinalis polysaccharide on learning and memory ability of vascular dementia (VD) model rats and its mechanism. METHODS:30 rats were randomly divided into sham operation (normal saline) group,model(normal saline)group and C. officinalis polysaccharide(0.28 g/kg)group. Except sham operation group,VD model was induced in other groups and given relevant medicine intragastrically once a day. After 4 weeks,the frequency of leaping over original platform position,water maze mean escape latencies,platform retention time and average swimming distance were detect-ed,and the mRNA and protein expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)and apoptosis related gene Bcl-2 in hippo-campal tissue of rats were determined. RESULTS:Compared with sham operation group,learning and memory ability of rats in model group weakened,manifesting as the frequency of leaping over original platform position decreased,water maze mean escape latencies prolonged,platform retention time shortened,average swimming distance extended(P<0.05);mRNA and protein expres-sion of BDNF and Bcl-2 in hippocampus decreased significantly (P<0.05). Compared with model group,learning and memory ability of rats in C. officinalis polysaccharide group increased,manifesting as the frequency of leaping over original platform posi-tion increased,water maze mean escape latencies shortened,platform retention time prolonged,average swimming distance short-ened(P<0.05);mRNA and protein expression of BDNF and Bcl-2 in hippocampus was enhanced significantly(P<0.05). CON-CLUSIONS:C. officinalis polysaccharide can improve the learning and memory ability of VD rats,and its mechanism may be asso-ciated with the expression up-regulation of BDNF and Bcl-2 in hippocampus.

Multi-partners,unprotected sex,and alcohol and drug use are the main causes of HIV/STD transmission among MSM,and related interventions should be taken promptly.MSM are good candidates for studies and interventions as the retention rate is relatively high among this population group.

Objective To study the effects of the duration and degree of the peripheral facial paralysis due to middle ear cholesteatoma on the recovery of postoperative nerve functions.Methods The clinical data of 30 cases (single ear) of patients with cholesteatoma complicated with facial paralysis were retrospectively analyzed.The mean age was 54.7±8.9 years old (range 21~77years old) including 17 males and 13 females.The duration of facial paralysis, degree and location of facial nerve injury,surgical timing of facial nerve decompression,recovery of facial paralysis after surgery were followed up.According to the course of paralysis, the patients were divided into ≤2 months group (14 cases) and >2 months group (16 cases).According to the degree of paralysis, the patients were divided into the incomplete facial paralysis group (III-IV grade,14 cases) and the complete facial paralysis group (V-VI grade,16 cases).The influence of the course and degree of paralysis on the postoperative recovery of neurological function were analyzed by the Fisher exact probability test.Results Three cases underwent open radical surgery with no facial nerve damage confirmed by intraoperative exploration, and their postoperative facial nerve functions were fully restored.Facial nerve canal damage was found in 27 cases, accompanied by facial nerve congestion, edema or granulation formation.Among them, the facial nerve damage location was the tympanic segment in 20 cases.The open radical operation and local facial nerve decompression were carried out, and the postoperative facial paralysis recovery rate was 46.67%(14/30).The facial nerve function recovery rate in less than 2 months group was higher than the >2 months group (P<0.05).The facial nerve function recovery rate of the incomplete paralysis group was higher than the complete facial paralysis group (P<0.05).Conclusion This study suggests that facial nerve damage most occurred in the tympanic segment of the facial nerve.Radical mastoidectomy and local facial nerve decompression are effective for the treatment of middle ear cholesteatoma complicated with facial paralysis.The shorter course and lighter degree of paralysis lead to the better postoperative recovery of neurological function.

Objective To discuss value of transvaginal ultrasound combined with abdominal ultrasound in the diagnosis of gynecologic acute abdomen.Methods 102 cases with gynecologic acute abdomen who were treated in our department were selected,they got through transvaginal ultrasound combined with abdominal ultrasound.The diagnosis result and pathologic diagnosis,simple ultrasound diagnosis result were compared.Results Compared with transvaginal ultrasound,abdominal ultrasound diagnosis coincidence rate obviously decreased,the difference was statistically significant (t =5.17,P <0.05 ),ultrasound combination diagnosis coincidence rate all obviously increased,the difference was statistically significant (t =11.25,P <0.01 ).The highest ultrasound combination diagnosis coincidence rate was heterotopic pregnancy (100.00%),the lowest was perforation uterus (75.00%). Average ultrasound combination diagnosis coincidence rate in this research was 86.78%,misdiagnosis rate was 1.96%,and missed diagnosis rate was 3.92%.Conclusion Accuracy rate of transvaginal ultrasound combined with abdominal ultrasound pathologic diagnosis results,have these following advantages,such as high accuracy rate,rapid diagnosis,suitable for gynecologic acute abdomen diagnosis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the change of Bcl-2 and P53 expresssion after whiter matter damage in neonatal rats. Methods100 rats (2 days old) were randomly divided into two groups: control group and periventricular leucumalacia (PVL) group. Control group received normal saline 5 mg/kg intraperitoneal injection, PVL group received lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 5 mg/kg intraperitoneal injection. The expression of Bcl-2 and P53 was measured 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h after operation with immunohistochemical staining. ResultsThe expression of Bcl-2 increased 6 h after operation, and to the top 48 h after operation in the PVL group, which was significantly different compared with the control group (P<0.01). The expression of P53 increased at 6 h after operation, and to the top 12 h after operation in the PVL group, which was significantly different compared with the control group (P<0.01). ConclusionThe expression of Bcl-2 and P53 increased in the white matter injuried neonatal rats induced by LPS.
