ObjectiveTo study the effect of different treatment on prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc. Methods 169 patients with prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc were divided into two groups, the contral group treated with traction and massage, and the comprehensive group treated with acupuncture, physical therapy, and phsiotherapy besides traction and massage. The assessment included index and rate in improvement and efficiency of rehabilitation. Results The index and rate in improvement and efficiency of rehabilitation is better in the comprehensive group than in the contral group. The course of treatment in the comprehensive group is shorter than that in the contral group.

Aim To investigate the effects of angiotensinI-converting enzyme inhibitor enalaprilat on proliferation,Endothelin-1 and Nitric oxide System of neonatal cardiac fibroblasts and to probe its mechanism of inhibiting cardiac fibrosis.Methods CFb was isolated by trypsin digestion method.MTT colorimetric assay was adopted to evaluate cell proliferation,HYP method was used to test the collagen synthesis;FCM for cell cycle;Nitric acid reductase method,radio-immunological method was used to detect NO content and ET-1 activity respectively.Results Ena decreased contents of MTT and HYP dramatically.The percentage ratio of phase G0/G1 was increaseded and the percentage radio of phase S was decreased.NO content was increased and ET-1 activity was dropped in a dose and time-dependent manner.Conclusion The anti-proliferative effects of Ena on CFb can be attributed to dropping endothelin-1 activity and enhancing Nitric oxide.

Objective To study the protective mechanism of Gross Saponin Tribulus Terrestris(GSTT) on the neonatal rat ventricular cardiocytes injured by hypoxia and the effect on protein kinase C(PKC).Methods The hypoxia-ischemia model was performed by treating the cultured neonatal rat ventricular cardiocytes with NaCN.The effect of GSTT(100 and 30 mg?L~(-1)) on the contents of ?PKC and ?PKC were detected by flow cytometry and laser confocal microscopy system.Results GSTT up-regulated ?PKC and ?PKC expressions.The contents of ?PKC and ?PKC in GSTT 100 mg?L~(-1) group(1 325.00?53.25,810.55?36.89;66.22?6.23,40.12?2.21) were increased significantly than those in model group(792.00?32.36,492.40?30.15;32.70?2.78,29.28?4.82)(P

Objective To investigate the effects of angiotensin Ⅰ-converting enzyme inhibitor Enalaprilat(Ena) on proliferation and nitric oxide synthase-nitric oxide system of neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts(CFb)and to probe its anticardiac fibrosis mechanism.Methods The cultured neonatal Wistar rat CFb were divided into control group,model group and three doses of Ena groups.CFb were isolated by trypsin digestion method.MTT colorimetric assay was adopted to evaluate cell proliferation,flow cytometry was used to measure cell cycle,nitric acid reductase method and spectrophotometry were used to detect the NO contents and NOS activity respectively with Ena.Results Ena could inhibit CFb proliferation induced by AngⅡ,there were significant differences of MTT values between model group and Ena groups after treated for 24,48 and 72 h(P

Objective:To study the relationship betwen the mechanism of autoimmune disease and CD4+CD25+ T cell population in NIK mutated mice-aly mice.Methods:NIK mutated mice-aly/aly mice were used as model,aly/+mice as NIK normal control;cell populations were determined by FACS and the thymus structure were analyzed by immunohistochemistry.Results:The CD4+CD25+CD8- population were remarkably decreased in aly mice;and the UEA-1 positive cells were absent in aly mice.Conclusion:The autoimmune disease in aly mice might be the result of deceased the CD4+CD25+ population;the UEA-1 positive cells might play an important role in the development of CD4+CD25+ population.

Aim To investigate the mechanism of protection of reperfused ischemic heart by Gross Saponin Tribulus Terrestris(GSTT).Methods Hearts of 40 SD rats were isolated,linked to Langendorff perfusion apparatus,and randomly divided into 5 equal groups:control group,to be perfused with modified Kreb-Henseleit(K-H) buffer for 170 min;ischemia /reperfusion(I/R) group,to be perfused with K-H buffer for 20 min,exposed to ischemia for 30 min,and then reperfused with K-H buffer for 120 min;Chelerythrine group,to be perfused with K-H buffer with Chelerythrine,a PKC? antagonist for 20 min,exposed to ischemia for 30 min,and then reperfused with K-H buffer with Chelerythrine for 120 min;GSTT group,perfused with K-H buffer with GSTT for 20 min,exposed to ischemia for 30 min,and then reperfused with K-H buffer with GSTT for 120 min;and GSTT+Chelerythrine group,perfused with K-H buffer with GSTT+Chelerythrine for 20 min,exposed to ischemia for 30 min,and then reperfused with K-H buffer with GSTT+Chelerythrine for 120 min.The heart rate,mean aortic pressure and CK-MB were measured 20 min after the stabilization of perfusion,and 60 or 120 min after reperfusion.After the stop of reperfusion,hearts were sliced into 1-mm-thick transverse sections and incubated in triphenyltetrazolium chloride solution(TTC) to determine infarct size.The phosphorylation level and translocation of PKC? from hearts were determined by western blot analysis.Results GSTT significantly reduced infarct size from 63.2%?4.7% in controls to 37.2%?15.7%.And GSTT could reinforce PKC? translocate from cytoplasm to cellular membrane.Chelerythrine abolished these effects.Conclusion GSTT protects the heart from I/R injury partially by activating PKC?.

Objective: To apply the NRS2002 to screen the nutritional status of preoperative patients and investigate the nutrition support in the perioperation and clinical outcomes. Methods: 127 selective operational cases(including general surgery,thoracic surgery,gynecology and orthopedic) were recruited to adopte the NRS2002 which issued by CESPN in 2006,and the nutrition support,energy and nutriment in the perioperation,complications,length of stay and drug costs were investigated.
