This paper adopted UG8.0 to bulid the stent and blood vessel models. The models were then imported into the finite element analysis software ANSYS. The simulation results of ANSYS software showed that after endothelial stent implantation, the velocity of the blood was slow and the fluctuation of velocity was small, which meant the flow was relatively stable. When blood flowed through the endothelial stent, the pressure gradually became smaller, and the range of the pressure was not wide. The endothelial shear stress basically unchanged. In general, it can be concluded that the endothelial stents have little impact on the flow of blood and can fully realize its function.

Objective Propofol has profound influence on respiration. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of propofol on respiratory mechanics during painless induced abortion. Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ women in early pregnancy (45-60 days) aged 17-52 yrs, weighing 42-80 kg undergoing induced abortion were enrolled in this study. Anesthesia was induced with intravenous 2.5 mg?kg-1 and maintained with intermittent i.v. boluses of propofol 30-50 mg. SpO2 and HR were monitored with Nellcor N-180 pulse oximeter. Respiratory mechanics was monitored with IFA-300 anemometer (TSI Co. USA) . The parameters measured included inspiratory / expiratory maximal air-flow velocity, inspiratory / expiratory mean air flow velocity, mean inspiratory and expiratory time, respiratory rate, inspiratory / expiratory air flow volume, dynamic inspiratory and expiraory airway pressure and indidence of apnea.Results SpO2 decreased significantly during maintenance of anesthesia with propofol. The mean and maximal inspiratory / expiratory airflow velocity and the inspiratory / expiratory airflow volume all decreased significantly during propofol anesthesia. The dynamic inspiratory / expiratory airway pressure significantly decreased during propofol anesthesia. The respiratory rate was significantly higher during propofol anesthesia while the mean inspiratory /expiratory time became shorter. Three patients developed apnea during induction of anesthesia with propofol (7.5%) . Spontaneous breathing returned within 1 min. Conclusion Spontaneous breathing is significantly depressed during propofol anesthesia in terms of respiratory mechanics. Care should be taken to maintain oxygenation and ventilation of the patient.

Chlamydia pneumoniae is one of the most common pathogens causing community acquired pneumonia.It may activate immune cells,release mediators of inflammation and cytokine and cause immune response.Researches on its signal transduction after infection through Toll-like receptors may help prevent and cure chlamydia penumoniae infection disease.

From 1952 to 1990, 21 cases of malignant tumor of the appendix, including 14 cases of carcinoid tumor of appendix, 4 cases of appendix adenocarcinoma, 2 cases of appendix lymposarcoma and 1 case of appendix cystocarcinoma, were treated in the Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College Among these 21 patients, 16 underwent appendectomy alone, 5 underwent appendectomy first and a right hemicolectomy was performed on later All of the 21 patients were followed up for 5～10 years,the survival rate was 90 5% and 90 5% respectively So if a malignant tumor of the appendix was suspected, a biopsy during operation should be done to determine the pathological type If the diagnosis was clear, the choice of operation mode must be made according to the size and the pathological type of the tumor In selective patient, a right hemicolectomy must be performed on

Seventy-six cases of Asherman's syndrome (traumatic amenorrhea) were analyzed clinically. 70% of the patients were young women of the ages from 20 to 30. There was the history of previous abortion with once or twice of curettage in 81.2% of the cases. 66 out of the 76 cases complained of amenorrhea, 57 of periodic lower abdominal pain, and 10 of hypomenorrhea.When the intrauterine adhesions are explored, diagnostic curettage to get some endometrium for histologic study should be done since it is essential to diagnosis as well as to treatment. 57 out of the 76 were cured with one procedure of probe isolation of the adhesions and dilatation. The remained 19 cases were treated with combined Chinese traditional and Western medicine and 15 were cured and 4 improved. 24 women of those cured underwent a normal full term pregnancy and gave birth to a normal child. No vaginal bleeding or adhesion of placenta was observed after delivery in those women.

OBJECTIVE The roles of sense neuropeptides in the allergic rhinitis were investigated by observing the symptoms and changes in the level of the neuropeptides in rabbits sensitized after severing of their sphenoidpalatine or sympathetic nerve. METHODS ①SP and CGRP were observed in nasal mucosa of rabbits in four weeks. ② Twenty rabbits were divided into three groups: group C(sphenoidpalatine nerve severed),group D(sympathetic nerve severed) and group E(not operated on).Groups C and D were sensitized three days after the operation. Four rabbits were killed at two and four weeks post-operation in groups C and D. RESULTS ①There was no difference between SP and CGRP levels in four weeks. ②The levels of SP in the nasal mucosa of group C at two and four weeks after sensitization were 16.1?0.77 and 15.02?0.24, respectively. The levels of SP in group D were 34.13?1.45 and 33.23?1.99, respectively. The levels of SP in group E were 20.68?0.01 and 20.56?1.27, respectively. The level of SP in Group C was lower than in Group E. The level of SP in Group D was higher than in Group E. The level of CGRP correlates with the level of SP. CONCLUSION SP and CGRP levels are correlated with the occurrence and development of allergic rhinitis.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy, especially the comprehensive improvement of blood glucose and lipid of probucol and metformin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus with hyperlipidemia. Methods:Totally 105 patients with type 2 di-abetes mellitus complicated with hyperlipidemia were randomly divided into the control group1 (35 cases), the control group 2 (34 ca-ses) and the observation group (36 cases). The control group 1 was treated with diet control, exercise and metformin, the control group 2 was treated with rosuvastatin calclum tablets based on the group 1, and the observation group was treated with probucol based on the group 1. The three groups were continuously treated for 12 weeks. The improvement of the fasting blood-glucose (FPG), 2h postprandial blood glucose (PBG), hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), fasting insulin levels (Fins), insulin resistance indices (HOMA-IR) and TC, TG and HDL-C, and the adverse reactions among the three groups were compared. Results:The total effective rate in the ob-servation group was higher than that in the control group 1 and 2 (P<0. 05). After the treatment, all the indices of blood glucose and lipid in the three groups were significantly improved (P<0. 05), and those of blood glucose in the observation were better than those in the control group 1 and 2(P<0. 05), those of blood lipid in the observation group and the control group 2 were better than those in the control group 1 (P<0. 05), and the level of HDL-C in the observation group was much higher than that in the control group 2 (P<0. 05). The adverse drug reactions in the three groups were mild without statistical significance (P>0. 05). Conclusion:Probucol as one of lipid-lowing drugs with antioxidant action combined with metformin can improve blood lipid and lower blood glucose at the same time, which is worthy of promoted application in clinics.

Spermatogenesis is a complex developmental process in which a diploid progenitor germ cell transforms into highly specialized spermatozoa. During spermatogenesis, membrane remodeling takes place, and cell membrane permeability and liquidity undergo phase-specific changes, which are all associated with the alteration of membrane lipids. Lipids are important components of the germ cell membrane, whose volume and ratio fluctuate in different phases of spermatogenesis. Abnormal lipid metabolism can cause spermatogenic dysfunction and consequently male infertility. Germ cell membrane lipids are mainly composed of cholesterol, phospholipids and glycolipids, which play critical roles in cell adhesion and signal transduction during spermatogenesis. An insight into the correlation of membrane lipids with spermatogenesis helps us to better understand the mechanisms of spermatogenesis and provide new approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of male infertility.

BACKGROUND: Hereditary susceptibility is an important role in episode and development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Aggregation of monocyte in kidney tissue, differentiation to histocyte and reinforcement of signal are possibly closed to episode and development of DN in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Regulated upon activation normal T-cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) is a chemokine of C-C subtribe. It can mediate infiltration and activation of inflammatory cells and cause injuries of renal corpuscle and renal mesenchymal. This may be a key mechanism of episode and development of DM. Thus, RANTES gene may be one of the susceptible gene of DN. OBJECTIVE :To investigate correlation between RANTES gene promoter -28C/G polymorphism and DN in type 2 DM in Chinese. DESIGN: Case-contrast study. SETTING: Department of Endocrine, Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College; Center of Diabetes Mellitus of Guizhou Province. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 143 patients with type 2 DM were recruited from the Department of Endocrine, Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College and Department of Endocrine,Guizhou People's Hospital from September 2003 to September 2005. Among them, 53 cases had normoalbuminuria, 54 microalbuminuria and 36 macroalbuminuria. Another 55 healthy subjects who were selected from Center of Health Examination, Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College were regarded as control group. METHODS: 3-5 mL peripheral venous blood was collected from all subjects. RANTES gene promoter -28C/G genotype was detected with polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism technique. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Allele frequency and genotypic frequency of RANTES gene promoter -28C/G; ② risk factor of DN was analyzed with Logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: All 198 subjects were involved in the final analysis. ① Comparison of CG genotypic frequency of -28C/G: There was no significant difference between normal control group and DM group (P＞ 0.05); however, that in microalbuminuria group and macroalbuminuria group was higher than that in normoalbuminuria group (24.1％, 47.2％, 9.4％, P ＜ 0.05), and that in macroalbuminuria group was also higher than that in microalbuminuria group (P ＜ 0.05). ② Frequency of G allele of -28C/G: There was no significant difference between normal control group and DM group (P ＞ 0.05); however, that in micro albuminuria group and macrealbuminuria group was higher than that in microalbuminuria group (12.0％, 23.6％, 4.7％, P ＜ 0.05), and that in macroalbuminuria group was also higher than that in microalbuminuria group (P＜ 0.05). ③ Logistic regression analysis showed that positive genotype of -28G was related to DN (95％ Cl:1.402-15.032, P =0.012). CONCLUSION: Positive genotype of RANTES gene promoter-28G may be related to DN.
