In order to take advantage of the model of rat in cardiovascular research, get rid of the influences of the nerve and humoral factors to cardiac function, fix the cardiac load state, and obtain such valuable indices as ejection fraction, left ventricular volume, etc., an isolated working heart perfusion system was set up to observe the changes of the cardiac systolic and diastolic function, ventricular compliance and pumping function. The results of a series of experiments indicated that the stability and responsibility of this perfusion model are satisfactory. The results of coronary ligation and reperfusion were correspondent to those of other authers. This perfusion system can be used in the studies of physiolgoy, biochemistry, pharmacology and pathophysiology.

In order to study the changes of cardiac function in adriamycin-induced cardiomyopathyadriamycin had been given to the rats in a small dosage(1mg/kg body weight, every week) for ten weeks. Cardiac functions were measured after the pretreatment. The results indicated that: 1. arterial blood pressure, cardiac output, stroke volume and heart rate had not changed significantly; 2. left ventricular spike pressure had not changed but ?dp/dtmax decreased by 14%(Control 728.88?38.39 KPa/s, ADM 626.77?25.59 P

Objective To analyze the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis function in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) patients combined with depression with different courses.Methods Forty T2DM without depression patients (T2DM without depression group) and 42 T2DM combined with depression patients (T2DM combined with depression group) were divided into 3 groups according to the courses:＜ 5years,5-15 years,＞ 15 years.Thirty healthy person were selected as control group.The levels of serum adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH),cortisol (Cor),fasting blood glucose (FPG),glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c),24 h urinary-free cortisol (UFC) were determined at 8:00 Am.Results The levels of serum ACTH,24 h UFC in T2DM without depression group were higher than those in control group [(241.7 ±132.6) pg/L vs.(174.1 ± 108.2) pg/L and (96.67 ± 15.92) μg vs.(76.04 ±24.60) μg],and there were significant differences (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01).There were no significant differences in the levels of serum ACTH,Cor,24 h UFC among ＜ 5 years,5-15 years,＞ 15 years in T2DM without depression group (P＞0.05).The levels of serum Cor,24 h UFC in T2DM combined with depression group were higher than those in T2DM without depression group and control group,and there were significant differences (P ＜ 0.01),but compared with those in T2DM without depression group with the same courses,only ACTH was different in ＜5 years (P ＜ 0.01),Cor,24 h UFC was different in ＞ 15 years (P ＜ 0.01).There was significant difference in the level of serum ACTH between ＜ 5 years and 5-15 years,＞ 15 years in T2DM combined with depression group (P ＜ 0.01),Cor had no difference among different courses (P ＞ 0.05),24 h UFC had difference between ＞ 15 years and ＜ 5 years,5-15 years (P＜ 0.01 or ＜ 0.05).In T2DM without depression group,the level of serum Cor was positively correlated with FPG (P ＜ 0.01),the level of serum ACTH was positively correlated with FPG (P ＜0.05).In T2DM combined with depression group,the level of serum Cor was positively correlated with FPG,HbA1c (P ＜ 0.01),the level of serum ACTH was no relationship with others,the level of serum 24 h UFC was positively correlated with FPG,HbA1c (P＜ 0.01).Conclusion With the prolonged courses of diabetes,the function of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis gets worse in T2DM patients combined with depression.

In order to investigate the influence of interleukin 1?(IL 1?) and tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF ?) on gene expression of rat interstitial collagenase (MMP 13 ) in hepatic stellate cells, cells of a hepatic stellate cell line (HSC T6) were cultured in medium containing IL 1? or TNF ? for different incubation periods. Total RNA of HSC was extracted and MMP 13 gene expression levels were measured by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The results showed that MMP 13 gene expression level of the IL 1? group was much higher than that of the control group at 8h, 24h and 48h after exposure to IL 1?. The maximal value was 3 fold of the control group and was at 24h . MMP 13 gene expression level of the TNF ? group was also significantly higher than that of control group at 8h, 24h, 48h, 72h, and the maximum nalue was 4 fold of the control group at 48h. These results indicated that IL 1? and TNF ? might increase the gene expression of MMP 13 in hepatic stellate cells.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the genotype and phenotype of erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) in a family.Methods Venous blood samples were collected from two patients with EPP as well as their asymptomatic parents and grandmother.PCR was performed to assess the mutation of FECH gene,and real-time quantitative PCR to detect the expression of FECH gene.Results A mutation IVS3 + 1G ＞ A was detected in the two patients and their mother.Haplotype analysis showed that both patients with photosensitivity carried the wild-type low-expressed allele IVS3-48C,while their mother,the asymptomatic carrier,harbored the normal allele IVS3-48T.As real-time PCR showed,the expression intensity of FECH gene gradually increased from patients,asymptomatic patients to normal individuals.Conclusion The difference in expression intensity of FECH gene may contribute to the variability in clinical presentation of EPP.

The score of SCL-90 of those wu-bao lived in mountain area and small hill area were higher than that lived in plain (143.8?44.5 and 144.5?48.3 vs. 128.6?32.6). 4. There were three important risk factors which led to the mind abnormal of rural wu-bao elders including the body health status, whether labor sometimes or not, and the satisfaction degree about service. Conclusions:1.The mental health status of rural wu-bao elders was the same as that of common elders.2. The mental health status of wu-bao elders in plain area was better than that of ones in hills area and in mountains area.3.There were three major factors which effected the mental health of wu-bao elders including the body health status、whether labor sometimes or not, and the satisfaction degree about service .

Objective To investigate the factor relateted to the prognosis in HFRS patients with ARF oliguresis stage and the applied chance of hemodiaglysis in HFRS patients. Methods 46 cases of HFRS patients with ARF, with hemodiaglysis applied hospitalized in the department of infectious disease of Luohe centre hospital during 1996 to 2004 were retrospectively investigated and the factor related to the prognosis were analyzed,divided into three groups:successful group,delayed group, died group, and 14 sorts of clinical factors and common lab test items compared. Results Between live groups, the following factors are statistics value,such as the age, platelet,serum albution before HD,frequency of HD and the days of oliguresis stage, the difference of the other factors such as chance of HD,laboratory indicators and complication occuring rate of are no notable. The age of died group is in one′s prime, died in 3 hospitalized days, given HD only 1~2 times,so,chance of HD and days of oliguresis stage were without comparing value,but,the rate of acute complication is 100 percent,the difference is notable.Conclusions The influence of HD time is no notable,and, to prevent acute complication before HD is the key factor relateted to the prognosis.

The effects of superoxide dismutase (SOD) on mitochondrial function after hypoxic and reoxygenated perfusions in isolated rat hearts were observed. Significant decreases in respiration control ratio (RCR) and ADP/O ratio (P/O) as well as activities of succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) and cytochrome oxidase (CCO) were found alter 40 minutes' hypoxia and 20 minutes' reoxygenated perfusion. Adding SOD to the perfusion fluid during the reperfusion period could restore the decreased mitochondfial function, which was shown by increased RCR and P/O as well as activities of SDH and CCO.
