Objective To study the main mechanotransduction area and to estimate the overall shear deformation of rat osteoblasts in shear stress loading experiment based on data acquired from the in vitro rat osteoblast experimental, and to study the effects of four-point bending medium flow generated shear stress on cells. Methods Viscoelastic mechanics theory was used in the calculation process, the standard viscoelastic model was adopted for cells, and shear force on the cellular surface was simplified to be uniform. Results The cellular deformation caused by shear force was about one-tenth of that from tensile loading experiment which induced equivalent biological response. Conclusion In terms of mechanical stimulus induced biological responds, the mechanical transduction caused by cellular deformation in shear stress loading experiment is negligible, and the main transduction area is in the cellular membranes experiencing shear stress.

The purpose of this study is to. investigate the pathologic changes of stress cardiomyopathy in ex-perimental rats. The results revealed some changes including myocardial fibers band necrosis by HE stain, early myocardium ischaemic changes by HBFP stain, Ca++overload of myocardial cells by GBHA stain. These methods are important for diagnosis of stress cardiomyopathy and early myocardial ischaemia.

Objective To investigate the effects of estrogen receptor alpha (Erα) gene polymorphism on the efficacy of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in female primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) treatment. Methods The polymorphism of Xba Ⅰ and Pvu Ⅱ sites in No. 1 Intron of Erαgene was detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism in 65 female patients with PBC. The patients were treated with UDCA tablets daily (13-15 mg·kg-1 · d- 1,divided for 3 times oral taking). The variations of patients' serum total bilirubin (Tbil), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), γ-glutamyle transpeptidase (GGT) were followed up totally for 24 months. Results Totally the complete follow-up data had been obtained in 60 patients. Four indicators of XX or PP type patients slowly declined till the end of follow-up point still had not reached the effective treatment standard. Four indicators of Xx type patients were also slowly declined, while the effective treatment standard was achieved till the end of follow-up. Four indicators of Pp/pp or xx type patients were rapid declined to the effective treatment standard. The effective rate of UDCA in PBC treatment was 75.0％ (45/60). The distribution difference of Pvu Ⅱ between the UDCA treating effective group and the ineffective group in PP, Pp, pp types patients and XX、Xx、xx types patients was statistic significant (x2 = 12.13、 P = 0.003 and x2 = 9.95 、 P = 0.007 respectively). The distribution difference of Xba Ⅰ between the effective group and the ineffective group with UDCA treatment in XX, Xx and xx types patients was also significant (P ＜0.05). The effective rate of Pp, pp, Xx, xx types patients [82.61％ (19/23)、80.65％ (25/31) 、9/14、83. 33％ (35/42) respectively] was higher than PP and XX types patients (1/6 and 1/4 respectively).Conclusion Erα gene polymorphism influenced the efficacy of ursodeoxycholic acid in treating primary biliary cirrhosis.

Objective To Investigate the factors affecting the post treatment fever in patients with primary liver cancer (PLC) undergone transcatheter arterial chemo embolization(TACE).Methods Seventeen clinical parameters of 102 TACE procedures were determined as independent variables, while the numbers of days running a fever after the procedure of the patients were determined as dependent variables. A multivariate stepwise regression analysis was performed to determine the factors that had affected the duration of fever. Results The factors that affected the fever after TACE were the dose of lipiodol used, ascites, using gelatin sponge(GS), serum albumin level, a history of fever, pre operative leukocyte counts and age. The volume of lipiodol used had played the most important role in affecting febrile time. Conclusions The amount of lipiodol used is the most important factor affecting the post treatment fever in patients with PLC undergone TACE with a tendency of intensification by using GS. The systemic state and the regional state of the liver before the treatments also play some parts in affecting the fever. Some frbrile cases are probably associated with potential infection. The lasting time of fever can be predicted approximately by building up a multivariate regresion equation.

Objective To study the early diagnostic value of CT for children with cerebral palsy.Methods CT manifestations of 124 cases with cerebral palsy were analysed retrospectively. Results 96 cases of the 124 cases showed a recognisable abnormality,the abnormal rate of CT was about 77.42％ ,and the most common abnormality was cerebral atrophy.Spastic type was the most common clinical type(71.77％ ).The less of the age,the higher of the abnormal rate of CT. Conclusion Although CT isn't the main basis of the diagnosis of cerebral palsy,it's helpful for us to find the pathological changes,and to find the eliology and location.It also provided basis for us to judge the prognosis of cerebral palsy.So CT has significant value in the early diagnosis of cerebral palsy.

Objective To investigate the microsatellite instability(MSI) and loss of heterozygosity(LOH) of BRCA1 gene at locus D17S855 in sporadic liver cancer in chinese,and their influence on the expression of corresponding genes of liver cancer,in order to provide laboratory basis for clinical treatment and prognosis analysis of liver cancer.Methods The following techniques were used in the study: extraction of DNA from paraffin-embedded tissues,polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism(PCR-SSCP),ordinary silver stain,Envision immunohistochemistry and Leica-Qwin computer imaging techniques.MSI and LOH of BRCA1 gene at locus D17S855 were detected and BRCA1 proteins were identified.Results MSI at locus D17S855 was positive in 14 of 74 samples of liver cancer(18.9%).MSI positive rate in TNM I+II(31.6%) was much higher than that in TNM III+IV(5.6%,P

Objective To study the correlation of three different indexes of arterial elastic function(PWV, C_ 1 and C_ 2 , AI). Methods 1306 out-patients with hypertension were recruited. Two or three arterial elastic function were measured at the same time. Large and small arterial elastic indexes(C_ 1 and C_ 2 );pulse wave velocity(PWV)and augmentation index (AI) in 428 cases , C_ 1 , C_ 2 and PWV(n=208), C_ 1 , C_ 2 , PWV and AI(n=60). Results C_ 1 was negatively related to PWV and positively related with C_ 2 . No correlation between AI and PWV, AI and C_ 1 and C_ 2 was found. Conclusion PWV, C_ 1 and C_ 2 are consistent for the arterial elastic function measurement. However, little relevance between AI and PWV, AI and C_ 1 and C_ 2 was shown.

Objective To observe the changes of T lymphocyte subsets and natural killer (NK) cells in patients with late stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) before and after treatment with PD-1 inhibitor and its clinical effect.Methods Totally 23 patients with NSCLC in Guangzhou Modern Hospital from January 2015 to January 2016 were collected.All patients were given 6 cycles of PD-1 inhibitor treatment after chemotherapy or targeted drug treatment failure.Peripheral venous blood was collected before and after treatment to detect the percentage of CD3 +,CD4 +,CD8 + and NK cells in peripheral blood lymphocytes.The curative effects were evaluated by chest CT after treatment of 2,4,6 cycles.Results Compared with before treatment,the proportions of CD3+ (69.56％ ±7.81％ vs.63.91％ ±6.43％,t =2.679,P =0.005),CD4+ (39.01％ ±4.98％ vs.36.09％ ±4.77％,t =2.031,P =0.024) and CD4+/CD8+ (1.82 ±0.48 vs.1.49 ± 0.32,t =2.743,P =0.004) were increased after treatment,with significant differences.While compared with before treatment,the proportions of CD8 + (24.08％ ± 5.13％ vs.26.04％ ± 6.44％,t =1.142,P =0.130) and NK cells (22.68 ％ ± 9.56％ vs.21.45 ％ ± 10.01％,t =0.426,P =0.337) had little changes,with no significant differences.There were 3 patients with complete remission,10 patients with partial remission,8 patients with stable disease and 2 patients with progressive disease when completing 6 cycles of PD-1 inhibitor treatment.Ten patients showed untoward effects such as mild sleepiness,thirst,tussis,pruritus and rash,and they were well tolerable.Conclusion PD-1 inhibitor can improve the patient's cellular immune function,and can achieve a more satisfactory short-term efficacy and acceptable adverse reactions,which maybe bring new hopes for patients with NSCLC.
