Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2017;37(4):40-42,45
Objective To study the clinical evaluation of calf blood as a combination of aspirin and aspirin for ischemic stroke and its effect on peripheral blood BCL-2,BAX and Caspase-3,IL-6 and pathogens.Methods 128 patients with ischemic stroke were enrolled in our hospital from September 2014 to October 2016.The patients were divided into observation group and control group by throwing coin method.The control group was treated with oral aspirin tablets and some conventional medical treatment,and the observation group on the basis of this increase in calf blood to the protein injection for treatment,the hemorheology,Barthel index,the national institutes of health stroke scale(NIHSS score)and peripheral blood BCL-2,BAX and Caspase-3 protein content of two groups were recorded before and after treatment.Results After treatment,the total effective rate in the observation group(96.9%)was significantly higher than that in the control group(71.9%),the NIHSS score and hemorheological index of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group,Bclhel index was significantly higher than that of the control group,the content of BCL-2 protein in the peripheral blood of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group,the levels of BAX and Caspase-3 protein in the peripheral blood of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The clinical effect of calf blood protein injection combined with aspirin in the treatment of ischemic stroke can not only improve the daily life ability of patients,but also can improve the hemorheology and peripheral blood BCL-2; BAX,Caspase-3 protein content.

Objective To investigate the imaging features of adrenal rest tumor.Methods Twelve patients of adrenal rest tumor proved by surgery or clinical diagnosis were retrospectively analyzed.Among these 12 patients,12 were examined with ultrasound,11 with MR and 1 with CT. MR and CT were performed without and with intravenous injection of contrast material.The imaging features of adrenal rest tumor were retrospectively summarized and the relevant literatures reviewed. Results The adrenal rest tumors were found in testis in 10 of the 12 patients,and in ovaries and broad ligament in the remaining two.The imaging features of the testicular adrenal rest tumor were summarized as following:all patients had bilateral testicular masses without change of the testicular contour. On ultrasonography,the lesions were hypoechoic, with some hyperechoic areas and appeared highly vascularized on Colour Doppler ultrasonography.The masses showed iso-density on plain CT,and avid enhancement on post-contrast CT images.The masses ranging in size from0.7 cm×1.0 cm×2.2 cm to 2.3 cm ×2.7 cm ×2.9 cm with uniform signal intensity,lobulated margin on MRI.They exhibited iso- or slight hyperintensity on T1 WI and hypointensity on T2WI relative to normal testicular parenchyma.The tumors showed intense enhancement on post-contrast MR images. No abnormality was detected with Colour Doppler uhrasonography and MR in 2 patients of adrenal rest tumor in ovaries and broad ligament. Conclusion Combining imaging features with the typical clinical history,the diagnosis of adrenal rest tumor could be suggested pre-operatively.

[Abstract] Objective To evaluate the effect of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Direct Assay (MTD) for rapid detecting Mycobacterium tuberculosis rRNA and Multi-locus PCR for M.bovis BCG strain typing in patients with suspected extra-pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods From June 2010 to December 2011,47 children and 75 adult patients with suspected extra-pulmonary tuberculosis in Shanghai public health clinical center were recruited.Also 48 non-tuberculosis patients were taken as a negative control.Clinical specimens from these patients were collected.Acid fast stain,solid culture,liquid culture,and MTD were used to detect all clinical specimens simultaneously.Screen tuberculosis strains of the culture isolates by MPT64 antigen assay and use Multi-locus PCR for the BCG strain genotyping of the isolates without MPT64 antigen.SPSS16.0 was used to analyse the results.Results The sensitivity for acid fast stain,solid culture,liquid culture and MTD test was 10.7% (13/122),11.5% (14/122),16.4% (20/122) and 37.7% (46/122),respectively.And the specificity of MTD was 100.0%.Six clinical isolates from children were identified as BCG by Multi-locus PCR typing,the same with chemical tests.Conclusions The MTD assay and the MGIT960 liquid culture are effective and reliable method for diagnosing extra-pulmonary tuberculosis.And Multi-locus PCR can be assisted for the early diagnosis of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis patients with suspected BCG infection.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of atorvastatin on pulmonary fibrosis of rats induced by Bleomycin (BLM). Methods Fourty-two female Wistar rats were randomly divided into 7 groups: the control group(group C) , the model group which was furtherly divided into group 2-week (M2) , 4-week (M4) , 6-week (M6) , and atorvastatin-treatment group which was furtherly divided into group 2-week (A2) , 4-week (A4) , 6-week(A6). Group M and A were induced to pulmonary fibrosis by the method of BLM endotracheal injection, while group C was injected with saline. On 2nd day, group A were given orally atorvastatin by 10 mg/kg · d. Rats were seperately killed on 2nd, 4th and 6th week. After intratracheal injection of BLM, alveolitis and pulmonary fi-brosis were evaluated by pathology, hydroxyproline concentration and PaO_2. Results The lung coefficient of group M2, M4, A2 and A4 was significantly higher than that of group C. The degree of pulmonary fibrosis in group A4 and A6 was improved as compared with group M4, M6. Alveolitis and pulmonary fibrosis in group A were improved compared with those in group M. Hydroxyproline concentration in group A and M were significantly higher than that in group C. While A4 was lower than M4 (P <0. 01). There was a decrease in PaO_2 after exposure to BLM, espe-cially in group M2 (P <0. 01). Improvement in PaO_2 was documented in groups A, compared with M. Conclusion Atorvastatin has centtain efficacy in treatment of pulmonary fibrosis of rats. The effect was significant on 6th week after treatment, which suggest that the effect is correlated positively to the carly treatment.

Objective To investigate the effect of intrathecal administration of a mixture of butorphanol and ketamine on cAMP-PKA-CREB signal transductian pathway in the spinal dorsal ham of the rats with inflammatory pain. Methods Twenty-four male SD rats, weighing 240-280 g,in which intrathecal catheters were successfully placed, were divided into 4 groups randomly (n = 6 each): inflammatory pain group (group IP), butorphanol group (group B), ketamine group (group K), and butorphanol + ketamine group (group BK). The inflammatory pain was induced by injection of 5% formalin 50 μl into the plantar surface of left hind paw. Normal saline 10 μl, butorphannl 12.5 μg, ketamine 50 μg, and a mixture of butorphanol 12.5 μg and ketamine 50 μg was injected intrathecally 30 min before subcutaneous injection of formalin in group IP, B, K and BK respectively.Pain intensity score (PIS) was used to assess pain behavior every 5 min within an hour after subcutaneous injection of formalin. The animals were killed at 2 h after subcutaneous injection of formalin, and the L5 segment of the spinal cord was removed for determination of protein kinase A (PKA) and phosphorylated cAMP response element binding protein (p-CREB) expression using immunohistochemistry. Results Fonnahn administration induced pain behaviour expressed as two phases. PIS scores, PKA and p-CBEB expression, and staining scores were significantly lower during the fast and second phases in group BK than in group IP (P < 0.05 or 0.01), while no significant differences were found in the indices mentioned above between group B and IP and between group K and IP (P>0.05). Conclusion lntrathecal injection of a mixture of butorphanol and ketamine can reduce inflammatory pain in rats, and the mechanism may be related to the cAMP-PKA-CREB signal transduction pathway.
