Objective To evaluate the role of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) in attenuation of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by sufentanil postconditioning in rats.Methods Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 14-15 weeks,weighing 350-420 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =15 each):sham operation group (group S),group I/R,cyclosporin A group (group CP) and sufentanil postconditioning group (group SP).Myocardial I/R was produced by occlusion of left anterior descending branch of coronary artcry for 30 min followed by reperfusion.In groups CP and SP,cyclosporin A 5 mg/kg and sufentanil 1 μg/kg were injected via the jugular vein at 5 min before reperfusion respectively,while the equal volume of normal saline was injected in group I/R.At 10 min of reperfusion,hearts were excised,the myocardial mitochondria were immediately isolated and the activity of mPTP was measured by spectrophotometry.MAP and HR were recorded at 30 min of equilibration,at 30 min of ischemia and at 120 min of reperfusion and rate-pressure product (RPP) was calculated.Arterial blood samples were obtained at 120 min of reperfusion for determination of the plasma cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnⅠ) concentration.The animals were then sacrificed for determination of infarct size (IS) and area at risk (AAR),and IS/AAR was calculated.The mitochondrial ultra-structure was examined with electron microscope.Results Compared with group S,the mPTP activity and plasma cTnI concentration were significantly increased,and MAP and RPP were significantly decreased in the other three groups (P < 0.05).Compared with group I/R,the mPTP activity,plasma cTnI concentration and IS/ARR were significantly decreased in groups CP and SP,and MAP was significantly increased in group CP (P < 0.05).Compared with group CP,MAP was significantly decreased (P < 0.05),while no significant change was found in the other indexes in group SP (P >0.05).Significant mitochondrial swelling,and disruption and disappearance of cristae were showed in I/R group.The mitochondrial structure was more complete in CP and SP groups than that in group I/R,and the disrupted cristae were found in a small number of mitochondria in CP and SP groups.Conclusion The mechanism by which sufentanil postconditioning reduces myocardial I/R injury is related to inhibition of mPTP opening in rats.

Objective Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) can affect both the lumbar zygapophyseal joint and the centrum .This study was to compare multislice spiral CT ( MSCT) and MRI in the diagnosis of zygapophyseal joint lesions in AS patients and assess the role of zygapophyseal joint lesions in the early diagnosis of AS . Methods We retrospectively analyzed the lumbar imaging data of 41 male patients with AS .Forty-one male AS patients underwent MSCT , 18 receiving normal MRI , and the other 23 diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and CE-T1WI-STIR in addition.Using Fisher′s Exact Test, we compared MSCT and MRI in their detection rates of a-pophyseal joint lesions and positive changes in the zygapophyseal joint and lumbar centrum .Then we analyzed the relation between the zygapophyseal joint lesions and the disease duration . Results The detection rates of zygapophyseal joint and centrum lesions were 90.2%and 58.5%on MSCT (P>0.05), and 80.5%and 46.3%on MRI (P>0.05), respectively.MSCT and MRI exhibited sig-nificant differences in the detection rate of centrum lesions (P<0.05) but not in that of zygapophyseal joint lesions (P>0.05). These lesions could appear within 1 year after the onset of AS or ahead of vertebral changes . Conclusion Both MSCT and MRI can manifest zygapophyseal joint lesions , which may develop in the lumbar spine at the early stage of AS , ahead of centrum lesions .This is important for the early diagnosis of AS .

BACKGROUND: Appropriate direction and angle of traction for the vertebral artery type cervical spondylosis(CSA)make significant effect.Selective angiography is recognized as"gold standard"to diagnose the vascular disease.Although magnetic resonance angiography as a non-invasive examination,there exist shortcomings such as a longer time checking,vulnerable to man-made factors,a certain aggressive feature.OBJECTIVE: Through the use of color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI)and transcranial Doppler sonography(TCD)adding the test of turning neck,to analyze the change of blood current parameter before and after the tractions from different directions and angles.METHODS: 240 cases suffering CSA were selected and divided into groups according to anatomy angle of lesion parts(upper cervical segments,lower cervical segments,mixed type)and traction mode,angel(anteversion sitting position 1°-10°,11°-20°,21°-30° groups,posterior extension sitting position 1°-10°,11°-20°,21°-30° groups,neutral position sitting position group).Local massage served as control group.The indexes of vertebral artery of neck part including inner diameter(D)of narrowest location,peak systolic velocity and average velocity of blood were measured by CDFI adding the test of turning neck.The indexes of left vertebral artery,right vertebral artery and basiiar artery including peak velocity(Vp)of period of contraction and mean velocity(Vm)of blood were measured by TCD adding the test of turning neck.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: ①We determined vertebral artery type of cervical spondylosis on the base of anatomic site. On the basis of diseased region,we divided cervical syndrome into 3 types.They were superior part(C1-C3),inferior part (C4-C6) and commixture.it offers clinical guidance for traction therapy from spondylous morphous and mechanics.② We determined the gbest angle of traction.The therapeutic efficacy in posterior extension sitting position occupying 11-20~was better in upper hind neck;the therapeutic efficacy in anteversion sitting position occupying 11-20° was better in inferior neck; the therapeutic efficacy in anteversion sitting position occupying 1-10° was better in neutral position sitting position.③ We knew that CDFI and TCD are the convenient,non-invasive,safe and reduplicative methods to guide traction therapy in vertebral artery type of cervical spondylosis.
