Objective To investigate the morphologic changes and hemodynamic parameters of the common carotid artery in obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS)in a porcine model using ultrasound and color Doppler.Methods A total of 12 pigs were randomly divided into model group and control group(n=6 for each).All pigs were fed under the same conditions with exception of th ose in the model group which were kept in a hypobaric chamber for experiments.The parameters of systolic velocity(S)and diastolic velocity(D),resistant index(RI)and S/D in Doppler as well as maximum IMT(intima-media thickness)with two-dimensional ultrasound were obtained in the carotid artery of all animals were determined,and the latter was confirmed by animal dissection when the symptoms of OSAHS appeared in the model group.Results The diameter of the lumen of the common carotid artery in model group(3.18?0.17)was smaller than that of control group(3.47?0.15,P

Stroke is a cerebrovascular disease type with high morbidity and mortality,of which ischemic stroke accounts for about 80％.Now,it is believed that the inflammatory mechanisms play an important role in the progress of pathological physiology of ischemic stroke.Peripheral T lymphocytes infiltrate to the damaged area within 24 hours after cerebral ischemia and are involved in the advance of inflammatory process of brain tissue.As a subtype of T lymphocytes,regulatory T cells are mainly located in the ischemic penumbra; however,at present,its role in ischemic brain injury remains controversial.The research on the mechanisms of regulatory T cells in ischemic stroke may contribute to further understanding of the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke and find new therapeutic targets.

Objective To study the changes of susceptibilities of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to antibiotics in Chengdu area. Methods The MIC values of 12 antibiotics to 100 strains in 1991 and 100 strains in 1996 were determined, and the MIC values to PPNG and non PPNG strains were also compared. Results and Conclusion The MIC values of 6 antibiotics (including penicillin G, tetracycline,etc.) to the isolates in different periods changed significantly (P

Objective To study clinical feature,pathology,treatment and outcome of acute renal failure(ARF) in idiopathic nephrotic syndrome(IDNS).Methods History-taking of 38 cases were carried out all detailly 24-hour urine protein,biochemistry markers,hemorheology,renal histopathology were detected.Results The study fandings that 82 percent of patients were less than 40 years old,76 3 percent were male,74 percent(28 patients) were non-oliguria and 52 6 percent were minimal change glomerulonephritis through the renipuncture,most of the cases had edema of interstitium, by give prednisone of standard dosage,symptomatic treatment or dialysis the satisfying efficacy was got.Conclusions The main features of IDNS complicated with ARF are usual,it is non-oliguria type in clinic minimal glomerulonephritis in pathology,and deficient blood volume leads to occurrence of ARF,but the renal function could be recovered by give prednisone of routine dosage,symptomatic treatment and hemodialysis therapy.

Objective: To explore the object relation in the college students with borderline personality disorder(BPD) by thematic appearance test (TAT). Methods: The result of the social cognitive and object relation scale (SCORS) of BPD students was compared with that of the non-BPD students. Results: The BPD students got significantly lower scores in complexity of representations of people, affect-tone of relationship paradigms, and understanding of social causality. But there was no significant difference in the capacity for emotional investment in relationships and moral standards. Conclusion: The object relation of BPD students is different from that of the non-BPD students. The non-BPD students develop better in complexity of representations of people, affect -tone of relationship paradigms, and understanding of social causality.

Objective To explore the characteristics of uhrasonography of hepatobiliary cystadenoma. Methods The ultrasonographic characteristics of 5 cases with hepatobiliary cystadenoma were retrospectively analysed, and compared with the operation and pathology. Results The ultrasonography of 5 cases was multilocular cystic mass,which seems to be,but not indeed communicating with the biliary tree,in which irregular septation was demonstrated in two-dimensional structure and also with perforator vessels along in color Doppler flow imagineg. And in some cases small papillary tuft and small loci of calcification was noted on the septation. Conclusions Muhilocular cystic mass,locating along the biliary tree, however not communicating with the the biliary tree, is an important diagnostic basis of biliary cystadenoma. And it should be distinguished with other cystic tumor in the liver.
