ObjectiveTo assess right ventricular diastolic function in patients with essential hypertension using tricuspid valve flow spectrum and tricuspid annulars motion dectected by echocardiography. MethodsAccording to Ganau′s categories, 124 patients with essential hypertension were enrolled,which were divided into four groups:normal left ventricular configurational group (group Ⅰ, n =32 ), centripetal reconstruction group (group Ⅱ, n =30), centripetal hypertrophy group ( group Ⅲ, n =32), eccentric hypertrophy group ( group Ⅳ, n =30 ). Control group consisted of 35 normal subjects pulsed wave Doppler(PW) data and tissue Doppler imaging(TDI) data were acquired from tricuspid and its' annulus respectively on apical four chamber view. ResultsEPA ＞ 1 was observed in control group as well as group Ⅰ and Ⅱ ,while E/A ＜ 1 in group Ⅲ and group Ⅳ ,there were significant differences between them. Em/Am ＜ 1 was observed in all of patients with hypertension,there were significant differences among them( P ＜ 0.05 ) .ConclusionTissue Doppler imaging was more sensitive than pulse Doppler in evaluating decreased right ventricular diastolic function in patients with essential hypertension, and the decrement of the function was different in degree based on variant left ventricular configurations.

Aim To investigate the inhibitory effect of peptide from Agkistrodon Acutus snake venom(fraction K)on the growth of human ovarian carcimona A2780 cell line and its mechanism.Methods The A2780 cells were treated with fraction K at different concentrations.The proliferation of A2780 cells was assayed with MTT colorimetric method.The histologi-cal and ultras-tructural changes of cell were scored using light and electron microseopy.The apoptosis of A2780 cells induced by fraction K was studied by fluorescent staining.Crystal violet staining and MTT assay were employed to determine the effect of fraction K on A2780 cells that they had been adhered to fibronectin.Result Proliferation of A2780 cells was inhibited significantly by fraction K in a dose-and time-dependant manner.Under electron-microseop and fluorescence microscope,some A2780 cells underwent a typical apoptosis and morphology changes after 24 hours incubation with fraction K.Fraction K could inhibit the adhesion of A2780 cells to fibronectin in a dose-dependent manner.Conclusion fraction K can inhibit proliferation of A2780 cells,which may be related to the mechanism of inducing cellular apoptosis and cellular adhesion.

Anti-tyrosinase assay guided isolation of marine-derived fungus Botrytis sp.led to separation of three ?-pyrone compounds.The structures of these compounds were elucidated by various physicochemical analytical methods.The bioactivities of these ?-pyrone derivatives were evaluated in terms of anti-tyrosinase activity.By correlating the bioactivities of these compounds with their structures,it concluded that the ?-pyrone with pentyl group gives highest anti-tyrosinase activity.

The incidence of spinal cord injury is becoming higher and higher, of which more than half are cervical spinal injury. The main cause of death in high cervical spinal injury is respiratory function failure. The patients who survived must rely on ventilators to sustain life. In view of the shortcomings of ventilators, many researchers tried to use diaphragm pacing technology instead of ventilator to reconstruct the function of respiratory. This article introduced the application of diaphragm pacing technology in patients with cervical spinal injury.

[Objective] To investigate the effect of naringin at different doses on the neuropathie pain produced by lumbar 5 spinal nerve ligafion (L5 SNL). [Methods] Using the method of behavioral test, we tested the 50% paw withdrawal threshold before and after intragastrieal application of naringin in the rats with L5 SNL. [Results] Naringin at 30, 90, 100 mg/kg but not at 10 mg/kg increased the 50% paw withdrawal threshold of 1.5 SNL rats significantly. Single application of Naringin (at 30 or 90 mg/kg) inhibited mechanical allodynia for around 6 hours, and the inhibitory effect persisted for 4 days after the cessation of the drug when naringin (30 mg/kg, daily) was consecutively applied for 7 days. [Conclusion] Intragastrical of naringin could relieve the neuropathic pain produced by peripheral nerve injury.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize advances in clinical application of ureter stent and its biocompatibility. METHODS: A computer-based online search of CNKI (1989/2009) and Medline (1989/2009) was performed with the key words of "ureter, biocompatibility, stent, treatment, complications" in Chinese and English respectively. A total of 51 articles were collected. and 21 were included. The treatment advances and its biocompatibility of ureter stent were summarized, and clinical application advances, biocompatibility and complication prevention of ureter stent were explored. RESULTS: Ureter stent includes polymerizer, metal and degradable material stents. As the common implants in treatment of upper urinary tract diseases, ureter stent functions as stent and internal drainage, and relieve ureteral obstruction, prevent leakage of urine postoperatively and ureterostenosis. Complications following ureter stent implantation include stent shifting, urine reflux, irdtative symptoms of bladder, fouling and stone formation as well as infection. However, these complications can be relieved through positive treatment. CONCLUSION: Ureter stent is an effective approach to treat urologic disease, but the biocompatibility required improvement. Rigorous operation during stent implantation and positive treatment of complication can effectively prevent complications.

BACKGROUND: Although we have gained much information about leadinduced organ damage, the effect of blood lead level on T cell subgroup is yet to be determined.OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of blood lead level on T cell subgroup of children, and the association of T cell subgroup with threshold limit value of blood lead level.DESIGN: Comparative observation.SETTING: The Institute of Molecular Microorganism, Maternity and Child Care Hospital, Shanxi Provincial Children Hospital.PARTICIPANTS: Sixty children, (32 boys and 28 girls), aged 3-6 years with a mean of (4.5±1.5) years old, were selected from the suburbs of Taiyuan city between May 2003 and October 2003. Informed consents were obtained from all their guardians. The enrolled children according to their blood lead levels were assigned into three groups, 13 in Group Ⅰ with blood lead level ≥ 0.48 μmol/L, 20 in Group 2 with lead level ≥ 0.24 μmol/L but ＜ 0.48 μmoL/L and 27 in Group 3 with lead level ＜ 0.24 μmol/L.METHODS: Blood lead level and expression of T cell subgroup were measured with graphite furnace atomic absorption spectroscopy and immunofluorescence methods respectively. Student t test was used in data analysis, and linear correlation analysis was used to assess the correlation between blood lead level and expression of T cell subgroup.level and expression of T cell subgroup.pression of CD3 and ratio of CD4 to CD8 were lower in Group 1 (lead level ≥0.48 μmol/L) than Group 3 (lead level ＜ 0.24 μmol/L) (t=3.27,blood lead level showed had significant inverse correlation with CD3 expression and the ratio of CD4 to CD8(r=-0.689,-0.674,P ＜ 0.01).CONCLUSION: A blood lead level ≥ 0.48 μmol/L, is shown to significantly decrease the expression of CD3 and ratio of CD4 to CD8 in peripheral blood, which may impair the children's immunological function.
