Objective To monitor the production of nitric oxide(NO)and to study its role during ischemia-reperfusion of kidney transplantation in rats using electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR). Methods LEW male rats (age of 8 to 10 months,body weight of 200 to 230 g) were included.Of them 30 were assigned to donor group whose kidney grafts were stored at 0℃ for 24 hours.The remaining 45 rats were equally divided into 3 groups (15 in each group).Group 1 served as controls.In Group 2,allotransplantations of kidneys were performed,and both original kidneys were removed during reperfusions.In Group 3,2 hours prior to the operation,the donors and the recipients were both treated with L-NAME at the dose of 30 mg/kg.Reperfusions were done to the transplanted kidneys and both original kidneys were removed.The production of NO was measured with ERP at each time point before and after blood flow recovery.The creatinine level,GFR and the tissue carbonyl content were recorded on the first and fifth days after operation. Results In Group 2,the production of NO remarkably increased after 15 minutes' reperfusion and kept increasing for 120 minutes. Then the level fell to normal after 210 minutes.In Group 3,the recorded creatinine levels were higher than those in Group 2 at the 24th hour ( P

Objective To discuss the diagnostic approaches of erectile dysfunction (ED),and to improve the diagnostic level of ED. Methods 186 patients with ED were evaluated by IIEF 5,intracavernous injection,hormonal testing,colour duplex ultrasonography,cavernosography and bulbocavernosus reflex latency,respectively. Results Among these ED patients who were evaluated,186,71,28,45,21 and 17 cases underwent the above mentioned examinations, and 46 patients were diagnosed as psychological ED,6 as arterial ED,15 as venous ED,3 as hormonal ED,3 as neurologic ED,10 as composite ED and 103 unknown cause ED. Conclusions Erectile dysfunction is a highly individualized disease.Diagnostic approaches of erectile dysfunction should be individual patient specific,which can be safe,economical and efficacious to the ED patients.

Object To observe the effect of 20S-protopanaxadiol saponins from Panax quinquefolium (PPDS) on total cholesterol, lipoprotein cholesterol metabolism and antioxidative activity in experimental hyperlipidemia rats. Methods The total cholesterol (TC), lipoprotein cholesterol, and lipid peroxidation (LPO) contents, prostaglandin I 2 (PGI 2), thromboxane A 2 (TXA 2) levels, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and blood viscosity were measured in hyperlipidemia rats which have been given PPDS 25, 50, 100 mg/(kg?d) by ip, continuously for 12 days. In addition, fat accumulation in liver was observed. Results Triglyceride (TG), TC, low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) in serum, TXA 2 in plasma, LPO in serum and liver, and blood viscosity were decreased significantly; and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) in serum, PGI 2 in plasma, and SOD in serum and liver were significantly increased by given PPDS [50, 100 mg/(kg?d)] in experimental hyperlipidemia rats. Moreover, PPDS can decrease TC/HDL-c and LDL-c/HDL-c ratio, increase PGI 2/TXA 2 ratio, and inhibit fat accumulation in liver. Conclusion PPDS could inhibit arteriosclerosis by improving cholesterol and lipoprotein-cholesterol metabolism, suppressing LPO, and increasing the activity of SOD.

Object To observe the protective effect of Shexiang Antithrombosis Pill (SATP) on experimental cerebral ischemia in rats. Methods In cerebral ischemia model induced by bilateral common carotid artery clamping and controlled hemorrhage to a mean arterial pressure of 6.7 kPa (50 mmHg), cerebral water content, SOD activity, MDA, Ca 2+ , and LA contents were measured and the ischemic tissue pathology was observed. Results SATP can decrease cerebral water content, lessen pathological change, increase SOD activity and decrease MDA, Ca 2+ , and LA contents. Effect of water pill is better than that of honey pill. Conclusion SATP can protect the cerebral tissue from ischemia injury by suppressing lipid peroxidation. This effect may be related to increasing antioxidase activity and decreasing acidosis of LA and overload of calcium in cell.

Objective To observe the mechanism of action of panax quinquefolium diolsaponins (PQDS) on anti-ventricular remodeling in rats. Methods The model of pressure-loading ventricular remodeling was established through the method of rat’s abdominal aorta deligation. The male Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups,including sham operation group,remodeling model group,Benazepril group,and low and high dose groups of PQDS. The rats were treated with PQDS (with dose of 50 and 100 mg?kg-1 i.g) for 6 weeks. The rats in sham operation group and remodeling model group were treated with normal sodium (with dose of 10 mL?kg-1?d-1 i.g) for 6 weeks. The rats in masculine medicine group were treated by Benazepril (with dose of 10 mg?kg-1 i.g) for 6 weeks. After 6 weeks of treatment,myocardial morphological parameters,the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in serum,the contents of prostacycline (PGI2),thromboxane A2 (TXA2),nitric oxide (NO) and angiotensinⅡ (AngⅡ) in plasma were determined. At the same time,the contents of endothelium (ET) in plasma and myocardium were also determined. Results Compared with remodeling model group,the ventricular weight and cardiac coefficient were decreased significantly in the rats treated with PQDS (P0.05). Conclusion PQDS has protective effects on ventricular remodeling through increasing anti-oxidase activity,reducing the damage of free radicals and vasoactive substance on myocardium and correcting disequilibrium of PGI2/TXA2 in ventricular remodeling etc.

Objective To observe the protective effects of Diemailing Injection (DMLI) on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. Methods The myocardial ischemia-reperfusion model was induced by 30 min left anterior descending coronary occulusion and 24 h reperfusion in open-chest anesthetized rats. The changes of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activities and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents in serum, and prostacycline (PGI2) and thromboxane A2 (TXA2) levels in plasma were determined. Results In rats treated by DMLI (with dose of 2. 5, 5 and 10 mL ? kg-1 i. v. at 30 min after coronary occulusion), the myocardial ischemia size (MIS) was significantly reduced, the AST, LDH and CK-MB activities in serum and the TXA2 level in plasma were declined, while PGI2 level in plasma and PGI2/TXA2 ratio were increased significantly. In addition, the LPO content in serum declined, SOD and GSH-Px activities in serum were increased markedly. Conclusion DMLI has protective effects on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury through improving free radicals metabolism, decreasing TXA2 level in plasma, increasing PGI2 level in plasma and PGI2/TXA2 ratio.

Conclusions Bacterial biofilm formation on the surface of the catheter is an important pathogenetic factor,which contributes to the recurrence and antibiotic resistance of urinary tract infection. Shortening the period of catheter dwelling and using closed drainage remain the predominant prevention and treatment of urinary tract infection.
