Reconstructing the three-dimensional finite element model of compression fracture of T_(12) based on the 210-layer consecutive CT DICOM format images from one patient of compression fracture of T_(12) to simulate the hyperextending. Bound the lower of T_(12), a vertical traction at the top of T_(11)and a 3.0 cm-displacement toward the vertebra by three steps at the top of spinous process of T_(11), T_(12) and L_1 was provided. The procedure began computing to reed the results about dynamic biomechanical characteristics of anterior longitudinal ligament. A realistic appearance and full biomechanical properties 3D finite element model of thoracolumbar spine compression fracture was established. The anterior longitudinal ligament was changed from relaxation to tension after hyperextending. The stresses of anterior longitudinal ligament were different when the hyperextending fulcrum was different. The treatment effect of thoracalumbar spine compression fracture by hyperextending is exact. The anterior longitudinal ligament plays an important role in the treatment. Finite element analysis of mechanism of traditional practices has many advantages, such as reliable experimental results, direct displaying results, saving resources and accurate simulation.

Objective:To explore the effect of multi-channel health education model by professional team on drug compliance, disease knowledge and recurrence in rate of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, so as to provide basis for formulating scientific health education measures.Methods:From February 2016 to February 2019, IBD patients visited First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University were selected. According to whether they received health education, the patients were divided into intervention group (100 cases) and control group (138 cases). Morisky medication adherence scale-8 (MMAS-8) and Chinese version of Crohn′s and colitis knowledge score (CCKNOW) were used to evaluate treatment compliance and disease knowledge. The score of MMAS-8, the proportion of poor drug compliance, CCKNOW score and recurrence rate at 48 weeks of follow-up were compared between the intervention group and control group. Two sample t test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:The total scores of MMAS-8 and CCKNOW of the intervention group were both higher than those of the control group (5.58±1.96 vs. 4.47±1.44, 10.87±4.21 vs. 9.23±4.65), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-5.06 and -2.79, both P<0.05). The proportion of patients with poor drug compliance and recurrence rate at 48 weeks of follow up of the intervention group were both lower than those of the control group (56.0%, 56/100 vs. 86.2%, 119/138; 20.0%, 20/100 vs. 31.9%, 44/138), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=38.18 and 4.17, both P<0.05). Conclusions:Multi-channel health education by professional team can effectively improve the drug compliance and disease knowledge in IBD patients, improve patient self-management ability, and reduce the recurrence rate.

Objective To explore the effect and compare the relapse rates of 1-desamino-8-D-Arginine Vasopressin(DDAVP) different withdrawal ways after initial 3 months in primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis(PMNE) patients,in order to provide some evidences and references to use DDAVP to cure PMNE preferably.Methods Two hundred and fifty-six cases PMNE patients who were treated in Hubei Maternal and Child Health Hospital from November 2014 to June 2016 were selected and randomly divided into group A (DDAVP immediate withdrawal group,65 cases),group B(DDAVP day reduction group,58 cases) and group C (DDAVP step reduction group,60 cases).All patients were given DDAVP tables for 3 months.After 3 months for DDAVP,patients who were effective (full respond and partial respond) to DDAVP continued to undergo a withdrawal stage,those in group A underwent immediate cessation,those in group B continued to receive the effective dose every other day for 2 months and those in group C were step by step tapered by 0.05-0.10 mg every 2-4 weeks until completely stopped,the period was not more than 3 months.All patients had a follow-up visit for 3 months after cessation of DDAVP.Results A total of 183 patients completed the study finally,there were 65 patients in group A,58 patients in group B and 60 patients in group C.Initial 3 months the effective rates of group A,B and C were respectively 89.23％ (58/65),89.66％ (52/58) and 86.67％ (52/60),there were not statistically significant difference(x2 =0.309,P =0.857).There were 58 patients in group A,52 patients in group B and 52 patients in group C continued to undergo the withdrawal stage.One month after cessation of DDAVP,the effective rates of group B (88.46％,46/52) and group C (92.31％,48/52) were significantly higher than group A(67.24％,39/58) (x2 =7.030,P=0.008;x2 =10.417,P=0.001),while the relapse rates of group B(19.23％,10/52) and group C(17.31％,9/52) were significantly less than group A(36.21％,21/58) (x2=3.904,P=0.048;x2=4.937,P =0.026).Three months after cessation of DDAVP,the effective rates of group C (78.85％,41/52) were significantly higher than group A (50.00％,29/58) and group B (57.69％,30/52) (x2 =9.859,P=0.002;x2 =5.371,P=0.020),and the relapse rates of group C(32.69％,17/52) were significantly less than group A (55.17％,32/58) and group B (51.92％,27/52) (x2 =5.609,P =0.018;x2 =3.939,P =0.047),while the effective rates and relapse rates were not statistically significant difference between group A and group B(x2 =0.652,P =0.419;x2 =0.116,P =0.733).Severe adverse events related to DDAVP were not observed in any patients.Conclusion Gradual withdrawal after initial 3 months of DDAVP may improve the effect and reduce the relapse rates,the short-term and long-term curative effects of step-by-step withdrawal treatment are both well,while long-term curative effects of every other day withdrawal treatment is not obviously well.

ABSTRACT:Objective To observe the effects of late Na current (INa‐L ) and rapidly activating delayed rectifier K current (IKr ) on ventricular heterogeneity and frequency dependency by using high resolution voltage sensitive optical mapping technology .Methods The model of 12 isolated hearts was constructed in rabbits . Voltage sensitive dye Di‐4‐ANEPPS were perfused into the isolated hearts by Langendorff method .LED source with the wave length of 532 nm was used to record APD80 and APD50 of the left and right ventricles .Experimental groups were divided into 3 groups by perfusion drugs dofetillide (30 nmol/L) ,dofetillide+ATX‐Ⅱ(1 nmol/L) ,and dofetillide +ATX‐Ⅱ +mexiletine (10μmol/L) .The subjects were intervened by the above drugs in order ,and they were self‐compared before dosing .After each drug administration ,the hearts were stimulated respectively with the BCL of 2 000 ms ,1 000 ms ,500 ms ,and 300 ms .Then we observed the changes of APD80 and APD50 in the left and right ventricles before and after the interventions .Results ① In the control group ,APD80 and APD50 of the right ventricle were longer than those of the left ventricle in response to different stimulation , and the differences increased with the decrease of stimulating frequency .② When BCL was 1000 ms ,APD80 and APD50 of the left and right ventricles were prolonged respectively after administration of dofetillide , but the differences in APD80 and APD50 were insignificant between the left and right ventricles (P>0 .05) .ΔAPD80 of the two ventricles increased significantly with the decrease of stimulating frequency . ③ After administration of ATX‐Ⅱ , when BCL was 1000 ms ,APD80 and APD50 of the left and right ventricles increased significantly compared with those in the control group and dofetillide intervention group (P<0 .05) .And the increase of APD in the left ventricle was greater than that of the right ventricle .ΔAPD80 of the two ventricles increased significantly with the decrease of stimulating frequency .④ After administration of mexiletine ,when BCL was 1000 ms ,APD80 and APD50 of the left and right ventricles reduced significantly compared with those of the primary state (P<0 .05) .APD80 and APD50 of the left and right ventricles reduced significantly compared with those of the control group (P< 0 .05) and ATX‐Ⅱ group (P>0 .05) .The increase of ΔAPD80 of the two ventricles became milder when the stimulating frequency decreased . Conclusion ① IKr blocked by dofetillide did not affect the heterogeneity between the two ventricles , which showed reverse‐frequency dependence . ② In the context of blocking IKr , ATX‐Ⅱ increased the heterogeneity between the left and right ventricles and enhanced the reverse‐frequency dependence .In contrast ,mexiletine ,the blocker of INa‐L ,decreased the heterogeneity between the two ventricles and reverse‐frequency dependence .

Objectives: To design the mutants of peptide antibiotics hPAB ? based on its molecular structure. Methods: The three dimension structure of hPAB ? was constructed by protein homology modeling method. The mutant molecules were designed and generated by PCR and inserted into pQE CP4 expression plasmid. The recombinant plasmids were identified by PCR and DNA sequencing and then transformed into Escherichia coli JM109 to express target fusion proteins. Results:Peptide hPAB ? shows one ? helical and three ? sheet in its structure. Its ? helical regions seem play a key role in the formation of active oligomer. Aside from positioning Thr 7 and Lys 10 into contact positions, the orientation of the ? helix is conserved about the oligome core, forming a ridge around it. Additionally, the dipoles of the helices would overlap to create a positively charged region near the core. These dipoles may be offset, however, by the presence of Asp 4 at the base of the helix. Two mutant molecules, hPAB ? 38 and hPAB ? 34, were designed by deleting N or/and C terminal 2～5 amino acid residues based on hPAB ? structure. The recombinant plasmids containing the mutants gene can express interest fusion proteins in E. coli JM109 successfully. Conclusions: Design, cloning and expression of the mutants of peptide antibiotics hPAB ? lay down the foundation for screening of the mutant of shorter peptide chain and having high or same antimicrobial activity.

Objective: To screen the best genetic engineering bacterium for the production of peptide antibiotic hPAB-? and evaluate its fermentation level in bottle. Methods:After analysis of the interest fusion protein expression levels of 8 recombinant bacteria containing 1-8 copies of human peptide antibiotic hPAB-? expressing plasmid respectively,2-5 copies expressing bacteria were chosen for the further study of their bacteria yield,expression forms of the target protein, dissolution of the inclusion bodies and the efficiency of fusion protein purification by affinity chromatography, then the best engineering bacterium with the certain copies of interest peptide expressing plasmid was screened out and its optimal fermentation parameters in bottle were also studied. Results:The recombinant bacterium transformed by 3 copies of interest peptide expressing plasmid was the best candidate for its bacteria yield (3.153 g/L) and fusion protein expression level (27.7%) were the highest among 1-8 copies candidates. The inclusion bodies of 3 copies target fusion protein could be easily dissolved by 8 mol/L urea and captured by Ni-NTA column. The elution of the fusion protein could be directly cleaved to monomer by adding 2 mol/L hydroxylamine, adjusting pH to 9.0 and incubating at 45℃ for 2 h. The optimal fermentation conditions of the selected recombinant bacteria were: culture the organisms with modified M9-CAA media at 37℃ and 160 r/min to (A 600 )≈2.5, then add IPTG to the final concentration 100 ?mol/L to induce the expression of target fusion protein for 5 h. Conclusion:The engineering bacterium containing 3 copies interest peptide recombinant expressing plasmid is the best candidate for the production of peptide antibiotic hPAB-?,and its fermentation parameters are confirmed.
