BACKGROUND:The phenomenon of temporary ischemia of the tissues and organs caused by injury is common in the clinic. However, there are few studies on the treatment of ischemia/reperfusion injury. It is significant to investigate the effect of TanshinoneⅡA on improving uterine ischemia/reperfusion injury in a rat model. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of TanshinoneⅡA intervention on improving uterine ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats. METHODS:The rat models of uterine ischemia/reperfusion injury were established by suture method. The rats that were intraperitonealy injected with Sodium Tanshinone IIA Silate injection (20 mg/kg) at 5, 3, 1 days and 30 minutes before the operation were included in the experimental group. Model and sham operation groups were established for comparison. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Spectrophotometry and immunohistochemical staining results showed that at 1 and 3 hours of ischemia/reperfusion, the malondialdehyde concentration and Bax protein expression in the injuried rat uterine tissue were significantly decreased (P < 0.05), superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and Bcl-2 protein expression were significantly increased (P < 0.05) in the experimental group than in the model group. The results confirm that TanshinoneⅡA has a protective effect on uterine ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats.

Constipation has become a common clinical symptom in the elderly. Many factors can result in constipation, including diet,physiological aging, lack of exercise, inappropriate medication, psychological factors, perianal disease, and so on. If the individualized, targetedand comprehensive care interventions that consist of health education, psychological intervention, dietary intervention, medicationguide, functional exercise, passive attention to bowel training and abdominal massage etc. are done well, it can decrease the incidence ofconstipation, reduce a variety of complications and adverse effects caused by the constipation and improve the quality of life in the elderly.So it has important clinical significance.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of combined detection of H‐FABP with cTnI in the diagnosis of myo‐cardial damage caused by hypoglycemia .Methods Levels of blood H‐FABP and cTnI were examined at 0 to 3 h ,24 h ,48 h after hy‐poglycemia diagnosed ,and were compared with the control group .The levels of H‐FABP and cTnI at 24 h after hypoglycemia diag‐nosed were compared among different groups separated according to the decreasing extent of blood sugar (1 .0 to 2 .1 mmol/L ,<1 .0 mmol/L group) ,the duration of hypoglycemia (< 24 h ,≥ 24 h group) and clinical feature of hypoglycemia (symptom and no symptom group) .The sensitivity and specificity of H‐FABP and cTnI in myocardial damage was also statistical analyzed in this study .

Objective: To find out the pathomechanism of low back and leg pain related to intervertebral disc. Methods: The nucleus pulposus of coccygeal vertebral was transplanted to the cavum epidurale of rats to establish the non-compressive model with transplanted nucleus pulposus. The evoke potentials and morphology of nerve roots were observed. Results: Even without mechanical compression, rats transplanted with nucleus pulposus resulted in significant harm to evoked potential and morphology of cauda equina. Conclusion: The biomechanical and/or immunologic inflammatory effect of nucleus pulposus can result in nerve roots injury and is an important factor in the pathogenesis of low back and leg pain.

Objective: Acute pancreatitis(AP) often impairs peripancreatic tissues and involves more distant organs,such as the liver,which would exacerbate the progression of the disease.This study aimed to explore the clinical characteristics of acute pancreatitis-associated liver injury.Methods: We randomly retrieved 156 cases of AP from the medical records retrieval system of Jinling Hospital,of which 102 were complicated by liver injury.The latter were divided into a severe AP(n=44) and a mild AP group(n=58) for comparative analysis of the severity of liver injury and time of recovery.Results: Liver injury occurred in 65.38% of the AP patients,and it was more serious,had a longer disease course and took more time to recover in the severe than in the mild AP group.Conclusion: The incidence and severity of acute pancreatitis-associated liver injury are positively correlated with the severity of acute pancreatitis.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects and safety of erythropoietin on nerve function and brainstem auditory evoked potential in the preterm children with brain damage. METHODS:46 preterm children with brain damage were randomly di-vided into treatment group and control group,with 23 cases in each group. Control group received conventional symptomatic treat-ment as respiratory support,nutritional support,vitamin K supplement and ganglioside. Treatment group was additionally given rhE-PO for injection (CHO cell) 500 IU/kg hypodermically,3 times a week,on the basis of control group. Both group received 3-4 weeks of treatment continuously. MDI,PDI,the content of serum nerve injury factor(NSE,S-100β),latent period and peak inter-val of brainstem auditory evoked potential were compared between 2 groups before and after treatment,and the occurrence of ADR was observed in 2 groups. RESULTS:There was no statistical significance in MDI,PDI,the content of serum nerve injury mole-cule,latent period and peak interval of brainstem auditory evoked potential between 2 groups before treatment (P>0.05). After treatment,MDI and PDI of 2 groups increased significantly,while the content of serum nerve injury factor,latent period and peak interval of brainstem auditory evoked potential decreased significantly;the treatment group was better than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Erythropoietin can significantly im-prove intelligence development,protect the damaged nerve cells and auditory nerve pathways with good safety.

AIM: To express chimeric toxin Stx2a’-LHRH a nd to investigate the cytotoxic activity of recombinant toxin Stx2a’-LHRH to huma n carcinoma cells.METHODS: Stx2a’-LHRH sequences that added the res tri ction endonucleases NcoⅠ and EcoRⅠ at the 5' and 3 ends were amplified by PCR a nd digested with appropriate restriction enzymes. The digested fragment was subc loned into the vector obtatined by digestion of plasmid pET-28a(+) with NcoⅠ an d EcoRⅠ. E. coli BL21 (DE3) cells were transformed with plasmids of interst and cultured in LB medium containing ampicillin. Expression of the recombinant protein was induced by the addition of isopropylthio-?-D-galactoside (IPTG). T h e cytotoxity of Stx2a’-LHRH to Hep-2 cells was observed under the microscop y.

A special electroph oretic band in SDS-PAGE (a glycoprotein of 28kD) was noted. Stx2a’-LHRH killed He lp-2 cells clearly. CONCLUSION: In this study, construction of c himeric toxin Stx2a’-LHRH and its expression were described. Moreover, it has o bvious cytotoxity to Hep-2 cell. These finding could open up new vistas in the s tudy of targeted durgs.

Objective To study the expression of inflammatory factors in the saliva and the stability of implants after implant denture repair in pa-tients with dysplasia of the dentition defect ,and to analyze the prognosis of patients with lipid metabolic disorder. Methods The dentition defect patients with lipid metabolism disorder were selected as the experimental group. Patients with lipid defect were selected as the control group. Saliva was collected before implantation,1 month and 3 months after implantation. ELISA method was used to detect IL-6,IL-1βand TNF-α. Osstell ISQTM radio frequency analyzer was used to detect the stability of the implants and the periodontal status was detected by Florida probe. Re-sults There were no significant differences in the depth of implant probing(PD),bleeding index(BI)and ISQ between the two groups by radio frequency analyzer(all P>0.05). The levels of IL-6,IL-1βand TNF-αin the pre-implantation,1 month and 3 months after implantation were sig-nificantly higher than those in the control group(all P<0.05). The levels of IL-6,IL-1βand TNF-αin the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group before planting(all P<0.05) 3 months after planting,there were no significant differences of IL-6,IL-1β, and TNF-αbetween the experimental group and control group(all P>0.05). Conclusion The patients with dyslipidemia after implantation have good implant stability as those with normal blood lipid ,and the patients with dyslipidemia can also obtain good prognosis.
