A novel suspension array technology was established for the detection of three kinds of veterinary drug residues: chloramphenicol, clenbuterol and 17-β-estradiol. The three conjugates in which veterinary drugs coupled with BSA were immobilized on the solid carrier of the suspension microarray-polystyrene fluorescent microspheres/beads as detective probes. Indirect competitive technology was employed. Competitive reactions between the veterinary drugs in the aqueous phase and the veterinary drugs-BSA conjugates on the beads for coupling with their complimentary specific biotinylated monoclonal antibodies were carried out. And then, straptavidin-phycoerythrin was added for coupling and the fluorescent signals were captured. Afterwards the detective standard curves were plotted. The regular ELISA standard curves of the three veterinary drugs were also plotted. Comparison between suspension array and regular enzymE-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was in the respects of the detective technology, the detection limits, the detective ranges, the samples detection and the multi-analysis. Suspension array technology is distinct advantageous except for specificity. There was well consistent performance between the two methods. The high-throughput suspension array provides a novel method for multi-analysis of veterinary drugs with simple operation, sensitive, rapid and low costing.

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of dengue viral loads and IgM antibody in patients with dengue fever ( DF) and to analyze their relationships with disease severity. Methods A to-tal of 1 508 serum samples were collected from 1 140 hospitalized patients including 1 050 mild cases and 90 severe cases within 10 days after the onset of DF in Guangzhou in 2014. The viral loads were determined by using fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR. ELISA was performed to measure the dengue virus ( DENV)-spe-cific IgM antibody. Results In general, the DENV viral loads in patients declined gradually from 108 copies/ml on day 1 to 103 copies/ml on day 10 after the onset of DF. The viral loads in severe cases were significantly higher than those in mild cases on days 5 to 7 (P<0. 05). The positive rates of DENV RNA in serum samples also decreased with the disease progression from 100% on day 1 to 40% on day 10. Com-pared with the mild cases, the patients with severe DF showed higher positive rates of DENV RNA on day 6 and day 8 (P<0. 05). The DENV-specific IgM antibody could be detected on day 2 and the secretion of IgM antibody increased gradually with the disease progression. The levels of IgM antibody in mild cases were sig-nificantly higher than those in severe cases (P<0. 001). The positive rates of IgM antibody in patients in-creased form 8% on day 2 to 95% on day 6. Higher positive rates of IgM antibody were detected in mild ca-ses on days 5 and 6 as compared with those in patients with severe DF (P<0. 05). Conclusion High viral load and low level of IgM antibody during the fastigium of DF were closely associated with the disease severity.

Objective To observe the effect of γ-ray irradiation on CD4 + CD25 + regulatory T cells (Tregs),and to investigate the mechanism of immune injury induced by irradiation.Methods The thymus and spleen of C57BL/6 mice were taken and weighted 1-28 d after γ-ray irradiation,and the organ coefficients were calculated.The amount of mouse peripheral WBC measured,CD4 + T cells and Tregs in peripheral and splenic were analyzed by flow cytometry.Results Coefficients of mouse thymus and spleen decreased significantly 1 d post irradiation,and reached to the bottom at 7 d.Coefficients did not recover to control level 28 d after radiation.Peripheral WBC continuously decreased and reached the bottom at 7 d,and did not recover to control level up to 28 d postirradiation.Peripheral CD4 + T lymphocyte temporally reduced at 1 d,while it increased at 7 d,and it approached to control level at 28 d after radiation.Splenic CD4 + T cells slightly reduced at 7 d however,they basically maintained as the same level as control 14 d and 28 d after radiation.Peripheral Tregs ascended at 1 d and reached the peak at 7 d,and reduced at 14 d and 28 d postirradiation,although they still were significantly higher than those of control group.At the same time,splenic Tregs increased significantly and achieved peak value at 1 d,and then gradually decreased and reached the minimum at 28 d after irradiation,which were significantly lower than those of control group( t =2.731,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Mouse thymus and spleen were injured severely,and the number of immunocytes decreased after 6 Gy whole body γ-ray irradiation.However,Tregs with immunosuppressive action increased significantly postirradiation,revealing that Tregs were closely correlated with immune function depression and immunomodulation imbalance induced by ionizing radiation.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of doxazosin(DOX) and metoprolol( MET) on vascular remodeling in rats with abdominal aorta coarctation (AAC). METHODS An animal model was established by AAC. Two weeks later, the rats were treated with DOX (10 mg.kg-1 per day) or MET (20 mg.kg-1 per day) for six weeks. Blood pressure was measured using carotid artery intubation with a MP150 polygraph. The media thickness, wall cross-sectional area and thickness / internal diameter ratio were calculated by morphometry. Vascular fibrosis was evaluated by Masson′s trichrome staining. The collagen and fibronectin expression in vascules was measured by Western blotting. RESULTS Compared with the sham group 〔(17.6±0.5)kPa〕, the mean arterial blood pressure in the model group〔(23.3±0.7)kPa〕 was significantly increased(P<0.05), but was lowered by DOX 〔(20.5±0.7)kPa〕 and MET 〔(19.0±0.4) kPa〕 (P<0.05). Moreover, HE staining showed that tunica media thickness, artery vessel area and thickness / inner diameter in the model group were increased by 39.5%, 46.4% and 27.0%(P<0.05), respectively. The tunica media thickness was decreased by 16.0% and 26.1%( P<0.05), respectively, the artery vessel area by 22.8% and 26.1%(P<0.05), respectively, and the thick-ness / inner diameter by 17.0% and 26.0%( P<0.05) when the rats were treated with DOX and MET. Masson staining showed that the collagen accumulation in vascules increased, suggesting that AAC induced fibrosis. Meanwhile, vascular fibrosis induced by AAC was also reduced by MET or DOX. Western blotting also proved that the increase of collagen and fibronectin induced by AAC could be attenuated by DOX and MET(P<0.05). CONCLUSION DOX and MET are effective in suppressing the role of norepi-nephrine in vassels, which can attenuate AAC-induced vassels remodeling by preventing the binding between norepinephrine and adrenoceptors.

Objective: To study the effects of different holding gun methods and gun weight on health when standing guard, and propose a way to support the health of long-term standing guard soldiers. Methods: We created different percentile mannequins by Classic JACK, and adjusted the standing guard posture based on its standards for soldiers. The pressure on lumbar L4/L5 and moment on ankles and knees were analysied for different holding gun methods and gun weight. Then the mathematical models of joint load, gun weight and body mass index were studied by multiple regression analysis. Results: Holding gun methods and gun weight influence the force characteristics on ankles, knees and lumbar L4/L5. Holding gun with a brace and hands applying downward force -2 kgf could significantly reduce lumbar L4/L5 pressure. When the hand force is -5, -3, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 kgf, and the weight of the gun is 0, Lumbar vertebrae L4/L5 joint pressure of people with different body mass index(P₁, P₅, P₅₅, P₉₅, P₉₉) are the smallest, respectively 269, 281, 321, 408, 444 N, and the same change trend occurs when the weight of the gun is 2, 4, and 8 kg.The moment on ankles and knees were less with the same holding gun method and the hands downward force ranged from 0 to -4 kgf, and the higher the body mass index is, the more the hands downward force needed to make the moment on ankles and knees zero. That is, the moment on ankles could be zero when the hands downward force ranged from -1 to -3 kgf, the moment on knees could be zero when the hands downward force ranged from -1.1 to -3.7 kgf. Conclusion To reduce the pressure on lumbar L4/L5 and moment on ankles and knees, so as to cut down occupational risk of long-standing operation, we advise the long-term standing guard soldiers holding gun with a brace and hands applying downward force -2 kgf.

Objective To observe the effects of liraglutide on GRP78,ATF4,CHOP and TRB3 protein and mRNA expression in rats which fed with high fat diet,and to explore the effect of liraglutide on ATF4/CHOP pathway of pancreas in rats fed with high fat diets.Methods Forty-four male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the control group,high fat group,intervention group 1 and intervention group 2,11 cases in each group.The control group was fed with common food,other 3 groups were fed with high fat diet for 8 weeks.Then the intervention group 1 was given with liraglutide (100 μg · kg-1 · d-1) by subcutaneous injection;the intervention group 2 was given liraglutide (200 μg · kg-1 · d-1) by subcutaneous injection.After 2 weeks medication intervention,the rats were killed.Five rats were taken from each group and performed the hyperinsulinemic englycemic clamp experiment under waking state for calculating the glucose infusion rate (GIR).The fasting blood glucose (FBG),fasting insulin (FINS),serum free fatty acid (FFA),total cholesterol (TC),triglyeeride (TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high density lipoprotein(HDL) were examined,and islet beta cell function index(HOMA-β) were calculated.PCR and Western blot method were used to detect the expression of pancreas GRP78,ATF4,CHOP and TRB3 protein and mRNA.Results Compared with the control group,the levels of FBG,FFA,TC,FINS,TG and LDL-C in the high fat group were significantly increased,the levels of HDL-C,GIR and HOMA-β were significantly decreased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01);compared with the high fat group,the levels of HDL-C,GIR and HOMA-β in the intervention group 2 were increased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),the other indicators were significantly decreased;compared with the intervention group 1,blood FGB,FFA,TC in the intervention group 2 were decreased,while the levels of GIR and HOMA-β were increased(P＜0.05).Compared with the control group,expression of GRP78,ATF4,CHOP and TRB3 protein and mRNA in the high fat group were significantly increased;compared with the high fat group,the expression of GRP78,ATF4,CHOP and TRB3 protein and mRNA in the intervention group 1 and 2 were gradually decreased with the liraglutide concentration increase.Conclusion Liraglutide can improve insulin resistance and protect pancreatic beta cells in a concentration-dependent manner,its mechanisms may involve in the pancreatic endoplasmic reticulum ATF4/CHOP pathway.

Objective:To investigate the effects of 40 Hz and 70 Hz frequency flash stimulation on the ability of learning memory and autonomous exploratory in young rats.Methods:Twenty-seven SPF grade male SD rats aged 19-21 days were divided into control group (Ctr group), 40 Hz group and 70 Hz group with 9 in each group according to the random number table.The rats in Ctr group were not given flash stimulation, while rats in the 40 Hz and 70 Hz group were received 40 Hz, 70 Hz flash stimulation (1.5 h/d for 39 days), respectively.The Morris water maze experiment was used to assess the learning and memory ability of rats, and the open field experiment was used to evaluate the ability of autonomous exploratory of rats.Nissl staining was used to assess the morphology of Nissl bodies in the hippocampus CA1 region of the rats.The local field potentials (LFPs) collected from the primary visual cortex (V1 area) region by electrophysiological experiments was used to verify the synchronization of flash evoked neural oscillations.SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis.The repeated measures ANOVA and one-way ANOVA were used to analyze normal distribution measurement data, and LSD and Tamhane tests were used for further pairwise comparison.The Kruskal-Wallis test was used for non-normal distribution measurement data.Results:(1) The flash stimulation of 40 Hz and 70 Hz both can effectively caused synchronization of neural oscillations in the primary visual cortex of healthy young rats.(2) The results of repeated measures ANOVA analysis showed that there was no interaction effect of grouping and time in the escape latency of young rats in the Morris water maze positioning navigation phase( F=1.326, P>0.05 ). The escape latency had time main effect ( F=40.025, P<0.05), but no grouping main effect ( F=2.039, P>0.05). With the increase of learning days, the escape latency of young rats in each group decreased significantly.There was no interaction effect of grouping and time in the total distance of young rats ( F=2.029, P>0.079). It had time main effect ( F=32.052, P<0.05), but not grouping main effect ( F=2.390, P>0.05) on total distance.With the increase of learning days, the total distance of young rats in each group significantly shortened.On the 6th day of the Morris water maze experiment, there was no statistically significant difference among groups in terms of time in the target quadrant and the number of crossing platforms ( F=2.511, 0.802, both P>0.05). The results of the open field experiment showed that the total distance traveled in the center of young rats in each group was statistically significant ( H=8.935, P<0.05), the total distance traveled in the center in the 70 Hz group (3.80 (2.25, 6.93) m)was significantly longer than that in the 40 Hz group (0.80 (0.72, 1.46) m), P<0.05). The percentage of time spent in the center was statistically significant in the three groups ( H=11.050, P<0.05). Young rats in the 70 Hz group spent significantly higher percentage of time in the center(3.20(2.43, 8.30)) than those in the 40 Hz group (0.95 (0.37, 1.06 ), P<0.05 ). (3) Nissl staining results showed that Nissl bodies in the hippocampal CA1 area of young rats in Ctr, 40 Hz and 70 Hz group were all arranged neatly and tightly, no edema was found in the surrounding stroma, and no obvious inflammatory cell infiltration was found. Conclusion:70 Hz frequency flash stimulation may promote the ability of learning memory and autonomous exploratory of young rats.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of vertigo and related risk factors in middle school students in the city of Xi'an. METHOD: A cross-section study was used to investigate on vertigo among middle school students. Questionnaire ,ear examination and auditory tests were carried out by the staff who received special training. Multiple Logistic regression models were used to analyze the relative influential factors about vertigo. RESULT: There were 1567 middle school students who underwent a complete investigation. The participants comprised 793 males (50.6%) and 774 females (49.4%). The overall prevalence of vertigo was 5.6%. No significant difference of the prevalence was found between males (4.7%) and females (6.5%) (P > 0.05). The use of MP3 or MP4, insomnia and history of middle ear infections or ototoxic drugs ingestion were the main risk factors for vertigo (odds ratio: 2.837, 5.582, 2.808 and 1.695, respectively). CONCLUSION Vertigo has an influence on the study and living of the students. More researches are urgently needed on prevention and treatment of vertigo.
