Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2006;10(34):171-173
BACKGROUND: The stress can induce sympathic nervous-adrenalmedulla system to release a lot of noradrenalin(NE) and adrenalin(E),pro mote bone marrow hemopoietic stem cells to differentiate towards lympho cyte and plasmocyte,decrease the number of granulocyte,thus organism canadapt to surrounding stress,so as to protect critical organs from damage. OBJECTIVE: To observe effect of confinement and vibration stress on in dexes of hematology and myelogram in Chinese tree shrews. DESIGN: Sex-marched and controlled experiment. MATERIALS: Thirty Chinese tree shrews (15 females, 15 males) weigh ing 120 g to 140 g were selected. Self-made experimental cylinders withmany vent-holes, 16 cm length and 6cm inside diameter,were used, one sideof which was sealed with plexglass,and the other side was blocked by mov able plexiglass for animals in and out.The air bath and homothermal vibra tor(Type SHZ-82,made in Changzhou,China). METHODS: The experiment was completed at the Experimental Center ofPublic Security, Gansu Political Science and Law Institute from March toOctober in 2003. ①Thirty Chinese tree shrews were randomly divided intofive groups(n=6):The animals in the control group(C group) were fed nor mally; The experimental groups consisted of reserpine + vibration and vi bration groups. The animals in the reserpine + vibration (R+V)group wereadministered reserpine (0.05 mg/kg, im.) and vibrated at 140 beats/min; the vibration groups (V1,V2,V3) were vibrated at 70, 140, 210 beats/min, respectively. ② The animals in experimental groups were individually keptin the experimental tubes for 5 minutes, then put the tubes into the air bath and homothermal vibrator for 2 minutes. ③ The bleeding time, bloodsedimentation, clotting time, and indexes of hemogram were determinedwith the methods of Duke, Westergren, glass capillary, and full-automaticbiochemical instruments (type 721, Japan), respectively. ④ Dunnett ANO- VA was used to compare the differences between groups . MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Comparison of indexes of hematologyand myelogram in Chinese tree shrews betweem the four groups.RESULTS: Thirty Chinese tree shrews were involved in the final analysis.① Indexes of hematology: compared with those of C group, the bleeding time of the V2 group significantly prolonged by 104.8% (P<0.01 ),but the clotting time and blood sedimentation decreased by 37.3% and 7.5% (P<0.01 ), respectively. Also, the counts of red blood cells, reticulocyte, blood platelet and white blood cells,as well as content of hemoglobin increased by i7.5% ,50.9%, 11.8%, 10.3% and 13.7% ,respectively.There was no significant difference between R+V group and C group(P >0.05),and also in various vibration groups. ②Indexes of myelogram:compared with those of C group,counts of granulocyte were decreased by 31.5%(P<0.01),counts of red cells,lymphocyte,mononuelear,plasmocyte,megakaryocyte,mitotic cells increased by 25.7% ,77.6%,213.3% ,65.8% ,100%,161.3%,respectively (P<0.01); those in R+V group were similar to C group (P>0.05); There were no significant differences among various vibration groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Confinement and vibration stress can increase significantly the blood cells and reduce counts of granulocyte in bone marrow,and the above changes can be interfered by reserpine.

[ABSTRACT]OBJECTIVETo explore the basic characters of the airflow-field in Chinese people's nasal cavity by computational fluid dynamics.METHODSThe three-dimensional, finite-element mesh were developed from Spiral CT imaging scans of nose of the 40 healthy Chinese people. Given the following spatial boundaries of the flow field: no-slip condition was imposed at the surface of the nasal airway walls; a standard atmosphere pressure condition was established at the inlet; a velocity vector was specified at the outlet (nasopharynx), which was obtained under the condition of aspiratory flow rate (12 L/min), the full Navier-Stokes and continuity equations were solved to obtain the airflow pattern.RESULTS1. The airflow passed mainly through left or right side of the nasal airway in the whole 40 cases (left 33, right 7),and the volume of air through the main-side is (320±28) ml while non-main-side (180±45) ml. 2. Airflow velocity: airflow of anterior nostrils, internal nostrils, the middle and inferior parts of the total meatus in the main-side were (5.01±2.12) m/s, (7.00±1.75) m/s, (5.08±1.55) m/s, (4.12±1.40) m/s respectively, and those in non-main-side were (2.01±0.94) m/s, (2.40±0.34) m/s, (1.99±1.0) m/s, (2.01±0.65) m/s respectively, which differences between the both sides were of statistical significance (allP<0.05); airflow of middle meatus, inferior meatus and olfactory cleft in the main-side were (2.08±0.43) m/s, (1.60±0.95) m/s, (1.64±0.80)m/s respectively, and those in non-main-side were (1.89±0.52) m/s, (1.49±0.89) m/s, (1.50±0.75) m/s respectively, which differences were significant statistically (allP>0.05); 3. The airflow form appeared to be linear in the middle and inferior parts of the nasal cavity. 4. Velocity in maxillary sinus cavity was almost 0 m/s.CONCLUSIONThe airflow passes mainly through the middle and inferior parts of the meatus with higher velocity in laminar form and airflow of middle meatus, inferior meatus and olfactory cleft are low and the velocity were slow. Besides, airflow in maxillary sinus cavity diffuses free mainly.
