Objective To establish a model of renal artery and vein blockage and detect the real time change of ascorbic acid in the renal cortex in vivo.Methods Sixteen rabbits were randomly divided into experiment and control groups(8 in each).Under anesthesia,the left kidney and artery-vein were dissociated and a microdialysis probe was inserted into the renal cortex.After being balanced for 60 minutes,the change of ascorbic acid in the renal cortex was detected.Ischemia was achieved by clamping the renal pedicle for 60 minutes followed by reperfusion for another 60 minutes in the experiment group.While in the control,the same procedure was performed during a same time interval without clamping the renal pedicle.Microdialysis samples were collected before,during,and after the ischemia in the rabbits,and then ascorbic acid in the microdialysates were real-time measured by an electrochemical method.Results The concentrations of ascorbic acid in the microdialysates were(18.9?7.5)?mol/L,(24.8?11.3)?mol/L,and(23.3?8.9)?mol/L respectively before,during,and after the renal warm ischemia.In the experiment group,the concentration of ascorbic acid was increased rapidly by 31.2% (24.8-18.9)/18.9] following ischemia(P0.05).Conclusions Ascorbic acid is a sensitive indicator of renal ischemia/reperfusion.The level of ischemia in renal context can be monitored in real time by detecting the concentration of ascorbic acid in vivo using microdialysis-electrochemical method.The method can be used for the further studies on ischemia/reperfusion.

Phospholipid fatty acids are the major constituents of the membranes of all living cells, and different groups of microorganism synthesize a variety of PLFA through various biochemical pathways. Several PLFAs can be used as "signatures" to analyze changes in microbial biomass and microbial communities structure. More and more PLFA method was used in soil microbial analysis. This article briefly reviewed the applications of PLFA methods in soil microbial analysis.

Objective To investigate the experience of combined laparoscopic-endoscopic procedure for colon tumor . Methods Clinical data of 32 cases of colon tumor receiving combined laparoscopic-endoscopic procedure from January 2011 to June 2014 were analyzed retrospectively , including 25 cases of endoscopic assisted laparoscopic operation ( laparoscopic resection of colon segment or laparoscopic radical resection of colon cancer with positioning of colonic lesions by endoscopy ) and 7 cases of laparoscopic assisted endoscopic operation ( intraoperative endoscopic resection under the monitor of laparoscopy ) . Results Twenty-five cases were performed endoscopic-assisted laparoscopic surgery , including endoscopic-assisted laparoscopic radical resection for colon cancer in 20 cases and endoscopic-assisted laparoscopic segmental resection of colon in 5 cases.The combined procedure contained endoscopic-assisted positioning lesions , laparoscopic bowel resection and reconstruction , and lymph node dissection .The success rate of endoscopic-assisted positioning was 100%(25/25).No conversion to laparotomy was required .No surgical complications occurred . Follow-up for 6 -48 months ( median, 30 months ) in 25 cases found no signs of recurrence and metastasis .One patient died of myocardial infarction and the remaining 24 patients survived .Seven cases were performed laparoscopic-assisted endoscopic surgery , including laparoscopic-assisted endoscopic submucosal dissection colon ( ESD) in 3 cases, laparoscopic-assisted endoscopic mucosal resection ( EMR) in 2 cases, and laparoscopic-assisted endoscopic polypectomy in 2 cases.Intestinal perforation occurred during the operation in 1 case of ESD, which was given a laparoscopic colon perforation repair .Follow-up for 9 -36 months ( median, 24 months) in 7 cases showed no deaths or signs of recurrence and metastasis . Conclusion Combined laparoscopic-endoscopic procedure has advantages of both laparoscopy and endoscopy to improve surgical safety , on the basis of good cooperation of laparoscopic and endoscopic teams .

Objective:To study the psychosocial effect of fluorosis on students with dental fluorosis.Methods:115 students with different types of fluorosis were sampled randomly from fluorosis epidemic area of Xingtai city in Hebei province, including 60 of 12-year-old and 55 of 15-year-old students. Dental fluorosis was classified by Dean's Index (DI). Parents and teachers of the selected students were involved in a psychosocial questionnaire investigation which included five five-point questions, respectively.Results:Prevalence of fluorosis was 89.6% in the young students in the area. Evaluation scores by parents, which included “health of teeth”, “satisfaction of teeth” and “perceived well-being”, decreased with the decline of DI. Statistical difference was found in the answer to the five questions by parents when comparing the evaluation scores of control(without dental fluorosis) group,moderate dental fluorosis group and severe dental fluorosis group(P0.05). Difference of the evaluation scores of parents and teachers on boys and girls was not significant.Conclusion:Fluorosis has psychosocial impact on students, especially evaluated by parents.

Objective To study the interaction of BDNF gene C270T polymorphism and estrogen receptor alpha (ERα)gene Xba Ⅰ loci and Pvu Ⅱ loci polymorphism in late-onset Alzheimer's disease(LOAD)pathogenesis in southern Chinese Han population.Methods BNDF gene C270T locus,ERα gene Xba Ⅰ site and Pvu Ⅱ site polymorphisms were examined in 203 LOAD patients and normal controls using PCR-RFLP technique.Results There was an interaction be-tween BDNF gene and ERα gene,and BDNF gene C270T locus CC genotype and the ERa gene Xba Ⅰ locus xx genotype increased the LOAD incidance risk(OR=2.38,95%CI:1.02～5.53).Conclusions BDNF gene and ERα gene are in-teracted each other in the pathogenesis of LOAD.Patients carrying both BDNF gene C270T locus CC genotype and the ERα gene Xba Ⅰ locus xx genotypes might have an increased risk for LOAD.

Rutaecarpine (Rut) is a type of indole quinazoline alkaloid exracted from Ruticarpum. Studies showed that Rut has a wide range of pharmacological effects, such as anti-hypertension, anticancer, anti-inflammation, anti-thrombus formation. Currently, many scholars are committed to developing it into a new antihypertensive and anti-inflammatory drug with all new mechanisms. But studies found that Rut is a highly fat-soluble drug with low water and oil solubility. Its high insolubility is the main obstacle in its oral absorption and application, which greatly reduced its bioavailability. Therefore, hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-CD) was used as the inclusion material to prepare Rut-HP-beta-CD inclusion complex in this experiment, in order to increase its water solubility and bioavailability. In this experiment, the inclusion complex was prepared by the stirring-freeze-dry method. The preparation process was optimized by the orthogonal test, with the inclusion rate as the index, and molar ratio between host and guest molecules, inclusion temperature, time and stirring speed as the impacting factors. Moreover, the inclusion complex was verified by detecting the apparent solubility, thin layer chromatography, microscopic identification, melting point detection and dissolution study. The results showed that under the conditions of the molar ratio between Rut and HP-beta-CD of 1: 1, temperature at 60 degrees C, inclusion time of 4h and stirring speed at 600 r x min(-1), the inclusion rate of Rut-HP-beta-CD reached 91.04%. Therefore, the preparation process of Rut-HP-beta-CD inclusion under the optimum conditions is simple and feasible, with a highest inclusion rate and reproducibility, and could significantly improve Rut's solubility and bioavailability, and provide a reliable experimental basis for its clinical application.

Objective To investigate the value of two-dimensional echocardiography (2DE) in detecting left ventricular regional wall motion abnormality (RWMA) in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) by contrast with coronary angiography (CAG).Methods Totally 68 cases of NSTEMI patients (NSTEMI group)and 50 cases of normal peoples (normal group)were collected.2DE dynamic image and CAG results were comparatively analyzed in two groups.Left ventricular RWMA of all patients were observed through multi-section dynamic images by 2 experienced echocardiographic physicians.Left ventricular wall motion abnormalities were determined according to the 16 segment method of the American Society of echocardiography (ASE).2DE-RWMA was positive if there were one or more segments of motion abnormalities.All NSTEMI patients underwent CAG 2 days after 2DE examination,CAG was positive if the degree of coronary artery stenosis was more than 50％.Results In 68 NSTEMI patients,66 cases were CAG positive and 2 cases were negative,35 cases were 2DE-RWMA positive and 33 cases were negative.Taking CAG as a gold standard,the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy,positive predictive value and negative predictive values of 2DE-RWMA in diagnosis of NSTEMI were 51.52％ (34/66),50.00 ％ (1/2),51.47％ (35/68),97.14％ (34/35),3.03 ％ (1/33).Compared with the 2DE-RWMA negative patients,the rate of three branches of coronary artery stenosis in 2DE-RWMA positive patients was higher (62.85％ vs 39.39％,P＜0.05),the degree of coronary artery stenosis that reached 90％-99％ was higher (68.57％ vs 48.48％,P＜0.05).Conclusion The sensitivity of 2DE is low of NSTEMI in detecting the left ventricle RWMA.The degree of coronary artery stenosis is probably serious if 2DE-RWMA is positive,which is helpful for preliminary clinical judgment.

BACKGROUND:Early-onset scoliosis is a kind of disease that seriously affects the growth of children’s spine and development of cardiorespiratory function. The treatment of the disease has always been the focus of many clinical researchers.OBJECTIVE:To analyze the therapy for early-onset scoliosis and explore the spinal fusion, spinal non-fusion, conventional growth rod technology and magnetic control ed growth rod technology of early-onset scoliosis. METHODS:We retrieved PubMed, CENTRAL, EMbase, the ISI Web of Knowledge Databases, VIP, CNKI, CBM and Wanfang Database for related studies published from inception of the database to March 2016. The key words were“scoliosis, growing rod, complications”. The included 54 studies were analyzed and discussed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:For these children of early-onset scoliosis, we should not only maintain the correction of spine deformities, but also protect the ability of spine growth, keeping the normal cardiopulmonary function. In addition to conventional (non-surgical) treatment, there are surgical treatment (such as spinal fusion and growing rod technique) and magnetical y control ed growing rod, a new technology for the treatment of early-onset scoliosis. A comprehensive understanding of the effect of surgical treatment on the spine growth and cardiopulmonary function of children with early-onset scoliosis wil help to prevent the occurrence of related complications, so as to obtain a better therapeutic effect.

NGOs play an important role in global health governance, and have become the key partners of World Health Organization ( WHO) , European and American governments. The goal of the sustainable development of the United Nations also proposes to strengthen NGOs as global health governance partners. Taking WHO, the Unit-ed States and Britain as case examples, this study reviewed the NGOs positioning and cooperation in their global health strategies. The results found that these entities explicitly define the roles of NGOs and strengthen cooperation in their global health strategies to expand their influence in the field of global health. Results also found that WHO, US and UK have given NGOs a clear positioning, that is, they have strengthened the mutual cooperation ( partner-ships) in the same way of expanding their influence in the field of global health for China’s global health strategy de-velopment referred to those NGOs. Therefore, China should incorporate NGOs into the global health strategy, estab-lish NGOs management and cooperation mechanism and define their roles and make it an important complement to global health. China should also strictly select international NGOs to cooperate with and strive to nurture and support Chinese NGOs to participate in global health programs set by the Government, formulate the cooperation list and neg-ative list for NGOs, and at the same time strengthen the supervision and audit to avoid possible risks of NGOs.
