Objective To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture on acupoint local extracellular ionized atom concentrations under physiological status and provide a basis for exploring the mechanism of action of electroacupuncture. Method Twenty male SD rats were selected. Rat point Zusanli (ST36) was given electroacupuncture (1 mA, 0.2 ms and 2 Hz) for 60 min. Meanwhile, local tissue fluid was collected at point Zusanli and non-acupoints using a microdialyzer. The collection by molecular probe membrane sampling lasted 4 hrs: 60 min physiological status before electroacupuncture, 60 min electroacupuncture, 60 min after electroacupuncture and 120 min after electroacupuncture. Real-time analysis of the sample was made by electrolyte analysis to observe local changes in concentrations of Ca﹢﹢, K﹢, Na﹢and Cl- at point Zusanli. Result Local Ca﹢﹢concentrations at point Zusanli increased significantly during electroacupuncture (P=0.003, vs before electroacupuncture), rose gradually afterwards and reached the peak at 60 min after electroacupuncture (P=0.75, vs during electroacupuncture). Ca﹢﹢concentrations decreased at 120 min after electroacupuncture; there was a statistically significant difference comparedwith during electroacupuncture (P=0.04). Acupoint local extracellular concentrations of Na ﹢ and Cl- also increased significantly during electroacupuncture (P<0.001, P=0.007, vs before electroacupuncture) but decreased gradually during 60 min after electroacupuncture and to (71.81±15.09) mmol/L and (57.42±14.30) mmol/L, respectively, at 60 min after electroacupuncture (P=0.09, P=0.07 vs during electroacupuncture). Acupoint extracellular K ﹢concentrations had a tendency similar to those of Na﹢and Cl- but there was no statistically significant difference. Non-point electroacupuncture slightly increased extracellular concentrations of Ca﹢﹢, K﹢, Na﹢and Cl- but there were no statistically significant differences compared with before electroacupuncture (P>0.05). Conclusion Rat point Zusanli electroacupuncture can induce significant increases in acupoint local extracellular concentrations of Ca﹢﹢, K﹢, Na﹢and Cl- . Ionized atom concentrations decrease in different degrees after electroacupuncture. These provide an experimental basis for studying the physiological mechanism of electroacupuncture treatment.

Objective To study the clinical efficacy of autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation for the treatment myocardial infarction,in the same period of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).Methods From January 2012 to January 2015,76 patients with myocardial infarction were selected.Patients were divided into transplantation group (n =46) and control group (n =30) on the basis of whether being treated by autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.After myocardial infarction patients were taken to the hospital with the therapy of conventional drug,5 days before CABG,transplantation group was given the autologous peripheral blood stem cell mobilization and expansion,24 hours before CABG,taking autologous peripheral blood stem cell collection.76 patients took CABG with non-cardiopulmonary by pass,transplantation group was given autologous peripheral blood stem cell via transplantation vessels and subepicardial,while the control group was not given the injection of autologous peripheral blood stem cell.The LV morphology,wall motion score index (WMSI) and index of cardiac function before and after the operation in both groups were evaluated by echocardiography.Results Six months after CABG,there was a significant decrease in Left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and wall motion score index,Left ventricular ejection fraction was increased.The indexes of cardiac function in the transplantation group were better than the control group.Conclusion Autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation for the treatment myocardial infarction can improve the heart function,and has obvious recent clinical curative effect in the same period of CABG.

Objective:The results of the two interferon-gamma release assay tests were compared, so as to provide reference for the laboratory to choose the detection method.Methods:Double blood samples of 96 suspected TB patients hospitalized in Civil Aviation General Hospital from July 2018 to December 2019 were collected, providing for TB specific antigen stimulation test by QIAGEN kit and Autobio kit respectively. ELISA and chemiluminescence were used to detect interferon-gamma, and the results were determined according to the manufacturer′s instructions. Based on the clinical or bacteriological evidence for diagnosis of tuberculosis, the consistency of the two kits was compared, and the diagnostic efficacy of tuberculosis was evaluated. At the same time, 60 samples of plasma stimulated by TB specific antigen in QIAGEN kit were randomly selected to detect interferon-gamma by ELISA and chemiluminescence respectively, and the consistency between the two interferon-gamma detection systems was compared. The Kappa coefficient were used to measure the consistency of the results. The ordinary linear regression and Bland-Altman plots were performed to show the differences of IFN-γ data between assays.Result:In 96 samples, the sensitivity and specificity of QIAGEN test were 81.82% (18/22) and 74.32% (55/74), and that of Autobio test were 72.73% (16/22) and 70.27% (52/74), respectively. The results of the two systems were consistent, Kappa value was 0.847, P<0.05. The area under ROC curve of QIAGEN test for diagnosis of tuberculosis was 0.807 (95% confidence interval: 0.702-0.911), while that of Autobio test was 0.765 (95% confidence interval: 0.640-0.889). Comparing the results of two systems for detecting interferon-gamma in the same plasma, the results of two systems were in good agreement ( R2=0.97, P<0.05); but there were significant differences in the levels of interferon-gamma in the same patient sample after stimulation with different negative and positive tubes ( R2=0.41, P<0.05). Conclusion:The results of γ-interferon release assay test of Autobio system and QIAGEN system are in good agreement, and the results of γ-interferon release assay test of the two systems are also in good agreement. Different amount of antigen coating, titer and test system may be responsible for the different release of interferon-gamma.

Objective To establish a simple and convenient method and study the feasibility of using gold nanoparticle composites (ssDNA-AuNPs) for colorimetric detection of gamma radiation.Methods The composites ssDNA-AuNPs were prepared by applying the ssDNA to the surface of AuNPs,and then were irradiated with gamma ray with absorbed doses of 0,5,10,20,and 30 Gy,respectively.Subsequently the color change in the solutions were observed simultaneously with absorption spectra being measured.The linear relationship between the ratio of A625/A521 in the absorption spectrum and the absorbed dose was established.Results With the increase of radiation dose,the color of the solutions changed from wine-red to blue-violet gradually,the ratio of A625/A521 in absorption spectra had excellent liner response for absorbed dose ranging from 0 to 30 Gy,and the linear equation was A625/A521 =0.020 6 + 0.303 6 E(R2 =0.991 5).Conclusions The ssDNA-AuNPs synthesized in this experiment can be successfully used for colorimetric detection of gamma absorbed dose,and a simple and convenient method for detection of gamma radiation has been newly established.
