Objective To explore the protective effect of portal vein administration of propofol on hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury(HIRI) and its mechanism.Methods Thirty-two male rabbits were randomly allocated into four groups:Group A(sham operation group),the abdomen was only opened and closed;group B,the hepatic inflow was occluded for 30 min,and reperfused for 60 min;group C,the same managment as group B + propofol injected through jugular vein;group D,the treatment same as group B + propofol injected through portal vein.Drug injection was completed 20 min before hepatic inflow occlusion.Serum ALT and AST,and endothelin-1(ET-1) and nitric oxide(NO)in the hepatic tissue and blood,and the content of ATP in hepatic tissue were determined.Results The level of ET-1 in plasma and hepatic tissue was significantly increased in group B compared to group C and D(P

Objective To investigate the application of respiratory navigator echo triggered black blood contrast FSE in cardiac MRI. Methods The respiratory navigator echo trigger technique combining with black blood FSE (NAV-FSE) was tested on 11 volunteers and 5 patients in free breathing,using breath-hold FSE (BH-FSE) with the same imaging protocals as control. The imaging efficiency and the image sharpness were compared between NAV-FSE and BH-FSE and t-test was used for the statistics. Results All NAV-FSE acquisitions were completed in sixteen subjects while 4 BH-FSE acquisitions failed because of poor breath holding. The efficiencies of NAV-FSE were (42. 95±11.50)%, (56. 14±11.40)% and (55.25± 14. 70)% when echo train length (ETL) were 24, 16 and 8, respectively. When ETL were 16 and 24, the sharpness of NAV-FSE ( 0. 43±0. 02 vs 0. 36±0. 02 ) and BH-FSE ( 0. 36±0. 03 vs 0. 35±0. 02 ) were statistically different (t =4. 26, 5. 53 ,respectively; P <0. 05). NAV-FSE could have a shorter ETL setting without consideration of breath holding. Conclusion The navigator echo trigger technique could be compatible with black blood contrast FSE to image the heart without the restriction of breath holding and it allows to optimize the parameters to improve the image quality.

Objective To explore the dysfunction of dendritic cells (DC) related to TGFβ reversed after blocking the TGFβ signal pathway by recombinant adenovirus vector encoding for Smad7.Methods Smad7 by recombinant adenovirus vector was transfected into dendritic cells.Expression of immunologic phenotypes was detected by FCM,and CTL activity induced by DC was compared.Results The DC modified with Smad7 still expressed high adhesiveness factor related to maturation even if existing exogenous TGFβ1,which was significant statistically compared with DC transfected with control adenoviral vector (P ＜0.01).Even if existing exogenous TGFβ1,the DC modified with Smad7 pulsed with soluble antigen associated with Lewis pulmonary carcinoma could still induce potent CTL activity against Lewis pulmonary carcinoma,which showed significant difference with DC-Ad-c (P ＜0.01).Conclusion The inhibitory effects on function of DC of TGFβ may be reversed by blocking the Smad signal of TGFβ pathway.

Objective To investigate the rs501120 and rs17465637 gene polymorphisms,and their relationship with the risk of coronary heart disease(CHD)in Chinese Han population.Methods 775 CHD without treatment and 775 age and gender matched controls were selected for this study,the genotypes of two single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNP)rs501120 and rs17465637 were tested with TaqMan-MGB probes.Results There was no significant difference in the frequency of genotypes of the 2 SNPs between CHD group and control group(P ＞0.05).Stratified analysis showed that SNP rs501120 had significant protection with CHD in people younger than 60 years old(OR 0.4,95% CI 0.2-0.9,P ＜ 0.05)or people with diabetes(OR0.3,95%CI0.1-0.7,P ＜0.05).Conclusions The results suggested that rs501120 was tightly associated with CHD in people younger than 60 years or had diabetes.

Objective To study an improved automated method for isolation and purification of large amounts of human pancreatic islets from large mammals,and try to create conditions for preparation and isolation of large amounts of human islets.Methods An improved automated system was used to isolate and purify panreatic islets of sogs.Under the general anaesthesia(GA) condition,the pancreas of the dogs was via in situ vascular perfused using cold HC-A solution and then removed en bloc with duodenum and spleen.Then they were placed in cold UW aolutian.Intraductal collagenase-Ⅴ and pefabloc(4 ℃) was delivered with controlled perfusion.lslets were dissociated in system of Ricordi Chamber and purified islets separated with Ficoll density gradient centrifugation under controlled temperature.Digestion time,islets remaining trapped in exocrine tissue,final islet purity,insulin and C-pep secretory activity,and islet recovery were observed.The purified islets were observed under light microscope and electronic microscope after 24 h culture.Results The digestion time rate was(25.0?6.0) min,islets remaining trapped in exocrine tissue was(9.4?2.4)%,final islet purify rate was(89.7?3.5)%,islet recovery after digestion was(17.2?3.6)?104 IEQ/pancreas.Islet recovery after purification was(8.3?2.0)?104IEQ/pancreas.Insulin and C-pep secretory activity of the purified islets and their ultrastructure after 24 h culture were ideal.Conclusions Our improved automated method and facilities for isolation of canine pancreatic islets are reliable,The morphology and function of the procured islets are excellent and they can foreseeably be used for large-scale preparation of huma islets for clinical use.

As the importance of clinical risks management grows hospital management,reducing hospital medical errors for patients safety has become a key quality management process.Failure Mode and effect analysis( FMEA) is a proactive technique for error detection and reduction.In this paper,based on a brief review of it's history of development,described in detail the implementation method and steps of FMEA,mainly introducing the research progress for using FMEA in reducing hospital medical errors.

Objective To explore the relationship of phosphatase and tensin homology deleted on chromosome ten ( PTEN ) expression with the positioning of AMPA recepter subunit GluR2 in hippocampal neuron after stretch injury. Methods The primary rat hippocampal neuron from neonate rats were cultured and the model of stretch injury established. Western blot and TUNEL staining were used to detect PTEN expression and the positioning of AMPA receptor subunit GluR2 in rat hippocampal neuron at different time intervals after stretch injury. Results The PTEN expression was increased obviously after stretch injury, while the expressions of AMPA receptors GluR1, GluR2 and GluR3 showed no evident differences at every time point. However, AMPA receptor subunit GluR2 located at cytomembrane was down-regulated obviously after stretch injury. Conclusion The intracellular PTEN expression and the expression of AMPA receptor subunit GluR2 located at cytomembrane are on the contrary, indicating that PTEN phosphatase may participate in the transport and reintegration process of AMPA receptor subunit GluR2 located at cytomembrane.

Objective To study the arthroscopy-assisted minimally invasive treatment of chondromalacia patella. Methods The clinical data of 140 patients with chondromalacia patella, with a mean age of 51.9 ± 5.71 years ( range, 41 to 62 years), undergoing surgical or Non-surgical treatment in our hospital from June 2005 to December 2008 were analyzed. In non-surgical group, 72 cases (96 knees) underwent intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate and other non-surgical treatment. In surgical group, 68 cases (84 knees) underwent variorus Arthroscopy-Assisted minimally invasive surgery, according to the extent of the patella cartilage injury and the situation of the patellofemoral joint. Joint functional exercise were carried out after operations. Regular follow-up were done after leaving hospital. Lysholm scoring system was used to evaluate the clinical effects. Judet's evaluation criteria was used to evaluate the improvement of range of motion. Results In non-surgical group, the knee function have been improved 24. 82%. In surgical group the knee function have been improved 35.37%. At the postoperative and final follow-up, the effect in surgery group was significantly better than non-surgical group. Conclusion For the chondromalacia patella with Ⅱ, Ⅲ class cartilage injury, minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery is a good treatment method, which can reduce pain, improve function, slow down the progress of the disease, and improve the quality of life of patients.
