Purpose To evaluate 1H proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) in detecting traumatic brain injury (TBI) and its metabolic changes during the initial two weeks after trauma using rabbit modes. Materials and Methods Fifteen Chinese rabbits were randomly divided into sham control group (n=5) and TBI group (n=10), 1H-MRS was performed 1 hour, 6 hours, 24 hours and 2 days, 7 days, 14 days after trauma, the concentration of N-acetylaspartate (NAA), creatine (Cr), choline-compound (Cho), NAA/Cr and Cho/Cr in each group was evaluated. At 6 hours, 24 hours and 168 hours after injury, 1 rabbit was slaughtered after abdominal anesthesia at each time point, the sample was ifxed with left heart catheterization perfusion after death, brain tissue was obtained, blocked, dehydrated into frozen section, HE staining was used for observation. Results Compared with the control group, NAA/Cr ratio in the trauma region decreased by 29%1 hour after trauma, with maximal reduction of 40% (at 24 hours) before increasing slightly, the NAA/Cr ratio returned to control level gradually until 168 hours later. The Cho/Cr ratio decreased by 16% 1 hour after trauma, with maximal reduction of 30%(at 6 hours) and increased gradually until finally su rpassed control level (168 hours) for 20% and then became stable. NAA/Cr ratio and Cho/Cr ratio showed statistically significant changes between each observing time point (P<0.05). Conclusion 1H-MRS can be used for dynamic detection of cerebral metabolism without injury, and is superior to MRI in detecting early abnormality of the brain, with NAA/Cr as the most sensitive parameter. Detecting the changes of NAA/Cr, Cho/Cr ratios in the trauma region can be used as a guide for assessment of the clinical treatment effectiveness of TBI.

The MPN method was used to enumerate ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) in water and sediments of several shallow lakes. The suitable incubation time, medium types and substrate (ammonium sulphate) concentrations were studied. The results showed that, MPN values increased with the incubation time, reaching a stable maximum at some time stages, which was 40 days in all the samples for MSF medium. Among the three media used (XZ-AOB、MSF、SW), MSF give the highest MPN value. In addition, am- monium sulphate concentration in medium was an important factor affecting MPN estimation of AOB. Compared to AOB in lake sediments, AOB in lake water was more sensitive to ammonium sulphate concentration.

· AIM: This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of anterior lens capsule inclusion in combined trabeculectomy and cataract surgery in preventing scar formation of the filtering bleb in rabbit model.· METHODS: Twerty-Four eyes (12 rabbits) with glaucoma model were studied, anterior lens capsule inclusion in trabeculectomy with the small-incision cataract surgery were performed on all right eyes (experimental group) and no implants were applicator in trabeculectomy with the small-incision cataract surgery on all left eyes (control group). These operated eyes were followed up from day 1 to 6 months postoperatively. Intraocular pressure (IOP) was measured and filtering blebs were observed after surgery. Other main outcome measures: cornea、conjunctiva、formation of the anterior chamber, anterior chamber depth、inflammatory reaction、achievement ratio of operation and complications were analyzed. On week 1, 2, 4, 12 and 24 after surgery the animal were killed in batch. Tissue was harvested from the bleb area and was made pathological section. HE staining、light microscope and micro photo analysis technique were applied to observe the cytological and histopathologic characteristics of the filtering tunnels.· RESULTS: There were significant differences between the two groups on IOP (1, 2, 4 weeks)、filtration bleb, achievement ratio of operation and complications. In experimental group, at the first month postoperatively, anterior lens capsule absorption started with inflammatory characteristics. The peak of inflammatory reaction occurred 1 week after operation and all the cells in the filtrating tunnel disappeared 6month after surgery. The fibroblast proliferation in control group occurred at I week and the filtrating tunnel closed with angiogenesis at 1 month after surgery. Fibroblast proliferation started 1week after surgery with no statistical difference during the time course (P >0.05). Significant statistical differences were observed by comparing the fibro blasts numbers per unit area in the filtrating tunnel in experimental group and those in control groups (P<0.05).· CONCLUSION: Anterior lens capsule was totally absorbed at 6 months postoperatively. Anterior lens capsule inclusion in trabeculectomy with cataract surgery can possibly control intraocular pressure effectively, long-term sustainability of functional filtration bleb, inhibition of the proliferation of fibroblasts and opening of the filtrating pathway in the experimental animal models were satisfied. Compared to the control group, anterior lens capsule application has less complication.
