Based on LPL model and clinical data collected, the correlation of ?/? factor with tissue volume irradiated has been derived. The data calculated by the new formula are coincidental with the results of clinical and animal experiments.

Objective To report the clinical application of Dynamic Condylar Screw(DCS) in treatment of 15 cases of distal femoral fractures. Methods All cases of the distal femoral fractures were treated with DCS, and given different fixation according to different types of the fracture,and CPM was used after operation. Results All patients were followed up for a period from 6 months to 12 months.The excellent and good rate of functional recovery was 86.7%. Conclusions DCS is a good method to treat distal femoral fractures.

Objective: To explore the eff ect of Fasudil on the invasion and metastatic abilities of human high metastatic liver cancer cells (HCCLM3) and the underlying mechanisms. Methods: HCCLM3 cells were incubated with 100 μmol/L Fasudil. Fluorescence staining forF-actin and Transwell assay were performed to observe the invasion ability of HCCLM3 cells. HCCLM3 cells were divided into 3 groups: a negative control group, a Fasudil group and a BTB/POZ domain containing 7 (BTBD7)-siRNA group. Western blot assay was performed to detect the expression levels of BTBD7, ras homolog family member C (RhoC) and Rho-associated, coiled-coil containing protein kinase 2 (ROCK2), matrix metalloproteinases 2 (MMP2) and MMP9. Zymogram analysis method was performed to detect the expression activities of MMP2 and MMP9. hTe BTBD7-siRNA group was served as a positive control. Results: In HCCLM3 cells treated with Fasudil, the invasion ability was significant decreased compared with the control group, concomitant with the down-regulated expression levels of BTBD7, RhoC and ROCK2 protein as well as the decreased activities of MMP2 and MMP9. Conclusion: Fasudil plays an important role in interfering BTBD7-ROCK2 signaling pathway and suppressing the invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the distribution of vancomycin-resistant genes and virulence genes in vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) isolates from intensive care unit (ICU).Methods A total of 180 anal swabs were collected from patients in ICU in Tianjin Medical University General Hospital during September 2012 and May 2013.VRE strains were screened by ChromID agar method.Vitek 2 Compact system was used in drug sensitivity test,and the sensitivities to vancomycin and teicoplanin were further determined using Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method.Vancomycin resistant genes vanA,vanB,vanC1 and virulence genes esp,hyl were detected by polymerase chain reaction(PCR).Results Nineteen strains of vancomycin resistant Enterococcusfaecium were isolated from 180 anal swabs.All 19 VRE isolates were resistant to both vancomycin and teicoplanin,while they were susceptible to linezolid and tigecycline.All VRE isolates carried vanA and esp genes,and hyl gene was positive in 10 isolates.Conclusions VRE isolates from ICU are highly resistant to commonly used antibacterial agents,and most isolates carry vancomycin-resistant genes and virulence genes.Linezolid and tigecycline may be recommended for VRE infection in ICU.

Objective To discuss the short-term results of tricuspid valve annuloplasty with prosthetic ring.Methods Tricuspid valve annuloplasty with prosthetic ring was performed in 34 patients with organic or functionaltricuspid valve insufficiency. At the same time atrial septal defect and ventrieular septal defect were closed valve re-placement was done. Results There was no in-hospital death. Echocardiography was done about one week after oper-ations,which showed that fight ventricle or pulmonary artery were smaller than that before operation in all patients andresidual tricuspid valve insufficiency was found mild in 11 cases, moderate in 2 cases. Conclusion Tricuspid valveannuloplnsy should be performed in patients with organic or functional tricuspid valve insufficiency. Better short-termresults may be got when prosthetic ring was used to small tricuspid annulus.

Objective: To observe the effect of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) on proliferation, cell cycle and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Methods: HUVECs were culturedin vitro at the concentration of (1×105/ml) and the cells were divided into 2 sets of groups:CSWT group, the cells were treated by different energy of (0.03, 0.09, 0.18, 0.24) mJ/mm2 respectively and corresponding Control group, in which the cells had no CSWT. HUVEC proliferation was detected by CCK colorimetric method, cell cycle was measured by lfow cytometry, mRNA and protein expressions of ICAM-1 were examined by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis respectively. Results: Compared with Control group, (0.09 mJ/mm2) CSWT group had promoted HUVECs proliferation,P<0.05 and the other CSWT groups were similar to corresponding Control groups,P>0.05; (0.09 mJ/mm2) CSWT group showed decreased proportion of G0/G1 stage and increased S and G2/M stages, allP<0.05; while (0.03 mJ/mm2) CSWT group only increased the proportion of G2/M stage,P<0.05 and the other CSWT groups were similar to corresponding Control group,P>0.05. Compared with Control group, (0.09 mJ/mm2 ) and (0.03mJ/mm2) CSWT groups showed increased mRNA expression of ICAM-1 (9.27±0.95) vs (1.02±0.27),P<0.001 and (7.08±0.60) vs (1.02±0.27),P<0.01; (0.09 mJ /mm2) CSWT group had elevated protein expression of ICAM-1,P<0.05. Conclusion: ESWT especially at (0.09 mJ/mm2) may accelerate cell cycle transition from G0/G1 stage to S and G2/M stages, promote HUVECs proliferation and increase ICAM-1 expression which may play important roles in ESWT facilitated angiogenesis in vitro.

Object To establish a calli culture system for the rapid propagation of Speiraea japonica L. f.. Methods Callus and shoot induction were carried out on MS, 6, 7 V or B 5 media with different parts of the plant such as stem tip, tender leaves and petiole as explants. Results A calli culture system was established for the rapid propagation of S. japonica. Conclusion MS cultural medium was found to be most suitable for calli induction. MS with 2.0 mg/L 2,4 D+0.3 mg/L KT can induce calli when the explants were used for the induction, with stem tips being the most satisfactory explant. Clusters of seedlings can be induced on MS+2 mg/L BA+0.1 mg/L NAA and when these seedlings were transferred to 1/2 MS +0.25 mg/L BA+0.5 mg/L NAA medium, root were developed to give young seedlings.

AIM To observe the effects of ZMS and ZMR(isomer of ZMS),two active components of Zhimu on learning and memory ability and muscarinic subtype M 1 receptor density in aged rats. METHODS 24 month-old SD rats were randomly divided into aged control group, ZMS and ZMR treatment group. Young rats were used as normal control group. The learning and memory ability was detected by Y-maze method. The muscarinic subtype M 1 receptor density in the brain was detected by 3H-QNB binding tests. RESULTS It was found that daily oral administration of ZMS and ZMR for 40 d significantly enhanced the learning and memory ability and the muscarinic subtype M 1 receptor density in the brain of the aged rats. CONCLUSION These results suggested that ZMS and ZMR probably have potential preventive and curative action for the progressive deterioration of the cholinergic system in Alzheimers disease (AD).

0.05)]. Conclusion The elevated serum HA is linked to a potential marker in kidney transplantation.
