Objective To establish bladder reflex arc with sensory afferent pathway using SD rats,and evaluate its effect in the treatment of atonic bladder after spinal cord injury.Methods Twenty-four male SD rats were used in the study.For each rat,the right side was the experimental side,and the left side was the control side.In the right side,the L5 ventral root (VR) was anastomosed to S2 VR,and the distal end of S2 dorsal root (DR) was anastomosed to the proximal end of L5 peripheral process of dorsal ganglion.In the left side,no treatment was done.In order to evaluate the validity of the bladder reflex arc,general observation,neuro-electrophysiological test and wheat germ agglutinin horseradish peroxidase (WGA-HRP) method were used before and after the spinal cord destruction between L6 and S2 level at 3 months postoperatively.Results Twenty-one rats survived 3 months after the operation,and anastomotic nerves were separated successfully only in seven rats.Compound action potentials (CAPs) of plexus vesica and compound muscle action potentials (CMAPs) of bladder smooth muscle were found by electrical stimulation in distal end of the anastomotic stoma of the right S2 DR.There was no statistically significant difference in action potential before and after paraplegia.No action potential was detected in control sides after paraplegia.The curves of CAPs and CMAPs in the right side were similar to those in the control side,and the mean maximum amplitude reached respectively 71.9% and 82.4% of those in the left side before paraplegia.In addition,WGAHRP labeled cells were observed in L5 anterior horn and posterior horn in the experimental side after WGAHRP injection.Conclusion Reconstruction of bladder reflex arc with sensory afferent pathway can promote axonal regeneration of motor and sensory nerves,and then the regenerated axon could contact with cells in anterior and posterior horn of spinal cord through parasympathetic nerves,ultimately the capability of axoplasmic transportation could be reestablished.Therefore,this method can be used for treating atonic bladder.

Objective To analyze the schistosomiasis epidemic of 4 national pilots in Dongting Lake regions during 5 years period, and provide references for control strategy and policy making. Methods Four longitudinal monitoring pilots were set up in Dongting Lake regions from 2000 to 2004, and the field work in pilots was carried out based on “National Scheme on Schistosomiasis Epidemic Monitoring”. Results During the monitoring period, the infection rate of Schistosoma japonicum kept at 4% in Dongjia, 5% in Xinshang and over 12% in Quanxing, but in Changjiang, the rate was 8.92% in the first year of monitoring period, and stayed at 4% in the next 4 years. For all pilots, 20-49 age group had the highest infection rate, with the rate in male being higher than that in female and centering on the fishermen, farmers and students in occupation. There was the occurrence of acute and new advanced cases. The infection rate in domestic animals was fluctuated at 20%. There was extensive distribution of infected snails on marshlands outside embankments. Conclusion Schistosomiasis is seriously endemic in Dongting Lake regions, and intensive control measures are necessary.

Objective To analyse the effects of Word Bank Loan Schistosomiasis Control Project in Hunan Province from 1992 to 2000. Methods The administrative villages in Hunan endemic areas were divided into heavy, moderate and low zones respectively, based on human infection rates. Control strategies including a major approach of chemotherapy to inhabitants and bovines with praziquantel, complemented with health education as well as snail control by environment modification, were adopted in each endemic zone. Schistosomiasis prevalence surveillance was carried out in 50 moving pilots selected from endemic villages in each zone every year. Results At the beginning of the programm, there were total of 35 endemic counties (cities, districts, farms) and 471 endemic towns in Hunan Province. Up to 2000, 8 endemic counties (farms) reach the transmission interruption criteria, and 25 counties and 300 towns reach the transmission control criteria. Heavy endemic villages decreased from 762 to 271, while moderate endemic villages from 1728 to 1053, and low endemic villages increased from 1447 to 2716. Human infection rates dropped from 11.59% to 5.64%. Conclusion The schistosomiasis epidemic situation decreased obviously after implementing the project in Hunan Province.

Meningoencephalitis caused by the human herpes virus 6 is common in acquired immune deficiency syndrome patients or in patients after organ transplantation, rarely in immunocompetent adults. The clinical manifestations include headache, drowsinesss, coma, epileptic attack, psychiatric symptom and focal neurological signs. Antiviral therapy is effective, however the prognosis should be poor if the treatment is not timely. The clinical data of one case of meningoencephalitis caused by the human herpes virus 6 in Tianjin Haihe Hospital in October 2019 were analyzed. Meningoencephalitis caused by the human herpes virus 6 can be recurrent. The clinical manifestations are nonspecific and the diagnosis is difficult. The next generation sequencing of cerebrospinal fluid is a powerful method to identify pathogens.

Objectives:To compare the susceptibility of serum lipoproteins to oxidation and the effects of high-density lipoprotein on oxidative stress in patients with lipid turbulence. Methods:VLDL, LDL and HDL were isolated using sequential ultracentrifugation from serum of patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) (n=45), myocardial infarction survivor (MIS) (n=33) , cerebral infarction(CI)(n=33) ,type 2 diabetes mellitus(DM)(n=53) and normal individuals (n=44). The degree of lipid peroxidation was estimated using the thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) value and the susceptibilities of lipoproteins to oxidation were assessed by measuring the increased absorbance value at 234 nm due to the conjugated dinene formation. Lipid levels and lipoprotein fractions were measured using standard methods. Results: VLDL obtained from the patient groups showed significant increase in TBARS values, especially from the patients with MIS (compared with control group, P<0.001). In addition, LDL from MIS and DM groups and HDL from CI and DM groups also showed markedly increase in TBARS content. Significant decrease in lag time was observed in both VLDL and LDL fractions from the four patient groups. However, no change was found in the lag time in HDL fraction from the patient group compared with control group. In addition, HDL from the four patients exhibited significantly decreased inhibitory effects on in vitro oxidation of LDL, with the most significant decrease in HDL from CRF and MIS groups. Conclusions:The oxidative modification of lipoproteins in vivo in patients with serum lipid turbulence might be involved in the development of atherosclerosis in these patients.

OBJECTIVE:To provide data and reference for pharmacist legislation. METHODS:Questionnaire survey was de-signed investigate and analyze the staffing situation,education level,professional composition,age composition,professional titles composition,continuing education and wage of pharmacists who worked in medical and health institutions from 16 states (cities) in Yunnan province,and suggestions were put forward for relevant legislation. RESULTS:Totally 10 questionnaires were received from provincial medical and health institutions,and 16 from state (city) Health and Family Planning Commission,with effective recovery of 100%;data covered 1 561 medical and health institutions,involving 7 409 pharmacists. The numbers of pharmacy per-sonnel/hospital beds in tertiary hospitals,secondary hospitals and class-1 hospitals were 1∶15.49,1∶17.50,1∶20.68,numbers of pharmacy personnel/health professional and technical personnel in hospital accounted for 5.62%,6.18%,5.30%,respectively;most pharmacists in tertiary hospitals were mainly undergraduate degree(35.21%),doctor degree accounted for 0.15%,the high-est ratio of education was junior college degree in secondary hospitals(41.60%)and class-1 hospitals(57.51%);most pharmacists graduated in pharmacy in tertiary hospitals(94.14%),70.22% in secondary hospitals and only 10.50% in class-1 hospitals;phar-macy personnel mainly held the pharmacist professional titles in tertiary,secondary and class-1 hospitals (33.83%,37.89% and 63.55%),senior professional titles accounted for 5.88%,2.71% and 0.21%,respectively;only a few have learning experience and almost less than 6 months (9.17%,5.84% and 21.32%),and 80 pharmacists were certificated as clinical pharmacists in the whole province;generally,all wage was concentrated in 2 000-2 999 per month (27.72%,41.80% and 55.90%,respectively). CONCLUSIONS:Shortage of hospital pharmacists and lack of senior personnel are the main problems in Yunnan province,and wage is not high,especially in primary hospital,this situation is more obvious. The current situation of pharmacists in the hospital should be more taken into consideration during the legislative process in aspects of clearing and guaranteeing access qualifications, responsibilities,status,rights and interests,and pharmaceutical technology and service charges should be established.
