To investigate the influence of six exogenous pathogenic factors on asthma in children and to observe the changes of microscopic indexes in cold- and heat-type asthma. Logistic regression analysis was applied to analyze the influence of six exogenous pathogenic factors and the changes of serum level of IgE, eosinophil (EOS) counting, contents of third component of complement (C3) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were observed. The exogenous factors of wind, cold, damp, wind-cold mixture and cold-damp mixture were the risky factors of asthma. Serum levels of IgE and EOS were higher in cold-type asthma and serum contents of C3 and CRP were higher in heat-type asthma (P

Objective To study the effect of 8Hz infrasound on the expression of 5-HTR of hippocampus and temporal cortex in rats. Methods SD rats were exposed to 8Hz, 90dB,100dB or 130dB infrasound, respectively for 2 hours daily. Then the rats' brains were taken and given stained immunohistochemically for (5-hydroxy tryptamine receptor,5-HTR). The content of 5-HTR in hippocampus and temporal cortex were detected under an optical microscope. Results The animals in the infrasound groups had less expression of 5-HTR in hippocampus and temporal cortex, and the least were at the 35th day for 90dB group and 100dB group and the 28th day for 130dB group (P

Objective To investigate the effects of 8Hz infrasound on spatial learning ability of rats and its the underlying mechanism. Methods Forty male SD rats were randomly divided into a control group and an experiment group (consisting of the 8Hz, 90dB, 100dB and 130dB subgroups). The experimental subgroups were exposed to 8Hz, 90dB, 100dB or 130dB infrasound for 2 hours daily, respectively, for a total of 6 days. All of the rats were taken out of the infrasonic depot once a day and given Morris maze training. And at last the brain of the rats were harvested and treated with immunohistochemical staining for detection of ryanodine receptor (RyR). The content of RyR in hippocampi and temporal cortex were detected under an optical microscope. Results The rats in the 8Hz, 90dB, 100dB and 130dB subgroups showed prolonged latency in Morris training ( P =0.010, P =0.001 and P = 0.000 ). The hippocampi and temporal cortex of rats in 8Hz, 90dB, 100dB and 130dB subgroups showed less positive neurons of RyR ( P =0.000). There was a negative correlation between the latency period of rats finding the hidden platform and the content of RyR in hippocampus and temporal cortex. Conclusion Infrasound of 8Hz, 90dB, 100dB and 130dB could decrease the spatial learning ability of rats, and this was possibly related to the reduce of RyR in hippocampus and temporal cortex.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of self-made dressing negative pressure drainage technique in the treatment of the four limbs soft tissue trauma.Methods A total of 60 patients with the four limbs soft tissue trauma in our hospital from December 2013 to December 2014 were randomly divided into the observation group and control group.The observation group with 30 cases were treated with the self-made negative pressure drainage technique,and the control group with 30 cases received the conventional treatment.The pain score,wound healing rate,complication rate between two groups were compared.Results The pain score of the observation group was(1.17±0.22),which was lower than(3.17±0.49) of control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The wound healing rate of observation group(73.33%) was higher than that of the control group(40%),the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The complication rate of observation group(3.33%) was lower than that of control group(23.33%),the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The self-made dressing negative pressure drainage technique applied to the patients of four limbs soft tissue trauma can reduce the pain,shorten the healing time,and reduce the incidence of complications.

Objective To study the preventive effect of paeonol on restenosis after angioplasty in rabbit balloon injury model and its mechanism.Methods Male New Zealand white rabbits with clean grade were selected.Balloon injury rabbit abdominal aorta combined with high cholesterol diet were used to establish rabbit atherosclerosis model.We used balloon to dilate the narrow abdominal aorta.The animals were randomly divided into four groups (control group,low concentration paeonol group,high concentration paeonol group and rapamycin group).Animals in different group were orally given normal saline 2 ml · kg-1 · d-1,low concentration of paeonol 75 mg · kg-1 · d-1,high concentration of paeonol 150 mg · kg-1 · d-1,rapamycin administrated with 1.25 mg · kg-1 · d-1 for six weeks respectively.After 6 weeks,the animals were killed by air embolism,and immediately dissected to remove the abdominal aorta.We used hematoxylin and eosin(HE) staining and Masson staining to detect the thickness of the arterial intimal hyperplasia and the gross morphological changes of the narrow artery.Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect changes of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expression level.Western blotting was used to discover P27kip1 protein expression in the narrow artery.Results Paeonol and rapamycin reduced the degree of intimal hyperplasia.The neointima areas in the control group,low concentration paeonol group,high concentration paeonol group and rapamycin group were (0.16±0.03),(0.09±0.01),(0.05±0.01) and (0.04±0.01) respectively; the ratio of neointimal area to media area was (90.62 ±3.43),(42.30 ±2.94) (33.72±3.19) and (28.78±6.67) respectively; the intimal area proliferation rate was (33.3 ± 3.1) ％,(23.2 ± 2.2) ％,(17.5 ± 1.5) ％ and (16.2 ± 1.7) ％ respectively.There were significant differences in the neointima area,ratio of neointimal area to media area,and the intimal area proliferation rate among the four groups (F=47.98,257.25,74.60,all P＜0.05).The expression level of PCNA and P27kip1 protein were (0.20±0.04),(0.06±0.02),(0.05±0.02) and (0.08± 0.02),and (0.47±0.09),(0.78±0.20),(1.29±0.12) and (1.83±0.13) in the control group,low concentration paeonol group,high concentration paeonol group and rapamycin group respectively,and the differences were statistically significant between the four groups (F=37.22 and 107.69,both P＜0.01).Conclusions Paeonol plays a role in anti-vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation.This effect may be through inhibiting the expression of PCNA,and increasing the expression of P27kip1 in the cell cycle.

ObjectiveTo investigate effects of 8Hz 90dB and 8Hz 130dB infrasound on hippocampi ultrastructure of SD rats.Methods60 male SD rats were randomly divided into the control group and experimental group. Rats of experimental group were exposed to 8Hz 90dB or 8Hz 130dB infrasound 2 hours every day for 1,7,14, 21,28,35 and 42 days. As soon as the exposure finished,the right hippocampus of rat was taken and examined by electron microscopy.ResultsHippocampus ultrastructure of rats was changed after only one day exposure to infrasound and the longer exposure to infrasound, the worse ultrastructure changed. But during the latter period,damages of hippocampus ultrastructure became lighter. Different rules were observed between 90dB and 130dB groups.ConclusionInfrasound of 8Hz 90dB and 8Hz 130dB can make hippocampus ultrastructure of rats damaged mainly as denaturalizations. These changes are nonliner with time, and the hippocampus of rats has adaptability to infrasound.

ObjectivesTo explore the clinical significance of tyrosine kinase receptor RON mRNA expression and it's splicing variant in bladder tumors. Methods Sixty-three cases of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder (TCCB), including 30 cases of pathological grade I , 15 cases of pathological grade Ⅱ and 18 cases of pathological grade Ⅲ (44 cases of clinical stage Tis + T1, 15 cases of T2 + T3 +T4), 7 inverted papilloma of the bladder ( IPB), 9 cases of papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (PUNLMP) and 12 cases of normalbladder mucosa RT-PCR was employed with the internal standard (GAPDHmRNA) to detect the expression of RON mRNA. PCR and direct sequencing was then utilized to identify the potential RON mRNA splicing variants. Finally, the variants' positive rates of expression were analyzed among the different tissues, diverse TCCB pathological grades and clinical stages. ResultsThe expression levels of RON mRNA/GAPDH mRNA among TCCB, IPB, PUNLMP and normal control were 4. 9 × 10-3 ( 1. 8 × 10-3-1.0 × 10-2 ), 3. 8 × 10-3 (2. 4 × 10-3-1.7 × 10-2 ), 4. 9 ×10 -3 ( 1.7 × 10 -3-1.1 × 10 -2 ) and 1.0 × 10-3 (4. 5 × 10-4-2. 8 × 10-3 ) respectively. The difference had a statistical significance (x2K-W = 17. 278 ,P ＜0. 05 ). The expression levels among pathological grade I, Ⅱ andⅢ were 3.7 × 10-3( 1.3 × 10-3-7.5 × 10-3) , 4. 9 × 10-3(1.9 × 10-3-1.1 × 10-2) and 8.9 × 10-3(2. 7 ×10 -3-8.0 × 10 -2 ) respectively. The erpression levels among the clinical stage Tis + T1 and T2 + T3 + T4were 3.5 × 10-3 ( 1.2 × 10 -3-7. 7 × 10-3 ) and 9. 7 × 10 -3 ( 2. 9 × 10-3-5. 3 × 10-2 ). The differences between expression levels were of statistical significance among the different pathological grades ( x2k-W =7. 341, P ＜0. 05 ) and clinical stages ( Z = - 2. 306, P ＜ 0. 05 ). The positive rates of exon 11deletion(E11△) in TCCB, IPB and PUNLMP were 71％ (45/63), 57％ (4/7) and 67％ (6/9) respectively, andthe total positive rate in bladder tumor tissues was 70％. Meanwhile, expression of the novel RON variant wesnot detected in the normalbladder mucosa. The positive expression rate of E1 1△ has no significant correlationamong the different clinical pathological tissues (x2 = 0. 620, P ＞ 0. 05 ). There was no statistical significancein expression positive rate between different pathological grades ( Z =0. 221, P ＞0. 05 ) and clinical stages( Z = 0. 538, P ＞ 0. 05) as well. A novel RON splice variant, deletion of RON exon 11 3 476 - 3 539 ( E3476 -3539△) was fond in the pathological tissue. The positive expression rates of E3 476 -3 539 in TCCB,IPB and PUNLMP were 57％ (36/63), 43％ (3/7) and 56％ (5/9) respectively, and the total positive expression rate was 56％ (44/79). The positive rates of E3 476 -3 539△ in pathological grade I , Ⅱ and Ⅲ were 40％ ( 12/30), 67％ (10/15) and 78％ (14/18), and it's positive rates in clinical stage Tis +T1and T2 +T3 + T4 were 48％ (21/44) and 80％ (12/15). The differences in each group had significantly statistical significance ( Z = 7. 285, 5. 041, P ＜ 0. 05 ) . However, the positive rates amongdifferent pathological tissues had no significance (x2 = 0. 517, P ＞ 0. 05 ). Conclusions The expression level of RON mRNA is significantly associated with histological grading and clinical stage. RON may play an important role in the progression ofTCCB. Compared with the normal control, the increased RON variant expression may contribute to the carcinogenesis of the bladder tumor.
