Objective To test and analyse the characteristics of double three field iono chamber developed by ourselves. Methods We tested the time characteristic, dose rate characteristic and X ray quality characteristic by using direct test method, and current characteristic, voltage characteristic and thickness characteristic of double three field iono chamber by using photograph test method with NERO 6000B test meter, RF 500 mA X ray equipment and so on. The results were analysed. Results The time characteristic and dose rate characteristic had satisfied linear scales(the return coefficients of linety scales were R =0.999 61 and R = 0.998 88 respectively). The X ray quality characteristic was steady (the maximum output variation was ? max ≤?5%). The good characteristics of current, voltage and thickness were found(the maximum variations of film density were ?D max ≤?0.01, ?D max ≤?0.15 and ?D max ≤?0.06 respectively). The excellent repeat was showed (repeating error of exposure time and dose were ?T max ≤?0.004 s and ?X max ≤0.01?10 -5 C/kg). Conclusion The performace of the new Iono chamber is excellent and steady, so it has practical value.

Objective To observe the change of nitric oxide(NO) and superoxide dismutase(SOD) in the epileptic rat brain cortex, and study the effect of the redox states of NO on epilepsy.Methods Using epileptic rat model induced by bemegride, the level of NO and the activity of SOD were measured in rat cerebral motor cortex during and only after seizures.Results The level of NO in rat cerebral motor cortex was significantly increased during and only after seizures than the normal controls. During seizures, SOD activity was decreased; but only after seizures, SOD activity was significantly increased.Conclusion The value of SOD activity than NO content had significantly difference in rat cerebral cortex between during and only after transient seizures. These results suggested that the different redox state of NO would play different role du ring the seizure.

AIM: To investigate the possibility of 3T3 fibroblast growth on blood fibrin clot in culture medium with recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (rhbFGF). METHOD: Growth of the cells on blood fibrin clot was studied by phase-contrast, scanning and transmission electron microscopy and by Giemsa stain and MTT assay. RESULTS: The optimal concentration of rhbFGF for proliferation and survival of the cells was 100 ng/mL. The cells also grew on blood fibrin clot scaffold in the low-serum medium containing 100 ng/mL rhbFGF, and a greater number of the cells survived after 48 hours incubation compared to that after 24 hours. The elongated filopodia appeared to bridge the gaps among the fibroblasts after 24 hours incubation. Further incubation to 72 hours, a greater number of platycytes were found to be joined together by lamellopodia. CONCLUSION: 3T3 fibroblasts could grow and survive on blood fibrin clot in the low-serum medium containing rhbFGF, and a combination of blood fibrin clot and rhbFGF may have over proportional effects on wound healing.

Objective To compare and analyze the performance indexes and the imaging quality of the home and imported X-ray machines through testing their partial imaging performance parameters. Methods By separate sampling from 10 home and 10 imported X-ray machines, the parameters including tube current, time of exposure, machine total exposure, and repeatability were tested, and the imaging performance was evaluated according to the national standard. Results All the performance indexes met the standard of GB4505-84. The first sampling tests showed the maximum changing coefficient of imaging performance repeatability of the home X-ray machines was ?max1=0.025,while that of the imported X-ray machine was ?max1=0.016. In the second sampling tests, the maximum changing coefficients of the two were ?max2=0.048 and ?max2=0.022, respectively. Conclusion The 2 years′ follow-up tests indicate that there is no significant difference between the above-mentioned parameters of the elaborately adjusted home X-ray machines and imported ones, but the home X-ray machines are no better than the imported X-ray machines in stability and consistency.

Objective:To discuss the influence of bifid triple viable enteric-coated capsules on liver function and inflammatory fac-tor in the patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis ( NASH) . Methods:Totally 70 cases of patients with NASH were selected and di-vided into the control group and the observation group at random. The patients in the two groups were all given routine hepatoprotective therapy. The patients in the observation group were additionally given 420mg bifid triple viable enteric-coated capsules, three times a day for 4 weeks. Except for bifid triple viable enteric-coated capsules, the patients in the control group were given the same medical treatment as that in the observation group. The changes of liver function index, serum high sensitivity C reaction protein ( hs-CRP) , IL-6 and IL-8 levels in the two groups before and after the medical treatment were observed and the security was compared. Results:After the 4-week medical treatment, ALT, GGT, serum hs-CRP, IL-6 and IL-8 levels in the two groups were obviously declined than those before the treatment (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01), and the declining rate in the observation group was much higher than that in the control group (P<0. 05). Totally 6 and 4 cases of adverse drug reaction (ADR) respectively appeared in the observation group and the control group during the medical treatment with mild symptom, and the difference was without statistical significance (P>0. 05). Conclusion:Bifid triple viable enteric-coated capsules in the treatment of NASH can obviously reduce the serum hs-CRP, IL-6 and IL-8 levels, inhibit the intrahepatic inflammation and immunologic injury, and improve the liver function index with high security.

Drug metabolism studies, including in vivo and in vitro metabolism studies, are significant in the design of candidate compounds and screening of lead compounds at drug discovery/development stages. Compared with in vivo metabolism studies, in vitro metabolism studies have the advantages of rapidity, simplicity, without consumption of large amounts of samples and animals. Moreover, it is convenient for researchers to observe the selective interaction between compound and target. Therefore, in vitro metabolism studies are appropriate for high throughput screening of compounds which are lack of metabolism information and have been widely used during drug discovery stages. This article briefly introduced the application of in vitro drug metabolism studies based on the metabolic stability, reaction phenotyping and metabolic drug-drug interactions, aiming to raise valuable evaluation strategies for innovative drug discovery in China.

OBJECTIVETo explore the causes, clinic diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) of the chest.

METHODSThe clinical data of 12 patients with IMT were retrospectively analyzed including 9 male and 3 female patients aged 36 to 81 years (mean 60.08 years). Five patients underwent pulmonary lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection, 1 had partial lobectomy, 1 had mediastinal tumor resection and costectomy, and 2 received conservative treatment.

RESULTSAll the surgical patients recovered after surgery without lymph node metastasis detected by pathological examinations. In the follow-up lasting for 2 months to 5 years, no recurrence or metastasis occurred in these cases. In the 2 cases having conservative treatment, the tumor remained unchanged in one case at 3 month of follow-up and disappeared in the other case.

CONCLUSIONIMT in the chest is a rare benign tumor with a low incidence rate and malignancy. Pathological examination is reliable for definite diagnosis. Surgical operation is the primary therapeutic approach. All IMT patients should be closely followed up after the treatment.
