Objective To study the effect of S2-protein from SARS coronavirus on the chloride channel currents in A549 cells and its possible cellular mechanisms. Methods The chloride channel currents were recorded in cultured A549 cells by using the whole-cell mode of patch clamp techniques. The experiments were divided into four groups: Control group: chloride channel currents were recorded in untreated A549 cells; S2 protein group: currents were recorded in A549 cells treated with S2 protein (final concentration 50?g/ml); calphostin C + S2 protein group: the effect of S2 protein on the currents in A549 cells pretreated with calphostin C (0.1mmol/L) for 10 minutes; SB203580+S2 protein group: the effect of S2 protein on the currents was examined with the solution containing SB203580 (20?mol/L). Results The currents of chloride channel in normal A549 cells showed outwardly rectifying properties and were insensitive to both TEA and amiloride, but were significantly inhibited both by SITS and DIDS (P

Objective To investigate the distribution of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of-251 (rs4073) in cytokine interleukin 8 gene promoter region and +781 (rs2227306) in the first intron in Nantong area population, to explore the correlation between the genotypes of these sites and the risk of suffering hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and to analyze the interaction between the genotypes and different exposure factors inducing the occurrence of HCC. Methods By using case-control study and restriction fragment length polymorphism polymerase chain reaction (RFLP-PCR) technique, the genotypes of IL-8 gene-251 site and+781 site were classified. Results (1) In individuals with-251 heterozygous mutation genotype AT the risk of developing HCC increased (OR=1.99, 95%CI: 1.01-3.85), and in individuals with +781 mutation genotype CT and TT the risk of developing HCC increased (+781 CT genotype, OR=1.78, 95%CI:1.03-3.1; +781 TT genotype, OR=1.36, 95%CI: 1.01-2.62). (2) In individuals with -251 and +781 AT-CT, TT-CT, AT-CC combined genotypes the risk of developing HCC increased (AT-CT combined genotype, OR=2.10,95%CI:1.52-2.9;TT-CT combined genotype, OR=3.33, 95%CI: 1.01-10.50; AT-CC combined genotype, OR=3.67, 95%CI:2.28-5.90). (3)SNP of-251 had positive interactions with drinking, HBV infection and family history of HCC in the occurrence of HCC, while negative interactions existed between SNP of this site and exposure factors, including age, gender and smoking, in the occurrence of HCC. SNP of +781 had positive interactions with drinking and family history of HCC in the occurrence of HCC, while negative interactions existed between SNP of this site and exposure factors, including age, sex, smoking and HBV infection, in the occurrence of HCC. Conclusion Definite correlation exists between SNP of -251,+781 sites in interleukin 8 gene and the risk of the occurrence of HCC in Nantong area population;and there are interactive effects between SNP of -251, +781 sites in interleukin 8 gene and several exposure factors.

BACKGROUND:Stimulation of the pudendal nerve as a target can improve neurogenic bladder dysfunction after spinal cord injury, by adjusting the frequency, intensity, pulse width, as wel as regulating synergistic effect of detrusor and urethral sphincter. OBJECTIVE: To assess the research status of electrical stimulation of the pudendal nerve in the treatment of neurogenic bladder dysfunction after spinal cord injury. METHODS: We searched the folowing databases for articles addressing electrical stimulation of the pudendal nerve for neurogenic bladder dysfunction after spinal cord injury: PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controled Trials (CENTRAL), China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, and VIP Database. The search was updated to July 2014, and the reference lists of the identified studies were manualy screened for additional studies. The study selection and data extraction were independently conducted by two reviewers. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Fourteen studies were included in this review. We derived the folowing points by analyzing the included studies: Electrical stimulation of the pudendal nerve has positive effects on rehabilitation of neurogenic bladder dysfunction after spinal cord injury; pudendal nerve electrical stimulation can modulate the coordination of the detrusor and the external urethral sphincter, improve the bladder compliance and restore bladder function by regulating pudendal-to-bladder reflex and spinal reflexes to the bladder. Electrical stimulation of the pudendal nerve may be potentialy implemented as a feasible treatment of neurogenic bladder dysfunction after spinal cord injury. More high quality researches should be conducted to clarify the efficacy and the potential active mechanisms of pudendal nerve electrical stimulation for neurogenic bladder dysfunction after spinal cord injury because the number of clinical reports published in this study area is limited, neurophysiological mechanisms underlying biphasic regulation of frequency on bladder function are not wel known, and which intensity of pudendal nerve electrical stimulation is more effective than others for the treatment of neurogenic bladder dysfunction after spinal cord injury remains unknown.

Objective To study the relationship between the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction and components of metabolic syndrome.Methods A total of 10 461 working and retired employees aged 20 to 90 years in a Petrochemical Corporation in Ningbo were included.Body mass index ( BMI),waist circumference,blood pressure,fasting blood glucose,blood lipid profile,serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH),free thyroxine ( FT4 ),and free triiodothyronine (FT3 ) were measured in all subjects. Metabolic syndrome was diagnosed according to the International Diabetes Federation(IDF) criteria.Results ( 1 ) The prevalences of metabolic syndrome and overall thyroid dysfunction were 10.2％ and 4.6％,respectively. ( 2 ) 18.1％ petrochemical employees had abdominal obesity with at least one component of metabolic syndrome.( 3 ) There was no significant difference in the prevalence of metabolic syndrome among the groups with lowered,normal,and elevated TSH. (4) Logistic regression analysis revealed that lowered high density lipoprotein cholesterol ( HDL-C ) was associated with lowered TSH ( OR =0.313,95％ CI 0.184-0.530 ),and raised triglyceride was associated with elevated TSH ( OR =0.767,95％ CI 0.595-0.991 ). ( 5 ) There were significant associations between serum TSH levels and lipid parameters such as total cholesterol in males,triglyceride and low density lipoprotein cholesterol in females,and HDL-C in both genders.Conclusion The prevalence of thyroid dysfunction was not associated with central obesity,hypertension,and hyperglycemia.Lipid disorder was correlated with serum TSH levels.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of robot-assisted training on lower extremities of patients with stroke. Methods PubMed, Medline, EMbase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), ISI Web of Knowledge, Ovid, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data and VIP Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals were searched for the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about robot-assisted training for lower extremities of patients with stroke from the date of establishment to March 2013. The bibliographies of the retrieved studies were also searched. 2 independent researchers evaluated the included studies using the risk of bias provided by Cochrane Library. The extracted data were analyzed by RevMan 5.1 software. Results A total of 12 trials were discovered.Compared with conventional training, the robot-assisted training increased the score of Fugl-Meyer assessment (lower extremity)(WED=3.97, 95%CI: 2.84~5.10, Z=6.89, P<0.00001) and Berg Balance Scale (WED=3.13, 95%CI: 0.80~5.45, Z=2.63, P=0.008). However,the results of stride frequency (WED=8.40, 95%CI: -0.95~17.75, Z=1.76, P=0.08) and speed (WED=0.03, 95%CI: -0.02~0.07, Z=1.18, P=0.24) were not statistically significant. According to the Jadad Score of included studies, 4 of them were of low quality and 8 of them were of high quality. Conclusion The current evidence shows that to some extent, robot-assisted training could improve the lower extremities function.

Per2 gene plays one of the most critical roles of clock gene which modulates circadian rhythm both in the physiological, biochemical and behavioral processes of organisms. The distributions of per2 gene include suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus, central nucleus of amygdala, bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, hippocampus and other components of limbic system; it affects the emotional and visceral activities through participating in the system of circadian rhythm. The central per2 gene regulates the hypothalamus-pituitaryadrenal axis through integration of light input, steroid hormones and other neurotransmitters integration, acting on the target organs, and presentes a circadian rhythm of movement. This article reviewed the morphology and biology of per2 gene, and its participation in limbic system regulating the circadian rhythm of motional and visceral activities.

Objective To explore the relationship between thyroid hormone and colorectal adenomatous polyps (CAP) in middle-aged and elderly people.Methods We surveyed 3 042 middle-aged employees and retirees aged 45 years and over at a petrochemical enterprise of Ningbo.Their colonoscopic findings,body mass index,waist circumference and thyroid function were analyzed.Results Age and serum free triiodothyronine (FT3) of females with CAP were higher than those of the corresponding non-CAP group,so were age and waist circumference of males with CAP (P ＜ 0.05).Furthermore,these differences were statistically significant.The detection rate of CAP was significantly higher in males than in females (x2 =49.418,P ＜ 0.01).The detection rate of CAP was higher in females with higher levels of FT3.Multivariate unconditional logistic regression analyses showed the effects of thyroid hormone on the CAP differed by gender.Age and FT3 (OR =1.60,95％ CI:1.12-2.28,P =0.01) were correlated with CAP in females.However,only age and waist circumference were correlated with CAP in males.Conclusion Elevated FT3 may be a risk factor of CAP in elderly females.The detection rate of CAP may not be affected by FT3 levels in males.

Objective To investigate the mechanism and prevention of syncope on patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods Seventy-six cases of HOCM (obstruction group) were successfully operated by PTSMA and oral ACEI/ARB. After six months , they were treated with β-receptor blocker. Another 29 patients (control group) with LVOTPG < 50 mmHg or < 70 mmHg after pharmacologic stress test (PST), have being treated with β-receptor blocker. The results was observed as follow: (1) the difference of between syncope incidence and positive incidence induced by PST in control group; (2) the difference of syncope incidence at half year, a year and admission in control group; (3) the difference of syncope incidence in obstruction group before and after operation; (4) the difference of syncope incidence after six months between two groups at same period; (5) the difference of syncope incidence one year between two groups. Results In control group, the syncope positive incidence induced PST was 55.5%. Treating with medications for half a year , syncope incidence significantly dropped than that on admission (P < 0.05); Obstruction group syncope incidence in the history obviously lower than the control group syncope positive induced PST (P < 0.05), and half a year after takingβ-receptor blocker syncope incidence was significantly dropped than before (P < 0.01). Conclusions The mechanism of syncope with HOCM is not only obstruction but also neuronal reflex. PST is an very useful inspection item for screening the ablation indication, analysis syncope mechanism, and guiding clinical medication.β-receptor blocker is an effective drug on treating and preventing syncope with HCM.

Objective To explore the method and efficiency of percutaneous transluminal septal tunnet myocardial ablation(PTSTMA) in treatment of 26 cases hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) who were not suitable for conventional technology.Methods Firstly,we used a monorail Balloon which was slightly bigger than the interventricular septal branch of coronary artery and dilated it until posterior septal.After that,an OTW Balloon with larger size than the monorail was used to dilate again until made aventricular septum tunnel.Then,some alcohol was injected and PTSTMA was performed.Finally,we did the other and/or another interventricular septal branch by above method until the left ventricular outflow tract pressure gradient (LVOTPG) reduced ≥50％.The clinical indexes of the 26 cases HOCM immediately pest-operation of PTSTMA were observed and the follow up data during short term and metaphase were analyzed.Results The LVOTPG reduced ≥50％ in the26 cases HOCM,immediately after PTSTMA,the LVOTPG reduced from (75.6 ±22.4)mm Hg to (21.4 ± 5.8) mm Hg (t =11.94,P ＜ 0.01).At three months after ablation,the thickness of septal myocardium reduced from (22.8 ± 5.8) ram before ablation to (16.8 ± 4.2) mm(t =4.27,P ＜ 0.01),left atrium dimension reduced from(48.0 ±7.0) mm to (42.0 ±8.6) mm (t =2.76,P ＜0.01).Followed up 6.0to 60.0 months,the patients suffering from chest pain reduced from 14 cases before to 4 cases after the procedure(53.8％ (14/26) vs 15.4％ (4/26),x2 =8.49,P ＜ 0.01),the patients with expiratory dyspnea reduced from 26 cases to 5 cases(100％ (26/26) vs 19.2％ (5/26),x2 =35.22,P ＜ 0.01),NYHA functional class improved from (2.4 ± 0.6) to (1.4 ± 0.7) (t =5.53,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The PTSTMA was a supplemental method of PTSMA on treating HOCM,which was safe and useful during the short term and metaphase.
