The effect of intracerebroventricular microinjection of 0.1?g pentagastrin(G-5) on rat's gastris electricity and gastric movement were observed. The results showed that after intracerebroventricular microinjection of G-5 (0.1?g/10?l), the amplitude and frequency of rat's gastric electricity slow wave were increased from the control value of 0.56mV to 0.847mV (P

A mathematical model of electro-chemical cell was induced according to its electric model. Based on the mathematical model, Fourier transform (FT) was applied to separate the charging current from Faradaic current in fast scanning voltammetric signal. The proposed method was investigated with both simulated voltammogram and experimental voltammogram. The results indicate that the proposed methods can successfully separate the charging current from Fradaic current, and the result is consistent with theoretical model.

Objective To explore the normal range of the volume of frontal lobe in Chinese adults of the Han nationality and provide morphological data for the construction of database for Chinese Standard Brain. Methods This is a clinical multi-center study. Two hundred Chinese healthy volunteers (age range= 18 to 70) recruited from 16 hospitals were divided into 5 groups, i. e. , age range from 18 to 30, age range from 31 to 40, age range from 41 to 50, age range from 51 to 60, and age range from 61 to 70. Each group contained 20 males and 20 females. All of the volunteers were scanned by MR using T1 weighted threedimensional magnetization prepared rapid acquisition gradient echo sequence. We used the manual method to trace the region of interest and measured the left and right frontal lobe volumes separately. All the data were analyzed with SPSS (version 13.0). The sex differences in the frontal lobe volumes were analyzed by independent-samples t test, and the side differences were analyzed by paired-samples t test. Correlation and regression analysis was used between the age and the frontal lobe volumes. Results In 200 healthy Chinese Han volunteers, the total frontal lobe volumes was (563 ± 73) cm3. For male, the volumes of the left and the right frontal lobe were (288±42) cm3 and (292 ±41 ) cm3 ,respectively. The volumes of the left and right frontal lobe in 100 women were (273 ±30) cm3 and (274 ± 30) cm3 respectively. The differences of sex (t = 3. 334, P < 0. 05 ) and side ( t = - 3.09, P < 0. 05 ) in the total frontal lobe volumes reach significant. There was no significant differences in women ( t = - 1. 304, P > 0. 05 ). There were negative correlations between the frontal lobe volumes and age in men and women ( r = - 0. 586, - 0. 498, P <0. 01 ). Conclusions The total frontal lobe volume of men was larger than that of women. The volume of the right frontal lobe was larger than the left frontal lobe in men, and the asymmetries didn't exist in women.The total frontal lobe volumes were both shrinking with age in men and women, which was more rapid in men than in women.

Purpose To investigate the expression of DLC1 and its relationship with Ki-67 in cancerous and non-cancerous tissues of the breast.Methods In situ hybridization and immunohistochemiscal EnVision method were used to detect the expression of DLC1 mRNA and protein and Ki-67 in 52 invasive breast ductal carcinomas and 42 non-cancerous mammary tissues, including 22 mammary fibroadenomas and 20 paracancerous tissues.Results The positive rates of DLC1 mRNA and protein expression in the breast carcinomas (50% and 57.7%) was significantly lower than that in the non-cancerous mammary tissues (90.5% and 92.9%) (χ~2=17.518 and 10.729,P＜0.01).The expression of DLC1-mRNA was positively related to DLC1protein (r_s=0.379,P＜0.01). The positive rate of Ki-67 expression was 61.5% in the breast carcinomas, but no expression was observed in the all non-cancerous tissues (χ~2=39.186,P＜0.01).Correlation analysis showed that DLC1 expression was negatively correlated with Ki-67 expression (r_s=-0.507,P＜0.01).Conclusions Lower or no expression of DLC1 mRNA and protein may play an important role in the pathogenesis and progression in breast carcinoma. DLC1 may inhibit the proliferation of the breast carcinoma cells,which indicates that it may act as a new molecular marker of breast carcinoma.Combining detection of DLC1 and Ki-67 may be useful parameters for evaluating the biological behaviors of breast carcinoma.

Objective To master the current situation of Keshan disease(KD) and its trend in Yunnan Province,and scientifically evaluate the control and prevention measures.Methods According to the 2011 Endemic Disease Prevention and Control Project Implementation Plan and National Keshan Disease Mornitoring Program,choose Eryuang,Dali,Xiangyun,Wuding,Nanhua,Chuxiong and Mouding Counties(Cities)in Yunnan Province,that were seriously affected by Keshan disease,monitoring was carried out; 2 towns were selected in each county,and 1 village was selected as surveillance site in each selected town.All the residents were clinically examined and Electrocardiography tracing was taken.Suspected cases were given filmed chest X-ray and color echocardiography.KD cases were correctly diagnosed according to the diagnostic criteria.Results A total of 6 022 residents were investigated in the 14 investigation sites; 25 cases of KD were found,and the total incidence rate was 0.42％.Among the 25 KD cases,22 cases were latent KD,and the incidence rate was 0.37％; women(15 cases) were more than men (10 cases),and 10 patients were 3-14 years old,accounted for 40.00％(10/25).Potential KD 22 cases,including 10 cases of 3-14 years old; slow type of KD 3 cases,including 2 cases 45-54 years old.Electrocardiographic examination 6 022 residents,the abnormal rate was 20.44％.Among 32 X-ray films,28 cases had a cardiothoracic ratio less than or equal to 0.50,2 cases from 0.51 to 0.55,1 case from 0.56 to 0.60,and 1 case more than or equal to 0.61.Conclusions The results of KD surveillance have presented a downward trend in Yunnan Province,and the incidence rate of KD is lower.But the pathogenic factors are still active,which is harmful to children health in KD areas.In future,surveillance of children KD should be strengthened,control measures should be implemented,in order to guarantee the health of people who lived in KD areas.

Objective In order to master the current prevalence situation of dilated cardiomyopathy in Yunnan Province.Methods An investigation of dilated cardiomyopathy was carried out in 17 counties from August to December in 2011 in non-Keshan disease areas.Two townships (towns) that similar to Keshan disease areas in natural environment,pattern of production and lifestyle in non-Keshan disease areas were selected in each project county,and 1 village was selected as surveillance site in each selected township(town).The number of resident in each village no less than 500 people was appropriate and deficiency was supplemented from neighboring villages.The sampling rate was no less than 80％.Clinical examination and electrocardiographic tracings were carried out.The patients with suspected dilated cardiomyopathy and latent Keshan disease were taken anteroposterior chest X-ray in accordance with the National Non-Keshan Disease Area Dilated Cardiomyopathy Condition Survey Program.The surveillance was carried out based on The National Investigation Scheme of Dilated Cardiomyopathy in Non-Keshan Disease Areas.Cases were diagnosed based on the diagnostic standard of dilated cardiomyopathy and suspected latent Keshan disease.Results In the 34 villages of 17 selected counties,14 545 people were investigated.Twenty-six cases of latent dilated cardiomyopathy and suspected latent Keshan disease were detected,and the total detection rate was 17.88/million.One case was dilated cardiomyopathy,and 25 cases were suspected latent Keshan disease,detection rates were 0.69/million and 17.19/million,respectively.Male and female cases were 15 and 11,respectively.The ratio of people aged 65 and older accounted for 42.31％(11/26),among them suspected latent Keshan disease accounted for 44.00％(11/25),and 1 case of dilated cardiomyopathy was in the 45 to 54 years old group.Electrocardiographic examination of 14 519 people,the abnormal rate was 8.13％(1 180/14 519).Among 112 chest X-ray films,104 cases had a cardiothoracic ratio less than or equal to 0.50,4 cases from 0.51 to 0.55,3 cases from 0.56 to 0.60,and 1 case more than or equal to 0.61.Conclusion The detection rate of dilated cardiomyopathy cases is lower in non-Keshan disease area of Yunnan Province,but suspected latent Keshan disease is detected.

Objective To analyze the characteristic of Yunnan unexpected sudden death (YUSD) cases by pathological diagnosis of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC),in order to offer clue for ARVC etiologic research of YUSD.Methods The pathological diagnosis results of 9 cases of sudden death of ARVC in Yunnan,as well as epidemiological investigation data,were used to comprehensively analyze the pathological features of the pathological diagnosis of ARVC in Yunnan.Results The 9 cases including 8 females and 1 male,aged 16-47 years.The sudden death time was from June to August,mainly distributed in 8 families from the disease seriously ridden 7 villages.Three of them had a genetic history of family YUSD,2 cases had a history of mental stimulation,1 case had eaten Trogia venenata;and acute symptoms and signs were palpitation,chest tightness,shortness of breath,and loss of consciousness.Pathological observations were the typical ARVC change,mainly right ventricular lesions,with different degrees of cardiac enlargement and extensive adipose tissue infiltration in the ventricular wall.Among them,6 cases of fat infiltration almost reached the full thickness of the heart wall.In addition to the pathological changes of ARVC,8 cases were accompanied by one or several pathological changes in myocarditis,cardiac dysplasia,nephropathy,pulmonary edema,pneumonia and pancreatitis.Of the 9 cases,5 cases were diagnosed with ARVC,2 cases with ARVC and pulmonary edema,1 case with ARVC and acute hemorrhagic necrotizing pancreatitis,and 1 case with ARVC and Trogia venenata poisoning.The clinical examination abnormalities of the family members of the cases mainly showed arrhythmogenic electrocardiography changes and abnormal myocardial enzymes.Conclusions The nine cases have showed typical epidemiology characteristics of YUSD,and cardiachistological changes are consistent with the ARVC pathological diagnostic criteria.A part of YUSD cases may be caused by ARVC,and the inference will be proved by cadaveric pathologic examination and related pathogenic gene detection.

Objective In this study,we explored the role of combination of autophagy inhibition and anti-VEGF in proliferation,migration and tube formation of mouse retinal vascular endothelial cells(RVECs). Methods Well cultured mouse RVECs were randomly divided into four groups:autophagy inhibition group(add-ing autophagy inhibitor 3-MA),anti-VEGF group(adding anti-VEGF-A neutralized antibody),autophagy inhibi-tion+anti-VEGF group(adding the two reagents)and the control group.All cells were then cultured in the hypoxic condition. The cell proliferation,migration and tube formation were detected by EdU,transwell and matrigel as-say,respectively. Results The cell proliferation rate,number of migrated cells and number of tube formation of the other three groups decreased when compared with the control group.These data above in autophagy inhibition+anti-VEGF group were all significantly less than 3-MA group and anti-VEGF group. Conclusion Combination of autophagy inhibition and anti-VEGF may be more effective than simple anti-VEGF in inhibition of retinal neovascu-larization.

The STandards for Reporting Interventions in Clinical Trials Of Moxibustion (STRICTOM), in the form of a checklist and descriptions of checklist items, were designed to improve reporting of moxibustion trials, and thereby facilitating their interpretation and replication. The STRICTOM checklist included 7 items and 16 sub-items. These set out reporting guidelines for the moxibustion rationale, details of moxibustion, treatment regimen, other components of treatment, treatment provider background, control and comparator interventions, and precaution measures. In addition, there were descriptions of each item and examples of good reporting. It is intended that the STRICTOM can be used in conjunction with the main CONSORT Statement, extensions for nonpharmacologic treatment and pragmatic trials, and thereby raise the quality of reporting of clinical trials of moxibustion. Further comments will be solicited from the experts of the CONSORT Group, the STRICTA Group, acupuncture and moxibustion societies, and clinical trial authors for optimizing the STRICTOM.

Purpose To explore the correlation between multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) findings of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET) and different histological grades,so as to improve the diagnostic accuracy.Materials and Methods MSCT data of 35 pathologically confirmed pNET were retrospectively analyzed.All patients underwent CT plain scan and three-phased contrast-enhanced CT scan.The imaging features and the enhanced parameters in each stage were analyzed.Results Among the 35 pNET,there were 15 G 1,15 G2 and 5 G3.There was no statistically significant difference in age,gender and endocrine function among different grades (P＞0.05).The number of lesions with intact capsule in G1,G2 and G3 was 11,5 and 0,respectively;the number of lesions with cystic change or necrosis was 3,9,and 4,respectively;and the number of lesions with sign of malignancy (locally invasion or metastasis) was 1,1 and 4,respectively.The differences in completeness of capsule,cystic change or necrosis and sign of malignancy among different grades were all statistically significant (P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis suggested that only peripancreatic tissue invasion or metastasis was significantly associated with pathological classification (OR=0.09,95％ CI 0.01-0.86,P＜0.05).The three-stage absolute enhanced degree and the enhanced percentage of pNET in different grades,as well as the relative enhanced degree between lesions in arterial phase and portal venous phase were all statistically significantly different (P＜0.05).Conclusion The MSCT findings of pNET with different pathological grades have certain characteristic.Peripancreatic tissue invasion or metastasis is associated with high-grade tumors,and CT features of different grades can contribute to the preoperative grading of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
