Objective To explore diagnosisand treatment of intestinal obstruction by foodballs in children. Methods The clinical datum of 21 cases of intestinal obstruction by foodballs in children were retrospectively ana- lyzed.Results While admission,only 2 cases could provide the history of having eaten foodballs wholly which could not be digested easily.The characteristics of clinical manifestation were intestinal obstruction completely or incom- pletely.All 21 cases had been treated conservatively first,only one case was successful and the other 20 cases had been cured by surgery afterwords.Conclusion There is no specific feature in clinical manifestations of intestinal ob- struction by foodballs in children,so it is difficult to make the diagnosis,but it must be considered suspicious especial- ly for those from rural area and with simple intestinal obstruction with reasons not known yet.If conservative therapy is failure in a short period,an operation should be done immediately.During operation,it is necessary to examine the whole digestive system thoroughly.

Objective To investigate the impact of anesthetization and manipulation on neurotransmitters glutamate and dopamine during cell transplantation. Methods Neural stem cells cultured in vitro from postnatal rats were implanted into the striatum of normal adult rats. Brain microdialysis combined with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was applied to dynamically detect the impact of microdialysis probe implantation, anesthetics ketamine and pentobarbital and implanted cells etc on glutamate and dopamine levels. Results After 15 min probe implantation into the rat striatum, glutamate and dopamine levels in the striatum increased, evidently higher than the baseline value and declined to the baseline level within about 5-6 h. Ketamine and pentobarbital anesthetization for 15 rain resulted in a transient increase in glutamate and dopamine levels in the rat striamm;there were no significant effects on in vivo glutamate and dopamine levels by cell implantation itself. Conclusion Routine doses of intraperitoneal ketamine or pentobarbital anesthetization may result in a transient increase in glutamate and dopamine levels within the brain extracellular space. Based on these data, the optimal time for commencing brain microdialysis on glutamate and dopamine should be at least 6 h after probe implantation.

Objective To study the survival,migration and differentiation of the neural stem cells which transplanted into ventral horn of spinal cord after brachial plexus avulsion.Methods Neural stem ceils isolated from spinal cord of neogenetic rats and cultured,expanded,labeled by BrdU before transplanted. Twenty adult healthy SD rats preformed as the model of brochial plexus avulsion(Roots C_(5~7)),then transplan- rod stem ceils into the C_6 ventral horn of spinal cord.On 1,2,4,8,12 weeks postoperatively,immunohisto- chemistry assay were carried out in the spinal cord.Results Transplanted into ventral horn of spinal cord after brachial plexus avulsion.Neural stem cells can survive,migrate for at least one segment of spinal cord and differentiate to neurons and astrocytes.The differentiation of stem cells were time-depends.Conclusion Neural stem cells can survive,migrate and differentiate after transplanted into ventral horn of spinal cord in the rats which suffered from brachial plexus avulsion.

Objective To retrospectively investigate and compare the clinical features in type 2 diabetic patients with various lesions of diabetic nephropathy.Methods One hundred and fifty patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus were registered from December 1990 to April 2004,among them 73 cases of diffuse glomerulosclerosis (DIF)and 77 nodular glomerulosclerosis(NOD)were all proven by renal biopsy.Data such as the durations of diabetes mellitus and hypertension,body mass index(BMI),diabetic retinopathy,HbA_1c,plasma albumin, proteinuria,urine N-acetyl-?,-glucosaminidase,urine osmolarity,ereatinine clearance rate(Ccr)were collected and compared.Results(1)Compared with the patients with DIF,the patients with NOD had longer duration of diabetes mellitus[(122.0?8.1 vs 56.0?7.8)months,P

The M and NP genes of H5N1 avian influenza virus (A/chicken/Hubei/489/2004) were amplified by RT-PCR from viral RNA,and cloned into pMD 18-T vector respectively.The expression plasmid containing the M gene (pHM6-m) or the NP gene (pHM6-np) was then constructed by inserting the M or NP gene into the pHM6 eukaryote expression vector; the constructed plasmid was then sequenced.32 BALB/c mice (6-week-old) were divided into four groups at random.Three groups of BALB/c mice were inoculated one time the intramuscular route with either 30 μg of plasmid pHM6-m,30 μg of plasmid pHM6-np or the mixture of plasmid pHM6-m (15 μg ) and pHM6-np(15 μg) respectively.A additional group of mice were injected with 100 μ1 PBS as controls.Two weeks later,all mice were challenged with homologous H5N1 avian influenza virus,and observed in the following 12 days.The survival rates of mice in the pHM6-m group,the pHM6-np group and mixed plasmids group were 62.5% ,25.0% and 50.0%,respectively.Results showed that effective protection could be provided by either pHM6-m or pHM6-np,but pHM6-m provided a better protective effect than pHM6-np.
