ObjectiveTo study the fluoride level of preschool children influenced by fluoride toothpaste. MethodsAbout 200 children aged 3～6 years old were involved in the test. The children of test group were given fluoride toothpaste while the children of control group were given non-fluoride toothpaste. After two months, hair samples were gasified by high temperature and were tested with fluoride-specific electrode. Urinary fluoride concentration and 24h urinary fluoride excretion were also conducted by using fluoride-specific electrode.ResultsIt shows that the 24h urinary fluoride excretion and the fluoride concentration in hair and urine of children in control group were apparently lower than those of children in test group.ConclusionFluoride toothpastes used by preschool children may result in the change of fluoride level in their bodies under the stability of their daily habits and living cir cumstances. Age is likely to be one of the facts that can influence the fluoride ingestion level.

Objective: To observe influence of exercise on expressions of peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) and glucose transporter-4 (Glut-4) in skeletal muscle tissue of mice with insulin resistance (IR) induced by high fat diet, and preliminarily investigate mechanism of swimming training improves IR. Methods: A total of 30 eight-week-old healthy male C57BL /6J mice were randomly divided into normal diet group (n=10), high fat diet group (n=10) and high fat diet + exercise group (HE group, n=10, mice received 12-week swimming training). Body weight and fasting blood glucose (FBG) of mice were measured every week. After 12-week swimming training, fasting insulin (FINS) was measured by radioimmunoassay and IR index (IRI) was calculated; expressions of PPAR-γ and Glut-4 mRNA in skeletal muscle tissue were detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results: Compared with normal diet group, body weight significantly increased in high fat diet group; body weight of HE group was significantly lower than that of high fat diet group (P<0.05). Compared with normal diet group, there were significant increase in FINS, FBG and IRI in high fat diet group and HE group (P<0.01). Compared with high fat diet group, there were significant decrease in FINS [(14.00±7.12) mmol/L vs. (10.17±3.88) mmol/L], FBG [(9.49±1.28) mmol/L vs. (8.03±1.67) mmol/L] and IRI [(1.47±0.38) vs. (1.06±0.27), P<0.05 all], and significant increase in expressions of PPAR-γ [(0.95±0.17) vs. (2.37±0.41)] and Glut-4 mRNA [(0.68±0.24) vs. (1.54±0.28), P<0.01 both] in HE group. Conclusions: Exercise may significantly improve insulin resistance, and the mechanism may be related with upregulation of expressions of PPAR-γ and Glut-4 mRNA in skeletal muscle, regulation of glucose metabolism and promotion of transduction of insulin signal.

Objective To study the synthesis and degradation of collagen at the transcription level during liver fibrosis in rabbits with schistosomiasis japonica. Methods New Zealand rabbits infected with Schistosoma japonicum cercariae were served as animal models of liver fibrosis. The liver specimens were collected through operations at 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24 and 28 weeks after infection. TypeⅠcollagen, type Ⅲ collagen, type Ⅳ collagen, MMP\|1 and MMP\|9 mRNA levels of liver tissue were detected by RT\|PCR plus dot blotting, and the size of egg granulomas and the degree of liver fibrosis were measured by histopathological examinations. Results TypeⅠcollagen, type Ⅲ collagen, type Ⅳ collagen, MMP\|1 and MMP\|9 mRNA levels increased simultaneously in the early stage after the infection, mostly reaching their peaks at 10 weeks after infection. Compared with normal controls, type Ⅰ collagen, type Ⅲ collagen, type Ⅳ collagen, MMP\|1 and MMP\|9 mRNA levels increased by 12\^0 , 11\^0 , 6\^6 , 10\^0 and 11\^0\|fold, respectively, coinciding with the changes of egg granulomas. Thereafter, both collagen and collagenase mRNA levels decreased. TypesⅠ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ collagen mRNA levels declined to 2\|fold to 3\|fold compared with normal controls ( P 0\^05) at 28 weeks. This study showed that the synthesis and degradation of collagen remained dynamic balance in the early stage of schistosomiasis, while in the later stage the metabolism of collagen synthesis was higher than that of collagen degradation. Conclusion It was confirmed at the transcription level that when the metabolism of collagen synthesis was higher than that of collagen degradation in rabbits with schistosomiasis japonica, liver fibrosis might be produced.

Objective To construct and screen a hepatic stellate cells(HSCs) subtracted cDNA library, in order to seek differentially expressed genes in mice infected with Schistosoma japonicum. Methods HSCs were isolated from mouse as targets, and cDNA fragments of normal mouse were compared to those of S.japonicum infected mice to find differentially expressed genes by technique of suppression subtractive hybridization(SSH). Differentially expressed cDNA fragments were then directly inserted into T/A cloning vector to set up the subtractive library. Amplification of the library was carried out with transformation of DH5?. A subtracted cDNA library was constructed and then hybridized with forward and backward subtracted probes for differential screening. One hundred positive bacterial clones were randomly selected for sequencing and BLAST analysis. Finally, virtual Northern blot confirmed such differential expression. Results The amplified library contained more than 400 positive bacterial clones. Random analysis of 100 clones with restriction enzyme digestion showed that all clones contained 200-600 bp inserts. 76 ESTs were obtained with 70 related to fibrosis caused by schistosomiasis or other etiological factors. Other 6 ESTs were not found in PubMed. Conclusion The subtracted cDNA library of differentially expressed genes of HSC in normal mice and schistosome-infected mice was constructed successfully with SSH and T/A cloning techniques.

Objective To study the characteristics of pulmonary function in atypical asthmatic children with chest tightness or sighing breath as the sole presenting manifestation,and explore the diagnostic values of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) for the atypical asthma.Methods Seventy-nine atypical asthmatic children with chest tightness as the sole presenting manifestation during January 2012 to June 2015 were selected as subjects.All of the subjects performed spirometry,FeNO measurement,total serum IgE and specific IgE determination on their first visit,and with either positive bronchial provocation test or positive bronchial dilation test.As well as 100 healthy children who perfomred FeNO measurement were selected as control group during the same period.The pulmonary function data and FeNO values were analyzed in children who were finally confirmed as atypical asthma.Results In atypical asthma children,the abnormal rate of forced expiratory flow 50％,75％ (FEF50,FEF75) and maximum mid-expiratory flow (MMEF) were 27％,43％ and 33％.Methacholine provocation dose causing a 20％ fall in FEV1 (PD20-FEV1) were 0.41 (0.19 ～0.67)mg and were positively related with MMEF(r =0.301,P =0.007).FeNO concentration in atypical asthma patients were 13.0 × 10-9 (7.0 ×10-9 ～24.0 × 10-9),higher than that in control group(P ＜0.05).Significant correlations were found between FeNO and total serum IgE (r =0.672,P =0.001).No correlations were found between FeNO and FEV1 (P ＞0.05),between FeNO and FEV1/FVC％ (P ＞0.05) or between FeNO and PD20-FEV1 (P ＞0.05).The diagnostic values of FeNO for the atypical asthma were analyzed using the receiver operating characteristic curve,the area under the curve was 0.600.Conclusion The characteristics of pulmonary function in atypical asthma are hypofunction mainly in small airway and patients with lower MMEF had higher airway hyperresponsiveness.The diagnostic values of FeNO in atypical asthma are limited.

Objective To explore the pancreatic kininogenase enteric-coated tablets in the treatment of diabetic retinopathy (DR) patients and its effect on the optic disc and macula retinal hemodynamics. Methods 86 cases (140 eyes) of DR patients were randomly divided into pancreatic kininogenase group and normal group with 43 cases in each group, two groups were treated with basic therapy, pancreatic kininogenase group were combined with pancreatic kininogenase treatment. The best corrected visual acuity and the clinical effect of optic disc and macula retinal hemodynamic changes were compared between two groups. Results After treatment, the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in pancreatic kininogenase group was greater than the normal group (P<0.05), the retinal neovascularization and fluorescein leakage area in pancreatic kininogenase group was less than the normal group (P<0.05). The disc vascular and macular retinal blood flow volume (VOL), blood flow velocity (FLW)values in pancreatic kininogenase group were larger than those of normal group, and the clinical curative effect of pancreatic kininogenase group was better than that of normal group (P<0.05). Conclusion Pancreatic kininogenase enteric-coated tablets in the treatment of DR patients can improve the optic disc and macular retinal hemodynamic parameters, improve visual acuity and reduce the retinal neovascularization and fluorescein leakage area, so as to improve the clinical treatment effect.

Objective To observe the effect of combined continuous femoral nerve blockade (CFNB)with epidural morphine postoperative analgesia on total knee arthroplasty (TKA)in elderly patients.Methods Eighty elderly patients scheduled to undergo TKA were randomly divided into two groups:groups FN and FNM.Groups FNM and FN were received 0.1% morphine 2 ml and normal saline 2 ml through epidural space respectively at the end of surgery.After surgery,all patients were implanted catheter around femoral nerve guided by ultrasound,and were infused 0.2% ropivacaine 25 ml.Continuous infusion of 0.2% ropivacaine for femoral never block was administrated at a rate of 5 ml/h for 48 hours to all patients.VAS scores and bending degree during rest,active and passive exer-cise were recorded at time point of postoperative 24,48,72,96 h.Ambulation status on the fifth day after operation were observed.Satisfaction of hospitalization were graded before hospital discharge. Results Compared with group FN,VAS scores during rest,active and passive excercise were signifi-cantly decrease at 24 h in group FNM (P <0.05 or P <0.01).The bending degree of knee joints in group FNM were significantly greater compared with group FN at 24 h after surgery (P <0.01).Am-bulation status on the fifth day after surgery were significantly better in group FNM compared with group FN (P <0.05).The level of patient satisfaction was much higher in group FNM (P <0.05). Conclusion After TKA,CFNB combined with single epidural morphine injection can provide better analgesia and bending degree with a high level of satisfaction.

Objective To analyze the relationship between the morphological characteristics and rotator cuff tear (RCT) by MR.Methods The data of clinic and shoulder MRI of 37 patients with RCT (patients group) were analyzed retrospectively,and 19 healthy volunteers were collected in control group.The acromial shapes were classified into type Ⅰ (flat),type Ⅱ (curved),type Ⅲ (hooked) and type Ⅳ (convex).Additional measurements about pathogenesis of RCT including acromio-humeral distance (AHD),acromial index (AI),lateral acromial angle (LAA) and acromial thickness were performed for further assessment.Results Type Ⅱ was the most commonly encountered acromial shape in patients group (16/37,43.24 ％) and control group (11/19,57.89 ％).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of each acromial shape between two groups (P＞0.05).However,the AHD,AI,LAA and acromial thickness showed statistically significant difference between the patients group and control group (all P＜0.05).The type Ⅲ acromion was signifi candy different from the other types in patients group (P＜0.05).Conclusion MRI can clearly display RCT.The AHD and LAA are smaller,the AI and acromial thickness are bigger in RCT patients.Type Ⅲ acromion may increase risks for RCT.
