Objective: To observe the effects of salvianolic acid B (Sal B) on isoproterenol (ISO)-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy of neonatal rats and clarify the underlying mechanisms. Methods: Hypertrophy in neonatal rat ventricular myocytes was induced by ISO. The effect of Sal B on the myocardial viability of neonatal rats was measured by MTT. The mRNA expression levels of ANP and BNP were detected by RT-PCR. Colorimetric method was employed to measure SOD activity and MDA content. The expression levels of JAK1 and STAT3 were assessed by Western blotting. Results: Sal B at different concentration had no effect on the myocardial viability of neonatal rats. Compared with the model group, Sal B at 10 and 20 μmol/L could obviously down-regulate the gene expression levels of ANP and BNP (P < 0.01, 0.05), significantly increase SOD activity, and decrease MDA content. The protein expression levels of JAK1/STAT3 were down-regulated (P < 0.01, 0.05). Conclusion: Sal B could effectively inhibit ISO-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy of neonatal rats and the mechanism may be related with the anti-oxidative stress and the inhibition of JAK1/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Objective To clone and express the E2 gene in envelope region of hepatitis C virus and detect the anti E2 in sera of patients with HCV infection,using the purified E2 Protein.Methods The gene fragment of E2 region was obtained from the sera of patients with HCV infection by random primer reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction(PCR),and then cloned into procaryotic expression system to express and Purify the protein and detect its antigenicity.Results A segment of E2 region gene with correct code reading frame was obtained,its full length was 984 bp and molecular weight of expressed Protein was 38kD.The detection of the protein performed by ELISA with sera from the patients with HCV infection,testified that it had appropriate antigenicity.Conclusion This experiment can provide the fundamental data for researching on the basic characteristics of HCV envelope protein,nuderstanding the significance of serological diagnosis and designing the anti HCV vassine.

Objective To compare the safety of dexmedetomidine-versus remifentanil-based topical anesthesia for awake intubation.Methods PubMed,EMBASE,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,Chinese Biomedical Database,CNKI and Wanfang Database were searched from January 1990 to April 2016 for randomized controlled trials involving the safety of dexmedetomidine-and remifentanil-based topical anesthesia for awake intubation.The following data were extracted:the rate of successful intubation at first attempt and development of hypertension,hypotension,bradycardia,tachycardia,respiratory depression,bucking,body movement,sore throat,hoarseness and postsurgical memory of intubation.Meta-analysis was conducted using the RevMan 5.3 software.Results Ten studies involving 528 patients were included in this meta-analysis,and there were 262 cases in dexmedetonidine group and 266 cases in remifentanil group.Compared with remifentanil group,the incidence of respiratory depression and postsurgical memory of intubation were significantly decreased (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the rate of successful intubation at first attempt and incidence of hypertension,hypotension,bradycardia,tachycardia,bucking,body movement,sore throat and hoarseness in dexmedetomidine group (P＞0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine-based topical anesthesia provides higher safety than remifentanil-based topical anesthesia when used for awake intubation.

In the special education field, sports are benefit to body and mental health, and also can improve abilities of taking care by self and adapting society. In this article, the authors summarized both domestic and foreign researches on the problem of intellectual influence of sports activities on mental retardation children, and put forward the future research direction and prospect.

Objective To compare the safety and effectiveness of duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection (DPPHR) with pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (PPPD) in the treatment of chronic pancreatitis with a pancreatic head mass.Methods Medline,Biosis,Cochrane Library,Science Citation Index Database,CBM Database,Wan Fang and CNKI were searched systematically.The bias risk of the included trials was assessed according to the assessing tools as suggested by the Cochrane Handbook.Review Manage 5.2 was used to perform the statistical analysis.Results 7 RCTs with 226 patients were included in the meta-analysis which showed that there were no significant differences between PPPD and DPPHR in overall postoperative morbidity,postoperative hospital stay,complete pain relief,pancreatic fistula,exocrine insufficiency,symptom score at 5 to 7-year follow-up,and quality of life score at 14 to 15-year follow-up (P ＞ 0.05).While DPPHR had significant superiorities in operation time,blood replacement,delayed gastric emptying,occupational rehabilitation after the operations,weight gain,quality of life score at 1 to 2-year follow-up,symptom score at 5 to 7-year follow-up,and physical functioning score at 14 to 15-year follow-up.Conclusions DPPHR is more favourable than PPPD in reducing the use of blood replacement,shortening operation time,delayed gastric emptying,occupational rehabilitation after the operations,weight gain,physical functioning,and in improving quality of life of patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of protective effect of Xuebijing injection on vascular endothelial cells in rats with heat stress.Methods Ninety Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into control, model and Xuebijing injection treatment groups, 30 rats in each group. Heat stress model was reproduced by placing rats in constant temperature box at 40℃, 60% relative humidity for 1 hour, Xuebijing injection group was treated by intraperitoneal injection of Xuebijing 2.5 g/kg, while the control and model groups were treated by intraperitoneal injection of normal saline 2 mL/kg, once a day only in 1 day for both groups. After model establishment, the rectum temperature, heart rate and the mean arterial pressure(MAP) were recorded at 2, 6, 12 hours in each group. At the same time, the rat abdominal aortic blood was collected and serum was separated, the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was used to determine the aortic serum levels of lipopolysaccharide(LPS), nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB) and p53, and the prothrombin time(PT), activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT) and D-dimer of venous blood were detected by automatic blood coagulation analyzer(ACLTOP).Results Compared with those in control group, the rectum temperature, heart rate, LPS, NF-κB, p53, PT, APTT, D-dimer were significantly increased, and MAP was obviously decreased in model group(P<0.05 orP<0.01). Compared with model group, the above indexes were improved significantly in Xuebijing injection treatment group at 2 hours〔rectum temperature(℃): 38.02±0.22 vs. 39.32±0.33, heart rate(bpm): 507±14 vs. 562±35, MAP(mmHg, 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa): 98±6 vs. 87±13, LPS(ng/L): 0.65±0.03 vs. 0.82±0.05, NF-κB(ng/L): 1.10±0.04 vs. 1.33±0.05, p53(ng/L): 1.33±0.03 vs. 1.73±0.02, PT(s):15.47±1.03 vs. 20.28±2.01, APTT(s): 40.26±2.46 vs. 47.46±3.51, D-dimer(μg/L): 238.54±8.32 vs. 323.12±8.14,P<0.05 orP<0.01〕.Conclusion Xuebijing injection can correct the disorders of blood PT, APTT, D-dimer via decreasing the secretion of the levels of NF-κB, p53 from vascular endothelial cells in rats with heat stress, thus the integrity of the vascular endothelium can be protected, and LPS entering into the blood stream can be inhibited.
