Objective To explore the relationship between the serum level of leptin,growth hormone(GH),insulin like growth factor-1(IGF-1),insulin like growth factor binding protein-3(IGFBP-3)and those modulatine effects on fetal growth.Methods One hundred and thirty-five cases of newborns were divided into 4 groups according to the relationship between born weight and gestational age.Group A:premature infants small for gestational age(SGA),n=30.Group B:premature infants appropriate for gestational age(AGA),n=36.Group C:mature infants small for gestational age,n=32.Group D:mature infants appropriate for gestational age,n=37.All infants were measured se-rum leptin,GH,IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 level with radiommunosassay(RIA).Results There were significant difference in the levels of leptin,GH,IGF-1,IGFBP-3 as group C0.05).There were positive correlation between levels of leptin,IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 in group A,B and C,while,there was positive correlation between only level of IGF-1 in group D.Conclusions Leptin,IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 may play an important role in the fetal growth regulation of premature infants and IUGR infants.IGF-1 also regulate intrauterine growth of group D.Another side,in group D,Leptin,GH,IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 don't regulate fetal growth.

Objective:To determine the curative effect of Ginkgo Biloba extract on the back chapped skin in SD rats. Methods:Totally 60 SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups with 10 rats in each. One group was the blank control group, while the other five groups with the same back chapped skin were respectively treated with different therapy regimen, namely one group was the model group without any treatment, one group was urea group treated with the commercially available urea, and the last three groups were re-spectively treated with Ginkgo Biloba extract at the dose of 5%, 1% and 0. 2%. The pathological tissue was observed after HE stai-ning, and the content of hydroxyproline ( Hyp) in skin was determined by alkaline hydrolysis. Results:The skin lesion and the score of pathological section were studied and the content of Hyp in the damaged skin was determined. The comprehensive score for the groups was 0, 13. 2, 7. 4, 11. 0, 5. 8 and 6. 6, respectively, and the content of Hyp was (4. 57 ± 0. 07), (2. 41 ± 0. 27), (3. 29 ± 0.57), (2.55 ±0.31), (3.24 ±0.26) and (3.37 ±0.24) μg·mg-1,respectively. There was significant difference in the curative effect between the Ginkgo Biloba extract groups at high dose (5%) and medium dose (1%) and the model group (P<0. 05), which showed no obvious difference when compared with the urea group (P>0. 05). Conclusion:The extract of Ginkgo Biloba has a certain effect on the back chapped skin in SD rats, which may contribute to the external preparations of Ginkgo Biloba extract.

The nutritive composition from tissues of Perinereisaibuhitensis was analyzed. The result indicated that there was 67. 43% amino acids and 14. 24% fatty acids in the tissues, a-mong them the EPA comprises 6. 5343% of the total fatty acids and the glutamic acid comprises 10. 288% of the whole tissues. In the meanwhile, the tissues also contains high content of trace elements, such as zinc, iodine, selenium as well as fibrinolytic enzymes and so on, showing a prospective application value in the future.

Active fractions were obtained from the c(?)amworm homogenate by reverse-phase concentration, gel filtration and affinity column chromatography. The MTS/PMS assay was used in the screening of antimicrobial peptide in vitro. The MTS/PMS assay and ELISAAFP method were combined to evaluate the effects of antimicrobial peptide on the proliferation and ?-fetoprotein secretion of HepG2 cells as well as on the proliferation of normal mouse osteoblast MC3T3-E1. The results showed that the purified antimicrobial peptide from clamworm Murphysa sanguinea was a constitutive basic protein with MW 8.1 kDa and pI 8.6, which showed inhibition effects on the proliferation and ?-fetoprotein secretion of HepG2 cells at different levels. These effects have a positive correlation with the concentrations of antimicrobial peptide. No obvious inhibition and damage effects were observed on the normal osteoblast.

The studies on the antihypoxia mechanism of 18?-SGA were reported. The survival time of hypoxia mice were longer than those of the control after intraperitoneal injections of 14mg/kg or 21mg/kg of 18?-SGA ( Sodium 18?-glycyrrenetic acid). Changes of various physiological indications after administration of the drug were as follows: blood pH was risen; acidosis was relieved; and the partial pressure of oxygen in the mixed blood was decreaed. The blood thyroxine level remain unchanged. It suggests the utilization of oxygen by the tissues was strengthened.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of gentamicin solution in transurethral ureteroscopic lithotripsy to prevent postop- erative infection.Methods Prospective clinical randomized control study was conducted.From July 2003 to June 2006,116 ca- ses of ureteral stones at high risk of postoperative infection were randomized into control group or gentamicin group.Patients in gentamicin group received gentamicin solution for washing in the operation.All the patients undergoing operation were followed up for 2 weeks after operation.Diagnosis of postoperative infection was based on clinical manifestations.Results A total of 109 patients received operation in all the 116 cases,including 58 cases in gentamicin group and 51 cases in control group.Thirteen cases of postoperative infection were identified in all the patients receiving operation (11.93%),3 cases in gentamicin group and 10 in control group.The incidence of postoperative infection was significantly different between the two groups (X~2= 5.3342,P=0.0209).Eight cases had positive bacterial culture.Of the microbiological isolates,2 were gram-positive bacteria, 5 gram-negative bacteria and 1 Candida albicans.Conclusions The most common pathogen causing postoperative infection after transurethral ureteroscopic lithotripsy is gram-negative bacteria.The use of gentamicin solution for washing in the operation can reduce the incidence of postoperative infection.

Objective To study the change of the hyaluronic acid (HA),laminin (LN) and col- lagen type IV (C_(?)) within the renal grafts and in serum during acute rejection and to investigate their relationship.Methods Male Wistar and Sprague-Dawley rats were used as donors and recipients,re- spectively.Rat orthotopic kidney transplantation was performed according to a modification of the method decribed by Biota.Experimental rats were randomly divided into 4 groups,homotransplanta- tion rats treated with cyclosporine,isotransplantation,pseudooperation and controls.Animals were subsequently killed at defined time points for determination of the extracellular matrix (ECM) parame- ters (HA,LN and C_(?)) within the graft and in serum by radioimmunoassay.Results Significant increases in HA,LN and C_(?) levels within the renal grafts were found in the rejection group as compared with the non-rejection groups.Serum levels of HA,LN and C_(?) were also significantly elevated in the rejection group at diagnosis of rejection.Serum HA,LN and C_(?) levels were correla- ted with those within the renal grafts.Histologic examination revealed that 4 cases developed acute re- jection in homotransplantation rats treaded with cyclosporine,17 cases in controls.HA,LN and C_(?) levels within the renal grafts were correlated with acute rejection Banff scores.There was correlation between serum levels of HA,LN and C_(?) and acute rejection Banff scores (P＜0.01).Conclusion HA,LN and C_(?) play an important role in the pathogenesis of acut allograft rejection.In addition, serum levels of HA,LN and C_(?) may be a sensitive marker of acute rejection in the postoperative period of renal transplantation.

Objective To evaluate left ventricular systolic synchrony in patients with Ⅲ grade atrio-ventricular block(Ⅲ grade AVB) after pacemaker implantation by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography. Methods Methods Twelve patients with Ⅲ grade AVB implanted by VVI pacemaker, seven patients with Ⅲ grade AVB implanted by DDD pacemaker, twenty subjects with normal LV function were examined by Philips iE33 with a X3-1 probe. Results The minimal excursion in patients with Ⅲ grade AVB implanted by VVI pacemaker and DDD pacemaker was less than that in subjects with normal LV function (P <0.05) ,and two "bull eyes" displayed that some regional systolic timing delayed or ahead, but also some regional systolic excursion hypokinesis or dykinesis. Parameter index [including Tmsv 16-SD, Tmsv 12-SD, Tmsv 6-SD, Tmsv 16-Dif, Tmsv 12-Dif, Tmsv 6-Dif, Tmsv 16-SD (%), Tmsv 12-SD (%), Tmsv 6-SD (%), Tmsv 16-Dif (%), Tmsv 12-Dif (%), Tmsv 6-Dif(%)] of 17 segment time to minimal systolic volume in patients with Ⅲ grade AVB implanted by VVI pacemaker and DDD pacemaker was more than that in subjects with normal LV function (all P < 0.05). Conclusions Real-time three-dimensional echocardiography can rapidly evaluate left ventricular systolic synchrony in patients with Ⅲ grade AVB implanted by DDD pacemaker and VVI pacemaker.

Objective To explore the feasibility of “double low ”(low tube voltage and low contrast agent concentration)imaging technology of dual-source computed tomography (DSCT)in coronary angiography for low-weight patients.Methods 60 patients (BMI≤25 kg/m2 )who underwent coronary CT angiography (CCTA)on DSCT scanner were divided randomly into 2 groups:group A was “double low”group (n = 30,tube voltage = 80 kVp,using sinogram affirmed iterative reconstruction technology and 270 mg I/mL concentration of contrast agent);Group B was conventional group (n=30,tube voltage=120 kVp,using filtered back projection technology and 350 mg I/mL concentration of contrast agent).Adaptive cardiosequence prospective ECG-gated technology (CorAdSeq)was applied in both the groups,The collecting phase was 65%-75% RR interval (when heart rate<70 beats per mi-nute)or 40%-50% RR interval (when heart rate≥70 beats per minute).Subjective and objective methods were applied to evaluate the image quality.The image quality and.radiation dose were compared between the “double low”group and the conventional group by using SPSS 1 9.0 software.The differences between measurement data were analyzed by using independent samples t-test.Results The effective dose with size specific dose estimates (EDssde)of group A(1.22±0.31)mGy/cm was significantly lower than that of group B (3.44±0.80)mGy/cm with P <0.001.Contrast-noise ratio,signal-noise ratio and CT value of group A were signifi-cantly higher than those of group B (all P <0.05 ).Conclusion Compared with conventional DSCT coronary angiography,“double low”DSCT coronary scanning proposal for low-weight patients can significantly reduce the radiation dose and the amount of contrast agent,and the image quality can meet the needs of clinical diagnosis.
