Objective To explore the pathologic changes of the opening blood-brain barrier(BBB) in the early stages of 50% TBSA scalded rabbits.Methods Ten male rabbits inflicted with 50% TBSA of Ⅲ degree were randomized into five groups: control,postburn 1 h,2 h,3 h,4 h.Brain tissues were isolated at different phases and observed in gross,by microscope and transmission electron microscope.Results Endothelial cells swelled and BBB began to open in 2 h after scald.The tight junction of endothelial cells became vague and the opening of BBB increased as lesion time prolonged.Conclusion As the lesion time prolonged,the injury of endothelial cells became more serious and the opening of BBB progressed,which resulted in the formation of brain edema.

To investigate the features of CT, ultrasonography and fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) of morning glory syndrome, the data on CT, A/B-scan ultrasonography and fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) were retrospectively analyzed in 8 cases of morning glory syndrome (MGS). Among those cases, 6 were examined with CT, 4 with FFA and 8 with A/B-scan ultrasonography. Results showed that the characteristics of CT, A/B-scan ultrasonography and FFA in MGS included: (1) The attachment spot of optic nerve became thin and vitreous body protruded to the posterior wall of eyeball with a spherical shape on CT image; (2) in the early period of FFA, hypofluorescence appeared on the optic, the abnormal arteriae and veins around the optic papilla were displayed clearly and in the late period, optic disc was stained with fluorescein; (3) on B-scan ultrasonogram, the vitreous cavity extended to the posterior pole and optic papilla, and projected to the basal part of muscle cones and thus the posterior part of vitreous cavity looked like an upside-down bottleneck. Sometimes the echogenic band of retinal detachment could also be seen. On A-scan ultrasonogram, both vitreous cavity and bottleneck showed no ultrasonic echoes and presented a base line without any evident wave crest. It is concluded that CT, A /B-scan ultrasonography and FFA could show the imageological features of MGS from different aspects, which helps clinicians to differentiate it from other diseases such as optic disc coloboma. CT and A /B-scan ultrasonography, in particular, are considered to be reliable imageological methods for the accurate diagnosis of MGS and are superior to the traditional techniques.

In recent years, there is increasing evidence that the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) may involve the more generation of reactive oxygen species, and investigations on patients have shown that PD is under a status of oxidative stress. The defense against the toxic effects of reactive oxygen species is an essential task within the brain. An important component of the cellular detoxification of reactive oxygen species is the antioxidant glutathione. Consequently, it seems reasonable to propose that increase of brain concentrations of glutathione including glutathione analogs or precursors could be very effective in diminishing the cumulative effects of oxidative damage, and have been investigated as potential therapeutic targets in the treatment and prevention of PD or other neurodegenerative disease.

Objective Discussing the rationality of psychological intervening therapy in the treatment of early breast neoplasm. Methods By summarizing and reviewing 84 patients suffering from the early breast cancer between January of 2003 and December of 2005, we procured some information of their clinical manifes-tations, clinical therapy and statistic results of psychological assessment. Results By intervening the psycho-logical therapy, the patients' self-efficiency and living quality can be bettered. Conclusion Patients with early breast neoplasm need to have a comprehensive treatment with general or local therapy and individual psychologi-cal intervention. Nevertheless, it is rather practical to enhance the general level of prevention and therapy of breast neoplasm through the research of psychological problems after the operation.

Many countries have developed standard strategy under the tendency of the economic globalization.TCM international standardization faces more and more competitions.This article analyzes the competitors and competitive status of TCM international standardization by the research methods of competitive intelligence,competitor analysis and SWOT analysis,and puts forward corresponding strategic measures in details.

Objective To investigate the role of temporary placement of fully covered self-expandable metal stent (cSEMS) for treatment of uncontrolled bleeding after endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST).Methods From January 2000 to present,a total of 3460 cases of EST were performed,and bleeding after the procedure was complicated in 29 (0.84％) of them,in which 4 could not to be stopped by conventional managements.Covered SEMSs were placed across the major papilla in these 4 patients.Results The stents were successfully placed and hemostasis was achieved in all patients.The stent was removed in 1 patient 1 week later,and spontaneous stent dislodgment occurred in 1 patient within 4 weeks.The other 2 patients rejected to remove the stents,and the patency maintained for more than 6 and 12 months respectively.No complication was observed in procedures of placing and removing stents.Conclusion Covered SEMS placement is a safe,effective and simple method for patients with uncontrolled bleeding after EST.

The two hybridoma cell lines secreting antikeratin monoclonal antibodies (McAb)were obtained from fusion between NS_1 myelema cells and spleen cells of BALB/cmice immunized with keratin prepared from human callus.The two cell lines(AF_2and AF_5)have a chromosome number of 97 and 96 respectively.By immunodiffusion,both AF_2 and AF_5 McAb belong to mouse IgG_1 subclass.They have been successivelypassaged for over six months in vitro,and can grow well in the peritoneal fluid ofBALB/c mice,both produce high titer of specific antibodies. To determine their specificity with keratin of epithelia,AF_2 and AF_2 McAbwere used to stain various human normal and neoplastic tissue sections by the ABC(Avidin-Biotin peroxidase complex)immunohistochemical techniques.The results showthat AF_2 and AF_5 McAb can stain a series of normal epithelial tissues(in epidermis,positive for cells above the basal layer)and epithelial tumor tissues.No staining wereobserved in nonepithelial normal and tumor tissues.These results suggest that the twoMcAb are quite specific for a definite number of cytokeratins and promise to be use-ful in the differential diagnosis of tumors.

Advanced hospitals and high-level hospitals are different from grass-root hospitals,since they not only treat difficult diseases but also have the obligation of scientific studies and teaching.Grass-root hospitals mainly focus on treating common diseases,and only conduct a small amount of teaching,thus resulting in the difference between grass-root hospitals and large-scale hospitals in the aspect of purchasing medical equipment.Because the money for grass-root hospitals may only be used as designated and some even comes from loan or collecting,we have to pinch pennies and make the best use of everything so as to recover the cost rapidly and bring the equipment into full play.
