Objective To investigate the effect of intermedin (IMD) on tubular cells apoptosis induced by renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and its associated mechanism.Methods A total of twenty-four male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups (control group, I/R group, empty plasmid group and IMD group). One week after the removal of right kidney, ultrasound plasmid was used to transfect empty or IMD plasmid into the left kidney. Renal I/R model was made by clasping the left renal artery for 45 minutes. Tubular cell apoptosis was determined by TUNEL. Expression of Bax, Bcl-2, Fas was detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.Activity of caspase-8 and caspase-9 was evaluated with commercially available kits respectively.Protein level of caspase-3 was measured by Western blotting analysis. Results Compared with control group, apoptosis of tubular epithelial cells, expression of Bax and Fas, activities of caspase-8 and caspase-9, as well as protein level of caspase-3 were all significantly increased in I/R group (all P＜0.05). IMD pre-treatment significantly inhibited all these effects (all P＜0.05). There were no differences of above parameters between empty plasmid group and I/R group. Conclusion IMD pre-treatment protects against renal I/R injury by inhibion of tubular epithelial cell apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the drug resistance situation and the epidemiological characteristicin the tuberculoupatientin ordeto provide the reference foeffective prevention and treatmenof T.MethodTotally 2 271 patientwith posi-tive sputum smeapulmonary tuberculosi(TB) in the Jiangbei Branch Hospital of Chongqing Zhongshan Hospital from January 2009 to Decembe2013 were performed the drug resistance detection of 10 kindof anti-Tdrugs(isoniazid ,streptomycin ,rifampi-cin ,ethambutol ,para-aminosailcyliacid ,kanamycin ,pasiniazid ,protionamide ,capreomycin ,and ofloxacin) .ResultOf all 2 271 ca-seof positive sputum culture pulmonary T,the total drug resistance rate and total multi-drug resistance rate were 61 .91% and 26 .29% ,respectively ;the total drug resistance ratein initial treatmenand retreatmenpatientwere 52 .85% and 78 .06% respec-tively ,and the multi-drug resistance ratewere 16 .70% and 43 .38% ,respectively ;the top five in the average drug resistance ratefrom high to low were streptomycin(39 .45% ) ,isoniazid(33 .20% ) ,rifampicin(32 .94% ) ,para-aminosailcyliacid(31 .40% ) and pasiniazid(21 .53% );the anti-Ttreatmenhistory ,gende,age and occupation were significantly associated with the drug resist-ance occurrence (P＜0 .05) .Conclusion The drug resistance situation of the Tpatientin the local areof Chongqing iseriouin the recen5 year.The standardized managemenand treatmenon the Tpatientwith drug resistance should be strengthened .

Objective To study the value of application of histamine provocation test and airway resistance measurement in diagnosis and therapeutic efficacy in preschool children with asthma.Methods Histamine provocation test and airway resistance measurement by the Italian MEFAR MB3 provocating instrument and Germen Microloop lung function instrument for 42 cases who were diagnosed as asthmatic(27 patients with bronchial asthma and 15 cases of cough variant asthma)and 21 healthy cases was compared,and the differences between the 2 groups and the value of therapeutic efficacy were analyzed.Results The resistance ratio of respiratory tract of control group was(97.11?9.09)%,which in asthma and cough variant asthma group was(229.37?57.48)% and(248.80?76.80)%.There was significant difference between the 3 groups(F=48.466 P

Objective To analyze retrospectively the MR features of MELAS patients,in order to improve the early diagnosis of MELAS.Methods MR data of 1 6 MELAS patients confirmed by clinical diagnose and muscle biopsy were retrospectively analyzed. MR features of plain scan(n=1 6),ASL(n=3),MRA(n=1 5),DWI(n=14)and MRS(n=3)were analyzed.Results MRI data demonstrated brain lesions mainly distributed in posterior cerebral hemisphere extending to subcortical area,which was not consistent with the vascular supply territories.The lesions were observed as low signal on Spin-echo sequence of T1 WI,while high signal on T2 WI, FLAIR and DWI.The focal lesions showed increasing Lac peak on MRS.Fifteen of 16 patients underwent MRA and one showed increased arterial branches in lesion zones.Three patients had ASL scanning demonstrating high irrigation in lesion zones which would wander once relapsed.Meanwhile,old lesions showed encephalatrophy and cerebromalacia.All patients’muscle biopsy pathology showed ragged red muscle fibers.Under electron-microscopic,bioblasts were bigger and more than average level and muscle fibers atrophied.Mitochondrial DNA sequence of 3 patients showed mtDNA A3243G transgenation.Conclusion The DWI,MRS and ASL sequences show good ability in MELAS diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the value of theory-practice integrated in the course of medical imaging diagnosis. Methods The teaching method of bone and joint system was adjusted based on theory-practice integration. 212 students of department of medical imaging were divided into group A (95 students, Grade 2009) and group B (117 students, Grade 2010). The traditional teaching method was adopted in group A, and the theory-practice integrated teaching method was adopted in group B. The teaching effect was evaluated by the exam results(theory and experimentation) and ques-tionnaire. SPSS 13.0 software was used and the measurement date were expressed by x±s. Statistical analysis was performed using t test, with the level of test α=0.05. Results The results of theoretical exam (P=0.024),practical exam (P=0.017) and questionnaire of group B was higher than group A (P=0.00). Conclusions LBL、CBL、TBL integrated teaching method is better than traditional teaching method, especially in improving the students' ability of linking up theory with practice, learning initia-tive, teamwork.

As one of the major geriatric syndromes,frailty exerts adverse effects on life expectancy and quality of life of the elderly.Because of its importance,a number of methods and tools have been introduced for the assessment of frailty.Malnutrition,as an independent risk factor,interacts with frailty and is involved in its progression.This article reviews recent studies on frailty and malnutrition.
