Aim To study the effects of HiHi and HiLo on the lipid metabolism in rats through blood lipids and fatty acid oxidation in gastrocnemius of rats. Methods Thirty male SD rats were selected by means of adaptive training, and then divided into 3 groups randomly: living low-training low group (LoLo), living high-training high group (HiHi), and living high-training low group (HiLo). The rats ran on a treadmill 60 min a day at the speed of 35 m/min under normoxic condition or 30 m/min under hypoxic condition (13.6% of ambient FIO_2), 6 days a week for 4 weeks. The samples from blood and gastrocnemius were removed 24 hours after the last training by the end of 4-week experiment. TC, TG, HDL and LDL were tested with a full-automatic biochemical analyzer. LPL, leptin and AD were measured using ELISA. Real-time quantitative PCR was adopted to test the expression of PPARa and CPT-1 mRNA in rats' gastrocnemius. Results Compared to the LoLo, TC and TG decreased significantly (P0.05) and LPL and AD increased significantly (P<0.01) in HiHi.' PPARa mRNA and CPT-1 mRNA expressions in gastrocnemius were significantly higher in HiHi(P<0.05) than in LoLo, and significant descent of HDL(P<0.05) and CPT-1 mRNA expression(P<0.01) revealed in HiLo, as compared to the LoLo. Compared to the HiLo, HDL(P<0.05), and LPL, AD and CPT-1 mRNA expression(P<0.01) enhanced in HiHi. Conclusion (l) HiHi was more superior in regulation of blood lipids than LoLo due to increasing of LPL, and could facilitate fatty acid oxidation because of enhancement of CPT-1 mRNA, AD and PPARa mRNA. (2) Comparing to the normoxic training, HiLo had no beneficial effect on the blood lipid metabolism and decreased the fatty acid oxidation in gastrocnemius.(3 )HiHi was more superior in the effeet of HDL thah HiLo due to increasing of LPL, and could facilitate fatty acid oxidation because of enhancement of AD and CPT-1 mRNA.

Objective To understand the current situation of occupational exposure and occupational safety attitudes among nursing students in Kunming Medical University, and to find effective interventions to improve nurses' occupational safety,and to reduce occupational exposure.Methods 854 students in Kunming Medical University were investigated by a questionnaire survey, including Demographic characteristics, Occupational exposure conditions, Occupational safety attitude and Gathers, quit intention . The correlations between occupational safety attitudes and occupational exposure were analyzed with Simple Linear Correlation.Results There were 94.30%female respondents,and only 5.70%male respondents.The average age of respondents was 22.52±2.90 years. The Simple Linear Correlation analysis showed that correlation between Negative attitude and occupational exposure was positive correlated, the occupational exposure and Support from managers, and Optimistic were negative correlation ( <0.05) .Conclusions Occupational safety and attitude are related to occupational exposure. Nursing students should apply standardized operation to improve the professional quality and ability. Schools should strengthen the education of occupational protection for nursing students. Hospital management should regularly organize nurses to study occupational exposure protection knowledge,give full affirmation of the nurse's achievements in the work, and offer certain reward appropriately.

Objective To analyze the clinical presentation of functional dyspepsia in Chinese ado lescents.Methods A stratified,randomized study by cluster sampling was employed,which recruited 51 956 students from high and primary schools in six provinces and two cities.All students were requested to fill in a questionnaire.Functional dyspepsia was diagnosed according to Rome Ⅱ criteria.Results Among 51 956 students,10 174 were diagnosed as functional dyspepsia(accounted for 19.58%).Heart burn,hiccup and air swallowing to terminate hiccup were major symptoms of functional dyspepsia.The upper abdominal distention,epigastric pain,anorexia and insomnia were common in boys than girls with no significance(P＞0.05).The belching,early satiety,fatigue and anxiety were significantly higher in girls than boys.Conclusions Functional dyspepsia is a common disorder among the adolescents.Educa-tion and psychotherapy are important in the treatment of students with functional dyspepsia.

Objective To observe the effect of liver disease special-purpose enteral nutrition preparation on protein metabolism and liver function in children with liver injury.Methods Sixty cases of severe ill with liver injury in hospital,with mean age of (7.8?6.3) years old.All patients were randomly divided into experimental group (n=30) and control group(n=30).The experimental group was treated by adding the liver disease special-purpose enteral nutrition preparation homogenized diet and control group was treated by adding entire protein entire nutrition type enteral nutrition preparation.All patients in both 2 groups were nasally fed with intestinal nutrition,which contained 418-628 kJ/(kg?d).One day before nutritional support and 14 days after nutritional support,the liver function,total serum protein,albumin,hemoglobin were recorded.SPSS 11.5 software was used to analyze the data.Results The baseline indicators were similar before nutritional supports.Fourteen days after nutritional support,alanine aminotransferase(ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST) were all significantly lower in experimental group than in control group(Pa

Objective To investigate water fluoride content and the current status of water-improving project in Jining,Shandong Province in 2005.Methods Water fluoride content and the status of water-lmprovlng project were havestigated in Bencheng Ditrict,Liangshan and Jiaxiang Couties of Jining City.The fluoride content in drinking warer was assessed by F-ion selective electrode.Results Water fluoride contents of 671 fluorosis villages were determined.One hundred and seventy villages had water fluoride content less than or equal to 1.00 mg/L(accounting for 25.34%)and 501 villages water fluoride content higher that 1.00 mg/L(accounting for 74.66%),with the highest being 11.33 mg/L.Four hundred and ninty.seven projects were surveyed,in which 161 Projects were discarded (accounting for 32.39%),334 projeets worked well(accounting for 67.20%),and 2 pmjects worked fitfully(accounting 0.40%).Two hundreds and eighty-one projects had water fluoride content≤1.00 ms/L and 55 projects had water fluofide cantent>1.00 mg/L(aceounting for 26.82%),with the highest being 4.28 ms/L.Conclusions The situation of endemic fluorosis control is still serious in Jining City.Countermeasures for endemic fluorosis must be carried out as sppm as possible and surveillance of water-improving and defluoridation projects must be strevIsthend.

OBJECTIVETo investigate radiation protection and possible mechanisms of low intensity microwave on gamma-ray exposed mice.

METHODS96 healthy Kunming mice were randomly divided into the following four groups: normal control, microwave (120 microW/cm(2), 900 MHz), gamma-ray irradiation (5 Gy), combined exposure of microwave and gamma-ray (120 microW/cm(2) + 5 Gy). The microwave group and combined group were exposed to 120 microW/cm(2) microwave firstly, 1 h/d, for 14 days. Then the ionization and combined group were exposed to 5 Gy (60)Co gamma-ray irradiation on the 15th day. Animals were sacrificed on the third, 6th, 9th and 12th day after irradiation. The sternum and spleen paraffin section were produced, and the histological changes were observed. Apoptosis rate of mice splenic cells in each group was examined by flow cytometry, and serum concentration of antioxidant and lipid peroxide was detected at the same time.

RESULTSBone marrow was obviously injured either by radiation or microwave exposure, characterized by undergoing four-phase lesions, namely apoptosis-necrosis, void, regeneration and recovery phase. Compared with the gamma-ray group, the pathological changes in combined group were slighter and the recovery was quicker. The pathological injuries of spleen were similar to that of bone marrow. Injuries in the combined group were slighter than gamma-ray group. It showed that apoptosis rate of splenic cells in combined group was significantly lower on the 6th and 9th day after gamma-ray radiation (23.02% +/- 15.18%, 25.37% +/- 11.62% respectively) from FCM results. Assays of oxidative damages suggested that serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) level in combined group increased while lipid peroxide level decreased significantly (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONLow intensity microwave may exert protection effects on injuries induced by ionizing radiation. The underlying mechanisms might be related with suppression on the hematopoietic cells apoptosis induced by gamma-ray radiation, inhibition of oxidative damages, and thus enhanced reconstruction of the hematopoietic system.
