Objective: To study the roles of nuclear factor (NF-kB) and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) in cerebral ischemic preconditioning induced brain ischemic tolerance. Methods: A total of 100 clean rats were randomly allocated into 4 groups: control, ischemic, preconditioning, and ischemic preconditioning groups. Both focal and ischemic preconditioning models were induced. The neuroethological score, infarct volume ratio and expression of NF-kB and ICAM-1 in the ischemic region at the corresponding time points were observed. Results: Circled digit one The neurological deficit score in the ischemic group was higher than that in the ischemic preconditioning group. The cerebral infarction volume ratio was higher than that in the ischemic preconditioning group (28.6 ± 3.2% vs. 16.2 ± 3.8%, t = 2.668 [P < 0.05]), and there were significant differences (P < 0.05). Circled digit two The number of NF-KB positive cells in the ischemic preconditioning group were lower than those in the ischemic group at the same time points, but they were higher than those in the preconditioning group, and there were significant differences (P < 0.05). The peak time of the number of NF-KB positive cells in the ischemic preconditioning group was delayed for 48 hours. Circled digit three The numbers of ICAM-1 positive cells in the ischemic preconditioning group were less than those in the ischemic group at the same time points, but they were higher than those in the preconditioning group, and there were significant differences (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Ischemic preconditioning decreases the expression of NF-KB and ICAM-1 after ischemia. The inhibition of inflammatory reaction may be one of the mechanisms of the ischemic tolerance induced by ischemic preconditioning.

Hybrid procedure is an method that combines surgery and intervenfional catheterization. As collaboration between surgeon and interventionalist has improved, the procedures for complex congenital heart disease is progressing and developing remarkably. Combining echocardiography monitoring in hybrid surgical procedure of complex congenital heart disease not only reduces side effect of extracorporeal circulation and operation time, but also retrieves blind spot of interventional catheterization for infant and low weight baby. Currently it is applied in the field of atrial septal defect, muscular ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis and post-operation residual shunts or stenosis.

Objective: To study the relationship between mental health and achievement motivation of teachers.Methods: 322 high school teachers completed SCL-90 and Achievement Motivation Scale.Results: The percent of high-score teachers with at least one SCL-90 subscale scored more than 3 is more than 5%.There is obvious correlation between the score of SCL-90 and the AMS's.Conclusion: The high level of achievement-seeking or the high level of failure-avoiding is harmful to the mental health of teachers.

Objective:To establish a human monocyte cell line U937 stably expressing CD200.Methods:The eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3-CD200 containing human CD200 cDNA and vector pcDNA3 were transferred into human monocyte U937 cell line by electrotransfer.These two cell lines were selected by G418, and the selected cell lines were subcultured. U937 cell line was enclosed as control group.The expression of CD200 mRNA and protein was detected by RT-PCR and flow cytometry.Results:After G418 selection,U937 cell line in control group was died, and the cell lines transferring pcDNA3 and recombined pcDNA3-CD200 were subcultured over 30 generations.The CD200 mRNA expression in pcDNA3-CD200 group was confirmed with RT-PCR.The CD200 expression in U937-pcDNA3-CD200,U937-pcDNA3 and U937 were 77.20%,3.20% and 2.10%,compared with other two groups (F=133 996.40,P0.05).Conclusion:Our study provides foundation for mechanism of action for CD200 in future.The human monocyte series U937 cell line that expresses CD200 protein stably is established successfully by gene transfection method.

Objective To compare extramedullary fixation (EF), intramedullary fixation (IF) and dipolar femoral replacement(DFR) in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures in the elderly patients. Methods From July 1999 to December 2008, 172 old patients with intertrochanteric fractures were treated by either EF, or IF or DFR. The operative procedures, complications and therapeutic effects were compared between the 3 methods. Results The patients included in the present study were followed up for 8 to 36 months (average, 19. 6 months). There were significant differences ( P<0. 05) in incision length, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, functional recovery and complications between the 3 methods. IF had the shortest incision length and the least intraoperative blood loss. DFR had less blood loss than EF. IF had the least operation time, followed by DFR. DFR had the best functional recovery one year postoperatively. IF had shorter rehabilitation and healing time than EF. Conclusions EF is the first choice for intertrochanteric fractures of A 1.1, A 1.2, A 1.3 and A2. 1. IF is more appropriate for the aged and unhealthy patients with intertrochanteric fractures of A1. 1, A1. 2, A1. 3, A2. 1, A2. 2, A3. 1 and A3.2. DFR is fit for the elderly patients with severe comminuted fractures and osteoporosis.

AIM: To investigate the effects of atorvastatin calcium on vascular endothelial cells and circulating endothelial progenitor cells (CEPCs) in hypertensive rats. METHODS: Renal hypertension rat model was constructed with two-kidney-one-clip technique. Twenty-four male SD rats were randomized into hypertension group, statins group and sham-operated group (n=8 each). On the 4th week, the animals in statins group were injected with 20 mg·kg~(-1)·d~(-1) atorvastatin calcium intra-abdominally for 8 weeks. Blood pressure and blood lipid were measured at 4th and 12th week post-operation. On the 12th week, scanning electron microscopy was used to observe the damage of aortic endothelial cells. The circulatory endothelial cell count, CEPCs count, CEPCs proliferation ability, CEPCs adhesion ability and CEPCs apoptosis were also measured. RESULTS: The injury of endothelial cells in statins group was observed, milder than that in hypertension group, but worsen than that in sham-operated group. The numbers of circulatory endothelial cells in hypertension group, statin treatment group and sham-operated group were 5.9×10~6, 3.9×10~6 and 2.0×10~6 respectively, and the CEPCs apoptosis rate was 22.1%±2.1%, 13.4%±1.6 %and 7.4%±1.3%, respectively. Meanwhile, the numbers of CEPCs were 21.63±2.33, 40.38±6.00 and 65.38±2.97, respectively, the proliferative abilities of CEPCs were 0.13±0.01, 0.17±0.01 and 0.29±0.03, respectively, and the adhesion of CEPCs was 12.25±2.49, 21.50±2.20 and 28.88±2.85, respectively. CONCLUSION: (1) The severity of vascular endothelial cell injury is related to hypertension states. (2) Atorvastatin calcium has direct protective effects on endothelial cells, possibly through increasing CEPCs count, reducing CEPCs apoptosis and markedly enhancing reparation ability of CEPCs to endothelial cells.
