Objective To explore the characteristic and the rule of flash-visual evoked potentials (F-VEP) of SD rats after optic nerve injury in different grades. Methods By using APS-2000 multifunctional electric physiological instrument, changes in F-VEP were observed in normal optic nerve and injured optic nerve (crushed in 3 grades) in rats. The latency and amplitude of F-VEP wave, were recorded and statistically. Results The F-VEP wave was reliably displayed with characteristic curve. The L5b was(53.67?3.12)ms and A5 was(17.83?5.91)?v. The latency of F-VEP in rats with optic nerve injury in different grades showed a significant prolongation, and the amplitude showed a significant decrease compared with normal rats (P

In observing temperature changes in 100 cases of art ificial joint replacement,we discovered that the temperature curves p resented a “double peak” phenomenon.Accordingly,we analyzed the reasons for th is phenomenon and dealt with them,improving our nursing quality.

Objective To study the effect of the high molecular weight polyethylene on the periprosthetic tissue in diabetic model and investigate the effect of TNF-α in periprosthetic tissue.Methods Induction of experimental diabetes in rabbit with streptozotocin was performed successfully,every rabbit's lower limb was implanted a kirschner wire plug in femur by intereondylar notch.In experimental group,15 mg polyethylene particles,dispersed in 1.5 ml normal saline solution,were injected into one knee joint.The other knee joint was injected 1.5 ml normal saline solution ag control.This procedure was repeated for 2,4,6,8,10,and 12 weeks after the implantation.All animals were killed on the 2nd week after the last injection.Knee joint capsule tissues and periprosthetie tissues were examined by optical microscope.ELISA was used for determing the concentration of TNF-α.Results The results showed that kirschner wire were surrounded by multinueleated foreign-body giant cells and osteoclagt in the experimental group.Synovial membrane proliferation was obvious in the control group.There were no polyethylene particles and multinucleated foreign-body giant cells around plug in the marrpw.New bone wag found,kitschner wire was surrounded by suosteoblast,and normal synovial membrane was appeared.The concentration of TNF-α in experimental group was higher than that in control group.Conclusion Maximal ultra high molecular weight polyethylene and diabetic mellitus can restrain diabetic rabbit pefiprosthetic bone formation and increase the secretion of TNF-α.which may play an important role in the periprosthetic osteolysis.

AIM: To explore the changes of myocardial energy metabolism and adenine nucleotide translocase (ANT) activity in mitochondria in rats exposed to hypoxia. METHODS: Adult male Wistar rats were exposed to simulated high altitude at 5 000 m for control (0 d), 1 d, 5 d, 15 d, 30 d in hypobaric chamber. Myocardial mitochondria were isolated by centrifugation. Mitochondria respiratory function was measured by Clark oxygen electrode. The size of adenine nucleotides pool (ATP, ADP, AMP) in mitochondria were separated and measured by HPLC. ANT activity was measured by [3H]-ADP incorporation. RESULTS: Compared to control, mitochondria state Ⅲ respiratory (ST_3) and RCR decreased and ST_4 increased sharply at 1 d, 5 d and 15 d, ST_3 still lower than that in control at 30 d, while RCR level restored. ATP contents and ANT activity decreased at 1 d and 5 d, then restored to control level at 15 d, then decreased again at 30 d. CONCLUSION: The inhibition of mitochondria respiratory function is the main reason that makes ATP contents decrease during hypoxic exposure. ANT activity and ATP content change cooperatively.

Objective Our aim is to study the clinical manifestation and endocrine disorder of the bulimia nervosa (BN). Methods 2 cases of BN were clinically analysed. Results Most of the patients were anorexia before the disease happened, with many aspects of endocrine disorders. Conclusions BN and amenorrea could result from hypothalamus function disorders. However, the alteration of corticoid,thyroid hormones may be results of emotion stress and body weight loss.

Objective To study the effects of Valsartan on oxidative stress in brain tissue of diabetic rats.Methods Diabetic Wistar rats were induced by streptozotocin(STZ) and were randomly divided into diabetic group and Valsartan treatment group.In Valsartan treatment group,the rarts received Valsartan 40 mg/(kg?d) for 12 weeks by intragastric administration.Then blood glucose and body weight were measured.The cognition ability of rats was assayed with Morris water maze test.The activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD),maleic dialdehyde(MDA) and hydroxy radical(OH-) were detected by chromatometry.Quantitative real-time RT-PCR was performed to detect the expression of NADPH oxidase p47phox mRNA.Results(1) Compared with normal control group,the body weight in diabetic group and Valsartan treatment group decreased significantly(both P

Objective To investigate the change and significance of substance P in plasma and skin tissue of diabetic rats. Methods The substance P in plasma and skin tissue was measured by the radioimmunoassay(RIA) in diabetic rats (n=20) and normal rats (n=20) respectively. Results The substance P in diabetic rats was significantly lower than that in normal group(P

Objective To investigate the distribution range and depth of the apocrine sweat glands of the axillary fossa,in order to supply with anatomic and histopathologic basis in the treatment on axillarv osmidrosis.Methods From December 2008 to ()ctober 2010,2 biopsy samples(with axillary osmidrosis),8 biopsy samples(normal,without axillary osmidrosis),were employed into the axillarv anatomy study. 25 patients with severe axillary osmidrosis were observed both maerographicallv and microscopically by using of operation and histopathological methods.Results Secretory portion of apocrine sweat glands was seen clearly,it was pitchy millet-like granules on axillary osmidrosis corpse,and pink millet-like granules in vivo.Secretory portions distributed most within the armpit hair area,exceeded the edge of armpit hair line,but not surpassed the edge of armpit hair line 1.0 cm.The depth of the apocrine sweat glands located vertically at superficial fat tissues between the dermal reticular 1aver and superficial fascia layers which were dissected away easily.Trimming with scissors under dermaIlayer,the secretory portion of apocrine sweat glands was removed cleanly without harms to reticular laver of dermas.Secretory portions became ducts under reticular layer of dermas.White Drominence-like granules were proved to be the compomers of hair follicle and sebaceous glands through Dathological section.Conclusions In order to treat axillary osmidrosis effectively,the secretary portion should be removed away through cutting off the tissues between the dermal reticular layer and suDerficial fastia layers;the ducts of apocrine sweat glands should be handled with removing hair follicle under the reticular layer of dermas．0peration area should not exceed 1.0 cm off the edge.

Objective To investigate the effect of mild hypothermia on the expression of small ubiquitin-like modifier-specific proteases 3 (SENP3) in the brain tissues during cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in mice.Methods Ninety-six male C57/BL6 mice,aged 10-12 weeks,weighing 22-30 g,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =32 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),group I/R,and mild hypothermia group (group H).Cerebral I/R was produced by occlusion of bilateral common carotid arteries for 15 min followed by reperfusion.The surface cooling was started immediately after reperfusion,and the rectal temperature was maintained at 32-34 ℃ for 3 h.At 6,12,24 and 72 h of reperfusion,8 mice were selected from each group and sacrificed.The hippocampi were removed for examination of the pathological changes (with light microscope) and for determination of cell apoptosis (using TUNEL) and expression of SENP3 (by Western blot).The apoptosis rate was calculated.Results Compared with group S,the apoptosis rate in hippocampal CA1 region was significantly increased,and the expression of SENP3 was significantly up-regulated at each time point of reperfusion in group I/R (P＜0.05).Compared with group I/R,the apoptosis rate in hippocampal CA1 region was significantly decreased,and the expression of SENP3 was significantly down-regulated at each time point of reperfusion (P＜0.05),and the pathological changes were significantly reduced in group H.Conclusion The mechanism by which mild hypothermia reduces cerebral I/R injury is associated with inhibition of SENP3 expression in the brain tissues of mice.
