[Objective ] To evaluate the curative effect of urinary retention caused by hyperplasia of prostate gland after treatment of electric acupuncture to Ciliao and Zhongliao acupoints combined with ultrashort wave therapy.[Methods] 35 patients were treated by electric acupuncture to Ciliao and Zhongliao acupoints cooperating with ultrashort wave therapy.Residual urine volumn(RUV),frequency of urinary retention,the therapeutic effect and follow-up were recorded and statistically analyzed.[Results] 29 patients were able to urinate after the therapy,except for 6 patients who were still in urinary retention condition.Effective rate were up to 82.8%.[Conclusion] It proved that the less the frequency was,the better the clinical effect would be.However,no matter how frequent the retention was,our combination therapy still worked,and both effects of the near future and long-term were proved to be fine.Special therapeutic action from Shu acupoint,electric acupuncture's electric current effect,and physical therapy of ultrashort wave contributed to the outcome.

Objective To investigate whether hydrogen can regulate the expressions of inflammatory factors by ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced human HaCaT keratinocytes through the autophagy pathway.Methods Cultured HaCaT keratinocytes were divided into several groups:blank control group receiving no treatment,hydrogen group cultured in hydrogen-rich medium,three UVB groups irradiated with UVB at 1,10,50 mJ/cm2 respectively,three UVB + hydrogen groups irradiated with UVB at 1,10,50 mJ/cm2 respectively followed by culture in hydrogen-rich medium,UVB + 3MA group pretreated with the autophagy inhibitor 3MA for 1 hour followed by UVB radiation at 50 mJ/cm2,UVB + rapamycin group pretreated with the autophagy activator rapamycin for 1 hour followed by UVB radiation at 50 mJ/cm2,UVB + 3MA +hydrogen group pretreated with 3MA for 1 hour followed by UVB radiation at 50 mJ/cm2 and culture in hydrogen-rich medium,UVB + rapamycin + hydrogen group pretreated with rapamycin for 1 hour followed by UVB radiation at 50 mJ/cm2 and culture in hydrogen-rich medium.After additional culture with or without hydrogen for 12 hours,methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was performed to evaluate cellular proliferative activity,Western-blot analysis to measure the expressions of autophagy-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) and Beclin 1,and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to measure the supernatant levels of inflammatory factors including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α,interleukin (IL)-1β,IL-6 and high mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1),and a test kit was used to determine the level of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH).Results Compared with the blank control group,the 10-and 50-mJ/cm2 UVB groups showed significantly increased release of LDH,expressions of LC3 and Beclin1 and supernatant levels of TNF-α,IL-1 β,IL-6 and HMGB 1,but decreased cellular proliferative activity (all P ＜ 0.05).Hydrogen significantly attenuated the release of LDH,down-regulated the supernatant levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6 and HMGB1,but up-regulated cellular proliferative activity as well as LC3 and Beclin1 expressions in the 10-and 50-mJ/cm2 UVB + hydrogen groups compared with the 10-and 50-mJ/cm2 UVB groups respectively (all P ＜ 0.05).In addition,the levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,II-6 and HMGB1 were significantly higher in the 50-mJ/cm2 UVB + 3MA group than in the 50-mJ/cm2 UVB group,and higher in the 50-mJ/cm2 UVB + 3MA + hydrogen group than in the 50-mJ/cm2 UVB + hydrogen group,but lower in the 50-mJ/cm2 UVB + rapamycin group than in the 50-mJ/cm2 UVB group (all P＜ 0.05).Conclusion UVB radiation can increase the expressions ofautophagy-associated proteins,and hydrogen-rich medium can down-regulate the expressions of inflammatory factors by UVB-induced HaCaT cells through the autophagy pathway.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of hydrogen-rich saline on allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) in mice and to explore its underlying mechanisms.Methods Forty mice were equally divided into 4 groups:control group,control treatment group,ACD group and ACD treatment group.ACD was induced by repetitive topical application of dinitrofluorobene (DNFB) to the left ear of mice on day 1,2 and 5.Hydrogen-rich saline was intraperitoneally given to the mice in the ACD treatment group at a dose of 5 ml/kg per day from day 1 to 5.On day 6,the mice were sacrificed,ear tissue was removed from them and subjected to measurement of thickness and weight,detection of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α,interleukin (IL)-6,IL-17 and interferon (IFN)-γ expression by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay,as well as numeration of inflammatory cells in lesions after hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining.Data were processed by SPSS 18.0 software,and statistical analysis was carried out by one-way analysis of variance and least significant difference (LSD) procedure.Results Compared with the control group,the ACD group showed a significant increase in lesion score (7.33 ± 1.53 vs.0,P ＜ 0.05),differences in the thickness ((0.73 ± 0.15) mm vs.(0.13 ± 0.05) mm,P ＜ 0.05) and swelling degree (expressed as tissue weight:(18.67 ± 3.05) mg vs.(3.33 ± 1.52) mg,P ＜ 0.05) between the left and right ear,expressions of TNF-α ((1475.52 ± 233.81) pg/mg vs.(239.01 ± 52.39) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05),IL-6 ((184.65 ± 78.39) pg/mg vs.(42.28 ± 17.64) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05),IL-17 ((628.56 ± 201.44) pg/mg vs.(127.58 ± 50.28) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05) and IFN-γ ((197.72 ± 37.81) pg/mg vs.(24.57 ± 8.31) pg/mg,P ＜ 0.05),and the number of inflammatory cells per square millimetre in the left ear tissue (752.00 ± 166.06 vs.127.33 ± 77.18,P ＜ 0.05).However,hydrogen-rich saline treatment induced a statistical decrease in all of these parameters in the ACD treatment group compared with the ACD group,including lesion score (3.33 ± 0.58,P ＜ 0.05),difference in thickness ((0.46 ± 0.11) mm,P ＜ 0.05) and swelling degree ((11.00 ± 2.64) mg,P ＜ 0.05),expressions of TNF-α ((817.72 ± 101.13) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05),IL-6 ((95.86 ± 36.65) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05),IL-17 ((373.38 ± 126.74) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05),IFN-γ ((63.31± 17.38) pg/mg,P ＜ 0.05) and the number of inflammatory cells per square millimetre (384.00 ± 97.35,P ＜0.05).Conclusion Hydrogen may inhibit the release of inflammatory factors in ACD.

Objective To evaluate the value of retrospective ECG-gated 256 slices spiral CT technique in the scanning of inferior phrenic artery (IPA).Methods 80 patients with underdone abdominal CTA were divided randomly into two groups (40 patients each)as regular abdominal CTA scanning group and retrospective ECG-gated technique group.And further analysis was done to evaluate the display of IPA branches and the image quality.Results 80 patients were all scanned successfully.40 cases LIPA and 40 cases RIPA were showed in the regular group.80 cases showed 1st level branches of IPA,73 cases with 2nd level,59 cases with 3rd and 43 ca-ses showing 4th level.40 cases LIPA and 40 cases RIPA were showed in ECG-gated group.And the numbers of IPA branches levels were 80,79,71,65,respectively.There is no significant difference in the ability of showing the1st level IPA or their image quality between those two groups (P >0.05);and there is a statistical significance in the ability of showing other levels of IPA and their im-age quality.Conclusion It is feasible that we use retrospective ECG-gated 256 slices spiral CT scanning technique to show the IPA. And it could improve the ability of showing the IPA branches as well as the image quality.

Objective　To investigate the protective effects of alcoholic extracts of Ganoderma lucidum (GL) and its combination with Rad ix Salviae Miltiorrhizae (RSM), Radix Bupleuri (RB), and Fructus Schisandrae Chi nensis (FSC) respectively on experimental hepatic injuries. Methods　Hepatic injury models were established with the injections of carbon tetrac hloride (CCl4) or D-galactosamine(D-GlaN) into mouse, and then the therapeut ic agents at same dose were given respectively. The activity of cholinesterase(C hE) and alaline aminotransferase(ALT) in the serum and hepatic homogenate, the c ontents of malonyl dialdehyde (MDA), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and reduced glut athione (GSH) in hepatic homogenate from all mouse were determined. The morpholo gic changes of the livers were also observed with VG staining. Results 　In CCl4 treated mice, serum ALT activity was increased markedly wh ile ChE acti vity decreased significantly. GL and GL+RB, GL +FSC could relieve these changes ; GL combined with all other agents could inhibit the GSH accumulation, but only GL+FSC had a suppressive effect on MDA increase and made it return to normal. For D-GlaN treated mice, all agent groups had little effect on the activity of ChE; Only GL dramatically reduced the increased activity of ALT; GL +RSM could e liminate the GSH, but not significant; GL and all GL combinations could decrease the increased MDA (P<0.01). Pathological observation showed that hepatocyte damage in GL group and GL+FSC group incline d to recover. Conclusion　The results indicate that Ganoderma lucidum is an effective agent against hepatic injuries, especially combined wi th F ructus Schisandrae Chinensis, which may be associated with its anti-hepatocyte oxidation.
