Objectiye To study the mechanism by which transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) affects cognitive dysfunction in vascular dementia (VD). Methods Thirty-six male Wistar rats were randomly divided into a control group, a VD group, a low frequency rTMS group and a high frequency rTMS group. Two-vessel occlusion was employed to induce VD models. Low frequency rTMS group rats were given 0.5 Hz rTMS for six weeks. High frequency rTMS group rats were given 5 Hz rTMS for six weeks. Morris' water maze test was used to measure their spatial learning ability and memory. The ultrastructures of the synapses in the four groups were detected with transmission electron microscopy. The expression of synaptophysin (SYN), brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and Nmethyl-D-aspartate receptor 1 ( NMDAR1 ) mRNA and protein in the hippocampus were determined by real-time PCR and Western blotting. Results The behavior and morphology of the rats treated with rTMS improved. The average expression of SYN, BDNF and NMDAR1 mRNA and protein in the low frequency rTMS group and the high frequency rTMS group were significantly higher than in the VD group. Conclusion rTMS can provide a rehabilitative effect for VD. The mechanism might be associated with enhancing the expression of SYN, BDNF and NMDAR1 in the hippocampus.

OBJECTIVETo observe the regulative effect of opuntia powder on blood lipids in wistar rats and to explore its mechanism.
METHODForty normal rats were divided into four groups:control group (fed with basal feed), opuntia high, middle and low dosage groups (fed with basal feed and opuntia powder of high, middle and low dosage. The influence of opuntia powder on serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), arteriosclerosis index (AI), serum malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) were observed. (2) All of the hyperlipemia wistar rats for experiments were divided into four groups: model control group and other three groups (high, middle, low dosage groups respectively). Three weeks later, samples of blood were taken for survey of levels of TC, TG HDL-C, LDL-C, AI, MDA, SOD.
RESULTAfter opuntia powder treatment,the level of TC in nomal wistar rats was decreased. However, there was no significant difference comparing with control group (P > 0.05). The serum MAD level in the low, middle and high dosage groups were all obviously decreased, which were significantly lower than that in the control group. The SOD activities were all higher than that in the control group. The level of TC, LDL-C, AI (P < 0.01), TG (P < 0.05) were lower significantly in hyperlipemia wistar rats after treated by opuntia powder of high, middle and low dosage. The down-regulation of blood lipids was related with the dosage of opuntia powder.
CONCLUSIONThe opuntia powder may regulate the level of blood lipids in normal and hyperlipemia wistar rats. The effect is more obviously in hyperlipemia rats than that in normal rats.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopy-assisted total proctocolectomy using medial-to-lateral approach.
METHODSBetween October 2005 and January 2012, 21 consecutive patients underwent laparoscopic-assisted total proctocolectomy by medial-to-lateral approach in Department of General Surgery in Nanfang Hospital. The clinical data and follow-up results were reviewed.
RESULTSTwenty cases underwent laparoscopic resection successfully, and 1 case (4.8%) was converted to open surgery because of serious peritoneal cavity adhesion. The mean operative time was (237.1±64.2) min and intraoperative blood loss was (90.0±77.7) ml. The mean time to first flatus was (2.7±0.8) days. The mean postoperative hospital stay was (11.8±5.7) days. Three patients (14.3%) experienced postoperative complications, including anastomotic leakage (n=1), lymphatic leakage (n=1), and anastomotic stricture (n=1). The median follow-up was 22 months (4-60 months). There were two deaths including one patient died of progressive disease 5 months after surgery and the other died of multiple organ failure.
CONCLUSIONSThe advantages of laparoscopy-assisted total proctocolectomy using medial-to-lateral approach include simplified surgical procedure, clearly revealed surgical plane, and shortened operative time. This procedure is safe and feasible in the experienced department of laparoscopic colorectal surgery.

A 10-day-old male infant presented with skin erythema and blisters for 6 days. Skin examination showed scattered or confluent erythema all over the body, tense blisters of varying sizes on the normal skin or an erythematous base, and some blisters were ulcerated and erosive; bloody bullae and erythematous erosive patches could be seen on the oral mucosa. Histopathological examination revealed subepidermal blisters, and there were some neutrophils and a few eosinophils in the blisters. Direct immunofluorescence assay showed homogeneous linear IgA and granular C3 deposits along the basement membrane zone, without IgG deposits. The diagnosis of neonatal linear IgA bullous dermatosis was confirmed. After comprehensive treatments including nutritional support and anti-infection treatment, skin erythema and blisters subsided, and the mucosal damage was attenuated. The telephone follow-up 16 months after discharge showed that the infant was in good general condition with normal growth and development, and the oral mucosal lesions had subsided and healed, without new skin lesions.

Objective:To compare and study the clinical efficacy of three different phacoemulsification incisions for cataract patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed in 120 patients (198 eyes) with type 2 diabetes cataract who underwent cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation from January 2018 to June 2019 in the First hospital of Hebei Medical University. According to the surgical incision, the patients were divided into three groups: A group (the cornea scleral marginal incision, 40 cases, 72 eyes), B group (the clear corneal incision at the top , 40 cases, 66 eyes), C group (underwent temporal clear corneal incision, 40 cases, 60 eyes). The corneal perception, dry eye symptoms, basic tear secretion test (SIt), tear film rupture time (BUT), corneal fluorescein staining (FL) and complications were compared among the three groups before and after treatment.Results:The corneal perception of B group and C group was lower than that of A group on 1 d, 7 d and 30 d after operation ( P<0.05); The scores of dry eye symptoms in C group were higher than those in A group and B group on 1 d, 7 d and 30 d after operation ( P<0.05), and the scores of dry eye symptoms in B group were higher than those in A group on 1 d and 7 d after operation ( P<0.05); The SIt value of C group was lower than that of A group on 1 d, 7 d and 30 d after operation ( P<0.05), and that of B group was lower than that of A group and group C on 1 d, 7 d and 30 d after operation ( P<0.05); The BUT value of C group was lower than that of A group at 1 d and 7 d after operation ( P<0.05), and the BUT value of B group was lower than that of A group and C group at 1 d, 7 d and 30 d after operation ( P<0.05); The FL value between A group and C group at 1 d, 7 d, 30 d and 90 d after treatment was not significant ( P>0.05). The FL value of B group returned to the level before treatment at 30 d after operation, and the FL value of B group was higher than that of A group and C group at 1 d and 7 d after operation ( P<0.05); There was little difference in the incidence of complications among the three groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The cornea scleral marginal incision can reduce the tear secretion, maintain the stability of tear film, and is more suitable for cataract patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is worthy of further promotion in clinic.
