BACKGROUND: Both animal experiments and clinical practice have confirmed that mild or moderate hypothermia is effective in reducing secondary brain injury, but its effect on homeostasis is not very clear.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of a combined therapy of mild hypothermia and hibernation on the homeostasis of patients with severe brain injury.DESIGN: A randomized controlled study.SETTING: Neurosurgical Institute of Beijing; Neurosurgical Department of the First Clinical Medical College Affiliated to Harbin Medical University;and Neurological Department of the Second Clinical Medical College Affiliated to Harbin Medical University.PARTICIPANTS: The study was conducted at the Department of Neurosurgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, from June to December 2002. Totally 24 patients (aged 35-60 years) with severe cerebral hemorrhage or brain injury were randomly divided into combined therapy group and normothermia group. Their Glasgow Coma Scale scores ranged from 3 to 8. The subjects signed the informed consent.METHODS: Within 10 hours of their injury, patients in hypothermia and hibernation combination group were given half dosage of No. 1 hibernation cocktail (chlorpromazine 25 mg, pethidine hydrochloride 50 mg, and promethazine 25 mg), and were cooled by cooling blankets to make their body temperature dropped to 32-34 ℃ (rectal temperature). Their temperature was kept within this range for 5 days, at 35 ℃ for 24 hours, and then was slowly increased to their normal level. The body temperature of patients in normothermia group was maintained at 37-38 ℃. The mean arterial pressure and heart rate of all patients were measured continuously by HP monitor. On the 3"d and 7th days of hospitalization, intracranial pressure and creatine phosphate kinase were measured via lumbar puncture.Femoral artery puncture was performed to check the partial pressure of arterial O2 and CO2. Platelets count and blood electrolytes K+ and Na+ concentration of each patient were measured, too. On the 7th day Glasgow Outcome Scale scores of each patient and mortality of each group were recorded.activity of creatine phosphokinase, platelets count, blood K+ and Na+ conand CO2 of patients in combined therapy group on the 3rd and 7th days of hospitalization.intracranial pressure, creatine phosphokinase and platelets count: The decreased values of intracranial pressure, creatine phosphokinase and platelet number in combined therapy group were all significantly higher than those in normothermia group [(104.09±54.90), (58.75±25.33) mm H2O; (26.95±19.22), (10.17±7.18) μkat/L; (89.82±46.36)×109/L, (48.83±44.59)×109/L,the mean arterial pressure, blood electrolytes, and partial pressure of artewas significantly lower than that of normothermia group (25.0%, 66.6%,P <0.05).CONCLUSION: This combined therapy of hypothermia and hibernation can effectively decrease intracranial pressure and creatine phosphokinase,but has no significant effects on the mean arterial pressure, blood electrolytes concentration, and partial pressure of arterial O2 and CO2. It has the risk of disturbing the patients' hematopoiesis.

Objective Toinvestigatethecorrelationsofthelevelsofplasmasolublereceptorfor advanced glycation end product (sRAGE )with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS ), grade of white matter lesions,and risk factors for cerebral vascular disease in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods Atotalof120patientswithacutecerebralinfarctionwereenrolledretrospectively. They all underwent head MRI. The plasma sRAGE levels of the acute cerebral infarction group and 120 healthy subjects were detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)and were compared. According to the interquartile range (P25 =540 ng/L,P50 =1030 ng/L,P75 =1400 ng/L ),the plasma sRAGE levels were divided into 4 quartiles (Q1 to Q4). Q1:sRAGE<540 ng/L (n=29),Q2:540 ng/L≤sRAGE≤1030 ng/L (n=31),Q3:1030 ng/L < sRAGE≤1400 ng/L (n =30),and Q4:sRAGE >1400 ng/L (n =30 ). The plasma sRAGE levels in the acute cerebral infarction group and the healthy control group were compared using the Wilcoxon rank sum test. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the correlations of the sRAGE levels with NIHSS scores,grade of cerebral white matter lesions,and cerebrovascular risk factors. Results (1 )The median level of plasma sRAGE was 870 (540.0,1403. 8)ng/L in the acute cerebral infarction group,which was lower than 1032 (727. 5,1721. 5) ng/L in the healthy control group. There was significant difference (P<0. 05). (2)Single factor analysis showed that the smoking rate,NIHSS scores,the types of deep white matter hyperintensity (DWMH),and the estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)among Q1,Q2,Q3 and Q4 quartiles were significant different (all P<0.05). The smoking rate,ratio of patients with high NIHSS score,incidence of severe DWMH and percentage of the patients with normal eGFR in Q1 (n=29)were 62. 1%(n=18), 44. 8%(n=13),55.2%(n=16)and 51. 7%(n=15),respectively,and they had a higher trend than other quartiles. (3)Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the smoking,NIHSS score,eGFR,and severity of DWMH were the influence factors of the levels of plasma sRAGE in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Thereweresignificantdifferences(allP<0.05).Conclusion Theexpressionlevelsofthe plasma sRAGE in patients with acute cerebral infarction group is significantly lower than those in the healthy subjects,and smoking,neurological defect,eGFR,and severity of DWMH are associated the low level of sRAGE. sRAGE may be used as a reference index for predicting the conditions of acute cerebral infarction.

AIM: To investigate the effect of insulin on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) proliferation and to evaluate the intracellular signaling pathways involved. METHODS; VSMCs separated from Sprague - Dawley rats were used in this study. The proliferation of VSMCs induced by insulin was assayed by [~3H ] - thymidin incorporation. The protein expression and activity of p -ERK1/2 were determined by immunblot and [~(γ-32)P]ATP incorporation. RESULTS: Insulin induced cell proliferation in a concentration - dependent manner. The proliferative effect of insulin on VSMCs was inhibited partly by LY294002 (48.8% ) , an inhibitor of PI -3 kinase, and the ERK1/2 inhibitor PD98059 (43.6% ) , respectively. Moreover, phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and activity of ERK1/2 induced by insulin were also inhibited partly by LY294002.CONCLUSION: PI -3 kinase and ERK1/2 are involved in insulin induced VSMCs proliferation.

Objective To observe the effect of stageⅢdiabetic nephropathy(DN)treated by Qizhi Jiangtang capsule and explore its potential mechanism. Methods According to digital table method,the patients who conformed to the diagnostic criteria of stageⅢDN were randomly divided into two groups:an experiment group and a control group. All the patients in the two groups took elution treatment for 2 weeks,and then were treated with western basic therapy. The patients in the experiment group were administered orally with Qizhi Jiangtang capsule(2.5 g once, 3 times a day),while those in the control group treated with valsartan 80 mg,once a day. Urine microalbumin(mALB), mALB/urine creatinine(UCr),β2-microglobulin(β2-MG),α1-microglobulin(α1-MG)were observed in the two groups,endothelin-1(ET-1),nitric oxide(NO),thromboxane B2(TXB2),6-keto prostaglandin F1α(6-keto-PGF1α) were also determined. Serum creatinine(SCr),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),serum cystatin-C(Cys-C),retinol-binding protein(RBP),β2-MG were detected in the blood biochemistry automatic analyzer. These laboratory markers were inspected before treatment and at the 4th,8th and 12th week after treatment. Results Ninety-six patients in the experiment group and 95 patients in the control group were effectively included in the end. Before treatment,there were no statistic significant differences in urine mALB,mALB/UCr,β2-MG,α1-MG and blood ET-1,NO,TXB2, 6-keto-PGF1α between two groups(all P>0.05). Along with the prolongation of treatment,urine mALB,mALB/UCr,β2-MG,α1-MG and ET-1,TXB2 were significantly reduced,while NO,6-keto-PGF1α were significantly raised in the two groups after treatment,and the above changes in the experimental group were more obvious. There were statistic significant differences of mALB,mALB/UCr,β2-MG,α1-MG and TXB2,6-keto-PGF1αbetween two groups at the 12th week after treatment〔mALB(mg/L):36.6±9.2 vs. 78.6±16.5,mALB/UCr(mg/mmol):3.90±1.97 vs. 9.70±2.90,β2-MG(mg/L):0.25±0.10 vs. 0.40±0.12,α1-MG(mg/L):8.40±2.26 vs. 12.50±3.21,TXB2 (ng/L):75.8±18.7 vs. 94.7±21.7,6-keto-PGF1α(ng/L):73.4±15.2 vs. 65.2±11.5,P<0.05 or P<0.01〕. But there were no statistic significant differences of ET-1 and NO between experimental group and control group at the same time-points〔ET-1(ng/L):57.6±6.9 vs. 59.1±6.2,NO(μmol/L):68.9±11.6 vs. 65.4±10.7,both P>0.05〕. In each of the two groups,the comparisons of the levels of SCr,BUN before and after treatment,there was no statistical significant difference at any time point;the same comparisons between the two groups,there was also no statistic significant difference before treatment and at each of the same time-point after treatment(all P>0.05). The levels of Cys-C,RBP andβ2-MG of the control group after treatment had the tendency of decreasing,but no statistic significant differences were found(all P>0.05). The levels of Cys-C,RBP,β2-MG of the experimental group at the 12th week after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment〔Cys-C(mg/L):0.72±0.07 vs. 0.89±0.12,RBP (mg/L):53.0±14.2 vs. 66.1±16.5,β2-MG(mg/L):1.86±0.71 vs. 2.79±0.82,all P<0.05〕. Conclusions Qizhi Jiangtang capsule can significantly reduce the levels of urine mALB and mALB/UCr of patients with stageⅢDN and stabilize their renal functions;its therapeutic effect is better then that of valsartan. Its mechanisms are related to the reduction of ET-1,elevation of NO,maintenance of dynamic equilibrium of thromboxane A2/prostacycline(TXA2/PGI2) and protection of vascular endothelial cells.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect on repairing facial nerve injury of rabbits by neural stem cells and autologous fasia. Methods22 rabbits with transected facial nerve were divided into 2 groups randomly, control group (8 rabbits,15 sides totally), which transected facial nerve were wrapped by autologous fasia, and treament group (14 rabbits, 20 sides totally), which were wrapped by neural stem cells and autologous fasia. Six weeks after transplantation, neuro-electrophysiological test, immunohistochemical examination were done. The number and thickness of myelin in the re-connected area of transected facial nerve were observed. ResultsThe transplanted animals recovered much better than that in control group (P<0.05). Immunohistochemical examination showed a great deal of BrdU positive cells around the re-connected area of transected facial nerve. Immunohistochemical staining also found plenty of regenerative myelins in this area in the treatment group. While in control group, there were no BrdU positive cells and only a few of regenerative myelins in the same area. ConclusionTransplantation of neural stem cells combined with autologous fasia might become the new method to treat facial nerve injury.
