To provide a reference basis for the structural design and optimization of endovascular stent by analyzing the flow resistance of the new stent with triangle cross-section using numerical simulation method, and finding out the stent structure which will influence hemodynamic parameters. Four kinds of models of the triangle cross-section bare stent were constructed in infinite flow field using solidworks software. Numerical simulations of the four models were performed respectively using ANSYS finite element software. Steady flows and transient flows in these models were studied. Hemodynamics data in the four models were collected, such as the flow patterns, the distribution of pressure and the flow resistance of the new stents. The stent with triangular wire cross-section can be applied to cover aneurysm cavity because that resistance of blood inflow to aneurysm was large and outflow from aneurysm was small. Thus, it was easy to outflow than inflow. Thereby blood perfusion and flow of aneurysm cavity was restrained, and the pressure of aneurysm cavity was reduced, which plays a certain effect on the treatment of aneurysm. This result provides some instructions for the design of stent structure.

Objective To investigate the antioxidant ability and radiosensitivity in the malignant transformed human bronchial epithelial cell line BEP2D induced by α-particle exposure.Methods Glutathione Peroxidase (GPX),Catalase (CAT) and Glutathione (GSH) assay kits were employed to detect GPX and CAT enzyme abilities and the levels of GSH in BEP2D,RH21 ( passage 21 of α-particle-irradiated BEP2D cells),and BERP35T-1 cells (derived from nude mice bearing malignant transformed cells generated from cells of passage 35 of α-particle-irradiated BEP2D cells).MTT assay were used to test the growth rate of BEP2D,RH21 and BERP35T-1 cells treated with 0,30,60,90,120,and 150 μmoL/L H2O2.Colony-forming test and MTT assay were used to examine the cell survival fraction and the growth rate of BEP2D,RH21 and BERP35T-1 cells exposed to 0,2,4,and 8 Gy of γ-rays,respectively.Results GPX and CAT enzyme activities in RH21 and BERP35T-1 cells were obviously lower than in BEP2D( t = 5.75-67.92 ,P ＜ 0.05 ).CAT enzyme activity in BERP35T-1 was lower than that in RH21 cells (t =22.25 ,P ＜0.01 ).Compared to BEP2D cells,decreased level of GSH was detected in BERP35T-1 cells(t = 7.76,P ＜ 0.05 ),but there was no change in RH21.After treatment with 30,60,90,120,and 150 μmol/L H2O2,the growth rates of BEP2D were all higher than those of BERP35T-1 cells(t = 10.37-58.36,P ＜0.01 ).Meanwhile,the growth rates of BEP2D were all higher than those of RH21 cells after treatment with 60,90,120,and 150 μ mol/L H2O2 (t = 29.90-84.68,P ＜ 0.01 ).In addition,compared to BEP2D cells,decreased cell survival fraction and growth rate of BERP35T-1 cells were observed after irradiation with 2,4,and 8 Gy of y-rays ( t = 5.87-34.17,P ＜ 0.05 ).The cell survival fraction and growth rate of RH21 were all lower than those of BEP2D cells at 4 and 8 Gy post-irradition( t =6.33- 45.00,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion The function of antioxidant system decreased in the α-particleinduced transformed cells,which could contribute to the acceleration of cellular malignant transforming process and radiosensitivity.

Objective To observe the effect and the mechanisms of ferulic acid on radiationinduced damage of mice peripheral blood and bone marrow hematopoietic function.Methods Ninety-six mice were randomly divided into sham irradiation group,irradiation group,positive drug group and 10,30,90 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 ferulic acid group,16 mice per group.Mice were exposed to 3.5 Gy γ-rays 24 h after first drug taken.Then,mice were given drugs for 7 d after irradiation.White blood cells in peripheral blood of 10 mice per group were counted 2 d before irradiation and 3,7,10,15 and 22 days after irradiation.The bone narrow of the other six mice was taken to detect the micronuclei frequency of polychromatic erythrocyte,the hematopoietic progenitor cell colony formation capacity,Thbd and HMGB1 protein expressions in mice bone marrow on the seventh day after irradiation.Results Compared with the irradiation alone group,the treatment of mice with ferulic acid 90 mg· kg-1 · d-1 increased the number of white blood cells in peripheral blood at 3,10,15 and 22 d after irradiation (t =2.267,2.399,1.945,2.828,P ＜ 0.05).Treatment with mice with ferulic acid 90 mg· kg-1 · d 1 decreased the micronuclei rate of erythrocytes in irradiated bone marrow (t =4.013,P ＜ 0.05),increased the clone numbers of CFU-E,BFU-E and CFU-GM of hematopoietic progenitor cells (t =2.366,2.953,3.115,P ＜0.05),improved the relative expression of the Thbd protein in bone marrow and the HMGB1 protein in nuclear (t =17.75,23.39,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Ferulilc acid could protect the bone marrow hematopoietic of mice exposed to irradiation by regulating the expressions of Thbd and HMGB1 protein,and then accelerate the peripheral cells recovery.

Background and purpose:HPV infection is known as the primary cause of cervical cancer worldwide To investigate high risk type human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence and incidence rates of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and their screen risk factors in women with different methods of screening.Methods:1137 residents, workers and service women aged 15-59 from Shenzhen city were investigated for cervical cancer in an epidemiology screening study.The high risk types of human papillomavirus of liquid-based cytology samples were tested by hybrid capture 2 (HC-Ⅱ) and liquid-based cytology test (LCT) was also performed at the same time. Women for HPV-positive with LCT ≥ atypical squamous cells of undetermined sign (ASCUS) or HPV-negative with LCT ≥ low grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) were biopsied in colposcopy and then were examined by pathology. All data was managed by Foxbase. ?2 test and unconditional Logistic regression model were used for data analysis by SPSS 10.0.Results:1137 women were eligible in our research, the overall rates of HPV infection was 14.0%. HPV detection rates in residents, workers and service women were 14.1%,9.2%,18.9% respectively. HPV detection rates in workers group was significantly lower than that of service women and residents (P

Objective To study the dose-effect relationship and time-effect relationship of T cell receptor (TCR) gene mutation induced by γ-rays in lymphocytes of human peripheral blood.Methods Samples of peripheral blood were collected from 10 healthy adults and lymphocytes were separated.Four samples from males used to fit time-effect curve were exposed to γ-rays at the doses of 0,0.5,1.0,1.5,2.0,2.5,3.0,3.5,4.0,and 5.0 Gy,respectively,and 6 samples from 3 males and 3 females used to fit dose-effect curves were exposed to γ-rays of the dose of 2 Gy.Flow cytometry was used to detect the mutation frequency of TCR gene (TCR MF).Radiation dose-effect curves and time-effect curves were fitted and optimal mathematical models were selected respectively.Results The optimal mathematical model for radiation dose-effect was quadratic equation model:TCR MF = 92.14 + 22.61D2 (R2adj = 0.65).The optimal mathematical model for radiation time-effect was quadratic polynomial equation model:TCR MF = 3.74 + 743.66T + 308.64T2 (R2adj = 0.79).Conclusions TCR MF is increased as the γ-rayirradiation dose increases within the range of 0-5 Gy,and TCR MF is increased with the lapse of time within the range of 4 days after γ-ray radiation.

Objective To investigate the effect of intrathecal dexmedetomidine pretreatment on my-ocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I∕R) injury in rats. Methods Forty-five adult Sprague-Dawley rats of both sexes, weighing 200-250 g, in which intrathecal catheters were successfully placed without complications, were divided into 3 groups (n= 15 each) using a random number table: sham operation group (group S), group I∕R and intrathecal dexmedetomidine pretreatment group ( group DEX). Myocardial I∕R injury was produced by occlusion of the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery for 30 min followed by 120 min reperfusion. Dexmedetomidine 1 μg∕kg (diluted to 10 μl in normal saline) was intrathecally injec-ted at 30 min before ischemia in group DEX. The equal volume of normal saline was given in group I∕R. Blood samples were collected from the cardiac apex at the end of reperfusion for measurement of plasma nor-epinephrine (NE) and cardiac troponin I ( cTnI) concentrations. Then all the rats were sacrificed, and myocardial tissues were obtained for determination of myocardical infarct size, and the spinal cord was isola-ted to detect the expression of c-fos in the spinal dorsal horn by Western blot. Results Compared with group S, the myocardical infarct size, plasma NE and cTnI concentrations were significnatly increased, and the expression of c-fos in the spinal dorsal horn was up-regulated in I∕R and DEX groups (P<0. 05). Compared with group I∕R, the myocardical infarct size, plasma NE and cTnI concentrations were signific-natly decreased, and the expression of c-fos in the spinal dorsal horn was down-regulated in group DEX (P<0. 05). Conclusion Intrathecal dexmedetomidine pretreatment can reduce myocardial I∕R injury in rats, and the mechanims may be related to decreasing plasma NE levels and inhibiting c-fos expression in the spinal dorsal horn.
