Objective To evaluate the short-term effect of pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation training under the guidance of doctors on children with neuropathic acontractile sphincter incontinence ( NASI ).Methods Sixty eighty children[aged 4 - 12 ( mean, 7 ) years]with NASI were selected.All children were randomly divided into multiple guidance group and single guidance group.Pelvic floor muscle rrehabilitation training was successfully accomplished in all children.Three-day urinary diary, 7-day fecal diary, the ICI-Q-SF score and urodynamic evaluations were completed before and after the treatment.Three months later, follow-up was carried out.The results were compared between the groups.Results After treatment,TOV, LT, TFI and ICI-Q-SF of multiple guidance group were significantly lower than those of single guidance group[(29±8) vs (34±12), (19±10) vs (25 ±12), (1.9±1.1) vs (2.5 ±1.3), (9±5) vs ( 12 ± 6 ), P ＜ 0.05], however, PMUC of multiple guidance group was significantly higher than those of single guidance group[(5.6 ± 2.0 ) vs (4.7 ± 1.7 ), P ＜ 0.05].The effective rate of multiple guidance group after treatment and at follow-up were respectively 79.4% and 70.6% , significantly higher than those of single guidance group ( 64.7% and 50.0%, P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation training under the guidance of doctors has satisfactory therapeutic efficacy on the children with NASI.

The process of tumorigenesis,local invasion and distant metastasis will produce a series of molecular changes,these genetic mutation or abnormal expression of molecules play a promoting role in hypercoagulation.At the same time,hypercoagulation also increases the risk of tumor progression.It is important to understand their specific processes and the molecular role,and it can provide theoretical basis for better management of patients,and has significance for developing more effective and security new anti-clotting drugs.

Objective To explore whether physiological doses of testosterone therapy can modulate cardiomyocyte aging via classical androgen receptor (AR) dependent pathways.Methods Male C57BL/6J mice and testicular feminized (Tfm) mice were divided into five experimental groups:the control group (n=8),the castrated group (n=8),the Tfm group (n=7),the testosterone treated castrated group (n=8),and the testosterone-treated Tfm group (n =8).After isolation of cardiomyocytes from the left ventricle,the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the amount of malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured using colorimetry,and the expression of the p16INK4a and retinoblastoma (Rb) proteins was detected by Western blotting.Results Compared with the control group,the activity of SOD in the castrated group and the Tfm group declined [(16.55±1.18) U/ml,(17.30±1.32) U/ml vs.(21.57±2.21)U/ml,P＜0.05)],the amount of MDA increased [(7.78±1.27)μmol/L,(6.52±0.82)μmol/L vs.(3.48±0.70)μmol/L],P＜0.01,and the expression of both the p16INK4aand Rb proteins increased [(0.37±0.08),(0.45±0.06) vs.(0.14±0.02),forp16INK4a,P＜0.05; (0.74±0.05),(0.79±0.08) vs.(0.40±0.05),for Rb,P＜0.05].Compared with the castrated group,the activity of SOD in the testosterone treated castrated group increased [(23.00±0.58)U/ml vs.(16.55±1.18) U/ml,P＜0.01],the amount of MDA decreased [(2.63±0.90) μmol/L vs.(7.78±1.27) μmol/L,P＜0.01],and the p16INK4a and Rb proteins were both downregulated (0.13 ± 0.03 vs.0.37± 0.08),for p16INK4a,P＜0.05; (0.45 ±0.05) vs.(0.79±0.08),for Rb P＜0.05.Compared with the Tfm group,the activity of SOD in testosterone-treated Tfm group increased,the amount of MDA decreased,and the p16IN4a and Rb proteins were both downregulated (P＜ 0.05).No significant differences in these markers were detected between the testosterone-treated castrated group and the testosterone-treated Tfm group.Conclusions Physiological doses of testosterone can retard cardiomyocyte aging via androgen receptor independent pathways.

Objective To explore the effect of non-directed musical therapy on the automatic thoughts and therapeutic effect of depression.Methods 60 people outpatient and inpatient who with depression disorder participated in this research.According to the medical order,we choose the people who with Cardinality order as the group of the musical therapy (study group) and the people with the even order as the group of drug therapy (control group).all the patients was test with the Hamilton's Depression Scale (HAMD-24) and Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire (ATQ) before and after 2,4,8 weeks treatment,and comparison of these questionnaires scores of the two groups.Results After the 2,4,8 weeks treatment,the HAMD scores of the study group was (15.70±2.63),(10.03±2.28),(6.00± 1.98) and the scores of control group was (17.43±2.62),(12.47±2.75),(7.50±2.03).The result of HAMD scores had significant difference(F=11.754,P=0.001).ATQ scores of the study group was (73.27± 17.60),(58.33± 13.66),(47.43± 11.94) and the scores of control group was(84.20±22.30),(72.53±20.86),(58.90± 18.61).The result of ATQ scores had significant difference(F=4.136,P=0.047).Conclusion Non-directive musical imagery could be an effective way to improve the automatic thoughts of people who with depression disorder and improve the effect of treatment.

To investigate the role of Gli1 in DDP-resistance in lung cancer.Methods:A DDP-resistant human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A 549/DDP was cultured and transfected with Gli 1 siRNA.The mRNA and protein expression levels of Gli 1 were evaluated by qPT-PCR,Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence microscopy.The expression of Bcl-2、caspases-3、cyclinD1 was evaluated by Western blot analysis.Hoechst 33258 staining and flow cytometry were used to detect spontaneous cell apoptosis and cell cycle.The cell inhibition rate and DDP-induced cell death were examined by MTT and Annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide staining.Results:Gli1-knockdown by using Gli 1-specific siRNA led to a markedly decrease in Gli 1 mRNA and protein expression levels,when compared to negative siRNA transfected cells and untreated control cells (P=0.001).The downstream effectors of Gli1, Bcl-2 and cyclinD1 proteins were also inhibited (P=0.003),the expression of caspase-3 was increased (P=0.001).Hoechst 33258 staining showed that Gli1 depletion by Gli1 siRNA in A549/DDP cells could induce spontaneous apoptosis.The result of cell cycle showed Gli1 siRNA could lead more cells arrest in G1 phase.The IC50 of A549/DDP cells on DDP was (12.63 ±1.11 )μg/ml /(13.81±1.14)μg/ml,which decreased to (2.65±0.85)μg/ml after being transfected with Gli1 siRNA (P=0.000).Annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide staining showed that DDP-induced apoptosis rate in Gli 1-silencing cells was higher than that in negative siRNA or untreated control cells ( 35.19%±3.92% vs 6.43%±0.11%/5.01%±0.77%, P=0.000 ).Conclusion: Application of RNA interference can restrain the expression of Gli 1 mRNA and protein observably in A549/DDP cells,and increase the sensitivity of A549/DDP cells to cisplatin.Maybe Gli1 will become a new target to reverse the cisplatin resistance for lung cancer.

It has been proved recently that insulin signal transduction pathway and insulin resistance exist in islet?-cells.Defects in insulin signaling of the?-cells decrease glucose-stimulated first-phase insulin release, inhibit proliferation of?-cells and promote apoptosis of?-cells.Obesity accelerates the development of insulin resistance of?-cells,which may play a central role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To investigate the effects of inducible hypothermia on expressions of peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 (PGC-1) and small heterodimer partner (SHP) in rat model of hemorrhagic shock.Methods SD rats were randomly (random number) divided into three groups:control (C),normothermia (N) and hypothermia (H).Exsanguination was carried out in rats by continuously drawing out venous blood (25 mL/kg) over 15 minutes to establish hemorrhagic shock model.Then,rectal temperatures of rats were maintained by body surface cooling to 32℃ in H group and by body surface warming to 38℃ in N group,respectively.After a shock period of 60 minutes,rats received the infusion of whole blood of their own and lactated Ringer's solution (1 ∶ 2) treatment for 60 min.Rats were warmed to 38℃ by body surface warming and monitored for 3 h after resuscitation.Hematocrit (Hct),base excess (BE),lactate (Lac),and glucose (Glu) were recorded before modeling and after different lengths of hemorrhagic shock period (HSP).The expressions of PGC-1 mRNA and SHP mRNA and the levels of their protein in liver were tested by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blotting,respectively.Results The H group had lower lactate levels and higher BElevels than the N group [(6.3±2.1) vs.(10.4±1.5) and (-4.7±2.5) vs.(-9.0±3.2)] (P＜ 0.05).At 72 hours after modeling,there were four survivors in the N group and seven survivors in the H group (P ＜ 0.05,Log Rank).The expressions of PGC-1 mRNA and SHP mRNA increased in N group.Hypothermia resuscitation down-regulated PGC-1 mRNA expression,meanwhile,increased expression of SHP mRNA.Both Hypothermia and Normothermia resuscitation increased SHP protein levels,but decreased PGC-1 protein levels.Conclusions Inducible hypothermia ameliorated acidosis and energy metabolism imbalance through adaptive regulation in PGC-1 and SHP.

Objective To clone and sequence variant-specific surface antigen gene from Giardia lamblia isolate SUCH/89/BTMRI/2(C2) derived from human in China. Methods Total genomic DNA of G.lamblia was extracted and a full-length variant-specific surface antigen gene fragment was amplified by pelymerase chain reaction (PCR). The PCR product was cloned into pMD19-T simple-vector, transformed into an Escherichia coli JM109 strain and then sequenced. The sequence analysis for cloned fragment was finished by Vector NTI 9.0 software for the homology of Giardia variantspecific surface antigen gene to that of sequences publishend in GenBank. Results The full-length variant-specific surface antigen gone fragment from G. lamblia was found to be 2 142 bp, encoding a 713 amino acid polypeptide and contained a single open reading frame (ORF). The deduced polypeptide sequence was rich in cysteine (11.8 mol%), most of which occurred with in 29 copies of the 4-amino acid CXXC motif, one GGCY-tetrapeptide motifs and three NXS consensus N-linked glycosylation sites. This polypeptide was also rich in threonine (10.2 mol%), glycine (12.1 mol%) and alanine (10.1 mol%). Like other previously identified VSPs, it contained a highly conserved hydropbebic Cterminal region. The homology of G. lamblia SUCH/89/BTMRI/2(C2) variant-specific surface antigen gene to that of sequence (TSA417) published in GenBank was 99% both at the nueleotide and the amino acid levels. Conclusion The full length variant-specific surface antigen gene from the isolate of G. lamblia has the common characteristics with other previously identified VSPs.

Objective:To discuss the significance of standardized treatment for cancer pain, according to the Cancer Pain Treat-ment Specification (2011 Edition) issued by the Ministry of Health, PR China. Methods:Clinical data of 126 patients with cancer pain, who were admitted to the Department of Medical Oncology, The Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University, were collected to com-pare the improvement of the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) score, number of breakthrough pain, and quality of life score after treatment. The relationships between different pain grades, disease entities, and treatment effect were analyzed. The influence factors of pain relief were also analyzed by using Logistic regression analysis. Results:1). Following standardized treatment, the improvement rate of NRS score has shown significant differences in pain grading (P=0.001) and gender (P=0.000). However, no significant differences were ob-served between different diseases (P=0.112). The improvement rate of the life quality score and the number of breakthrough pain had no significant difference after standardized treatment. 2). The grading of cancer pain and the disease entities had little effect on cancer pain relief. 3). The anti-tumor treatment and“no distant metastasis”were the independent factors that brought about the decrease in NRS and quality of life scores.“No distant metastasis”(P=0.046) was the independent factor that reduced the number of pain out-breaks. Conclusion: The standardized treatment positively affects the NRS score, number of breakthrough pain, and quality of life score. Patients who received anti-neoplastic therapy and who had no distant metastasis showed significant treatment effectiveness in pain management.

The morphological indexes of the Scuophularia ningpoensis seedlings including the longth, diameter and weight were measured, clustering analysis was used to set up the standard quality grading of seedlings of S. Ningpoensis by SPSS. Field experiment was carried out to measure the indicators of plants growth and development, the yield and the quality. The results showed that the growth and yield of class I seedlings were better than those of class II and III. The content of main active ingredients was affected barely by seedlings classification. To ensure the quality, class II seedlings or above should be used for plantation. The established quality classification standard of S. ningpoensis seedlings was scientific and feasible, and provides the basis for the standardized cultivation of S. ningpoensis.
