Objective To explore the anti-convulsion action of histamine(HA) in the central system and treatment of histamine H3 receptor(H3R) antagonists to rat model with intractable epilepsy.Methods 88 Wistar rats(12-day-old) were randomly divided into three groups:normal control group,N-methyl-D-aspartate(NMDA) group and betahistine(BH) groups(including high and low dose BH groups).Wistar rats received an intraperitoneal NMDA administration to make animal model of intractable epilepsy at infant period and toddler age.After that,the rats were observed daily for latencies and incidences to two NMDA-dependent stereotypical behaviors.The HA content of each brain region was determined with fluorimetry,and H3R were evaluated with immunohistochemical method.Results The automatisms including tail twisting and emprosthotonus seizures of(12-17)-day-old rats were observed in NMDA and BH groups.The rats,aged 18-25 d,became quiet following automatisms rather than emprothotonic.Compared with NMDA group,BH groups had longer latencies and lower incidences of tail twisting and emprosthotonus(P0.05).Conclusion The NMDA-induced model is similar to the clinical manifest of human West syndrome.It is up to animal model of intractable epilepsy at infant period and toddler age.The HA content of brain region is negatively related with seizure incidence.H3R antagonists have certain therapeutic function to intractable epilepsy in rats at infant period and toddler age.

Objective To investigate the expression of serum Golgi protein 73 in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) and analyze the clinical significance.Methods The expression of GP73 was measured by ELISA in 75 HCC ,30 chronic hepatitis and normal con -trols.Results The serum concentrations of GP73 were (128.3 ±33.6)μg/L,(80.3 ±19.2)μg/L and (78.3 ±18.5)μg/L in the HCC, chronic hepatitis patients and normal controls .The serum level of GP73 was significantly higher in HCC than those with chronic hepatitis and healthy controls .GP73 expression was positively correlated with clinical stage , humor size and metastasis.The positive rate of GP73 in stage was 60%,higher than the AFP positive rate(33%).Conclusions The serum level of GP73 is high in HCC and was helpful for distinguishing benign and malignant liver diseases .GP73 can be used as a diagnostic marker for HCC .

Objective To investigate the ambulatory changes of the expressions of neuroserpin (NSP) and tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) during hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) in primarily cultured rat cortical neurons. Methods Cortical neurons were cultured from SD rats within 24 h after birth, and a H/R model was built. The immunofluorescence double staining and Western blot were used to detect the NSP expression in the cultured neurons. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the expression of tPA. Results After oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) for 1.5 h, the expression of NSP protein was mildly up-regulated, and it reached the peak at 6 h after reoxygenation (P < 0. 05). Then it decreased slowly and basically restored to the level before hypoxia at 24 h after reoxygenation. The cells expressed a small amount of tPA at 1.5 h after OGD (P < 0. 05 ). With the extension of time for reoxygenation, the tPA content increased gradually. OGD was significantly higher at 6 h after reoxygenation than before (P < 0.01 ). Then it decreased gradually, and it basically restored to the level before reoxygenation at 24 h after reoxygenation. Conclusions The expressions of NSP and tPA Were up-regulated significantly during neuron H/R injury, and the ambulatory changes of NSP and tPA were basically the same.

Objective To investigate the relationship between white matter lesions (WML) within the cholinergic pathway and vascular cognitive impairment.Method Middle-aged and elderly stroke patients underwent brain MRI examination and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA).Cholinergic Pathways Hyperintensities Scale (CHIPS) scores and the overall WML burden by Schelten on fluidattenuated inversion recovery MRI images were determined and compared with MoCA scores.Spearman partial rank correlation coefficients and standardized regression coefficients were calculated.Results Thirty four patients were included ( mean age ( 62.2 ± 8.8 ) years, 45-82 years).MoCA scores negatively correlated with WML burdens by Schelten scores ( β = - 0.357, P = 0.042) and CHIPS scores ( β =-0.382,P=0.026).CHIPS scores were negatively associated with visuospatial and executive function (r = - 0.290, P = 0.048 ), naming function ( r = - 0.486, P = 0.002 ), attention ( r = - 0.311, P =0.037) and abstraction ( r = - 0.344, P = 0.023).Schelten scores were negatively associated with naming function (r = - 0.492, P = 0.002), attention ( r = - 0.364, P = 0.017) and abstraction ( r = - 0.390,P=0.011).Conclusion WML lesions within the cholinergic pathyway play a possible role in vascular cognitive impairment especially in visuospatial and executive function.

BACKGROUND:As an oral anticoagulant drug, many experiments have proved that rivaroxaban can prevent the deep venous thromboembolism after the hip arthroplasty. The foreign literatures indicate that it can significantly reduce the incidence of deep venous thromboembolism after extending the treatment course to 35 days. But there is no significant conclusion at home, and the safety of drugs after extentding the course has not been confirmed. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban versus low-molecular-weight heparin for the prevention of deep venous thrombosis after the hip arthroplasty. METHODS:106 patients with primary unilateral hip arthroplasty in the Second Clinical Medical College of Shanxi Medical University between March 2011 and September 2012 were selected. The patients were randomly divided into rivaroxaban group and low-molecular-weight heparin group. The patients in two groups were given drugs at 6 hours after replacement, the patients in the rivaroxaban group were given rivaroxaban 10 mg/d with the course of 5 weeks;the patients in the low-molecular-weight heparin group were given low-molecular-weight heparin 4 100 U/d with the course of 2 weeks. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The review and fol ow-up results showed there was no deep vein thrombosis or symptoms of deep vein thrombosis in patients of the rivaroxaban group after replacement, while seven cases (13%) of deep vein thrombosis were observed in the low-molecular-weight heparin group, and there was significant difference in the incidence rate of deep vein thrombosis between two groups (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in venous blood hemoglobin level, platelet level and coagulation function before and after replacement, as wel as the drainage volume and subcutaneous ecchymosis area after replacement of the patients received unilateral hip arthroplasty between two groups (P>0.05). The results indicate that ful course of rivaroxaban has clear effect and reliable security in the prevention of deep venous thrombosis after hip arthroplasty.

Objective To explore the relationship between obese children with benign acanthosis ni-gricans and insulin-resistant and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods Levels of glucose, insulin, and glucose/ insulin ratio were measured on fasting blood specimens, and anthropometric parameters including waist/hip ratio, fat mass, body fat percentage and body mass index were examined in 42 obese children with benign acanthosis nigricans, 60 cases of simple obesity and 20 healthy children controls. Glucose tolerance tests were performed in groups of obese children with benign acanthosis nigricans and simple obesity, respectively. Results Two of 42 obese children with benign acanthosis nigricans were diagnosed as type 2 diabetes mellitus. The rate of abnormal glucose tolerance and levels of blood sugar during 60 min and 120 min after glucose tolerance were significantly higher in acanthosis nigricans children than those in simple obesity (P

0.05). Body weight, blood pressure, blood routine test and blood biochemical parameters did not change in the two groups. Only mild side reactions of aescin was found and there was no dropout in the study group, whereas 7 patients dropped out in the control group due to the intolerance for the pressure. Conclusion Aescin has similar efficacy and fewer side effects compared with the compression stocking method in the treatment of chronic venous insufficiency.
