Objective To observe the effect of Jiakang formula on thyroid hormone and thyroid pathological changes of experimental hyperthyroid rats. Methods Forty rats were given Euthyrox daily at 75 ?g/100 g ig and randomly divided into hyperthyroidism model group, control group, middle dose Jiakang formula group, high dose Jiakang formula group, each with 10 rats, as well as 10 rats as normal group. Three weeks later, the rats were killed for observing the effect of Jiakang formula on thyroid hormone and thyroid pathological changes of experimental hyperthyroid rats. Result Jiakang formula could lower the level of FT3, FT4, T3, T4 and promote the level of TSH, also improve thyroid pathological changes, especially in high dose Jiakang formula group. Conclusions Jiakang formula had the effect of improving the function and pathology of thyroid on experimental hyperthyroid rats.

Objective To establish an evaluation system about animals infected with hantavirus,an observation of the BALB/c mice infected with hantavirus was made.Methods BALB/c mice were infected with hantavirus by intramuscular injection with stock solution.The specific antigen from BALB/c mice tissues after 3 days was detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and viral RNA with real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results Within a short term,the specific antigen and viral RNA were detected from the brain and liver at day 3 after infection,but not be detected from the heart,spleen,lung,and kidney samples.Conclusions The results provided ones with some information on animals infected with hantavirus.

Objective To observe the effect of hyperthyroidism decoction on thyroid hormone and thyroid pathological changes of ex-perimental hyperthyroid rats. Methods 40 rats were randomly divided into four groups: Normal group,hyperthyreosis model group, western drugs control group and hyperthyroidism decoction group. The model rats were constructed by drenching Youjiale. Hyperthyroidism decoction group were given hyperthyroidism decoction of respective dosage, western drugs control group were given propylthiouracil. The serum contents of T3, T4, FT3, FT4 and TSH were determined by radio-immunity method, the thyroid pathological changes effected by hyperthyroidism de-coction were observed. Results Compared with model group, the contents of serum T3, T4, FT3, FT4, of hyperthyroidism decoction group were decreased, while the contents of serum TSH were increased. Hyperthyroidism decoction may improve thyroid pathological changes of ex-perimental hyperthyroid rats. Conclusion Hyperthyroidism decoction can effectively improve the thyroid function of experimental hyperthy-roid rats.

AIM: To observe the effects of sodium restricted or supplemented on atrial natriuretic polypeptide (ANP) and cardiac function of rats with congestive heart failure (CHF).METHODS: CHF rats were divided into three groups with sham operation rats group as control. Radioimmunassay was used to determine the ANP contents of plasma and myocardium, at the same time cardiac function was measured.RESULTS: In sodium restricted group, the plasma sodium and atrial ANP and left ventricular systolic pressure and artery pressure were obviously lower than those in CHF group, while the plasma and ventricular ANP and the right atrial pressure were remarkably higher; In sodium supplemented group, the plasma sodium and arterial pressure had no obvious change compared with the control, the plasma and myocardium ANP and the right atrial pressure had no difference as compared with CHF group, while the left ventricular end diastolic pressure was remarkably lower and the left ventricular systolic pressure were obviously higher. CONCLUSION: Keeping the balance of plasma sodium by an appropriate supplement of sodium intake after CHF might be beneficial to the ANP biological effects and the cardiac function.

Objective To explore the neuroimmunomedulation mechanism of ICAM-1 and LFA-1 in children with febrile seizures (FS).Methods 40 children with FS were dividedinto simple FS(SFs)groupin20 cases and complex FS(CFS)groupin20 cases,and 30 health children matched with regard to age and sex were enrolled into control group.The real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR wag used to detect the expression of PBMC ICAM-1 mRNA.At the same time,the PBMC LFA-1 mRNA expression wfs studied with Send-QuantitativeRT-PCR analysis.Results The levels of PBMC ICAM-1 mRNA in SFS group were significantly higher than those in control group and CF$group(P<0.05).The levels ofPBMC ICAM-1 mRNA showed downtrend between CFS group and control group.but there was no statistical difference between the two groups(P>0.05).The levels of PBMC LFA-1 mRNA grey-scales in SFS group were significantly higher than those in control group and CFS group(P<0.05).In addition,the levels of PBMC LFA-1 mRNA in CFS group showed downtrend than those in control group,but there wti8 no statistical difference between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusions The gene expression levels of PBMC ICAM-I/LFA-I in SFS group were different from those in CFS group.Inflammable immunopathology damage induced by ICAM-1/LFA-1 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of SFS.On the contrary,ICAM-1/LFA-1 may have seme neuroprotective effects on the pathogenesis of CFS.

Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of diced cartilage in correcting nasal alar base depression after cleft lip surgery. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in 15 patients of nasal deformity after lip surgery from January 2018 to January 2019. All the patients were taken from autologous costal cartilage to reconstruct the outline of nasal malformation, and the remaining autologous costal cartilage was cut into 0.5-1.0 mm pieces and filled into the basilar lacunar space of the nasal alar by the 1 ml syringe whose anterior needle nipples was removed. The effects of visual images before and after operation were compared and analyzed by Adobe Photoshop CS6 software. The patients were followed up for 6-15 months (mean 10months). The satisfaction and complications of the patients were investigated. Results: The nasal alar base was significantly elevated and the outline of the nasal deformity was improved in 15 patients after operation. The overall effect was satisfactory and no obvious complications were found. No obvious absorption was found in the follow-up. Conclusions The application of diced cartilage to correct the nasal alar base depression after cleft lip surgery was a feasible method with important clinical value. It advanced in taking good use of the remaining cartilage and reducing the damage to both the donor and recipient area.
