Objective To investigate the effect of mild therapeutic hypothermia for different lengths of time on cerebral edema and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 α (HIF-1α),vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expressions following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) so as to explore possible mechanism for better application of mild hypothermia.Methods ICH models were made in rats by stereotaxically injecting autologous artery blood into right caudate nucleus.Forty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly (random number) divided into 5 groups (n =8 each):sham-operated (sham),normothermic (NT),hypothermic-1 hour (MH1),hypothermic-2 hours (MH2),hypothermic-4 hours (MH3).Normothermic and sham-operated animals were kept at (37.0-± 0.2) ℃ of body temperature.Animals in the hypothermic groups received immediately and rapid cooling after ICH and kept at (33.0 ± 0.5) ℃ of body temperature for 1,2 and 4 hours respectively.Rats were sacrificed at 48 hours after cerebral hemorrhage.Then brain water content and BBB permeability were determined.Quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot were used to analyze the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF.Results The content of brain water,Evans blue concentration in brain,and the mRNA expression and protein levels of HIF-1α and VEGF were noticeably higher in NT group than those in sham group (P ＜0.01).There were statistically significant difference in the expression of HIF-lα mRNA and protein but little difference in other indicators between MH1 group and NT group.Compared with NT group,MH2 group and MH3 group brought about an improvement in BBB permeability and remarkable down-regulation of protein levels and expression of HIF-1 α and VEGF mRNA,whereas there were no statistically significant difference in expression of indicators between the two groups.Conclusions Mild therapeutic hypothermia induced rapidly and immediately after ICH could limit the development of brain edema in rats by down-regulating expression and protein levels of HIF-1 α mRNA,and in turn suppressing the evaluation of VEGF mRNA and protein expression.The brain edema was effectively reduced in animals treated with hypothermia for 2 hours' or 4 hours ' duration with little difference in magnitude of reduction in brain edema between these two modalities of hypothermia.

The cervical spinal canal at C_3-C_7 (200 in total) of 40 adult cervical spinal columns were measured on the axis radiograph. The diameter and area of spinal canal and corresponding spinal cord were investigated with vernier calipers and planimeter.The average values of the measurements are reported as follows:1. The sagittal and transverse diameter of the cervical spinal canal at C_3-C_7 are 13.71?1.31mm and 24.15?1.91mm, while those of the corresponding segment of spinal cord are 7.99?1.01mm and 13.35?1.64mm, respectively.2. The total area of the spinal canal and spinal cord at C_3-C_7 are 239.35?41.78 mm~1 and 106.6?9.9 mm~2, respectively. These data were studied with computer using multiple linear regression analysis program and a calculating formula of cervical spinal canal and the corresponding segment of spinal cord were inferred.Since sagittal and transverse diameters of vertebral canal and cervical spinal cord are measured, we may calculate the both area by using above mentioned formula. This will offer a new method for diagnosis of spinal canal stenosis and spondylosis.

[Abstract ] Objective Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs) can be induced to the differentiation into vascular smooth muscle cells in many induction conditions.We sought to explore the possibility of the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into vascular smooth muscle cells by continuous cell culture in vitro. Methods Rat BMSCs were isolated from the bilateral tibial and femoral bones by the method of whole bone marrow adherence, followed by ex vivo expansion.BMSCs were identified by flow cytometry and three-lineage differentiation.After continuous five days'cell culture of BMSCs, the specific surface antigens of VSMCs were detec-ted by immunofluorescence, western blot and real-time PCR. Results BMSCs expressed CD29、90, in contrast, they did not express CD45、34、49d.After induction of osteogenesis, adipogenesis and chondrogenesis, alizarin red、oil red and alcian blue staining pro-duced a strong reaction in cells.The expressions ofα-SMA、Calponin1、SM-MHC and SM22 in the cells of experimental group were no-tably increased, which indicated that BMSCs were differentiating towards VSMCs. Conclusion In the absence of exogenous stimula-tion, BMSCs can be successfully induced to differentiate into VSMCs by continuous cell culture.

Background Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) has a high incidence in Uygur population and usually leads to secondary glaucoma and complicated cataract.The abnormal change of lens tissue and degeneration of zonular fibers bring a lot of difficulties for phacoemulsification (phaco) with intraocular lens implantation,especially stop-and-chop phaco technique.Prechop technique is a new choping technology,but its application in PEX with cataract is less.Objective This study was to compare the efficacy and safety of pre chop phaco technique and stop-and-chop phaco technique for PEX combined cataract.Methods A randomized controlled Clinical trial was designed.Forty-one eyes of 41 patients with PEX combined cataract of Ⅲ degree of nucleus were enrolled in People's Hospital of Hetian District from March 2015 to January 2016.The patients were randomized into the prechop group and stop-and-chop group according to random nubmer table,and cystotome-assisted prechop phaco surgery and stop-and-chop phaco surgery were performed in different groups,respectively.The effective phaco duration,corneal endothelium loss rate,cornea edema eye number after operation,vision outcomes and complications were compared between the two groups.Results The mean effective phaco duration was 14.0 (13.0,16.5) minutes and 18.5 (16.5,24.0) minutes in the prechop group and stop-and-chop group,with a significant difference between them (Z =17.354,P ＜ 0.01).The corneal endothelial cells were (2 101.90 ± 209.08)/mm in the prechop group,and the number was similar to (2 002.30 ± 207.04)/mm of the stop-and-chop group (t =-1.530,P =0.134).Corneal endothelial cell lossing rate was (8.27±2.23)％ in the prechop group,which was lower than (13.09±4.26)％ in the stop-and-chop group (t =3.810,P =0.001).The BCVA was better in the prechop group than that in the stop-and-chop group in postoperative day 3 (P =0.044),and the corneal edema degree was not signigicantly different in postoperative day 1 and day 3 between the two groups (P=0.221,0.446).Intraoperative complication was rapture of zonule and occurred in 1 eye and 2 eyes in the prechop group and stop-and-chop group,respectively.Conclusions Compared with the stop-and-chop phaco technique,the prechop phaco tequnique can decrease intraoperative complication,lighten the postoperative damage of corneal endothelial cells and accelerate visual rehabilitation in PEX combined with cataract patients.

Objective To observe the effect of meridian balancing on speech disorder in children with cerebral palsy. Methods 130 childrenaged 1.5~7 years old were divided into the control group (n=62) and treatment group (n=68). The control group received routine rehabilitationwhile the treatment group received meridian balancing in addition. Results The rate of improvement was 89.7% in treatmentgroup and 79% in control group (P<0.05). The rate was more for those with language retardation than with anarthria in the treatment group(P<0.01). Conclusion The meridian balancing is effective on speech disorder in children with cerebral palsy, especially for those with languageretardation.

ObjectiveTo investigate the application of CT inspection during the recovery period to cerebral infarct patients. Methods53 recurrence cases were taken out from random 100 cases of first reexamination CT films and analyzed while comparing the cases′ recurrence times,contents and the relationship between recurrence times and the original deceases.ResultsThere was no close connection between the rate of cerebral infarct recurrence and recurrence times(P>0.05).But cerebral infarct recurrence mainly appeared within the first year and the recurrence time caused by the presence of hypertension was shorter than the time caused by diabetes(P<0.05).92% cerebral infarct recurrence were cavity cerebral infarct recurrence and 11% were silent brain infarction.Conclusions It is significant for the patients to take CT reexamination within the first recovery year and also important for the no symptom patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of Epigallocatechin-3-gallate(EGCG)on oxidative stress and inflammatory factors in the kidney tissues of rats with paraquat poisoning,and explore the possible mechanism. Methods Rats were randomly divided into control group(group A), paraquat exposure group(group B),paraquat exposure+low dose of EGCG group(group C),and paraquat exposure+high dose of EGCG group (group D)(n=10 in each group). Kidney tissues were harvested and observed by HE staining. The level of creatinine was tested by biochemical detector. Serum oxidative stress and inflammatory factor level were detected by ELISA method. Oxidative stress in kidney tissue was determined by Western blotting and colorimetry. Inflammatory factor level in renal tissue was tested by real-time PCR. Results Kidney damage was observed in rats of groups B,C,and D. Rats in groups C and D showed less renal injury than group B,and high dose of EGCG(group D)enhanced kidney damage compared to the low dose(group C). Compared with group A,rats in the groups C and D showed lower level of 8-isoprostane,creatinine, interleukin-6(IL-6),and tumor necrosis factorα(TNF-α)in serum and malondialdehyde(MDA),3-nitrotyrosine(3-NT),and TNF-αand IL-6 mRNA in renal tissue in rats with paraquat poisoning,and group D showed the lowest mRNA level of inflammatory factor and oxidative stress. Con-clusion EGCG has protective effects on the kidney of rats with paraquat poisoning,and its mechanism may be related to the reduction of oxida-tive stress and inflammatory reaction in the kidney.
