Objective To observe whether the animal model of optic nerve injury in rats can be set up by fluid percussion brain injury device (FPI) or not.Methods Seventy-one healthy female Wister rats were randomly divided into 2 groups,inlcuding model group with 66 rats and control group with 5 rats.The rats in model group were randomly divided into 3 groups.Eight rats in group 1 were examined by flash-visual evoked potential (F-VEP) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examines before and 1,3 days,1,2,4,6,and 8 weeks after injury;56 rats in group 2 were randomly divided into 7 subgroups with 8 rats in each subgroup,and were detected by histopathologieal and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) apoptosis examines 1,3 days,1,2,4,6,8 weeks after injury;2 rats in group 3 were examined by electron microscopy 4 and 8 weeks aher injury.According to the degree of injury,the injured eyes were divided into 2 groups including severe injury group with the beat pressure of (699.14±60.79) kPa and mild injury group with the beat pressure of (243.18±20.26) kPa.The right and left eyes in rats in each group were in severe and mild injury group,respectively.Results One day after injury,the latency duration of F-VEP prolonged in severe injury group,wich differed much form which in the normal control group (P<0.05);the amplitude was gradually reduced during the first 2 weeks after injury and kept steady after that (P>0.05).The latency duration prolonged in mild injury group,and its difference with the normal control group was statistically significant (P<0.05);the amplitude was gradually reduced during the first 4 weeks after injury and kept steady after that (P>0.05).The abnormal high signal could be seen on optic nerve 1 day after injury,and was still obvious 8 weeks later.The results of histopathological examination showed ruptured capillary in ganglion cell layer 1 day after injury;retinal ganglion ceils without nucleus could be seen 4 weeks after injury.The apoptosis of positive cells was found in each layer of the retina 3 days after injury.TUNEL results indicated that the number of apoptotic positive cells increased significantly 1-2 weeks after injury.Conclusion An animal model of optic nerve injury can be successfully set up using FPI in rats.

BACKGROUND:Many animal experiments and clinical observation proved that dispeling turbid phlegm herb has good adjustment function on serum lipid, lipoprotein and liver lipid. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of dispeling turbid phlegm herb on monocyte chemotactic factor-1, C-reactive protein and serum lipids in rabbits with dietary atherosclerosis. METHODS: A total of 50 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into five groups. Rabbits in the blank control group were fed with basic feed, and simultaneously intragastricaly administrated physiological saline 10 mL/kg per day, for 10 consecutive weeks. Rabbits in the model group were given high-fat diet to prepare atherosclerosis models, and simultaneously intragastricaly administrated physiological saline 10 mL/kg per day, for 10 consecutive weeks. Rabbits in the phlegm turbidity treatment group were given high-fat diet to prepare atherosclerosis models, and simultaneously intragastricaly administrated dispeling turbid phlegm herb 10 mL/kg per day, for 10 consecutive weeks. Rabbits in theXuezhikang group were given high-fat diet to prepare atherosclerosis models, and simultaneously administratedXuezhikang 10 mL/kg per day, for 10 consecutive days. Rabbits in the phlegm turbidity treatment group were given high-fat diet for 10 weeks to prepare atherosclerosis models, and intragastricaly administered physiological saline 10 mL/kg per day for 6 weeks, and then given dispeling turbid phlegm herb 10 mL/kg per day for 4 weeks. At 10 weeks, serum lipid, C-reactive protein, and monocyte chemokine 1 mRNA expressions were detected, and pathological observation of the aorta was performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Xuezhikang and dispeling turbid phlegm herb could decrease serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, high density lipid protein cholesterol, C-reactive protein and monocyte chemokine 1 mRNA expression level, and apparently inhibited atherosclerotic changes. The preventive effect of dispeling turbid phlegm herb was better that its therapeutic effect.

Objective To enhance engraftment by infusing two partially matched cord blood (CB) units from unrelated donors simultaneously. Methods Two patients with high-risk leukemia(1 case of ALL and 1 case of CML-BC) received total body irradiation with antithymocyte globulin (ATG) and then were transplanted with two HLA-mismatched CB units from unrelated donors. A combination of cyclosporine A, methylprednisonelone and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) was administered for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. Results Two patients were all engrafted and the time to neutrophil≥ 0.5 ?10 9/L and platelet≥20?10 9/L were 21, 22 days and 51, 28 days post-transplant respectively, and DNA analysis showed only one donor DNA was detectable after engraftment. There was no serious GVHD. And these 2 patients are still alive and disease free for more than 34 and 30 months repectively. Conclusion Double units cord blood from unrelated donors can restore hematopoiesis and is suitable in adults without bone marrow donors.

Objective To evaluate the barium meal radiography and CT scans in diagnosing malignant gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) of small intestine. Methods The clinical and imaging data of 16 patients with GISTs of small intestine which were diagnosed surgically and pathologically were analyzed and summarized. In this group CT scan and gastrointestinal barium exam(GI) was performed. Results The tumors included 6 low-malignant GISTs of small intestine and 10 high-malignants. The diameter varied from 3.2 cm to 7.2 cm, the average size was 5.6 cm. The main signs of barium meal of malignant GIST of small intestine included flattened or destroyed mucosa runae, partial lumen stenosis, and barium fleck and fistula in the tumor. On CT scans, the main manifestation was an extraluminal mass with multiple necrosis areas of low density. Conclusion Barium examination and helical CT scan are the major imaging techniques in the determination of the location of GIST of small intestine. The appearance of imperfect lumen and the irregular tumor with multiulcerations or low density regions and inhomoneneous enhancement may lead to the correct diagnosis of malignant GIST.

Objective To explore the risk factors and outcome of stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) in emergency ward. Methods The baseline characteristics and laboratory data of 306 patients with stroke in emergency ward of our hospital from April, 2014 to December, 2016 were reviewed. Patients were allocated into SAP group (n=120) and non-SAP group (n=186). The multivariable Logistic regression was applied to investigate risk factors for the progression and death of SAP. Results Totally, 120 (39.2%) patients developed SAP, in which 34 (28.3%) cases died. There were significant differences in age, the scores of Glasgow Coma Score (GCS), Sequential Organ Failure As-sessment (SOFA) and National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), and mechanical ventilation, dysphagia, antiacid and tube feeding (P<0.05). The multivariable Logistic regression analysis revealed that age over 65 years, hypertension, GCS<9, NIHSS, dysphagia and anti-acid were the risk factors for the development of SAP;the SOFA, NIHSS>15 and mechanical ventilation were the risk factors for 30-day mortality in SAP group. Conclusion SAP is a severe complication of stroke, it is associated with a variety of risk factors that affect its out-come in emergency ward.
