Objective:To investigate the effect of adiponectin on enzymatic activity of glucokinase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in cultured rat's liver cells.Methods:The BRL was used as cell model.The rat liver cells were incubated with adiponectin of three different concentrations (10?g/ml,30?g/ml and 50?g/ml).Controlled cells were incubated without adiponectin.Enzymatic activity of GK was investigated by using a standard G6P-coupled assay.Enzymatical activity of PEPCK was assessed by using a standard LDH-coupled assay.Results:Compared with the control group,treated group with adiponectin of all concentrations for 24h had no significant effect on enzymatic activity of glucokinase.Enzymatic activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase was significantly decreased even in the lowest concentration of adiponectin,and along with increased in adiponectin concentration enzymatic activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase decreased more significantly.Conclusion:Adiponectin has no significant effect on ezymatic activity of glucokinase.However adiponectin decreases enzymatic activity of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase significantly.Through this effect,adiponectin decreases liver glucose production and improves insulin resistance.

Objective To summarize anesthetic management for 56 patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG). Methods Recorded and analyzed the hemodynamie changes of 56 patients undergoing OPCABG including heart rate (HR),rate-pressure product (RPP), mean arterial pressure(MAP), mean pulmonary artery pressure(MPAP), central venous pressure (CVP), cardiac output (CO) and mixed venous oxygen saturation when left anterior descending (LAD), right coronary artery (RCA), diagonal (DiAG) and left circumflex coronary artery (LCX) was anastmosed. Results The patients undergoing OPCABG had hemodynamic fluctuation during vascular anastomosis, mainly showing MAP and CO decreased, CVP increased. The change was especially significant when the LCX or RCX was anastmosed. The based value, when LAD and RCA anastmosed of MAP were (82.0±11.7) mm Hg(1 mm Hg = 0.133 kPa), (60.1±11.5) mm Hg and (58.4±12.1) mm Hg, CO were (4.2±1.2) L/min, (3.1±0.7) L/min and (3.2±0.6) L/min, CVP were (5.6±2.6) cm H2O (1 cm H2O=0.098 kPa), (9.6±4.4) cm H2O and (9.2±3.6) cm H2O. Conclusion The hemodynamie changes during OPCABG,especially in LCX and RCA anastmesed are transient and well tolerated under suitable anesthetic management.

Objective To discuss causes and prevention of complications and recurrence following sphincter preserving procedure(SPP) for rectal cancer.Methods A retrospective study on clinical and follow-up data of 375 cases of rectal cancer treated by SPP from January 2000 to January 2006 was carried out.Factors relating complications and recurrence after the operation were analyzed with the Logistic regression.Results A follow-up was conducted for 1～60 months(mean,37 months).The 5-year survival rate was 75.77%,and 79 cases of those followed died.Postoperative complications included anastomotic leakage in 14 cases(3.73%),anastomotic stenosis in 37 cases(9.87%),and anastomotic bleeding in 13 cases(3.47%).Anastomotic tumor recurrence was seen in 25 cases.Logistic regression analysis showed that the distance between the tumor and the dentate line was the most important factor for postoperative complications(P=0.017),and the distance and patient's age were the most important factors for recurrence(P=0.040,P=0.041). Conclusions The distance of tumor and patient's age are the most important factors for complications and recurrence following sphincter preserving procedure for rectal cancer.Strict selection of patients for surgery,normative procedure performance,and proper peri-operative management are essential for the prevention of complications and recurrence.

BACKGROUND:There are two ways to treat the enamel before bracket bonding: etching and sandblasting, but the few studies focus on the direct use of sandblasting technology on untreated enamel surface.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the damage of etchingversus sandblasting to the enamel surface, and to compare the bonding strength of metal brackets adhesive to isolated teeth with these two kinds of surface treatments.
METHODS:(1) Nine premolar teeth removed for orthodontic treatment were randomized into three groups: sandblasting, acid etching and polishing treatment groups. Surface roughening effects of these three kinds of treatments were observed under scanning electron microscope. (1) Another 40 premolar teeth removed for orthodontic treatment were randomized into two groups: sandblasting and acid etching groups. At 24 hours after bracket bonding, the shear strength was detected using mechanical testing machine, and the adhesive residue index of tooth surface was statisticaly calculated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Under the scanning electron microscope, polishing treatment had no damage to the enamel surface; but in the other two groups, the enamel surface was damaged to varying degrees, especialy in the sandblasting group. (2) The bonding strength in the sandblasting group was significantly higher than that in the acid etching group (P < 0.05), but there was no difference in the adhesive residue index of tooth surface between the two groups (P > 0.05). These findings indicate that compared with the acid etching technology, the sandblasting technology can increase the bonding strength between the enamel and metal bracket, but it also results in more damage.

The association of serum adiponectin concentration with coronary heart disease (CHD) in Chinese Han population was evaluated.
