To study the effect of ischemic preconditioning(IP) on the expression of HSP 70 mRNA in postischemic spinal cord of rabbits, the spinal cord ischemic model was established by inflating the balloon of a 4F Swan Ganz catheter positioned in the abdominal aorta of the rabbits. The rabbits were divided into sham operated group, ischemic group and IP group. The expression of HSP 70 mRNA in postischemic spinal cord was observed by using the method of RT PCR at 4 hours, 2 days and 5 days after spinal cord ischemia respectively. No expression of HSPs 70 mRNA was found in sham operative group. Compared with ischemic group,the expression of HSP 70 mRNA in spinal cord of IP group was strengthened( P

The public ethics consciousness,with medical ethics included,fundamentally depends on the gradual improvement in the self-identity of human as objective itself.However,the improvement of humanistic consciousness is a long and painful process.Former recognition of historical culture,including the humanistic ideal in traditional Chinese ethical thoughts and systemic rational thoughts in modern western society,mainly employs transcendental test of abstract anthroposophy as its cultural premise,superficially enhancing certain individuals and their thoughts,motives,and objectives to historical ontology,but actually resulting in the absence of human individuals in realistic history.The self-conscious improvement of human-oriented public ethics can only be realized by the subjective humanistic consciousness which undergoes the regression from axiology,epistemology,to existence theory,making human realize that they themselves are the utmost purpose of all values and significances.

BACKGROUND: Low power laser irradiation has positive effects on fracture healing, including shortening the time of bone union and enhancement of bone formation. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of different wave lengths in low power laser on eedy fracture healing. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Randomized, controlled, animal experiment. The study was performed at the Laser Center of Dankook University Medical Center between May 2005 and May 2006. MATERIALS: A total of 60 female English Hartley guinea pigs, 9 weeks old, weighing (300~30) g, were used for this experiment. They were randomly divided into three groups control, 632, and 830 nm groups (n=20). METHODS: The right femoral middle shaft fractures were made with a bone cutter and fixed with intramedullary nails (1.4 mm diameter K-wire). The frequencies of 632 nm and 830 nm semi-conductor laser machines were used. The laser irradiations were started 48 hours after operation vertically at the fracture sites and were applied every two days, at 100 J/cm<'2> of the same irradiation doses and 2.52 cm<'2> of the same irradiation areas in different irradiation groups. Finally, 46 guinea pigs survived, including 14 in control group, 16 in 632 nm group and 16 in 830 nm group. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Guinea pigs were sacdficed at 3 and 6 weeks separately. The bone healing was assessed by the Modified Zorlu Scoring System, including gross, radiologic and histologic examinations. RESULTS: In the gross and radiologic findings, both 632 nm and 830 nm irradiation groups shown a significantly greater rate of callus formation at postoperatively 3 weeks compared to the control group (P< 0.01). Quantity of callus formation in 830 nm group was more than 632 nm group, but there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). The result of histological findings showed a significant increase of osteoblastic proliferation in two irradiation groups than the control group at 3 weeks postoperatively (P < 0.01). Enhancement of osteoblastic proliferation was more obvious in 830 nm group than in 632 nm group at 3 and 6 weeks, but there was no significant difference (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: Both 632 nm and 830 nm wave lengths are considered to be optimal irradiation wave lengths for eady fracture healing. Moreover, 830 nm irradiation is better than 632 nm irradiation for eady fracture healing.
7.Evaluation of Left Atrial Function Changes in Peripartum Cardiomyopathy Using Two-dimensional Speckle Tracking Imaging
Journal of China Medical University 2015;(7):581-584
Objective To evaluate the changes of left atrial(LA)function in peripartum cardiomyopathy(PPCM)patients using two?dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography(2DSTE). Methods Totally 35 PPCM patients and 35 healthy postpartum women(control group)were en?rolled in this study. Left ventricular end?diastolic diameter(LVEDd)and LA anteroposterior dimension(LAAD)were measured. The end?diastol?ic volume(EDV)and end?systolic volume(ESV)were obtained using biplane modified Simpson′s method. Cardiac output(CO)and left ventricu?lar ejection fraction(LVEF)were also calculated. E wave and A wave of mitral valve were measured,and correspondingly E/A ratio were obtained. LA longitudinal systolic strain(SS),systolic strain rate(s?SR),early diastolic strain rate(e?SR),and late diastolic strain rate(a?SR)were ob?tained by 2DSTE. Results There was no statistical difference of E wave between the two groups(P>0.05). Compared to the normal control group, LVEDd,EDV,ESV,LAAD,E/A were increased,while CO,LVEF,A,SS,s?SR,e?SR,a?SR were decreased in the PPCM group(P<0.05). a?SR was positively correlated with A wave in patients with PPCM(r=0.775,P=0.001). Conclusion LA reservoir,conduit and booster pump func?tion were decreased during PPCM. 2DSTE can easily and accurately assess these changes of LA function.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of acupoints stimulation with silver spike point therapy on insomnia.Methods60 patients with insomnia were randomly divided into the trial group and control group with 30 cases in each group. Patients of the trial group were treated by acupoints stimulation with silver spike point therapy and patients of control group were treated only with Clonopin. All patients of two groups were tested with Self-Rating Scale of Sleep (SRSS) before and after treatment.ResultsThe curative effect rate of the trial group was 86.6%; that of the control group was 60%; the curative effect of the trial group was superior to the control group (P<0.05). SRSS difference of the trial group pre-and post-treatment was 12.79±3.20; that of the control group was 10.1±3.89. There was also a significant difference between two groups (P<0.01).ConclusionThe silver spike point therapy has the better curative effect on insomnia than Clonopin.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of interventional occlusion with thin waist occluder for perimembranous ventricular septal defect with pseudoaneurysm. Methods During the period from March 2008 to March 2013 at Shanghai Yodak Cardiothoracic Hospital , interventional occlusion with thin waist occluder was carried out in a total of 96 patients with perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) complicated by pseudoaneurysm. The patient’s age varied from 2 years to 36 years. Before the procedure, routine left ventricular angiography and ascending aortic angiography were carried out. Left ventricular angiography and ascending aortic angiography as well as the transthoracic ultrasonography were performed immediately after the procedure to observe the therapeutic results. Follow-up checkups with transthoracic ultrasonography, EKG and chest X-ray film were conducted at one week as well as at one, 3, 6 and 9 months after the surgery were conducted. Results Successful occlusion of VSD was obtained in 93 patients, with a success rate of 96.8% (93/96). After the surgery, small amount of shunt flow was detected in 8 patients, which disappeared within 48 hours in 7 patients, and in the other one the shunt flow disappeared one month later which was confirmed by follow-up examination. After the treatment, complete right bundle branch block occurred in 4 patients, complete left bundle branch block in 5 patients, and transientⅢdegree atrioventricular block in one patient. The conduction block disappeared at the time of discharge in all patients. The left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) decreased from preoperative (47.5 ± 5.2) mm to postoperative (45.2 ± 5.1) mm, the difference was statistically significant (t = 18.33, P < 0.01). During the follow-up period lasting for 9 months, no delayed cardiac arrhythmia, valve damage or sudden death occurred. Conclusion For the treatment of perimembranous ventricular septal defect with pseudoaneurysm, interventional occlusion with thin waist occluder is safe and effective with excellent mid-term effect. Based on the imaging findings, including the location, shape, ruptured orifice, number of the perimembranous pseudoaneurysm as well as the distance between the pseudoaneurysm and the aortic valve, to select suitable occluder and proper occlusion site is the key to ensure a successful surgery.
