Objective To observe the time profile of the changes of mRNA of ? and ? subunit of acetylcholine receptor (AChR) in skeletal muscle and the level of calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) in spinal motoneuron after upper motoneuron injury. Method The spinal cord of adult male Wistar rats was transected on the lower thoracic segment. The spinal cords below the transection level and soleus muscles were sampled 0,1,2,4,7 and 14 days after surgery, respectively, to detect the levels of mRNA of ? and ? subunit of acetylcholine receptor in soleus muscle using Northern blot method,and CGRP level in spinal motoneuron using radioimmunoassay.Results The levels of mRNA of ? and ? subunit of acetylcholine receptor siginificantly increased after surgery, but the level of mRNA of ? subunit increased earlier and higher than ? subunit. The level of CGRP in spinal motoneuron markedly reduced after surgery, was maintained at 50 80% of normal level since the 2nd day after surgery. Conclusions The levels of AChR ? and ? subunit in skeletal muscle significantly increase after upper motoneuron injury, the expression of which CGRP may regulate.

Objective To assess the changes in coagulation induced by acute normovolemic hemodilution Methods Twenty ASA Ⅰ Ⅱ patients scheduled for elective surgery were divided into two groups: HES group and GEL group in which hydroxyethyl starch(HES) or succinylated gelatin (GEL) was used as the hemodilution fluid Patients with coagulation abnormalities or kidney dysfunction were excluded from the study Anesthesia was induced with propofol,fentanyl and vecuronium and maintained with inhalation of isoflurane and nitrous oxide and intermittent intravenous boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium The patients were mechanically ventilated and PaO 2 and PaCO 2 were maintained within normal range After induction blood was withdrawn from internal jugular vein and collected in standard blood bags containing anticoagulant and at the same time replaced with HES (equal volume) or GEL (1 5 times the volume of blood withdrawn) The amount of blood withdrawn was estimated from the following equation:blood volume withdrawn=body weight(kg)?60?(Hct 0 Hct 1)/Hct M,where Hct 0=patient′s initial Hct, Hct 1=desired end point Hct and Hct M=the average of Hct 0 and Hct 1 Blood routine,prothrombin time(PT),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT) and fibrinogen level were checked and thromboelastography(TEG) was performed 15 min before and after hemodilution Results The amount of blood withdrawn ranged between 1000 1100ml Hb was still above 80g/L after hemodilution The decreases in Hb and Hct were significant in both groups (P

PET-CT, SPECT, and SPECT-CT examinations could lead to inevitable medical exposure for patients, and the radiation dose of this examinations and whether it was harmful to patients have attracted attention from the public and professionals. At the same time, there was still a controversy about whether the biological effect of low dose radiation was useful to human body. The research investigates and reviews the radiation dose of PET-CT, SPECT, and SPECT-CT scans and their biological effects. Under achieved to the demands of clinical conditions, operators should try to reduce the radiation dose of PET-CT, SPECT, SPECT-CT scans for patients. Although PET-CT, SPECT, SPECT-CT scans deliver inevitable radiation, the dose of single examination will not lead to deterministic effect, and even the view of the random effect of linear no-threshold from these scans also have been questioned.

Objective To compare the clinical effect of two ways of the closed reduction internal fixation and open reduction internal fixation in the treatment of joint injury.Methods According to the digital table,84 patients with joint injury were randomly divided into control group and treatment group,42 cases in each group.The control group was given closed reduction and internal fixation,and the treatment group was given open reduction and internal fixation.Results The total time of operation,postoperative hospitalization time,postoperative joint function recovery time of the treatment group were (78.51 ±10.20)min,(13.35 ±2.46)d,(88.43 ±5.27)d,those of the control group were (118.73 ±25.71)min,(19.72 ±3.57)d,(107.42 ±10.33)d,the differences were statistically signifi-cant(t =9.424,9.522,10.613;P =0.000,0.000,0.000).The excellent and good rate of the treatment group was 90.48%,which was higher than 71.43% of the control group,the difference was statistically significant(χ2 =4.941, P =0.026).The treatment group had 1 case of adverse reaction,the control group had 8 cases of adverse reaction, there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(χ2 =6.098,P =0.014).After treatment,the VAS pain score in the treatment group was (2.11 ±0.68)points,which was lower than (4.98 ±1.35)points in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(t =12.305,P =0.000).Conclusion The application effect of closed reduction and internal fixation for patients with joint injury disease is very obvious.

Whole-body PET-CT scanning has been used in the diagnosis and treatment of tumor to providing functional and morphological imaging. As the most widely used semi-quantitative analysis index, the cutoff value of SUV would affect the final diagnosis, therapeutic regimen and prognosis estimation. Therefore, the article reviews the influential factors of SUV, its correction methods, its cutoff values of differential various tumors and the progress of SUV. Although there is no acknowledged cutoff value of SUV in tumor diagnosis, SUV is still an important semi-quantitative index, and its rational and prudent use would increase both of the sensitivity and specificity in tumor diagnosis.

BACKGROUND:There are more ways of internal fixation in treatment of elderly intertrochanteric fracture;however, how to choose a fixed way is the key issue of ensuring the efficacy. OBJECTIVE:To compare the therapeutic effect of proximal femoral anti-rotation intramedul ary nail and proximal femoral locking plate in the treatment of elderly femoral intertrochanteric fractures. METHODS:Total y 100 patients with femoral intertrochanteric fractures who received the treatment at Qionghai City People’s Hospital from December 2009 to December 2013 were randomly divided into locking plate and anti-rotation intramedul ary nail groups. Patients in the anti-rotation intramedul ary nail group underwent internal fixation using proximal femoral anti-rotation intramedul ary nail. Patients in the locking plate group underwent internal fixation using proximal femoral locking plate. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the locking plate group, the amount of bleeding, operation time, postoperative bed activity time and hospital stay in the anti-rotation intramedul ary nail group significantly reduced, the excel ent rate of Harris scores was significantly increased after 1 year of internal fixation and the incidence of complications and adverse reactions was significantly decreased. There was no host response to the material in these two groups.

Objective To study the complications and their management of plasmakinetic transurethral resection of the prostate (PKRP). Methods Complications and their management of 51 cases of PKRP from May 2003 to June 2006 were retrospectively reviewed. Results Complications of the procedure were as follows. Bladder spasms occurred in 27 cases (accompanying hemorrhage in 2 cases and urge incontinence in 6 cases), and the symptoms disappeared after patient-controlled intravenous analgesia and M-receptor blocker (tolterodine). Postoperative bleeding occurred in 6 cases. Continuous irrigation with normal saline and medical therapy were given in 3 cases, and open surgery was required in 3 cases with severe bleeding. All bleeding patients obtained a full recovery of voiding function without re-bleeding. Urge incontinence occurred in 13 cases, and was cured with functional exercises of pelvic floor muscles and M-receptor blocker (tolterodine) administration. Stress incontinence was observed in 1 case, and a penile clamp had been used to control incontinence. Among 7 cases of urinary retention after operation, a re-operation of PKRP was conducted in 2 cases and oral medication was carried out in 5. The voiding function recovered well in all the 7 cases. In 5 cases of urethral stricture, urethral dilatation was employed in 3 cases and urethrotomy was performed in 2 cases to obtain a good recovery of voiding function. Conclusions Bladder spasm, postoperative bleeding, incontinence, urinary retention, and urethral stricture are common complications of PKRP. Strict adherence to technique and timely and proper management of complications are considered essential to improve results.

AIM: To prepare a phase-specific drug delivery system with floating and pulsatile release of sinomenine hydrochloride and evaluate in vitro drug release behavior. METHODS: The floating and pulsatile-release of coat-core tablets were prepared by press-coated technics.The effects of factors influencing release characteristic of the drug were investigated by dissolution test,and to elucidate the mechanism of drug release of the tablets with erosion and water-uptake test. RESULTS: The tablets had typical floating and pulsatile release properties with a lag time rapid release.The lag-time was shortened with the increase of expansion ratio of tablet core and rotation speed of stirrer.The lag-time was prolonged with the increase of pH and ionic strength of dissolution media. CONCLUSION: The tablet could float and rapidly release drug at the predetermined time.
