Objective: To study the effect of immune regulation of the rat Sertoli cells in testis infection. Methods: UU and Escherichia coh'(E coli) were injected into the bladders of rats, which mimics the ascending infection pathway, while using culture medium injection as control. After 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks respectively, the rats were sacrificed to observe the pathological changes in testis section. Sertoli cells were separated and obtained from rat testis, then experiments were designed to use the immunohistochemical staining to examine the different level of IL-1, IL-6, TGF-P and FasL among control ,UU and E coli infected groups.Results:Compared with control, in UU and E.coli infected group, the level of IL-1 increased ,the level of IL-6 decreased, the levels of TGF-P and FasL increased. Conclusion: Sertoli cell can play the role of immune regulation, with the expressing changes of IL-1, IL-6, TGF-P and FasL in the infection of testis in rat.

Objective To determine the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in brain after cerebral hypoxia / reoxygenation and the effects of preoxygenation with different concentrations of oxygen in rats.Methods Seventy-two male Wistar rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly divided into 4 groups : group Ⅰ, Ⅱ ,Ⅲ ,and Ⅳ . Each group was further divided into 3 subgroups : a, b, c. Group Ⅰ a, Ⅱ a, Ⅲ a and Ⅳa were preoxygenated with 21 % O2 (Ⅰa), 50 % O2 (Ⅱ a) , 75 % O2 (Ⅲa) and 95 % O2 (Ⅳ a) for 30 min. GroupⅠ b-Ⅳb were subjected to hypoxia (5 % O2 ) for 20 min after preoxygenation. Group Ⅰc-Ⅳc were reoxygenation (98 % O2) for 20 min after preoxygenation and hypoxia. The animals were sacrificed 48 h after the experiment. Brains were immediately removed for microscopic examination and determination of iNOS expression in brain using immuno-histochemistry technique. Results The number of iNOS positive cells was significantly greater in hypoxia groups than that in preoxygenation groups ( P

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of administration of ampicillin/sulbactam and imipenem/cilastatin in treatment of aspiration pneumonia in aged patients. Methods 26 aged patients was treated with aspira-tion pneumonia (2.25～3.00 g) through vessel injection twice perday,and another 26 patients was treated with imi-penem/cilastatin (0.5 g) through vessile injection every 6～8 hours. We evaluated the efficacy through assessing the temperature,the chest radiography,WBC and CRP,incidence of side effects,the time to cure and the clearance of bacteria. Results The cure rate was 84.6% (22/26) and 92.3% (24/26),respectively (χ2=0.19,P=0.66). The time to cure was 8.2±2.8 days and 7.5±1.6 days for the groups (t=1.107,P=0.274). Gastrointestinal side effects were observed in the group of ampicillin/sulbactarn;slight abnormality of liver function occurred in the group of imipenem/cilastatin ;all above adverse effects in two groups were rapidly and completely disappeared after therapy stopped. Conclusion Both ampicillin/sulbactam and imipenem/cilastatin are effective antibiotics to treat aspiration pneumonia in aged patients.

Objective To investigate the influence of respiratory motion on target dose distribution in three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy(3DCRT) and intensity modulated radiation therapy(IM-RT). Methods A 2D air vented ionization chamber array MatriXX system,a platform which can mimic the clip motion of lung tumor, and a home-made solid water(RW3) phantom were used to measure the 2D dose distribution of static and moving targets irradiated by 3DCRT and IMRT beams using multiple gantry an-gles. The period of the moving platform was set to 3.5 s and the amplitude was ± 1 cm. Then the differences of dose distribution between the static phantom and moving phantom were compared and analyzed with the MatriXX system software. Results Compared with the static phantom in 3DCRT, the penumbra of dose distribution of the periodic moving phantom along the moving directions was increased by 6-9 mm, the high dose area was shrinked by about 5 ram,and the low dose area was extended by 5 mm,but the area of 50% i-sodose and the dose center area changed very little. When a single segment beam of IMRT was delivered and measured and the maximum dose of measuring plane was normalized to 100% ,the average difference of dose distribution between the static and dynamic phantoms was ±27% (from -56.4% to 56.1%) ;When all of the segment beams of IMRT were dehvered and the integrated dose distribution was measured ,the dose differ-ences were less than ±3% ,and the maximum difference of dose distribution was about ±15% which mainly appeared at the field margin and were similar to 3DCRT. Conclusions The dose distribution of most cen-ter areas of the periodic moving target using multi-fraction 3DCRT/IMRT beams is similar to that of the static target, while the high dose area of the former is shrinked and the low dose area is extended.
