Seventy C57BL/6 mice were divided into control group,lard group,lard transferred into safflower oil group,and safflower oil group.After 20 weeks,the white adipose tissues were taken to analyse the gene differentiational expression prolife.The results showed that body weight,blood glucose and lipids,and insulin levels in lard group were higher than those in control group( all P＜0.05 ),which were decreased after lard was transferred into safflower oil for 10 weeks( all P＜0.05 ).Safflower oil regulated some of the orexigenic genes,anorectic genes,and the genes involved in energy expenditure in adipose tissues such as opioid receptor,glucagon,and PPARα.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the changes of portal pressure gradient after selective devascularization with postoperative complications and recurrent bleeding of gastroesophageal varix in patients of portal hypertension. Methods The clinical data of 135 cases of portal hypertension undergoing selective devascularization was collected. Portal pressure gradient was measured before splenectomy and after selective devascularization, and was analyzed against postoperative complications and recurrent bleeding. Results In this study, 135 patients of portal hypertension underwent selective devascularization, two cases died during perioperative period ( 1.5% ). Postoperatively patients were divided into three groups based on PPG ＜ 12 mm Hg after selective devascularization (62 cases), HVPG ≥ 12 mm Hg but a more than 20% of decrease off the pre-splenectomy baseline (41 cases) and HVPG ≥12 mm Hg with less than 20% of decrease from the baseline (32 cases). The postoperative complications between the three groups were of no significant difference ( P ＞ 0. 05 ). The 1,2,3 year cumulative rate of no variceal rebleeding of the three groups were 100% vs. 100% vs. 95%; 100%vs. 97% vs. 90%; and 100% vs. 93% vs. 87% (x2 =6. 859, P = 0. 032). COX regression analysis indicated portal vein pressure gradient was an independent prognostic factor of variceal bleeding recurrence (P=0.002). 1,2,3 year cumulative survival rates of the three groups were 100% vs. 100% vs. 94%; 98% vs. 95% vs. 92%; 97% vs. 93% vs. 88%, there were no significant difference among the three groups ( x2 = 2. 917, P = 0. 233 ). Conclusions The decrease in the PPG after selective devascularization is a predictor for the risk of rebleeding but not for survival after selective devascularization.

Objective To explore the correlation between coagulation and coagulation suppresion system disorders of portal vein thrombosis in patients of portal hypertension undergoing splenectomy.Methods Clinical data of 33 patients with postoperative portal vein thrombosis were enrolled.The clotting and coagulation inhibitor in portal vein blood and peripheral blood was detected and analyzed.Results The Hb,APTT,FIB,factor Ⅶ,protein C,AT-Ⅲ,CD62P of portal vein blood and peripheral blood before the surgery and on postoperative day 1,day 7,day 14 were no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The WBC,PLT,PT,D-Dimer of in portal vein blood before surgery were (2.9 ± 1.4) × 109/L,(37.5 ± 20.7) × 109/L,(16.1 ± 2.9) seconds,(0.7 ± 0.3) μg/ml,which were significantly different from those on postop day 1 (13.7 ±4.4) × 109/L,(86.3 ±34.6) × 109/L,(6.9 ±5.7) seconds,(16.1 ±2.9) μg/ml; day 7 (10.7 ±4.3) × 109/L,(312.4 ±137.2) × 109/L,(14.4 ±2.9) seconds,(7.6 ±4.4) μg/ml and day 14 (7.7 ± 3.3) × 109/L,(486.3 ± 216.7) × 109/L,(14.4 ± 2.9) seconds,(5.5 ± 4.4) μg/ml (P ＜ 0.05).WBC,PLT,PT,D-Dimer in preop peripheral blood were (2.4 ±0.8) × 109/L,(44.4 ± 25.8) × 109/L,(16.3 ± 3.0) seconds,(0.6 ± 0.4) μg/ml,which were significantly different from those on postop day 1 (13.7 ± 5.7) × 109/L,(75.1 ± 29.3) × 109/L,(13.7 ± 2.6) seconds,(6.8 ± 5.3) μg/ml; day 7 (10.6 ± 4.8) × 109/L,(337.9 ± 141.3) × 109/L,(14.0 ± 2.1) seconds,(7.6 ± 5.5) μg/ml and day 14 (7.8 ±3.9) × 109/L,(504.9 ±237.4) × 109/L,(14.0 ±2.1) seconds,(5.4 ±4.9) μg/ml postoperative (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The cause of postsplenectomy portal vein thrombosis is multifactorial.The dysfunction of coagulation-coagulation suppression system was just one of the conditions conducive to portal vein thrombosis after splenectomy.

Objective To evaluate potential clinical risk factors for the development of early-onset myocardial damage following multiple trauma (MT), and to determine whether early-onset myocardial damage was caused by the combined effects of thoracic and systemic injury factors in MT patients.Methods A total of 231 patients with MT over the last 3 years were retrospectively reviewed. With myocardial damage being a dependent variable and other twenty factors being independent variables, univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were applied to investigate the risk factors for early-onset myocardial damage and to identify the association of thoracic and systemic risk factors with early-onset myocardial damage.Results Multivariable logistic regressions showed that acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ ) score ≥10, injury severity score (ISS) ≥ 25, shock index ≥ 2,coexisting chest trauma, abbreviated injury scale (AIS) of chest≥3, and hypoxia time ≥ 0.5 h were risk factors. The risk of earlyonset myocardial damage following MT obviously increased when thoracic and systemic injury risk factors were coexisting.Conclusion Our results indicated that thoracic injury combined with systemic injury increased the overall risk of early-onset myocardial damage following MT. Prospective validation of these findings in other clinical settings is warranted.

Objective To evalhate the protective effect of oral raloxifene on lung function after acute lung injury (ALI) in rats. Methods Thirty male adult Sprague-Dawley rats were used and divided into three groups: LPS raloxifene hydrochloric acid. group before secondary impact ( Group A, n = 10 ), LPS raloxifene hydrochloric acid group after secondary impact ( Group B, n = 10) and control group ( n = 10). All the rats were injected intraperitoneally with 5 mg/kg LPS. Raloxifene (30 mg/kg) was orally administered one hour before LPS injection and 14 hours after LPS injection in Groups A and B. The con-trol group remained free. All the animals were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbital so-dium at 40 mg/kg and the femoral artery was cannulated 16 hours after LPS injection to measure the mean arterial pressure (MAP). All the rats received a direct intratracheal injection of hydrochloric acid ( pH = 1.2, 0.5 ml/kg). Before injection of hydrochloric acid and at 0. 5,1.5 and 4 hours after injection of hy-drochloric acid, the blood gas was measured. Fifteen rats ( five from each group) underwent a micro posi-tron emission tomography ( [18F] FDG microPET) scan of the thorax four hours after hydrochloric acid in-stillation. Then, the lung tissue was collected for histopathological examination. Results The Group B showed better pulmonary gas exchange and more stable MAP compared to the control group. The [18F] fluorodeoxyglueose uptake and histological lung injury score were 9. 01 ± 1.58 and 12.6 ± 0.97 respec-tively in Group B, which were higher than 4. 67 ± 1.33 and 9. 01 ± 1.58 respectively in control group (P < 0. 01 ). Conclusions Raloxifene exerts significant protective effect on lung function after ALI. [18F] FDG microPET is a useful method to evaluate the inflammatory reaction during ALI.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of VAE and to assess the predictive value of VAE cough. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 461 consecutive patients who underwent DBS surgery at Beijing Tiantan Hospital. Patients with VAE manifestation were enrolled in this study. The clinical features, operative courses, post-operative conditions and treatment of these patients were analyzed. The correlation between intraoperative tremor intensity , cough duration and prognosis was also investigated. Results Among 461 patients,10 (2.2%) were found with evidence of VAE, including cough, dyspnea, decreased O2 saturation (SO2). Statistical analyses revealed that severe cough was associated with greater age , a longer coughing time, more intensive tremor, greater influence, and a longer length of stay (P < 0.05, rspectively). Conclusions Early recognition and prompt management of VAE are essential to prevent unfavorable consequences. Cough intensity might be a useful tool for evaluating VAE and its prognosis , which is helpful for neurosurgeons to decide on the subsequent maneuvers.

Objective To study the safety and efficacy of fast track program in anorectal surgery perioperative period. Methods One hundred and sixty-nine cases of rectal cancer were divided into the study group of 86 patients with fast track program, and the control group of 83 patients with traditional programs by random digits table. Both groups were compared from the time out of bed, the first intestinal discharge time,intravenous fluids stopping time,length of hospital stay,total cost of treatment and the incidence of postoperative complications. Results The study group compared with the control group: the first intestinal discharge time [(33.6 ± 12.9) h vs. (81.7 ± 20.1) h], intravenous fluids stopping time [(4.5 ±1.3) d vs.(7.4 ± 1.6) d],and length of hospital stay [(5.6 ± 1.2) d vs.(8.9 ±2.7) d],the total cost of treatment [(15 000 ± 3000) yuan vs. (16 000 ± 4000) yuan], the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01 or ＜ 0.05),and had less incidence of postoperative complications in study group than that in control group [5.8% (5/86) vs. 16.9% (14/83)], the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Fast track program in anorectal surgery perioperative period is safe and effective, beneficial,conducive to rehabilitation of patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of isoflurane on the levels of protein kinase A (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC) in hippocampus in rats. Methods Thirty-six 3-month-old male SD rats weighing 180-220 g were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 12 each): group Ⅰ underwent the cognitive function test without being pretreated with isoflurane inhalation (group C); group Ⅱ and Ⅲ inhaled 1.2% isoflurane for 4 h and underwent the cognitive function test 2 days and 2 weeks later respectively (group Ⅰso1,Iso2). Morris water maze was used to assess the cognitive function and the escape latency was recorded. The animals were killed immediately after the test.The hippocampus was isolated for determination of the expression and activities of PKA and PKC.Results The escape latency was significantly longer in group Ⅲ than in group Ⅰ.The expression of PKA and PKC was significantly down-regulated and the activities of PKA and PKC were significantly decreased in group Ⅱand Ⅲ as compared with group Ⅰ . There was no significant difference in the expression and activities of PKA and PKC between group Ⅱ and Ⅲ . Conclusion Four hour 1.2% isoflurane inhalation can decrease cognitive function by inhibiting the levels of PKA and PKC in hippocampus.

Objective To understand the epidemic status quo and influencing factors of Kashin-Beck disease among children in mountain areas of Jilin Province.Methods Two hundred eighty-two severe endemic areas in 18 counties were selected and stratified by random cluster sampling method,and the status quo of KashinBeck disease prevalence was investigated among 7-12 year-old children according to the Diagnostic Criteria of Kashin-Beck Disease (WS/T 207-2010).In the meantime,the annual household income and the proportion of economic crops replanted,grain out-sourced,and returning farmlands to forests and grass were surveyed in the disease affected areas.Results A total of 14 162 children were investigated who had no clinical symptoms.Among them,28 cases were detected positive using X-ray with a detection rate of 1.98‰,while most of the cases were metaphysis positive.The annual household income (≥5 000 Yuan vs.＜ 5 000 Yuan) in the year 2009-2011 had a significant impact on the incidence of Kashin-Beck disease (1.47‰ vs.3.67‰,x2 =6.179,P ＜ 0.05),while the areas of returning farmland to forests and grass which accounted ＞ 1％ had no significant influence on the incidence compared with that ≤ 1％ (3.30‰ vs.1.57‰,x2 =3.876,P ＞ 0.05);the areas of economic crops replanting which accounted ＞ 10％ had no significant influence on the incidence compared with that ≤ 10％ (3.07‰ vs.1.65‰,x2 =2.565,P ＞ 0.05);the proportion of grain out-sourcing which accounted ＞ 50％ had no significant influence on the incidence compared with that ≤50％ (3.07‰ vs.1.65‰,x2 =2.565,P ＞ 0.05).Conehision Up to 2012,the disease among 7-12 year-old children of the mountain areas of Jilin Province have basically met the standard of Kashin-Beck disease elimination and the situation remains stable;furthermore,the household income has a significant impact on the incidence of Kashin-Beck disease.

Objective To compare the recmrence and survival rate between small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)patients with and without folfox4 adjuvant chemotherapy after radical resection.Methods From April 2006 to October 2012 46 HCC eases after curative resection received folfox4 adjuvant chemotherapy, 51 cases served as control.Results The clinical and pathological data of the two groups were not significantly different.The 1, 2, 3, 4, 5-year disease-free survival of the group with folfox4 adjuvant chemotherapy was 89％ , 70％ , 59％ , 48％ , 35％ ,and that was 78％ , 65％ , 53％ , 37％ , 27％in control group, the difference was not statistically significant (P =0.459).The 1, 2, 3,4, 5-year overall survival rate of the group with folfox4 adjuvant chemotherapy was 96％ , 76％ , 63％ , 57％ , 52％ , that in control group was 96％ , 73％ , 59％ , 51％ , 47％ , the difference was not statistically significant (P =0.459).COX-hazards regression showed folfox4 adjuvant chemotherapy was not independent factors of recurrence and prognosis (P =0.467, P =0.834).Conclusions For patients with hepatocellular carcinoma smaller than 5 cm in diameter,folfox4 adjuvant chemotherapy after radical resection did not reduce the recurrence rate and did not improve survival.
