Aim To investigate the effects of EDT on anoxia and ischemic injury in cultured PC12 cells. Methods Cultured PC12 cells were treated with 1 mmol?L -1 Na 2S 2O 4 and 20 mmol?L -1 NaCN in combination with glucose deprivation. The protective effects of EDT on these two models were evaluated by lactate dehydrogenate (LDH) efflux assay and colormetric MTT assay.ResultsEDT, within the range of 10 -8～ 10 -6 mol?L -1, significantly antagonized LDH efflux induced by two models and increased the optical density at 570 nm tested by colorimetric MTT assay in concentration-dependent manner. 10 -6 mol?L -1 EDT might time-dependently inhibit two injuries and reach maximal level at 48 h. Conclusion EDT can protect PC12 cells from anoxia and ischemic injury.

Fungal enteritis was rarely reported.A case of fungal enteritis manifestation with jejunum multiple ulcers and obstruction was treated by Department of Gastroenterology,Third Xiangya Hospital,Central South University.After antifungal treatment,the clinical symptoms were relieved,and the ulcers in jejunal and upper gastrointestinal tract were healed completely.Clinical manifestation for small fungal enteritis is special,and the small intestine ulcer is easily to be misdiagnosed.It is helpful to prevent the misdiagnose for small fungal enteritis if we can tell the clinical features for this disease.

AlM:To evaluate the value of color Doppler ultrasound in the diagnosis of traumatic retinal detachment.
METHODS: All 50 cases ( 56 eyes ) of suspicious traumatic retinal detachment from January to June in 2013 were enrolled in this study. All first received the two-dimensional ultrasound, then the color Doppler ultrasound, finally, these results were compared with the results of surgery.
RESULTS: All 56 eyes were observed intravitreal abnormal spots by the two-dimensional ultrasound, and 39 eyes were observed color blood signal by the color Doppler ultrasound. Forty eyes were approved retinal detachment by surgery.
CONCLUSlON: lt is better to display the intravitreal abnormal spots and color blood signal by the color Doppler ultrasound than by the two - dimensional ultrasound, so there is important clinical significance of the color Doppler ultrasound in the diagnosis of traumatic retinal detachment.

The rate of complete surgical resection is still low in hilar cholangiocarcinoma,which greatly affects the curative effect.Radiotherapy,one kind of treatment for tumors,has not been widely adopted in the past years.In recent years,with the development of radiotherapy technology,research of treating hilar cholangiocarcinoma through radiotherapy has become a spot.Many studies have shown that radiotherapy,as an adjuvant therapy for surgery and non-surgical treatment,can be the major means for treatment,and it could bring benefit for patients' survival extension and improvement of life quality.

MicroRNA(miRNA) is a class of non-coding RNA that plays an important role in gene expression and controlling. In recent years,the role of miRNA in the development of the disease has aroused great interest. Abnormal osteoclastogenesis and persistent inflammatory response induced by wear particles or osteoblast differentiation and maturation is the main cause of aseptic loosening in joint replacements. New researches shows that persistent inflammatory response, osteoclastogenesis and osteoblast differentiation are closely associated with miRNA, suggesting that there are certain relations between miRNA and aseptic loosening of prostheses. Additionally, the alteration of the expression levels of some miRNA may be curative for aseptic loosening. With the findings of the new miRNA targets, the important role of miRNA is further confirmed.

Objective To explore the imaging characteristics and the diagnostic value of primary ureter cancer.Methods 24 cases of primary ureter carcinoma underwent ultrasound(US), intravenous pyelography(IVP),retrograde pyelography and CT scan.Those imaging features were analyzed retrospectively.Results The postive rate of US,IVP,retrograde pyelography and CT was 45.8%(11/24),37.5%(9/24),88.8%(16/18)and 62.5%(10/16).Conclusion Ultrasound(US) is a more value examination for making the choice of cases; IVP is an essential method for understood function of the kidneys, showing carcinoma; retrograde pyelography is most value in the diagnosis of primary ureter carcinoma;CT scan is more important diagnostic values in area,properties and extent of tumor.

Objective To evaluate the value of 320 row CT upper abdominal computed tomography angiography (CTA) in the follow up of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPSS) .Methods 21 cases after TIPSS therapy underwent upper ab-dominal CTA .Post-processing images ,including MPR ,VR ,MIP ,and CPR ,were used to determine the position and patency of the stent .The best images of the portal veins were obtained .Results Among the 21 cases ,CPR image clearly demonstrated endovascu-lar stent thrombosis in 3 cases(14 .29% ) with stent occlusion and 1 case(4 .76% ) with stent stenosis ;there were no stent stenosis or occlusion in 17 cases(80 .95% ) ,their CPR image showed the contrast agent was filled completely in the stent and no low-density thrombosis was found .The best phase of the portal vein was 45 s .Conclusion 320 row CT upper abdominal CTA can clearly dis-play the stent position and patency situation in patients ,therefore ,should be regarded as the first choice for the follow-up of patients after TIPSS therapy .

Objective:To study the expression of caspase-3 and free radical injury in hypoxic-ischemic brain damage ( HIBD) of neonatal rats.Methods:All seven-day-old Wistar rats were randomly divided into HIBD group and sham operation group.Brains was obtained at time of 6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h,96 h after HIBD.Neuronal cell apoptosis was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling ( TUNEL).The expression level of caspase-3 protein was detected by immunohisto-chemistry.The level of malondialdehyde ( MDA) and supemxide dismutase ( SOD) were measured by thiobarbitic acid colorimetry and xanthin oxidase,respectively.Results:The number of neuronal cell apoptosis and the expression of caspase-3 protein began to increase at 6 h and reached the peak at 48 h in HIBD group,they were both significantly higher than those in the sham operation group at each time point (P<0.05).The level of MDA began to increase at 6 h and reached the peak at 24 h in HIBD group,it was significantly higher than the sham operation group at each time point (P<0.05).The level of SOD began to decrease at 6 h and reached the lowest level at 24 h in HIBD group,it was significantly lower than the sham operation group at each time point ( P<0.05 ) .The number of neuronal cell apoptosis and the expression of caspase-3 protein were positively correlated with the level of MDA, but they were negatively correlated with the level of SOD.Conclusion: Free radical injury promotes the expression of caspase-3 and neuronal cell apoptosis in HIBD.

Objective To investigate the role and mechanism of resveratrol in a rat model of complex region-al pain syndrome type Ⅰ(CRPS1). Methods 50 male SD rats were divided into control group(group A),sham operation group(group B),model group 1(group C),model group 2(group D),and model group 3(group E). Groups A,B and C received 5%DMSO;group D received ISO-1 of 1 mg/(kg·d);and group E received resveratrol of 20 mg/(kg · d)for 14 days. Pain behaviors were assessed on days 0,7,and 14. Serum levels of MIF and TNF-αwere detected by ELISA. MIF ,total ERK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 in sciatic nerve were detected by Western blot. Re-sults On days 7 and 14 after treatment,resveratrol injection,similar to ISO-1,significantly improved the pain threshold;serum levels of MIF and TNF-α were significantly decreased;expressions of MIF ,total ERK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 in sciatic nerve were also decreased significantly in group E,which were significantly lower than group C (P < 0.05). Conclusions Resveratrol can significantly improve pain threshold ,decrease expressions of MIF and p-ERK1/2 in a rat model of CRPS1,which might be involved in the inhibition of ERK signaling pathway.
