Chinese Journal of Applied Physiology 2013;29(6):538-542
OBJECTIVETo study the changes of cardiovascular regulating factors in rats during recovery of aerobic exhaustive exercise.
METHODSSixty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group, 1 h-exercise group, 3 h-exercise group, exhausted group, 2 h-recovery group and 12 h-recovery group. The rats were killed at corresponding times for each group after an 8-week-long treadmill training, and the levels of NO, ET, ANP and TXB2 in plasma were measured in each group.
RESULTSNO/ET ratio of 1 h-exercise group was significantly higher than that in control group (P < 0.01), while it was significantly decreased in 3 h-exercise group and exhausted group (P < 0.05). ANP contents in rat plasma were significantly higher in 3 h-exercise group, exhausted group and 2 h-recovery group than that in control group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). The concentration of TXB2 in plasma was significantly increased in 3 h-exercise group, exhausted group and 2 h-recovery group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONChanges in cardiovascular regulating factors after exhaustive exercise may lead to deficiency of coronary circulation blood/oxygen supply, which may cause exercise-induced fatigue.

Obiective To solve the problem of charge evasion in medical equipment and improve the management of medical equipment and increase income of the hospital.Methods The control system was designed and used based onembedded system as real-time monitor in the medical equipment. Results This system can realize the real-time monitor of the medical equipment and improve the management of hospital. Conclusion The system resolves the problem of charge evasion effectually and increases the income of the hospital.

Objective To explore the treatment effect and mechanism of A-NK cells on the subcutaneous trans?planted tumor of oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma in nude mice through observing the external growth and hyperplasia of A-NK cells and to provide theoretical evidence for squamous cell carcinoma treatment. Methods A-NK cells and NA-NK cells were both derived from healthy human peripheral blood and cultured in vitro. Cell growth was observed under micro?scope. The squamous cell carcinoma model in nude mice was established through subcutaneous implanting of Tca8113 cells. Then they were randomly assigned into three groups who were injected with either saline solution, or A-NK cells or NA-NK cells paraneoplastically. All animals were sacrificed after 33 days when tumor were isolated then weight and change in tumor size were assessed. Finally curve of tumor growth was drawn. Results Under the microscope, the proliferation of A-NK cells peak in 15 days and NA-NK cells peak in 12 days. After 3 weeks, the number of A-NK cells increased by 39.33 times while the number of NA-NK cells increased by 16.33 times. The Volume of tongue squamous cell carcinoma in saline solu?tion group was larger than that in A-NK cells and NA-NK cells groups, and volume in the NA-NK cells group was larger than that in A-NK cells group. The volume of tongue neoplasms in different groups, time, and interaction effects are statisti?cally significant (P<0.01). The tongue neoplasms weight in the saline solution group was greater than that in the A-NK cells and NA-NK cells group, and the weight in NA-NK cells group was greater than that in A-NK cells group, and the difference are statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion A-NK cells and NA-NK cells can significantly inhibit the subcutane?ous transplanted tumors in nude mice and the anti tumor effect of A-NK group is stronger than NA-NK.

Objective To investigate the image quality differences of clinical conventional contrast injection solutions and personalized injection program in 64 -slice spiral coronary CT angiography (CTA),thus to obtain the CTA optimum contrast agent injection protocol.Methods 64 patients who needed to receive CTA angiography,were randomly divided into observation group and control group,32 cases in each group.The control group underwent rou-tine clinical angiography contrast agent injection protocol,the observation group received personalized contrast injec-tion solutions,the image difference of the two groups was compared.Results Compared with the control group,the right ventricular (RV)and pulmonary CT value of the observation group increased significantly[(272.4 ±72.3)HU, (372.1 ±78.2)HU],the differences were statistically significant (t =3.827,3.921,all P <0.05).CT values of left ventricular (LV),ascending /descending aorta had no significant differences between the two groups (P >0.05). Compared with the control group,the advantages of septal imaging of the observation group was significant (control group 3 points in 20 cases,29 cases of the observation group),the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =16.023,P <0.05).Conclusion In CTA angiography,personalized contrast injection speed can effectively improve the enhancement degree of right heart,so that the right ventricular septal has clearer image,provides a great conven-ience for clinical diagnosis and prognosis,it is worth further clinical application.

BACKGROUND:Bone ultrastructural destruction is an important cause for bone strength decrease,bone friability and bone fracture incidence increase in osteoporosis.OBJECTIVE:To observe the ultrastructural changes of distal femur cancellous bone in glucocorticoid (GC)-treated rats by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).METHODS:A total of 32 female Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 3.5 months old,were respectively treated with methylprednisolone 3.5 mg/kg per day by subcutaneous injection to induce osteoporosis and normal saline.At 4 and 9 weeks,the distal femurs were coronary sectioned and rinsed with distilled water,dehydrated in graded ethanol,coated with gold,and observed by SEM.RESULIS AND CONCLUSION:Compared to the control,the number of bone trabeculae in the GC group was significantly decreased,and the bone trabeculae became thin,fragile,discontinuous;network structures of bone trabeculae were destroyed,and bone resorption surface increased,with disorderly arranged collagenous fibers and increased micro-damage.Rats treated with GC for 4 weeks maintained better bone ultrestructure compared with rats treated with GC for 9 weeks.Results show that GC can induce bone mass lost,destroy network structures of bone trabeculae,accelerate bone resorption in rat cancellous bone,and accordingly lead to increased bone brittleness and decreased bone functional of biodynamics.
