Chronic alcohol consumption is a leading cause of chronic liver diseases worldwide, resulting in cirrhosis and hepa-tocellular carcinoma. Almost all heavy drinkers develop fatty liv-er, but only 20% ~40% of them develop more severe forms of alcoholic liver diseases such as alcoholic hepatitis and alcoholic fibrosis, and the underlying mechanisms that contribute to the disease progression remain largely unknown. The animal models which can mimic human alcoholic liver diseases are very neces-sary tools for better understanding and exploring the therapy strat-egy of the disease. Currently, the most widely used models for alcoholic liver injury are Lieber-DeCarli model, Tsukamoto-French model, Gao-binge model and others. Here we summarize the recent advances in animal models recapitulating different fea-tures and etiologies of human alcoholic liver diseases. These ani-mal models will be very useful for the mechanism study of alco-holic liver diseases and further new therapeutic drug screening.

Objective To study the effects of isoflurane anesthesia on the medium- and longterm cognitive function in mice at different months of age. Methods Male C57BL/6J mice at ages of 4 month (n =45)and 20 month (n 45) were randomly assigned to control group,short- term anesthesia and long term anesthesia groups,respectively (n=15 per group).Inhalation anesthesia was applied with 3％ isoflurane for induction and 1.2 ％ isoflurane for maintain in 30 ％ oxygen,and control group received 30％ oxygen only for 60 min.Short- and long- term anesthesia group anesthesia was maintained for 30 min and 60 min,respectively.Cognitive function was determined by alternative behavior and water maze.Alternative behavior was assessed at 1 d before ancsthesia and 7,14 and 28 d after anesthesia,and water maze was assessed from 7 d to 8 d,9 d,10 d,11 d and 28 d after anesthesia. Results The correct rate of alternative behavior at age of 4 month in long-term anesthesia group [(58=6)％] was lower than relative control [(69±9)％] (t=4.26,P＜0.01) at 28 d.The number of arm entries at age of 20 month in short- term anesthesia group (31 ± 6) was increased than control(24±6) and long-term anesthesia group (24±8)(F=5.34,P＜0.01) at 14 d after anesthesia,while the number in long-term anesthesia group (24± 6) was decreased than control (29±7) and short term anesthesia group(30±6)(F=3.29,P＜0.05) with no significant difference in correct rate at 28 d after anesthesia.There was no difference in latent time of water maze between groups at age of 4 month.The ratios of spent time in the target quadrant to the whole time at age of 4 month at 11 d and 28 d after anesthesia in short-term anesthesia group[( 36.6 ± 14.4)％,(34.7 ±9.5)％] and long term anesthesia group [( 36.8 ± 16.4)％ ,(31.8± 12.0)％] were reduced as compared with control [(49.5±8.8) ％,(42.8±12.2) ％] (F=3.31,3.30,all P＜0.05).The latent time of mice at age of 20 month at 11 d after anesthesia in short-term anesthesia[(31±6)s] and longterm anesthesia group [(30±7)s ] were longer than control [(23±6)s](F =3.34,P＜0.05).There were no differences in the ratios of spent time in the target quadrant to the whole time and the number of cross -platform among the groups. Conclusions Isoflurane anesthesia may impact the mediumand long- term cognitive funclion in mice at ages of 4 month and 20 month.

5 13. 9 mmol/L two days after STZ( 60 mg/kg) administration. Age-matched normal rats received 3 ml/kg bw 0. 9% saline as control group. The expression of PKC isoforms in control and diabetic glomerular cells was assessed by immunohistochemistry at 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 12 weeks after the onset of hyperglycemia. Results Immunohistochemistry revealed a significant increase of the expression of PKCa in glomeruli cells at 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 12 weeks. A significant decrease of PKCB1,B2 in glomerular cells at 2 weeks and a gradually increase at 4 weeks and 12 weeks were found; No significant change of the expression of PKC e in the diabetic glomerular cells was observed. Conclusions The expression of PKCa, B1,B2 e isoforms varies in different stages of diabetic nephropathy. The effect of PKC isoforms on the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy is different.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of nimodipine in treating cognitive impairment of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) and the value of magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in CSVD.Methods:A total of 80 patients with CVSD and cognitive dysfunction who admitted to Suzhou Municipal Hospital from February 2018 to February 2019 were selected, and the patients were divided into control group (40 patiengts) and observation group (40 patients) by random number table method. The control group received basic treatment and donepezil, and the observation group added nimodipine on the basis of control group. All patients were followed up for 12 months. Before treatment, 6 months after treatment and 12 months after treatment, the patients’Montreal cognitive assessment scale (MoCA) score, daily living ability scale (ADL) score, and Tinetti balance and gait analysis(TGA) were recorded. The levels of total cholesterol (TC), triacylglycerol (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), homocysteine (Hcy) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) before and after treatment were recorded. The changes of DTI data before and after 12 months′ treatment in the two groups were recorded.Results:The MoCA score, ADL score, and TGA score of the two groups were higher than those before treatment and at 6 months and 12 months after treatment, and those 12 months after treatment were higher than those at 6 months after treatment. There were significant differences ( P<0.05). The MoCA and ADL scores of the observation group were higher than those of the control group at 6 and 12 months after treatment at 6 months: (24.61 ± 2.54) scores vs. (22.21 ± 2.83) scores, (71.53 ± 6.25) scores vs. ( 69.51 ± 6.81) scores; 12 months: (26.39 ± 2.16) scores vs. (23.76 ± 2.64) scores, (78.39 ± 5.76) scores vs. (72.39 ± 6.12) scores, P<0.05. At 6 months and 12 months after treatment, the visual space and execution ability, delayed memory, and orientation scores were higher than those before treatment, and in the observation group 12 months after treatment was higher than those 6 months after treatment: (5.97 ± 1.37) scores vs. (5.36 ± 1.29) scores, P<0.05. The observation group′s visual space and executive ability, abstract thinking, delayed memory, and orientation score were higher than those in the control group at the same period ( P<0.05). The levels of TC, TG, LDL-C, Hcy and hs-CRP of the two groups after treatment for 6 and 12 months were lower than those before treatment, and the levels of these index at 12 months after treatment were lower than those at 6 months after treatment ( P<0.05). The levels of Hcy and hs-CRP in the observation group were lower than those in the control group at 12 months after treatment, and Hcy was lower than that in the control group at 6 months after treatment ( P<0.05). After treatment, the fractional anisotropy (FA) values of the center, frontal lobe, and parietal lobe of both sides of the two groups were higher than those before treatment, and the difference in the observation group before and after treatment was higher than that of the control group ( P<0.05). After treatment, the mean diffusivity (MD) values of both frontal lobe and parietal lobe of the two groups were lower than those before treatment, and the difference between the observation group before and after treatment was higher than that of the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Nimodipine has a good effect on the treatment of CVSD, which can effectively improve the patients′ cognitive impairment and other symptoms. DTI can sensitively sense the white matter integrity and cerebral blood flow perfusion of patients, which has a positive significance for the prevention and treatment of CVSD.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features of hepatitis B virus-associated glomerulonephritis(HBV-GN) in children.Methods Clinical and pathological features were analyzed and correlated in 73 cases with renal biopsy-confirmed(HBV-GN).Sixty-six boys and 7 girls aged from 1 to 14 years old were included in this study,accounting for 14.4% in children under-(going) renal biopsy in the same period.Results Nephrotic syndrome(NS) was the prodominant clinical manifestation(53/73,72.6%),followed by glomerulonephritis(15/73,20.5%) and hematuria with proteinuria(5/73,6.9%).Serologic markers of HBV were found in all cases.Among them,55 cases(75%) were positive for hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg),hepatitis B e antigen(HBeAg) and anti-hepatitis B core(anti-HBc),14 cases(19.2%)positive for HBsAg,anti-HBe and anti-HBc,2 cases positive for HBsAg and anti-HBc,1 child positive for HBsAg and HBeAg,and another only positive for anti-HBc.The most common pathological type of HBV-GN was membranous nephropathy(MN),which was found in 69 cases(94.5%),followed by membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis(MPGN) and mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis(MsPGN),2 cases(2.7%),respectively.All cases with NS presented themselves with MN.The pathological grades were significantly correlated with clinical manifestations through double trend analysis(?~2=5.22 P=0.022).Conclusions MN is predominant in childhood HBV-GN,which mainly presented with NS.Their clinical patterns are somewhat correlated with pathological grades.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the relative bioavailability of two products(CLMC 1 ,CLMC 2 )of Clarithromycin in man.METHODS:A single oral500mg dose of CLMC 1 or CLMC 2 was given to20healthy male volunteers in an open randomized crossover study.The plasma concentrations of CLMC 1 and CLMC 2 were measured by microbial assay.The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated with3p97pharmacokinetic program and the bioequivalence was evaluated.RESULTS:The con?centration-time curves of CLMC 1 and CLMC 2 fitted to a two-compartent open model.C max were(2.23?0.83)?g/ml and(2.14?0.70)?g/ml;T max were(1.95?0.39)h,(1.78?0.41)h;AUC (0～T) were(9.50?2.52)(?g?h)/ml,(9.35?2.54)(?g?h)/ml respectively.The relative bioavailability of CLMC 1 was(101.60?9.35)%.CONCLUSION:The results of two and one-side t tests suggest that the CLMC 1 is bioequivalent with the CLMC 2 .

Objective To summarize the types and reasons of misdiagnosis in multiple myeloma (MM),and the approaches of avoiding misdiagnosis by analyzing the misdiagnosis data in MM.Methods 197 references of misdiagnosed MM were retrieved from Wanfang medicine net by using the key words multiple myeloma and misdiagnosis from the year 2000 to 2012,and 62 of them with complete data and statistical certainty from level 2 or higher national hospitals were analyzed and summarized.Results In 62 references,2110 patients were misdiagnosis.There were more than 160 misdiagnosed MM.The shortest time of delay in diagnosis was one week,and the longest was tcn years.The rate of misdiagnosis in MM was 56.44 ％ (1406/2491).The onset age of the youngest was 16 years old and the oldest was 87 years old.A difference of nearly 20 years was found between the maximum and minimum average age of onset.MM was misdiagnosed as 10 kinds of diseases.They were including bone joint disease 32.23 ％ (680/2110),other blood diseases 11.75 ％ (248/2110),infection 14.5 ％ (306/2110),solid tumor 6.35 ％ (134/2110),kidney disease 18.58 ％ (392/2110),digestive system disease 3.13 ％ (66/2110),rheumatism 4.64 ％ (98/2110),heart disease 4.64 ％ (57/2110),nervous system disease 2.99 ％ (63/2110),endocrine disease 0.38 ％ (8/2110).Conclusion MM could occur in all ages except children and may be mistaken for a variety of diseases.It is key to prevent misdiagnosis by strengthening the comprehensive understanding of MM by taking detailed history,careful physical examination,comprehensive laboratory examination,and comprehensive clinical thinking.
