Objective To investigate the characteristics of the preoperative and postoperative urodynamical parameters of women with uterine cervical carcinoma after radical hysterectomies.Methods Forty-six women had uterine cervical carcinoma at stage Ⅰ b or Ⅱ a.Complete pre-and postoperative urodynamie follow-ups were conducted for each patient.Results Twenty-six women(57%)who had preoperatively normal urinary tract function needed to void by abdominal straining after radical surgery.After the radical hysterectomy,the postvoid residual volume[(205?201)vs(5?3)ml,P

Objective To explore the influence of lamotrigine(LTG)and valproate(VAP)on cognitive function in children with epilepsy.Methods Seventy-six epileptic children firstly diagnosed were chosen,36 cases received LTG monotherapy and 40 cases undwent the treatment of VPA.The intelligence quotient(IQ)value was measured before and after 6 months treatment respectively,and 20 healthy children were selected as healthy control.Results 1.The epileptic children had poor verbal intelligence quotient(VIQ),performance intelligence quotient(PIQ)and full intelligence quotient(FIQ)compared to the control subjects(Pa0.05).But among the subtestings,the know-ledge,wood-graph,coded score of the VPA groups had significant difference(Pa

Objective To explore the application effects of nursing teacher standard patient (TSP) to objective structured clinical examination (OSCE).Methods Students were given a mark from aspects of inquisition score table,nursing evaluation,nursing diagnosis,nursing plan and health education.Then examination results were analyzed.Results The data were normal distribution.The evaluation results were objective and effective.Conclusions Using TSP to evaluate nursing students is helpful for them to cultivate their clinical thinking model of taking patients as the centre.

Objective To establish an ultraviolet-irradiation damage model in cultured fibroblasts derived from human skin and to explore the potential protective effects and mechanisms of amyloid precursor protein 17-met peptide (APP17-mer peptide) on the oxidative damage and collagen metabolism in cultured fibroblasts after ultraviolet irradiation. Methods Human dermal fibroblast cultures were established by outgrowth from foreskin biopsies of a healthy donor and were irradiated by a single exposure to ultraviolet rays and cultured in a series of concentrations of APP17-mer peptide (0, 20, 40, 80 μmol/L).The activity of fibroblasts was detected by the assay of MTT. The intracellular ROS level was measured with a confocal microscope. The expression of MMP-1 mRNA was analyzed real-time quantitatively following RT-PCR. Results Primary cultures of human skin fibroblasts were established from human foreskin in DMEM supplemented with 10 % fetal bovine serum. UV irradiation depressed cellular activity and increased intracellular level of ROS (P<0.05). 40μmol/L and 80μmol/L APP17-mer peptide increased the cellular activity in both UV irradiated fibroblasts and unirradiated fibroblasts (P<0.05), however,20 μmol/L did not show such protective effects (P>0. 05). 40μmol/L APP17-mer peptide could depress the level of ROS in irradiated libroblasts. A single exposure of fibroblasts to UV irradiation resulted in 1.78 foldup-regulation of MMP-1 mRNA compared with unirradiated sample, 40μmol/L and 80μmol/L APP17-mer peptide decreased the expression of MMP-1 mRNA (P<0.05 and P<0.01, respectively).Conclusion APP17-mer peptide can enhance cellular activity under UV-induced oxidative stress and in-hibit collagen degradation in fibroblasts irradiated with ultraviolet rays. Inhibition of ROS production may be involved in the protective mechanism of APP17 peptide.

Objective To investigate whether porcine endothelial cells transfected with SP1 de-coy ODNs could resist complement-mediated cytotoxicity during the model of SV-40-PED with human serum in vitro. Methods Immortalized porcine aortic endothelial cells of the line PED were divided in-to three groups. The transfected group was SV-40-PED with SP1 decoy ODNs. The mismatched group was SV-40-PED with scrambled SP1 decoy ODNs. The negative group was cells with oligo-fectamine only. The expression of α1,3-GT mRNA and αGal was detected after 26 h by using fluores-cence microscope, Western blot, RT-PCR and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity assay. Results Fluorescence microscopy observed the decreased fluorescence of αGal after SP1 decoy ODNs transfec-tion. Dotted fluorescent decrease could be observed on some membrane while the mismatched group and negative group with bright green fluorescence. Western blot showed that the average absorbance of the PED cells transfected with decoy ODNs was decreased to 52.6% of the negative group (P<0.05). The expression of α1,3-GT mRNA in the PED cells transfected with decoy ODNs was 0.42±0.20 (isoform 1) and 0.27±0.12 (isoform 2) respectively, significantly lower than in the negative group (isoform 1, 0.72±0.17; isoform 2, 0.50±0.19; both P<0.05). The expression of α1, 3-G Tin the mismatch group was not different from that in the negative group (P>0.05). 20% normal hu-man serum (NHS) and 40 % NHS had cytotoxic effect on both mismatch and negative groups, but de-coy ODNs could confer SV-40-PED protection from the cytolysis effect (P<0.05), which made a re-markable reduction of complement-mediated cytotoxicity towards SV-40--PED. Conclusions SP1 decoy ODNs could confer porcine endothelial cells protection from complement-mediated cytotoxicity effect in vitro.

Objective:To investigate the role of transcription factor SP1 decoy oligodeoxynucleotides(ODN) on expression of ? Gal in SV-40-PED cells.Methods:Immortalized porcine aortic endothelial cells of the PED line were cultured and transfected with ?1,3galactosyltransferase(?1,3GT) specific decoy ODN.Cells transfected with mismatch ODN was used as negative controls.Twenty-six hours later the cells were collected.The expression of ? Gal was determined with fluorescence microscope and Western blot.The expression of ?1,3GT mRNA was examined by RT-PCR.Results:Fluorescence microscopy observed the decreased fluorescence of ? Gal after decoy ODN transfection.Western blot showed that the average absorbance of the PED cells transfected with decoy ODNs was(48.2?0.9).It is 52.6% of the mock group(P0.05).Conclusion:?1,3GT gene reduce actually occurs following transfection of decoy ODN.Porcine endothelial cells can be the targets of decoy ODN.
