Objective To explore the expression of(hyopxia inducible factor-α,HIF-1α)and gax genes on the intimal hyperplasia for venous autografts in rat.Methods Sixteen Wistar rats were randomLy divided into 2 groups,a control group and an experimental group,8 rats in each group.A rat model of venous autografts was established by transplanting the right external jugulars vein into right common carotid artery in 16rats.The transplanted vein in the experimental group was immersed in solution with recombinant adeno-associated virus(rAAV)and HIF-1α by incubation for 45 minutes at 0℃-4℃ before anastomosis and coated using glue gel in which rAAV-gax added just after anastomosis,the control ones were immersed only in the physiological solution in which rAAV solution without HIF-1α gene added,nothing to be coated except for glue gel only.The vein grafts were taken at 14 days after operation,RT-PCR technique,Western blotting and electric microscopy were used to detect the expression of HIF-1α mRNA and protein,gax mRNA and protein,phenotypic switch of VSMC.Results The expression of HIF-1α mRNA,the experimental group(93.1±22.9)bP,the con trol group(42.7±15.9)bP,P<0.01;the exprossion of gax mRNA,the experimental group(106.9±38.7)bP,the contrd group(50.7±25.8)bP,P<0.01;the exprossion of HIF-1α protein,the experimental group(10.86±2.76)kD,the control group(4.52±1.90)kD,P<0.01;the expression of gax protein,the experimental group(13.65±3.35)kD,the control group(5.40±2.26)kD,P<0.01;VSMC proliferation,the experinental group(21.3±5.4)%,the control group(41.2±8.6)%,P<0.05.Conclusion The present study demonstrated that HIF-1α and gax genes transfection could inhibit proliferation of VSMC and their phenotypic conversion from contractile phenotype to synthetic phenotype in venous autografts.

Objective To investigate the efficiency of autologous transplantation of peripheral blood stem cell for treatment of patients with chronic lower limb ischemia. Methods Forty-six patients with chronic lower limb ischemia were treated by autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. Results Fortytwo patients had pain relief on legs, and cold and cool feelings in lower limbs disappeared. Thirty-five patients had pain relief on feet, and 29 of them had disappearance of cold and cool feelings. Due to necrosis in middle and lower part of leg, 4 patients took extremity amputation after 4 weeks of the transplantation. In the 42 patients who kept their legs 3 months after transplantation, the distance of anginacruris extended from (87. 45 ±41.22) m to (348.52 ± 147.24) m, skin temperature increased from(28.52 ±0.51 ) ℃ to(33.56±0.62) ℃ ,and ankle-brachial index (ABI) increased from(0.48 ±0.06)to(0.75 ±0.07). There were statistical differences, and the scores of the distance of anginacruris, skin temperature, and ABI after transplantation were better than before. six months after transplantation autobiography of lower extremity was used, and neonatal lateral vessels of different degrees were found in 37 patients. Conclusion Autologous transplantation of peripheral blood stem cell is a simple, safe, and effective method, especially in treating patients with lower limb ischemia in which no arterial reconstruction is feasible.

Objective To investigate the relationship between renin (REN) gene G10631A, angiotensinogen (AGT) gene T704C mononucleotide polymorphisms and cerebral infarction and to investigate the mechanisms and characteristics of cerebral infarction from molecular level. Methods REN gene G1063A and AGT gene T704C polymorphisms in 82 patients with cerebral infarction and 89 controls were detected with polymerase chain reactionrestriction fragment length polymorphism. The differences of the genotypes and allele frequencies were compared between the patient group and the control group. Results The frequency of REN 10631AA genotype (31. 7% vs. 10. 1%,χ2 =12. 816, P = 0. 002) and the frequency of A genotype (49. 4% vs. 30. 3% χ2 = 12. 969, P =0. 000), as well as the frequency of AGT 704 CC genotype (63. 4% vs. 34. 8% χ2 = 15. 029, P = 0. 001) and the frequency of A genotype (79. 9% vs. 61. 2% χ2 = 14. 173, P = 0. 000) in the cerebral infarction group were all significantly higher than those in the control group; the frequency of haplotype 704C 10631A was also significantly higher than that in the control group (P=0. 000). Conclusions REN 10631AA genetype and A allele as well as AGT 704 CC genetype and C allele may be the susceptible factors of cerebral infarction. Haplotype 704C-10631 A may be a genetic risk factor for the occurrence of cerebral infarction.

Objective To explore factors related to the development of segmental instabilities in lumbar spine. Methods Fifty-seven patients with lumbar segment instabilities at L 4～5 were selected as illness group, 22 patients with facetectomy at L 4～5 as post-operation control group, and 19 healthy subjects as normal control. X-ray plain films were taken in sagittal,flexion and extension positions. Computed tomographic scans were taken to define the axial morphology of the facet joint. Magnetic resonance scans were taken to describe disc degeneration of 36 patients in illness group. Results The facet joint was oriented sagittally in the forward translation patients in flexion. The disc degeneration was slight in the rotational instability patients. The patients with total facetectomy exited forward translation in flexion. Conclusion A more sagittally oriented facet and disc degeneration are associated with forward translation in flexion and may be the cause of degenerative spondylolisthesis, whereas ligament failure is associated with rotational instability.

Objective To investigate the effect of simulated 400 m He-O2 saturation diving on the pulmonary oxidative-antioxidative system in rats.Methods SD rats were exposed to 4.1 MPa He-O2 mixture for 24 h in an animal chamber. Normal air pressure was used in the control group .The histopathology , contents of malondialdehyde ( MDA) , 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine(8-OHdG),and glutathione(GSH) and activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxi-dase( GSH-Px) in pulmonary tissues were determined .Results No difference was found during pathological examination or in MDA, 8-OHdG and SOD activity.GSH and GSH-Px activity were decreased significantly (P<0.05) after hyperbaric exposure.Conclusion Exposure to 4.1 MPa He-O2 for 24 h may promote oxidative stress and reduce antioxidative capacity rather than cause obvious oxidative damage in rat lungs .

The effects of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on pulmonary shunt were studied during gen- eral anesthesia and postoperative period.Twenty cholecystectomy patients were randomly divided into experiment group (group P) and control group (group Z). PEEP and ZEEP were used separately after induction. Artery blood and mixed blood from the right ventricle were taken for blood gas analysis and determine the amount of pulmonary shunting before anesthesia. half and hour, one and half an hour and two and half an hour after anesthesia and one hour after the operation.The results showed that shunt in group P decreased gradually during general anesthesia and returned to the level of preoperation at an hour after operation. Shunt in group Z was increased continually and the level was significantly higher than preoperation an hour after operation. Shunt between two groups was significant difference (P
