Objective To investigate the effect of alternative decompression body pad in the intraopera-tive pressure sore prevention.Methods Using random sampling methods,100 cases of patients were collect-ed and divided into the experimental group and the control group with 50 cases in each group,the experimental group adopted self-designed alternative decompression body pad and the control group used common body pad.The skin red,and hurt situation in the main parts of compression were observed,the average pressure of the main parts of compression,such as forehead,chest, anterior superior iliac spine was measured by means of stress-based software DZX29 figure measuring instrument, the above data underwent comparison.Results Statistical differences existed in skin red,skin damage and the average pressure between the two groups.Conclusions The alternative decompression body pad can effectively reduce the partial pressure of the vertical principal stress,and having an active role in the prevention of intraoperative pressure sores.But the prevention of pressure sores will still need to take comprehensive nursing measures.

OBJECTIVE：To study the effcet of Nitric oxide (No) on transcriptional expression of c-fos and c-jun oncogene of cultured rabbit arterial smooth muscle cells (ASMC),and its mechanism.METHODS:(1)To culture rabbit ASMC from explants;(2) To determine if NO,FeSO4,and methylene blue have toxic effect on ASMC by cell counting;(3)RNA isolation from ASMC by Guanidinium Thiocyanate-phenol-chloroform method;(4)RNA-DNA blot hybridization.RESULTS:Under the condition of no toxic effects,NO inhibited the expression of c-fos and c-jun oncogene of ASMC apparently,FeSO4 and methylene blue antagonized the inhibition effcet.CONCLUSION:NO inhibited the expression of c-fos and c-jun oncogene of ASMC through cGMP.This may be related to the important mechanism that NO inhibits the proliferation of ASMC.

Objective To evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of transabdominal myomectomy (TAM), transvaginal myomectomy (TVM) and laparoscopic myomectomy (LM). Methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 89 cases of TAM (Group TAM), 34 cases of TVM (Group TVM) and 62 cases of LM (Group LM). Results About the operation time, the Group LM occupied the first place (123 7 min?56 7 min), the Group TAM came second (90 5 min?31 1 min), and the Group TVM last (60 7 min?20 5 min), with significant differences among the three groups ( P 0 05), but the blood loss in both of the groups was much more than that in the Group TVM ( P 0 05), but markedly lower than that in the Group TAM ( P

AIM To evaluate the beneficial effects of isoliensinine on paraquat(PQ)-induced acute lung injury and pulmonary fibrosis and explore the mechanism of its action. METHODS PQ (45 mg·kg-1, ip)-induced acute lung injury and PQ (100 mg·kg-1, ig)-induced pulmonary fibrosis were prepared. At 8, 24 and 48 h after PQ administration, the effects of isoliensinine (20 mg·kg-1, ig, 3 times a day, from 24 h before PQ administration to the end of experiment) on activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of acute lung injury groups were evaluated respectively. On the 14 d following PQ ingestion, the effects of isoliensinine (10, 20 and 40 mg·kg-1, ig, twice a day, from 24 h before PQ administration to the end of experiment) on hydroxyproline content, transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) expressions and the histopathological changes in lung tissues of pulmonary fibrosis groups were observed. RESULTS In the acute lung injury model, isoliensinine (20 mg·kg-1) significantly increased SOD activity, and decreased MDA content and ALP activity, as well as ameliorated the histopathological damage of lung tissue compared with PQ group. However, the indexes mentioned above in isoliensinine alone group did not change obviously compared with normal saline group. In the pulmonary fibrosis model, isoliensinine (10, 20 and 40 mg·kg-1) resulted in a dose-dependent decrease of hydroxyproline content compared with PQ group [(2.11±0.21), (1.94±0.24) and (1.89±0.26), respectively, vs (2.44±0.33) mg·g-1 wet tissue]. The expressions of TGF-β1 and MMP-2 in the lung tissue of the isoliensinine 40 mg·kg-1+PQ group were significantly less than those of the PQ group. Furthermore, isoliensinine could improve the histopathological changes of fibrosis as comparison with PQ group. CONCLUSION Isoliensinine has protective effects on PQ-induced acute lung injury and pulmonary fibrosis.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the possibility of vaginal hysterectomy for patients with moderately enlarged uterus of benign lesions.

METHODSOne hundred and seventeen women with benign uterine diseases underwent vaginal hysterectomy. These patients were divided into two groups according to uterine weight. Group I contained 60 patients with uterine enlargement to a weight of 200 to 750 g, and group II contained 57 patients with uterine weight of less than 200 g. Uterine morcellation was performed in some cases. The perioperative data in both groups were analyzed.

RESULTSIn group I, 59 cases underwent transvaginal hysterectomy successfully, except 1 case converted to abdominal operation and the uterine morcellation was performed in 21 women. In group II, all patients successfully underwent transvaginal hysterectomy without any assistance of special technique. The mean uterine weight of group I was significantly heavier than that of group II (280.18 +/- 100.40 g vs 146.48 +/- 35.19 g). The mean operating time was significantly longer for group I than that for group II (83.93 +/- 26.26 minutes vs 35.22 +/- 20.55 minutes). There were no significant differences in blood loss and complications between group I and group II. There was no injury of urinary bladder or rectum, and no vaginal vault infection.

CONCLUSIONSVaginal hysterectomy of moderately enlarged uterus can be safely and effectively performed by experienced operators. In some cases, in order to reduce the uterine volume, uterine morcellation should be used to shorten operative time, reduce the bleeding, and lower the postoperative complications.

Objective To investigate the epididymal sperm ultrastructure after vasectomy. Methods During the operation of vasovasostomy (38 cases, test group) and vasectomy (13 cases,control group,group A) the proximal vas deferens fluids were collected.The epididymal sperm morphology in the proximal vas deferens fluids was observed using optical and electronic microscopes.Data were analyzed by SPSS program. Results The data from group A showed that there was no significant difference between left and right side in the percentage of normal sperm morphology.The results from both optical and electronic microscopes showed that there was a significant difference in the percentage of normal sperm morphology (a),abnormal sperm head (b),sperm with neck defect (c) and sperm with tail defect (d) between group A and group B(5 years after vasectomy). (electronic microscopes:(a):(40.28?11.53)% vs (16.80?7.93)%,(6.29? 4.57 )%,( 4.63? 5.06 )%; (b):(35.00?14.18)% vs (59.05?14.44)%,(63.43?15.23)%,(82.05? 16.71 )%;(c):(20.83? 6.40 )% vs (13.60?6.78)%,( 14.71? 6.82)%,(9.00?7.18)%;(d):(3.89?4.44)% vs (10.55?11.73)%,(15.57?9.81)%,(4.32?7.65)%. optical microscopes:(a):(49.12?20.55)% vs (19.95?15.42)%,(10.00?9.50)%,(5.84?9.63)%; (b):(35.00?14.55)% vs (22.55?16.24)%,(14.71?15.78)%,(10.68?18.65)%; (d):(15.80?9.55)% vs (57.50?24.74)%,(75.29?23.90)%,(78.21?30.33)%.There existed multi-cell organ and multi-form abnormalities in the inner structures of sperm heads,necks and tails. Conclusions The epididymal sperm defect (including head, neck and tail) after vasectomy was demonstrated in the inner cell organs.The longer after vasectomy, the higher percentage of sperm with abnormality was found.

To further investigate the mechanisms of action of icariin (ICA), we assessed the effects of ICA on the in vitro formation of cGMP and cAMP in isolated rabbit corpus cavernosum. Isolated segments of rabbit corpus cavernosum were exposed to increasing concentrations of ICA and the dose-dependent accumulation of cGMP and cAMP was determined in the tissues samples by means of 125I radioimmunoassay. Responses of the isolated tissues preparations to ICA were compared with those obtained with the reference compounds sildenafil (Sild). Furthermore, the effects of ICA on the mRNA expression of specific cGMP-binding phosphodiesterase type V (PDE5) in rat penis were also observed. After incubation with ICA for 6 h or 14 h respectively, the levels of PDE5 mRNA were examined by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The results showed that ICA increased cGMP concentrations directly (P < 0.05), but there was no significant effect on cAMP concentrations (P > 0.05). In the presence of sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a stimulatory agent of cGMP, both ICA and Sild increased cGMP concentrations with increasing dose (P < 0.01). Their EC50 was 4.62 (ICA) and 0.42 (Sild) micromol/L respectively. Under the same condition, ICA and Sild unaltered cAMP level significantly (P > 0.05). There were PDE5A1 and PDE5A2 mRNA expressions in rat corpus cavernosum with PDE5A2 being the dominant isoform. ICA could obviously inhibit these two isoforms mRNA expression in rat penis, and decrease PDE5A1 more pronouncedly (P < 0.01). The present study indicated that the aphrodisiac mechanisms of icariin involved the NO-cGMP signal transduction pathway, with increasing cGMP levels in the corpus cavernosum smooth muscle. The inhibitory effect of icariin on PDE5 mRNA expression, especially on PDE5A1, might account for its molecular mechanisms for its long-term activity.

2,3,5,4'-tetra-hydroxystilbene-2-O-glucoside (THSG), the water-soluble active components extracted from dried tuber root of Polygonum multiflorum (Polygonaceae), can promote the release of nitric oxide (NO) from vascular endothelial cells and has strong antioxidation. The postconditioning's protection of THSG on cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury and the mechanism were investigated. After reperfusion for 3 h following occlusion of rat left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) for 30 min, SαT recovery speed, arrhythmia and cardiac infarct size were observed.The ischemic size and infarct size was identified by using Evans blue and TTC staining methods respectively. The results showed that the infarct size in THSG 7. 5 mg/kg postconditioning group was significantly decreased from 43.6 %±9.1 % in mode group to 16.5 %±6.5 % (P＜0.01).SαT recovery was quicker and the incidence of arrhythmia (55.6 % vs 100 %, P＜0.05) was significantly lower than in control group. The infarct size in THSG+glybenclamide group was greater than in THSG group, but equivalent to that in control group (46.8 %±9.8 % vs 43.6 %±9. 1 %, P ＞0. 05), SαT recovery speed slower and the incidence of arrhythmia also lower (33. 3 % vs 100 %, P＜0. 01), suggesting that glybenclamide could abolish the effects of THSG postconditioning reducing the cardiac infart size. It was concluded that THSG administration before reperfusion could effectively alleviate the cardiac reperfusion injury and possessed the postconditioning effects of reducing cardiac infarct size, which might be related with the KATP channel opening.
