OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of herbs for replenishing yin to tonify kidney on testicular ultrastructural changes in rats with glucocorticoid-induced kidney deficiency. METHODS: Thirty rats were randomized into three groups: normal control group, untreated group and Erdi Biejia Decoction (EDBJD)-treated group. Kidney deficiency rat model was induced by glucocorticoid. Testicular structure and ultrastructure were observed under the light microscope and the transmission electron microscope. RESULTS: The light microscope revealed the decreased thickness of seminiferous epithelium layer, reduced number of spermatogenic cells, interstitial tissue edema, and a qualitative reduction in the number of interstitial cells and hematoxylin-eosin stained cytoplasm in the untreated group. The transmission electron microscope revealed loose structure of seminiferous epithelium, degenerative mitochondria, and increased amounts of lysosome, presence of numerous cytoplasmic vacuolation and chromatin in interstitial cell cytoplasm in the untreated group. The aggregates of heterochromatin around the nuclear membrane and the shrinkage of nucleus were also observed. Compared to the untreated group, these pathological changes were inconspicuous in EDBJD-treated group. CONCLUSION: EDBJD as replenishing yin to tonify kidney herbs can suppress glucocorticoid induced pathological changes in the testes of rats.

Objective To explore the evaluation of three-dimensional fast imaging employing steady-state acquisition(3D-FIESTA) sequence in the diagnosis of non-tumorous midbrain aqueduct stenosis.Methods 48 patients with non-tumorous midbrain aqueduct stenosis were performed by conventional SE sequence and 3D-FIESTA sequence on a 1.5T superconductive MR unit.Then the advantage on showing aqueduct of midbrain foramen was retrospectively analyzed.Results The detecting rate of midbrain aqueduct stenosis was 98% (47/48) on 3D-FIESTA sequence and 79% (38/48) on conventional SE sequence,3D-FIESTA was more advanced on showing the aqueduct of midbrain(P <0.01).Conclusion The combination of 3D-FIESTA with MPR can clearly show the midbrain aqueduct stenosis,and be a new MRI examination way of obstructive hydrocephalus.

BACKGROUND:With the development of sports medicine and rehabilitation medicine, electromechanical delay has been looked as an important index for evaluating the neuromuscular function at abroad. But the relevant research is little reported in China. OBJECTIVE:To review the literatures related to electromechanical delay published in recent years, and to explore the mechanisms, influential factors and the application status of the electromechanical delay, thereby providing reference for clinical practice and research. METHODS:A computer-based search of CNKI, WanFang and PubMed databases was performed for articles addressing electromechanical delay published from February 1979 to February 2017. The keywords were electromechanical delay, electro-mechanical response time in English and Chinese, respectively.Repeated and old studies were excluded, and finally 44 eligible literatures were included, including 3 Chinese and 41 English articles. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The mechanisms of electromechanical delay have been clarified. The type of muscle fiber and the level of muscle fatigue can influence electromechanical delay, but the underlying mechanisms still remain unclear. Whether age and gender make effect on electromechanical delay is controversial. Electromechanical delay is not only used for evaluating the athletes' ability to reaction, but also wildly used to investigate the mechanism of various sports injuries and evaluate the effectiveness of rehabilitation.

Objective To evaluate the effect of naringenin on KIM-1 expression in rats with renal interstitial fibrosis caused by unilateral ureteral obstruction(UUO).Methods 24 SD male rats were randomly divided into Sham group,UUO group and naringe-nin group(Nar group),respectively.Rats in UUO group and Nar group got UUO to establish renal interstitial fibrosis models. Rats in Sham group only free but not ligated and cut ureters.Rats were administered saline and naringenin 25 mg/(kg·d)for 14 days.Then,24 h urine samples were collected before the rats were killed,and KIM-1 in these samples were measured by ELISA. Specimens were obtained from obstructive renal,the pathological change of renal tubule and interstitial were observe by HE and Masson staining.Moreover,the tubulointerstitial damage index was scored and the expression of KIM-1 in renal tissue was examined by immunohistochemical staining.Results Compared with Sham group,the tubulointerstitial damage index of UUO group significantly increased(P <0.05),contents of KIM-1 in urine and renal tissues also significantly increased(P <0.05).Com-pared with UUO group,the tubulointerstitial damage index score of Nar group alleviated(P <0.01),contents of KIM-1 in urine and renal tissues also reduced(P <0.05 ).Correlation analysis showed that there was positive correlation between KIM-1 in urine and renal tissues and TDI(r=0.862,0.866,P <0.01).Conclusion Naringenin can relieve renal interstitial fibrosis and reduce the content of KIM-1.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of liposome formulation in promoting hepatocytes' uptake of tenofovir and cytotoxic effect. METHODS: The tenofovir cationic liposomes were prepared by tert-butyl lyophilization, and its encapsulation efficiency and physico-chemical property were determined. Using human hepatic carcinoma cells SMMC-7721 as a model to investigate the effect of liposome formulation in promoting hepatocytes' uptake of tenofovir. MTT assays were used to examine the toxicity of tenofovir cationic liposomes in different conditions. RESULTS: The prepared tenofovir cationic liposomes had an encapsulation efficiency of (88.3?1.6)%, a size distribution of (278.4?67.6)nm and a Zeta potential of (31?5)mV. The results showed that the liposome formulations containing galactose and PEG modifying lipids resulted in significantly higher and prolonged drug accumulation inside cells as compared with free drugs. The cell survival rates were above 80% when the tenofovir liposome was at a concentration of 7.5?g?mL-1 and lipids at a concentration of 30?g?mL-1, and little toxicity was noted. CONCLUSION: The prepared cationic liposome can greatly enhance hepatocytes' uptake and protection of tenofovir, which is expected to become a highly effective drug delivery system of antiviral drugs such as tenofovir etc.

The object of medical research is human life,thus the understanding level of human being determines medical mode and the development of medical science.The origin of Marx's theory on human being is the realistic human,which provides methodological basis for reflecting on the biomedical faults from a logical perspective.Marx held that technology is the objectization of the essential power of human being,while technology under the context of capitalist production relations has been turned into certain means to control workers.Tend of dissimilation also arises in some modern medical fields,thus serious reflection and criticism are in great need.The overall development of human being is the core content in Marx's theory on human being.Since modern medicine is during the transition from bio-medical model to bio-psycho-social medial model,the new medical model calls for an overall development of main body in all aspects including qualification,ability,and social relations,etc.
