Objective To study the possible protective mechanisms of Anisodamine against liver injury induced by hemorrhage shock(HS). Methods In this study, we established animal models induced by HS and endotoxin, observed the expressions of NF-?B mRNA and heat shock protein 70(HSP 70) mRNA by In-situ hybridization (ISH) in liver kupffercells(KC) and studied the pathologic changes of the liver tissue by microscope. Results After stimulus of HS and injection of endotoxin, the mRNA expressions of HSP70 and NF-?B in KC were (0.1565?0.0260) and (0.1659?0.0103),respectively, and significantly higher than those in the control group (0.0328?0.0201; 0.0256?0.0043)(P

ABSTRACT:Objective To investigate CA125 and ALDH1 levels in diagnosis and postoperative follow‐up of endometriosis (EMs) .Methods Serum CA125 and ALDH1 levels were tested by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 105 patients with EMs and 100 healthy subjects who came to our hospital between January 2011 and June 2013 .Results The preoperative serum CA125 and ALDH1 levels of EMs patients were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0 .05) .Serum ALDH1 levels in stages I and II of EMs were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0 .05) ,but there was no difference in serum CA125 level between the two groups ( P>0 .05) .Taking CA125≥35 U/mL and ALDH1≥2 .0 pg/mL as the boundary values ,the specificity , sensitivity ,positive predictive value and negative predictive value of serum CA 125 combined with ALDH1 for diagnosis of EMs were 87 .1% ,91 .6% ,84 .6% and 89 .3% ,respectively .One month after operation ,serum CA125 and ALDH1 levels of EMs patients were decreased significantly (P<0 .05) ,but they were still higher than those in the control group ( P<0 .05) .Six months after operation ,their serum CA125 and ALDH1 levels did not differ from those in the control group (P>0 .05) .Relapse occurred in 1 patient 1 year after treatment and in 6 patients 2 years after treatment ;all these patients had a higher serum ALDH1 level than the control group ,but only 2 of them had a higher serum CA125 level .Conclusion The combined detection of serum CA125 and ALDH1 has a higher sensitivity in diagnosis of EMs .Serum ALDH1 level increases in stages Ⅰ and Ⅱ and recurrent patients and can become a better serum marker for early diagnosis and detection of the recurrence of EMs in patients .

ObjectiveTo explore the renal functions of vasopressin-deficient Brattleboro(BB) rats by using different concentrated Gadolinium-diethylenetetramine pentaacetic acid(Gd-DTPA) dynamic enhanced magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).MethodsThe study included 14 BB rats(male rats of 3 month-old) and 14 normal male Wistar rats used as control group.Dynamic MRI was performed by using either a low dosage(0.05 mmol/kg) or a high dosage of Gd-DTPA(0.5 mmol/kg).Data of 0-60 min renal cortex,medulla and pelvic were obtained after using contrast medium.MRI of kidneys at different time was analyzed and the mean relative signal intensity(RSI) was measured.Then the RSI curves of different groups were marked.Data of each group were caculated separately by SPSS 11.0 software.ResultsThe findings demonstrated that RSI curves of the vasopressin-deficient kidneys showed different patterns as compared with those of the control group(P

Dengue virus (DENV) is a re-emerging disease transmitted by the Aedes mosquitoes and has become a major public health problem in southern China. Currently, no antiviral drug or effective vaccine exist to control this disease. The chimeric DENV structural protein vaccine cannot elicit balanced levels of protective immunity to each of the four viral serotypes; therefore, non-structural protein components may be required to construct an effective DENV vaccine. The Dengue virus non-structural 1 (DENV NS1) protein plays a critical role in viral pathogenesis and protective immunity. Therefore, immunity to Dengue 1-4 NS1 subtypes may be crucial for the prevention of severe disease. This review attempts to provide an overview about the structure and function of DENV NS1.

Objective To observe the effect of fetus distress treated with hyperoxin liquid and to provide evidence for this treatment.Methods A total of 70 lying-in women with fetus distress during cesarean section were randomly divided into two groups: treatment group was given infusion of hyperoxin liquid by vein and control group was given 50g/L glucose.The blood gas was analyzed in the two groups,and the SOD and MAD of fetus ambilical blood were also tested.The blood gas analysis and the Apgar scoring of neonates were carried out.Results The PaO2 in pregnant and lying-in women and SOD,PO2,SaO2,HCO-3 and BE of fetuses in treatment group were obviously higher than those in control group.The MDA and PCO2 were significantly lower than those in control group.The Apgar score in treatment group was better than that in control group.Conclusion Hyperoxin liquid can improve the anoxia status of fetus distress and save time for further clinical treatment.
