Objective To study the protective effects and mechanisms of adenosine on lung ischemia-reperfusion injury in rabbit. Methods The rabbit ltng model of ischemia-reperfusion was constructed.Thirty Chinese rabbits were random divided into three groups: Group A (no surgery), group B (ischemiareperfusion) and group C (Adenosine + ischemia-reperfusion). The MDA content,SOD content of the plasma, wet-dryrate (W/D) and the pathology of lung tissue and the index of quantitative assessment of histologic lung injury (IQA) were measured after 60 min reperfusion. Results After 60min reperfusion, the value of W/D, MDA and IQA in group B were significantly higher than those in group A (q = 7. 06,13.71,18. 62, P ＜0.01), while the concentration of SOD were lower than those in group A (q = 14. 33, P ＜0.01). In contrast with group B, W/D,MDA and IQA in group C was obviously lower (q =5.23 ,8. 51, 9.99,however, the concentration of SOD were higher than those in group B (q = 7.73, P ＜ 0. 01). In contrast with group A and C ,the expression of CD11b/CD 18 of group B was significantly increased after 60min reperfusion (q =8.59,9.56, P ＜0. 01). Conclusion Adenosine can prevent ischemia-reperfusion injury in rabbit lung in vivo by inhibiting the expression of CD-11b/CD18 on PMNs and dropping oxygen free radicals level.

Research into methamphetamine-induced neurotoxicity has experienced a resurgence in recent years. This is due to an increased abuse of the substance internationally. The long-term abuse of methamphetamine will result in neurochemical, neuropathological and behavioral changes. Recent data implicate that dopamine oxidation, glutamate-induced excitotoxicity, disruption of mitochondria, and apoptosis are involved in the injury of methamphetamine to central nervous system. Further, Involvement of cell death-related genes in the neurotoxic effects of methamphetamine is also discussed.

Objective To investigate correlation between the expression of TIG1 and the prognostic significance in acute leukemia (AL).Methods The TIG1 expression level of 75 AL and 20 normal control (NC) were measured by Real-Time Quantitative PCR(RT-QT-PCR).Results TIG1 gene expressed at a higher level in NC(0.0609±0.0281 ) than that in de novo AL(0.0057±0.0035)(U=-6.321,P=0.000).The expression of TIG1 in complete remission patients(AL-CR)(0.0409±0.0244)were lower than that in NC too(U=-2.582,P=0.01).The expression of TIG1 in AL-CR patients (83.3 ％) were higher than that in de novo AL (53.1％)(U=-6.366,P=0.000).In AL patients,the CR rate of high TIG1 level cases were higher than that in low level cases (x2=4.563,P=0.033).Conclusions Reduced expression of TIG1 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of AL.TIG1 can serve as a marker of poor prognosis in AL.

Objective To study the treatment effects of intravenous levocarnitine in combinaton wlth vitamin-E in the oxidative stress state,endothelial cell function and nutritional status of patients with maintenance hemodialvsis (MHD).Methods 83 patients with MHD were randomized to the control group (Group A),and three treatment groups:with levocarnitine (Group B),with Vitamin-E (Group C),with levocarnitine and Vitamin-E(Gmup D).Intravenous 1.0 g levocarnitine were administered to Group B,oral vitamin-E(200 mg,two times each day) to group C,and vitamin-E and levocarnitine were coadministratered to group D at the end of dialysis.The blood biochemical indicators of each group were measured respectively.At the same time,malondialdehyde(MDA),glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx) and nitricoxide (NO) expression were mesured.Results MDA of group A increased compared with pre-dialysis at the end of the 3rd month[(4.81±0.08)nmoL/L vs(4.62±0.06)nmol/L(P<0.05)].and GSHPx declined at the end of the 3rd month[(72.02±2.05)μmol/L vs(74.62±1.46)μmol/L(P<0.01)] Hemoglobin(Hb),and blood albumin (Alb) reduced without statistical significan (P>0.05);In group B and C.MDA declined more compared with Group A[(3.86±0.06)nmol/L,(3.81±0.19)nmol/L vs (4.81±0.08)nmoL/L,(P<0.01)],while the GSHPx and NO increased significantly[(92.11±1.62)μmol/L,(92.14±1.37)μmol/L vs(72.02±2.05)μmol/L;(64.24±1.72)μmol/L,(64.35±1.67)μmol/L vs (49.91±1.19)μmol/L(P<0.05)].In the 3rd month,Hb and Alb level rised obviously(P<0.05);Group D was better than Group B and C(P<0.01).Conclusions Levocamitine and Vitamin-E effectively improve oxidative stress and nutrition status and the function of endotllelial cells of the MHD patients.It probably slows atherosclerosis progress.Furthermore,the combined medication is better.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of temperature-controlled radiofrequency ablation of tonsil in the treatment of children obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).Methods From January 2003 to January 2006,30 patients,confirmed OSAHS by polysomnography(PSG),aging from 3 to 10 years(mean:5.8 years)were treated by temperature-controlled radiofrequency ablation of tonsil,in which 21 cases with adenoidal hypertrophy were treated with adenoidectomy,and 3 of the 21 cases with secretory otitis media received auripuncture.Results Six months after the operation,the symptom of snoring and mouth breathing in all patients disappeared,tonsillar hypertrophy was kept in Ⅰ or Ⅱ grade,no pharynx stenosis was detected,and hearing was recovered to normal.After 1 year,20 cases were monitored with PSG,of which 10 cases were cured,8 cases showed apparent efficacy and 2 cases showed efficacy.Conclusions The temperature-controlled radiofrequency ablation of tonsil is an effective and safe technique in the treatment of children OSAHS.

Elements, including experimental personnel, facili-ties, equipment, apparatus, technology and skills, are essential to carrying out pre-clinical reproductive toxicity research. As to a study , authenticity , normativity , scientificity and innovativeness guarantee the success. These four elements are independent of each other,but mutually supported. Authenticity and scientificity are the footstone and soul, respectively, for drug non-clinical re-productive toxicity research. Normativity guarantees authenticity and scientificity, and innovativeness relies on authenticity. Nor-mativity and scientificity ensure the reliability and dynamics of experimental results which perhaps is an effective way accessing innovation.

Objective To observe the effectiveness of electrolyzed oxidizing water(EOW) in disinfections of endoscopes and compared with that of 2% glutaraldehyde. Methods (1) Disinfections of bacteri-a:Specimens were obtained immediately from endoscopes after being used, disinfected and washed out for bacterial culture. Endoscopes were immersed in either EOW or 2% glutaraldehyde for 1 , 3 and 5 minutes. Each time group consisted of 30 cases. (2 ) Effectiveness on disinfections of H. Pylori: endoscopes either from patients with H. Pylori infection or artificially contaminated with H. Pylori were washed out and exposed for 1 ,3 and 5 minutes in each of the disinfectants. PCR was used to detect DNA of H. Pylor. (3) Effectiveness of disinfections of HBV : Endoscopes were contaminated with HBV-positive serum, and the exposure time to both disinfectants were 1,3,5 and 10 minutes respectively. Thirty samples were studied in each time groups. Results ( 1 ) After manual cleaning and disinfections for 1, 3 and 5min in EOW, no vegetative bacteria were found. In 2% glutaraldehyde processing group, 5/30, 4/30 and 1/30 specimens remained bacteria positive, respectively. (2)There was no positive specimens found after 3 and 5 minutes' exposure in EOW in the group of H. Pylori, but 2/30 positive specimens were found in the 1 minute group. While 3/30, 4/30 and 4/30 positive specimens were found after exposure in 2% glutaraldehyde. (3) In the group of HBV, there is no positive case found after exposure in EOW, while in 2% glutaraldehyde groups, there were 2,5 ,4 and 5 cases remained positive in 1 ,3,5 and 10 minutes group respectively. Conclusion EOW is superior to 2% glutaraldehyde in disinfections of Hp or HVB with high-speed and thoroughness, and worthy to be recommended in disinfections of endoscopes.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of Feiji Formula, a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine, on lung cancer metastasis in mice. METHODS: The lung cancer metastasis model of mice was established in this experiment study. Twenty-four mice were randomly divided into three groups: untreated group, cisplatin group and Feiji Formula group. Mice in the Feiji Formula group were treated with Feiji Formula decoction; in cisplatin group, with cisplatin by intraperitoneal injection; and in the untreated group, with normal saline (NS). After twenty-day treatment, the body and tumor weights as well as the number of metastatic tumors in both lungs of each mouse were measured. RESULTS: The body weight of mice in cisplatin group was significantly less than that of Feiji Formula group and untreated group (P<0.01); the tumor weight of mice in cisplatin group and Feiji Formula group was markedly lower than that of untreated group (P<0.01); and the number of metastatic tumors in cisplatin group and Feiji Formula group was markedly lower than that of the untreated group (P<0.01), no significant difference between the Feiji Formula group and cisplatin group in terms of the weights and the numbers of metastatic tumors in bilateral lungs. CONCLUSION: Feiji Formula can suppress tumor growth and decrease the number of lung metastatic tumors in the mice, and maintain the body weight of the mice.

Objective To explore the effect of group psychological training on the mental health and self consistency of nurses from operating rooms.Methods 52 nurses of an operating room were randomized into the treatment group(n=25)and the control group(n=27): The latter received humane care and instructions for mental self care and the former received group psychological training for 8 weeks based on the same treatment as in the control group.Symptom checklist 90(SCL-90)and self consistency and congruence scale(SCCS)were used to assess and compare the difference of the two groups before and after training.Results The intra-and inter-group comparisons between pre-and post-intervention showed statistical differences in terms of the total score by SCL,interpersonal sensitivity,depression and hostility,total score by SCCS and the score on the subscale of inconsistency between themselves and their experience(all P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion Group psychological training can effectively improve the level of mental health and self consistency of OR nurses and thus can improve the total psychological status of the OR nurses.
