Objective To investigate the change in heat shock protein 70(HSP7O) in the brain tissue of fetal and newborn rats after prenatal hypoxic adaptation and the possible mechanism of the protective effect. Methods Twenty-two 22d pregnant Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups: GroupⅠ(hypoxic adaptation group) and group Ⅱ(control group). The animals in group Ⅰ were placed in a tightly closed hypoxic adaptation chamber, of which the oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations were monitored. The pregnant rats were taken out and exposed to fresh air for 5 mm when the 02 % in the chamber was reduced to 15 %, then the pregnant rats were placed back in the chamber and the above process was repeated once. The animals were then left for their natural labor. In control group the pregnant rats underwent the same process but the chamber was not tightly closed(O2 %= 21 %). Prenatal rats were delivered by cesarean section at lb. 3h, 8h, 24h, 48h, 72h, 120h and 168h after hypoxic adaptation and decapitated and brain was removed. Seven newborn rats from each group were decapitated and brain was removed for determination of HSP70 expression with immunohistochimical technique. Results No HSP7O expression was observed in the brain tissue of normal prenatal and newborn rats. HSP70 was observed in the different regions of hippocampus and cortex from 8h to 168h after hypoxic adaptation. Strongest HSP70 expression was observed in hippocampus CAl . Conclusions HSP70 plays a role in the formation of prenatal hypoxic adaptation.

Objective To know the present sanitary status of bathing beach in Haikou,and provide the scientific data for improving the assessment of microorganisms contamination of bathing beach. Methods The routine water quality data and related meteorological data of the bathing beach were collected from 2007 to 2009. In July 8th-10th 2009,a high grade bathing beach and an ordinary one were selected,four sampling sites were selected where the contamination by feces were often seen,the number of swimmers was the largest,the samples were collected from the deep-water areas and sand beach respectively,and fecal coliform and enterococcus were examined. Results The concentration of fecal coliform was(1 085.8?538.8)cfu/L in water and(120 000.0?32 659.9)cfu/1 000 g in sand,and the E.faecalis was(32.5?19.1)cfu/L in water and(2 425.0?689.8)cfu/1 000 g in sand. The numbers of the two kinds of bacteria in water decreased with the increase of distance from the land. The concentration of bacteria was positively correlated to the day's rainfall(P

Objective To investigate the curative effects of selected proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) patterns and techniques on shoulder subluxation soon after strokd. Methods Forty-one stroke patients with shoulder subluxation were randomly divided into a treatment group(n=22) and a control group (n=19). The patients in the treatment group receiveed the selected PNF techniques daily for 4 weeks, while the patients in the control group were treated with their previous therapeutic protocol. The shortest distance from the lower border of the acromion to the nearest point of the humeral head(AHH) was measured. Brunnstron grading was used to evaluate motor function in the affected upper linb, and a visual analogue scale (VAS) to assess subLuxation. Shoulder pain before and after treatment was also assessd. Results There was no significant difference in general condition between the patients in the two groups before treatment. In the treatment group, a significant improvement in AHH distance of the affected shoulder was observed after 4 weeks. Shoulder subluxation waw cured in 13 patients, with AHH distance ＜0.75 cm after 4 weeks of treatment. Conclusion The PNF technique applied was effective for the early treatment of subluxation after stroke. Motor function in the affected upper limb could be improved significantly and pain alleviated.

Objective To discuss the clinical effects of hemiarthroplasty for the treatment of intertrochanteric comminuted fracture in aged patients.Methods From June 2006 to June 2010,91 cases with intertrochanteric comminuted fractures were treated by hemiarthroplasty using Zweymtüller long-stem cementless implant.There were 35 males and 56 females,with an average age of 81.2 years (range,75-94 years).There were fresh fractures in 75 cases and old fractures in 16 cases.According to classification of Evans-Jensen,there were 36 cases with type Ⅲ fracture and 55 with type Ⅳ.Osteoporosis was graded by Singh index,and there were 51 cases with level Ⅲ and 40 with level Ⅱ.The interval between injury and operation was 2-10 d (average,3.5 d).Results The surgery lasted 30-50 min (average,39 min).The blood loss was 320-610 ml (average,405 ml).The hospital stay was 14-21 d (average,16.5 d).Two cases who experienced with the infection of the respiratory system after operation,recovered through routine treatment.Thirty-seven cases were followed up for 15 to 38 months (average,24.5 months).According to the Harris score,the overall rate of excellent or good result was 83.8％ (31/37).Conclusion Hemiarthroplasty using Zweymüller long-stem cementless prosthesis is reliable option for intertrochanteric comminuted fracture in the aged patients.

Objective To compare the diagnostic value of DSA with that of Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI for postoperative recurrent tiny hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) lesions.Methods The clinical data of a total of 38 patients,who were admitted to authors' hospital during the period from September 2011 to March 2016 as clinically they were suspected to have postoperative recurrent tiny HCC lesions,were retrospectively analyzed.DSA,DSA plus lipiodol CT scan and Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI were performed in all patients.The positive and negative diagnosis rates were compared among different examination methods,the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were calculated.The imaging diagnosis of each patient was made by two associationchief radiologists independently,both the pathological findings from surgery or puncture biopsy and the 6-month follow-up results were taken as the final diagnosis basis.Results A total of 47 lesions were detected in the 38 patients.The diameter of the lesions was 0.5-2.0 cm,with an average of (1.2+0.8) cm.Of the 47 lesions,41 were proved to be recurrent tiny HCC lesions.Among the 41 lesions,22 had pathological evidence,and the remaining 19 lesions were confirmed through clinical follow-up.Six lesions were non-HCC focus,which were proved by clinical follow-up.For all lesions,the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 72.2％ and 80.0％ respectively by conventional DSA,which were 90.2％ and 100％ respectively by DSA plus lipiodol CT scan,and were 95.1％ and 100％ respectively by Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI.Statistical analysis indicated that significant differences in diagnostic sensitivity and specificity existed between conventional DSA and DSA plus lipiodol CT scan as well as between conventional DSA and Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI (P＜0.05),while the differences in diagnostic sensitivity and specificity between DSA plus lipiodol CT scan and Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI were not statistically significant (P＞0.05).Conclusion For the detection of postoperative recurrent tiny HCC lesions,DSA plus lipiodol CT scan has quite the same diagnostic value as Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI does.For patients who are not suitable to receive MRI examination,the use of DSA plus lipiodol CT scan,as an alternative means of inspection,should be taken into consideration.

Objective To investigate the effect of immature dendritic cell (imDC) derived from donor-derived bone marrow induced by alkaloid sinomenine (SN) on the Th1/Th2 cytokines in venous blood of receptors,and to probe into the mechanism which imDC induced by SN can lead transplantation immune tolerance.Methods Inbred strain Wistar and Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were selected as kidney transplant donor and recipient,respectively.Vessel sutures of the microsurgery technique were used to build the bilaterally renal transplantation model of rats.By the injection of imDC to the recipient rats preoperatively,enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the level of the interleukin (IL)-2,IL-4,IL-10 and interferon-γ (INF-γ).Results (1) Successful rate of transplantation was 89.5％.Arterial anastomosis time was (12.5 ±5.7)min,and venous anastomosis time was (17.3 ± 3.4)min.(2) The content of the IL-2,INF-γ,IL-4 and IL-10 in SN-imDC 106 group was (17.25 ± 3.41) pg/ml,(239.80 ± 9.06) pg/ml,(337.60 ± 25.07) pg/ml,and (1 432.00 ± 106.39) pg/ml,respectively.Among the same concentration,the level of the IL-4 and IL-10 that stood for the Th2 cytokines was significantly higher in SN-imDC group than imDC group and control group (P ＜ 0.05),and was significantly higher in SN-imDC 106 group than SN-imDC 105 group (P ＜ 0.05).Among the same concentration,the lever of IL-2 and INF-γ that stood for the Th1 cytokines was significantly lower in SN-imDC group than imDC group and control group (P ＜ 0.05),and was significantly lower in SN-imDC 106 group than SN-imDC 105 group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions (1) The use of microsurgery for anastomosis could make the model of singel kidney transplantation in rats.(2) Specific imDC induced by SN could induce the migration to Th2 immune response,which proved imDC induced by SN could mediate immune tolerance to the recipient.

BACKGROUND:It may be an important approach to avoiding organ transplant rejection by utilizing immature dendritic cells to induce donor-specific immunologic tolerance. OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of sinomenine on the differentiation and maturation of rat bone marrow-derived dendritic celsin vitro. METHODS:Bone marrow-derived dendritic cells were isolated from the rat femur and tibia, and immature dendritic cells were induced by granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor and interleukin-4. On day 7, lipopolysaccharide was added and the cells were cultured to generate mature dendritic cells. Cells were divided into control group and low-, middle- and high-dose sinomenine treatment groups (SNL, SNM, SNH groups). Forty hours later, dendritic cels were harvested, and cell morphology was observed by inverted phase contrast microscope. The expression of CD80 and RT1B was detected by flow cytometry. ELISA was used to detect the expression of interleukin-12. The mixed lymphocyte reaction was used to detect the ability of dendritic cells to stimulate the activation of allogeneic T lymphocytes. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Under the inverted microscope, the morphology of mature dendritic cells was observed in the control group; in the SNL group most dendritic cells were visible; in the SNM group, there were partially suspended cells with poor maturation; and in the SNH group, most of the cells were not mature. (2) The expression of CD80 in the control group was significantly lower than that in the SNL, SNM and SNH groups (P < 0.05), and the expression of RT1B was significantly reduced in the SNM and SNH groups than the control group. (3) Compared with the control group, the level of IL-12p70 in the cell supernatant was significantly decreased in the SNM and SNH groups (P < 0.01). (4) The ability of dendritic cells to stimulate T lymphocyte proliferation in the SNM and SNH groups was significantly decreased compared with the control group (P < 0.05). To conclude, sinomenine can inhibit the maturation of dendritic cells.

Objective To study the significance and value of imaging typing by analyzing the correlation between contrast-enhanced ultrasound perfusion imaging typing and vascularization in patients with primary hepatocellular cancer.Methods The early enhanced arterial phase reflecting angioarchitecture,and the size and edge of enhanced tumor closely related to microvessel distribution, position and density, were observed and analyzed in 89 patients (113 lesions).All the cases were pathologically proved, and some received immunohistochemisty staining and the microvessel density were recorded.Results The perfusion imagings were classified into 4 types according to changes on contrast-enhanced ultrasound,dendritic,mixed,circular and net-like type.Atypia vessels were commonly seen in dendritic type,and Ⅲ and Ⅳ accounted for 79.1%.The microvessel density was higher than the other types.The circular type was relatively regular and Ⅲ and Ⅳ accounted for 12.5%.The microvessel density was lower than the other types.Combined with the contrast-enhanced ultrasound perfusion imaging and compared with pathological grading,growing methods and microvessel density, the dendritic type was characterized by infiltrative growth, and had strong invasion tendency.The circular type was characterized by expansive growth.And the other two types were characterized by transitional type.Conclusions Contrast-enhanced ultrasound can reflect the angioarchiteeture, the microvessel density and the position,and it is related to the pathological grading and growing methods.

Objective To investigate the aerosolized livability,aerosolized quantity and aerosol particle diameter,etc. of phage D29.
