Female rats were divided into three groups: 1) LI group, receiving low iodine diet and distilled water; 2) NI group being fed with the same food as LI group and distilled water supplemented with potassium iodide; and 3) N group,taking usual diet and tap water. T4 5'-deiodinase, T, and T4 content in whole brain homogenate and serum T, and T4 level of the young animals delivered by the above-mentioned rats were analyzed. Deiodinase activity was expressed in terms'of T3→T4 conversion rate (CR). The results showed that the average CR in rat brain homogenates of LI group was significantly higher than those of the other two groups, it is 2.73 times of that in N group. There were no significant differences among the three groups in serum T3 concentration and T3 content of brain homogenate. But serum T4 concentration of LI group was only 10.9% of that in N group and brain homogenate T4 level was also lower, being only 38.5% of the latter. It suggested that T4 5'-deiodinase in the immature rat brain is more effective than in adult one on modulating thyroid hormone function in brain. Thus, the increased activity of brain T4 5'-deiodinase may compensate for the decreased T4 pool, maintaining a normal brain T3 content in congenital iodine-deficient rat.

Aim: To establish a method for the determination of pantoprazole sodium and its related substances. Methods: A column packed with octadecylsiance bonded silica gel (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 pjn) was used. The 0. 01 mol/L monopotassium phosphate solution( adjusted with phosphoric acid to pH 7. 0) -acetonitrile were adopted as the mobile phase, a gradient elution was programmed as follows: 0→30 min(90:10-60:40), 30→45 min(60: 40→15: 85); the detection wavelength was 289 nm; the column temperature was 40 ℃; the flow rate was 1. 0 mL/min. Results: Pantoprazole sodium, the intermediates and its related substances could be well separated. A good linear relationship was obtained over the range of 6. 96-48. 72 μg/mL( r =0. 999 9). The limit detection and quantisation of pantoprazole sodium were 8.51 ng and 17.0 ng, respectively. Conclusion: This method can be applied to control the related substances of pantoprazole sodium and determine pantoprazole sodi-um.

The authors have applied the Omaha system in six different researches conducted in Hong Kong and mainland China in the last ten years. These researches have been conducted using different client groups,specialty nurses,and in the hospital,clinic and community settings. The Omaha system was found to be instrumental in serving as a conceptual framework for study,designing the intervention protocol,identifying clients' health problems,defining nursing interventions and evaluating research outcomes. The Omaha system is a valuable tool for research and practice and is worth exploring further for its application in mainland China,particularly in the areas of community nursing and transitional care.

Objective:To study the phenotypes of T cell in patients with Hashimoto thyrioditis (HT) and to analyze its relationship with the impairment of follicles, so as to provide evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods: Totally 136 HT specimens were obtained by fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) and were divided morphologically(L, P, O type). The serum parameters (TPOAb, TGAb, TSH) were tested, and 20 cases with nontoxic goiter were taken as control. Immuno-histochemical assay was performed with 60 specimens and FCM (Flow cytometry ) was used to study 23 specimens. The T cell infiltration and the distribution of CD3+ . CD4+ . and CD8+ T cells were compared between all types of HT tissues. The correlationship between the atrophic degree of follicle with T lymphocytes infiltration and phenotype was analyzed. Results: It was found that L type (n = 58) and P type (n = 28) had more serious follicle atrophy than that of O type (n = 20) (P

This paper is to report our study in which the differences between prosthetic restoration and surgical reconstruction using traditional clasp retention technology were analyzed based on three-dimensional finite element methods in our laboratory. Firstly, the maxillary unilateral defect model was developed using medical image processing software MIMICS. Secondly, the prosthesis was generated by mirroring technology. The clasp was designed according to the methods raised by Aramany. Then, the stress distribution of maxilla was calculated by simulating occlusion. According to the results, after osseointegration of surgical reconstruction, stresses of unaffected abutments were reduced significantly, and less stress of junction occurred near zygoma of affected side, which were all less than stresses of prosthesis restoration. Thus, removing the clasp of surgical reconstruction increased the stresses of unaffected abutments. The stress trends of maxillary components were different between prosthetic restoration and surgical reconstruction. Surgical reconstruction is better than prosthesis restoration in protection of the abutments. Clasp can alleviate the occlusal burden of maxilla. Varieties of retentive technologies can be considered in prosthesis restoration. The surgical reconstruction is more conducive to rehabilitate unilateral maxilla biomechanically in clinic.

Objective To investigate the effect and the mechanism of different G-CSF-priming protocols on leukemia cell lines (HL-60 and U937) in vitro and provide the clinical guidance to clinical treatment of acute leukemia.Methods The leukemia cell lines HL-60 and U937 were used as model to detect the effects of three drugs alone and combined two drugs (HA) or three drugs (HAG) respectively.Cell viability and cell growth inhibition were performed by cell count kit-8 (CCK-8) assay.Apoptotic marker AnnexinV/PI,cell membrane surface antigen CD11b,cell cycle,mitochondrial membrane potential (JC-1) and Caspase-3 were determined by flow cytometry.Results After using of HAG for 48 h,HL-60 and U937 cells counts were decreased significantly and the apoptotic marker Annexin V was significantly increased. To compare the single drug group with two drug combination group,the result was significantly different (P ＜0.05),and the apoptosis of U937 cells was higher than HL-60 cell line.CD11b expression among the three groups did not change (P ＞ 0.05).Using of CAG and MAG,the mitochondrial nembrane potential of HL-60 and U937cells was increased,the three-drug combination group was significantly higher than single-drug group and control group (P ＜0.05); Caspase-3 was activated,the fluorescence intensities of Caspase-3 of the three-drug combination group and single drug group were significantly higher (P ＜0.05) comparing with the control group.Conclusion HAG regimen could induce leukemia cells to apoptosis through the reduction of mitochondrial membrane potential and the activation of Caspase-3 to induce apoptosis of leukemia cells.
