Purpose　To explore the effects of antibiotics and herbs with removing pathogenic heat from blood on ovarian granulosa cell morphological and functions in female rats.　Methods　The granulosa cell of 30 d age SD female rats was collected,several drugs were added to the culture fluid.The culture fluid were collected to measure the sex hormone by radioimmunoassay.The cell organs of granulosa cell were measured by transmission electron microscope.　Results　Organs of the granulosa cell almost disappeared and perinuclear vesicle were founded in Amikacin sulfate group and Rhizoma zedoariae group.The progesterone levels were lower than in salline group (P<0.05).The estrogen levels of Amikacin group were lower than in saline group (P<0.05).　Conclusions　Ovarian function were obstructed in female rats when Amikacin,Rhizoma zedoariae were directly used.

Objective To study the diagnosis and therapy of Hashimoto's disease (HD) with thyroid nodule. Methods The clinical data of 187 patients with nodulous Hashimoto's disease who had operation in our hospital from 1995 to 2008 were analysed retrospectively. Results The nodules coexisting with Hashimoto's disease were thyroid carcinoma, nodular goiter, thyroid follicular adenoma and lymphoma accounting for 11.2% (21/187), 26.7% (50/187), 15% (28/187) and 1.6% (3/187) respectively. Conclusions HD patients with thyroid nodules especially the single nodule that can not be distinguished from cancer should have operation in time. Ultrasound guided needle aspiration will be helpful for the preoperative diagnosis and the frozen section may guide the surgical modality.

Objective To discuss repairing effects of articular cartilage defects by nitric oxide synthase inhibitor (S-methylisothiourea, SMT), and explore the role of nitric oxide in cartilage repair. Methods Full-thickness defects of cartilage were created in the intercondylar trochlear groove of femur of thirty-six adult New Zealand white rabbits, and were divided into three groups. Twenty-four defects were untreated as the control, twenty-four were filled with fibrin glue and impregnated with rhBMP as rhBMP group, the rest twenty-four were filled with fibrin glue and impregnated with rhBMP, and hypodermic injection with SMT as SMT group. The animals were sacrified at sixteen weeks postoperatively, and the gross appearance of the defect was estimated. The repair tissue was examined histologically and was evaluated according to the grading scale of histology. The amount of released NO and the activities of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) were examined by chemical colorimetry. The distribution of type-Ⅰ,Ⅱcollagen were examined by Sirius-Red. The proteoglycan synthesis was assessed by incorporation of radio-labelled sodium sulphate Na35SO42-. RT-PCR examined the expression of iNOSmRNA and MMP9mRNA. Results The filled extent of the defect in SMT group and rhBMP group had no significant difference from the control group, and the marginal integration, cellular morphology, architecture within the defect and subchondral plate repair were better than the untreated defects (P

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravitreous injection with triamcinolone acetonide (TA) for cystoid macular edema (CME) due to central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). Methods Fourteen eyes of 14 patients with CME due to CRVO underwent intravitreous injection with 0.1 ml TA (40 mg/ml). Best-corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP), slitlamp examination, fundus fluorescein angiography, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were performed on the patients before and after the injection. The follow-up period was 10-22.4 months, with the mean of 15.9 months. Results The average visual acuity was 0.1 before the treatment; while 1 month and 3 months after the injection, the visual acuity of all of the patients improved, including ≥0.2 in 71.43% and 63.6% of the patients, respectively, and ≥0.5 in 42.9% and 27.3%, respectively. After then, the visual acuity of some patients decreased, and in the final visit, 4 eyes (28.6%) had a visual acuity of ≥0.2, and 1 eye (7.1%) of ≥0.5. Compared with that before the treatment, the visual acuity of 10 (71.4%) eyes improved and 4 (28.6%) eyes declined. One month after the treatment, the macular edema disappeared in 10 eyes (71.4%) and alleviated in 4 (28.6%). In the final visit, macular edema disappeared in 4 eyes, alleviated in 9, and aggravated in 1. In the follow-up duration, high IOP [22.3-40.1 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa)]. In the final visit, posterior subcapsular cataract was found in 7 eyes. Conclusion Intravitreous injection with TA may be effective in reducing CME and enhancing the visual acuity in a short term with high IOP in some eyes. In the long-term follow-up period, the rate of recurrence of CME and incidence of posterior subcapsular cataract is high.

Objective To study the effect of nitric oxide synthase inhibitors S methylisothiorurea (SMT) on cartilage metabolism after intraarticular injection of interleukin 1? (IL 1?) and lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in rabbits.Methods The experiments were performed in three groups:normal group,control group and SMT group.The effects of SMT on IL 1? and LPS induced iNOS mRNA expression ,NO production and NOS activity in synovium,synovial fluid and cartilage were detected after 8 h.Proteoglycan synthesis was measured by ex vivo incorporation of Na 2 35 SO 4 into cartilage after 48 h.Results IL 1? and LPS induced iNOS mRNA expression and increased NO release;SMT could reduce NO release and inhibit iNOS mRNA expression in synovium,synovial fluid and cartilage,and partly restore proteoglycan synthesis of cartilage.Conclusion iNOS inhibitor SMT can protect IL 1? and LPS induced cartilage damage in high concentration.

CONCLUSION Propafenone, maybe, also exerts its effects via blocking Kv4 2 and Kv4 3 current to antiarrhythmia.

Purpose To investigate the influence of single slow intravenous infusion of dexmedetomidine (Dex) on femoral artery color Doppler hemodynamics during the induction of general anesthesia. Materials and Methods Forty patients of elective abdominal surgery under general anesthesia were elected and randomly divided into Dex group and the control group, with 20 cases in each group. Dex (0.2 μg/kg) 20 ml was injected with intravenous infusion in Dex group, and 20 ml saline was infused in control group, the infusion time was 10 min;then intravenous injection of Sufentanil, Propofol and Rocuronium were performed in turn for the induction of general anesthesia and endotracheal intubation. Femoral artery peak systolic velocity (Vs), early diastolic reverse peak velocity (Vd), systolic diameter (Ds), diastolic diameter (Dd), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) changes at each time point were observed and recorded. Results ① Compared with baseline, Vs increased and Vd decreased (P<0.05) 10 min after the infusion of Dex in Dex group;after induction, Vs and Vd in both of the two groups decreased, and the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05);Vs reduced significantly in both of the two groups at the intubation moment and 1, 3, 5 min after intubation, but the Dex group changed more smoothly (P<0.05), and Vd raised in both groups with the Dex group changing more smoothly (P>0.05);Ds and Dd of both groups did not change significantly at each time point (P>0.05). ② Compared with baseline, MAP and HR decreased (P<0.05) after the infusion of Dex in Dex group;after induction, MAP and HR of both groups decreased, and the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05); MAP and HR increased in both groups at intubation moment, but the Dex group changed more smoothly than the control group (P<0.05).③SBP, DBP and HR were negatively correlated with Vs (r=-0.507,-0.619,-0.750, P<0.05) in both groups; SBP, DBP and HR were positively correlated with Vd (r=0.821, 0.881, 0.883, P<0.05) in both groups;there was no significant correlation (r=0.419, P>0.05) between Vs and Vd. Conclusion Single slow intravenous infusion of Dex (0.2μg/kg) can accelerate the femoral artery Vs and slow down the Vd, resulting in more stable hemodynamics during the induction of general anesthesia.

Aim To explore the effect of sesquiterpene lactone parthenolide(PL) on primary multiple myeloma(MM) cell and cell lines and its molecular mechanisms.Methods Fresh bone marrow cells from MM patients and MM cell lines KMM-1 and MM1S were used for in vitro culture study.The cell survival rate was examined by Trypan Blue exclusion.The change of nucleolus stained with DAPI was observed under fluorescent microscope.Reactive oxygen species(ROS) levels and mitochondrial membrane potential(MMP) were detected by flow cytometry.Results 2.5 ?mol?L-1 PL induced MM cell apoptosis and MMP was profoundly decreased in KMM-1 and MM1S cells.In contrast,normal lymphocytes cells were unaffected by the same conditions.KMM-1 and MM1S cells showed large increases of ROS levels 10 h after 2.5 ?mol?L-1 PL treatment.The free radical scavenger L-N-acetylcystein(L-NAC) pretreatment completely inhibited ROS generation,cell death and nuclear fragmentation by PL.Diphenylene iodonium chloride(DPI) pretreatment in a dose of 2.5 ?mol?L-1 strongly inhibited PL-mediated ROS generation,nuclear fragmentation in KMM-1 and MM1S cells.Conclusions PL strongly induces apoptosis in MM cell,while normal lymphocytes cells are completely unaffected by the same conditions.Since its proapoptotic activity appears to be mediated through induction of oxidative stress in MM cells,its possible mechanism is that NADPH oxidase activation is involved in PL-mediated ROS generation.
