Objective To investigate the effect of obesity on physical stamina of college students.Methods The physical stamina and obese status of 7353 college students were measured. The relationship between obese degrees and the scores of step trial, vital capacity, grip, standing long jump was analyzed.Results The male's and female's vital capacity score was obesity students > pre-obesity students > normal students > thin students ( P<0.01). The male's step trail score was the normal body weight students and pre-obesity students > obese students ( P<0.05). The male and female's standing long jump score was normal students > pre-obesity students > obesity students ( P<0.05). The male and female's grip score was obesity students > pre-obesity students > normal students > thin students ( P< 0.05 ).Conclusion The lung function and the arm power of college students are increasing with the rise of obese degrees. The heart function and breakout force are decreasing with the rise of obese degrees.

The study aims to characterize and compare interferon reference standards from 5 manufacturers. By testing molecular mass and trypsin-digested peptide mass mapping, the amino acid sequence was verified and post-translational modifications such as disulfide bond were identified. Results show that the molecular mass and amino acid sequence were consistent with theory; the disulfide bonds of 4 lots of interferon were Cys1-Cys98/Cys29-Cys138, 1 lot was Cys29-Cys139/Cys86-Cys99; N-terminal "+Met", acetyl N-terminal and Met oxidation were identified in part of the sample. UPLC-MS can be used to characterize and compare interferon reference standards from different manufacturers.

Objective To study lymph node micrometastasis in N0 colorectal cancer patients and its clinical significance. Methods In this study, 548 lymph nodes obtained from 62 cases of No colorectal cancer undergoing curative operation were examined by fluorescent quantity polymerase chain reaction assay for the expression of cytokeratin 20 (CK20) mRNA. Results Micrometastasis was detected in 55 lymph nodes (10.0% ) of 24 cases (39%). According to lymph node anatomical locations, micrometastasis was identified in 15. 8%, 5.0% and 3.3% lymph nodes in group Ⅰ ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ (grouped by the distance from the tumor), respectively. Micrometastasis was correlated with invasion depth of primary tumor, but was notrelated to gender, age, tumor size, tumor site and differentiation. Conclusions The expression of CK20mRNA in lymph nodes in patients with No coloreetal cancer could be used to improve the accuracy of clinical staging, and provide information for rational adjuvant therapy.

Objective To evaluate the femur biomechanical changes of finite analysis with different femoral stem ex-tension implants in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods The full-length femoral CT scan was performed in selected healthy volunteers. The femoral digital model was established with Mimics 10.0 and Geomagic Studio 10.0 software. The models of femoral prosthesis and stem extension implant were created by laser scanner. According to the common three hip loading modes (1 586 N, 1 690 N and 2 132 N), the maximum principal stress (MPS), the maximum principal elastic deforma-tion (MPES) and MPES distribution changes were recorded and analyzed by three-dimensional finite element analysis with ANSYS Workbench13.0 software. Results The MPS values before TKA were 98.54, 147.36 and 143.51 MPa respectively when values of femoral head loading were 1 586 N, 1 690 N and 2 132 N. With the increase in the length of the femoral pros-thesis extension rod, the MPS and MPES showed a decreasing trend. There was a positive correlation between free femur ra-tio (FFR) and MPES (P<0.05). The MPES distribution was gradually concentrated at the top point of femur stem extension implant with the increase in the length of the femoral prosthesis extension rod. Conclusion The values of MPS and MPES were gradually decreased with the increase in the length of the femoral stem extension implant. There was a positive linear correlation between FFR and MPES. The stress concentration was focused obviously at the top end of femoral stem extension implant with its length more than 120 mm.

AIM: To analyze the genotype of the allele distribution of a polymorphic G-954C within the 5 upstream promoter region of the nitric oxide synthetase 2A gene (NOS2A) in samples of diabetic retinopathy in patients with cystoid macular edema in the mainland of China.METHODS: Eighty-nine patients with diabetic retinopathy and cystoid macular edema and 90 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. Nest polymerase chain reaction (PCR)was performed, and restriction endonudease digestion and gene fragments sequence were examined to detect the genotype of NOS24 G-954C.RESULTS: The genotypes of the sample population of 89 cases and 90 healthy controls were all detected as GG.CONCLUSION: The distribution of G-954C of NOS2A polymorphism are at a lower frequency in China, with little relevancy to the frequency of diabetic retinopathy combined with cystoid macular edema.

mRNAs of alpha-adrenoceptor (α-AR) subtypes are found in neurons in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and change after peripheral nerve injury. In this study, the distribution of α-AR subtype proteins was studied in L5 DRG of normal rats and rats with chronic constriction injury of sciatic nerve (CCI). Using immunofluorescence technique, it was found that α1A-, α1B-, and α2A-AR proteins were expressed in large, medium, and small size neurons in normal DRG, and significantly increased in all size neurons 14 days after CCI. α1D- and α2C-AR was also expressed in all size neurons in normal DRG. However, α1D-AR was significantly increased and α2C-AR was decreased in small size neurons 14 days post CCI. α2B-AR neurons were not detectable in normal and CCI DRG. Co-expression of α1A- and α2A-AR in the same neuron was observed in normal DRG and increased post CCI. Collectively, these results indicated that there is distinct distribution of α-AR subtypes in DRG neurons, and the distribution and levels of expression of α-AR subtypes change differently after CCI. The up-regulation of α-AR subtypes in DRG neurons may play an important role in the process of generating and transmitting neuropathic pain.

Objective To investigate the effects of vincristine on myoelectric activity and motility of the small intestine in conscious rats and its mechanism. Methods Seventy-two SD rats were divided into six groups. The rats in control group were received 0.9% NaCl solution (n=18). The rats in group B were injected with vincristine and subdivided into 0.25 mg/kg(n=6) ,0.5 mg/kg(n=6)and 0.75 mg/kg groups. The group C and D was false operation (n=6)and false operation plus injection with 0.75 mg/kg of vincristine(n=6), respectively. The group E and F was subdiaphragmatic vagotomy plus 0.9% NaCl (n=6) or subdiaphragmatic vagotomy plus 0.75 mg/kg of vincristine (n=6), respectively. The myoelectric activity and motility of the small intestine were recorded. The frequency and area under the curve of slow wave, the periodicity of the migrating myoelectrie complex (MMC) and the duration of MMC Ⅲ were analyzed. The expressions of the myenteric neurons and interstitial cells of Cajal were evaluated by immunofluorescence stain. Results The myoelectric activity in 0.25mg/kg group was not different from the controls, but it changed in 0.5 mg/kg and 0.75 mg/kg groups which correlated with the time of vincristine injection. The irregular spike activity arose and accompanied with disruption of the MMC at (51±14.27) minutes,but recovered at (78.33±13.08) minutes. The periodicity was shorter in 0.5mg/kg [(343.17±142.93)s]and 0.75 mg/kg groups [(302.67±66.67)s] compared with controls [(740.22± 98.92) s, F=31.325, P<0.01]. Three days after vincristine administration, the area under the curve of slow wave decreased to (2.56±0.30) mV·s in 0.5 mg/kg group and (2.57±0.56) mV·s in 0.75 mg/kg group compared with the controls ((4.10±0.80) mV·s , F = 11.442, P<0.01). The intestinal propulsive rate was lower in 0.75 mg/kg group compared with the controls [(33.59±1.43) vs(60.34±2.41)%,t= 23.36, P<0.01]. The expression of the interstitial cells of Cajal was less than those in controls. Three days later, the area under the curve of slow wave in F group was less than that in controls. Conclusions Vincristine provokes alterations of myoelectric activity and motility of the small intestine. The early vincristine-induced escalating in myoelctric activity of the small intestine is through vagus nerve pathway. The decreased motility is contributed to the damage of the interstitial cells of Cajal.
