A nuclear accident likely leads to the leakage of radiocesium to a large degree,which could poses threatens to the environment and human heahh.Hence,it is very important to remove radiocesium ion from the environment and human body in the aftermath of a nuclear accident.In this review,the new progress of radiocesium ion removal in a nuclear emergency is discussed.The main technique to reduce soil pollution is to remove and purify topsoil.The methods of purification include leaching method,electrokinetic process and soil immobilization.The technique to remove radiocesium from water is mainly via adsorption.Common adsorbents include crown ether,calix ether,ammonium molybdophosphate and Prussian blue.Radiocesium removal from human body is mainly via oral administration of Prussian blue at fractioned doses in a timely manner but spents a relatively long response time,possibly accompanied with some severe side effects,like hypopotassemia and physical damage of digestive tract.Therefore,new techniques are still in need of development to remove radiocesium ion from human body more effectively.

Objective To study the effects of Qingjinkangkuoyin (QJKKY) on TNF-α and NE in rats with bronchiectasis.Methods Models were established by intrabronchially injecting with pseudomonas aeruginosa,and divided into 5 groups by random:the QJKKY high dose treatment group (given high dose of QJKKY into stomach),the QJKKY low dose treatment group (given low dose of QJKKY),the levofloxacin group (given levofloxacin),the model group (given normal saline),and the normal contrast group (given normal saline).After 2 weeks of treatment,the histopathology of lung tissue,the levels of TNF-α and inflammatory cells in peripheral blood and NE in rats' lung tissue were detected.Results Compared with the model group (160.425±9.9293)ng/L,QJKKY could decrease the level of TNF-α in blood significantly [high dose of QJKKY treatment group was (137.133±6.1646)ng/L,P＜0.05]; the expression of inflammatory cells in serum were decreased significantly by QJKKY [high dose of QJKKY treatment group was (1.106± 0.3580) 109/L,P＜0.05].Low dose of QJKKY treatment group was (1.086 ±0.2433) 109/L,(P＜0.05) ; the expression of NE in lung tissue were decreased remarkably by QJKKY [high dose of QJKKY treatment group(80.697 ±4.5877)ng/L,P＜0.05]; low dose of QJKKY treatment group is (80.747±3.6925)ng/L,(P＜0.05); and the histopathologic change of lung tissue in QJKKY treatment groups were ameliorated under light microscope by HE staining.Conclusion Qingjinkangkuoyin could cure bronchiectasis by decreasing the expression of TNF-αin peripheral blood and NE in rats' lung tissue.

Objective Abstract:Objective To inquire into the reason that chronic diabetic foot ulcer(CDF) was difficult to be cured by clarifying their interaction between interin-1?(IL-1?) and fibroblast proliferation,the activity and protein expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2),matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)in fibroblasts from CDF.Method Fibroblast collected from the edge area of the diabetic foot ulcer was cultured for 4-6 generations,and added in with different concentration of IL-1? at the 24 hr,48 hr and 72 hr,then the effect of IL-1? on the activity and expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in fibroblasts were observed by methods of zymography and Western blott.Results There was a significant difference of IL-1? between CDF and acute diabetic lesions(ADL);IL-1? in 0.5 ng/ml-5 ng/ml could promote fibroblast proliferation obviously,but weakened gradually with increasing of the IL-1?,but no affection on fibroblast proliferation when IL-1? was in 50 ng/ml,and inhabited fibroblast proliferation over 50 ng/ml of IL-1?;IL-1? in 50 ng/ml increased the activity and protein expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in fibroblasts from CDF. Conclusion The reason that CDF was difficult to be cured were related to significant increase of IL-1?.The increase of IL-1? not only inhibits the fibroblast proliferation,but also promotes the activity and protein expression of MMP-2 & MMP-9,and it results in the increase of extracellular matrix degradation.

To enhance the quality and efficiency of ozagrel by investigating the differences between the ozagrel polymorphs in bioavailability. Solid ozagrel in different polymorph forms were orally administered to SD rats. An HPLC method was established to determinate plasma level of ozagrel. The bioavailabilities of two polymorph forms were calculated and compared. The pharmacokinetic parameters of ozagrel, were as follows: Cmax was 32.72 ± 17.04 and 34.01 ± 19.13 mg · L(-1), respectively; AUC0-t was 61.14 ± 14.76 and 85.56 ± 18.08 mg · L(-1) · h, respectively; t½ was 1.53 ± 0.51 and 4.73 ± 3.00 h, respectively. There was no significant difference in pharmacokinetic parameters between form I and II polymorphs of ozagrel while the t½ of form II is longer, which indicates that the use of form II polymorph as pharmaceutical product may prolong the effective action time in clinics. This would help the polymorph quality control in drug production.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the association between cervical curvature and cervical sympathetic symptoms.

METHODSThe clinical data of 318 patients with cervical spondylosis who underwent surgical treatment in our department between July 2003 and December 2007 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into group without sympathetic symptoms (n = 284) and group with sympathetic symptoms (n = 34) . The curvatures of both groups on cervical lateral radiographs were measured using Borden method and statistical analysis was performed.

RESULTSThe incidence of abnormal cervical curvature in group with cervical sympathetic symptoms were 67.6% (23/34), which was significantly higher than that in group without cervical sympathetic symptoms (50.7%, 144/284) (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONCervical curvature abnormality may be an independent factor that affects the cervical sympathetic symptoms.
