Some types of bacteria swim through rotating their flagella. The swimming mechanism of bacteria during flagella bundling and tumble process is analyzed. The effects of body rotation and flagellum′s polymorphic transitions on bundling processes and the wall effect phenomenon are also discussed. Finally, based on dynamics similarity, a new microrobot module is put forward to further studying the flagella swimming phenomena. The research would be very helpful for constructing the bionic swimming robots under the low Reynolds number.

Objective To summarize the experience in treating coronary artery fistula (CAF) by using Guglielmi detachable coils. Methods During the period from July 2009 to November 2014 at the Affiliated Changhai Hospital of Second Military Medical University, interventional treatment of CAF by using Guglielmi detachable coils was performed in 40 patients. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. The feasibility, safety and effectiveness of this technique were evaluated. Results Successful transcatheter closure of CAF with Guglielmi detachable coils was achieved in all 40 patients; the average Guglielmi detachable coils used in each patient was(2.33±1.38) coils. No procedure-related complications occurred. Intra-operative angiography showed that residual shunt completely disappeared in 12 patients (30%) and blood flow was significantly decreased in 28 patients (70%). All the patients were followed up for 1-65 months, neither complications such as recurrent bleeding and ischemia nor stenosis and occlusion of related arteries, or fistula cavity rupture occurred. Conclusion The use of Guglielmi detachable coil in interventional treatment of CAF is safe and effective, although its long-term effect needs to be further verified.

Objective To find an efficient plan for the arrangement of the beds in hospital so that the beds-operating efficiency can be raised and the requirement of patients can be perfectly met. Methods According to the data analyzed via the method of mathematical statistics, optimizing model was built and automatic stimulation program was generated as well as conducted by matlab software. Results The characteristics of bed-occupation condition was acquired by data analysis, the result of optimizing model was stimulated by program and the most efficient plan emerges which was obviously better than the original FCFS (First Come First Serve) Plan. Conclusion The mathematical model built up is of great maneuverability in the practical situation to ameliorate the management efficiency of hospital beds considerably.

Objective To observe the effect of antisense hypoxia inducible factor-1?(HIF-1?) on (chemosensitivity) of human pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3 under hypoxia. Methods BxPC-3 cells were divided into 3 groups:(1)BxPC-3 cells were non-transfected with antisense HIF-1? plasmid and exposed to 0.5% O_2 for 4hr(hypoxia control);(2)normoxic BxPC-3 cells were non-transfected with antisense(HIF-1?) plasmid(normoxia control);(3)BxPC-3 cells were transfected with antisense HIF-1? plasmid and exposed to 0.5% O_2 for 4hr(experimental group).Expression of HIF-1? and survivin was detected by RT-PCR and Western Blot.Growth inhibition rates and apoptosis rates of BxPC-3 cells under different(dosages) of chemotherapeutic agents(5-fluorouracil,doxorubicin and gemcitabine) were measured by MTT(colorimetric) assay and flow cytometry (FCM).Results Expression of HIF-1? was obviously down-regulated and at the same time susvivin expression was markedly down-regulated in experimental group(P

Objective To explore the significance and important measure of integrative treatment of multiple trauma patients with severe craniocerebral injury in emergency center. Methods One hundred and forty-eight multiple trauma patients with severe craniocerebral injury in emergency center from November 2002 to February 2006 were analysed retrospectively. Result In total 148 cases, 72 were cured and 26 dead, 7 were in status of plant man, 17 experienced severe deformity, and 26 did mild deformity. Conclusion Multiple trauma patients with severe craniocerebral injury usually experience a serious situation and rapid development. Therefore emergency doctors are required for organizing salvage of such patients, at the same time treatment and diagnosis are implemented. Firstly the most important key to successful salvage is appropriate disposal of fatal injury and early elimination of shock. Proper surgical choice, especially at the first time, inspection and protection of visceral functions, and attention to nutritional support are other vital methods to gain more successful salvage. ICU is also emphasized for its essentiality.

Objective To investigate the anti-migratory and anti-invasive effect of somatostatin receptor type 2(SSTR2) gene transfection mediated by adenovirus in human pancreatic carcinoma cell and the mechanisms involved in this effect.Methods The full length human SSTR2 cDNA was introduced into pancreatic cancer cell line BXPC-3 by adenovirus-mediated transfection,and stable expression of RNA and protein of SSTR2 were detected by RT-PCR and Westen-blot.The Matrigel coated Transwell was used to detect the migratory and invasive ability of SSTR2expressing cells,Adv-GFP control cells and mock control cells.Furthermore,the expressions of matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2(TIMP-2) were detected by RT-PCR method in these cells.Results The stable expression of SSTR2 was detected in BXPC-3 cells transfected by Adv-GFP-SSTR2.A dramatic decrease of BXPC-3 expressing SSTR2 cell(migrated) through a Matrigel-coated filter was observed,as compared with Adv-GFP control cells and mock control cells(P

Objective To explore the expression and clinical significance of EphA2 and E-cadherin in (pancreatic) cancer tissue and cells.Methods The expression of EphA2 and E-cadherin in 56 pancreatic(carcinomas) and 23 adjacent noncancer tissues were studied by immunohistochemistry,and their relationship to clinicopathological characteristics were analyzed.RT-PCR was performed to explore the expression of EphA2,BXPC-3,PC-3 and PANC-1 in pancreatic carcinoma cell lines.Results In pancreatic carcinomas tissuse showed increased EphA2 expression and reduced E-cad expression which compared with adjacent noncancer tissues.The expression level of EphA2 had a significant positive relationship with tumor differentiation degree,lymphatic metastasis and clinical stage.However,the expression level of E-cadherin had negative relationship with both the tumor clinical stage and lymphatic invasion.Furthermore,a significant negative relationship(between) the expression of EphA2 and E-cadherin was observed.The expressions of EphA2 were higher in high-invasive cell lines PXPC-3 and Panc-1 than in low-invasive cell line PC-3.Conclusions The(expression) and/or abnormal function of EphA2 and E-cadherin may together be involved in the development and progression of pancreatic cancer;the combined measurement of these two proteins may be useful for(determination) of metastatic potency of pancreatic carcinoma.

Objective To explore a kind of modified peritoneal dialysis (PD) adapt for acute renal failure (ARF) in children. Methods After punctured many pinholes in tail end and sterilized by ethylene oxide the ID 2. 5 tracheal tube and urinary catheter were used as PD - catheter for children. The tracheal tube or urinary catheter was placed in abdomen with Seldinger's techniques Then the PD was carried out in the way that dialysis solution passing in and out of abdomen in two different pipelines Results The edema, circulation and respiration of the 21 children with ARF were improved after PD in this way and the urine quantity increased too, although 5 of them died of D1C and MOSF. No peritonitis or leakage of PD solution was taken place. The Scr.BUN,UA,K + ,CO2- CP of the chidren were decreased from(424? 133)?mol/L,(41.5? 12 6) mmol/L, (764 ? 187) ?mol/L,(6 7 ?2. 1) mmol/L, (14 5 ? 3.7) mmol/L before PD to( 166?37) ?mot/L,(8.9?3 1) mmol/L,(350?74) ?mol/L,3.7?0 4 mmol/L,(23.0? 1. 8) ?mol/L.Conclusion Tracheal tube or urinary catheter may be used as PD- catheter for ARF in children.
