Objective To investigate the protective effect of Danhong Injection(DI) on rats ischemia-reperfusion(I/R) injury after kidney transplantation.Methods Ten normal SD rats were allocated into the sham-operation group,and they were only been anesthetized and exposed kidneys for 45 minutes.The allogeneic male SD rats model of kidney transplantation were established.The qualified rats were divided into 3 groups(10 in each group)at random:I/R model group,DI pretreatment group,and DI treatment group.B1ood urea nitrogen(Bun) and creatinine(Cr) levels in each group were determined at the 24th hour after operation.The expression of Bax and Bcl-2 in kidney were quantitatively detected by immunohistochemistry.Apoptotic index was measured by TUNEL method.Results Compared with the sham-operation group,the apoptosis rate(P

Objective To establish human neural stem cells(HNSCs) model for further basic research and clinical application. Methods Cells from human fetal cerebral cortex were collected and cultured with serum free midium and then identified for nestin immunocytochemical staning;The cells were induced to differentiate by 5% fetal bovin serum and identified by neurofilament-200(NF-200) and glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) immunocytochemical staning. Results The harvested cells appeared as clusters in suspension and both NF-200 and GFAP positive cells were observed after induction.After 12 generations of culture,these cells retained the main characteristics of NSCs.Conclusions The HNSCs were harvested from human fetal cerebral cortex and this HNSCs model can be used for futher basic research and clinical applications.;

Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic autoimmune gastrointestinal disorder induced by ingestion of gluten-containing foods.In the past CD was thought prevalent only in Western countries,whereas it has been found common throughout the world and increasing numbers of Chinese patients has been reported recently.However,there are still many deficiencies in management of patients with CD in China and either the diagnosis or the treatment of CD is lacking evidence-based clinical pathway.We report a case of a young woman with CD presenting with chronic diarrhea,abdominal distention,and weight loss,whose outcome was improved by following evidence-based guidelines of medical nutrition therapy.Diagnosis and treatment of the patient was analyzed with review of foreign and domestic literature to provide readers reference of the standardized nutritional intervention of CD.

Three hundred patients with Graves′ disease (GD) were analysed according to clinical data, which showed a negative correlation between thyroid 131 I turnover and effective half life, suggesting that 131 I turnover is an important parameter for GD therapy of 131 I dose calculation, and a higher cure rate is found in GD patients whose 131 I turnover is less than 1.

Objective　To make a preliminary analysis of orthokeratology(OK) for treating myopia.Methods　OK lenses were chosen to treat myopia with or without astigmatism according to the myopia characterizations, then changes of their visions, refractions, corneal curvature and eccedtricities after being treated for ld, 1、2、3、4 weeks were observed once every 4weeks and were followed up for 18 months.Results　Significant changes were observed after being treated. Slight myopia: the diopters decreased-2.75D±0.50D,the horizontal meridians flattened 1.64±0.21, the vertical 0.92±0.27 and the eccedtricities declined 0.47±0.11; Middle myopia: the diopters decreased -5.50D±0.75D,the horizontal meridians flattened 2.16±0.45, the vertical 1.61±0.67, and the eccedtricities declined 0.38±0.07; High myopia:the diopters did -6.75D±0.50D,the horizontal did 3.86±0.56, the vertical 2.97±0.67 and the eccedtricities did 0.32±0.10. The predicabilities of slight and middle myopia were superior to high myopia's.Conclusion　Orthokeratology is a non-traumatic therapy and the clinical application should be careful and scientific.

Objective To evaluate the different methods,such as indirect immunefluorescence assay with HEp-2 cell substrate(HEp-2-IFA)or with liver substrate(Liver-IFA)and ELISA,for determining antinuclear antibody(ANA)as an indicator of SLE.Methods Medline,Embase and CBM were searched from 1990 to 2005.Thirteen articles that described ANA as an indicator of SLE were selected according to specified inclusion criteria.All data from these articles were evaluated systematically by RevMan software.Results The odds ratios(OR)of ANA detected by HEp-2-IFA or Liver-IFA or ELISA were 100.55(P

Objective To investigate the role of Ca~(2+) in the mechanism of ischemic preconditioning effects.Methods Fifty Sprague-Dawley male rats were divided into 5 groups randomly:IC group,ischemic control,IP group,ischemia followed by reperfusion;IP+Verapamil group,Bay k8644 group,Verapamil group.Results Siginificant heart functional recovery was observed in IP group as campared with that in IC group(P
