Objective To evaluate right ventricular(RV) myocardial profile changes in hypertensive heart disease (HHD) with normal pulmonary pressure by pulsed wave tissue Doppler imaging(PW-TDI) technique,and to assess right ventricular function.Methods Group Ⅰ was normal control,20 cases,average age (54?7) years old,while group Ⅱ was primary hypertensive heart disease,20 cases,average age (58?8) years old.PW-TDI technique was used to measure the peak systolic,early diastolic,late diastolic velocities(Sm,Em,Am) of right atrio-ventricular ring,the ratio of Em/Am,right ventricular isovolume contracting time(RIVCT) and isovolume relaxation time(RIVRT).The systolic and early and late diastolic motorial amplitude(SD,DED,DAD) were measured by M-mode echocardiography.Results In groupⅡ: Em decreased [( 16.0? 2.7)cm/s vs ( 19.5? 3.4)cm/s,P

Object to define defects of drug accurately and to initially discuss its law responsibility. Method With comparative study and system thinking,we acquired few scientific recognition of drug’s defects. Result & Conclusion Defects of drug are not equal to negative drug reaction. The former one should be an unreasonable and potential risk which induces no expectant therapeutic efficacy to provide. And its law responsibility could be no-fault liability accompanied by state compensation.

Objective: To observe the effect of imbalanced BCAA on metabolism of gastric cancer cell line 800-7901 in Vitro. Methods: L-Valine(L-Val) of MEM culture medium Were restricted to serial levels of 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 or 1/16 concentration of normal With increased L-Leucine(L-Leu) concentration to 1 fold, 2 folds cc 4 folds respectively. Gastric poor differentiated cancer cell line 800-7901 and fetal liver cell were cultured in these culture media. Morphologic character of two cell lines were observed everyday. Total protein mounts were recorded on the 3nd day and 5th day of incubation. Consuming volume of L-Val , L-Les and glucose of 800-7901 were detected respectively. Results :Restricted L-Val to less than 1/8 concentration retard 300-7901 cell's growth, reduced protein volume of SGC-7901. 300-7901 cell required more glucose when L-Val supply was subtracted. At same restricted level of L-Val, increasing L-Val to 4 times increased their glucose utilization. Few effect en fetal liver cell growth was found Con-elusion: Increasing L-Leu and restricting L-Val supply can inhibit growth of cancer cell. Gastric cancer uptake high mount of L-Val for both protein synthesis end energy supply through gluconeogenesis.

Objective To investigate the regularity and significance of serum interleukin-6(IL-6) levels in the patients with sepsis.Methods Forty sepsis patients with APACHEⅡ scores over 12 and 30 normal controls were involved in the study.The IL-6 levels in serum were detected with radio-immunity analysis assay and the correlations among the IL-6 levels,the prognosis and APACHEⅡ score were investigated.Results In the patients with sepsis,the average level of IL-6 in serum was(152.02?55.77) pg/ml,which was significantly higher than that of the control group [(85.79?30.96) pg/ml](P

Objective To identify the inclusion compound of ginsenoside Rh2 with hydroxylpropyl-?-cyclodextrin (HP-?-CD) in aqueous solution, and to investigate the change of thermodynamic parameters during the inclusion process. Methods The measurements of the inclusion mechanism, inclusion molar ratio of the host and guest molecules, and change of thermodynamic parameters were carried out by the following methods separately; thin layer chromatography (TLC), differential scanning calorimetry (OSC), infrared (IR) spectrometry, phase solubility method, and thermodynamic method, respectively. Results That all the phase solubility diagrams showed a typical AL-type in various temperatures and suggested the formation of a soluble complex of 1∶1 molar ratio. TLC and IR Spectroscopy confirmed that the significant interaction between the host and guest molecules was probably due to the inclusion of aglycone of Rh2 molecule into the hydrophobic cavity of HP-?-CD molecule. The change in the thermodynamic parameters suggested that the inclusion could proceed spontaneously (?G

BACKGROUND: Prevention of implant from inflammation was an effective method to reduce expulsion rate of stainless steel micro-screw implant, and develop new type of antibiotic material.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the cytotoxicity of a new type of antibiotic stainless steels.METHODS: Metal test samples (antibiotic stainless steel, medical stainless steel, and medial pure titanium) were made into rectangular solids with length of 15 mm × 10 mm × 3 mm. Samples were cleaned with high temperature and high pressure. Alloy leaching liquor was prepared with DMEM culture media according to the ratio betwean surface area and volume of culture solution (3 cm~2/mL). The leaching liquor was maintained in incubator at 37 ℃ for 96 hours, and then degerming was performed using microporous membrane. 6.4% phenol was added, which was considered as the positive control group, and DMEM culture media was considered as the blank control group. Growth of MG63 cells was observed under inverted phase contrast microscope;absorbanca of cells cultured for 24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 hours was detected using MTT test; cytotoxicity of antibiotic stainless steels was evaluated.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: ① At 24 hours after culture, calls in the positive control group was abnormal; while, cells in other groups were well adherent-grew. ② After 48 hours of culture, with the culture time increased,cytotoxicity was detected out in the positive control group; cells in other groups and blank control groups were normal and grew well. Afew of cells in stainless steels group showed karyopyknosis. ③ The absorbance was the highest of medical pure titanium, and then of antibiotic stainless steel and of medical stainless steel, while there was no significant difference between the three materials. ④ The level of cytotoxicity was grade 0. The results suggested that the antibiotic stainless steel which had the same cytotoxicity grade as medical stainless steel and pure titanium was in line with the requirement of its clinical application.

Objective To explore the clinical features of subcutaneous fluid collection and post-operative headache after craniotomy and assess the efficacy and side effects of the millimeter wave treatment.MethodsA total of 32 neurosurgical patients with post-operative subcutaneous fluid collection were involved in this study and divided into traditional and millimeter wave treatment groups randomly. Subcutaneous fluid volume after 3 days, time for complete fluid absorption, time of hospital stay, incidence of related infections and severe headache between two groups were assessed.ResultsThe fluid reduction is 93.8% in the millimeter wave treatment group and 76.5% in the traditional treatment group 3 days after treatment (P<0.05); time for complete fluid absorption was also shorter in the millimeter wave treatment group; there is no infection in the millimeter wave treatment group and 3 cases in the traditional treatment group, millimeter wave treatment also reduced the occurrence of severe post-operative headache; there is no treatment-related side-effects in the millimeter treatment group.ConclusionMillimeter wave treatment is an efficacious and safe method for subcutaneous fluid collection after craniotomy, and can reduce the occurrences of related infections and post-operative pain.
