Objective:This study aimed to identify the morphology of mast cells by using a modified toluidine blue staining scheme,so as to provide a powerful reference for the experimental basis research of mast cells.Methods:Bone marrow-derived mast cells were induced in vitro.After 4 weeks,the cells were collected,fixed,and stained.Mast cells were fixed at different temperature during different time.The optimum condition was determined by comparing the effects of toluidine blue staining.Results:Bone marrow cells were induced to differentiate into mast cells by SCF and IL-3 in vitro.When mast cells were stained with modified toluidine blue staining,the staining effect was better.Mast cells were round or oval and the cell membrane was complete and the cytoplasm was filled with a large number of purple particles.Conclusion:In this study,we successfully applied a modified toluidine blue staining method to mast cells cultured in vitro.The results showed that the condition at 37 ℃ full fixation with staining could reduce the degeneration of mast cells.This method was easy to operate with good stability.It was suitable for the morphological observation of mast cells cultured in vitro.

Objective To compare the effect of thin-sliced enhanced CT scanning and 3D-DSA data sources in the 3 D printing data reconstruction of intracranial arteriovenous malformation (AVM ). Methods Five patients with AVM were selected prospectively,3 were Spetzler-Martin grade II and 2 were grade III. Two of them used 256-slice spiral CT thin slice enhanced scanning. Three used the 3D-DSA rotating imaging,and the DICOM raw data of the examination results were extracted. Digital processing was performed by using the Mimics software,and the 3 D printing was performed according to the ratio of 1∶1 obtaining the solid model and the effects were compared. Results Using the data source 3 D printing of 256 slice spiral CT thin-slice enhanced scan could obtained skull and blood vessel image information and could reveal the smallest diameter of 0. 9 mm vessel,however,the fine branch structures of the vessel were difficult to distinguish. The 3D printing based on 3D-DSA data,although the digital subtraction did not have the skull data information,the vascular branches showed more abundant. It could reveal the smallest diameter of 0. 9 mm vessel. Conclusions Using the CT thin-slice enhanced scan or 3D-DSA data source can obtain reconstruction images of AVM nidus,and 3D-DSA shows that the better effect for spatial structure of AVM nidus. It is helpful to the design of preoperative treatment scheme and the development of corresponding auxiliary tools.

Objective To study immunoregulatory activity of polysaccharide of mudan cortex (PSM) on immunodepressive mice. Method The immunodepressive mice model was established with cyclophosphamide treated and tumor-bearing. PSM was orally administered to mice for 10 d. MTT method was used to observe the prolifernation of lymphocytes. The function of macrophage in abdominal activity was measured. Sectrophotometric determination was adopted to evaluate the ability of plaque forming cell. Result PSM could enhance the function of macrophage, increase the content of plaque forming cell, and promote the prelifernation of lymphocytes. Conclusion PSM could enhance immunofunction of immunodepressive mice.

Objective This paper aims to make clear the post-disaster medical needs of residents in the disaster areas and changes among the poor population, for the purpose of policy recommendations on post-disaster medical assistance. Methods Such methods as in-home questionnaire survey and literature study were used to study the income, prevalence rate and mental health of 4 380 households in 10 counties (cities and districts) in the disaster areas. Results In the hardest hit areas, 80. 4% and 52. 8% of residents in rural and urban areas are dependent on government relief respectively;the proportion of poor population resulting from the disaster rose from 5% before the disaster to over 75% afterwards in the hard-hit areas, while such a population rose to 15% in the hardest-hit areas and about 10% in general disaster areas;It is estimated that the new medical aid funds in Sichuan Province will reach 350 million yuan, two-fold that of the budget for 2009;In the hardest hit areas, the two-week prevalence rate per thousand people is twice that found in the third survey of health services in 2003, characterized of acute respiratory illness and rheumatoid;In the hardest-hit areas, nearly 70% of the residents are exposed to high mental health risks. Conclusion Recommendations: Strengthening the raising and use of medical aid fund;dynamic management for the population in need of post-disaster medical aid;Developing appropriate medical aid packages to fit post-disaster health needs and postdisaster disease characteristics;and consolidating the connection between medical aid and primary medical insurance system.

Objective To explore the risk factors of diabetic nephropathy.Methods According to the excretion rate of proteinuria,90 patients were divided into 3 groups:normal diabetic proteinuria group (DM),diabetic micro-proteinuria group (DN1),and clinical diabetic proteinuria group (DN2).We compared patients'ages,diabetic course,cholesterol,triglyceride,glycosylated hemoglobin,high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL),low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL),serum p-selectin,serum C-reactive protein,urinary monocyte chemotactic protein,and proteinuria excretion rate.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relation between DN and various factors.Results Differences among these groups were statistically significant in type 2 diabetic course,HDL,LDL,p-selectin,C-reactive protein,glycosylated hemoglobin,and urinary monocyte chemotactic protein (P ＜ 0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that diabetic course,LDL,C-reactive protein,p-selectin,and urinary monocyte chemotactic protein were independent risk factor (OR values were 2.238,1.062,6.723,1.166,and 1.046).Conclusions Occurrence and severity of DN had relationship with course of diabetes,microvascular lesions,and inflammatory reaction.Emphasis on monitoring and evaluation of the DN-related factors would contribute to the prevention and treatment of DN.
