Objective To explore the effect of progesterone on the rate of neuronal apoptosis and nitric oxide(NO) level in the cortex and hippocampus tissue of newborn rats with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE).Methods Thirty 7-day-old neonatal rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:sham-operated group,hypoxic-ischemic(HI) group and pretreatment group.Rats in HI group and pretreatment group were subjected to left common carotid artery ligation,then were exposed to 80 mL/L oxygen and 920 mL/L nitrogen gas in 37 ℃ closed container for up to 2.5 h to establish HIE model.Progesterone was injected intraperitoneally into rats in the pretreatment group respectively for 30 minutes before hypoxia,and solution was injected into the sham-operated group and HI group.All rats were killed at 24 h after operation.The neuron apoptosis was identified and analyzed by flow cytometry.Nitrate/nitrite was assayed to represent nitric oxide content of brain tissues.Results The ratio of neuronal apoptosis and NO contents in cortex and hippocampus tissue in HI group [(10.09?0.36)%,(12.32?0.28)%,(51.36?9.71) ?mol/L,(52.34?4.26) ?mol/L] were significantly higher than those in sham-operated group [(2.49?0.23)%,(2.58?0.26)%,(18.16?6.24) ?mol/L,(19.28?3.58) ?mol/L)](P_a

Objective To investigate environmental risk factors associated with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods A retrospective study was carried out from Feb 2005 to Apr 2006.A total of 108 cases with PCOS and 108 patients without PCOS(control group)were interviewed using a designed questionnaire.Results Univariate analysis of environmental factors indicated that risk factors related to PCOS were:occupation,education,disposable plastic cup for drinking,cooking oil fume and indoor decoration,all of which were significantly related to PCOS(P

Objective To investigate the effect of fluctuant high blood glucose on the pathology profile and BCL-2,BAX expression in neurons of the hippocampus from diabetic rats.Methods The diabetic rat models were developed by injection with l% streptozotocin(STZ),followed by insulin administration.Regular insulin was used to set up fluctuant high glucose group model.After 12 experimental weeks,the expression of Fas protein in hippocampus was checked by immunohistochemistry,pathological changes and ultrastructure were observed by using light microscopy and electron microscopy in three groups.Results Compared with those in N group,the expression of BCL-2 in pyramidal cells of diabetic rat's hippocampus was lower,while that of BAX was higher(P

Yinchuan city began since January 1,201 5 to implement the“Disease scoring settlement under total budget”for hospitalization cost settlement.The new settlement method impels the hospitals to strengthen internal management,strengthen cost control,implement clinical pathway,strengthen the construction of hospital informationization,and standardize the hospital medical information upload.This paper covered the policy background and hospital internal management requirements,as well as hospital response measures,for reference of government healthcare authorities in the formulation of policy specific measures,and for the hospital’s medical insurance management department to adjust management mode and work flow,in order to better respond to and implement the policy.

BACKGROUND:The patients with porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns who do examination of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can cause artifacts. In recent years, researching for MRI artifacts of different porcelain-fused-to-metal materials has been some progress, but there are less quantitatively reports on the MRI artifacts of different porcelain-fused-to-metal materials.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the artifact sizes shown on fast spin-echo T 2-weighted sequence caused by different kinds of porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns.
METHODS:Forty-eight lower right first molar crown patients who had MRI examination in MRI room were enrol ed. The patients were divided into nickel-chromium al oy group, cobalt-chromium al oy group and titanium crown group. Al patients were examined with fast spin-echo T 2-weighted sequences by means of 1.5 T MRI apparatus. MRI artifacts areas of same sequence on the MRI images of different porcelain-fused-to-metal materials were analyzed with variance test.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Forty-five cases appearing to have high signal samples with clearly curved boundary zone that can be measured were selected, 15 cases for each material. Different artifact sizes were produced on the same sequence of different porcelain-fused-to-metal materials, which were (321.67±33.29) mm in the nickel-chromium al oy group, (263.53±34.95) mm2 in the cobalt-chromium al oy group, and (143.67±31.13) mm2 in the titanium crown group. There were significant differences between groups (P<0.05). The artifact size is smal est for the titanium crown and largest for the nickel-chromium al oy crown.

Recently, more and more public attention has been paid to nanomaterials in various fields. Especially, the preparation methods of core/shell nanoparticles have been drastically updated and developed. There exists great application prospect for the development of biosensing core/shell nanoparticles. This paper emphatically introduced the operation principle, preparation methods of biosensing core/shell nanopaticles and the latest application progress in electrochemical biosensor, optical biosensor and piezoelectric crystal biosensor.

Objective To investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided subcostal transverses ab-dominis plane block with dexmedetomidine mixed ropivacaine in related-living kidney transplantation donor.Methods Forty related living kidney transplantation donors (male 1 5 cases,female 25 cases, aged 20-60 years,ASA grade Ⅰ or Ⅱ)were randomized into dexmedetomidine group (group D,n =20)and control group (group C,n =20).All the patients received ultrasound-guided subcostal TAP block after operation,group D with dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg and 0.375% ropivacaine to 20 ml,and group C with 0.375% ropivacaine 20 ml.All the patients were assessed with both Ramsay scores and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)at rest or on moving at 2,4,8,24 and 48 hours after operation.The duration of sensory blockade,the first time and the times of pressing the analgesia pump in the first 24 hours after operation,the requirements of flurbiprofen axetil and midazolam were recorded.The u-rine on the first and the second day after operation and the first flatus time were compared.The plas-ma concentrations of urea nitrogen (BUN)and creatinine(Cr)before surgery and on the second and fifth day after operation were determined.Results Compared with group C,the scores of VAS were de-creased at 4 and 8 hours after operation in group D (P <0.05).There were no differences in Ramsay scores between the two groups.Compared with group C,less frequency of use of flurbiprofen axetil (15% vs 0%) and midazolam (10% vs 0%)in group D,longer time of sensory blockade,postponed time to firstly press the analgesia pump and the less frequency of pressing the analgesia pump in group D (P <0.05),the urine on the first day was increased and the first flatus time was earlier,the plasma concentrations of BUN and Cr were significantly lower on the second day after operation in group D (P < 0.05 ). Conclusion Dexmedetomidine mixed ropivacaine can promote the anaesthesia of ultrasound-guided subcostal TAP block with ropivacaine,prolong the time of sensory blockade and improve the recovery after nephrecto-my in living-related kidney donor.

OBJECTIVE:To observe therapeutic efficacy and safety of domestic Imatinib mesylate tablet in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia(CML). METHODS:16 CML patients were selected,including 7 newly diagnosed CML patients and 9 patients diagnosed as CML more than 12 months. Imatinib mesylate tablet 400 mg,qd were used in all patients. Blood routine, bone marrow cytology,ph chromosome Evaluate efficacy,and observed peripheral blood fusion gene,Bcr-Abl/Abl gene mutation and ADR were all detected. RESULTS:After treatment,16 patients achieved complete hematologic remission (CHR);12 cases were pavtial cytogenetic response(MCyR),of which 2 cases achieved complete cytogenetic response(CCyR),2 cases were cyto-genelic remission. 15 patients'Bcr-Abl/Abl transcript levels were less than 10%,and only one case was more than 10%. No ADR difficult to tolerate was found in 16 patients. CONCLUSIONS:Domestic Imatinib mesylate tablet shows definite early therapeutic efficacy and high safety.
