Oxyfedrine (Oxy ) exhibited inhibitory effect on washed rabbit platelet aggregation and MDA production induced by thrombin (4 U /ml) . The concentration of Oxy causing 50% inhibition of platelet aggregation induced by thrombin was 254 ?mol/L . Up to 2 nig/ml, acetysalicylic acid (ASA) could not antagonize platelet aggregation induced by thrombin 。 However, ASA 50 ?g/ml reduced the generation of MDA markedly. These results suggest that anti-aggregation of Oxy may be related to inhibition of PAF formation and the effect of Oxy on MDA generation may be due to the inhibition of arachi-donic acid release.

Objective To study the CT manifestations of metastatic lymph node of thyroid carcinoma. Methods CT appearances of metastatic lymph node of thyroid carcinoma proved by surgery and pathology in 108 patients were reviewed. Results Of these 108 cases, metastatic lymph nodes were located at superoir and middle internal jugular chain(n=76), inferior internal jugular chain and super clavicular region(n=86), tracheoesophageal groove(n=52), and superior mediastinum(n=17). Of 84 thyroid papillary carcinoma patients, the attenuation of metastatic lymph nodes were similar to that of normal thyroid gland(n=16), with cystic formations (n=24), intracystic high attenuation papillary-like nodules (n=18), and fine granular calcifications (n=11). Of 24 follicular carcinoma, medullary carcinoma, and clear cell carcinoma patients, 17 cases had significant homogeneous or heterogeneous enhanced nodes, and the attenuation was the same as primary or recurrent thyroid tumors. Conclusion For thyroid carcinoma, the most common locations of metastatic lymph nodes were internal jugular chain, tracheoesophageal groove, and superior mediastinum regions. Marked enhancement similar to normal thyroid gland, cystic formations with intracystic high attenuation papillary-like nodules, and fine discrete granular calcifications were the characteristic manifestations of metastatic lymph node of papillary carcinoma. Marked homogeneous or heterogeneous enhancement after contrast administration and the same attenuation as the primary or recurrent thyroid tumor were found in follicular carcinoma, medullary carcinoma, and clear cell carcinoma metastases.

AIM:To observe the dynamic changes of neurokinin A(NKA) and calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP) levels in gastric mucosal and plasma in rats after abdominal seawater-immersing trauma,and to investigate the influence of these two sensory neuropeptides on acute gastric mucosal lesion.METHODS:Thirty-two SD rats were randomly divided into four groups(normal group,celiac seawater-immersing trauma 1,2 and 3 h groups).With emzyoimmunoassay and radioimmunoassay respectively,gastric mucosal and plasma NKA and CGRP levels in rats were measured.RESULTS:Compared with normal rats,with the seawater-immersing time prolonged,gastric mucosal NKA and CGRP levels in rats were progressively decreased(P

· AIM: To investigate the influence of TGF-β 2 antisense oligonucleotide(ASON) on the differentiation, proliferation of stromal fibroblast in corneal stroma injury.both eyes of 28 rabbits, the right eyes were served as experimental group, corneal incisions were sutured with 8-0 coated vicryl suture carrying TGF-β 2 ASON; the left eyes were served as control group, corneal incision were sutured with common 8-0 coated vicryl suture. Rabbits were killed at 4, 7, 14 and 28d after surgery, stromal fibroblasts were examined by immune histochemistry and electron microscopy.significantly reduced the numbers of cells expressingα -smooth muscle actin (α -SMA) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). The ultrastructure of fibroblast had no significant difference in two groups.differentiation and proliferation of stromal fibroblast in corneal injury. This will be a new method to adjust corneal wound repair.

Objective To observe the effects of psychological supportive therapy on the activities of daily living (ADL) and depression after cerebral hemorrhage. Methods 60 cases with mild or medium depression according to 17 items Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD-17) after cerebral hemorrhage were divided into treatment group (n=30) and control group (n=30). All of them accepted physical exercise, and those in the treatment group accepted psychological supportive therapy in addition. They were assessed with Functional Independence Measure (FIM) and HAMD-17 before and after the treatment. Results After 2 months of treatment, the score of FIM increased more in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.001), and the score of HAMD-17 decreased (P<0.001). Conclusion Psychological supportive therapy may promote the recovery of ADL and depression for patients post cerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract: Objective　The main aim of the study is to sequence the complete genome of two Getah virus strains (GS11-155 and HNDZ1712-1) isolated in Gansu Province and Hainan Province in 2011 and 2017 respectively and analyze the molecular and genetic evolution of the two strains compared with M1, which was first isolated in 1964 in Hainan Province, China. Methods　Genome of two newly isolated Getah viruses were sequenced by virus gene amplification technique, and the genomic database of Getah viruses was established. The molecular characteristics and genetic evolution of the viruses were analyzed by bioinformatics software. Results　The genome length of two new isolated Getah virus strains (GS11-155 and HNDZ1712-1) was 11 690 nt and 11 621 nt, respectively. Both strains had the structural characteristics of Alphavirus genome. Although the nucleotide sequence lengths of structural genes, non-structural genes and non-coding junction regions of the two strains were identical, the nucleotide sequence lengths of the 5' and 3' non-coding regions of the viral genomes were a few different. The 3'UTR repeats elements in the genomes of the two virus strains did not change. It was 97.7% and 98.1% different of nucleotide and amino acid homology between both strains of Getah virus, HNDZ1712-1 isolated in 2017 and M1 isolated in 1964 in Hainan Province. Interesting, Gansu 2011 cluster and Hainan 2017 cluster were emerged leading by both strains GS11-155 and HNDZ1712-1 respectively, those two clusters totally independent with M1 virus isolated from Hainan in 1964 in whole genome phylogenetic analysis first. Conclusions　Although the HNDZ1712-1 was also isolated from mosquito samples in Hainan Province, it was in a completely different evolutionary branch from the M1 isolated from Hainan Island in 1964, and was closely related to the strain isolated from Gansu Province (GS11-155) thousands of kilometers away. It is suggested that the two new strains of Getah virus are different from the Getah virus isolated in 1964.
