Objective To discuss the effect of the sustained releasing agent FK506 on the ultrastructure of the regenerative nerve fibers.Methods The new fusiform-shaped double channel nerve conduit was used for bridge the sciatic nerve defects for 10 mm in 32 Sprague-Dawley rats.The rats were divided into Group A(100μl chitin for both channels)and Group B(chitin plus FK506 for B1 and chitin plus normal saline for B2)according to different addition of the drugs.At 8 and 12 week after operation,the middle line of the regenerated nerve was observed under the transmission electron microscope.In the meantime,an analysis was done on the area of the regenerated nerve fibers(myelinated and unmyelinated),diameter and myelin thickness of the myelinated fiber axon at 8 and 16 months.Results There was not significant difference in aspects of type and number of the regenerative nerve fibers between two channels in Group A.However,the myelinated and unmyelinated fibers of the regenerative nerves were increased in Group B1,with larger area than Group B2(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion FK506 can significantly promote the regeneration of both the myelinated and unmyelinated fibers.

ObjectiveTo investigate the role of NRM in the antinociceptive effect of muscle spindle afferents, the influence of NRM lesion on the inhibitory effect of muscle spindle afferents on the nociceptive responses of wide dynamic range (WDR) neurons and the effects of the muscle spindle afferents on the NRM neuronal activities were observed. MethodsThe single units of WDR neurons in the spinal dorsal horn were recorded extracellularly, and the inhibitory effects of activating muscle spindle afferents by intravenous administration of succinyicholine (SCH) on the C-fibers evoked responses (C-responses) of WDR neurons were tested before and after lesion of NRM. The ef- fects of the muscle spindle afferents activated by administrating SCH on the single NRM neurons were also examined. Results①lt was found that the C-responses of WDR neurons were significantly inhibited by intravenously adminis- tration of SCH, and the inhibitory effect was reduced after lesion of NRM ;②The activities of most of the NRM neu- rons could be changed significantly by administrating SCH. According to their responses, NRM neurons could be classified into three types:excitatory, inhibitory and non-responsive neurons, and the responses were dose-depen- dent. ConclusionThese results suggest that the muscle spindle afferents evoked by SCH may activate the NRM neu- rons, which plays an important role in the antinociception of muscle spindle afferents.

Objective:To investigate the changes of serum neopterin (NPT) level in adults patients with Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) in Qinghai Province.Methods:In July 2018, according to the "Diagnosis of Kashin-Beck Disease" (WS/T 207-2010), in KBD endemic region of Xinghai and Guide counties in Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Qinghai Province, adult KBD patients and healthy people over 20 years old were selected as KBD group and internal control group, respectively. At the same time, healthy people over 20 years old were selected as the external control group in non-KBD endemic region of Xunhua County with similar production scale and lifestyle. Fasting elbow vein blood samples of the 3 groups of people were collected, serum NPT levels were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results:Totally 272 people were enrolled in the study, 104 cases (50 males and 54 females) in KBD group, aged (47.61 ± 12.72) years old; 95 cases (35 males and 60 females) in internal control group, aged (48.28 ± 14.87) years old; and 73 cases (35 males and 38 females) in external control group, aged (51.88 ± 13.93) years old. There were no significant differences in gender composition and age among the 3 groups (χ 2 = 3.135, F = 2.236, P > 0.05). The serum NPT levels of KBD, internal control, and external control groups were (504.35 ± 413.92), (417.34 ± 109.90) and (397.49 ± 118.07) ng/L, respectively, and the difference among the 3 groups was statistically significant ( F = 4.129, P < 0.05). Among them, the serum NPT level of KBD group was significantly higher than that of internal control group and external control group ( P < 0.05); there was no significant difference in the serum NPT level between internal control group and external control group ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:The serum NPT level of adult KBD patients in Qinghai Province is elevated.

Objective:To investigate the effects of celecoxib and anti-osteogenesis tablets on urinary biomarkers pyridinoline (PYD) and deoxypyridinoline (DPD) in adult patients with Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) in Qinghai Province, and to provide scientific basis for treatment of adult KBD.Methods:According to the "Diagnosis of Kaschin-Beck disease" (WS/T 207-2010), in July 2017, 120 cases of adult KBD that were selected from the KBD area in Qinghai Province were divided into non-drug treatment group ( n = 66) and drug treatment group ( n = 54), and 89 healthy adults were selected as control group. The drug treatment group was taken celecoxib and anti-osteogenesis tablets for 6 months. Morning urine samples were collected from the three groups. The contentss of PYD and DPD in urine were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the test results were corrected with creatinine (Cre). Results:There were no statistically significant differences in gender ratio and age among non-drug treatment group, drug treatment group and control group (χ 2 = 0.820, F = 0.379, P > 0.05). The medians of urinary PYD in the three groups were 1 106.39, 812.18, 702.53 ng/μmol Cre, and the medians of DPD were 1 325.58, 802.54, 752.38 ng/μmol Cre, respectively. The differences were statistically significant among the three groups ( H = 13.849, 34.621, P < 0.01). The contents of PYD and DPD in drug treatment group were lower than those in non-drug treatment group ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:Celecoxib and anti-osteogenesis tablets can reduce the urinary levels of PYD and DPD in adult patients with KBD.

Objective To investigate the correlation between augmentation index (AI) of the radial artery and diastolic heart function in patients with hypertension.Methods Echocardiographs were obtained for 305 patients with hypertension.AI,pulse wave velocity (PWV) of peripheral arteries and serum pro-brain natriuretic peptide (proBNP) levels were determined.Correlations and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn between AI values and impaired diastolic function.Results AI levels were significantly increased in patients with impaired diastolic function diagnosed by ultrasound.Assessment of diastolic heart function based on proBNP levels revealed that AI and aortic pulse wave velocity were significantly elevated in patients with impaired diastolic function.The operating curve indicated that AI may be a more accurate and efficient index for the evaluation of impaired diastolic function compared to pWV.Correlation analysis also showed that proBNP levels had altered in parallel with changes in AI and PWV.After adjusting for various factors including age,gender,blood pressure and blood lipid,a positive correlation was observed between proBNP and AI with a correlation coefficient of 0.3697 (P =0.003).However,no correlation between proBNP and aortic PWV was seen after adjustment.Conclusions Changes in radial AI levels may reflect parallel changes in diastolic cardiac function in patients with hypertension,suggesting that AI may be utilized as a non-invasive clinical indicator of diastolic heart function.
