ObjectiveTo observe the morphological changes of enteric nerve-interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) network in rats with the bacterial peritonitis, and to investigate the main cause of gastrointestinal dysfunction and gastrointestinal failure with the bacterial peritonitis. Methods Sixty Wistar rats of both sexes were randomly divided into two groups. The model of the bacterial peritonitis was established.To record the frequency and amplitude of slow wave in myoelectricity of intestine in vivo to assess the function of the intestine motility. The proximal 10.0 cm segment of jejunum beginning 2 cm distal to the pylorus from each group was studied using c-Kit and vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT)/ neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) immunohistochemical double-staining with whole-mount preparation technique and laser scanning confocal microscopy(CLSM). Results Compared the result of the bacterial peritonitis group with the normal group, it was found that the frequency and amplitude of slow wave in myoelectricity of intestine of the bacterial peritonitis group were slower and lower than the normal group, CLSM scanned ICC network showed that compared with the control group, the distributions and densities of ICC of intestine in the bacterial peritonitis group decreased significantly(P<0.01), the number of ICC synapse decreased, the cell junction between ICC and the ICC network was disrupted, and the fluorescence intension of cell decreased. CLSM scanned enteric nerve-ICC network indicated that compared with the control group, in the bacterial peritonitis group, the distributions and densities of cholinergic nerves (P<0.01)/ nitrergic nerves(P<0.01)and ICC(P<0.01)of intestine significantly decreased respectively, the cell junction between enteric nerve and enteric nerve -ICC network was disrupted, and the fluorescence intension of enteric nerve -ICC network decreased. The network of cholinergic/nitrergic nerve-ICC was disrupted. Conclusion The number of cholinergic nerves and nitrergic nerves were reduced, and the enteric nerve-ICC network was damaged in rats with bacterial peritonitis. Gastrointestinal motility dysfunction can be caused by the bacterial peritonitis.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of the quantitative detection of plasma 1,3-β-D-glucan in penicilliposis marneffei. Methods The 1,3-β-D-glucan concentrations were detected by using a G test. Results In 60 New Zealand rabbits infected by Penicillium marneffei,the levels of 1,3-β-D-glucan were positively correlated with infectious severity. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive rate and negative predictive rate were 88.3%、100%、 100% and 58.8% respectively,which were significantly higher than those of the control group(P <0.01 ).Conclusion The quantitative method for the detection of 1,3-β-D-glucan in plasma was simple,sensitive and reliable, and could be used as the assisting diagnosis of penicilliposis marneffei at early stage.

Objective Using surface electromyography (sEMG) techniques to investigate the patterns of frequency domain indexes of sEMC signals recorded from adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients' paraspinal muscles. Methods Twenty-five AIS patients were enrolled. All the patients undertook the Biering Sorensen test ( BST) ,the object-lifting test and a semi-bridge test, the ME3000P sEMG instrument was applied to record the electric activities of paraspinal muscles (convex/concave) of all subjects, and the time domain indexes such as averaged EMG(AEMG)and spectrum area(SPA) were analyzed, values in three tests were compared with one way ANOVA. Results The differences of AEMGs and SPAs on both convex and concave sides among the three tests showed no statistical significances (P = 0. 10,0.23, 0. 24 and 0. 45, respectively). Conclusions Any of the Biering Sorensen test( BST) , the object-lifting test or the semi-bridge test can be used to test the electric activities of paraspinal muscles (convex/concave) of AIS patients.

40/h) and non-severe group(n=15,AHI 5-40/h).Anthropometric measurements,fasting plasma glucose,insulin,blood fat,and CT quantitative measurement of abdominal adipose tissue were recorded. Results Insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR) in patients with OSAS was related to hypoxia independently of obesity variables.The severe group was characterized by more serious metabolic disorders and higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome than the non-severe group.OSAS was positively associated with an increased metabolic disorders risk for the severe group versus the non-severe group(OR=8.8).Using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve analysis,waist circumference had the greatest areas under the ROC curves compared with body mass index and neck circumference.The results of multiple stepwise regression of lowest pulse oxygen saturation(LSpO2)during overnight sleep indicated that neck circumference followed by epworth sleepiness score(ESS) entered the equation(P

Objective To investigate the mechanism of acute inflammatory response and tissue repair when rats accepted transplanted bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods A total of 40 rats were randomly divided into 4 groups which included the normal group (n=10),the model severe acute pancreatitis group (n=10),the transplanted bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells group (n =10),and the combination of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) group (n=10).To cure the acute severe pancreatic injury caused by SAP,rats were injected with EDU-labeled MSCs and granulocyte colonystimulating factor (Gr-CSF).The conversion rate of MSCs to pancreatic cells or MSCs to endothelial cells was detected to assess the role of MSCs in tissue regeneration and repair.The expression of amylase,interleukin-6 (IL-6),and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in serum was detected to assess the role of MSCs in an acute inflammatory response.Results The concentrations of amylase and IL-6 were reduced and the concentration of IL-10 was increased in MSC and MSC+G-CSF groups after the onset of SAP.Flow cytometry showed a small amount of MSCs converting to endothelial or pancreatic cells,but the conversion rate was relatively low.Conclusions MSCs can play an important role in the antipre-release of inflammatory mediators,reducing acute immune response to control the acute inflammatory response in SAP.Moreover,MSCs can repair a damaged pancreas by converting into both pancreatic and endothelial cells.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of MRI in the infantile developmental dislocation of the hip.Methods Forty-five cases of preoperative hip MRI data of DDH (patient group)and 40 cases of normal hip (control group)MRI data were retrospectively analyzed.Three types were classified according to the standard of Dunn.Then the bony acetabular index (BAI),cartilaginous acetabular index (CAI)were measured on coronal MRI and all the intra-articular structures (articular cartilage,labrum, teres ligament and iliopsoas)in the acetabulum that impeded the reduction of the femoral head were observed.Results There were normal hips (80 hips)and dislocated hips (73 hips).In dislocated hips typeⅠ (30 hips),typeⅡ (20 hips),and typeⅢ (23 hips) were found.The values of BAI were (26.13±2.19)°and (35.87±4.42)°,CAI (13.84±1.07)°and (21.92±4.70)°for patient group and control group.The values of BAI were (31.80±1.74)°,(37.80±3.40)°and (39.17±4.11)°,CAI (17.20±2.68)°,(20.91±2.02)°and (27.50±2.78)°for the typesⅠ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ respectively.Differences of BAI and CAI between patient group and control group were showed (t=-11.048 and -9.188,P =0.000).Statistically significants were found among the typeⅠ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ(F=22.159 and 47.241,P =0.000).There were linear correlations for patient group ,control group,and the typeⅠ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ (r= 0.964,0.844,0.953,0.931 and 0.870,P =0.000).Some pathological changes such as varus labrum,thick teres ligament,iliopsoas spasm,articular cartilage hyperplasia,fat hyperplasia,joint effusion were observed in the type Ⅱand Ⅲ.Conclusion MRI is not only used for measuring the values of BAI and CAI,and a linear correlation among all kinds of DDH,but also some factors hindering the reduction of the femoral head can be found clearly.It can provide an important reference basis for the diagnosis and treatment of DDH.

Objective To explore the clinical value of intra-arterial thrombolytic therapy for hepatic artery thrombosis after liver transplantation. Methods Routine color doppler imaging (CDI) was used to detect hepatic artery thrombosis (HAT) after liver transplantation in 160 cases. Suspected patients were further confirmed by immediate angiography. Four cases of HAT were diagnosed and treated by intra-arterial thrombolysis. Two cases received repeatable transcatheter hepatic arterial thrombolysis with a low dose of urokinase. Results Hepatic artery recanalization was achieved in 3 cases. Among the 3 cases, multiple HAT occurred in 1 case, intra-arterial thrombolysis was successfully completed in the end. Two cases had intra-abdominal hemorrhage, which was cured by conservative treatment. One case received retransplantation because of interventional thrombolysis failure and intra-abdominal hemorrhage. Conclusion Intra-arterial thrombolytic therapy may be a promising method in the treatment of HAT. Transcatheter hepatic arterial thrombolysis shows a significant result.

Objective To evaluate the effects of sufentanil on regeneration and repair after single sciatic nerve injury in mice. Methods Seventy?five healthy male BALB∕c mice, aged 6-8 weeks, weig?hing 18-22 g, were divided into 5 groups ( n=15 each) using a random number table: peripherial nerve injury group (group PNI), low, medium and high doses of sufentanil groups (L, M and H groups) and cyclosporine A group ( group C) . The model of unilateral sciatic nerve transection was established in the 5 groups. In L, M and H groups, sufentanil 2?5, 5?0 and 10?0 μg∕kg were injected intraperitoneally, re?spectively, once a day for 3 consecutive days. Cyclosporine A 50 mg∕kg was injected intraperitoneally once a day for 3 consecutive days in group C. The equal volume of normal saline was given once a day for 3 con?secutive days in group PNI. Neurophysiological monitoring was performed at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after opera?tion, the amplitude of compound muscle action potentials of the sciatic nerve was recorded, and the nerve conduction velocity was measured. At 8 weeks after operation, 5 mice were sacrificed, the sciatic nerve 0?5 cm of the upper and lower the anastomosed site was removed for examination of the morphology of myelin sheath with light microscope, and the number of nerve fibers was calculated. Results Compared with group PNI, the amplitude of compound muscle action potentials of the sciatic nerve, nerve conduction ve?locity and the number of nerve fibers was were significantly increased in M, H and C groups ( P<0?05) , and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group L ( P>0?05 ) . Myelin sheath arrangement was severely irregular, and more vacuoles were found in group PNI. Myelin sheath ar?rangement was irregular, and more vacuoles were found in group L. Myelin sheath arrangement was mainly regular, and vacuoles were found occasionally in group M. Myelin sheath arrangement was regular, and no vacuoles were observed in H and C groups. Conclusion Sufentanil can promote regeneration and repair af?ter peripheral nerve injury in mice.

Objective To explore the effect of carbon nanoparticles-epirubicin suspension on proliferation and apoptosis in human breast cancer MCF-7 cells.Methods MCF-7 cells were cultured with different concentrations of CNP-EPI in vitro.CCK-8 assay was used for determinate inhibition effect of CNP-EPI on the proliferation of MCF-7 cells at different concentration and different time.According to the determination of IC90,5 μg/ml CNP-EPI was selected,and cell morphology and cell apoptosis rates were observed after 24 h.Results The inhibition effect of the CNP-EPI was stronger significantly in CNP-EPI group than in normal control group within 24 h,48 h,72 h when the concentration was from 1 μg/ml to 200 μg/ml (P＜0.01).The inhibition of CNP-EPI on the proliferation of MCF-7 cells was gradually strengthened in a dose-dependent relation within the same time,and the inhibition effect is reduced in the same concentration of drugs with the time extension,but it still has a strong inhibitory effect in 72 h,and the inhibition effect of different concentration of CNP was not obvious on MCF-7 cells.Obvious changes of cell morphology were observed under inverted microscope such as:a lot of dead cells,cell adherent growth poor,cell morphology became round and karyopycnosis etc,in 5 μg/ml CNP-EPI group after 24 h.However,no obvious abnormity of cell norphology was observed in normal control group and corresponding CNP group.Late apoptosis rate was (14.57±2.41) ％,the mortality rate could reach (78.63±-20.55)％ in 5 μg/ml CNP-EPI group after 24 h.The mortality rate and apoptosis rate of cells was higher significantly in CNP-EPI group than in CNP group and normal control group (P＜0.05).Conclusion CNP-EPI can obviously inhibit the proliferation or kill human breast cancer MCF-7cells,and the inhibition effect of CNP-EPI on proliferation of breast cancer cells might be the result of delayed releasing of EPI.
