To investigate the pathogenic mechanism of interleukin 6(IL-6) in the tubulointerstitial lesions of patients with active lupus nephritis(LN). Methods Uninary IL-6 from 42 active LN cases and the renal tissues sections from 15 of them were examined by performing ELISA and in situ hybridization with IL-6 cDNA probe labelled by digoxingenin respectively. Results In 36/42 (85.7%) of active LN patients, uninary IL-6 content was higher than or equal to 5 pg/mg ,cr, while no one case did in normal controls. Uninary IL-6 content was highly correlated with the uninary ft-m and NAG excretion respectively. In normal tubules and interstitium, IL-6 mRNA was undetectable. For all sections from 15 active cases, IL-6 mRNA was found in tubular and interstitial cells, and the distribution correlated with the extent of tubulointerstitial lesions. Conclusion IL-6 is probably involved in tubulointerstitial lesions of patients with active lupus nephritis.

The relationship of the nose tip position and the skull figures which were measured from the lateral craniographs in 49 ladies of 17～19 age living in Shenyang was studied. The figures measured on craniographs were analyzed by multiple stepwise regression analysis on IBM-PC/XT computer, and the regressoin equations for estimating the nose tip position of female in Shenyang were obtained. Cases in which the errors were within 2 mm were 71.43 to 77. 55 percent.

Objective To investigate the influence of mental intervention on the self-image of breast cancer patients.Methods Fifty patients with breast cancer who were hospitalized in our hospital from January to September,2015 were enrolled as the control group in the study,where routine nursing intervention,health education on disease related knowledge and psychological nursing were carried out.During October 2015 to June 2016,50 patients with breast cancer were enrolled as the observation group,where psychological awareness intervention was carried out apart from the routine nursing intervention.The self-image level of breast cancer patients from the two groups was evaluated by self-image questionnaire for breast cancer patients (BIBCQ).Result After intervention,the scores on self-image in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P＜0.05).Conclusion Mental intervention can improve the self-image of breast cancer patients and help improve their quality of life.

AIM: To study the therapeutical effects of salvianolic acid B (Sal B) on myocardial infarction(MI) in dogs. METHODS : The models of myocardial infarction were produced by ligation of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery in the anaesthetized dogs. The extent of myocardial ischemia was detected by epicardial-electrocardiogram and the extent of infarction was determhled by N-BT staining method. The parameter of lactate dehydrogenase was determined in the serums of dogs. RESULTS : It was indicated that the adminstration of Sal B(1、3 and 10mg/kg) by the way of intravenous injection reduced the extent of myocardial infarction (N-ST) ( P

Traditional sequences of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) such as T1-weighed imaging, T2-weighed imaging, and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) imaging can sensitively detect the subacute and chronic intracranial hemorrhage; gradient echo sequence can detect various stages of intracranial hemorrhage, but there is no correlation between the signal intensity of the hematoma and the time of the presence of hematoma. Diffusion-weighted imaging and apparent diffusion coefficient may provide more information about the center and surrounding areas of hematoma, as well as the hemorrhagic tendency after infarction.

The electrochemical behaviors of parathion(PT) on nano-Al2O3 film modified electrode(nano-Al2O3/GCE/CME) were investigated. It was found that the redox peak currents of PT remarkably increased and the oxidation peak potential negatively shifted at the nano-Al2O3/GCE/CME. All the experimental parameters were optimized and a simple and sensitive electroanalytical method was developed for the determination of PT. The oxidation peak current was linear with the concentration of PT over the range from 2.5×10-9 to 1.0×10-7 mol/L and 1.0×10-7 to 1.0×10-5 mol/L. A low detection limit of 1.0×10-9 mol/L was obtained for 30 s accumulation at open circuit(S/N=3). The relative standard deviation(n=10) was 3.8% for 1×10-5 mol/L PT. The proposed method was used for the quantitative analysis of PT in some vegetables and the results were satisfactory.

Objective To evaluate the effect of preoperative intramuscular injection of of dextromethorphan in three dosages on fentanyl consumption in postoperative PCA in order to optimize its pre-emptive analgesia dose. Methods 80 ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients underwent spine operations under general anesthesia were randomly divided into four groups, who respectively received intramuscular dextromethorphan 10mg (DM10 group), 20mg (DM20 group), 40mg (DM40 group), or normal saline (CON group) respectively. The PCA fentanyl consumption as well as VAS pain scores were observed 4h, 24h, and 48h after the operation. Results Although there was no significant differences in pain VAS score between the four groups, the fentanyl consumption was significantly lower in groups DM20 and DM40 compared with group CON and DM10. However, there was no significant difference between group DM20 and group DM40. Conclusion Preoperative IM dextromethorphan shows a dose-dependant fentanyl spare effect on postoperative PCA, and a dose of 20mg seems to be optimal for preoperative use.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of ginkgolide (GL) on the cerebral blood flow in dogs. METHODS: Dogs anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital were randomly divided into 5 groups, with 4 dogs in each group. Ginkgolide of 4.86, 14.6 and 43.7 mg/kg and Xingling Granule of 0.22 g/kg were administered by gavage to the dogs in each of 4 groups. The dogs in the other group were administered with edible oil (1 ml/kg) as control group. The cerebral blood flow, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial blood pressure and electro-cardiogram of the dogs were measured at different times after the administration. RESULTS: Ginkgolide of 4.86, 14.6 and 43.7 mg/kg had no obvious effects on the blood pressure and the heart rate. Ginkgolide of 14.6 and 43.7 mg/kg increased the cerebral blood flow 90 minutes after administration, and ginkgolide of 43.7 mg/kg obviously decreased the cerebral vascular resistance 150 minutes after administration. CONCLUSION: Ginkgolide can increase the cerebral blood flow and decrease the cerebral vascular resistance, and it has no obvious effects on blood pressure and heart rate in dogs.
