Objective To explore the changes of gastric myoelectrical activity of chronic superficial gastritis after zhizhu capsule treatment.Methods Sixty chronic superficial gastritis patients with dyspepsia were divided into two groups; the control group (n =26) was treated with pantoprazole and mosapride and the treatment group (n =34)with the same drugs combined with ZhizhuKuanzhong capsules for 2 weeks.Gastric myoelectrical activities of all patients were recorded by electrogastrography before and after treatment.The symptoms were scored in 60 chronic superficial gastritis patients according to themodified glasgow method.Results The glasgow scores before and after treatment were(6.12 ± 0.82) and (0.72 ± 0.56),respectively; they were (6.87 ±0.58) and(2.80 ± 1.10) in the control group,respectively.The glasgow scores of the treatment group were decreased more obviously than the control group (t =9.58,P ＜ 0.05).The number of cases in the treatment and control groups which the main power ratio was more than 1 before and after meals was 7 (20.59％),29 (85.29％) and 5 (19.23％),19 (73.08％),respectively.In two groups,there was significantly statistical difference in the percentage of which main power ratio was more than 1 between before and after treatment (x2 =28.57,15.17,P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,there was statistically significant difference in the percentage of normal slow wave and bradygastria before and after meal in two groups[treatment group:before meal:(63.22 ± 10.05)％,(20.35 ± 11.23)％ ;after meal:(68.52 ±13.03) ％,(18.62 ± 10.03) ％ ; control group:before meal:(50.1 ± 16.22) ％,(28.38 ± 17.25) ％ ; after meal:(54.57 ± 18.32) ％,(27.67 ± 16.27) ％] (t =2.18 ～ 3.84,P ＜ 0.05).There was no statistical differences in the percentage of tachygastria before and after meal in two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The dyspepsia symptoms of chronic superficial gastritis might be related to the disorder of elactrogastrographic frequency.ZhizhuKuanzhong capsules can effectively improve the gastric myoelectrical activity and relieve the dyspeptic symptom of chronic superficial gastritis patients.

Objective To study the clinical significance of dexamethasone (DT) in the combined spinal and epidural anesthesia for delivery of elderly parturient women. Methods 134 elderly parturient women were selected as the research object, and randomly divided into two groups. 69 cases in DT group received intramuscular injection of dexamethasone and combined anesthesia, while 65 cases in INN group received intramuscular injection of tramadol (INN) and combined spinal and epidural anesthesia. The anesthetic effect of the two groups were observed. Results After treatment, the interleukin (IL-6), myeloperoxidase (MPO), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and methane dicarboxylic aldehyde (MDA) in DT group were significantly higher than INN group (P<0.05). The five kinds of immunoglobulins levels (IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG and IgM) in DT group were higher than those in INN group (P<0.05). The heart rate (HR) in DT group was lower and mean arterial pressure (MAP) was higher than that in INN group(P<0.05). There was 1 cases of macrosomia, 2 cases of premature delivery in DT group, the adverse pregnancy outcomes was 4.35%(3/69). there was 1 cases of macrosomia, 1 cases of congenital deformity, 1 cases of premature delivery and 1 case of postterm delivery in DT group, the adverse pregnancy outcomes was 5.80%(4/69), with no significant difference between two groups. Conclusion Dexamethasone combined with anesthesia is very effective for delivery of elderly parturient women which shows very good anti-inflammatory and immunoregulation.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of infective endoearditis complicated with intracranial hemorrhage.Methods The clinical characteristics,brain CT and MRI results and prognosis of 7 patients with infective endocarditis and intracranial hemorrhage admitted between January 1991 and May 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.Results All seven patients presented varying degrees of fever,cardiac murmur and neurological symptoms.The continuous fever lasted from 21 d to 227 d (average 91 d).Mitral valve (4 cases) and aortic valve (3 cases) were the most common affected ones.The brain CT or MRI scan presented intracranial hemorrhage in 6 cases.More than 2 hemorrhage locations were found in 5 patients and parietal lobe was most common one (4 cases).All patients were treated with antimicrobial agents and three patients underwent valve replacement surgery.Three patients were cured and another 2 died due to fatal hemorrhage.Conclusions Patients with long fever history and ineffective antimicrobial treatment are prone to intracranial hemorrhage.Brain CT or MRI scan need be performed in infective endocardits when neurological symptoms are present,and brain angiography should be also considered if necessary.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the protective effect and its frequency selection of dopamine on the inner cell in cochlea when exposed to white-noise;In order to offer an important step on understanding of negative protective modulation of dopamine in the cochlear auditory afferent nerve. METHODS Forty guinea pigs were randomly divided into 4 groups and whole intracochlear perfusions were performed. ① exposed to the 100dB white-noise; ② perfused with artificial perilymph solutions; ③exposed to the white-noise and perfused with artificial perilymph solutions; ④exposed to the white-noise and perfused with Artificial perilymph solutions containing 1mmol/L dopamine. Compound action potential(CAP)evoked by different frequencies tone pip, and cochlear mirophonics(CM)evoked by 4kHz tone burst were recorded from the round window of guinea pigs before and 2h after perfusion. RESULTS In the groups exposed to the white-noise, the CM amplitude and the linearity of input-output function both significantly decreased at 2h(P

Objective To discuss the application of sperm mobility parameters in semen quality analysis. Methods The semen samples from 2343 outpatient males were examinated following theWorld Health Organization (WHO) guide, and sperm mobility parameters were also evaluated.Results There are significant difference of all sperm mobility parameters between normal and unnormal semen groups. As spermatozoa vialibity reduced, VCL、VSL、VAP、MAD、ALH、STR had decreased and BCF had increased significantly. Compared with the group which spermatozoa density and activity were both normal, LIN、STR had reduced and MAD、BCF had increased in the small quantity sperm group. All parameters were significant difference besides ALH in the lower sperm activity group. And for that in the group which spermatozoa density and activity were both unnormal, only MAD and ALH were no significant difference. Conlusion Sperm mobility parameters may serve as key parameters of semen quality analysis and play an important role in evaluating the ability of male fertility.

Objective To investigate the anti-tumor effect and mechanism of Plumbagin against human large cell lung cancer cell line NL9980.Methods Plumbagin in different concentrations were set up to administrate NL9980 cell line.MTT test was performed to detect the inhibiting effects against tumor proliferation and IC50 concentration was identified.The influence of tumor apoptosis was observed by flow cytometry and the inhibiting effect against invasive ability was detected by Boyden chamber test.IC50 group and control group were set up and tumor cells were harvested 6 h,24 h and 48 h after administration.Realtime PCR was used to detect mRNA expression changes of bcl-2,bax,VEGF and CYCD1.Results MTT test showed obvious inhibiting effects of proliferation in NL9980 cell line and IC50 was 7.5 μmol/L.Plumbagin induced the apoptosis of tumor cells and showed a significant anti-invasive effect.Mean membrane-spanning cells were 161.59±47.32 and 26.58±9.07 in control group and IC50 group correspondingly.Down-regulations of bcl-2,VEGF and CYCD1 were detected and expression of bax gene increased.The effect of Plumbagin showed obvious time dependance (P ＜0.05).Conclusion Plumbagin has displayed the powerful antitumor effects against NL9980 cell line and it might work via multiple pathways.Plumbagin exhibits the prospect of being an effective drug against large cell lung cancer.

BACKGROUND: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has been considered as an effective therapy for prevention and cure of cerebral infarction traditionally.However, some scholars suggested that hyperbaric oxygen therapy could also result in cerebral infarction, although the mechanism is unclear.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the cause of cerebral infarction due to hyperbaric oxygen therapy.DESIGN: Case-control trial with patients as subjects.SETTING: Department of Hyperbaric Oxygen, Guangzhou General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: From December 1996 to March 1998, 192 inpatients receiving hyperbaric oxygen therapy were recruited into the trial from the Department of Hyperbaric Oxygen, Guangzhou General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA. There were 127 males and 65 females aged 9-78 years. Patients admitted to the department of hyperbaric oxygen were eligible if they had hypoxia or ischemia induced disease and had no contraindication to hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Patients were recruited into the study regardless of the gender, and all patients and their family gave informed consent before enrollment. Patients were excluded if they did not receive hyperbaric oxygen therapy. According to the Diagnosis and Curing Criteria of Clinical Diseases, 6 patients developed into cerebral infarction during hyperbaric oxygen therapy, 3 males and 3 females, at the age of 51-76 years.METHODS: Patients were exposed to oxygen at 0.2 MPa in hyperbaric chamber used for many persons, and inhaled oxygen with a facemask once a day for 80 minutes with an interval of 10 minutes at the 40th minute. Ten days was considered as one course. Background and risk factors were analyzed in 6patients with cerebral infarction and 186 patients without cerebral infarction.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Analysis of distribution of risk factors among cerebral infarction patients, and risk factor levels in patients without cerebral infarction.RESULTS: Among the 6 patients with cerebral infarction, hyperlipidemia was in all 6 cases, hypertension in 5 cases, primary cerebral infarction or hemorrhage in 5 cases, ≥ 60 years old or hyperviscosity in 4 cases, and diabetes mellitus in 1 case. Risk factor aggregation existed in the patients with over four risk factors. Of the 6 patients with cerebral infarction due to hyperbaric oxygen therapy, 5 cases had 4 risk factors and 1 had 5 risk factors. Of the 186 patients without cerebral infarction, 25 cases had 4 risk factors, and no case had 5 risk factors. The risk factor aggregation was relatively impossible (x2 = 54. 37, P ＜ 0. 05 ).CONCLUSION: Risk factor aggregation was found in all cerebral infarction patients, which is closely associated with the probability of cerebral infarction resulting from hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

Objective To investigate the role of JNK in intestinal barrier dysfunction in severe septic mice treated by hydrogen. Methods Eighty male ICR mice were randomly divided into four groups (n=20 each):sham operation group, hydrogen control group, sepsis group and hydrogen treatment group. Severe sepsis rat model was reproduced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Laparotomy without CLP was performed in sham operation group and hydrogen control group. The mice in hydrogen control group and hydrogen treatment group received 1-hour inhalation of 2%hydrogen at 1 hour and 6 hours after sham operation or CLP, respectively. Ten mice of each group were selected at 20 h after CLP operation and were gavaged with fluorescein-isothiocyanate-conjugated dextran (FITC-dextran). Blood samples were obtained by cardiac puncture to measure the serum concentration of FITC-dextran 4 h after treatment with FITC-dextran . Ten mice in each group were sacrificed at 24 h after CLP operation. The colony-forming unit (CFU) numbers in the peritoneal lavage fluid were counted. The middle intestinal tissues were obtained for the measurement of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1βand high mobility group box 1(HMGB1) by ELISA. The level of phosphorylated JNK (p-JNK) and the expression of tight junction protein ZO-1 and Occludin were detected by Western blot assay. The intestinal pathological changes and epithelial ultrastructure changes were observed by light microscope and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Results There was no statistical significance in clinical variables between sham operation group and hydrogen control group. Compared with sham operation group, the serum FITC-dextran concentration, the CFU numbers in the peritoneal lavage fluid, the levels of TNF-α, IL-1βand HMGB1 in intestine, and the expression of p-JNK were significantly increased, the expression of ZO-1 and Occludin were down-regulated in sepsis group(P < 0.05). There was a significant intestinal pathological injury along with epithelial ultrastrcture injury in sepsis group. Compared with sepsis group, the serum FITC-dextran concentration, the CFU numbers in the peritoneal lavage fluid, the levels of intestinal TNF-α, IL-1β and HMGB1, and the expression of p-JNK were significantly decreased, the expression of ZO-1 and Occludin were up-regulated in hydrogen treatment group(P < 0.05), and the pathological and ultrastructure damage was significantly reduced. Conclusion Hydrogen can decrease levels of proinflammatory factors and up-regulate the expression of tight junction to improve intestinal barrier dysfunction caused by severe sepsis, which is related with the inhibition of JNK signaling pathway.
