The Journal of Practical Medicine 2016;32(18):3038-3040
Objective To investigate the relationship between plasma cell mastitis and prolactin. Methods The relationship between the lesion area , degree of inverted nipple and prolactin level of 228 plasma cell mastitis patients were observed , as well as their prolactin level before and after treatment , to explore the factors that influence relapse. Results There was no significant statistical relationship between prolactin level and lesions area and degree of inverted nipple. Prolactin level before and after treatment were statistically different (t =2.347,P = 0.02). Menstrual status, nipple status, comorbidities, lesion area and prolactin level were considered, only prolactin level was related with disease recurrence (P = 0.038). Conclusion prolactin level could significantly reduced as the disease cured , but elevated prolactin may lead to relapse of the disease.

The preventive effects of starch-Fe and sucrose-Fe on iron deficiency anemia were investigated. Weaning rats were used as experimental animal, and divided into starch-Fe, sucrose-Fe, ferrous sulfate and control group. The former 3 groups were set for the Fe deficiency preventive group and each animal received elemental iron 5-6mg per kg body weight per day according to its preparation demand orally. The control group was given ordinary diet only. After 24-day feeding with its experimental diet serum iron(SI), serum ferritin (SF) and hemoglobin (Hb) of the animal were measured. The results revealed that SI (?g/dl) was 111.08 ? 22.30,118.64?26.80, 136.81?54.36 and 83.44?22.60; SF (ng/ml) was 12.69?3.19, 14.52?1.98, 16.91?2.02 and 7.51?2.09; Hb (g/dl) was 10.71?0.63, 10.96 ?0.45, 11.01?0.84 and 8.46 ? 1.27 respectively. This suggested that the starch-Fe and sucrose-Fe could be well absorbed and probably favorable to rescue children from iron deficiency anemia.

Objective To evaluate the changes of QT dispersion (QTd) after successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) or stent implantation during the recovery period after acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods We studied 57 AMI patients who underwent PTCA or stent implantation and 86 normal coronary artery subjects used as control. Maximal and minimal QT interval (QT max and QT min) and QTd (QTd=QT max-QT min) were measured using 12-lead electrocardiography within 1 d before and 1 h after PTCA and stent implantation or coronary angiography.Results QTd and corrected QT dispersion (QTcd) were significantly prolonged in patients with AMI compared with control group. There was no significant difference in QTd and QTcd between anterior AMI and inferior one. QT max, QTc max, QTd and QTcd after PTCA or stent implantation were significantly decreased.Conclusion QTd and QTcd were significantly decreased after successful PTCA or stent implantation which were performed during the recovery period of AMI, which shows it can produce beneficial effects in decreasing the risk of ventricular arrhythmia and reducing mortality in AMI patients.

Aim To investigate the protective effects and mechanism of aspirin against focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats. Methods Right middle cerebral artery was occluded by inserting a thread through internal carotid artery for 2 h, and then reperfused for 72 h. 60 mg?kg -1 dose of aspirin was intragastric administrated at 0 h and 6 h after reperfusion. The brain injured area, the mortality, and cerebral edema were estimated. The apoptotic cells of brain tissue were detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP-biotin nick-end labeling (TUNEL) method. Bcl-2 and Bax were detected by immunohistochemical staining method. The activity of calcineurin (CaN) in brain tissue was determined by the inorganic phosphorus method. The content of adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) in brain tissue was separated by capillary electrophoresis. Results By using of aspirin 60 mg?kg -1, all indications were dramatically improved. The injured area of brain [from (10.51?1.12)% to (0.94?0.08)%], the cerebral edema of occluded side [from (82.43?2.0)% to (76.29?0.77)%], and the mortality [from 28% to 0%] were dramatically reduced. In brain tissue of occluded side, 60 mg?kg -1 aspirin helped to reduce the number of apoptotic cells from (26.43?2.0) to (17.53?0.44), increase the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax from (0.61?0.05) to (1.01?0.15), inhibit the activity of CaN from (6.03?1.5) to (3.47?0.96), and improve the ATP level from (10.26?1.02) to (25.65?3.45). Conclusion The neuroprotective effects of aspirin on focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats for 72 h might be attributed to its effects by anti-apoptosis, increasing the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax, inhibiting the activity of CaN, and improving the energy metabolism.
