Objective: To introduce 3 methods for preparation of stomach-conserving gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)model in rats, so as to improve the quality and successful rate of model preparation. Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into sham-operated(SO) group (n=20) and 3 stomach-conserving reflex model groups: duodenogastroesophageal reflux (DGER) group (n=47, esophagogastroduodenal anastomosis), gastroesophageal reflux(GER) group(n=20, partial pyloric ligation + cardiomyotomy followed by gastric fundus-esophagus anastomosis) and duodenoesophageal reflux (DER) group (n=21, jejuno-esophageal anastomosis followed by duodeno-esophageal anastomosis). Rats were observed closely after operation and their body weights were monitored. The rats that died unexpectedly were autopsied immediately and the surviving rats were sacrificed to observe the esophageal pathological changes at 1, 2, 3, and 4 months after operation. Results: Three rats died due to anesthetic accidents; 26 (24 .1%) died unexpectedly after operation, 18(38.3%)in DGER group, 1 (5%) in GER group, and 7(33.3%)in DER group; no rat died in SO group. Necropsy showed that the death cause of rats included obstruction, infection, asphyxia, hemorrhage, anastomosis leakage and perforation, etc. Esophageal pathological changes were noticed in all rats of 3 model groups; the life quality of surviving rats was good. Conclusion: The 3 methods for establishing rat stomach-conserving GERD model can produce high quality model and high rate of pathological changes, but with high post-operation mortality. In addition to rational operative methods, avoiding post-operation complications and unexpected death are also very important for successful GERD model preparation.

Peripheral nerve injuries, the worldwide difficult and complicated diseases, cause serious dysfunction but without ideal strategies to assist the successful treatment and recovery. The primary strategy to repair the peripheral nerve injuries is to bridge the lesions by promoting axon regeneration. The importance of mechanical factors in the nervous system has been appreciated only recently. It has been demonstrated that the application of external mechanical force is able to direct axonal outgrowth and to stimulate axonal elongation. For this purpose, to direct axonal growth cones in vivo with accurate force appears to be a challenge that must be resolved. Bionanotechnology is promising a new tool that offers the possibility to influence the process of axonal regeneration. The magnetic force generated by the interaction between Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and magnetic fields provides remote, non-invasive, accurate, and controllable lead and control of neuronal axon regeneration.

Objective: To study the impact of ticagrelor on inlfammatory factors in patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods: Based on conventional medication, a total of 100 UAP patients after PCI were randomly divided into 2 groups for anti-platelet therapy:Treatment group, the patients received aspirin+ticagrelor and Control group, the patients received aspirin+clopidogrel. n=50 in each group, all patients were treated for 12 months. Plasma levels of inlfammatory factors were examined before treatment and 24h, 7d, 28d after the operation. The patients were followed-up for 12 months for ischemic events, bleeding events and adverse drug reactions.
Results: Before treatment, plasma levels of IL-6, IL-18, TNF-α, PDGF were similar between 2 groups (t=0.1356, 0.1668, 0.2473, 0.5780, all P>0.05). At 24h post-operation, the above inlfammatory factors were signiifcantly increased by peaks in both groups and decreased thereafter. At 24h, 7d and 28d post-operation, the levels of IL-6, IL-18, TNF-a, PDGF in Treatment group were all lower than Control group at each corresponding time point (at 24 post-operation, t=2.0856, 2.4399, 2.2217, 2.2053, all P<0.05), (at 7d post-operation, t=6.0978, 5.9705, 4.4631, 4.3963, all P<0.01) and (at 28d post-operation, t=9.3779, 9.7724, 5.5855, 6.1700, all P<0.01). The follow-up study presented that at 12 months post-operation, the ischemic events in Treatment group was lower than Control group (χ2=4.3956, P<0.05);there were no small hemorrhage or major bleeding events occurred;the slight adverse drug reaction was similar between 2 groups (χ2=0.1773, P>0.05).
Conclusion: Compared to clopidogrel, ticagrelor could better decrease plasma levels of inlfammatory factors, it may reduce ischemic events without elevate bleeding events.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antibiotic resistance of isolated pathogens in neonatal sepsis. Methods The results of blood culture and drug susceptibility test in neonates sepsis from January 2012 to June 2013 were retro-spectively analyzed. Results One hundred and thirty-two strains were detected in the blood samples, with 100(75.76%)Gram-positive bacteria, 30 (22.73%) Gram-negative bacteria and 2 (1.52%) fungus. Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were the three most common pathogens. Gram-positive cocci was strongly resistant to penicillin (100.00%), erythromycin, selectrin and ampicillin/sulbactam (62.50%-100.00%), but still sensitive to vancomycin and teico-planin. The resistance rate of Gram-negative bacilli to ampicillin was 100.00%, and the resistance rate to cefatriaxone, selectrin and cefuroxime was 61.54%-100.00%. The resistance rate to imipenem and piperacillin/tazobactam was lower. Conclusions The selection of sensitive antibiotics should be based on the pathogens and drug resistance testing for the treatment of neonatal sepsis.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the curative efficacy of granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) as an adjunctive therapy for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). METHODS: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of GM-CSF in the treatment of AML were retrieved from PubMed,EMBase,Cochrane Library,CBMdisc and CNKI database by computer as well as from the leukemia-related journals manually for a quality evaluation of the methodology and Meta analysis using RevMan5.0 software. RESULTS: A total of 10 RCTs were included,of which,3 RCTs were graded as A,5 as B and 2 as C. The results demonstrated that there were no significant differences of indexes among groups as complete remission (CR) rate,relapse rate,infection rate and length of hospital stay,etc. CONCLUSION: The available clinical research results showed that GM-CSF adjunctive therapy could neither increase CR rate,nor decrease the relapse rate,infection rate or length of hospital stay.

The paper is to report the development of an optic-fiber sensing technology method to analyze metronidazole tablets rapidly. In this fiber-optic sensing system, the light from source delivering to probe can be dipped into simple-handling sample solution, absorbed by the solution and reflected to the fiber-optic and detected in the detection system at last. Then the drug content can be shown in the screen from the ultraviolet absorption spectra and the consistency between that obtained by this method and that in China Pharmacopoeia can be compared. With regard to data processing, a new method is explored to identify the authenticity of drugs using the similarity between the sample map and the standard pattern by full ultraviolet spectrum. The results indicate that ultraviolet spectra of tablets can be obtained from this technology and the determination results showed no significant difference as compared with the method in China Pharmacopoeia (P > 0.05), and the similarity can be a parameter to identify the authenticity of drugs.

The response of glueagon to the change of glucose and its relation to blood pressure in 71 eidely patients with type 2 diabetes was investigated. The results showed that the postprandial increment of glucagon in the group of patients with postprandial 2h plasma glucose increment<2.5 mmol/L was significantly higher than that in the group with plasma glucose inerement≥ 2.5 mmoi/L (P<0. 05). The postprandial increment of glucagon in patients with normal blood pressure was significantly higher than that in patients with hypertension (P<0.05). The results suggest that the decreased response of glucagon to the change in plasma glucose in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes is related to increased blood glucose and high blood pressure.
