Objective To study the protective effect of Qidan Tongmai Tablet (QDTMT) on the (injury) induced by acute myocardial ischemia. Methods Acute myocardial ischemia was induced by sc isoproterenol (Iso, 5 mg/kg) into SD rats pretreated with ig QDTMT (2 g/kg) for two weeks. Activities of Ca~(2+)-(ATPase) in myocardial mitochondria and content of Ca~(2+) in myocardium and myocardial mitochondria were determined by colorimetric method. The changes of myocardial ultrastructure were investigated by means of transmission electron microscope. Results Compared with the controls, activities of Ca~(2+)-(ATPase) in mitochondrion were strengthened in QDTMT group and the content of Ca~(2+) was decreased ((P

Objective To study the expansion and purification of human retinal progenitors cultured in vitro.(Methods Human) embryonic retinal progenitor cells(RPCs) were cultured.The characteristics of neural stem cell were observed.The expression of Nestin was examined flow cytometry(FCM) for the comparsion between the primary and secondary passages.The differentiation of RPCs had been observed after that they had been cultured in different conditions.Results Human RPCs had proliferated and formed cell clusters with a shape of neurosphere.After digestion,the scattered progenitors formed secondary neurosphere-like cell clusters.The cells in those clusters expressed Nestin and were negative for the mature retinal cell proteins.After spontaneous differentiation,the retinal progenitors expressed special proteins of mature retinal cells,including neuron specific enolase(NSE),glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP),protein kinase C(PKC) and Syntaxin-1.The expression of Nestin in the secondary culture passage was(39.3?18.9)%,which was significantly higher than that of the primary passage [(28.7?17.7)%](P

The paper discusses the importance of bioethics,which is a love of life.Bioethics is the ethics of love.Three parts are included in the paper: love is foundation of bioethics;love is core of existence of bioethics;love impels bioethics to further develop.Love instructs the choice of objective bioethics in the toleration circumstance.Furthermore,love can impel the construction of bioethics in the progress of medical beneficence development.

Objective To explore the association between epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness and left ventricular remodeling,left ventricular dysfunction in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).Methods One hundred and sixteen patients with DCM (DCM group) and 76 healthy subjects (control group) were examined by ultrasoundcardiogram.Left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD),left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV),left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV),left ventricular end-systolic volume index (LVESVI),left ventficular end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVI),left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and EAT thickness were measured or calculated,and the relationship was evaluated.Results EAT thickness in DCM group was significantly lower than that in control group [(4.7 ± 1.2) mm vs.(7.6 ± 2.1) mm],and there was statistical difference (P ＜ 0.05).The linear correlation analysis results showed there was positive correlation between EAT thickness and LVESD,LVEDD,LVESV,LVEDV,LVEDVI,LVESVI (r =0.236,0.220,0.245,0.256,0.282,0.279,P ＜ 0.05),and there was no relationship between EAT thickness and LVEF (r =0.134,P ＞0.05).Conclusions In patients with DCM,there is a correlation between EAT thickness and ventricular remodeling.There is no correlation between EAT thickness and left ventricular dysfunction.

Radiotherapy is an important treatment for malignant tumors, but it will have a negative impact on the reproductive function of young female patients.In recent years, the measures to protect female fertility are increasing, including clinical mature technologies such as embryo cryopreservation and mature oocyte cryopreservation; highly experimental technologies such as immature oocyte in vitro fertilization and ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation.In addition, the application of stem cells and the proposal of artificial ovary also show great prospects in the protection of female fertility.This paper reviews the research progress of female fertility protection strategies in radiotherapy.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the processing technology of nine steaming nine drying of Rehmannia glutinosa. METH-ODS:L9(34) orthogonal experimental design was adopted to investigate the effects of the amount of added wine,steaming time and drying way on processing technology using the content and property of 5-hydroxymethyl furfural,acteoside,reducing sugar wa-ter extract,and character score as indexes. Comprehensive balance method was used for result evaluation,and optimized technolo-gy was validated. RESULTS:The optimized processing condition was as follows as the amount of added yellow wine 40%,steam-ing for 9 times,lasting for 6 h each time,blast drying at 70 ℃. Average value of each factor in validation test was 4.030 mg/g, 0.117 mg/g,0.376 7 g/g,0.733 g/g and 9.0 points,respectively. Their RSDs were 1.78%,2.9%,1.54%,2.13% and 0.1%(n=3). CONCLUSIONS:Optimized technology is reasonable and controllable in product quality,and can provide reference for quality control study of nine steaming nine drying of R. glutinosa.

The establishment of open-loop psychiatric ward is an innovation for mental disease treatment,while new legal and ethical issues become evident.For instance,psychiatric patients with no guardians or agents can not normally sign the informed consent form at hospitalization.It is extremely difficult to make a definite diagnosis in some cases.Informed consent form is refused by certain guardians due to the misunderstanding of psychiatric diseases.This paper explores those legal and ethical issues arising in the medical treatment in open-loop psychiatric ward,and comes up with relevant countermeasures.

OBJECTIVE To establish mice model of allergic rhinitis(AR) and study the role of Staphylococcal enterotoxin B(SEB)and ovalbumin(OVA)in the model,and investigate the change of regulatory T cell(Treg)in the nasal mucosa of mice.METHODS Forty Balb/c mice were randomized into OVA group(A),SEB group(B),OVA+SEB group(C)and normal solution group(D).AR model was established.The symptom scores and count of Foxp3 positive cells in nasal mucosa were analyzed by factorial design.RESULTS The symptom scores in Group A,B,C,D were 0.90?0.99,0.70?0.82,6.80?1.03,0.60?0.70 respectively.Group C was successfully established as AR model.OVA and SEB had interaction(P

Objective To evaluate the asynchrony of right ventricle(RV) and its significance in idiopathic pulmonary artery hypertension(IPAH) patients by quantitative tissue velocity imaging.Methods Twenty-five normal people,26 IPAH patients were studied.RV structure parameter(thickness of lateral wall,late diastolic and systolic area and fractional area change) and function parameter [peak systolic velocity(Sa),early diastolic velocity(Ea),late diastolic velocity of tricuspid annulus of lateral wall and Tei index] were measured and calculated.Regional velocity profiles of 6 segments of RV were obtained.The time from onset of QRS complexes to Sa and Ea(T_(Q-S),T_(Q-E)) of 6 segments were measured.The maximal difference in T_(Q-S) and T_(Q-E) in the same wall(Intra-?T_(Q-S),Intra-?T_(Q-E)),the same segment(Inter-?T_(Q-S),Inter-?T_(Q-E)) and all 6 segments(Max-?T_(Q-S),Max-?T_(Q-E)) were calculated.Results Compared with controls,Inter-?T_(Q-S),Inter-?T_(Q-E),Max-?T_(Q-S) and Max-?T_(Q-E) were significantly prolonged in IPAH patients(P(0.05)).Max-?T_(Q-S) and Max-?T_(Q-E) were correlated with structure and function parameter in IPAH patients.Conclusions Asynchrony exists in RV and have good relation with RV structure and function in IPAH patients.
