Objective To compare the intensity of cognitive impairment and the level of pathological lesion in hippocampus induced by ischemia or chronic stress for a more valuable guidance in the treatment of post-stroke cognitive impairment(PSCI).Methods Forty male adult SD rats were divided medially into 4 groups:control,stress,ischemia and ischemia plus stress.Animals in 3 treatment groups were subjected respectively to an operation of modified selective middle cerebral artery occlusion or a procedure of continuous 3-week chronic unpredictable mild stress or a combined program of the two treatments.Morris water maze was employed to assess hippocampus-dependent learning and memory function and the brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)expression was detected by immunohistochemical staining in CA3 area and the mRNA amplification through semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results Both chronic stressors and ischemia could significantly decrease the learning and memory function in rats like the escape latency in the performance of the Morris water maze test compared with the controL The stress group was related preferentially to a more severe deterioration in the learning function but not statistically in the memory loss as compared to ischemia group.The cognitive function decreased more markedly in rats when suffered the chronic unpredictable mild stresses plus ischemia,In comparison to control,ischemia significantly increased BDNF+ cells in hippocampal CA3 area (27.0 ±2.5 vs 20.1 ±2.1),while stress markedly reduced the expression of BDNF(15.2 ± 1.8 vs 20.1 ±2.1).Their combined effects still statistically led to a reduction in BDNF expression(8.2 ± 1.5,F =52.87,P ＜0.05).The same tendency was found in BDNF mRNA expression.Conclusions Stress may preferentially and powerfully influence hippocampus-dependent cognitive function compared with ischemia and the combination of focal ischemia and stress leads to the most impairments in cognition and hippocampal BDNF expression.Data suggest that more attention should be given to the strategies to increase the resistance to psychosocial stressors and decrease the depressed symptoms for a full PSCI recovery.

Objective To investigate the influence of fast track surgery on stress and inflammatory re-sponse in breast cancer patients treated with modified radical mastectomy .Methods Ninety nine patients with breast cancer undergoing modified radical mastectomy were allocated randomly to fast track surgery group (46cases)and general group(53cases).The concentrations of serum PRA,Ang-Ⅱ,ALD,cortisol,IL-6,IL-8,TNF-αof each group were measured before operation ,12 hour,24hour and 48hour after operation by radioim-munoassay method.Operation time,operative blood loss and hospitalization days were analyzed between the two groups,simultaneously ,the incidence of subcutaneous hydrops ,flap necrosis and upper limb edema were also de-tected.Results The concentration of serum PRA ,Ang-Ⅱ,ALD,cortisol,IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-αwere no significantly differences in two groups before operation and at 48 hours after surgery(P>0.05).The concentra-tions of serum PRA,Ang-Ⅱ,ALD,cortisol,IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-αof FTS group were significantly different between the preoperative and different time points (P<0.05).The concentration of serum PRA,Ang-Ⅱ,ALD, cortisol,IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-αof FTS group were lower than that of control group at the same time point ( P<0.05).The operative time was(158.32 ±22.47)mins in FTS group and(161.32 ±22.37)mins in control group,respectively,and there were no significant statistical differences (P>0.05).The intraoperative blood loss in the FTS group(156.98 ±17.09)ml was not significantly less than that in the control group (158.57 ±16.92) ml(P=0.644).Hospitalization days were 8.37 ±1.89 and 10.37 ±2.05 in the FTS and the control group re-spectively ,with significant difference .The incidence of upper limb edema ,subcutaneous hydrops ,flap necrosis in FTS group were not less than control group .Conclusion Fast track surgery could attenuate stress and inflamma-tory response during ,and it is safe and effective in modified radical mastectomy .

Objective:The drug resistance of E.coli to fluoroquinolones is getting stronger in the recent years.This study aimed at the drug resistance of E.coli induced by fluoroquinolones in vitro,so as to provide a guidance for the rational use of antibiotics and effective control of nosocomial infections.Methods: Drug resistance was induced in vitro by a multi-step method in 10 strains of E.coli from clinical isolates with Ciprofloxacin,Levofloxacin and Gatifloxacin.The minimal inhibition concentration(MIC) of the E.coli was determined by the agar dilution method before and after the induction.Results: After in vitro induction,the E.coli acquired a high resistance(MIC ≥ 128 ?g/ml).And one drug could induce different degrees of resistance to the other two.Conclusion: The MIC of the E.coli induced by fluoroquinolones in vitro was increased by 8 to 8 205 folds compared with that before induction,which demonstrated a gradually developed resistance of E.coli strains to fluoroquinolones.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of the detection of the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) DNA typing in therapy of cervical diseases. Methods 780 cases have been studied. These cases which showed HPV-DNA positive and were diagnosed by biopsy as cervical cancer or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia( CIN Ⅰ-Ⅲ) were treated by operation or physical therapy. And 6 months and 12 months after the treatment,TCT and HPV DNA test were carried out. Results The prevalence of HPV-DNA types among the 780 cases descended from HPV 16 to 52,58,18,33 and 31. Detection rates of HPV-52 and 58 were highest among the patients with CIN Ⅰ. In patients with CIN Ⅱ,CIN Ⅲ,carcinoma in situ and invasive carcinoma,the positive rate of HPV-16 was obviously higher than other genotypes,and the difference was significant (P＜0. 01 ). 520 cases were followed-up after treatment,we found that HPV-DNA subsided within 3 months to 1 year in 432 cases. 88 cases still showed the HPV-DNA positive, among this group 48 cases were cytology diagnosed as normal or inflammation,but 14 cases were ASC-US,22 cases were LSIL and 4 cases were HSIL. Cytology abnormal cases were mere often detected in patients with persistent HPV-positive than in patients with HPV-negative. Conclusion Referring patients with cervical diseases the common HPV genotypes are 16,52,58,18,33 and 31. Especially HPV-16 are closely related with cervical cancer and high-level cervical intraepithelial neoplasis. HPV-DNA turn negative in most patients in 12 months after treatment. Persistent infection of HPV-DNA is related with the pathological changes persist.

Abundant experiences have already been accumulated in treatment of stroke with acupuncture. Development of rehabilitation theory also brings unprecedented opportunity and challenge to acupuncture. Combined with the modern rehabilitation theory and practice, it is very helpful to deepen the understanding on treatment of acupuncture for cerebral apoplexy and enhance the therapeutic effect in clinic by studying the mechanism of acupuncture treatment, opportunity of intervention, selection of acupoints, needling manipulations and quantity of stimulations etc. Through analysis on the necessity and the way of combination of acupuncture and modern rehabilitation, it is concluded that rehabilitation evaluation, rehabilitation phases and obstacle analysis should be taken as references by acupuncturists to reinforce the therapeutic effect and creditability of acupuncture treatment on cerebral apoplexy.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of minimally invasive evacuation of intracerebral hematoma in dog model of cerebral hemorrhage by using Purdy score, serum levels of neuron-specific-enolase (NSE) and numbers of perihematomal apoptotic cells. Method Twenty dogs were selected to prepoxe the model of cerebral hemorrhage, and they were randomly divided( random number) into minimally invasive treatment group and control group. Minimally invasive procedures were performed to evacuate the hematoma in minimally invasive treatment group in 6 hours after the models were established. The dogs of control group only received medical treatment. Purdy score and serum levels of neuron-specific-enolase were determined on 1,3,5,7 days after the evacuation of the hemotoma and apoptotic cells were counted after the dogs were sacrificed at 7 days after operation. All the results were compared with control group. Purdy score and serum levels of neuron-specific-enolase were compaired with variance analysis of repeated measurement design and apoptotic cells was compared with variance analysis of factorial design,the difference of the two groups showed with q test. P <0.01 showed the difference was significant. Results The Purdy scores in minimally invasive treatment group were 6.3 ± 1.702, 5.8 ± 1. 685,4.2 ± 1.762 and 4.1 ± 1.875 on 1,3,5 and 7 day after evacuation of the hematoma, significant difference was observed as compared with the control group(8.9 ± 1.632, 8.6± 1.342, 7.8±1.335, 7.9±1.468, P <0.01).The serum levels of neuron-specific-enolase were 0.632 ± 0.077, 0.721±0.771, 0.549±0.124 and 0.430 ±0.136 respectively in minimally invasive treatment group, while in the control group were 0.934 ± 0. 064, 0. 997 ±0.075, 0.986 ± 0.042, 0.874 ± 0.165, significant differences in serum levels of neuron-specific-enolase were found between the two groups(P < 0.01). The perihematomal apoptotic cells in minimally invasive treatment group(37.4 cells) was decreased significantly as compared with the control group(88.6 cells), with P < 0.01.Conclusions Minimally invasive procedures for evacuation of intracerbral hematoma might significantly reduce the neurological deficit score and decrease the serum neuron-specific enolase levels and numbers of apeptotic neurons.
