The regenerating sciatic nerve of rat was teased into single nerve fibers at various intervals in 98 days after crushing. By image analysis, it was found that the values of architectural parameters of axon and myelin sheath, such as axonal diameter, myelin sheath thickess, their surface area and volume all increased apparently before 56 days, no any significant change was revealed between 56～98 days, and did not reach the level of each individual parent stump even upto 98 th day. In comparison of the architectural changes between axon and myelin sheath further, a parallel development in time course was demonstrated. The result not only indicated that a close relationship existed between axon and myelin sheath during regeneration, but also provided a further evidence that nerve regeneration was cooperated by the interation of both neuronal and nonneuronal regulators, which has been reported previously.

Objective To summarize the clinical symptoms and endoscopic features of hepatogenic ulcer hemorrhage so as to strengthen the recognition of this disease.Methods The clinical data of 42 patients with hepatogenic ulcer hemorrhage from January 2000 to May 2005 were analyzed retrospectively.Results The clinical symptoms were multiple,including melena in 42 cases(100%),hematemesis in 30 cases(71.4%),abdominal distention in 35 cases(83.3%),abdominal pain in 9 cases(21.4%) and acid regurgitation in 18 cases(42.9%).Emergency endoscopy could find active hemorrhage of stomach or duodenum and ulcer lesions with blood scab;The ulcer shape was round or ellipse.The stage under endoscopy all was A_1,17 patients combined with portal hypertensive gastropathy.35 patients was homeostasis after medical conservative treatment,the effective rate was 83.3%,7 patients needed surgical operation.Conclusion Hepatogenic ulcer hemorrhage is not rare,it is an important factor of upper gastrointestinal bleeding in liver cirrhosis.Emergency endoscopy can make a correct diagnosis in time and guide to choose the best treatment planning.

Objective To explore the protective effect and the mechanism of fastigial nucleus electric stimulation on brain of rats with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage(HIBD).Methods Ninety rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:sham operated group(n=30),model group(n=30)and electric stimulation group(n=30),every group was divided into group A(n=10),group B(n=10)and group C(n=10)again.The models of perinatal HIBD rats were prepared by ligation of left common carotid artery with a temporary systemic hypoxia(N2O2 was 928)for 2 hours.Electric stimulation group was used electric stimulation for 20 minutes,2 times everyday after surgery.The sham operated group and model group was not used electric stimulation but catched to fix in corresponding period.All of the group A would be injected bromodeoxyuridine(BrdU)to enterocoelia before 8 hours when the rats would be killed and the group B would be not injected it.The rats of the group A and B would be killed and got the brain tissue after cardiac perfusion 7 days later,then,consecutively coronal slice.The changes of BrdU and nestin levels in brain were observed by immunohistochemistry staining assay.And the study and memory ability of all the group C would be tested by maze test after 28 days.The brain tissue would be tested by hematoxylin and eosin stain at the same time.All of the data would be described and analyzed by SPSS 13.0.More than a few means would be compared by One-Way analysis of variance and the t-test between 2 groups would be used.Results The BrdU and nestin levels of the model group were lower than the sham operated group(Pa

Objective To observe the effects of physical agents therapy on serum hs-CRP, TNF-α andadiponectin in patients with cerebral infarction and the possible underlying mechanisms. Methods Sixty patientswith cerebral infarction were randomly and equally divided into two groups: 30 cases were treated with physical a-gents therapy ( physical therapy group) , and 30 with drugs only ( drug treated group). Thirty normal subjectsserved as the control group. The level of hs-CRP in the serum was determined by latex agglutination reaction, TNF-and adiponectin were determined by using ELISA before and after therapy. Results The levels of serum hs-CRP and TNF-α of patients with cerebral infarction before therapy were much higher than those of the control group,but adiponectin was significantly lower than those of the control group( P < 0.01 ). After therapy, the levels of ser-um hs-CRP and TNF-α were decreased and adiponectin was increased significantly in both treated groups ( P <0.01 ). Comparison with two treated groups showed that the levels of hs-CRP and TNF-α were lower and adiponec-tin was obviously higher in physical agents therapy group than those in the drug treated group ( P < 0.05 ). Con-clusion The patients with cerebral infarction have low level of serum adiponectin. Physical therapy might exertbeneficial effects on patients with cerebral infarction by the decreasing serum hs-CRP and TNF-α, as well as by ele-vating adiponectin.

Objective:To study the treatment effect of zoledronic acid and letrozole on life quality of postmenopausal women with breast cancer operation. Methods:Totally 26 patients were in the control group,and given letrozole,and 23 patients were in the treat-ment group with zoledronic and letrozole. The patients in the two groups were assessed bone mineral density ( BMD) of hip and lumbar vertebrate before the treatment and the 6th and 12th month after the treatment. BALP, CTX, VAS, FACT-B and adverse reactions were also assessed at the 6th and 12th month after the treatment. Results:Improvement of BMD and FACT-B in the treatment group was sig-nificantly better than that in the control group. BALP, CTX and VAS in the treatment group were all decreased more significantly than those in the control group (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). There was no significant difference in the metastasis between the two groups (P>0. 05). Conclusion:By preventing bone loss and increasing BMD, the combination of zoledronic acid and letrozole can effectively im-prove the life quality of postmenopausal women with breast cancer operation.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of resveratrol (Rsv) on psoriasis like skin damage induced by imiquimod (IMQ) and study its mechanism.Methods BALB/c mice were randomly divided into four groups:control group,Rsv group,model (IMQ) group and Rsv treatment (IMQ + Rsv) group with six mice in each group.Psoriasis like skin model induced by smearing IMQ in the mice's ear for 8 d,20 mg Rsv cream were gave at the same time for treatment.Observe erythema and psoriasis degree,and measure ear thickness with vemier caliper.HE staining was used to observe tissue change,real time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect K17,IL-17A,IL-19 and IL-23 mRNA and Western blotting were used to detected K17 protein expression in tissues.Results Compared with the model group,mice erythema area and the thickness of epidermal scale decreased significantly in Rsv treatment group;HE staining results showed that,Rsv significantly reduced ear marginal tissue epidermal thickness,and diminished severity of the psoriasis-like skin inflammation.qRT-PCR and Western blotting confirmed a Rsv dependent decrease of in K17,IL-17A and IL-19 in mRNA level and protein levels of K17.Conclusion Rsv improves psoriasis like skin damage by down-regulating expression of Keratinl 7.

Objective To investigate the intervention ways of endoscopes in the treatment of esophagus stenosis due to carcinoma of esophagus and improvement of quality. Method 11 cases of advanced carcinoma of esophagus were included in this study. Operation and chemical therapy were unavailable for these patients. Memory trestle with membrane and made of alloy of Nickel－ titanium was inserted under intervention of endoscope. Trestle was posed in stenosis part of esophagus under direction of X－ ray. Trestle could be dilated 3－ 7 days after operation due to its reaction characteristics to temperature. So, redilated therapy was unnecessary. Trestle could reconstruct swallowing tract and made feeding through mouth become available during limited survival time.Results All trestles were successfully inserted.Half－ fluid feeding was available after operation. Obstruction was removed in all patients(100％ ).Conclusion Method described in this study was safe and effective .Effective swallowing tracts were reconstructed in all patients after trestle was planted and quality of life and survival time were both improved.

Objective To evaluate the protective effectiveness of intranasal immunizations with recombinated-pneumococcal autolysin(Re-LytA), which protects mice against local and systemic Streptococ- cus pneumoniae(Sp) infection. Methods Testing group (group A): CpG as an adjuvant, the mice were intranasally immunized with purified Re-LytA, obtained by affinity chromatograph. The negative control group(group B) were intranasally immunized with sterile saline. And the positive control group (group C) were received 23-valent polysaccharide commercial vaccine through intramuscular injection. All the samples were collected 2 weeks post the last immunization. The levels of antibody was determined by ELISA. Then the mice were challenged intraperitoneally and intranasally with Sp, respectively. The infection and coloniza- tion was followed by monitoring colony-forming units of Sp in the blood, homogenized lung, and nasopharyn- geal lavage fluid 4 days post intranasal immunization. The mice were observed daily to note the livability of each group. Results The level of the LytA antibody (IgG, IgA, slgA) in group A were higher than that in group B and C (P < 0.05). Neither the LytA nor polysaccharide antibody could be detected in group B. Polysaccharide antibody could be detected in group C. After challenged intraperitoneally there was no signifi- cant difference in survival rates between group A and group C (P > 0.05), which was significant higher than that in group B (P <0.05). After challenged intranasally, compared with the group A, the geometric mean colony-forming units washed from the nasopharyngeal lavage fluid of the group B and group C were signifi- cantly higher (P <0.05). Conclusion lntranasal immunizations with Re-LytA can protect mice against lo- cal and systemic pneumococcal infection, and the protective immunity may be related to sIgA.

AIM: To compare intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuations measured at home and in the clinic over a 24-hour period.METHODS: A prospective investigational study.A total of 120 Chinese participants were selected from five communities in the Chengdu area.Patients underwent a clinical interview and IOP was measured both at home and in the clinic.IOP were measured at 8 a.m., 10 a.m., 12 a.m., 2 p.m., 4 p.m., 6 p.m., 8 p.m., 10 p.m., 2 a.m., 6 a.m.using the same pneumatonometer.Measurements were taken in the sitting position.RESULTS: The average 24-hour IOP measured in the clinic was slightly lower than that at home.The mean difference in 24-hour IOP measurements between home and clinic was 0.27 mmHg.The IOP fluctuation in the clinic was higher than at home (the mean difference was 0.01 mmHg).There was no statistically significant difference in the average 24-hour IOP measured at home vs in the clinic.The average IOP measured at 2 p.m.at home (16.04±5.95 mmHg) was significantly higher compared with the measurement in the clinic (15.43±5.16 mmHg) (P<0.05).The overall agreement between 24-hour IOP measurements made in the clinic and at home in diagnosis of primary open angle glaucoma was 85.0% (K coefficient: 0.68).CONCLUSION: The 24-hour IOP measured in the clinic was similar to that measured at home, and the method of measuring IOP in the clinic is acceptable in diagnosing primary open angle glaucoma.
