AIM To develop a simple reasonable and provable model of hypophysis shut off in rats with dexamethasone. METHODS Dexamethasone 6 mg?kg -1 was injected subcutaneously into two groups of rats at 3:00～3:30 pm on the preceding day. This dose was repeated at 9:00～9:30 am next day. The control group was treated with saline in the same way. One hour later, one of the dexamethasone treated groups was ig with Z47 200 mg?kg -1 , the other dexamethasone treated group and the control group was ig with 0 5% CMC. Then all the groups were ip with 0 086 mol?L -1 HAc in order to generate stress reaction. The reduction of the content of Vit C in adrenal gland was taken as the index of secretion of ACTH. RESULTS The content of Vit C in NS CMC HAc was obviously lower than in Dex CMC HAc group. There were statistically significant differences ( P

Objective To compare the operative results of three kinds VATS on the treatment of young people with SP. Methods 108 young SP patients treated with VATS were involved in the research. 42 cases re?ceived three?port,35 cased double port and 31 cases uniport. Operation period,perioperative blood loss,time of intrathoracic drain tube,postoperative length of stay and postoperative pain were compared. Results No statistical difference was found in terms of operation duration between three?port VATS and double port VATS group (P >0.05). The postoperative pain in double port VATS and uniportal VATS lighter than uniportal VATS (P<0.05) . No statistical difference was found in terms of postoperative pain between double port VATS and uniport VATS group (P>0.05). Perioperative blood loss ,time of intrathoracic drain tube and postoperative length of stay showed no dif?ference in 3 groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Double port VATS has both the advantages of shorter operation time and lighter postoperative pain and was worth being popularized.

Objective To explore the expression characteristic of T regulatory cell (Treg)/T help cell (Th)17 and the correlation to disease progression in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients undergoing antivirus treatment,and to explore their roles in pathogenesis of CHB.Methods A total of 53 patients with CHB (CHB group) and 21 healthy controls (healthy control group) were selected,CHB patients included mild 18 cases,moderate 16 cases and severe 19 cases.The expression of Treg and Th17 were detected by flow cytometry and compared.The levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT),total bilirubin (TBIL),cholinesterase,albumin were measured by automatic biochemical machine and for correlation analysis.Results The levels ofTh17,Treg,Treg/Th17 were (2.13 ± 0.65)％,(2.99 ± 0.68)％ and (6.07 ± 1.18)％,(5.14 ± 0.96)％ and 2.86 ± 0.67,1.73 ± 0.45 in CHB group before and after treatment for 24 weeks and (3.59 ± 0.75)％,(4.02 ± 0.77)％,1.04 ± 0.34 in healthy control group.There were significant differences (F =14.78,10.12,17.19; P ＜ 0.01).The level of Th17 in mild,moderate and severe CHB was gradually decreased,but there was no significant difference (F =1.10,P =0.337).The level of Treg in mild,moderate and severe CHB patients was gradually increased,but there was no significant difference (F =0.54,P =0.585).The level of Treg/Th17 was gradually increased with aggravation (2.58 ± 0.59,2.76 ± 0.63,3.21 ± 0.71),and there was significant difference (F =3.15,P ＜ 0.01),the level of Treg/Th17 in severe CHB patients was significantly higher than that in mild,moderate CHB patients (P ＜0.05).The level of Treg/Th17 had significantly positive correlation with ALT,TBIL (r =0.272,P=0.000; r =0.226,P=0.000).Conclusion Treg/Th17 balance not only relates with the pathogenesis of CHB,but also with the related immune inflammatory of liver tissue.

[Objective] To observe the effect of Jiedu Lifei Oral Liquid (JLOL, mainly composed of Flos Lonicerae,Fructus Forsythiae, Radix Scutellariae, Bulbus Frityllariae, etc. ) on the immune function in mice with viral pniumonia.[Methods] Sixty mice were randomized into 5 groups: normal group (A), model group (B), virazole group (C), small-dose JLOL group (D) and large-dose JLOL group (E). Mouse models of viral pheumonia were induced by infection ofinfluenza virus FM1. Effects of JLOL on serum levels of interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-2 (IL-2), tumor necrosisfactor ? (TNF-?) and interferon ? (IFN-?) were observed. [Results] Compared with normal group, serum levels of IL-1 and (IFN-? were decreased and TNF-? increased (P 0.05 ) in model group.After treatment wth JLOL, serum levels of IL-2 and IFN-? were increased , TNF-? decreased (P 0.05). [ Conclusion] JLOL can increase the immune function by increasing the serumlevels of IL2 and IFN-? and can reduce the immune impairment by inhibiting the over production of TNF-?.

BACKGROUND:Massive blood loss was caused by an over-reactive fibrinolytic system, as a sequence of tourniquet usage and surgery trauma in total knee arthroplasty. As an antifibrinolytic drug, tranexamic acid has been proven to decrease not only the obvious and total blood loss, but also the ratio of alograft blood transfusion in total knee arthroplasty. Nevertheless, the effect of tranexamic acid on hidden blood loss in total knee arthroplasty had not been clarified yet. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of intravenous infusion of tranexamic acid on hidden blood loss in primary total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:Clinical data of 54 patients who received primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty in the Third Hospital, Peking University from June to December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into two groups according to the use of tranexamic acid. 22 patients in the tranexamic acid group were given 2 g tranexamic acid by intravenous infusion during surgery. 32 patients in the control group were given an equal volume of physiological saline. Patients in both groups were oraly given anticoagulant rivaroxaban after replacement. Hemoglobin level and blood hematocrit were recorded before and after surgery for 5 consecutive days. The total amount of blood loss and hidden blood loss were calculated by using Cross equation. The difference in the amount of blood loss was compared between the two groups. Lower extremity venous ultrasound examination was conducted at 1 week after replacement to determine deep venous thrombosis in the lower limb. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No significant difference in general data and perioperative conditions was detected between the two groups (P > 0.05). Postoperative drainage, dominant blood loss, total blood volume, the amount of autologous blood transfusion and the amount of alogeneic blood transfusion were significantly less in the tranexamic acid group than in the control group (P < 0.05). According to Gross formula, the difference of hidden blood loss was statisticaly significant between the tranexamic acid group (302.9±189.9) mL and the control group (596.8±271.4) mL (P < 0.05). Deep vein thrombosis appeared in one case between the two groups after replacement. Results indicate that intravenous infusion of tranexamic acid dramaticaly decreased the hidden blood loss in unilateral total knee arthroplasty, reduced alogeneic blood transfusion, and simultaneously did not increase the incidence of deep vein thrombosis in the lower limb.

Objective To investigate the relationship between platelet-derived growth factor(PDGF)and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor(G-CSF)and psoriasis vulgaris.Methods Sera were taken from60patients with psoriasis vulgaris and42healthy controls.The serum levels of PDGF and G-CSF were measured by a dual antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Clinical severity of psoriasis vul-garis was assessed by psoriasis area and severity index(PASI)score.Results The serum PDGF levels were significantly higher in patients with psoriasis vulgaris than those in normal controls(P

Aim To develop a modified model of subarachnoid hemorrhage in rats. Motheds The SAH model was induced by injecting autologous blood into the cisterna magna without exposing the occipitoaxial ligament.The main modified point was a hole bored by a dental drill at the middle point of the boundary between the parietal bone and the occipital bone,then a catheter was inserted 8 mm to cisterna magna and the autologous blood was injected . Hemorrheological parameters were measured after the model was created.The intrinsic oversxidase method was used to show the microvessel of CA_1 region. The diameter, density ,and the aera of microvessel were measured and ananlyzed by Image-Pro Plus image analysis system. Results The total blood viscosity(?b) and erythroagglutation index(AL) in SAH model group increased significantly,however,the microvesse area and microvesse density in SAH model group decreased obviously. Conclusion The modified model of subarachnoid hemorrhage in rats is reliable and easy to operate on.
