Objective To analyse the variability of spontaneous firing frequencies and firing patterns of a Hippocampal CA1 neuron with the changes of extracellular potassium concentration[K+]0 and ion channel conductance.Methods A 16-compartment cable model of a Hippocampal CA1 neuron was developed based on the Warman model with computer software MATLAB.The dendrites contained no active channels,while five active channels (INa,INap,IDR,IA,IM)were contained in soma.In the model,the calcium currents and potassium currents(ICm,,ICT and IAHP) regulated by calcium concentration were not included.ResultsSimulation results showed that the neuron could generate periodicspontaneous firing activity.The spiking frequency increased with the increasing of[K+]0 and sodium conductance and decreasing of potassium conductance.Spontaneous single neuron activity appeared in singlet or in grouped bursts of two or three spikes.Conclusion The variability of spontaneous firing frequencies and firing patterns of single neuron are relevant to[K+]0 and ion channel conductance.

Objective To investigate the changes of cardiac structure and function in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), analyze the related risk factors of heart failure, and improve the awareness of the effect of diabetes on the heart. Methods Randomly selected 170 cases of T2DM patients As the object of study, 170 cases of non diabetic patients as con-trol group, according to whether complicated with heart failure were divided into heart failure patients and non heart failure patients.Comparison of each group left ventricular posterior wall thickness, left ventricular end diastolic diameter, left ven-tricular end systolic diameter, left ventricular ejection fraction, E/A ratio Differences, analysis of the related risk factors of heart failure by logistic regressive.Results T2DM group left ventricular posterior wall thickness, left ventricular end diastolic diameter and left ventricular end systolic diameter increased , Left ventricular ejection fraction decreased, E/A ratio de-creased, were statistically significant difference compared with the control group (p <0.05).These differences are mainly come from non heart failure patients.Logistic regression showed that factors in patients with diabetes duration, HbA1c, com-pliance and complications of hypertension, coronary heart disease, is a risk factor for heart failure complicated with T2DM (all p<0.01).These may be the risk factor for diabetic patients with heart failure.Conclusion Diabetes can cause cardiac remodeling, systolic and diastolic dysfunction maybe some T2DM patients.They did not show symptoms of heart failure in the clinical, but their Cardiac structure and function are abnormal.We should pay attention to the cardiac function examination and early evaluation, prevention of risk factors, to avoid the occurrence of heart failure.

Objective To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on liver injury in the rats with ob?structive jaundice. Methods Forty?five healthy male Sprague Dawley rats, weighing 250-300 g, aged 8-9 weeks, were divided into 3 groups ( n=15 each) using a random number table: sham operation group ( S group) , obstructive jaundice group ( OJ group) and dexmedetomidine group ( D group) . Obstructive jaun?dice was induced in rats by division and double ligation of the common bile duct in OJ and D groups. Dexmedetomidine 100 μg∕kg was injected intraperitoneally at 72 h after establishment of the model in group D. At 3, 5 and 24 h after administration, blood samples were collected from hearts for determination of the plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and C?reactive protein (CRP) levels. After blood sampling at each time point, the specimens from the external right lobe of the liver were obtained for detection of the expres?sion of Toll?like receptor 4 ( TLR4) mRNA ( by real?time polymerase chain reaction) and TLR4 content ( by enzyme?linked immunosorbent assay) in liver tissues and for pathological examination of liver tissues ( with light microscope) . Results Compared with group S, the plasma ALT and CRP levels were significantly increased at each time point after administration, and the expression of TLR4 mRNA in liver tissues was significantly up?regulated, and TLR4 content in liver tissues was significantly increased in OJ and D groups ( P<0?05) . Compared with group OJ, the plasma ALT and CRP levels were significantly decreased at each time point after administration, and the expression of TLR4 mRNA in liver tissues was significantly down?regulated, and TLR4 content in liver tissues was significantly decreased in group D ( P<0?05) . The degree of damage to liver tissues was significantly attenuated in group D compared with group OJ, and was aggrava?ted in group D compared with group S. Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can reduce liver injury in the rats with obstructive jaundice.

BACKGROUND:Currently,there are three types of visual prosthesis:retinal prosthesis,optic nerve prosthesis and visual cortical prosthesis.Normal optic nerve fiber is the basis to apply visual prosthesis.Extracellular stimulation of myelinated optic nerve fiber is developed from intracellular stimulation,with feasible selection of stimulation locations and low requirements for operation.OBJECTIVE: Using computer to simulate the response of myelinated rat optic nerve fiber to extracellular point current source and to analyze the effect of the position of the point source on the response of the optic nerve fiber.METHODS:The experiment data of ion channels of rat optic nerve fiber and the characteristic of common ion channels were summarized,and the existing Hodgkin-Huxley like optic nerve fiber models were analyzed.The response of the optic nerve fiber model was simulated by computer,and the differences of action potentials of Ranvier node were compared by changing the position of point source.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Simulated models showed that the response of optic nerve is affected by the position of extracellular exciting electrode.The myelinated rat optic nerve fiber is easier to activate when the distance between point source and the Ranvier node center of the optic nerve fiber is short.

The evaluation of glomerular filtration rate is important in the diagnosis,treatment, and prognosis for patients. Although there are different equations widely used and convenient,the accuracy of them on the specific populations, including diabetic patients and the elderlys, still needs further discussion. We recommend using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration ( CKD-EPI) from creatinine and cystatin C in the elderlys. For diabetic patients, however, this equation should be recommended with cautions.
