0.05).Conclusions:1.The acute rise in FFAs level for a short term can inhibit ACTH and cortisol secretion in healthy male adults,but with prolonged FFA elevation this inhibition last less than 24 hours.2.The acute FFAs rise has no influence on ACTH or cortisol circadian rhythm.

Objective To evaluate apelin level in patients with obesity and different glucose tolerances, investigate relevance of apelin with body mass index(BMI), blood lipid and blood glucose. Methods According to different glucose results of oral glucose tolerance test, 120 subjects were divided into three groups: normal glucose tolerance(NGT),impaired glucose tolerance(IGT) and type 2 diabetes(T2DM). All of the subjects were also divided into obese and non-obese subgroups based on their BMI(≥25kg/m~2 or ＜25kg/m~2 ). Plasma apelin levels were compared among groups of NGT, IGT and T2DM. Fasting plasma glucose(FPG)and 2h postprandial plasma glucose (2hPG) after OGTT, lipid profile and BMI were measured. Results Both fasting and 2h postprandial plasma apelin had significant differences in these groups (P<0.05,or P<0.01). The overweight and obese subgroups in the IGT group and diabetes group had higher apelin levels than their counterpart subgroups in the NGT group. BMI, FPO, systolic blood pressure(SBP) were independent influencing factors for apelin (P<0.05 ,or P<0.01). Conclusions Plasma apelin level is related to obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Resiliency is individual's capability to cover difficulties and make a good adaptation.This research reviews the researches on resiliency abroad.It summarizes the practical researches of resiliency from 3 aspects: ① The concept of resiliency;②The structure and intension of resiliency;③The measurement of resiliency.On this basis,it raises some questions in resiliency researches and puts forward the future direction.

In the present study, Mongolian gerbil was used to make delayed neuronal damage (IND) animal model. In 6 different brain regions, 5 kinds of biochemical indexes in the aspect of free radical metabolism were measured at 7 time phases during ischemia and reperfusion. The results showed that, after transient cerebral ischemia and during reperfusion, some unique changes appeared tn hippocampal CA1 sector, which were characterized by the persistent increase of free radical content and persistent decrease of the Mn-SOD activity. The fluctuating changes could be seen in Cu, Zn-SOD activity and lipid peroxide content. There were no significant changes in the brain regions other than CA1 sector. It is concluded that the disturbance of free radical metabolism play a key role in the occur. fence of DND. It was also observed that Aniracetam, Helicid and Nieardipine had some control effects to a certatn extent on the free radical disturbance above in hippocampal CA1 sector of DND animals.

OBJECTIVETo explore the features of various mediastinal lymphadenopathies using computed tomography perfusion (CTP).

METHODSCTP parameters (CTPs) of the selected mediastinal nodes from 59 patients with pathology-proven malignant lymph nodes and of those from 29 patients with clinically diagnosed or pathology-proven inflammatory lymphadenopathies were collected. Patients were divided into subgroups by etiology and phase of primary disease, including different pathological malignant nodes and diverse inflammatory nodes. CTPs were defined as blood flow (BF), blood volume (BV), mean transit time (MTT), permeability (PMB), and time to peak (TTP). Differences of CTPs were compared between malignant and benign nodes, and among subgroups, respectively.

RESULTSIn the mediastinum, no significant differences of CTPs were found between malignant and benign groups (all P>0.05), the same for subgroups of malignant nodes (all P>0.05). Acute lymphadenitis had higher BF and BV than chronic inflammatory, lymphoid tuberculosis, sarcoidosis and malignant nodes. The BF of malignant nodes was markedly slower than that of acute lymphadenitis (P=0.01), but faster than chronic inflammatory nodes (P=0.04) and sarcoidosis (P=0.03), with no significant difference compared with lymphoid tuberculosis. Pneumonia-complicated lymphoid tuberculosis showed the longest MTT while sarcoidosis displayed the shortest MTT, and inflammatory nodes, lymphoid tuberculosis without complicated pneumonia and malignant nodes had moderate MTT.

CONCLUSIONCTPs show promising potential in distinguishing various lymphadenopathies in the mediastinum, but more studies are needed to improve their specificity.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effects of early short time venous-venous hemofiltration(SVVH) on severe acute pancreatitis(SAP) with acute lung injury(ALI).Methods Twenty-there patients with SAP and ALI were treated by routine project,and among them twelve patients accepted SVVH therapy.During the therapy,life sign、PaO2/FiO2 and APACHEII score were registered.Results Compared with control group,the clinical representation and organ function of SVVH group meliorated. PaO2/FiO2 were raised, APACHEII score and death risk were declined.Conclusions The early short time venous-venous hemofiltration(SVVH) on severe acute pancreatitis(SAP) with acute lung injury(ALI) could improve clinical symptom ,protect the organ dysfunction and decline the death risk.

OBJECTIVETo assess the quality of reporting by randomized controlled trial (RCT) related to dental implants in China during 2000 to 2012 by using the revised Jadad scale and consolidated standards of reporting trials (CONSORT) (2010) statement.

METHODSThe following electronic databases were searched: Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, PubMed, and EMBASE. A total of 19 journals of stomatology in China were also searched manually. The qualities of RCT with dental implant published between 2000 and 2012 were assessed using CONSORT (2010) statement and revised Jadad scale.

RESULTSTwenty-eight RCTs related to dental implants were identified. The quality of reporting in 28 articles was low. The mean revised Jadad score was 1.29 ± 0.71 and the CONSORT (2010) score was 9.75 ± 3.60.

CONCLUSIONThe methodological qualities of the included studies on dental implants are generally low, and reporting quality remain unsatisfactory.

Objective To investigate the level change of interleukin-4(IL-4) and IL-12, and their effect on airway inflammation in rat asthma. Methods Rat model of asthma was set up by ovalbumin sensitization. Total cell count and eosinophil count in branchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) were performed, and levels of IL-4 and IL-12 in BALF were measured by ELISA. Results After ovalbumin sensitization, airway occurred obvious inflammation. Eosinophil count began increasing at 1 hour after sensitization, obviously increased at 8 hours, reached a maximum at 24 hours, started declining at 96 hours, and decreased to near normal range at 7 to 14 days. The changes of total cell count had the same tendency as eosinophil count changes. The level of IL-4 in BALF elevated at 1h after sensitization, reached a maximun at 8 to 96 hours, and reduced to near normal level at 7 to 14 days. The changes of IL-12 in BALF had the same tendency as IL-4 level changes. Eosinophil count was positively related with IL-4 level(r=0.74,P0.05). There was a close correlation between IL-4/IL-12 ratio and eosinophil count (r=0.85,P

1 were also high in DDDs(i.e.high dosage).CONCLUSION: The patients undergoing uterine-incision delivery had a high proportion in using antimicrobial drugs yet the choice of drug kinds was reasonable.However,great attention should be paid to the high dosage of some of the antimicrobial drugs.
