Objective To explore the differences of cultivation and differentiation between cortical neural stem cells(C-NSCs) and mesencephalic neural stem cells(M-NSCs). Methods We dissociated embryonic cortex and ventral mesencephalon respectively,and single cell suspensions were achieved by trypsin digestion and mechanical dissociation in sterile condition.These cells were planted into DMEM/F12 culture medium with B27,bFCF,and then were passaged by mechanical methods and induced to differentiation in DMEM/F12 medium with 10%FBS(without growth factors).For examining the features of C-NSCs and M-NSCs,reverse phasecontrast microscopy,immunocytochemical techniques were applied to detect nestin,NSE,GFAP antigens and the specific antigen(TH) of neurons differentiated from the two kinds of NSCs.We observed and compared the difference of the two kinds of NSCs. Results The NSCs existed both in cortex and ventral mesencephalon of embryonic mice,which expressed nestin and possessed the ability of self-renewing and multipotent, but the density of NSCs in cortex was higher than that in ventral mesencephalon.There were some TH positive cells differentiated from M-NSCs but none came from C-NSCs.Conclusion The proliferative activity of C-NSCs is higher than that of M-NSCs,but more number M-NSCs differentiated into dopaminergic neurons in serum medium.

Objective To know the preventive effects of using hammock firmness sheets for pa-tients with pressure ulcer.Methods Divided 98 patients into the application group (31 cases), the treatment group(30 cases) and the control group(37 cases) according to themselves condition.Hammock firmness sheets was used in the application group, while the routine preventive method of pressure ulcer was used in the control group.To know the preventive effects of pressure ulcer betweent the two groups.The patients in the treatment group was patients had pressure ulcer, hammock firmness sheets combined with local massage were used for them, observed the treatment effects for them.Results The condi-tion of preventive effect of pressure ulcer in the application group was better than those of in the control group.The cure rate of pres sure ulcer in the treatment group was 90%.Conclusions The hammock firmness sheets can prevent pressure ulcer effectively.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of laparoscopic hernioplasty for inguinal hernia in aged males.Method Forty cases of inguinal hernia in aged males were treated with laparoscopic hernioplasty(group L),while other 46 cases were treated with traditional inguinal hernioplasty(group S).Results To compare with group S,the time be in hospital and the time leave off the bed were significantly shorter in group L(P＜0.01 or＜0.05),but the mean operation time were longer and the operation expenses Was higher in group L(P＜0.05).Followed up for 2-47 months,there were no recurrence in two groups.Conclusions Laparoscopic hernioplasty for inguinal hernia in aged males can shorten the hospitalization time,quicken postoperative recovery.The comphcation is little and the wound ache is light.Along with the further improvement of laparoseopic technique and the amelioration of laparoscopic instrument.the opera-tion time will further shorten,the expenses also will descend.It will be a ideal way for the therapy of inguinal hernia in aged males.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic time window and the dose response effects of epirubicin on the expression of c-FLIP in breast cancer.Methods MCF-7and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells were divided into two groups: epirubicin groups were treated with 4.0,2.0,1.0,0.5 and 0.25mg/L of epirubicin,and control groups were treated with 0.9% sodium chloride solution at the same dose.After treatment for 24,48 and 72 h,the incubated cells were collected for the measurement of c-FLIP by RT-PCR,and for examination of percent of apoptosis cells with flow cytometry.ResultsA dose-time-dependent pattern was observed.The expression of c-FLIP in MCF-7and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines declined gradually as the epirubicin concentration increased and treatment time was prolonged.Percentage of apoptosis breast cancer cells increased gradually as the epirubicin concentration was increased and treatment time was prolonged,and percentage of apoptosis cells was the highest when breast cancer cells were treated with 2 mg/L epirubicin for 72 h.ConclusionsEpirubicin can promote apoptosis of breast cancer cells by inhibiting the expression of c-FLIP,and its inhibitory effect is most pronounced when breast cancer cells are treated with 2 mg/L epirubicin for 72 h.

Objective To explore the risk factors of lung cancer in rural area. Methods A 1∶1 matched case_control study was conducted in 106 individuals in Heilongjiang province. Results The amount of passive smoking (OR:2.48,95%CI:1.51～4.08),history of mental scar (OR:4.63,95%CI:1.51～14.15), smoking from Kang (OR:1.69,95%CI:1.10～2.59), smoking indexes (OR:1.75,95%CI:1.10～2.79) and chronic bronchitis (OR:4.67,95%CI:1.12～19.49) had a closely correlation with lung cancer in rural area.Conclusions Lung cancer might be caused by multiple factors synergetically.The main countermeasures for controlling lung cancer were to give up smoking and to improve the conditions of heatable brick bed and heating method.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of chloramphenicol and dexamethasone sodium phosphate in ear drops by HPLC METHODS:Chloramphenicol and dexamethasone sodium phosphate were separated with a mobile phase of methanol-phosphate buffer solution(0 34% KH2PO4 solution)(60∶40,v/v,1 0ml/min)on Kromasil C8 column and detected at 240nm RESULTS:Good linearity appeared in the concentration of chloramphenicol 100～500?g/ml,r=0 9 999,the recovery was 98 5%～100 8%,RSD≤1 5%;and good linearity showed in the concentration of dexamethasone sodium phosphate 16～80?g/ml,r=0 9 990,the recovery was 98 8%～100 6%,RSD≤2 0% CONCLUSION:This method can simultaneously detect both ingredients in the ear drops

Objective To explore the efficiency of writing admissions records with the electronic medical record system. Methods 16 interns with the same educational backgrounds and residency periods were randomized into 2 groups and wrote admissions records respectively with the electronic system and by hand, the traditional method. 1 week later, the same records were again written by the two groups, now each using the other's method. The time for completing each part of the records was noted down in real time across the entire process. The time taken by the interns to complete the records was changed into marks of speed, the assessments of the records by experts were changed into marks of quality, and composite marks resulted from the two after weighting. Statistical testing was done with the two methods. Results In terms of time, the average total time taken by the electronic and traditional groups was respectively 19. 85 m and 39. 49 m; in terms of quality, the electronic group got higher marks in scores for present, past, personal, and family histories and physical examination and in the overall score; in terms of general efficiency, the electronic group got average marks of 91. 13 while the traditional group got average marks of 65. 72, the difference being statistically significant (P

Objective To investigate the expression pattern of Placental growth factor (PlGF) and regulatory effects of interleukin-6 (IL-6)on PlGF expression in the primary cultured trophoblast cells. Methods Cytotrophoblast cells werecollected by trypsin-collagenase digestion and Percoll gradient centrifugation for primary culture. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) were resorted to demonstrate the expression pattern of PlGF mRNA in trophoblast cells cultured in vitro. The effects of IL-6 with different concentration(100,10,1 and 0.1 ?g/L) and duration (6,12,24 and 48 h) on PlGF expression were observed. Results The 185 bp and 248 bp bands of PlGF were showed by RT-PCR. PlGF expression correlated with IL-6. PlGF began to increase at 6 h, and reached the climax at 12 h when recultured with 100 ?g/L IL-6. Conclusions PlGF expression has time and dose dependance on IL-6. It may play an important role in early pregnancy.
