Objective To observe the effect of Minocycline on RP process of retinal pigmentarydegeneration rd mice[C3H/HeN(Pde6brd-/rd-)]. Methods 40 rd mice were divided into ten groupsrandomly:5 experimental groups and 5 control groups,4 rd mice in each group.The experimental groupreceived intraperitoneal injection of minocycline 22.5mg/kg while the control group received saline 10ml/k2 every day from the posmatal day 1(P1).Mice were sacrificed at P1,P7,P14,P21 and P28respectively.Eyeballs were enucleated to carry out histology observation and apoptosis cell detection.Meanwhile,to statistically analyze the number of retinal photoreceptor cells,the thickness of outer nuclearlayer(ONL)and the number of apoptosis cells. Results (1)Photoreceptor cell began to apoptosis onP7,peaked on P14,and totally disappeared on P28.(2)No statistically significant differences were foundof the number of photoreceptor cells and the thickness of ONL on P7 between the experimental group andthe control group.(3)The number of photoreceptor cells and the thickness of ONL in the experimentalwere more than that in the control group at P14,P21,P28 respectively,the differences are statisticallysignificant(P＜0.05).(4)The apoptotic cells on ONL were less in the experimental group than that in thecontrol group on P7 and P14 respectively,the difference are statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions Minocycline appears to protect photoreceptor cell from apoptosis in the early stage of theretinal degeneration mice,but it may not completely prevent RP from occurrence.

Objective:To study the effect of naoxintong capsules combined with nerve growth factor on the serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6),matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and S100B of patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.Methods:88 patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage who were treated in our hospital from August 2015 to July 2016 were selected and randomly divided into the observation group and the control group The patients in the control group were treated with nerve growth factor,while the patients in the observation group were treated with naoxintong capsules combined with nerve growth factor.Then the clinical efficacy,GCS,GOS score,serum levels ofIL-6,MMP-9 and S100B were observed and compared between the two groups.Results:After treatment,the total effective rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that the control group (P＜0.05).After treatment,the GCS and GOS scores of the two groups were significantly higher than before,and the GCS and GOS of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (P＜0.05).After treatment,the serum levels of IL-6,MMP-9 and S100B in the two groups were significantly lower than before,and the observation group were lower than those of the control group (P＜0.05).There was adverse reactions in the two groups.Conclusion:Naoxintong capsule combined with nerve growth factor can reduce the serum levels of IL-6,MMP-9 and S100B in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage,with obvious clinical curative effect and high safety.

Objective To establish a benign esophageal stricture model and observe the effect of 32P radioactive isotopes on benign esophageal stricture scarring with intracavitary irradiation so as to provide experimental evidence for inhibiting scar hyperplasia and preventing esophageal restenosis after endoscopic dilation for benign esophageal stricture.Methods Benign esophageal stricture models were established in 18 healthy adult rabbits by annular incision and anastomosis.Then the rabbits were randomly divided into control group,hormone group and irradiation group,with six rabbits in each group.On day 2 after surgery,we measured inner diameter of the anastomotic stoma;then the control group received saline intervention,the hormone group was given dexamethasone,and the irradiation group was given 32P radioactive isotopes.The rabbits were observed for two weeks for their general condition and weight.After the intervention,we measured inner diameter of the anastomotic stoma.Liver functions (ALT and AST) were tested again before modeling and after intervention.Then the rabbits were put to death and had tissue in the esophageal stricture area removed for pathological examination and esophageal HE staining.We determined hydroxyproline (HYP) content of esophageal tissue around the anastomotic stoma.Restlts Benign esophageal stricture model was established successfully.After 2 weeks,the rabbits' appetite was obviously diminished in control group and relatively poor in hormone group;obviously improved in irradiation group.The rabbits' weight increased in radiation group compared with the other two groups (P＜0.05).The esophageal inner diameter in irradiation group widened obviously compared with the other two groups (P ＜ 0.05).In irradiation group,the number of fibroblasts decreased obviously,collagen fiber and granulation tissue were not obvious;HYP content was lower than that in the other two groups,and was close to that in a normal esophagus (P＞0.05).ALT and AST did not differ before and after intervention in all groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion ① We can establish benign esophageal stricture model successfully through the surgery.② 32Pradioactive isotopes radiation therapy can be used to prevent early scar formation in esophageal benign stricture,and is superior to dexamethasone therapy.

BACKGROUND:It is controversial whether anterior approach alone, or combined anterior and posterior approaches were used for high level and multiple segments of severe ossification of cervical posterior longitudinal ligament.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the difference of anterior approach versus combined anterior and posterior approaches for the treatment of high level and multiple segments of severe ossification of cervical posterior longitudinal ligament.
METHODS:A total of 21 cases of high level and multiple segments of severe ossification of cervical posterior longitudinal ligament were included in this study. There were 9 males, aged 56-72 years, and 12 females, aged 58-70 years. We used anterior decompression and titanium mesh bone graft fusion in 11 cases which lesion located between C2-5 vertebra, and ossification excision, combined anterior (titanium mesh plate and screw) and posterior (lateral mass screw) approaches in 10 cases which between C3-7 vertebra. Japanese Orthopaedic Association score system was used to evaluate the results. The excellent and good rate and improvement rate were calculated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The excellent and good rate was 90%and improvement rate was 82%in 10 cases using combined anterior and posterior approaches. The excellent and good rate was 73%and improvement rate was 73%in 11 cases using anterior treatment alone. Significant differences in the excellent and good rate and improvement rate were detected between the two groups (P<0.05). These suggested that combined anterior and posterior approaches for high level and multiple segments of severe ossification of cervical posterior longitudinal ligament is a better operative procedure.

BACKGROUND:Few cases of acute cerebral embolism were treated by mechanical thrombectomy al over the world. However, there were few cases currently treated by mechanical thrombectomy using Penumbra system. It is an unclear understanding of effects on regional cerebral blood vessels using this kind of surgery.
OBJECTIVE:To describe effects of numerical simulation on regional cerebral blood vessels of an acute cerebral embolism patient by mechanical embolectomy using Penumbra system.
METHODS:A 77-year-old woman suffering from acute cerebral embolism of left middle cerebral artery was selected. Various raw data were col ected in emergency of digital subtraction angiography, then mechanical thrombectomy using Penumbra system was carried out successful y. After these raw data were processed into dimensional numerical models of two kinds of embolectomy methods (“suction bolt method from near to far”and“suction bolt method from far to near”), and then finite element analysis was carried out.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Model establishment and finite element analysis were successful y conducted. Compared with“suction bolt method from near to far”,“suction bolt method from far to near”models had smal er velocity of flow in catheter and smal er wal shear stress of thrombus (P<0.01), and had larger wal shear stress of blood vessel wal , deformation of blood vessel wal (P<0.01) and deformation of thrombus (P<0.05). Results suggested that finite element analysis of mechanical embolectomy using Penumbra system can help physicians to involve in a clear understanding of their impacts on cerebral blood vessels of patients. As a research method, it is worth to continue to explore in the future.
