As natural components of the environment,air and water,geomagnetic field plays an important role,which is closely related to growth and evolution for living organisms. Being off earth magnetic field,biological effects would be fetched out. Settled in the Moon and long-term interplanetary space flight,human being and other biological objects would experience extremely low magnetic fields. In addition,weaker magnetic fields exist in some artificial environment,such as artificial magnetic shielding experimental room,submarine etc. Since 1970s,biological effects of hypomagnetic environment and zero-magnetic environment have continuously studied. This paper will briefly review the research progress about biological effects of hypomagnetic environment..

Objective To discuss the illness mechanism and the reason of defective energy of the stomach and intestines with acute panereatitis.Method 43 cases of acute pancreatitis was studied which had the stomach and intestinal insufficiency to determine lesion degree of the stomach and intestines acording to the change of abdomen signs.Results The data found that the patient of light acute pancreatitis had light abdominal distention,cirumscribed abdominal tenderness and rebounding pain,weaken gurgling sound;most advanced acute pancreatitis had severe abdominal distention,abdominal tenderness and rebounding pain,almost no gurgling sound.Conclusion Abdominal sign could be a indicator to determine patient's condition of acute pancreatitis and a standard to diagnose acute pancreatitis.

BACKGROUND:Studies demonstrated that,the probability of middle and distal end of femur bone fatigue or fracture reaches maximum when the moving loads increase or under an impact load.OBJECTIVE:To analyze the stress-strain distribution,principle stress vectors and displacements of femur during gait.METHODS:The contour curves of femur and muscles attached to femur were extracted slice by slice based on the serial CT data from a healthy male volunteer,which were used to build musculoskeletal system models.And the straight-line muscle models of the lower extremities were constructed to evaluate muscles forces and joints forces by using a multi-objective optimization method based on gait analysis.The finite element models of femur during gait were built by taking muscle forces and joint forces as boundary conditions in ANSYS 10.0 to obtain the stress-strain distribution and displacements.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The maximal displacement occurred on the femur head,and the maximal stress occurred in the middle and distal end of femur during the whole gait.There exists bigger tensile stress in the location of the femur neck and middle and distal end of corpus ossis femoris.The result validates the fact that femur fracture often happens at the middle and below of femur stem from the viewpoint of biomechanics.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of video-assisted thoracoscopic resection of thymoma for myasthenia gravis.Methods Between July 2005 and February 2006,10 patients with thymoma were enrolled in this study.After double lumen intubation,video-assisted thoracoscopic resection of the thymus and thymoma was performed on the patients under total intravenous anesthesia.The largest tumor in this series was 6 cm ? 4 cm ? 3 cm.For a three-trocar technique,three incisions with a length of 1,3,or 1.5 cm were made respectively at the fifth intercostal space on the midaxillary line,fourth intercostal space on the middle between the anterior axillary line and midclavicular line,and sixth intercostal space on the anterior axillary line.During the operation,to expose the ipsilateral thymus and part of the contralateral thymus,the mediastinal pleura was cut along the internal thoracic artery,and superior vena cava or phrenic nerve.The thymus was then separated,and the thymic vein was dissected along the brachiocephalic vein and ligated.All the patients received radiotherapy after the operation with a dose of 4000 cGy.Results The operation time ranged from 70 to 130 minutes(mean,110 minutes)and the blood loss was less than 100 ml in all the cases.After the operation,7 patients presented Masaoka stage Ⅰ and 3 were at stage Ⅱ.No patient died or had cardiopulmonary complications or myasthenia crisis.The symptoms of myasthenia gravis were relieved in 1 week.The patients were followed up for 8 to 15 months(mean 13.0 months).During the period,none of them developed recurrence,metastasis,or aggravation of the myasthenia gravis.Conclusions It is feasible to resect stage Ⅰ to Ⅱ thymoma by video-assisted thoracoscopy.The procedure is minimal invasive with a few postoperative complications and good cosmetic outcomes.

Objective To explore the most suitable chemostatic condition and a method of cell-counting in reconstituted basement membrane invasion experiment in vitro. Method Reconstituted basement membrane invasion experiment was employed, and conditioned medium, fibronectin (FN), and a combination of conditioned medium and FN were respectively used as chemoattractants was placed in the lower compartment of the chamber. After the filters were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE), two kinds of cell-counting methods were employed. One was random cell-counting to count the cells in 5 fields infiltrated in the different areas of the filter membrane under 40?magnification, and the other was whole cell-counting of the infiltrating cells on the whole filter membrane with 4? magnification and image analysis system. Results The number of infiltrating cells in the presence of the chemoattractants was much larger than that of the control group. The number of infiltrating cells of the conditioned medium group was larger than that of FN group. The numbers of infiltrating cells in the combination of conditioned medium and FN groups were significantly larger than those of conditioned medium and FN alone groups. The accuracy of method of random cell-counting under 40? magnification was poorer than that of whole cell-counting with image analysis system. Conclusion Chemoattractants exert strong effect on the tumor cells invasion, and different chemoattractants show different chemotactic abilities. By using image analysis system to count all the infiltrative cells of the whole filter membrane is an objective and accurate cell-counting method.

Objective To investigate effects of ginkgo biloba extract(GBE) and tanshinoneⅡ A preventative administration against cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury in gerbils.Methods Cerebral iscthemia and reperfu- sion injury were made by 10 minutes'occlusion of bilateral carotid arteries followed by 24 hours' reperfusion in ger- bils.GBE,tanshinone Ⅱ A,nimodipine or GBE plus tanshinone Ⅱ A were administrated intragastrically 3 days prior to and at the day of ischemia and reperfusion.Effects of experimental agents on mortality,stroke index,brain body index,water content in brain hemisphere,level of SOD activity and MDA in cerebral tissue were measured,and pathological changes of cortex and hippoearnpal CA1 sector were observed.Results GBE 48 mg/kg and tanshinone Ⅱ A 25mg/kg preventive administration could significantly reduce the stroke index,brain body index,and water in brain hemisphere,together with a reduced mortality of cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injuried gerbils.The two a- gents could also significantly improve the activity of SOD,reduce the level of MDA in cerebral tissue and the injury in cortex and hippocampal CA1 sector.Moreover,combined treatment of these two agents demonstrated more signifi- cant effects.Conclusion GBE,tanshinone Ⅱ A and combined therapy of these two agents may protect cerebral func- tion from ischemia and reperfusion injury through reducing the cerebral edema and attenuating the injury of oxygen free radicals.

BACKGROUND:Olfactory ensheathing cells can promote the repair of the central nervous system. Composite engineering materials prepared by the combination of chitosan and col agen have been widely used in the construction of tissue-engineered nerve conduits.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the repair effect of olfactory ensheathing cells and chitosan in the treatment of sciatic nerve injury in rats.
METHODS:Rat models of sciatic nerve injury were prepared. Olfactory ensheathing cells combined with chitosan scaffold were used to connect the injured sciatic nerve. In the chitosan scaffold group, only the chitosan scaffold was utilized. In the control group, no treatment was done.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 1-4 weeks fol owing surgery, sciatic functional index and motion evoked potential were monitored and histological examination was performed. Sciatic functional index was significantly improved in the olfactory ensheathing cells+chitosan scaffold group (P<0.05). Motion evoked potential was significantly lower in the olfactory ensheathing cells+chitosan scaffold group compared with other groups (P<0.001). Histological examinations showed new nerve fibers and rare inflammatory reaction in the olfactory ensheathing cells+chitosan scaffold group. These findings indicate that autologous olfactory ensheathing cells combined with chitosan scaffold exerts good repair effects on treatment of sciatic nerve injury, and can be considered as an ideal tissue engineering material.
