Objiective To observe the morphological changes of rabbits' retina at different time points at which seawater was injected into the vitreous of rabbits. Methods Twenty-five New-Zealand white rabbits were randomly assigned to five groups, as 30 minutes, 2 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours group following the seawater injection in the vitreous. The right eyeball served as experimental eyeball and the left one as control in each group. 0.5ml artificial seawater was injected into the intermedius of rabbits right vitreous. 0.5ml balanced salt sdution was injected into the left vitreous in teh same way. At different time points following the eyeball injury, the morphological changes of retina were observed with light microscope and transmission electron microscope. Results The retina of control eyeballs had clear layers and regular cell shape in retinal structures with conventional staining. For the experimental eyeballs, the ganglion cell layer began to swelling after 30 minutes of seawater injection. The nerve fiber swelled obviously and the mitochondria vesiculated and swelled in the inner segment at 2 hours of seawater injection. The cell population of the inner nuclear layer began to reduce in 6 hours. At 12 hours of seawater injection, the retinal damages included disorganized cell nuclei, decreased cell population in ganglion cells and inner nuclear layer. Mitochondria vesiculated in photoreceptor cells, nuclear membrane shrank and sank inward. The vesiculation on inner and outer segments increased obviously. Conclusions Seawater may cause the morphological changes of rabbits' retina at early stage, and the histological damages become aggravation following the time prolongation. The damages would be unrecoverable 6 to 12 hours after seawater injury.

Objective To observe the effects of insulin pump therapy on type 1 diabetes mellitus children with diabetic keto or diabetic ketoa-cidosis(DK/DKA).Methods Forty-three children with DK/DKA were randomly divided into treatment group(n=26)and control group(n=17).The patients in treatment group were treated with insulin pump,control group were received small amount insulin injravenous injection.The changs of blood sugar,urine ketone bodies,incidence of hypoglycemia and length of stay were observed.Results 1.The effect of decreasing sugar was the same between two groups.2.There was no hypoglycemia events in treatment group.But 2 cases in control group had hypoglycemia.3.There was significant difference of length of stay between two groups(P

AIM: To evaluate effects of Pinaverium Bromide on different segments and layers of colonic smooth muscle in wrap restraint stress (WRS) rats and explore its possible therapeutic mechanism on different types of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). METHODS: Adult SD rats were randomly divided into model group (wrap restraint stress group) and control group. Colonic smooth muscle strips were made from different segments and layers in two groups. The spontaneous contraction activities of colonic longitudinal/circular muscle (LM/CM) strips of rats were observed with organ bath system before and after addition of series concentrations of pinaverium. RESULTS: Pinaverium Bromide caused concentration-dependent inhibition of colonic smooth muscle, the inhibitory effect of pinaverium in model group was significantly stronger than that in control group(proximal colon: 28.54±4.82 vs 7.48±1.65,21.75±1.00 vs 12.56±3.15; distal colon: 15.71±5.27 vs 3.89±1.16, 20.16±3.16 vs 7.56±1.96 )(P<0.05). Compared with that of distal colon, inhibitory effect of pinaverium was significantly higher of proximal colon (P<0.05). For the inhibition of pinaverium, there was no significant difference between LM and CM strips in the same intestinal segments (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Effects of Pinaverium Bromide on different colonic muscle layers and segments in WRS rats is probably related with its therapeutic mechanism on different types of IBS.

Objective To evaluate the clinical performance of CLINITEK Atlas urine dry chemistry analyzer and its supplementary strips,which could be used for other hospitals as reference.Methods Five hundred and one samples of random fresh urine were collected and analyzed by CLINITEK Atlas urine dry chemistry analyzer.10 parameters were reported for each sample,including SG,pH,BLD,LEU,PRO,GLU,KET,UBG,BIL and NIT.According to the medicals standard of the People's Republic of China,General Technical Requirements for Urine Analyzer(YY/T 0475-2004),General Technical Requirements for Chemical Reagent Strips for Urinalysis(YY/T 0478-2004)and physical,Chemical and Microscopic Examination of Urine(WS/T 229-2002),the precision,accuracy,carryover,stability,sensitivity and consistency of each parameter were evaluated.The agreement was assessed between the results for BLD and LEU obtained from CLINITEK Atlas analyzer and phase contrast microscope,and calculated the sensitivity and specificity of CLINITEK Atlas analyzer for BLD and LEU using phase contrast microscope as the gold standard.SG and pH test was performed among 200 specimens by CLINITEK Atlas analyzer,and then compared with the results obtained from MASTER-SUR-NM specific gravity refractometer and pH precision test strips respectively.In addition to SG and pH,the other eight parameters were compared with the results obtained from CLINITEK 500 urine analyzer,and Kappa value and consistency were calculated.Results The accuracy,precision,sensitivity,carryover and stability of 10 parameters could meet all the requirement of standards.SG and pH had good correlation with urine specific gravity refractometer (r =0.9838,P ＜0.001)and pH meter (r =0.8884,P ＜0.001),respectively.Compared with phase contrast microscope,BLD and LEU had coincidence rates of 90.4％ and 90.8％,respectively; Sensitivities were 90.7％ (301/332) and 83.3％ (200/240) ; Specificities were 89.9％ (152/169) and 97.1％ (255/261).Compared with CLINITEK 500,all the parameters,except for SG and pH,had good coincidence rates of ＞ 87.6％.Conclusion The performance of CLINITEK Atlas urine dry chemistry analyzer can meet the clinical requirements of all standards.

Objective To investigate the effect of clinical nursing pathway on mechanical ventilation effect of ARDS patients. Methods 59 ARDS patients with mechanical ventilation from June 2008 to December 2010 were randomly divided into the observation group (30 cases)and the control group (29 cases). The control group used the traditional care model, conventional mechanical ventilation monitoring,treatment and care according to routine measures; the observation group used clinical nursing pathway. The mechanical ventilation time, complication rate of mechanical ventilation, and the gratification level of patients in the two groups of patients were observed. Results The mechanical ventilation time in the observation group was less than the control group, and incidence of complications was lower, and satisfaction degree of patients and their families was better, the difference was statistically significant. Conclusions The clinical nursing pathway can shorten the time of mechanical ventilation, lower incidence of complications of mechanical ventilation, and it improves satisfaction degree of patients and their families.
