Objective To explore the effects and mechanisms of nesfatin-1 injection in the central nucleus of the amygdale(CeA) on exploratory behavior in rats.Methods Fifty rats were divided into 5 groups randomly : nesfatin-1 low dose group, nesfatin-1 high dose group, SHU9119 group, SHU9119+nesfatin-1 low dose group and control group.Drugs were administrated via CeA to examine behavioral changes of rats by elevated plus maze model test and nesfatin-1 mRNA expression in CeA of anxiety rats (10 rats).Results Compared with the control group,anxiety behaviors of rats in nesfatin-1 low dose group and nesfatin-1 high dose group were improved remarkably,showing that the open arm entries were significantly reduced (OE, t=4.16-12.87, P＜0.01), open arm entry proportion was decreased remarkably (OE％, t=2.39-4.39, P＜0.01-0.05), and time proportion in open arm was decreased significantly (OT％, t=5.43-20.55, P＜0.01),which presented dose dependent.Compared with the control group, anxiety degree of rats in nesfatin-1 low dose group and nesfatin-1 high dose group significantly enhanced, showing that the rats head dipping reduced obviously (HD, t=6.97-16.73, P＜0.01) ,while rearing was increased significantly (RE, t=6.60-13.25, P＜0.01) ,which was presented dose dependent.Melanocortin receptor antagonist SHU9119 can partly eliminate nesfatin-1 induce-anxiety (t =2.11-3.08, P＜ 0.01-0.05).Real-time PCR results showed that nesfatin-1 mRNA expression of anxiety model rats was significantly increased (t =3.40-5.58, P＜0.05).Conclusion Amygdala nesfatin-1 can increase anxiety and fear of rats,which may be associated with melanocortin systems.

Objective To summarize nursing experience of digestive tract fistula after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Methods From January 2000 to December 2010,1173 patients received liver transplantation,among whom 61 recipients got digestive tract fistula during early stage after operation.The clinical data and major nursing measures of 61 patients were studied retrospectively. Results The incidence rate of digestive tract fistula after OLT was 5.20％.The incidence rate of bile leakage,gastric fistula,duodenal fistula,jejunal fistula,ileal fistula and transverse colon fistula were 3.90％,0.42％,0.08％,0.34％,0.08％ and 0.34％,respectively.The onset time of digestive tract fistula was from 3 to 24 days post transplantation,and atypical symptoms such as fever,abdominal pain,abdominal distention,weakened enterocinesia and even septic shock were presented.And the rising or descending of white blood cells counts,rising of level of transaminase and total bilirubin in laboratory examination were simultaneously presented.Four patients died of bile leakage,and other seven patients died of intestinal fistula throughout conservative or operative treatment.The rest of 50 were discharged healthily. Conclusions The morbidity of digestive tract fistula after OLT is low,but its mortality rate is high.It is necessary to closely observe patients' condition and confirm diagnosis in early stage,in order to promote the healing of digestive tract fistula after OLT.At the same time,psychological,basic and dietary nursing should be given in order to enhance the survival rate and quality of life of patients.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the pathological mechanism and prevent heart-renal syndrome after heart valve replacement surgery. METHODS: A total of 46 patients were admitted for selective valve replacement, and divide into 3 groups randomly: a control group (Con, n=16), a remote ischemic perconditioning (RIPerC) group (n=15) and a remote ischemic postconditioning (RIPostC) group (n=15). The serum creatinine (SCr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum heme oxygennase-1 (HO-1), serum iron and urinary neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL) level in the 3 groups were compared preoperatively and 6, 12, 24, 48 h after aortic cross-release. RESULTS: Compared with the preoperative level, the SCr, BUN, urinary NGAL, serum iron (6 and 12 h) and serum HO-1 values were significantly increased after the heart valve replacement surgery in the control patients, RIPreC and RIPostC groups (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the serum HO-1 was significantly increased at 6, 12, 24, 48 h after the heart valve replacement surgery in both the RIPerC and RIPostC groups (P<0.05); the SCr, BUN, urinary NGAL and serum iron values were decreased at 6, 12, 24, 48 h after the heart valve replacement surgery in both the RIPerC and RIPostC groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSION Abnormal change in urinary NGAL, serum iron and HO-1 can be used as early warning indicators of acute kidney injury when cardio-renal syndrome occurrs among patients under heart valve replacement surgery. Remote ischemic conditioning plays a preventive role in the occurrence of cardio-renal syndrome and renal protection.

This study was aimed to observe the effect of Compound Shi-Chang-Pu (CSCP) granula on behavior, structure changes of hippocampus with epileptic seizure of mice induced by pentyenetetrazole (PTZ). Sixty Kunming mice, which were half male and half female, were randomly divided into 6 groups, which were the blank control group, animal model, phenytoin (PHT) group, high-dose CSCP (4 000 mg·kg-1) group, middle-dose CSCP (2 000 mg·kg-1) group and low-dose CSCP (1 000 mg·kg-1) groups. The blank group and model group were given intragas-tric administration the same volume of saline, the others animals treated with continuous oral administration of drugs for 7 days. Intraperitoneal injection of PTZ (80 mg·kg-1) was given 1 h after the last medication to establish the a-cute epilepsy model (expect the blank control group). Observation was made on the influence of CSCP on incubation period, behavior degree and times of epileptic seizure among PTZ induced epilepsy mice, the structure changes of mice were detected by the brain tissue HE staining. The results showed that CSCP can improve the degree of seizure attack, prolong the incubation period of mild attack, and decrease Ⅳ and Ⅴ degree epileptic seizure, the PTZ in-duced epilepsy mice could damage the structure of hippocampus, reduce the number of cells, PHT and CSCP could ameliorate these changes. It was concluded that CSCP had certain inhibition on epileptic seizure mice induce by PTZ and ameliorate the damage of hippocampus. The antiepileptic mechanism still requires futher study.

The effects of the pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) of different intensity on bone mineral density (BMD) and biomechanical properties of rabbits' femur had been studied. Twenty-seven female white big ear rabbits were randomly divided into three groups. The magnetic groups were fed in 15 Hz PEMFs, which pulse duration was set to be 5 ms (6 h x d(-1)), the magnetic intensity was 10 x 10(-4) T and the other was 20 x 10(-4) T. Control group were just fed in coils, and the instrument of PEMFs was powered off. After six weeks, by examine BMD and biomechanical properties of the rabbits' femur, the effects of these PEMFs were studied. Compared with control group, the values of BMD, maximum load and structural rigidity of magnetic group were significantly increased (P < 0.05). In addition, there was significant increase in values of BMD and structural rigidity in group 10 x 10(-4) T in comparison with group 20 x 10(-4) T (P < 0.05). PEMFs is effective in improving BMD and biomechanical properties. The experiment indicated that there was evident "window-effect" during the treatment by PEMFs. It is favorable to the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis.
