Journal of Practical Stomatology 2000;0(05):-
Objective:To observe the inhibition of Chinese gallnut on bacteria in plaque biofilms by the use of artificial mouth.Methods:Water extract of Chinese Gallnut was prepared and liquid media two-fold dilution method was used to determine the minimal inhibition concentration(MIC)of the drug on S.mutans,A.viscosus,S.sanguis and S.oralis.Individual bacteria plaque biofilms in artificial mouth were created.The inhibition of Chinese gallnut on the bacteria in plaque biofilms was studied by colony counting.Results:In bacteria suspension gallnut water extract inhibited the growth of the four kinds of bacteria.The MIC of the extract on S.mutans,A.viscous and S.sanguis was 64 mg/ml,that on S.oralis 8 mg/ml.The plaque biofilms formed by the four kinds of bacteria could be inhibited by 2 mg/ml-128 mg/ml of the extract dose-dependently.At the highest tested conentration(128 mg/ml)the gallnut water extract could not completely clear up the colonyforming unite(CFU)of the becteria.Conclusion:Chinese gallnut water extract can inhibit the growth of bacteria in suspension and in plaque biofilms,the bacteria in biofilms may have stronger resistance to the extract.

Objective To compare the effects of chlorpromazine,olanzapine and ziprasidone on cognitive function of patients with chronic schizophrenia.Methods A total of 120 patients with chronic schizophrenia were randomly divided into chlorpromazine group(n =38),olanzapine group(n =41) and ziprasidone group(n =41).The patients were subjected to the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale(BPRS),Wisconsin Card Sorting Test(WCST),Personal and Social Function of Scale (PSP) and Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-RC) assessment respectively,before and after treatment for 12 weeks.Results After treatment for 12 weeks,the score of BPRS significantly decreased in three groups compared with that before treatment [F (5,41) =6.49,P < 0.05].After treatment for 12 weeks,the results of WCST [F (5,47) =18.30,P < 0.05],PSP [F (5,47) =10.02,P < 0.05] and WAIS-RC [F(5,47) =6.74,P < 0.05] test in ziprasidone and olanzapine group were better than that of chlorpromazine group.Conclusion Chlorpromazine,olanzapine and ziprasidone could improve the cognitive function and mental syndrome of patients with chronic schizophrenia.In addition,the effect of ziprasidone and olanzapine was better than chlorpromazine.

Objective To investigate the effects of pyrroloquinoline quinone(PQQ) on the hippocampal neurons of aged rats induced by D-galactose(D-gal).Methods D-gal was used to induce the model of aging rat,PQQ was administered into rat lateral intracerebroventricle.After 50 days the metamorphosis of hippocampal neurons was observed by H-E and Nissl's staining.The apoptosis rate of hippocampus was tested by flow cytometry.The contents of free radical and C-FOS protern were measured.Results Compared with the control group,the size of the neurosoma was slightly changed,the optical density of Nissl's was decreased,the content of free radical and the apoptosis rate increased markedly in D-gal group.After PQQ injection with D-gal,the size of neurosoma and the optical density of Nissl's were markedly increased,the content of free radical and the apoptosis rate of hippocampus did not change.PQQ improved the expression of C-FOS protern.Conclusion PQQ can slow down the aging progress of hippocamal neurons induced by D-gal.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between plasma level of cortistatin(CST) and coronary heart disease(CHD) and the factors that influence the level of CST.Methods: Plasma levels of CST were measured using ELISA method.The clinical data and the levels of CST of 40 healthy subjects and 39 CHD patients before and 1 d after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) were compared.And the factors that influenced the CST level were analyzed.Results: The CST levels of CHD group before or 1 d after PCI were significantly higher than those of the control group(1.97?1.12 and 2.01?0.77 vs 1.21?0.27,P0.05);There was no correlation between CST levels and fasting blood glucose(FBG),high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hsCRP),left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),severity of lesions of coronary arteries or history of hypertension;The levels of triglyceride(TG) and total cholesterol(TCHOL) negatively correlated with CST levels(?=-2.594,P

Objective To investigate the methods and effects of applying choledochoscope in drainage of retroperitoneal abscess.Methods Eighteen cases of retroperitoneal abscess,who underwent open surgical debridement and drainage or PCD but the drainage was ineffective,were selected for use of choledochoscope to irrigate and debride the abscess repeatedly.Results All of the 18 patients had effective choledoscopic treatment;in 17 patients the abscess healed and drainage catheter was successfully removed;but in one patient,who developed pancreatic fistula,was cured by internal drainage operation performed 6 months later.Conclusions Use of choledochoscope as an adjunctive treatment after drainage operation of retroperitoneal abscess is simple,safe,and effective.

Objective To explore the effects of willed movement on neurological performance and the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) pathway in rats following focal cerebral ischemia.Methods Reversible middle cerebral artery occlusion was induced in 144 male SpragueDawley rats using intraluminal sutures,and they were randomly divided into a control group,a swimming exercise group,an environment modification group,and a willed movement group.The observation time points were at 7,15 and 30 days after reperfusion.A behavioral test was performed to evaluate any neurological deficiency.Reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and immunofluorescence were used to detect the ERK and CREB responses in terms of mRNA and phosphorylated ERK (pERK) and phosphorylated CREB (pCREB) protein in the peri-ischemic brain tissue.Results The climbing frequency of the willed movement group was significantly higher than that of the environment modification group.Three days after reperfusion the neurological deficit scores of all groups began to decrease,and that of the willed movement group had decreased significantly more than in the other three groups at all time points.ERK/CREB mRNA and pERK and pCREB protein expression were dramatically up-regulated in the willed movement group at 7,15 and 30 days after reperfusion,significantly more than in the other three groups.Conclusions Willed movement may promote motor recovery by up-regulating and activating the ERK/CREB pathway following focal cerebral ischemia.

Objective:To study the efficacy of drugs combined with rehabilitation training in the treatment of schizophrenia and the influence on social function. Methods:Totally 160 cases of schizophrene were divided into the control group and the observation group according to the admission time sequence with 80 ones in each. The control group was treated with medicines, and the observation group was given labor skills training, life skills training and health education additionally. The treatment course was 8 weeks. Before and after the treatment, brief psychiatric rating scale ( BPRS) and inpatient rehabilitation efficacy rating scale ( IPROS) were used to evaluate the clinical efficacy and social function of the two groups, and the score changes and curative effect in the two groups were compared. Results:After the treatment, BPRS and IPROS in the two groups were significantly decreased from the fourth week ( P<0. 05), and the reduction degree in the observation group was significantly larger than that in the control group (P<0. 05). There was no statistically significant difference in BPRS and IPROS of efficacy between the two groups (P>0. 05), while BPRS and IPROS of ef-fective rate in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0. 05). Conclusion:Drugs combined with rehabilitation training in the treatment of schizophrenia patients can improve mental symptoms, social life ability and cognitive function, which is better than drug treatment alone.
