The anti-inflammatory of waterand fat-soluble alkoloids of Leon-tice Kiagnanensis (WSALK, FSALK ) were described after sc of WSALK (150, 300 mg/kg ) and FSALK (13, 26mg/kg ) . The increased capillary permeability in abdominal cavity and skin of mice induced respectively by 0.7% HAc and histamin were inhibited abviously. WSALK (75, 150, 300mg/kg, ip ) and FSALK (6.5, 13, 26mg/Kg, ip ) markedly inhibited the ear inflammation induced by xylene in mice, carrageenin-iaduces swelling of the ankle in normal on adrenalecto-mized rats, and carrageenin-induced pleurisy in rats. Both compound also inhibited the granuloma induced by cotton pellet after sc of WSALK 300, 600 mg/kg and FSALK 13, 26 mg/kg qd ? 7d.Both compound decreased the content of PGE in exudate formed after injecting carrageenin into the hind paw of rats. These results suggest that both compounds passesses the anti-inflammatory activity and their actions might be relatied to their inhibiting the synthesis or relase of pro-staglandin E.

Clinical obstetrics practice is a very important process. According to our exploration on it on 7-year-systemmedical students in our hospital for nine years, we think that if you want high quality 7-year-system medical students,five concepts should be emphasized besides traditional basic knowledge, basic theory and basic skill, which are familyplanning and eugenics, loving infants, whole concept, new medical model and renewing knowledge.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of screening for esophageal cancer with survivin colloidal gold immunochromatographic test strip. Methods The serum samples from 158 esophageal cancer patients and 146 healthy individuals were tested with survivin colloidal gold immunoohromatographic test strips. Results 20 nm-diameter colloidal gold solution was prepared and survivin polyclonal antibodies with different concentrations were labeled to the gold particles. It showed that the optimal concentration for labeling was 12 μg/ml. The prepared survivin colloidal gold immunochromatographic strip teat showed positive rates of survivin in esophageal cancer group and control group were 51.9 % (82/158) and 15.1% (22/146) respectively (χ~2 = 45.7, P < 0.05). No statistical differences were observed in age groups (between 42-54 years: 47.1%; between 56-68 years: 40.9%; between 69-81years: 63.9%, χ~2= 1.11, P > 0.05), gender groups (male: 50.4%, female: 58.1%, χ~2= 0.59, P > 0.05) , primary site groups (upper segment: 56.3%, middle segment: 46. 1%, lower segment: 32. 1%, χ~2 = 2.64, P > 0.05), differentiation groups (well-differentiation: 56.3%, moderate differentiation: 43.2%, poor-differentiation: 32.7%,χ2= 1.63, P >0.05)and lymph node metastasis groups (with metastasis:43.3%, without metastasis:43.4%, χ~2 = 0.00, P > 0.05). The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of survivin colloidal gold immunochromatographic test strip was 51.9% (82/158), 84.9% (124/146) and 67.8% (206/304) respectively. Conclusions Survivin colloidal gold immunochromatographic test strip is fast, simple, easy-to-read. It could be used as a valuable tool for screening of high-risk patients with esophageal cancer.

OBJECTIVEThis study aims to observe and compare the influences of the casting alloy post and cores on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

METHODSSix casting alloy post and sores were fabricated for the experimental groups, and zirconia post and core served as the control. The seven types of post and cores were of the same size and shape. Each post and core was orally fastened to a volunteer and then imaged with sequences of T1-weighted spin echo imaging (SE-T1WI), T2-weighted turbo spin-echo imaging (TSE-T2WI), and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI).

RESULTSCobalt chromium alloy post and core generated severe artifacts, whereas gold palladium alloy post and core generated no obvious artifacts, and no difference was observed between the zirconia and the gold palladium alloy post and cores (P > 0.05). The pure titanium alloy post and core produced mild artifacts. The post and cores of the titanium, nickel-cadmium, and gold platinum alloys generated moderate artifacts with no significant differences (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONDifferent metal post and cores have different influences on MRI. With the exception of that generated by cobalt chromium alloy, the artifact generated by the single-alloy post and core does not influence the image of the normal head and neck.

The changed process of bioenergy and the effects of electrode interfering on penicillin-induced epileptic brains in epileptic seizures rats were investigated. Fifty Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into 4 groups, i. e. normal saline control group (group A), penicillin model group (group B), metal electrode interfere group (group C) and insulated electrode interfere group (group D). The epileptogenic potential and the expressions of the beta subunit of-ATP synthase( ATP5B) in hippocampal neurons were measured. The epileptogenic foucus potential and expressions of ATP5B in hippocampus neurons showed that the trend increased at first and decreased implantation of later, and the implantation of metal electrodes decreased the epileptogenic foucus potential at corresponding time point, but had no effect on the expressions of ATP5B. The change of epileptogenic focus potential was reduced by implantation of metal electrode, possibly due to the alteration of corrosponding bioenergy metabolism which had participated in the process of epileptic seizure.
