Anal temperature, coagulation, electrolytes, and blood cell indexes were examined in 2, 24, 72 hours after treated by mild hypothermia;Control group was given equal volume of saline volume at constant temperature .Results The body temperature and coagulation in mild hypothermia group showed no significant difference compared with the control group ( P﹥0.05),but the concentration of K +and Na +in mild hypothermia group were higher than control group (P﹤0.01), the number of WBC in mild hypothermia group was lower than control group ( P﹤0.01或P﹤0.05 ) , and the RBC、HGB、MCH、MCHC in mild hypothermia group were lower than control group transiently (P﹤0.01或P﹤0.05).Conclusion Mild hypothermia induced by pentobarbital sodium affects some of hematological values in mice considerably .

Objective To investigate the combined effects of fluoride and aluminum intoxication on bones and their possible mechanisms.Methods Kunming mice were divided into nine groups according to the factorial experiment design.Different dose of fluoride(NaF,0,50,150 mg/L)and/or aluminum(AlCl3,0,200,600 mg/L)was administered to each group in drinking water.After 24 weeks,the degree of mottled teeth and the histomorphometric parameters,such as the bone trabecula and osteoid areas,the number of osteoblasts and osteoclasts,and pathologic changes in femur were observed.Results Aluminum could also caused mottled teeth(in degree 4).The mottled teeth in the combined groups were more serious than those in fluoride or aluminum alone group.The interaction between fluoride and aluminum existed in the changes of bone trabecula and osteoid areas(F=2.963,3.688,P＜0.05),and not existed in changes of the number of osteoblasts and osteoclasts(F=2.347,0.888,P＞0.05).In high fluoride group,the trabecula and osteoid areas were(50 675.47±22 916.34),(10 733.97 ±3015.55)μm2,but it increased to(75 988.64±13 797.21),(16 402.88±4605.83)μm2 when combined with high aluminum(P＜0.05),and the group of high fluoride +low aluminum increased to(69 277.16±19 837.51),(18 564.79±6362.47)μm2 (P＜0.05),so aluminum antagonized the effects induced by fluoride;the area of bone trabecula of group of high aluminum was(60 718.43 ±17 574.37)μm2,but it increased[(75 988.64±13 797.21),(82 474.94±15 466.66)μm2]when combined with high or low fluoride(P＜0.05),and the combined effects showed a similarity to those in high aluminum group.The prominent osteoporosis with increased osteoid and cartilage tissues,and decreased amount of bony matrix and minerals were the main histopathological changes in the bone.Conclusions Both high aluminum and fluoride intoxication can result in mottled teeth,their combined effects are more serious than the individual effect.The prominent injury of combined fluoride and aluminum intoxication is osteomalacia and osteoporosis.

Objective To explore the interaction characters of fluoride and aluminum by analyzing the changes of bone metabolism in mice. Methods Kunming mice were randomly divided into nine groups according to the factorial experiment, design of two factors and three levels. The animals in different groups were fed with various doses of fluoride(NaF, 0,50,150 mg/L) and/or aluminum(AlCl3, 0,200,600 mg/L) in drinking water for 24 weeks. Serum calcium, phosphor, magnesium, alkaline phosphatase, osteoealine, parathyroid, and urinary calcium and phosphor were tested. Results We found interaetians of fluoride and aluminum with serum calcium, osteoealine and urine calcium(F=17.370,4.399,9.448, P<0.01), but not with serum phosphor, magnesium, alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid or urinary phospbor(F=0.416,0.415,1.921,1.362, 1.630, P 0.05). The serum levels of calcium and osteoealine in high fluoride group were (1.13±0.27)mmol/L and (6.56±5.74)μg/L, respectively, which were lower than in the control group[ (1.82±0.37)mmol/L and (23.45±15.40)laeJL, respectively], but the levels were elevated to (1.76±0.36)mmol/L and (10.57±4.28)μg/L when high fluoride was combined with low aluminum, and further elevated to (2.10±0.51)mmol/L and (15.73±3.15)μg/L when high fluoride was combined with high aluminum. The urinary calcium level in low fluoride group [ (6.24±2.61)retool/retool Cr] was higher than that in the control group[ (3.12±2.04)retool/retool Cr], but it was decreased in low fluoride and aluminum groups[ (0.81±0.44), (1.23± 0.41)mmol/mmoi Cr, respectively]. On the other hand, the levels of serum ealeium and osteocaline in high aluminum group were (1.07±0.68)mmol/L and (7.21±5.22)μg/L, elevated to (1.47±0.18)mmol/L and (10.98±4.35) μg/L when low fluoride was combined wth high aluminum, and further elevated to (2.10±0.51)mmol/L and (15.73± 3.15)μg/L when high fluoride was.combined with high aluminum, respectively, and the combined effects showed the same trend of higher aluminum. Conclusions Aluminum antagonized fluoride-induced effects, whereas fluoride aggravated the effects caused by aluminum in this experimental conditions. The biomarkers of bone formation and mineralization were suppressed in the combined groups, so the combined effects could interfere with the course of bone turnover by inhabiting bone formation and mineralization, leading to the disorder of bone metabolism eventually.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of suberselective uterine arterial embolization for uterine fibroids.Methods Uterine arterial embolization with golyvimylalcohol(PVA) particles or Iodized oil and Gelfoam or Pingyangmycin lipiodol and Gelfoam was performed in 182 patients with uterine fibroids.Results Bilateral and unilateral superselective uterine arterial embolization were performed in 173 cases and 9 cases respectively. 6～28 months (mean 11 months) after the procedure, complete disappearance of tumor(16 cases), an average shinkage of 67% in tumor volume(152 cases) and a mean 42% reduction of uterine volume were obtained in 168 followed-up cases. The clinical symptoms were relieved significantly.The main side effets were hypogastic pain(135/182).Conclusion Superselection uterine arterial embolization is an effective and microinvasive method in treating uterine fibroids.

Objective To compare the infectivity between laboratory adapted human inununodefi- ciency virus(HIV-1) and primary HIV-1 isolates for different mucosal epithelial cell lines. Methods Mu-cosal epithelial cells Caco-2, T-84, HeLa and lymphocyte MT-4 were infected with laboratory adapted HIV-1 SF33 and 2 primary HIV-1 isolates (02010561, 02010141). Culture supernatant and cells were collected respectively on 3-4 days interval after virus inoculation. The former was tested for HIV-1 antigen P24 level and viral load, and the latter was tested for total viral DNA and integrated viral DNA. Results All 3 virus strains could infect MT-4 cells and integrate into their genome. Only HIV-1 SF33 could infect Caco-2 cells but could not integrate into their genomic DNA. Both HIV-1 SF33 and 02010561 infected HeLa cells but only integration of HIV-1 SF33 was detected. All the 3 HIV-1 strains infected T-84 cells but only the integra-tion of HIV-1 SF33 and 02010141 was observed. Conclusion Although laboratory adapted and primary HIV-1 strains are able to infect human mucosal epithelial cell lines, transient or productive infection estab-lished in different mucosal epithelial cells is dependent on the character of cells and virus strains.
