Objective To explore feasibility of monitoring the extremital arterial blood supply and venous blood circulation in rabbits with replanted limb by Na~(99m)TcO_4 trace imaging(TTI). Methods TTI was performed on 6 normal control rabbits and 30 rabbits with replanted limb at 24～36h after replantation. The radioactivity uptake ratio of replanted limb/normal limb(T/NT) was analyzed. Imaging was classified into ?,Ⅰ,Ⅱand Ⅲ scales according to the accumulation amount of extremital radionuclide. Then an exploratory operation was performed on each rabbit. Results Rabbits with ?,Ⅰ,Ⅱand Ⅳ scales had 8,6,15(including 6 normal control rabbits),and 7 animals, respectively, and their T/NT were 0.178?0.072, 0.461?0.046, 0.816?0.074, 1.14?0.086(P1.05) may serve as a qualitative and semiquantitative diagnostic standard for venous blood circulation block. Conclusion TTI was feasible in monitoring the extremital arterial blood supply and venous blood circulation in patients with replanted limb(finger).

Objective To understand the level of vitamin A (VA)in children in Beijing city.Methods 292 children aged from 0~14 years old visited the health clinic from November 2012 to March 2013 in Beijing city were surveyed by a question-naire,and medical history,physical examination,a blood sample was collected from each child,and serum VA was measured with reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC).Results ①The mean serum VA concentration for the 292 children was (1.09 ± 0.29)μmol/L.②There were 5.8% (17/292)of children affected with subclinical VAD (SVAD),and 38.0% (107/292)had suspected SVAD (SSVAD).③Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that parents were unware of health implications of VA,low VA intake and recurrent respiratory infection were associated with SVAD or SSVAD.Conclusion Low VA status remains a nutritional problem in children in Beij ing city.Multiple factors need to be considered together for them,such as parents were unware of health implications of VA,low VA intake and re-current respiratory infection.

Objective To observe the anti-inflammation effect of antidromic electronic stimulation of rat dorsal roots. Methods Cross-excitation between adjacent primary afferent fibers and subcutaneous injection of 2% FM were adopted here as two inflammatory models. The firing rate and mechanical threshold of single units after cross-excitation were collected. The phosphorylated cAMP response element binding protein (p-CREB) level in spinal cord induced by formalin was visualized with immunohistology. Results Antidromic electronic stimulation (ADES) of dorsal roots could significantly inhibit the p-CREB over expression to FM injected in the contralateral hindpaw, and the increase in firing rate and mechanical threshold induced by cross-excitation were also inhibited by the ADES. Conclusion Antidromic electronic stimulation of the dorsal root may produce a systemic anti-inflamma-tion capacity.

Objective To investigate the morphological regularity of the thoracic pedicle screw in 4 to 12 years old children by the digital technology,and to provide the theoreticl basis for thoracic pedicle screw fixation in children.Methods A total of 60 healthy children aged from 4 to 12 years old with computed tomography(CT) data of thoracic spine were divided into three groups by age,each group 20 cases.Then they were examined by MIMICS software and the parameters of pedicle width(PW),pedicle height(PH),the length of screw path(SL),e angle and f angle were measured.Results The pedicle width,pedicle height,the SL of the pedicle generally showed a rising trend with advancing age.There were significant differences in the PW,PH and LS between the three group(P<0.05).The PW decreased and then increased.The PH and the LS increased with the vertebral order increased.There was no significant difference in e angle and f angle between the three groups(P>0.05).E angle of the pedicle generally showed a decreasing trend with increasing vertebral order,and e angle of T11 to T12 showed negative angle.The f angle showed a wavy descending trend.Conclusion There was significant difference in correlation parameters of thoracic pedicle with increasing age in healthy children,which indicates that the pedicle screw fixation for the kind of children should be performed based on 'the Principle of individualization' to improve the success rate of surgery.

Objective To investigate the relationship of plasma homocysteine with the genotype distribution of MTHFR and MTRR among Chinese Han women in Xiangtan. Methods MTHFR C677T, A1298C and MTRR A66G geno?typing was analyzed to detect the distribution of gene polymorphisms among 1 701 women from Xiangtan city then the data were compared with the rest of the Han women in Zibo, Zhengzhou, Yantai, Zhenjiang, Songzi, Huizhou, Qionghai. Plasma Hcy levels from 110 patients were measured and analyzed the correlation with gene polymorphisms. Results The frequency of MTHFR C677T genotype and allele frequencies in Xiangtan is 12.6%which is higher than Huizhou (10.9%) and Qionghai (6.1%) but lower than Zibo (43.6%), Zhengzhou (36.8%), Yantai (32.2%), Zhenjiang (21.8%) with statistically significant dif?ference (P<0.05). There is no significant different in MTHFR C677T between Xiangtan and Songzi. The frequency of MTH?FR A1298C genotype and allele frequencies in Xiangtan is 4.8%which is lower than Qionghai(7.1%)but higher than Zibo (1.4%),Zhengzhou(2.4%), Yantai(1.8%), Zhenjiang(3.5%)and Songzi(2.6%)with statistically significant difference. The frenquency of MTRR A66G genotype and allele frequencies in Xiangtan is 6.8%which is higher than Zibo (4.8%) but lower than Qionghai (9.3%) with statistically signifcant difference. Plasma Hcy concentration correlate with MTHFR C677T, Hcy concentration in TT population is higher than that in CT and CC population(μmol/L:8.52±2.01 vs 5.94±1.47 vs 5.71± 0.18);Plasma Hcy concentration also correlate with MTHFR A1298C and Hcy concentration in CC population is higher than AA and AC population(μmol/L:9.83 ± 2.26 vs 6.35 ± 2.13 vs 5.55 ± 1.75);Plasma Hcy concentration does not correlate with MTRR A66G. Conclusion The gene polymorphism of MTHFR C677T, A1298C and MTRR A66G among the Han women in Xiangtan was statistically different from other selected regions of China. Mutation in MTHFR C 677T and A1298C were associated with elevated plasma levels of Hcy.

Objective To study the changes of endothelin,nitric oxide and vascular endothelial growth factor level in patients with type 2 diabetic retinopathy (DR). Methods Eighty diabetes patients (53 with diabetic retinopathy and 27 without). Another 30 healthy volunteers were recruited as control. Plasma ET and VEGF levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. NO levels were measured by nitrate reductase method. Results Plasma levels of ET were higher in patients with type 2 diabetes with DR (DR)(80. 68 ± 13.57) mg/L than (65. 33 ± 11.24) mg/L, (45.25 ±9. 06) mg/L, in control and in type 2 diabetes patients without DR (NDR) (Ps ＜ 0, 01 ). Plasna levels of NO in DR group (69. 82 ± 14. 89) μmol/L were higher than (37. 85 ±-9. 11 ) μmol'L, in control group,but lower than (77.52 ±± 18.56) μmol/L in NDR group (Ps ＜ 0. 05 ). Plasma levels of VEGF ( 110. 52 ± 25.65 ) μg/L in DR were significantly increased compared with control (82.42 ± 18. 47 ) μg/L, and NDR(97.55 ±25.61)μg/L, (Ps ＜0.05).Conclusion ET, NO and VEGF may be involved in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetic retinopathy.
