OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the long-term toxicity of Ginkgolide B injection on Beagle dogs,and to provide safety evidences for clinical experiment.METHODS: A total of 24 Beagle dogs were equally assigned to receive placebo(control group,n=6) or Ginkgolide B injection at high,medium,and low doses(80,20,and 5 mg?kg-1) by iv gtt for 6 consecutive days per week for up to 90 days.There were 6 Beagle dogs(male: female =1∶1) in each group.All the laboratory indicators were monitored and the recovery of the Beagle dogs was observed.RESULTS: During medication,vomiting was noted in one dog in high dose group,and the clotting time in high and medium dose groups was prolonged obviously.During the recovery stage,one dog in high dose group was strong positive in urinary protein test.No significant drug-associated toxic reactions were noted judging from Beagle dogs' body weight,appetite,temperature,ECG,hematology,blood biochemical analysis,ophthalmology test,marrow test,urine routine test,histopathologic examination etc.CONCLUSION: The non-toxic dose of Ginkgolide B injection for Beagle dogs was 20 mg?kg-1.

Objective To explore the safety and efficacy of loop ileostomy and Hartmann operation in gerontal patients with obstructive carcinoma of sigmoid and high rectum. Methods sixty-two gerontal patients with obstructive carcinoma of sigmoid and high rectum from April 2008 to April 2013 were randomly divided into loop ileostomy group and Hartmann group.The operation time , length of stay and postoperative complications in the two groups were analyzed. Results The time of absolute diet in loop ileostomy group was shorter than that in Hartmann group in Stage I operation (P < 0.05). The time of operation, absolute diet, and length of stay in loop ileostomy group were shorter than that in Hartmann group in Stage II operation (P < 0.05). Conclusion The application of loop iloostomy in gerontal patients with obstructive carcinoma of sigmoid and high rectum was safe and effective.

Objective To study anxiety and depression among the abused children and their association with psychological resilience.Methods Self-rated questionnaires including the screen questionnaire of child abuse(SQCA),the screen for child anxiety related emotional disorder(SCARED),self-rating depression scale for children(DSRSC),Resilience Scale and General information questionnaire were applied to 447 children.Results (1) The score and rating of SCARED and DSRSC in the group of abused children(respectively(20.39 ± 12.79),(11.65 ± 5.44) and 40.26％,27.27％) was higher than that in control group(respectively(14.74 ± 10.91),(10.18 ± 4.75) and 22.43％,12.97％),the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01).(2) The score of psychological resilience of abused children in group of anxiety and depression (respectively (80.13 ± 12.82),(74.67 ± 10.71)) was lower than that in control group (respectively (93.91 ± 16.08),(93.50 ± 15.00)),the difference was statistically significant(P＜ 0.01).(3) Emotion control was a significantly negative predictor of anxiety among the abused children.Social assistance,family support and emotion control was a significantly negative predictor of depression among the abused children.Conclusion The abused children have more anxiety and depression problems.psychological resilience is an important predictive variable for anxiety and depression among the abused children.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of internal sphincter deletions on postoperative fecal incontinence in rectal cancer patients after intersphincteric resection (ISR). MethodsSeventy one cases of rectal tumour were respectively treated by low anterior resection (group A, intact internal sphincter),partial ISR (group B,1/3 internal sphincter deletion),subtotal ISR (group C,2/3 internal sphincter deletion) and total ISR (group D,total internal sphincter deletion).Anorectal manometry and Vaizey scoring system were used to trace dynamic changes of fecal incontinence in the four groups in one year follow up. Data were analyzed with repeated-measures analysis of variance and multivariate analysis of variance. ResultsIn all cases the length of postoperative anal high-pressure zone shortened by groups.With time the length of high-pressure zone increased slightly.By the end of postoperative 12 months,there were still significant differences between groups( F =41.873,P =0.000).The maximum resting pressure of anal canal significantly reduced in all groups.By the end of postoperative 12 months,it almost restored to preoperative level in group A,while in group B and C it was about 2/3 of the preoperative level; and 1/3 of the preoperative level in group D.Vaizey score at postoperative 10 days,increased in all groups.In group B and C the score was on continuous decrease until the end of postoperative 12 months(P =0.158) it was close to that in group A.While in group D it was only 13.7 ±3.2 by the end of postoperative 12 months.Multiple regression analysis showed that by the end of postoperative 12 month,the maximum resting pressure of anal canal and postoperative anal high-pressure zone length were significantly and negatively related with the subjective Vaizey score of fecal incontinence ( t =- 4.802,P =0.000 ; t =- 2.011,P =0.048 ).ConclusionsIn patients of ultra-low rectal cancer undergoing intersphincteric resection,fecal incontinence severity indicator vaizey score as evaluated by the end of postoperative 12 months was associated with the maximum resting pressure of anal canal and anal high-pressure zone length.In addition,postoperative fecal incontinence severity carries reversible dynamic changes, and with time, most patients could restore satisfactory stool control function.

Objective To investigate the best operative approach in the treatment of myasthenia gravis (MG) by comparing surgical effects of median sternotomy, trans-sternal surgery and video-assisted thoracoscope surgery (VATS). Methods One hundred and nine patients who received thymectomy for MG were divided into median sternotomy group,trans-sternal group and VATS group according to the way of operative incision. The clinical features, such as operative time, operative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume and drainage time, postoperative hospitalization time, postoperative pulmonary infection, incisional infection, MG crisis, postoperative chronic pain and upper limb's movement disorder were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate the effect of the surgery. Results The operative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume and drainage time,and incisional infection in VATS group [(77.5 ± 18.0) ml, ( 100.8 ± 11.8) ml,( 2.3 ± 0.5 ) d, 0 ] were superior to those in trans-sternal group[ (97.4 ± 14.3 ) ml, ( 175.8 ± 18.3 ) ml, ( 3.1 ±0.7 ) d, 6.2% ( 2/32 ) ] and median stemotomy group [ ( 130.1 ± 24.0) ml, ( 379.0 ± 45.6 ) ml, (4.2 ± 0.6) d,13.8% (9/65)] (P ＜0.05),and median sternotomy group was the worst. The incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection, MG crisis, upper limb's movement disorder and postoperative hospitalization time in VATS group were superior to those in trans-sternal group and median sternotomy group (P ＜0.05).Conclusions Three mini-incision surgical approaches are safe, feasible and effective. VATS is more advantageous and is worth popularizing in large and medium-sized hospitals. Trans-sternal surgery is the better choice for primary hospitals without advanced technology and equipments.

Objective To investigate the effects of laminar shear stress ( LSS) on the proliferation and apoptosis of mesenchymal stem cells ( MSCs) . Methods The influences of laminar shear stress ( the physiological levels) on MSCs were studied. DNA synthesis and cell cycle were measured,to detect the cellular proliferation. The apoptosis-related gene expression ( Bcl-2/Bax) was examined to determine the effect of LSS. Results The percentage of MSCs’ proliferation rate was reduced by the fluid shear stress. Furthermore,it was detected that LSS exerted a potent suppression effect on MSC apoptosis. Conclusion These data revealed a critical role of LSS in maintaining the quies-cence of MSCs.

There was a significant difference in curative effect between the two groups (P＜0.01). Conclusion: Needle-knife lysis has a marked effect on calcanodynia.

Recent study demonstrated that insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1) could have benefits to improve the learning memory.Exercise can increase IGF-1 level in hippocampus.IGF-1 may mediate exercise inducing learning memory;one of the possible mechanism is that the IGF-1 and brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) has a common regulatory capacity over calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase Ⅱ(CAMKⅡ),mitogen-activated protein kinase Ⅱ(MAPKⅡ) and synapsin-1,and the convergence of multiple signaling pathways mediate synaptic plasticity and improve learning memory.

In order to adapt to the requirements of the modern clinical laboratory to medical laboratory technology personnel operation ability,our hospital has modified professional microbiology experiment course to modular teaching from the traditional teaching mode.In the process of teaching experiment,the experiment course and clinical practice class are arranged,and the experiment course of microbiology is divided into five modules:basic skills,application,comprehensive training,extension,and clinical practice module.Basic skills module focuses on the foundation that students learn to observe the microbial morphology and master the basic operation technology,at the same time,cultivates the students' sterile ideas and biological safety;Application module pays attention to the detection of various types of bacteria,lets the student have as many times of trying as possible,battle-hardened;Comprehensive training module emphasizes students' ability of analyzing and resolving problems;Extension module guides students actively to make diffusing thinking and comprehensive analysis of problems;The final clinical practice module that combines theory and practice,further consolidates the basic operation skills,cultivates students' comprehensive ability,improves students' the independent working ability and professional thinking and habits.Five modules link up with each other closely and have progressive layers of the process.In sum,modular teaching motivates the students' interest in learning,solves the problem of students' insufficient operating ability,improves the teaching effect and provides a reform method for improving the quality of microbiological test experiment.
