Objective To investigate the effect of ketamine on hippocampal uncoupling protein 2 (UCP 2) expression after forebrain ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats and the mechanism of protective effect of ketamine on brain. Method Forty-five male Wistar rats weighing 250～300 g were randomly divided into 3 groups, with 15 animals in each group. Forebrain I/R was estabhshed by occlusion of bilaleral carotid artery combined with hy-potemion,EFG in a sustained low rate of 7 Hz, 30～40 μVθ rhythm was the success signs of forebrain I/R. Con-trol group (C) :sham operation was performed; I/R group (Ⅰ): bilateral common carotid arteries were clamped for lOmin combined with hypotension [MAP:(40±5) mmHg] induced by exsanguinations, then saline (1 mg/kg) was injected into the lateral cerebral ventricle using microsyringe; ketamine group (K):ketamine (1 mg/kg) was injected into the lateral cerebral ventricle using microsyringe after I/R. The animals were decapitated, the brain was immediately removed,and the hippocampal tissues were dissociated at 6 h after reperfusion. The cerebral I/R injury was observed with light microscope, the levels of UCP 2 mRNA expression in hippocampus were detected by using semi-quantitative RT-PCR technique (n=7), coronal sections including hippocampal tissue were obtained for detection of UCP 2 protein expression by immuno-histochemistry (IH) method (n=8). The RT-PCRR and IH data were expressed as the mean±SD, the statistical signiticance was determined by one-way ANOVA. Results The UCP 2 mRNA expression was (1.06±0.02) in group Ⅰ and (1.18±0.06)in group K increased significantly compared with that in group C(0.91±0.02) (P<0.05), there were more UCP2 mRNA expression in group K increased than that in group Ⅰ(P<0.05). The expression of UCP 2 protein was (31.56±4.01) in group Ⅰ and (44.61±4.96) in group K, increased significantly compared with that in group C (17.91±5.49) (P<0.05),there were more UCP 2 protein expression in group K than that in group Ⅰ (P<0.05). Conclusions Ketamine can attenuate the cerebral I/R injury in rats, the underlying mechanism may be related to the up-regulartion of the expression of hippocampal UCP 2 mRNA and UCP 2 protein.

Objective To study the sonographic features of solid-pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas(SPTP) and to explore the value of ultrasound in the dignosis,differential dignosis and type of SPTP.Methods B-mode ultrasonography and color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI) of nine cases of SPTP confirmed by clinical and pathology were enrolled in the study and some cases were compared with the findings of computed tomography (CT).Results On B-mode ultrasound images,tumors showed solid,solid and cystic alternative distributions or cystic structures,presenting as round or oval shape,well-defined margins.Of these nine lesions,one was mainly composed of solid part,seven showed solid tumor with cystic component inside and one showed cystic tumor.All tumors were encapsulated.The encapsulation was completive in seven cases,incontinuous in one case and interruptive in one case.In CDFI,blood flow was found in five cases, three cases were I-brand,one case was II-brand,one case was III-brand.The peak systolic velocity ranged from 8.6 cm/s to 33.2 cm/s,three cases were less than 20 cm/s.Resistance index(RI) varied from 0.38 to 0.56 and three cases were lower than 0.5.According to the sonographic features of SPTP,combined with related reviews about the tumor,those masses were classified into three types as homogeneous solid,solid and cystic alternative distributions and cystic tumor.Conclusions The B-mode ultrasound and CDFI characteristic findings might be of great value in dignosis and differential dignosis of SPTP.

Objective To investigate the effects of propofol on Ca2+ -induced mitochondrial dysfunction after focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion(IR) injury in rats. Methods Eighty-four male Wistar ratsweighing 250-300 g were randomly divided into 4 groups (n= 21 each):group Ⅰ sham operation (group S); group Ⅱ IR; group Ⅲ CaCl2 and group Ⅳ propofol (group P). In group Ⅱ - Ⅳ focal cerebral IR was induced by 2 h middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) followed by 24 h reperfusion. Neurological function was assessed at 2 h of ischemia and scored (0= no deficit, 5 = death). The animals were decapitated at the end of 24 h reperfusion. Left parietal and frontal cortex were immediately isolated and mitochondria were extracted. In group Ⅲ and Ⅳ mitochondria were incubated with 200 μmol/L CaCl2 for 5 min at 37 ℃, and were pretreated with propofol 200 μmol/L in group Ⅳ for 2 min before CaCl2. Morphological changes of mitochondria were examined by electron microscopy. Mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) activity was detected by ultraviolet visible absorption spectroscopy.Results Mitochondrial ultrastructure was normal in group Ⅰ . Significant mitochondrial swelling, disrupted cristae and membrane rupture were observed in group Ⅲ. Propofol significantly attenuated the Ca2+ -induced changes. The MPTP activity was significantly increased in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ as compared with group Ⅰ but were significantly decreased in group Ⅳ (propofol group). The decrease in MPTP activity was attenuated in group Ⅳ as compared with group Ⅲ. Conclusion Propofol can improve mitochondrial dysfunction induced by Ca2+ after focal cerebral IR by inhibiting MPTP opening in rats.

Objective To investigate the protective role of bone marrow-derived stem cells (BMDSCs) in progressive glomerulosclerosis rats,and to observe whether BMDSCs promote glomenlar repair and regeneration.Methods Progressive glomerulosclerosis was induced in enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) bone marrow chimeric rats by injecting with anti-Thy1.1 antibody,followed by unilateral nephrectomy.Subsequently,these rats were treated with either BMDSCs infusion (treatment group,10 rats) or phosphate-buffered saline (untreated group,1O rats).Renal function and histological alterations were examined at week 12 after Thy1.1 antibody injection.Repair and regeneration of glomerular endothelial cells was detected by immunofluorescence.Results Only 3 rats survived in untreated group,other 7 rats died at week 2,7,9,11 after antibody injection.In treatment group,9 rats survived at week 12,only 1rat died at week 10.The BUN and Scr were significantly lower in treatment group as compared to untreated group [BUN(43.55±29.06) vs (76.58±66.19) mmol/L,Scr (138.79±75.14) vs (233.38±164.43) μmol/L].Proteinuria was not significantly different between two groups at day 3,7,14 and 28,while it was significantly decreased at day 42,56 and 84 in treatment group compared with untreated group.Light microscopy showed that there was severe diffuse mesangial cell proliferation,mesangial matrix expansion and glomerulosclerosis in untreated group,and such changes were ameliorated in treatment group.The mesangial expansion index and glomerular sclerosis index in untreated group was significantly higher than those in treatment group.More BMDCs were recruited into the glomeruli and differentiated into glomerular endothelial cells in treatment group as compared with untreated group.Double immunofluorescence stain also demonstrated that BMDSCs infusion promoted glomerular capillary repair and regeneration.Conclusion BMDSCs infusion can improve renal function and histological changes,and promote the repair and regeneration of glomerular capillary.

Objective To investigate the effects of desflurane on the delayed rectifier potassium current (Ik ) in acutely dissociated rat parietal cortical neurons. Methods Wistar rats between 10- and 14-day old of both sexes were used. The parietal cortical neurons were acutely dissociated enzymatically. The extracellular fluid saturated with 0.3,0.6 and 0.9 mmol/L desflurane was added to the culture dish, then the effects of different concentrations of desflurane on Ik were investigated by using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique in acutely dissociated rat parietal cortical neurons. Results IK was inhibited by desflurane in a concentration-dependent manner ( P ＜0.01). The V1/2 of the activation and inactivation curves and the slop factor had no change after giving 0.6 mmol/L desflurane (P ＞ 0.05). Conclusion Desflurane inhibits delayed rectifier potassium channels of parietal cortical neurons of rats in a concentration-dependent manner, and has no effect on the activation and inactivation of delayed rectifier potassium channels, indicating that the change in the excitability of the channel is not involved in the mechanism of inhibitory effect of desflurane, and the other reasons may be involved in the mechanism.

Aim To investigate the effect of curcumin against high-fat-diet induced C57BL/6J mice bone changes and the correlation between the expression of cathepsin K and curcumin.Methods Curcumin treated C57BL/6J mice had been on high fat diet for 12 weeks.The HE, Alizarin red S staining and Safranin O/fast green staining of femur were employed to evaluate bone microstructure, bone metabolism and bone development.The expressions of cathepsin K were assessed by Western blot and immunohistochemical staining.Results Histopathological results showed that curcumin could improve the destruction of trabecular bone structure, cartilage development and bone calcification.Biomechanical results proved that curcumin could improve the bone strength of the type 2 diabetic mice induced by high fat.The results of immunohistochemistry and Western blot assay indicated that curcumin could significantly inhibit the expression of cathepsin K in bone tissues of mice.Conclusion Curcumin can increase bone strength, improve bone microstructure, and enhance the degree of bone calcification, which may be achieved by inhibiting the expression of cathepsin K.

Objective:To identify the current situation of contract signing for family physician services in Luohu District, Shenzhen, and to explore the associated factors with contract signing and access to services.Methods:Using the WeChat official account of"People′s Hospital of Luohu", an online survey was conducted to investigate the status of family physician′s contract services for residents in Luohu District from May 19th to 25th, 2019. A total of 14 487 valid responses were received. Chi-square test and Logistic regression models were used to analyze the contract signing of family physician services and the related factors.Results:8 560 (59.09%) of the participants had signed with a family physician, and 12 696 of them had learnt about the service before. The awareness rate of family doctor services was 87.64%. The contract signing rate of those unemployed, who living or working in Luohu less than 5 years, who living alone, having no Shenzhen medical insurance, or having not heard of family physicians signing services were less than 50%. The signing rate was positively correlated with the awareness of family physician contract service, as well as the possibility of accepting signed medical examination, traditional Chinese medicine services and health information. Only 9.70% of the contractors received health services information.Conclusions:The contract Signing rates and awareness rate of family physicians among young and middle-aged residents in Luohu District are relatively high. However, access to contract services varies considerably. The signing rate and accepted services are mainly affected by job, length of residence in Shenzhen, type of medical insurance, and understanding of contract.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and perioperative treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in department of thoracic surgery,and to guide the clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods From January 2013 to December 2016,patients with newly diagnosed NSCLC treated in the thoracic surgical department of Lanzhou University Second Hospital were reviewed retrospectively. The patients were divided into the COPD group and non-COPD group. The clinical data,including the incidence and clinical characteristics of COPD in non-small-cell lung cancer,pulmonary complications after surgery,COPD diagnosis and perioperative pulmonary rehabilitation were analyzed retrospectively. Results A total of 726 NSCLC patients were reviewed,six hundred and seventy-five cases who took the full lung function test were included in the study,of which 95 cases received bronchial diastolic test,86 cases were accorded with COPD diagnosis and were included in incorporated COPD group,and 589 cases were in the non- incorporated COPD group. The proportion of men (69 cases,80. 2%,χ2 = 24. 032), age ≥65 (51 cases,59. 3%,χ2 = 6. 784),smoking history (55cases,64. 0%,χ2 = 29. 474) and a large number of smokers (43 cases,50. 0%,χ2 = 5. 802) and lung squamous cell carcinoma(47 cases,54. 7%,χ2 = 6. 241) in the incorporated COPD group were higher than those in differences were statistically significant (P<0. 05); the incidence of pulmonary complications after radical resection of lung cancer in the incorporated COPD group was 23. 9% (16/ 67),which was significantly higher than that in the unincorporated COPD group(13. 7% (78/568)) (χ2 = 4. 894,P<0. 05). The incidence of pulmonary complications in the lung rehabilitation group was 13. 5% ( 5/37) , lower than that of the non-lung rehabilitation group ( 36. 7% ( 11/30 ) ) (χ2 = 4. 886, P<0. 05);Among the 86 cases (12. 7%) of incorporated COPD,only 6 cases (8. 9 ‰) were diagnosed with COPD at the time of admission, and 23 cases ( 3. 4%) at discharge. No COPD guidelines were given. Conclusion NSCLC often combined wtith COPD,especially in males,elders (≥65 years old) ,smokers, squamous cell carcinoma patients. At present,the diagnosis and treatment of co-morbidity of COPD is seriously inadequate,which needs to be paid much attention to by the thoracic surgeons,in order to improve the diagnosis and treatment of COPD,and improve the prognosis of the patients with NSCLC and COPD.
