Objective To study the effects and current mechanism of low concentration of lidocaine on evoked-bursting (EB) firing of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons in rat model of chronic compression (CCD) of DRG . Methods Twenty-four SD rats were divided into normal control group (n=12) and CCD model group (n=12). CCD group was treated with chronic oppression on L4 and L5 DRG with L shape bar. Normal control group received no treatment. In vivo intracellu?lar recording was used to record the incidence of EB and the effect of lidocaine on subthreshold membrane potential oscilla?tion (SMPO). Patch clamp recording was used to record the effect of lidocaine on persistent sodium current (INaP). Results The incidence of EB increased in CCD group( 45.97%, 57/124), which was significantly different when compared with nor?mal group (χ2=26.810, P<0.01). The magnitude of SMPO, INaP and EB were inhibited in a reversible way by lidocaine (50μmol/L). Conclusion The low concentration of lidocaine might play an analgesic effect in peripheral nervous system by se?lectively inhibiting INap, which participates in SMPO formation.

Objective:To analyze risk factors for the rupture of basilar tip aneurysms (BTA) using morphological parameters assessed on CTA.Methods:The clinical data and CTA imaging characteristics of 62 patients with BTA from March 2016 to November 2020 in Huanhu Hospital of Tianjin were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into un-rupture ( n=44) and rupture ( n=18) groups according to whether the BTA ruptured. The morphological parameters of aneurysms were measured and recorded. The number, shape and orientation of aneurysms were analyzed by χ 2 test between the two groups. The length (H max), height (H p), neck width (N D), aspect ratio (AR), size ratio (SR), angle of aneurysms (AA), flow angle (FA), basilar vessel angle (BVA), the angle between the proximal long axis of bilateral posterior cerebral artery P1 segment (P1-P1 angle), the angle between the proximal long axis of bilateral superior cerebellar arteries and bifurcation angle (the sum of the angle between the basilar artery and the bilateral posterior cerebral arteries) were analyzed by independent-sample t test between the two groups. On the basis of univariate analysis, logistic regression was used to identify the independent risk factors for BTA rupture. ROC curve analysis was further performed. Results:BTA with irregular shape was more likely to break (χ 2=5.412, P<0.05). The H max[(4.18±2.11)mm], N D [(3.06±1.75)mm], P1-P1 angle (148°±18°) in the rupture group were smaller than those in the un-rupture group [(6.38±2.21)mm, (5.20±1.59)mm, 178°±25°], with statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). While AR (1.19±0.13), BVA (82°±11°), and bifurcation angle (212°±18°) in the rupture group were larger than those in the un-rupture group (1.05±0.18, 70°±10°, 181°±27°), with statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). The logistic regression analysis showed that the shape of aneurysms (β=4.878, OR=11.418, P=0.019), BVA (β=0.165, OR=1.177, P=0.043), and P1-P1 angle (β=-0.223, OR=1.080, P=0.029) were independent risk factors for BTA rupture. The ROC curve analysis showed that the cut-off value of BVA and P1-P1 angle to predict the BTA rupture were 76.7° and 158.5°, and area under curve (AUC) were 0.79 and 0.86, respectively. The AUC of combined BVA with P1-P1 angle was 0.89. Conclusion:The shape of aneurysms, BVA and P1-P1 angle are independent risk factors for BTA rupture. BTA are prone to rupture when the shape of aneurysm is irregular, BVA>76.7 ° and P1-P1 angle<158.5 °.

AIM:ToinvestigatetheroleofSH2-domain-containingprotein-tyrosinephosphatase-1(SHP-1) lentivirus in atherosclerotic mice .METHODS:ApoE knock-out mice were randomly assigned to 3 groups:control group , GFP transfection group and SHP-1 transfection group .All mice were placed with carotid collars on the right common carotid arteries near its bifurcation , following feeding with high-fat diet for 8 weeks and then transfected with GFP blank vector or SHP-1 lentivirus ( SHP-1-LV) .The fluorescence density of the plaques , body weight , the levels of plasma total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) were determined at 1st, 2nd, and 6th week after lentivirus transfection.Furthermore, the mRNA and protein expression of SHP-1, interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), matrix metalloproteinase ( MMP)-2 and MMP-9 were analyzed by real-time PCR and Western blot .Additionally , pathological analysis of the plaques was also performed by HE and oil red O staining .RESULTS:The fluorescence of the plaques was observed at 1st, 2nd, and 6th week after lentivirus transfection , with a highest density at 2nd week.The body weight and the levels of TC and TG in the mice were not influenced by lentivirus transfection .Moreover, SHP-1-LV transfection significantly upregulated the expression of SHP-1 at mRNA and protein levels, but inhibited the expression of IL-6, TNF-α, MMP-2 and MMP-9.In addition, SHP-1-LV transfection also decreased the plaque size ratio and lipid content in right common carotid arteries . CONCLUSION:SHP-1 overexpression accelerates the regression of atherosclerotic plaque , thus emerging SHP-1 as a tar-get for prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis .

Objective To summarize our experience in the diagnosis and management of popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES). Methods This is a retrospective study on 10 patients (13 limbs)who were admitted for symptoms of claudication and the diagnosis of popliteal entrapment was established either with angiography,computed tomographic angiography,magnetic resonance angiogram or during the operation in recent 7 years (2002-2009).All patients were treated surgically. Results The mean age at the time of presentation was (25 ±7) years old (range,17-41 years).Claudication was the most frequent presenting symptom (12 limbs).The surgical procedures consisted of simple musculotendinous dissociation in 1 limb,thrombectomy with balloon angioplasty in 1 limb,musculotendinous dissociation plus thromboendarterectomy with autogenous saphenous vein (ASV)patch angioplasty in 2 limbs,ASV graft interposition or bypass in 6 limbs and graft interposition or bypass in 3 limbs.At a median follow-up of (35 ±27) months (range,2 months-7 years),there were no intraoperative or long-term postoperative complications and all the patients were cured. Conclusions PAES is an unusual but important cause of peripheral vascular insufficiency especially in young patients.A combined approach is necessary for diagnosis.Popliteal artery release alone or with vein bypass or reconstruction is the treatment of choice.

CONCLUSION It's showed that PLC can significantly inhibit platelet aggregation and ultrastructural changes.

Objective: To study the effect of docetaxet (DOC) combined with 4-AP on human breast can-cer MCF-7 cells and to explore whether 4-AP could strengthen the effect of docetaxel. Methods: MTT assays were performed to investigate the effect of docetaxel, 4-AP and the combination of them on the proliferation of MCF-7 cells. Flow cytometry was employed to detect cell cycles and cell apoptosis after the cells were stained by PI alone or by Annexin-V and PI. Results: Docetaxel could significantly inhibit the proliferation of MCF-7 cells in a dose- and time- dependent manner. 4-AP could inhibit the proliferation of MCF-7 cells and the inhibitory rates were 11.9%±1.7%, 42.1%±3.2%, and 44.2%±1.6% at 24h, 48h and 72h after adding 4-AP. Moreover 4-AP (5mmol/L) could strengthen the effect of docetaxel. 4-AP (25μmol/L) could increase the effect of Docetaxel. Docetaxel at 5μmol/L could significantly increase the percentage of cells at G_2/M (53.58%± 1.44% vs. 8.83%±0.44%, P<0.01) and decrease the percentage of cells at G_0/G_1 (11.48%±0.14% vs. 63.89%±0.98%, P<0.01), indicating that docetaxel blocked MCF-7 cells at G_2/M phase. 4-AP at 5mmol/L could in-crease the percentage of MCF-7 cells at G_0/G_1 and decrease the percentage of cells at G_2/M (0.42%±0.17% vs. 8.83%±0.44%, P<0.05). Docetaxel could significantly increase late apoptosis and death of MCF-7 cells af-ter treatment over 24h (from 6.97%±0.75% to 20.77%±0.75%, P<0.05). Docetaxel combined with 4-AP could increase early apoptosis rate from 4.60%±0.91% to 12.20%±0.82% (P<0.05) and could increase late apopto-sis rate and death rate from 4.60%±0.91% to 12.20%±0.82% (P<0.05). Conclusion: Both docetaxel and 4-AP can inhibit the proliferation of MCF-7 cells. Docetaxel can increase the percentage of cells at G_2/M phase and 4-AP can increase the percentage of cells at G_0/G_1 phase. 4-AP could strengthen the inhibitory effect of docetaxel on the proliferation of MCF-7 cells through inducing cell apoptosis.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate theefficacy of the pedicled nasoseptal flap for anterior skull base reconstruction after endoscopic resection of sinonasal malignancies involving the skull base.METHODS From September 2008 to May 2016, 31 patients with sinonasal malignancies involving the skull base were treated via transnasal endoscopic surgery and then two type mucoperiosteal flap of contralateral nasal septum were used to repair the anterior skull base defect according to the actual situation, one is a flap supplied by the posterior nasal septal artery and the other is supplied by the anterior and posterior ethmoidal arteries.RESULTS Successful anterior skull base reconstruction was obtained in all 31 cases.
