Objective To study the effect of hypothyroidism on oxidative stress status in developing rat brain and to further explore the mechanism of impaired brain development caused by hypothyroidism. Methods Perinatal hypothyroidism was induced by administering propylthiouracil(PTU) solution to the dams by gavage.The oxidative stress indexes were measured in brain homogenate of normal and hypothyroid pups which were sacrificed on the 21st d after birth. Results As compared to the control,the following indexes were found to be increased in the hypothyroid group: protein carbonyl contents,thiobarbital acid reactive substances,reduced glutathione,total antioxidative capacity,activities of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase(P0.05). Conclusion Hypothyroidism during rat brain development may cause oxidative stress,which may be related to the brain damage caused by hypothyroidism.

Objective To study the efficacy and safety of treating Parkinson disease(PD) by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS). Methods 45 patients with PD were randomly divided into two groups. 30 patients received rTMS therapy and 15 patients were given sham stimulation. Stimuli were delivered at an intensity of 110% of resting threshold (RT) and a frequency of 1Hz once a day for 10 days. All the patients were followed-up at 1 month and 3 months after treatment. The efficacy was assessed by UPDRS score, grooved pegboard test, timed motor test and 10m turned back test. All the patients stopped using dopaminergic drugs for at least 12h before each assessment. Results In rTMS treatment group, the UPDRS total scores, UPDRSⅠ-Ⅲ, the mean times of grooved pegboard and 10m turned back test were significantly decreased 10 days after treatment compared with pre-treatment (all (P)0.05), and PDQ scores significantly decreased 3 months after treatment. In sham treatment group, there was no difference of each index between pre- and post-sham treatment.Conclusion Low frequency rTMS may improve the symptoms of the patients with PD and raise their quality of life.

Objective To evaluate the effect of infiltration anesthesia at Calot's triangle on postoperative analgesia in the patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Methods One hundred and forty patients,aged 18-64 yr,with 18 kg/m2 ≤ body mass index ≤ 31 kg/m2,of ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =70 each):control group (group A) and infiltration anesthesia at Calot's triangle group (group B).In group B,1％ ropivacaine 10 ml was injected into Calot's triangle before dissection of the gallbladder,while the equal volume of normal saline was injected into Calot's triangle in group A.The patients in both groups received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) for 48 h starting from 10 min before the end of surgery.The VAS score was maintained below 4 during PCIA.When VAS score ≥ 4,lasting for more than 30 min,tramadol 1.5 mg/kg was injected intravenously.The consumption of physic liquor for PCIA,and requirement for tramadol were recorded.The incidence of puncture-related damage to Calot's triangle and local anesthetic intoxication and adverse effects such as nausea and vomiting within 48 h after surgery were also recorded.The first postoperative flatus time was recorded.Results Compared with group A,the consumption of physic liquor for PCIA,requirement for tramadol,and consumption of tramadol were significantly reduced,and no significant change was found in the incidence of nausea and vomiting and the first postoperative flatus time in group B.No puncture-related damage to Calot's triangle occurred in A and B groups.There was no local anesthetic intoxication in group B.Conclusion Infiltration anesthesia at Calot's triangle can optimize postoperative analgesia in the patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of pretreatment with Shenfu injectio(SFI)on myocardium against ischemia-reperfusion(I/R)injury in diabetic rabbits.Methods Forty healthy adult male rabbits weighing 2.4-3.2 kg were used in this study.Type I diabetes mellitus was induced by intravenous alloxan 120 mg?kg~(-1) and confirmed by fasting blood glucose＞11.1 mmol?L~(-1).The animals were randomly divided into 5 groups(n=8 each):groupⅠsham operation;groupⅡI/R and groupⅢ,Ⅳ,ⅤSFI+I/R.I/R was produced by occlusion of the anterior descending branch of left coronary artery(LAD)for 60 min.The occlusion of LAD was then released for reperfusion.In sham operation group(Ⅰ)LAD was exposed but not occluded.In groupⅢ,ⅣandⅤSFI 5,10 and 15 ml?kg~(-1) was givenⅣrespectively 30 min before myocardial ischemia.MAP,HR,left ventricular developed pressure(LVDP),?dp/dt_(max),left ventricular end-diastolic pressure(LVEDP)and Vmax were recorded immediately before ischemia(T_0,baseline),at 5 min of ischemia(T_1),immediately before reperfusion(T_2)and at 5,15,60,90,120 min of reperfusion(T_(3-7)).The animals were killed and hearts removed for determination of infarct size and microscopic examination of the ultrastructure of LAD using transmission electron microscope.Results MAP,HR,LVDP,?dp/dt_(max) and Vmax were significantly decreased while LVEDP was significantly increased during reperfusion as compared to the baseline values at T_0 in I/R group. I/R produced myocardial infarct and damage to the endothelial cells of LAD.The harmful effect of I/R was attenuated by different doses of SFI.SFI 10 ml?kg~(-1) provided best effect.Conclusion Pretreatment with SFI can protect the myocardium against I/R injury in diabetic rabbits.SFI 10 ml?kg~(-1) produces better effect.

ObjeCtive To investigate the value of protein biochip in the diagnosis of Lyme borreliosis. Methods The serum IgM and IgG antibodies against flagellin were detected by flagellin coated-and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) modified-biochips in 82 patients with neuroborreliosis (NB),35 patients with erythema migrans (EM) and 44 normal controls.The results were compared with those from enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and Western blot.Results The levels of both IgM and IgG antibodies were significantly higher in the NB patients than those in the normal controls (P

Objective To evaluate the effect of the transcranial magnetic stimulation on upper-extremity function rehabilitation and changes in the excitability of cerebral cortex,and to evaluate from the viewpoint of electro-physiology the prognosis so as to guide the rehabilitation treatment of patients after stroke.Methods Forty-six patients in the early stage after a stroke were given TMS examinations of the ipsilateral brain region.Those with the motor evoked potentials (MEPs) amplitudes lower than 50 μV were classified into a motion-induced experimental negative group (the negative group),whiie those whose MEP amplitude reached 50 μV or more were classified as movement-induced positive (the positive group).Both groups were given the same treatment.Before and after 2,4 and 8 weeks of treatment the Fugl-Meyer movement function rating scale was used to assess their bilateral upper limb movement function.TMS technology was used to detect any change in the resting motor threshold (RMT) and the amplitude (Amp) of MEPs in the motor cortex.The incubation period of the cortex (CL) and the central motor conduction time (CMCT) in the contralateral motor cerebral cortex were also observed.Results After 4 weeks of treatment,the average score of the positive group on Fugl-Meyer upper movement function rating scale reached (54.99±2.76),significantly higher than before treatment and significantly higher than the negative group's average (P＜0.05).After 8 weeks of treatment,the average score in the positive group had increased further to 73.11±2.98,still significantly higher than that of the negative group (P＜0.01).After treatment,RMT decreased progressively in both groups,but that of the negative group dropped from (98.35±10.12) to (30.35±7.31) (9＜0.01),with significantly greater decline in amplitude and rate than that of the positive group (P＜0.05).After treatment,the Amp of both groups showed a gradual increasing trend.Amp increased earlier in the positive group,but there was no significant difference in the extent of the increase between the two groups (P＞0.05).After the treatment the CL and CMCT had shortened significantly in the negative group compared to before the treatment (P＜0.05),while there was no significant change in CL and CMCT after the treatment (P＞0.05).Conclusions The excitability of the contralateral motor cortex changes after a stroke.TMS can be used to characterize the MEP to monitor and predict recovery.This should help clinicians prepare more scientific rehabilitation plans.
