Objective To explore the therapeutical effect of somatostatin(SST) on the damaged bowel barrier of 7-day-old SD rats with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE). Methods Total 7-day-old SD rats were randomly divided into untreated control group(n=6), sham-operated group(n = 6), HIE model group(n = 8) and SST-treated group(n = 8). After 6 hours of operation, abdominal aorta blood of the rats was collected to measure the level of D-lactic acid, the ileum was taken for pathological analysis and immunohistochemistry staining of SP. Results The level of D-lactic acid in HIE model group was obviously increased[(10.30 ± 1.70)mg/L], and there were significant differences compared to untreated control group, sham-operated group as well as SST-treated group respectively(P < 0.05, respectively). The cillia of ileum became widen and shorten, and the number of it decreased. At the same time, in the stratum mucosa and the neurofibrillary tangle, the expression of SP was increased (average optical density: 12.67 ± 5.46), and there were significant differences compared to untreated control group, sham-operated group as well as SST-treated group raspectively (P < 0.05,respectively).Compared with HIE model group,the level of D-lactic aeid decreased obviously[(7.35 ± 1.55) mg/L] in SST-treated group,and there were no differences compared to untreated control group and sham-operated group respectively. The intestinal villi became thinner and higher in the SST-treated group, even the number increased. Besides that, the expression of SP decreased(average optical density: 0.73 ± 0.09), and there were no differences compared to untreated control group and sham-operated group respectively. Conclusion The therapeutical effect of SST on the bowel barrier damage of 7-day-old SD rats with HIE is clear.

Purpose The regeneration effects of nerve growth factor(NGF)on superior cervical ganglia innewborn mice destroyed by vincristine(VCR)and peroneal nerve of adult rats destroyed by grip were studiedby morphological methods. Methods Superior cervical ganglia. The Qunming newborn mice at 2 dayswere divided into 3 groups: experiment, control and blank. The experiment animals were injected with VCR,10 μl/g of body weight at a concentration of 0.02 mmol/L. Simultaneously, the NGF was injected 2,5,10μg/g of body weight, respectively. But the control animals were only injected with VCR at the same dose.The blank control animals weren' t treated anything. All of these chemicals were injected once a day for 4days. 24h after the last injection, the superior cervical ganglia were dissected out and analyzed their size andmorphology. Peripheral nerve. The peroneal nerve of SD adult rats were destroyed by grip, and divided into2 groups: experiment and control. The experiment rats were injected with NGF 2,4 and 8 μg/kg of bodyweight respectively, near the gripped nerve,once a day for 12 days after 24 h of the injury. 24 h after the lastinjection, the perone al nerve and extensor longus digitorum were dissected out and analyzed their morphologyand counted the number of nerve fiber at proximal and distal injury. Results VCR injection in newbommice produced severe atrophy of superior cervical ganglia. And the neuronal cells apoptosed and decomposed.Simultaneous injections of NGF prevented the noxious effects of VCR, and resulted in an increase intransverse diameter from 61 to 95 percent and the total number of neuronal cells from 59 to 70 percent. Thisimproved degree was related to the dose of NGF. Furthermore, NGF obviously improved the structure of peroneal nerve and extensor longus digitorum. And this effect was the best in the high dosage. ConclusionsNerve growth factor has an obvious regeneration effects in superior cervical ganglia of newborn mice destroyed by VCR and peroneal nerve of rat destroyed by grip.

Objective To compare the impact on the ovarian reserve function after cisplatin intraperitoneal or intravenous chemotherapy in rats model. Methods Thirty 8-weeks old female Sprague Dawley rats were randomly assigned to control group (group A, n=10), intraperitoneal chemotherapy group (group B, n=10) and intravenous chemotherapy group (group C, n=10). Cisplatin was diluted by normal saline (NS) into 4 mg/ml. On the first day of chemotherapy, 0.2 ml cisplatin dilution was injected into the abdomen of rats in group B, isodose cisplatin was injected into vein and 1.8 ml NS was injected into abdomen of rats in group C, 2.0 ml NS was injected into abdomen of rats in group A for control. Feed the three groups rats and test the anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) in serum on day 0 (just before injection), day 10 and day 20 by ELISA, count the numble of follicle in bilateral ovaries on day 20. Results (1) The levels of serum AMH in the three groups before and after chemotherapy were compared: ① comparison between groups: On day 10 and day 20 , the AMH level in group B [(64.5 ± 2.9), (68.6 ± 3.4) ng/L] and group C [(76.1±4.9), (91.3±3.9) ng/L] was significantly lower than that in group A [(120.1±5.3), (121.7±4.6) ng/L;P<0.01], AMH level in group B was significantly also lower than that in group C (P=0.000). ② Comparison within groups:the AMH level on day 0 was significantly lower than that on day 10 and day 20 in group A (P<0.01), but there was no significant difference between day 10 and day 20 (P=0.427). The AMH level on day 0 was significantly higher than those on day 10 and day 20 in group B (P<0.01) and group C (P<0.01). There was no difference in AMH level between day 10 and day 20 (P=0.124) in group B, but the level was significant lower on day 10 than that on day 20 in group C (P=0.011). (2)Comparison of the number of follicles in ovaries of three groups 20 days after chemotherapy:the follicles number in group A(35±13)was greater than that in group B (16 ± 9,P=0.003) and similar with group C (31 ± 16,P=0.474) on day 20. The follicles number in group B was significantly less than that in group C (P=0.018). Conclusions In the present study, both intravenous and intraperitoneal chemotherapy have impacts on ovarian reserve function and the latter might be more serious. The level of AMH will rise again over time after chemotherapy and rats undergo intravenous chemotherapy would recover faster. The results suggest that the ovarian reserve function need more time to recover after intraperitoneal chemotherapy. For patients with ovarian cancer who want to preserve fertility function, intravenous chemotherapy might be more appropriate.

Objective To introduce a new classification system for femoral intertrochanteric fractures and propose classification to assist surgical management.Methods A total of 176 cases of femoral intertrochanteric fractures treated from September 2007 to October 2011 were enrolled in the study.X-ray and three-dimensional spiral CT reconstruction were performed to define fracture shape,location,number of major fragments and displaced direction.As combined with the intraoperative findings and cadaveric anatomical study,the femoral intertrochateric fractures was simulated using a three-dimensional entity of normal proximal femur produced by Mimics 11.1 program.A new classification system for femoral intertrochateric fractures was proposed.Results The new system categorized intertrochateric fractures of the femur into five types (Type Ⅰ,Type Ⅱ,Type Ⅲ,Type Ⅳ and Type Ⅴ) based on the integrity or destruction of the medial column,lateral column and posterior column set and divided on the basis of bone connection of femoral head-neck fracture fragments with the bone in intertrochanteric region.Conclusions The new classification system with introduction of three-column concept is brief and practical and has a clear definition of fracture stability.Besides,the new classification-based treatment is recommended.

Objective To test the accuracy of a three-dimensional dose verification system CompassR,which reconstructing dose distribution based on measurements and independent dose calculation,and to evaluate the feasibility of its application in clinical intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) quality assure.Methods A set of square-wave chart patterns of 2 cm,1 cm and 0.5 cm gaps was designed and 11 completed IMRT lung plans were selected for the test.EDR2 film and the ionization chamber were used for test and verifying of plane dose distribution and some special points dose of CompassR.The IMRT phantom plans were verified by CompassR with three-dimension based on anatomical information.Parameters including the volume γ pass rate and the average dose deviation were tested using dose volume histograms.Results In square-wave chart patterns test,the dose distribution reconstructed and calculated by CompassR coincided with the measurement using film.The γ pass rates (3％/3 mm,2％/2 mm) exceeded 90％.When the width of field is 0.5 cm,the γ pass rate was a little lower on account of the penumbra zone.Compared to the dose distribution profile which was measured by film,the maximum deviations of the dose distribution profile which was reconstructed and calculated by CompassR were 3.21％ and 2.70％.The absolute dose deviation of specific point in the IMRT plans was less than 3％,the maximum deviation occurred in the lung.Compared to film,the averageγpass rates on the isocenter plain in IMRT plan were (94.65 + 1.93)％ (3％/3 mm) which was reconstructed by CompassR.In three-dimensional dose verification,the volume γ pass rates of targets and risk organs were not less than 90％,and the deviation of average dose was less than 1％.Conclusions Accuracy of the tested system satisfies the demand of IMRT dose verification.CompassR could provide information of volumetric dosimetry and anatomical location of dose error,which is benefit for evaluating the clinical value of verification result.

ObjectiveTo compare the accuracy of enhanced dynamic wedge (EDW) models of adaptive convolution algorithm (ACA) in Pinnacle3 9.0 and anisotropic analytical algorithm (AAA),and pencil beam convolution (PBC) algorithms in Eclipse7.3 treatment planning systems (TPS).MethodsTo evaluate the accuracy of the three algorithm models,we compared actual measurement values with TPS calculation values of EDW wedge factors under for different fields in which Varian-21EX 6 MV X-ray was applied,and also compared the actual dose distribution profile with that of TPS.ResultsThe deviations of EDW wedge factors of symmetry fields and asymmetric fields are within 2.8％ and 19.4％ for ACA in Pinnacle3 9.0.Meanwhile,the deviations are 1.0％ and 2.0％ for AAA,1.2％ and 3.0％ for PBC in Eclipse7.3.The deviations between measurement and calculation of all fields profile for ACA is within 3％ and within 2.7％ for AAA within 4.0％ for PBC in wedge direction.For the dose distributions,we evaluated the pass rates of three algorithms using gamma analysis.The gamma pass rates among all the three algorithms in symmetry and asymmetric fields are above 87％ and 85％ respectively.After the removal of the penumbra zone,the pass rates among all the three algorithms are above 96％ in symmetry fields,and above 95％ in asymmetric fields,respectively.Conclusions AAA and PBC algorithms in symmetric and asymmetric fields can meet the need of clinical applications.While,wedge factor of ACA should not be used in clinical due to its greater error in asymmetric fields.
