Objective:To detect periodontopathic bacterial DNA in atherosclerotic vascular lesions in a group of Chinese patients by using polymerase chain reaction(PCR) techniques.Methods: Ten human specimens of atherosclerotic plaque were obtained sterilely.The sclerotic lesions were blade into fine pieces and DNA was isolated from the samples.To detect Porphyromonas gingivalis(Pg),Tannerella forsythia(Tf),Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans(Aa),Prevotella intermedia(Pi),Prevotella nigre-scens(Pn),Treponema denticola(Td),Campylobacter rectus(Cr),PCR amplification of bacterial 16S ribosomal DNA(rDNA) was carried out.Results: PCR assays for bacterial 16S rDNA indicated the presence of periodontal pathogens in 3 out of 10 surgical specimens.DNA of Pg were found in 3 samples,Tf was found only in one among the 3 samples and Pn was found in another sample among the 3 samples.Conclusion: The data confirm that DNA of periodontal pathogens present in atherosclerotic plaques.Pg,Tf,Pn may play a role in the development and progression of atherosclerosis in these Chinese patients.Further studies with large size samples are needed.

Objective To investigate the expressions of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) in colonic mucosa of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC)and to analyze the relationship between them. Methods The specimens of colonic mucosa from 32 UC patients were graded according to endoscopic and histological grading standards, and specimens of colonic mucosa from 26 healthy controls were also collected. The expressions of COX-2 and 5-LOX mRNA and protein in colonic mucosa were determined using real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry. The correlation between COX-2 and 5-LOX was analyzed. Results For UC patients,10 were class 1, 19 class 2 and 3 class 3 according to endoscopic grading, whereas 19 were class Ⅰ , 9 class Ⅱ and 4 class Ⅲ according to histological grading. The expressions of COX-2 and 5-LOX mRNA in active UC patients were 81. 25% and 53.13%, respectively, and were 11.54% and 19. 23% in healthy controls, respectively, with significant differences between the two groups (all P values＜0.01). The positive expressions of COX2 and 5-LOX increased in accordance with increasing of endoscopic grading and histological grading.The levels of COX-2 and 5-LOX were 20. 08±1.17 and 37.83 ±1.48 in colonic mucosa tissues of UC patients, respectively, and 48.42 ± 1.69 and 11.28 ± 1.62 in healthy controls, respectively. There was significant difference between the two groups (all P values＜0.05). A good positive correlation was found between COX-2 and 5-LOX. Conclusions The expressions of COX-2 is closely related to 5-LOX in UC patients. Both may play a pivotal role in inflammation of UC.

Purpose:To study the significance of resecting the lymph nodes adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve in the operation on cNo thyroid papillary carcinoma,and its value inselecting the fashion of operation .Methods:Reviewing the clinical-pathological material of 186 cases of cNo thyroid papillarycary cinoma,and analyzing the relationship between lymph nodes adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve and lateral cervical nodes metastasis. Results:Of 186 cases of cNo thyroid papillary cacinoma,there were 42.5% (79/186) with metastatic lymph nodes adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve,63.2% of which had lateral cervical nodes or distant metastasis,while only 8 cases had metastasis in the negative group. Conclusions:The thyroid papillary carcinoma with metastatic nodes adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve means there is a higher chance of metastasis in regions of the neck. Resecting the lymph nodes adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve and frozed pathological examination can be a basis to determine whether redical neck dissection should be performed.

Objective To establish a method for determining the content of Naringin and Hesperidin in Zengshi Keli by HPLC. Methods The Kromasil C18 column with acetonitrile-water-phosphoric acid (20∶80∶0.02) as the mobile phase was used. The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min, the detective wavelength was 283 nm, the temperature of column is 35 ℃. Results The calibration curve were linear in the range of 0.178 5～0.892 5 ?g for Naringin and 0.073 68～0.368 4 ?g for Hesperidin (r=0.999 9) respectively. The average recovery was 97.24% (RSD=1.21%) and 96.95% (RSD=1.49%) respectively. Conclusion The method was simple, accurate, reproducible and can be used for quality control of Zengshi Keli.

Objective　To observe the influence of pre-infarction angina on ventricular function and prognosis of first acute myocardial infarction in old people. Methods　76 first acute myocardial infarction old patients was divided into two groups: angina pectoris group (n=42); no angina pectoris group (n=34). Global left ventricular function was assessed by echocardiography, arrhythmia, cardiogenic shock, heart failure, post-infarction angina and mortality was observed in hospital. Results　The rate of cardiogenic shock and heart failure and mortality was lower in angina pectoris group (33.3% vs 58.8%; 2.4% vs 23.5%), LVEF and E/A was higher in angina pectoris group (0.52±0.056 vs 0.45±0.03,0.86±0.29 vs 0.54±0.35), P<0.05. Conclusion　pre-infarction angina possesses the protecting effects on ventricular function of first acute myocardial infarction in old people, and can improve the prognosis of first acute myocardial infarction in old people.

[Objective] To explore the effect of low intensity pulsed ultrasound(LIPUS)on the ability of repairing rabbit radius defect by cell-scaffold complex composed with bone marrow stromal cells(BMCs)and ?-tricalcium phosphate(?-TCP).[Method]Bone marrow of a rabbit was drawn and cultured by differentiation culture medium to harvest BMCs and the third generation BMCs were cultivated on ?-TCP for one week in vitro.Bilateral distal radial defects were made using a 1-mm saw in 20 mature New Zealand white rabbits.The cell-scaffold complexs stimulated by LIPUS were implanted in rabbit radial defects(cell-scaffold complexs without stimulation as control).All the rabbits were killed at 4 or 8 weeks after operation.The defect healing state was observed with X-ray and histological technic.The gray density of CA was analyzed by computer image analysis system.[Result]It was found that the callus in the experimental group grew more quickly and apparently than that in the control group.At 4 weeks after operation,there was significantly statistical difference(P0.05).Histological slices in the experimental group showed that the absorption,organization of hematoma,the formation of trabeculae and matrix preceded those in the control group.There were more fibroblast,osteoblasts and callus in the experimental group.[Conclusion]Cell-scaffold complex composed with BMCs and ?-TCP stimulated by LIPUS can repair bone defect more effectively than that without LIPUS stimulation at the early stage of healing,but the effect tend to decrease at the late stage.

Objective: To observe the effects of exposure to white noise on the procession of learning and memory, and the expression of NOS (nitric oxide synthase) in hippocampus of rats Method: 20 rats were randomly divided into two groups for observation of spatial learning and memory, one group exposed to 80 dB white noise during Y-maze training, the other group received Y-maze training under normal condition Another 24 rats were randomly divided into 3 groups, they experienced normal Y-maze training, noise Y-maze training and sole noise as control respectively Immunohistochemical assay was used to investigate the expression of NOS positive neurons Result: Noise hampered the ability of rats' spatial learning and memory, furthermore, the number of NOS positive neurons in hippocampus of noise training group was less than that of normal training group Conclusion: The activity of NOS positive neuron in hippocampus was decreased by exposure to noise, suggesting the inhibition of learning dependent long term procession in hippocampus and corresponding difficulty in obtaining and maintaining of memory
