The effects of ranitidine (Ran) on cultured myocardial cells of neonatal rats were observed. Ran 100 ?mol?L-1 took no effect on spontaneous beating rates of cultured myocardial cells, but it decreased the beating rates increased by histamine 10 ?mol?L-1 and did not inhibit the beating rates increased by isoprenaline 2?mol?L-1. Histamine 10?mol?L-1 increased the amplitude, maximal rate of rise and pro-longed action potential duration at 50% (APD50) and 90% (APD90) repolarization. The effect was abolished by Ran 100?mol?L-1. The results suggested that Ran may possess antiarrhythmic action induced by histamine's increase.

Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of triamcinolone acetonide acetonide ( TAA) and chloramphenicol in the cream. Methods:The chromatographic system consisted of a ZORBAX SB-C18 column (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5μm). The mobile phase consisted of methanol and phosphate buffer with gradient elution at a flow rate of 1. 0 ml·min-1, the detection wavelength was 240nm, the column temperature was ambient, and the sample size was 20 μl. Results:The calibration curve was linear for TAA and chloramphenicol within the concentration range of 6. 12-48. 96 μg·ml-1 and 62. 1-745. 2 μg·ml-1 with the recovery of 99. 7% (RSD=1. 3%, n=9) and 99. 4%(RSD=1. 0%, n=9), respectively. Conclusion: The method is sensitive, accurate and specific, and can be used to control the quality of chloramphenicol and triamcinolone acetonide acetate cream.

Objective To strengthen physiatrist's knowledge of diagnosis and treatment of venous thromboembolism by analysing 7 venous thromboembolic events in rehabilitation. Methods 7 cases with venous thromboembolism (VTE) in our department were involved in this study. Related data of these patients were collected, investigated and analyzed. Results 6 cases were deep venous thrombosis (DVT), 1 case was pulmonary embolism (PE). The patients with DVT were treated successfully by thrombolytic and/or anticoagulant therapy as well as later rehabilitation treatment, and the patient with PE was cured after intra-arterial mechanical thrombolysis therapy and later anticoagulant therapy. Conclusion Prevention and treatment of VTE is becoming a very important issue in development in our country. Active prevention, early recognition and treatment are very important for the prognosis of patients with VTE.

AIM: To determine the evolutionary pattern of parenchymal cell apoptosis in multiple organs early after intestinal ischemia-reperfusion(I/R) and its induction mechanisms and the role of apoptosis in triggering SIRS/MODS. METHODS: An I/R model was reproduced by clipping and releasing the superior mesenteric artery in rats and mice. Flow cytometry, electron microscope, DNA agarose gel electrophoresis, TUNEL method, fluorescent and Gomori's silver-HE staining were used to detect apoptosis. Distribution features of apoptotic parenchymal cells in multiple organs were observed. Immunohistochemical staining of HSP 70 and Bcl-2 were performd to study the induction mechanisms of apoptosis.RESULTS and CONCLUSION: 1. Damage of the liver, lung, gut and kidney was appeared in early phase of I/R. The percentages of apoptosis in parenchyma organs increased progressively. The percentages of cell necrosis increased with the prolonged I/R duration. 2. Percentages of apoptosis were much higher near the central veins of liver lobules, in the outer medulla of the kidney, and the antimescenteric border of intestinal mucosal epithelium because of ischemia. 3. The expression of HSP 70 increased and Bcl-2 reduced in the areas mentioned above because of hypoperfusion. 4. Apoptosis of I/R hepatocytes, splenocytes and thymocytes was obviously increased after Kupffer cell blockage with GdCl3, showing the functional state of Kupffer cells may play an important role in SIRS/MODS.

Objective To study the effects of motor imagery therapy combined with electromyographic (EMG) biofeedback on upper limb function in hemiplegic patients.Methods Sixty hemiplegic stroke patients were recruited and divided into a control group (n=20),an electrical stimulation group (n=20) and a combination group (n=20).All groups received basic medication and routine rehabilitation training once daily for 4 weeks.The electrical stimulation group was also treated with EMG biofeedback,and the combination group with motor imagery therapy plus EMG biofeedback.The Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA),the modified Barthel index (MBI) and EMG parameters were assessed before and after 2 courses of treatment.Results After 8 weeks of treatment all groups had significantly higher FMA scores and MBI scores,and better integrated EMG values,but the effects in the combination group were significantly better than those in the other two groups.Conclusions Motor imagery therapy combined with EMG biofeedback can more effectively promote recovery of upper limb function in hemiplegic stroke patients.

Objective To research the clinical rehabilitative effect of repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for the non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease.Methods Fifty-five PD patients were randomly divided into an rTMS treatment group (n =29) and a sham stimulation group (n =26).The treatment group received a course of 0.5 Hz rTMS treatment,while the sham stimulation group had the same treatment but with no energy output.Both groups were evaluated using a non-motor symptoms questionnaire (NMSQuest),the Hamilton depression scale (HAMD),the Pediatric Daytime Sleepiness Scale (PDSS),the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and the scale for outcomes in PD for autonomic symptoms (SCOPA-AUT) before treatment,immediately after,and a month after treatment.Results Compared with before treatment,the average NMSQuest score of the treatment group declined significantly,though 1 month after treatment the improvement was no longer significant.After treatment and 1 month later the average NMSQuest score of the sham stimulation group increased gradually.The effect in the treatment group was therefore significantly better than in the sham stimulation group.After treatment and 1 month later the average HAMD score of the treatment group was significantly lower than before treatment while the average HAMD score of the sham stimulation group had increased gradually.The improvement in depression in the treatment group was therefore significantly better than in the sham stimulation group.After treatment,sleep disorders in the treatment group had been significantly alleviated,but one month later the improvement was no longer significant compared with before treatment.PDSS scores in the sham stimulation group declined gradually,but the improvement in sleep disorders among the treatment group was significantly better than among the sham stimulation group.Cognition improved significantly among the treatment group right after treatment,but 1 month later it had worsened while the MMSE scores of the sham stimulation group decreased gradually.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant.The average SCOPA-AUT scores of the two groups were not significantly different from each other or from the scores before treatment.Conclusion Repeated TMS can improve most non-motor symptoms of PD.The improvement in depression is the most significant.A short course of rTMS has no obvious rehabilitative effect on the autonomic function disorders of PD patients.

Objective To study that Geranylgeranylacetone(GA) induce the expression of heat shock protein 70 expression in hippocampus of Alzheimer's model rats and its effect on learning and memory ability in the model rats induced by Aβ1-42 injection into hippocampus.Method 72 health SD rats were randomly divided into GGA group,model group was injected with Aβ1-42 and control group was injected with normal saline into hippocampus.Y maze test was used to detect the learning and memory ability of the rats at the 7th,14th and 21st day after injection into hippocampus separately.HSP70 expression in hippocampus tissues were detected by RT-PCR and western-blot as soon as Y maze test has been finished.Result The learning and memory ability of the rats in model group decreased significantly at the 14th and 21st day after injection than those in control group(P<0.05),but not too much changed in GGA group(P<0.05).HSP70 expres- sions in hippocampus tissues in model group decreased gradually after injection Aβ1-42,but increased in GGA group at the 7th,14th and 21st day after injection.Conclusion GGA can induce the expression of HSP70 in hippocarnpus of Alzheimer's model rats and meliorate the neuron impairment as well as the learning and memory ability of the rats.

A novel solid-phase extraction (SPE) adsorbent for simultaneous extraction of atrazine (ATZ) and its metabolites, deisopropylatrazine (DIA) and deethylatrazine (DEA) from environmental water samples was prepared. Polyacrylonitrile nanofibers (PAN NFs) mat was prepared via electrospinning, and was further functionalized to obtain polypyrrole modified polyacrylonitrile nanofibers (PPy-PAN NFs) mat, hydrazine modified polyacrylonitrile nanofibers (NH2-PAN NFs) mat and carboxyl modified polyacrylonitrile (COOH-PAN NFs) mat. The results showed that the adsorption capacity of COOH-PAN NFs mat was better than other three NFs mats in both static (2.0 mg/g) and dynamic (0.19 mg/g) experiments. Meanwhile, the runoff ratios of COOH-PAN NFs mat were the lowest (less than 30.0％) in the adsorption of three analytes, especially for high polar analytes, which showed that the hydrogen bond between carboxyl groups and analytes was the main interactive force. A combination of mat-based SPE and high performance liquid chromatography-diode array detection was further established for determination of 3 analytes in environmental water samples. The recoveries were 81.4％-120.3％ and the limits of detection were 0.12 ng/mL for DIA, 0.09 ng/mL for DEA and ATZ, respectively.
