Objective To observe the expression of stromal cell derived factor-1?(SDF-1?) in vessels after common carotid artery balloon injury. Methods Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into control group(group C) and balloon injury group(group S).The latter was subdivided into group S0(just after surgery),group S1(1 d after surgery),group S4(4 d after surgery) and group S7(7 d after surgery).Rats in group S were performed left common carotid artery balloon injury.For all the rats,peripheral blood samples were taken,and CD34+CXCR4+cells were detected with flow cytometer.The left common carotid arteries were obtained to detect the expression of SDF-1? mRNA and protein by RT-PCR and Western blotting,respectively. Results The number of CD34+CXCR4+ cells increased significantly in peripheral blood(P

Objective To investigate the effects of eardiopulmonary bypass(CPB)on plasma nitric oxide (NO)and asymmetric dimethyl arginine(ADMA)concentrations in patients with congenital heart disease complicated with pulmonary hypertension undergoing open heart surgery.Methods Eighteen ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients aged 11-40 yr weighing 26-59 kg undergoing open heart surgery under CPB were divided into 3 groups according to pulmonary arterial systolic pressure(PASP)(n=6 each):group Ⅰ PASP<30 mm Hg;group Ⅱ PASP 30-50 mm Hg and group Ⅲ PASP>50 mm Hg.Arterial blood samples were taken before induction of anesthesia (To,baseline),at the start and termination of CPB(T1,2)and 3,6,24 h after CPB(T3-5)for determination of plasma NO and ADMA concentrations.Results The three groups were comparable with respect to M/F sex ratio,age,body weight and CPB time.The plasma ADMA concentrations were significantly increased while NO concentrations were significantly decreased at termination of CPB(T2)and 3 and 6 h after CPB(T3,4)as compared with the baseline at T0 in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ.The plasma ADMA concentration were significantly higher and No concentrations were significantly lower at all time points in groupⅡand Ⅲthan in group Ⅰ.Conclusion CPB can increase plasma ADMA concentration and decrease plasma NO concentration in patients with congenital heart disease complicated with pulmonary hypertension undergoing open heart surgery.

Objective To observe the effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor(ACEI) on insulin sensiti-(vity) in dogs with acute myocardial infarction(AMI) after thrombolytic treatment. Methods Twenty dogs were made as AMI models and then underwent thrombolytic treatment.The dogs were divided into the control group(n=10) and the captopril group(n=10) randomly.Insulin,plasma glucose,erythrocyte insulin receptor(EIR),nitrogen(NO) and angiotensin Ⅱ(AT Ⅱ) were(detected) and insulin sensitivity index(ISI) was calculated.The changes of these values in the two groups were contrasted. Results After reperfusion for 120 min,in the control group,ISI and AT Ⅱgot much more rise while EIR and NO fell much more(P

Objective To identify and investigate B(A)02 allele in a patient. Methods Serological tests were performed with standard serological methods in a patient with B(A)02 allele. DNA sequences of all seven exons and exon-intron boundaries of ABO gene were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), direct DNA sequencing and sequencing after gene cloning. In order to analyze the allele, PyMOL software was used to establish 3D model of Glycosyltransferases B (GTB). Results The serological results showed the characteristics of B(A) phenotype. DNA analysis revealed that ABO gene of the individual was heterozygous of B(A)02/O01 allele. 700C>G mutation was identified in B101 allele, which resulted in the amino acid substitution P234A in GTB. Through the analysis of the 3D structure of GTB, it was speculated that the P234A replacement affected the intermolecular forces of the 234 amino acid and Met-266, thus changed the conformation of the donor-binding pocket of GTB,that made GTB capable of recognizing and tranferring the GalNac to the H antigen, which can lead to the formation of the weak A antigen on membrane of red blood cells. Conclusion The P234A replacement can affect the spatial conformation of the specific recognition region conformed by Met-266 and Ala-268 residues, which leads to the antigenicity change of the ABO blood group.

To assess the drug utilization and tendency of progress of oral hypoglycemic agents in our hospital and to provide references for rational administration clinically. Methods: DDDs, sales quantities, sales expenses and the ratio of sales expenses sequencing to that of DDDs in our hospital during the period of 2003 ～ 2005 were analyzed statistically with the method of DDDs analysis. Results:The top two antidiabetic drugs according to DDDs were melbine ( dimethyl diguanide) and gliclazide three successive years. The DDDs of acarbose increased dramatically. Which blood glucose regulatsry drugs ranked lower, the ratio of sales expenses sequencing to that of DDDs of glipizide and gliclazide controlled release pellets was equal or about, whereas that of rosiglitazone, acarbose(glucobay) and glimepiride was less than 1. Conclusion:The study shows that the drug utilization of oral hypoglycemic agents in our hospital is basically rational and is in accordance with the trend of advancement and drug therapeutic strategies of diabetes mellitus.

Anxiety disorder is one of the most common mental disorders and seriously impairs the physical and mental health of patients. Due to the efficacy of acupuncture for tranquilization, acupuncture displays its unique advantage on the treatment of anxiety disorder, but the relevant biological mechanism has not been elaborated. The modern medicine study has proved that the heart and brain have their own independent natriuretic peptide (NP) system. The dysfunction of ANP and its receptor are closely related to the occurrence of anxiety disorder. The ANP acts on anti-anxiety. Hence, focusing on the three aspects, named the anti-anxiety effect of acupuncture based on its tranquilizing effect, the anti-anxiety effect of ANP and the positive regulation of acupuncture on NP, the mechanism on ANP and its receptor was explored in anti-anxiety with acupuncture based on tranquilizing effect, and the idea was put forward on that the anti-anxiety effect of acupuncture was possibly based on its action of tranquilization through regulating the ANP and its receptor. As a result, it is expected to provide the theoretic support for the mechanism study on anti-anxiety with acupuncture based on its tranquilizing effect.

Objective To study the association between functional genetic polymorphisms of IL-1B(T-31C,C-511T),IL-1RN and the susceptibility to gastric cancers. Methods A case-control study was conducted in 180 gastric cancer cases and 308 age-and sex-matched cancer-free controls.Genotypes were detected by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP) assays,and association between genotypes,environmental factors and risk of gastric cancers were determined. Results IL-1B T-31C was in strong linkage disequilibrium with IL-1B C-511T(D'=0.862,R2= 0.721,P=0.000).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the variant genotypes of IL-1B T-31C and C-511T were not significantly associated with risks for gastric cancers(adjusted OR,0.95 and 95% CI,0.62-1.47 for IL-1B T-31C;and adjusted OR,0.85 and 95% CI,0.55-1.31 for IL-1B C-511T).The variant genotypes(1/2,2/2) in IL-1RN were associated with a non-significantly increased risks for gastric cancers(adjusted OR,1.32 and 95% CI,0.71-2.36) in all subjects and with a significantly increased risks for gastric cancers in subjects with H.pylori infection(adjusted OR,2.03 and 95%CI,1.02-4.80).Conclusion The functional genetic polymorphisms of IL-1RN may contribute to the risks of gastric cancers in high-risk population,particularly in those with H.pylori infection.

Objective To investigate the cleaning effects of two different methods (modified ultrasound method VS traditional cleaning method) on endoscopy buttons,including suction button and water/gas injection button,and to provide effective clinical evidence for seeking better methods in cleaning endoscopy buttons.Methods A total of 200 endoscopy buttons were randomly divided into two groups:modified ultrasound cleaning group (experimental group) and traditional cleaning group (control group).The combination of multienzyme abluent and ultrasound vibration was applied to the experimental group and multienzyme abluent was used in the control group.ATP bioluminescence detection technology was applied to detect the residual status of organic substance and this parameter was used to evaluate the disinfection status of two different cleaning methods.Results The average organic substance residual was (217.0 ± 29.8) RLU and (42.74 ±8.6)RLU in control group and experimental group,respectively(P ＜0.01).The pass rates were 26％ (26/100) and 87％ (87/100) in in control group and experimental group respectively (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Modified ultrasound cleaning method combined with multienzyme abluent and ultrasound vibration has great cleaning effects on endoscopy buttons before disinfection.It can be regarded as a new method for cleaning endoscopy buttons.

Objective To investigate the values of three-dimensional visualization technology in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of hepatic hemangioma. Methods Thirty two patients with hepatic hemangioma who had been hospitalized during the period from July 2010 to January 2014 in our hospital were scanned by 64-slice spiral computerized tomography (CT) before surgical treatment. Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction based on the CT data was carried out to achieve dignosis and surgical planning. Assisted with the 3D model , we chose the best surgical procedure for liver resection, protecting the major blood vessels near hemangioma and retaining normal liver tissue as far as possible. Results The location, size and shape of hepatic hemangioma, vascular variation, and spatial relationship with intrahepatic vessel were shown factually by three-dimensional reconstruction. All the hemangiomas were preoperatively assessed to be resectable. The compliance rate for preoperative surgical planning to actual surgery was 100%. Under assistance of the 3D model during surgery , 14 patients received laparoscopic hepatectomy and 18 underwent hepatectomy. Pringle′s maneuver was applied in 18 patients , with blocking time of (15.32 ± 7.12) min and blood loss of (188.63 ± 66.37) mL. The postoperative complications included pleural effusion in 5 patients and incision infection in one patients. Conclusions Three-dimensional visualization technology for the individualized diagnosis and treatment of hepatic hemangioma helps reduce surgical trauma and incidence of postoperative complications.
