Objective To investigate the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress in lung ischemiareperfusion (I/R) injury in rats.Methods Fifty-six healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 250-320 g,were randomly divided into 2 groups using a random number table:sham operation group (group S,n=16) and I/R group (n=40).Lung I/R was induced by clamping the left hilum of lung for 60 min followed by reperfusion.Before ischemia (T0) and at 0,1,2 and 4 h (T4) of reperfusion,PaO2 and PaCO2 were recorded.The rats were sacrificed,and lungs were removed for examination of pathological changes.Wet/dry lung weight ratio (W/D ratio) was calculated.The expression of molecular chaperones of 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP78) and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) protein and mRNA was detected in lung tissues using Western blot and real-time PCR,respectively.Results Compared with group S,PaO2was significantly decreased,PaCO2 and W/D ratio were increased,and the expression of GRP78 and CHOP protein and mRNA was up-regulated during reperfusion,and the pathological changes of lungs were found in group I/R.With the prolongation of reperfusion,the pathological changes of lungs were gradually aggravated,and the expression of GRP78 and CHOP protein and mRNA was gradually up-regulated in group I/R.Conclusion Excessive endoplasmic reticulum stress may be one of the pathophysiological mechanisms of lung I/R injury in rats.

Objective To investigate the value of MR imaging in distinguishing adenomas from malignant tumors in gallbladder. Methods Clinical data and MR imaging features of 40 lesions in 37 patients with gallbladder adenomas (GA)confirmed by pathology were collected and reviewed retrospectively.Results The univariate analysis demonstrated that age (P =0.044),size (P =0.001), ratio of high-intensity signals on T2 WI (P =0.013),lobular margin (P <0.000 1),and tumor shapes (P =0.001)were statistically significantly different between adenomas and the malignancy.The Logistic regression analysis showed that only two parameters were significantly different for the prediction of malignant tumors of gallbladder,including lobular margin (P=0.002)and size (P=0.046).Further analysis with ROC curve showed that a threshold value of lesion diameter to distinguish the benign and malignancy could be at 1.59 cm. Conclusion Both lobular margin of GA and maximal diameter are independent factors in predicting the nature of GA,and the former exhibits more significant.Low ratio of high signal intensity in T2 WI and type circular shape are the contradictory factor for predic-ting adenocarcinoma of gallbladder.MRI is useful in the identification of patients with GA and gallbladder carcinoma developed from GA.

Objective To analyze the occurrence of insulin resistance ( IR ) and abnormal glucose metabolism in adolescent polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods PCOS group included 141 patients aged 15-19 years old, who were diagnosed as PCOS according to criteria by reference to the European Society of Reproduction and Embryology/American Society for Reproductive Medicine proposed in 2003, at Rotterdam; and 266 age-matched female students,with regular menstrual cycles and no family history of diabetes, were enrolled in control group. Fasting insulin(FINS),fasting plasma glucose(FPC) ,and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance ( HOMA-IR) were measured in control group. 73% percentile value of control group was set as physical upper limits of FINS and HOMA-IR. PCOS patients were divided into obese ( OB-PCOS) and non-obese (NOB-PCOS) groups, and oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT) were performed. Results According to 75% percentile value of control group,the physical upper limits of FINS and HOMA-IR were 13.13 mIU/ L and 2.69, respectively. FINS and HOMA-IR values in PCOS group were higher than those in control group [ (17.68±16. 13 vs 10.40±5. 33)mIU/L,2. 64±2.01 vs 2. 01 ±1. 61,both P<0.01]. FINS and HOMA-IR values in OB-PCOS group were higher than those in the NOB-PCOS group [ (22.04± 18.01 vs 13.06± 12. 60) mIU/L,4. 62±3. 87 vs 2.38±2.26,both P<0.01]. In PCOS group,FINS of 75 cases(53.19% )and HOMA-IR of 67 patients(47.52% ) exceeded the physical upper limits. In 79 OB-PCOS patients, FINS of 56 cases (70. 89% ) and HOMA-IR of 52 patients (65.82% ) exceeded the physical upper limits while in 62 NOB-PCOS patients there were 19(30.65% ) and 15 (24. 19% )patients. In PCOS group,2(1.42% ) patients were diagnosed diabetes mellitus,and both FINS and HOMA-IR of these two cases increased. Meanwhile, 12 cases(8.51% ) were impaired glucose tolerance(ICT) ,of whom 11 patients FINS and HOMA-IR increased. Conclusion Pathological IR is prevalent in adolescent PCOS, more severe and popular in obese-PCOS, a part of them with abnormal glucose metabolism.

The new cataloguing rules, RDA, have been implemented in NLM and more RDA bibliographic data can thus be accessed in domestic medical libraries when the Western documents are catalogued by offloading their bibliographic data.The differences in RDA and AACR2 were compared, the common modified fields and descrip-tive contents were described when the RDA bibliographic data were changed into AACR2 bibliographic data in order to provide certain reference for cataloguing of Western documents using the RDA bibliographic data.

Objective To exPlore the theraPeutic effect of cycloVirobuxine_D ( CVB_D) on heart failure by obserVing the influences of CVB_D on cardiac function,myocardial morPhology and structure in rats with heart failure. Methods The rat model of heart failure was established by ligating left anterior descending coronary artery,and then the rats were randomly diVided into 5 grouPs,Plus the sham grouP. EchocardiograPhy was used to assess cardiac function,including EF,LVSF,SV,HR,CO and so on. Myocardial tissue section was obtained. Change in the myocardial tissue was obserVed by HE staining. Myocardial ultra_structure was obserVed by using transmission electron microscoPe. Results As comPared with the model grouP,EF and LVSF were significantly increased in medium and high dose CVB_D grouPs (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01),SV was increased in low and medium dose CVB_D grouPs (P<0. 05),CO was increased in low,medium and high dose CVB_D grouPs (P<0. 05),LVIDs was decreased and LVPWs was increased in high dose CVB_D grouP (P<0. 05). Under light microscoPe,changes of myocardial structures were obserVed in different CVB_D dose grouPs: myocardial fiber gradually became tidy, striPes became clear, and contour became clear. The changes of myocardial ultra_structure were obserVed under transmission electron microscoPe: the myocardial fiber breakage was reduced and the number of mitochondria was increased,swelling degeneration was alleViated. Conclusion CVB_D significantly imProVed cardiac contraction and blood PumPing function of rats with heart failure, exerted mitigatiVe effect on damage of cardiac muscle fiber and mitochondria. It suggests that CVB_D may be effectiVe in the treatment of heart failure.

The molecular targeted therapy method using microRNAs(miRNAs)is gradually stepping into people′s vision. miRNAs affect colorectal cancer progress via abnormal expression in tumor cells or micro-environment. The high or low expressions of miRNAs in specific tissues probably have an impact on the expressions of oncogenes,tumor suppressor genes or other aspects including the surrounding environments,the metastases and the drug tolerance of tumors,thus contributing to curing the colorectal cancer. Nowadays, miRNA has entered the stage of animal experiments.
