Lesion was made individually to the verious cortical areas in 14 adult cats.Thecorticofugal fibers terminating into vestibular nuclei were traced in sections by meansof modified Nauta silver staining method.The majority of cortical efferents which terminated to the vestibular nuclei deri-ved from somato-sensory area Ⅰ.A few fibers originated from the cortical motorareas,and some fibers derived from vestibular area and somatosensory area Ⅱ.Thefibers originated from the visual and auditory areas were not observed.The corticovestibular fibers descended within the pyramidal tract.These fibersleft pyramidal tract at the level of pons.Then,most of them reached to the vesti-bular nuclei ipsilaterally,and others reached bilaterally.Terminal degeneration was present throughout the whole extent of the vestibularnuclei.The total number of preterminal degenerating fibers in the nuclei was small.The anatomical and functional significance of our findings are discussed.

Objective To comprehensively know clinical pathological change of recurrent anterior dislocation of shoulder joint by arthroscopy. Methods 52 patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation were inspected by arthroscopy in our institute, 38 cases were male, 14 cases were female; the mean age were 24.7, from 16 to 49 years old. 2 epilepsy patients were excluded, the other 50 cases were divided into two groups, the first group included 32 shoulder dislocated patients accompanied with shoulder hyper-laxity. The other group included 18 purely traumatic shoulder dislocated patients. All patients were explored by arthroscopy and all pathological changes were recorded and the difference of pathological change between the two groups were contrasted. Results 51 cases showed anterior-inferior labrum injury, 50 cases showed Hill-Sachs injury, 32 cases showed biceps-tendon inflammation or injury, 30 cases showed bone or cartilage injury of anterior-inferior glenoid, 29 cases showed SLAP injury, 7 cases showed rotator cuff injury. Anterior-inferior labrum injury: labrum abraded disappear was more occurred in pure traumatic group(P=0.055) and ALPSA injury was more in hyper-laxity group (59.4% to 38.9%, P=0.164). Bone or cartilage injury of anterior-inferior glenoid were more occurred in purely traumatic group(P=0.083, P=0.052). Hill-Sachs injury was more superficial or only cartilage injury in hyper-laxity group but wider and deeper in purely traumatic group. Conclusion The general pathological changes of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation sucessively are: anterior-inferior labrum injury, Hill-Sachs injury, biceps-tendon inflammation or injury, bone or cartilage injury of anterior-inferior glenoid, SLAP injury and rotator cuff injury. The pathological changes of the hyper-laxity group were lighter than purely traumatic group.

Objectives: To research the effects of recombinant human growth hormone(rhGH) with total parenteral nutrition(TPN) on the old patients following abdominal surgery. Methods: 26 old patients receiving TPN after major abdominal surgery were selected and distributed to study group(rhGH+TPN, n =13) and control group(TPN only, n =13).For 7 days after operation, rhGH (8 U/d) or normal saline(in control group) were used. The patients' weight, serum albumin, right hand grip, sleep time and the time of incision cicatrized were determined. Results: The increase of weight, level of plasma albumin, grip power of right hand and sleep time were improved more in study group than those in control group. The incision cicatrized time was also shortened in study group. Conclusions: Growth hormone can promote protein synthesis, accelerate incision healing and reduce the postoperative fatigue syndrome.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of melatonin on the proliferation activity of murine foregastic carcinomac ( MFC) cells via melatonin membrane receptors MT 2 and its relationship with the signaling pathways of mitogen-activated protein kinases ( MAPKs), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase ( PI3K)-Akt.Methods Using siRNA technology to silence MT2 expression, we examined the ability of melatonin to inhibit the proliferation activity of MFC cells and its influence on the phosphorylation of ERK 1/2 and Akt.Results We found two interesting effects of SiRNA-mediated silencing of MT2 expression.Firstly, it significantly antagonized the inhibitory effect of melatonin on the proliferation activity of MFC cells .Secondly , it partially blocked the inhibitory effect of melatonin on the phosphorylation of ERK 1/2 and Akt.Conclusion Our results suggest that melatonin can inhibit the phosphorylation of ERK 1/2 and Akt via MT2 receptors , thereby inhibiting the proliferation of gastric cancer cells .

To compare the effects of laparoscopic total or subtotal hysterectomy and myomectomy on ovarian reserve by measuring the serum level of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH).A total of 96 patients with uterine fibroids underwent total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH group,n =32),laparoscopic subtotal hysterectomy (LSH group,n =31) and laparoscopic myomectomy (LM group,n =33).Changes in ovarian reserve were examined by measuring the level of AMH pre-operation and at 1 and 4 months post-operation.No significant differences existed in AMH in LM group[(1.42 ±0.65),(1.31 ±0.53) & (1.33 ±0.61) μg/L,P ＞ 0.05].The levels of AMH in both groups were significantly lower than those at pre-operation [(1.17 ± 0.11),(1.01 ±0.10),(0.48±0.54) & (1.18±0.93),(0.45 ±0.39),(0.14±0.0) μg/L,P＜0.001].The mean percentage decrease in AMH was lower in TLH group than that in LSH group at 4-month follow-up [(-37.4 ± 37.6) ％ vs.(-27.0 ± 23.0) ％,P =0.017].The results showed that LM had no effect on ovarian reserve.Both LSH and TLH had adverse effects on ovarian reserve and TLH was more marked.

Objective:To compare 3 maxillofacial trauma scoring systems in mandible fracture grading.Methods:Maxillofacial Injury Severity Score(MISS),Maxillofacial Injury Severity Score(MFISS),Mandible Injury Severity Score(S5)were used in the analysis of mandible fracture severity in 313 cases with mandible fractures.The results were statistically analyzed.Results:S5 score showed higher correlation with operation time,operation charge and hospitalization expenses than MFISS and MISS,and it could distinguish single and multiple mandible fractures effectively.It was also a significant factor affecting the cost of hospitalization.Conclusion:The Mandible Injury Severity Score was more suitable for the scoring of mandible fracture.

Objective: To explore the effects of ranitidine on pharmacokinetics of rhein in rats after oral administration of Dachengqi Decoction (DCQD), a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine. Methods: Twelve male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into DCQD group and DCQD plus ranitidine group, and were orally administered with DCQD at a dose of 10 g/kg or DCQD (10 g/kg) combined with ranitidine (150 mg/kg), respectively. Blood samples were gathered after a series of time intervals. Metabolism of rhein was determined with a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with internal standard of 1, 8-dihydroxyanthraquinone and the data were analyzed with DAS 2.1 program. The pharmacokinetic parameters were compared between the two groups. Results: The pharmacokinetic parameters of rhein in the DCQD group, including peak concentration (C(max)), area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC), distribution phase half-life (t(1/2alpha)), elimination rate constant (K(10)) and central to peripheral transfer rate constant (K(12)), were significantly different to those in the DCQD plus ranitidine group (P<0.05, P<0.01). There were no significant differences in the other parameters between the two groups. Conclusion: Ranitidine can influence the pharmacokinetics of rhein in rats after oral administration of DCQD.

Objective To investigate whether antiseptic central venous catheters (CVC) modified with chlorhexidine acetate and silver sulfadiazine can be beneficial in reducing bacterial colonization and catheter-related infection. Methods Prospective controlled non-blinded randomized clinical trial was conducted. Seventy adult inpatients with CVC from intensive care unit of General Hospital of Chinese People's Armed Police Force during June 2007-June 2009 were enrolled. Their baseline characteristics, APACHE Ⅱ score and therapeutic interventions were comparable. Patients were randomly received either an antiseptic CVC ( antiseptic group, n = 28) or a standard two-lumen CVC ( control group, n = 42 ). Microbiological evaluation was done after CVC removal. A catheter bacterial colonization ( CBC) was considered if bacterial growth of > 15 CFU was found by semi-quantitative roll-plate technique from a proximal or distal catheter segment. A catheter-related infection ( CRI) was defined as a colonized catheter with local signs of inflammation. A catheter-related bloodstream infection ( CR-BSI) was defined as a colonized catheter with isolation of the same organism from the patient' s blood with accompanying clinical signs of infection. SPSS 11.5 software was used for statistical analysis. Kaplan Meier curve was used to evaluate the association between CVC retention time and bacterial colonization or infection, and Log-rank test was performed to compare between the groups. Results CVC was removed from 3.6% (1/28) patients of antiseptic group and 21.4% (9/42) patients of control group because of infection (x2 = 5. 143, P <0. 05). Colonization of CVC was observed in 7. 1% (2/28) patients from antiseptic group and 35. 7% ( 15/42) from control group (x2 =7.458, P<0.01). CBC or CRI was not observed in antiseptic group until day 19, while CRI occurred at day 6 in the control group. CVC colonization and infection were developed in 31.4% and 14. 3% patients of antiseptic group during day 14-day 28 respectively, while the rates in the control group were 90% and 70% ( u = 27.5 and 14.31, P < 0.01). Conclusions Antiseptic CVC modified with chlorhexidine acetate and silver sulfadiazine can significantly lower the risks of CBC and CRI. But more than 50% patients would develop infection when colonization occured, no matter patients receive standard or antiseptic CVC. After CVCs have been inserted for > 2 weeks, the colonization and infection will increase significantly in both standard or antiseptic CVC, so to shorten the insertion time is an effective measure to decrease the CVC-related infection.
