ObjectiveTo observe the effect on repairing facial nerve injury of rabbits by neural stem cells and autologous fasia. Methods22 rabbits with transected facial nerve were divided into 2 groups randomly, control group (8 rabbits,15 sides totally), which transected facial nerve were wrapped by autologous fasia, and treament group (14 rabbits, 20 sides totally), which were wrapped by neural stem cells and autologous fasia. Six weeks after transplantation, neuro-electrophysiological test, immunohistochemical examination were done. The number and thickness of myelin in the re-connected area of transected facial nerve were observed. ResultsThe transplanted animals recovered much better than that in control group (P<0.05). Immunohistochemical examination showed a great deal of BrdU positive cells around the re-connected area of transected facial nerve. Immunohistochemical staining also found plenty of regenerative myelins in this area in the treatment group. While in control group, there were no BrdU positive cells and only a few of regenerative myelins in the same area. ConclusionTransplantation of neural stem cells combined with autologous fasia might become the new method to treat facial nerve injury.

Objective To master current operating situation of water-defluoridation-project and the level of fluoride in drinking water of Zhangjiakou city and provide a scientific basis for prevention and control of the disease.Methods Itemized survey of current operating situation of water defluoridation projects built in 2010 and before,and the source of fund situation in Zhangjiakou city was carried out.One source water and 2 terminal water samples of the projects in use were collected,respectively.Water fluoride were determined by Sanitary Standard for Drinking Water Testing Method (GB/T 5750.5-2006).Results A total of 386 water improvement projects to reduce fluoride were investigated,310 in good operation,accounting for 80.31％; 6 in intermittent use,accounting for 1.55％; 70 out of use,accounting for 18.14％.Water fluoride was surveyed in 316 water improvement projects to reduce fluoride,175 of the projects provided water with normal fluoride,accounting for 55.38％; 141 of the projects provided water with fluoride exceeded the standard,accounting for 44.62％.The total investment of 386 water defluoridation projects was 21.8682 million yuan,the investment of the state,the collective and the individual were 10.0780 million yuan,6.2104 million yuan and 5.5798 million yuan,accounted for 46.09％,28.40％,25.51％,respectively.Conclusions The current situation of the projects is very worrying in Zhangjiakou city.Further instensify the water improvement project in diseased areas,insist on sustainable water defluoridation strategy.

Background Retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) is a subtype of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD).There are currently very few studies on RAP.Objective This study was to explore the pathogenic mechanism of RAP in apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE-/-) mice with dyslipidemia.Methods Twenty-four 2-month-old SPF ApoE-/-mice were randomly divided into the high fat diet group and the normal diet group,and twelve 2-month-old C57BL/6 mice received the normal diet as controls.A diet with a higher content of fat was given for 4 consecutive months in the high fat diet group,and normal diet was given in the same way in the mice of the normal diet group.The mice were sacrificed at 6 months of age.The expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells,the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) in the outer plexiform layer (OPL),microvascular density (MVD) and microvascular area (MVA) in the OPL were examined by immunohistochemistry and semi-quantitatively by histopathology with the Mias 2000 Imaging Analyzer System.The expression of VEGF protein in the retina was examined by Western blot.Results The MVD in the retinal OPL were (20.67±3.20) and (19.50± 1.87),respectively,in the ApoE-/-mice of the high fat diet group and the normal diet group,which were significantly higher than that (12.50±1.87) of the C57BL/6 normal diet group (all at P＜0.01).MVA in the retinal OPL were (626.49± 120.99) μm2 and (514.06±88.83) μm2 in the ApoE-/-mice of the high fat diet group and the normal diet group,respectively,showing a significant increase in comparison with the (336.52±84.96) μm2 of the C57BL/6 normal diet group (P＜0.01).The staining area of VEGF in RPE cells was (21 048±1849) μm2 in the ApoE-/-mice of the high fat diet group,showing a significant increase in comparison with the (17 116±2023) μm2 of the C57BL/6 normal diet group.However,no significant difference was found in the staining area of VEGF between the ApoE-/-mice with normal diet group and the C57BL/6 normal diet group ([17 854±2967] μm2 vs.[17 116±2023] μm2) (P＞0.05).Significant elevation was also seen in the staining area of VEGFR-2 in the retinal OPL of the ApoE-/-mice of the high fat diet group (12 193±3806)μm2 and the ApoE-/-mice of the normal diet group (11 969± 3616)xm2 compared with C57BL/6 mice of the normal diet group (5387±2225)μm2(all at P＜0.01).The relative expression values (VEGF/β-actin) of VEGF in the retinas were (1.51 ±0.32) and (1.17±0.39) in the ApoE-/-mice of the high fat diet group and the normal diet group,respectively,showing a significant increase in comparison with (0.28±0.14) of the C57BL/6 normal diet group (P＜0.01).Conclusions The expression of VEGF and VEGFR-2 in the retinas increases in the ApoE-/-mouse,which leads to the enlargement of MVD and MVA in the retinal OPL and subsequent RAP occurrence.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of large dose mucosolvan combined variant flow rate continuous positive airway by nasal mask on neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(NRDS).Methods One hundred and fourteen newborns with NRDS were randomly divided into treatment group(58 cases) and control group(56 cases),on the base of same combined therapy,the cases in control group only underwent oxygen-absorbing by head set with the flow rate 4-6 L/min,and the cases in treatment group were given large dose mucosolvan(Ambroxol Hydrochloride) 30 mg/(kg?d) + 5%GS 20 mL,for two times and variant flow rate continuous positive airway by nasal mask(NCPAP),the parameter setting flow rate 6-8 L/min,FiO_2 0.4-0.6,pressure 5-8 cm H_2O.The clinical symptom and blood gas analysis after 12 and 48 hours were observed and compared the changes of pa(O_2),pa(CO_2),pa(O_2)/FiO_2 in two groups.Results The dyspnea and groan in 44 cases in the treatment group lessoned or vanished,pa(O_2) rised and pa(CO_2) lowered,the oxygenation index obviously increased,the cases with RDS grade Ⅰand gradeⅡ had better therapeutic effect,and the cases with RDS grade Ⅲ(X-ray)and Ⅳ had not manifest effect,the total effective rate was 75.8% in treatment group and 26.7% in control group.There were significant difference in therapeutic effect and oxygenation index between two groups.Conclusions Large dose mucosolvan(combi)-ning variant flow rate continuous positive airway by nasal mask can significantly improve the ventilation and oxygenation function and there are significant therapeutic effect in NRDS,especially in the NRDS grade Ⅰand gradeⅡ,the trachea cannula may be avoided and mechanical ventilation rate may be decreased if the therapeutic method can be used in earlier period.

Objective To investigate the effects of partial body weight supported treadmill training (BW- STT) on post-stroke depression (PSD) and on patients' quality of life.Methods Sixty patients with PSD were re- cruited and divided into a training group (n=30,male 17,female 13) and a control group (n=30,male 16,fe- male 14).All patients were treated with routine internal medication and rehabilitation.The patients of the training group also received BWSTT in addition to their routine treatment.All patients' neurological impairment was evaluated using the Modified Edinburgh-Scandinavian Stroke Scale (MESSS).The Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) was used for evaluating the degree of depression.The Fugl-Meyer scale and the Barthel index were used to assess ambula- tion and balance,and facility in the activities of daily living.All patients were assessed before and after the treat- ment.Results After four weeks of treatment,depression in the training group had improved significantly more than in the control group.Conclusion BWSTT intervention is very important for patients with PSD:it can reduce the degree of depression and improve the quality of life.
