In practice of forensic medicine, potential disease can be associated with fatal asphyxia in restraint position. Research has demonstrated that nitric oxide (NO) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) are plentifully distributed in skeletal muscle, contributing to the regulation of contractile and relaxation. In the current study, respiratory functions, indices of diaphragmatic biomechanical functions ex vivo, as well as NO levels in serum, the expressions of diaphragmatic inducible NOS (iNOS) mRNA, and the effects of L-NNA on contractility of the diaphragm were observed in sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) under the condition of restraint position. The results showed that in the CLP12-18h rats, respiratory dysfunctions; indices of diaphragmatic biomechanical functions (Pt, +dT/dt(max), -dT/dt(max), CT, Po, force over the full range of the force-frequency relationship and fatigue resistance) declined progressively; the NO level in serum, and iNOS mRNA expression in the diaphragm increased progressively; force increased significantly at all stimulation frequencies after L-NNA pre-incubation. Restraint position 1 h in CLP12 h rats resulted in severe respiratory dysfunctions after relative stable respiratory functions, almost all the indices of diaphragmatic biomechanical functions declined further, whereas little change took place in NO level in serum and diaphragmatic iNOS mRNA expression; and the effects of L-NNA were lack of statistical significance compared with those of CLP12 h, but differed from CLP18 h group. These results suggest that restraint position and sepsis act together in a synergistic manner to aggravate the great reduction of diaphragmatic contractility via, at least in part, the negative modulation of NO, which may contribute to the pathogenesis of positional asphyxia.

AIM: To observe the effect of Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation intravitreal bevacizumab in the treatment of neovascular glaucoma ( NVG) .
METHODS:Twenty-two cases (22 eyes) who presented with NVG were first treated with intravitreal bevacizumab 0. 1mL ( 2. 5mg ), then with Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation after regression of iris neovessels. Cases were followed - up for 6 - 36 ( mean 24 ) mo with observation on visual acuity, IOP control, regression of iris neovessels, and complications during or after surgery.
RESULTS: Iris neovessels was regressed in different degree after injection within 1wk in 22 eyes. At final follow-up, the IOP of 18 eyes were all less than 21mmHg without any drugs and of 3 eyes with 1-3 kinds of anti-glaucoma drugs after combined Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation. The IOP of one eye was controlled after cryotherapy. The mean IOP dropped from 45. 36 ±8.13mmHg preoperatively to 15. 59 ± 3. 21mmHg postoperatively. IOP reduction was statistically significance between preoperative and postoperative ( P<0. 05) at final follow-up. Visual acuity was improved in 9 eyes (41%) and was no changed in 13 eyes. No serious complications were observed during or after intravitreous bevacizumab injection and Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation.
CONCLUSION: Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation and intravitreal bevacizumab in the treatment of NVG is useful and safe. It improves the success rate of surgery and preserves visual function, furthermore its complications are less.

Objective To investigate the distribution and severity of cerebral artery stenosis and the prognosis in elderly patients with acute cerebral infarction using digital subtraction angiography (DSA). Methods The 432 elderly patients with acute cerebral ischemia infarction underwent DSA,and they were divided into two groups: elderly group (n= 320) and non-elderly group (n= 112). The characteristics of distribution and severity of cerebral artery stenosis, the relationship between artery stenosis and relative risk factors, and the prognosis of acute cerebral infarction were analyzed.Results In elderly group, 270 cases (84.3%) had intra- and extra- cranial artery stenosis, of which 98 patients (30.6%) with pure extracranial arterial stenosis, 132 patients (41.3%) with combined extra- and intra-cranial artery stenosis. They were both significantly higher than the corresponding data in non-elderly group [23 cases (20.5%) and 28 cases (25%), P<0.05 and 0.01]. The prevalences of moderate and severe cerebral artery stenosises were higher in elderly group than in nonelderly group [224 locations (52.1%) vs. 51 locations (40.8%), P<0. 05]. The number of patients with previous history of cerebrovascular disease was much more and the prognosis was much worse in elderly group than in non-elderly group (both P<0.05), Conclusions The elderly patients with cerebral infarction have severer cerebral artery stenosis, increased proportion of multivessel disease and poor prognosis. So it is very important to take aggressive treatment as soon as possible, and to make secondary prevention and effective rehabilitation so as to improve their prognosis.

Evaluation of the permeability mainly focuses on intestinal absorption in biopharmaceutics classification system (BCS). It is more complicated that the absorption and metabolism under multicomponent environment in biopharmaceutics classification system of Chinese materia medica (CMMBCS) compared with single component environment, which needs suitable mathematical models to be described. Therefore, with full consideration of existing single component mathematical algorithm combining with the characteristics of intestinal absorption and metabolism, we explored and designed a new mathematical algorithm of intestinal absorption and metabolism of multicomponent drug. Then we put forward a new coefficient, P (influence), the relative change rate of the single component's intestinal absorption and metabolism under multicomponent environment compared with single component environment, which described the influences of intestinal absorption and metabolism of the component under multicomponent environment. Moreover, P (influence) highlights the distinctive characteristics of multicomponent drug's intestinal absorption and metabolism, and lays the foundation for the construction of CMMBCS.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effects of Chailing Decoction (CD) on transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), renal cell apoptosis and proliferation in rats with chronic cyclosporine A nephropathy (CCN), and to explore its possible mechanism for inhibiting renal fibrosis.
METHODSThe CCN rat model was prepared using oral administration of cyclosporine A (CsA, 30 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)). Meanwhile, they were treated with CD (3 g x kg(-1) x d(-1)) by gastrogavage. The serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (SCr), and creatinine clearance rate (CCr) were measured by the end of the fourth week of the experiment. The kidneys were taken out on the next day. The degree of renal fibrosis was detected using Masson staining. The protein and gene expressions of TGF-beta1, and CTGF were observed using immunohistochemical assay and RT-PCR. The renal cell apoptosis rate and the proliferation index were detected by flow cytometry.
RESULTSCompared with the control group (BUN: 6.123 +/- 0.588 mmol/L; SCr: 75.654 +/- 8.196 micromol/L; CCr: 0.539 +/- 0.169 mL/min), the renal function of the model group (BUN: 11.600 +/- 1.437 mmol/L; SCr: 101.985 +/- 10.809 micromol/L; CCr: 0.272 +/- 0.060 mL/min) obviously declined (P < 0.01). The collagen deposition in the renal interstitial area significantly increased. The protein and mRNA expressions of TGF-beta1, and CTGF in the tubular epithelial cells and the mesenchymal cells were significantly enhanced (P < 0.01). The cell proliferation index and the apoptosis rate both increased, but the ratio of apoptosis to proliferation (0.317 +/- 0.059) decreased more than that in the control group (0.680 +/- 0.150, P < 0.01). After treatment by CD, the renal function (BUN: 7.340 +/- 0.857; SCr: 84.923 +/- 10.627; CCr: 0.405 +/- 0.081) was significantly enhanced (P < 0.05, P < 0.01), the collagen deposition decreased, the high protein and mRNA expressions of TGF-beta1 and CTGF were down-regulated (P < 0.01), the ratio of apoptosis to proliferation increased (0.650 +/- 0.092, P<0. 01).
CONCLUSIONCD could improve the renal function of CCN model rats, inhibit the expressions of TGF-beta1 and CTGF, and recover the balance between the renal cell apoptosis and proliferation by inducing cell apoptosis and inhibiting cell proliferation, thus delaying the renal fibrosis process.

Objective To explore the feasibility,advantages and disadvantages of combined trans- gastric and transcolonic routes for NOTES.Methods A female swine was used in this study.Transgastric entrance was the first,followed by transeolonie entrance.A dual-channel endoscope was inserted through the porcine mouth into the gastric cavity and penetrated into the peritoneal cavity through the puncture and bal- loon dilatation of the gastric wall.Then under direct visualization through the transgastric approach,the other endoseope was advanced into the peritoneum.Using the two endoscopes inside the peritoneal cavity,collabo- rative peritoneoseopy was performed by the two endoscopists.After the examination the incisions in the stom- ach and the colon wall were closed with Endoclips.The animal was sacrificed for post-mortem examination with particular attention to the entrance sites and presence of any complications related to the access or to ma- nipulations inside the peritoneal cavity.Results No hemorrhage oecurred during the puneture and balloon dilatation or bow-knife cutting of the gastric wall or the eolonic wall.The liver was damaged while a needle knife penetrated the gastric wall.On the contrary,no organs were damaged during the needle knife penetra- ted the eolonic wall under direet visualization through the transgastric approach.It was difficult to find the gallbladder or the oviduct with a"single arm",but it was easy to see them with the double routes.It was easier to close the colonic incision than to close the gastrie wall with Endoclips.Conclusion Combined transgastric and transcolonic route for NOTES is feasible and it seems to be easier to show a target compared with a single route.
