Objective To investigate the effect of comprehensive intervention therapy of losing weight on leptin and blood lipid,blood glucose,insulin in adolescent girl students with simple obesity.Methods Simple obesity adolescent girl students were accepted the losing weight therapy composed of the aerobic exercise,reasonable diet,behavior modification and medical supervision for 10 months.Then the changes of blood leptin and correlated hormone were examined before test,during test and after test,respectively.Results The leptin and correlated hormone levels were significantly higher in obesity subjects than that in normal subjects,and the levels of serum leptin was positively correlated with BMI and insulin.The blood leptin and blood lipid,blood glucose,insulin were decreased obviously after experimental losing weight.Conclusion Comprehensive intervention therapy of losing weight can significantly lose weight,leptin and insulin,so it plays an important role in modifying the metabolism disorder

Objective In order to offer a noninvasive and objective examination method for assessing the clinical diagnosis and eurative criterion of concussion patients, the patients color three - dimensional transcranial doppler( 3D - TCD) characteristic at deferent phases, parameter and clincal manifestation were studied Method Parameter of Median Cerebral Artery(MCA), Base Artery(BA), the average peak forwand velocity of cerebral blood flow, train figure were tested by 3D - TCD within 24 hours, 3 - 6 days and at the end of treatment, respectively. The results were compared with clinical diagnoses and curative criterion. Result Among 135 patients who had clinically diagnosed concussion, agreeable diagnoses 101 cases, basically agreeable diagnooses 12 cases, disagreeable diagnosis 22 cases(16. 2%) .At the end of treatment, according to clinical determination 96 cases(71.1%) were cured, 39 cases(28.9%) were improved. Wave train character, figure and diagnoses prameter of cerebral spasm caused by concussion were suggested Conclusion To be one of the diagnostic bases and curative criterion, 3D- TC D technology is performable. Meanwhile, it is a new testing objective technique for assessing curative and determining prognosis.

OBJECTIVERNA interference was applied to knockdown the Dhcr7 gene in mouse embryonic palatal shelves to facilitate understanding of the function of Dhcr7 gene variants in the fusion of palatal shelves.

METHODSThe pAdTrack-CMV-siDhcr7 was constructed using the specific siRNA sequence of Dhcr7 from C57BL/6J mouse. The pAdTrack-CMV- siDhcr7 of positive clones was reconstructed in vitro, and the recombinant adenovirus pAdEasy-1-siDhcr7 of kanamycin resistance was screened. The adenovirus vector DNA was then prepared for transfecting the embryonic palatal shelves. Thirty pairs of embryonic palatal shelves at 13.5 d gestational age were harvested and then randomly divided into the following three groups: normal control group (n = 10), which included palatal shelves inculture medium without cholesterol; blank adenovirus control group (n = 10), which included palatal shelves in culture medium without cholesterol and blank adenovirus; and experimental group (n = 10), which included palatal shelves in culture medium without cholesterol and adenovirus encoding Dhcr7 siRNA. At 48 h after in vitro cultivation, the mRNA and protein of the palatal shelves were obtained for scanning electron microscopy (SEM), reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and Western blot analyses.

RESULTSSEM showed that the palatal shelves of the normal control and blank adenovirus control groups fused and formed continuous palates, whereas those of the experimental group was almost undeveloped but exhibited large gaps between the two palatal shelves. RT-PCR and Western blot analyses showed that the mRNA and protein of Dhcr7 in the experimental group decreased compared with those in the normal control group with a significant difference (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONResults indicate that Dhcr7 gene silencing affects the fusion of palatal shelves. Thus, Dhcr7 gene may serve a function in the normal development of palates.

Objective: To seek the optimal acupuncture time for primary dysmenorrhea and provide clinical basis for optimal acupuncture treatment protocol. Methods:A total of 90 eligible cases were randomly allocated into three groups, 30 cases in each group. Points Guanyuan (CV 4), bilateral Zusanli (ST 36) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6) were selected for patients in all three groups, with a different treatment duration: 15 min in group A, 30 min in group B and 45 min in group C. Then the clinical efficacy in each group was evaluated by pain symptom scoring. Results:As for the pain symptom scores, there were statistically significant intra-group differences between before and after treatment in three groups (allP<0.05); coupled with statistically significant inter-group differences between group B and the other two groups (bothP<0.05). As for clinical efficacy, there were statistical differences between group B and the other two groups (bothP<0.05), indicating that 30 min of acupuncture is the optimal duration in the treatment of dysmenorrhea. Conclusion:With the same needling manipulation, 30 min of acupuncture treatment achieves a better efficacy for primary dysmenorrhea.

Objective To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on acute kidney injury after cardiac valve replacement with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods One hundred patients of both sexes with rheumatic heart disease,aged 32-64 yr,weighing 46-75 kg,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ (New York Heart Association class Ⅱ or Ⅲ),scheduled for elective cardiac valve replacement with CPB,were divided into 2 groups (n =50 each) using a random number table:control group (group C) and dexmedetomidine group (group D).Dexmedetomidine was intravenously infused in a loading dose of 1 μg/kg over 10 min before induction of anesthesia followed by an infusion of 0.4 μg · kg-1 · h-1 until 24 h after operation in group D,while the equal volume of normal saline was given in group C.The urine output per hour during the postoperative 48 h period was recorded.At 6,12,24,36 and 48 h after operation,blood samples were collected from the median cubital vein for determination of serum creatinine levels.The development and severity of acute kidney injury were determined according to the urine output and serum creatinine level.Results Compared with group C,the incidence and severity of acute kidney injury were significantly decreased in the postoperative 48 h period in group D (P＜0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine infused in a loading dose of 1 μg/kg over 10 min before induction of anesthesia followed by an infusion of 0.4 μg · kg-1 · h-1 until 24 h after operation can reduce the development and severity of acute kidney injury after cardiac valve replacement with CPB in patients.

Diseases of glucose and lipid metabolism disorder,presented rather complicated pathological mechanism,often with clinical pattern of multiple concurrent diseases.Therefore,the traditional single-disease based on treatment methods need improving.In view of plenty of clinical practice,theatrical and fundamental researches,the pathological mechanisms of some chronic disorders,such as hyperlipidemia,nonalcoholic fatty liver disease,type 2 diabetes,hypertension,atherosclerosis and severe cardiovascular complications,resulted from the impairment in the metabolism of glucose and lipid were investigated using the method of integrated Chinese and western medicine.Overall,the features of these diseases and their common characteristics were discovered,and accordingly we defined the new concept of glucolipid metabolic disease (GLMD) and put forward the concept of pivot liver of metabolic regulation system.In addition,we developed the therapeutic strategy of modulating liver,starting pivot and cleaning turbidity,for the comprehensive and integrated treatment and prevention of these diseases.The theory of GLMD shared the critical characteristics with precision medicine,taking its own specialty.Finally,the content and approaches for the research of GLMD were proposed,and some essential and core fields in the precision medical research for GLMD were profoundly analyzed and prospected.
