This paper studied the relationship between apolipoprotein E isoforms and hyperlipidemia among 92 cases of diabetes mellitus, 174 cases with impaired glucose tolerance and 124 sex-age-matched controls. The results demonstrated that the patients with abnormal glucose tolerance had higher frequency of E2/3 isoforms and lower frequency of E, / , in com parison with controls. Hyperlipoproteinemia were mainly related to hyperglycemia but the Apo E isoforms which ex pressed different alleles also associated with hyperlipoproteinemia.

Background Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a common complication of diabetic mellitus,but its pathogenesis is still unclear.Adiponectin may restrain inflammatory reaction and reduce adhesion of vascular endothelial cell to influence diabetic microangiopathy.Relation between adiponectin and nitric oxide synthase (NOS)is less reported.Objective This study was to observe the effect of adiponectin on the expression of NOS in the retinas of diabetic rats.Methods Forty 8-10 weeks Sprague-Dawley (SD) female rats were collected.The rats were randomized into the normal control group (10 rats),adiponectin group (15 rats) and diabetic model control group (15 rats) using the random number table method.Tetraoxypyrimidine was intraperitoneally injected to establish the diabetic model in the rats of the adiponectin group and diabetic model control group,and 10 μg/kg of adiponectin was then injected into the rats of the adiponectin group.Western blot was used to detect the expression of the adiponectin protein in the rat retinas,and the expression of NOS in rat retina was located by immunochemistry.The use of the animals complied with the Regulations for the Administration of Affairs Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission.Results The relative amount of adiponectin (adiponectin/β-actin)in the retinas was 0.85 ± 0.21,0.79 ± 0.17 and 0.42 ± 0.08,respectively,in the normal control group,adiponectin group and diabetic model control group,with significant differences among the 3 groups (F =4.236,P =0.000).The adiponectin/β-actin ratio in the retinas of the diabetic model control group was significantly declined in comparison with the normal control group and adiponectin group (q =6.615,P =0.000 ; q =6.026,P =0.000).The NOS levels (A value) in the retinas were 0.244 ± 0.035,0.262 ± 0.032 and 0.367 ± 0.066,respectively,in the normal control group,adiponectin group and diabetic model control group,showing a significant difference among them (F =3.752,P =0.001).The A value of NOS in the diabetic model control group was significantly increased in comparison with the normal control group and adiponectin group (q =3.488,P =0.002 ; q =3.079,P =0.005).NOS expression was localized to the inner nuclear layer and retinal ganglion cell layer.Conclusions Adiponectin reduces NO content in diabetic rat retinas by regulating NOS expression.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of children with epilepsy in the people's hospital of Guizhou province.Methods The clinical data of 860 children ( below 14 years old ) with epilepsy diagnosed by the people's hospital of Guizhou province was collected.After followed-by for 1 year, the curative effect was evaluated according to the change of seizure frequency after treatment.And the results were statistically analyzed.Results The clinical characteristics of children in the people's hospital of Guizhou province showed main part of children were 1-3 years old, and most of them were male;neonatal asphyxia and fetal distress were the leading perinatal causes in children with epilepsy, 5.26%children had family history of epilepsy.The result showed that 57.23% children came from rural areas, and the related indexes which had significant differences in children age, history of birth, birth method, fetal distress function, elderly primiparous and pregnancy medication history between rural and city children ( P<0.05 -0.01).Poor compliance of therapy was the risk factor of prognosis in children with epilepsy (OR=0.06, 95%CI:0.023-0.152, P<0.01).Conclusions Children in the people's hospital of Guizhou province are mainly 1 -3 years old, and most of them were male and rural.Good medication compliance is the key factor to affect the prognosis.Improvement of rural production conditions and enhanced health education during pregnancy may reduce the incidence of rural children with epilepsy.

Complexity algorithm and wavelet package transform are discussed in this paper. To improve the classification ability of complexity algorithm in motion pattern recognition, it's used together with wavelet package transform. This method shows a better performance than a single complexity algorithm.

Objective To compare the therapeutic effects of 1470nm diode laser vaporization prostatectomy and bipolar transurethral plasmakinetic prostatectomy (TUPKP) for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods From June 2015-February 2016 a total of 95 patients diagnosed with BPH were randomly divided into 2 group:52 patients were treated with TUPKP while 43 patients with 1470 diode laser.All patients were followed up with mean operative time,intra-operative blood loss,postoperative hospital stay,postoperative catheterization time,postoperative complications,international prostate symptom score (IPSS),score of life quality (QoL),maximum flow rate (Qmax),post-void residual (PVR) before and after surgery.Results Compared with data of preoperation,postoperative IPSS,QoL,Qmax,PVR in 6 months revealed significant improvement in both of two groups.IPSS of TUPKP group and 1470 group respectively dropped to 6.3 ± 2.6 and 6.7 ± 2.4.In TUPKP group,PVR reduced to 23.1 ± 20.9ml and in 1470 group decreased to 24.3 ± 19.9ml.While Qmax increased to 18.5 ± 3.1 ml/s and 18.7 ± 2.8ml/s respectively in TUPKP and 1470 group.In TUPKP group,operation time were 60.1 ± 14.9min,significantly less than that in 1470 group of 69.3 ± 12.9min (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with catheterization time in 1470 group of 33.9 ± 9.4h,the time in TUPKP group of 73.9 ± 37.6h was shorter with significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).While Curative effect of two groups of showed no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The clinical curative effect of two operation methods for patients with BPH showed no significant difference.1470 group had longer operation time,while TUPKP group had less intraoperative bleeding and postoperative recovery.

Objective To investigate the damage to the retinal cells and apoptosis of retinal cells of rats after ischemia-reperfusion insult. Methods The retinal ischemia-reperfusion model was developed by increasing intraocular pressure to 109 725 mm Hg in rat eyes. Morphological changes of the rat eyes were observed by means of routine histopathology with HE staining. Apoptosis of the retina was assayed by both DNA fragmentation gel-electrophoresis and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate-biotin nick end labelling (TUNEL). Results Compared with the normal control, no histopathological changes were revealed in the rat retinas 30 min after the ischemia and then reperfued for 24 h or 48 h. Retinal ganglion cell layer (RGL) and inner plaxiform layer (IPL) of the retina were observed, however, to become significantly thinner 60 min after the ischemia and then reperfued for 24 h or 48 h. Together with the pathological changes DNA ladder pattern was detected in the same group of the rats. Further, immunochemical stain of the eye demonstrated that TUNEL positive cells were localized in RGL and IPL of the retina. Conclusion Ischemia-reperfusion insult of the eye may remarkably damage the retina of the rat eye. The damage to the retinal cells is mainly localized within RGL and IPL and apoptosis is the important mechanism of the retinal disorder.

AIM: To observe the effects of ?-MSH on the expression of CD14 and TLR4 mRNA in mou se peritoneal macrophages induced by LPS and explore the mechanisms of ?-MSH ag ainst LPS. METHODS: BALB/C mouse peritoneal macrophages were cultured in the presence of LPS or LPS plus ?-MSH, and the expressions of CD14 and TLR4 mRNA were detected with the m ethod of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). RESULTS: It was found that native murine macrophages o nly expressed a small amount of CD14 and TLR4 mRNA. Both CD14 and TLR4 mRNA expr ession to LPS in mouse macrophages increased significantly than those of contro l group at 6 h and maintained high level until 24 h when they reached to the pea k. Then the expression of CD14 mRNA backed to the normal gene expression baselin e, while TLR4 mRNA had excessive expression at 48 h. In presence of LPS and ?- MSH, the expression of CD14 and TLR4 mRNA decreased remarkably than those of L PS group (P0.05). Only when the dose s of ?-MSH attained to 1, 10 or 100 nmol/L,?-MSH could affect LPS-stimulated e xpression of CD14 and TLR4 mRNA (P0.05). CONCLUSION: These studies suggest that effects of ?-MSH against LPS are associated with its suppressing the critical receptor (CD14 and TLR4) expression of the LPS signal transduction and inhibiting the activation of macrophages.

In order to investigate the efficiency of a new quantitative head-band formed ocular compressor to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP), ocular compression by this new reducer with 40 mmHg for 10 min was performed on 87 cataractous eyes of 78 cases. The changes of IOP (87 eyes) and anterior chamber depth (ACD) were observed. There was a significant decrease of IOP and increase of ACD within 30 min after decompression (P < 0.001). The mean decrease of IOP was 5.62 +/- 2.41 mmHg and the mean increase of ACD was 0.18 +/- 0.09 mm within 5 min after decompression. The IOP 5 min after decompression had no significant difference with that 10 min after decompression (P > 0.05). IOP below 10 mmHg could last for about 15 min. This apparatus had been successfully applied to 80 eyes for extracapsular cataract extraction. It was suggested that this device had the advantages of safety, accurate quantification, reliable effect, casually adjusting pressure according to various demands and time-saving.
