Objective To explore whether adiponectin activates AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK) via LKB1 pathway or not in skeletal muscle and liver tissues.Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats ( n =28 ) were divided into normal control diet( NC,n =15 ) and high-fat diet( HF,n =13 ) groups.After 16 weeks feeding,fasting blood free fatty acids( FFA ),triglyceride( TG ),total cholesterol( TC ),fasting plasma glucose( FPG ),fasting insulin(FINS),and adiponectin were determined.The protein levels of AMPKα,phosphorylated AMPKα ( p-AMPK ),and LKB1 in the skeletal muscle and liver tissues were analyzed with Western blot.Cultured primary skeletal muscle cells and hepatic cells were incubated with aditonectin and radicicol.The expression of AMPKα,p-AMPKα,and LKB1 inthese cells were analyzed with immunofluorescence method.Results Compared with NC group,body weight,FFA,TG,FPG,and FINS in rats of HF group were significantly higher( all P<0.05 ) while serum adiponeetin level was lower( P<0.05 ).The levels of AMPKα phosphorylation and LKB1 expression in the skeletal muscle and liver tissues of HF group were lower than those in NC group. In primary skeletal muscle cells and hepatic cells,adiponectin significantly increased the levels of AMPKα phosphorylation and LKB1 expression ( all P< 0.05 ),which were decreased by radicicol ( P<0.05 ).Conclusion Adiponectin may activate AMPK via LKB1 pathway in skeletal muscle and liver tissues of rats.

Objective To study the characteristics of the hand motor cortex in ataxia patients during active and passive finger-to-thumb opposition movements using bold oxygenation level dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD-fMRI). Methods Ten right-handed healthy volunteers and 16 ataxia patients with motor cortex lesions were selected, and whole-brain BOLD-fMRI examinations were made while the subjects were performing the active and passive movements. Activated volume and intensity were recorded from the corresponding motor cortex and analyzed quantitatively. Meanwhile, the patients' coordination was evaluated using the international cooperative ataxia rating scale (ICARS). Results During passive movement of the ataxia patient's affected hands, the ipsilateral supplementary motor area (SMA) activated volume was larger than that during normal ipsilateral hand movement, and the activation intensity was also higher than that in the healthy controls. The ipsilateral cerebellum activated volume and intensity were significantly lower than those in the control group, and the frequency of appearance of the cerebellum was also less. The patients' activated volume and intensity in the ipsilateral cerebellum showed no correlation with ICARS scores. Conclusions When the ataxia patients' affected side cerebellum was dysfunctional, the ipsilateral SMA could compensate for the weak cerebellum function. The ICARS does not reflect cerebellum function.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate sodium intake via drug used by hypertensive inpatients during hospitalization. METH-ODS:290 inpatients with hypertension were collected from vasculocardiology department of our hospital between Jan. and Oct. 2013. The types of sodium-containing drugs and sodium-intake during hospitalization were analyzed statistically. RESULTS:275 pa-tients with hypertension were prescribed 38 sodium-containing drugs(94.8%);82.7% were administered by iv gtt with a average drug treatment course of 6.7 days(average hospitalization days of 6.8 days). Solvent containing sodium such as 0.9% Sodium chlo-ride injection and Creatine phosphate sodium for injection were the most sodium donors. 43.3% patients’sodium intake exceeded upper limit of 2 g/day recommended by WHO. CONCLUSIONS:Hypertensive inpatients are prescribed too much sodium-contain-ing drugs,and less intravenous solutions and less adjuvant medicines should be took to decrease sodium intake. Only when prospec-tive benefit are greater than risk,the patients can be prescribed sodium-containing drug prescription.At the same time,manufacturers should annotate the content of sodium in package inserts,which is convenient for physicians to choose drugs.

Objective Retrospectively evaluate the effect of Z-axis tube-current modulation technique with desired noise level to improve image quality (image noise level) and decrease radiation doses of MSCT (16-slice CT) in chest scanning. Methods Consecutive two hundred patients whose CT scan projection radiographs showed no significant abnormal were randomly divided into two groups by the examination order: Z-axis tube-current modulation (ZTCM) group (odd number, test group) and constant tube-current (CTC) group (even number, contrast group). The desired noise level of ZTCM group was 10HU and the machine automatically set the dynamic tube-current in scanning according to attenuated information of chest acquired in scan projection radiographs, the tubo-current of CTC group was set at 200mA, while the other scan parameters remained totally the same. The maximum tube-current value,CTDIvol, DLP and the tube-current of the slice at the maximum breast level of female patients were recorded respectively. The noise of image at upper lung, aorta arch, left atrium and bottom lung level were measured and compared. The qualities of Images were classified in three levels (excellent, good, poor) with double blind method. Results The mean value of maximum mA, CTDIvol, DLP and mA of the slice at the maximum breast level of ZTCM group were (178.5±125.6) mA, (10.5±3.8) mGy, (231.6±24.3)mGy/cm and (116.0±22.5) mA, those of CTC were 200.0 mA, 12.8 mGy, (274.7±18.4)mGy/cm and 200.0 mA, ZTCM group decreased by 10.8%, 19.9%, 15.7% and 42.0%,respectively, as compared with CTC group. The image quality at upper lung and bottom lung level in ZTCM group was improved significantly (P < 0.05) and the cases of excellent images in ZTCM group was significantly higher than that of CTC group (P < 0.05). Conclusion ZTCM technique not only contributes to more rational distribution of radiation doses but also realizes individuation, decreases the total radiation doses and improves image quality in chest CT scanning. It is valuable and promising in chest CT scan.
