Objective To investigate the relationship of D-dimer(DD) and fibrinogen levels in blood plasma and diabetic nephropathy(DN).Methods According to the results of urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER), 98 cases of type 2 diabetas were divided into simple diabetic mellitus ( SDM), early diabetic nephropathy ( EDN) and clinical diabetic nephropathy (CDN); other 45 healthy persons were employed as control. Plasma levels of DD and the fibrinogen of all groups were examined.Results There was significant difference of DD and fibrinogen levels in all groups as compared with control group (P

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of biexponential model of DWI in nontypical hippocampal sclerosis (HS) of the youth.Methods DWI with multiple b values were performed on 75 youths with right temporal lobe epilepsy and 20 healthy youths(control group).There were no abnormalities in hippocampus on conventional MRI.11 of 75 patients were proved right HS by surgery and pathology (HS group).Compare the volume of the right hippocampus and their D,D? and f values in HS group and control group.Results There were statistical differences in D and f values between HS group and control group (Z=-3.08,Z=-2.23,P<0.05). There were no statistical differences in the volume of hippocampus and D? values between two groups (Z=1.77,Z=-0.19,P>0.05). Conclusion When HS does not have typical appearances on conventional MRI,D and f values can provide help from diffusion and the perfusion of microcirculation aspects.

Lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia is of great prevalence among ageing males,and it can markedly affect patients' quality of life.Personalized drug therapy according to genetic characteristics is the ideal choice for this problem.Here we summarized the latest research findings on the associations of gene polymorphisms with drug efficacy and adverse reaction in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia/urinary tract symptoms.

Objective To determine the contents of lutein,zeaxanthin and ?-carotene in 31 vegetables.Method High performance liquid chromatography method with Develosil C30 column and ultraviolet detector was used to detect lutein,zeaxanthin and ?-carotene at wavelength of 480nm.A gradient elution method with elution A (acetonitrile:methol=75:25) and B (methyl-tert-butyl-ether) was used to separate the carotenoids in both raw and cooked vegetables.Results The retention time of lutein,zeaxanthin and ?-carotene was 10.355,10.732 and 20.789 min respectively.The contents of lutein,zeaxanthin and ?-carotene were linearly related with the peak area.Analysis showed that dark leafy vegetable such as amaranth,Chinese celery leaf,parsley,spinach and pakchoi petiole contained the highest amount of lutein.Zeaxanthin was detected only in dehydrated daylily.There was little or no loss of lutein,zeaxanthin and ?-carotene but an average increase in lutein and ?-carotene in vegetables after cooking.Conclusion Vegetables,especially dark leafy vegetables are major sources of dietary lutein,and ?-carotene.Consuming cooked vegetables tends to increase the intakes of lutein,zeaxanthin and their bioavailability.

The time-dependent changes in myocardio membrane system during ischemia/reperfusion injury were studied with ligature of the left ventricular branch of coronary artery in rabbit. The permeability of cardiac membrane system being tested by using lanthanum tracer technique and stereological methods. Lanthanum granules were observed in the sarplacosma and sarccpiasmic tubes especially at ischemia for 20min. The pecmeability of membrane system for La~(+++) was more marked when hearts were reperfused for 20min. With the increase in time of ischemia, the changes became more and more serious. A lot of lanthanum granules were entered into mitochondria when the hearts were reperfused after 40min ischemia. There were neither intact mitichondria nor lanthanum granules in mitochondria observed when the hearts were reperfused after 60min ischemia. The structural changes were irreversible at this stage of reperfusion The results of our study indicated that the changes of permeability of cardiac cell for La~(+++) in ischcmia/reperfusion are time-dependent, 40min ischemia is the demarcation line between the reversible and irreversible injury during reperfusion. On the basis of our experiment, we like to propose a new conception of reversible and irreversible injury of reperfusion.

Calcium overload has been discovered in the ischemia and reperfusion injury of the heart recently, but there were less reports about changes in myocardial Ca distribution under this same condition by electronmicroscopy. Using the potassium-pyroantimonate method and X-ray microanalysis, we studied cytochemical calcium localization in the rabbit's myocardium at various time periods of ischmia with or without subsequent reperfusion. At the same time, we had the morphometric estimation of Ca granule volume density in the mitochondria by TAS(texture analysis system) and evaluated Danshen's protection for ischemia and-reperfusion injury. The results showed that mitochondrial Ca granule volume density increased significantly with the development of ischmia and post-ischemic reperfusion, especially during reperfusion following 40min of ischemia, however following 60min of ischemia, Ca granule volume density decreased than that observed following 40 min of ischemia. This meant that the limit time point for reversible and irreversible injury could be in the range of 40～60min of ischemia. Danshen pretreatment to the rabbits reduced Ca granule volume density significantly. This demostruted that Danshen acted as a calcium antagonist and contributed an outstanding protection to the myocardial calcium overload.

Ⅳ, change of phosphocreatine (PCr) content was very similar to thatof ATP. Content of ADP, AMP, Cr and HYPO was negatively correlated to ATP content. NAD content was also reduced. In summary, recently proposed hyperkalemic crystalloiddilluted blood protecting myocardium would not be sufficient enough and further improve-ment is quiet neccessary.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the infection status and drug resistance of mycoplasma and chlamydia isolated from female genitourinary tract in order to provide reference for doctors′ reasonable use of medicine.METHODS The IST2 kit produced by Bio-Merieux was used to culture the mycoplasma strains and to do drug susceptibility test.The VEDALAB kit was used to detect chlamydia.RESULTS Among 376 suspected patients with nongonococcal urethritis(NGU),the number of the patients infected by Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu),mixed strains of Uu and Mycoplasma hominis(Mh),and Chlamydia trachomatis(Ct) were 216,35 and 125,respectively.The positive rate was 57.4%,9.3% and 33.3%,respctively.The drug susceptibility test showed that drug resistance rates of the other six antibiotics in mixed infection of Uu and Mh were higher than that in simple infection of Uu except for josamycin,ofloxacin and doxycycline.The sensitivity of doxycycline,josamycin and platenomycin in mycoplasma was the most highest.CONCLUSIONS Infection in female genitourinary tract is mainly due to Uu.We should reasonably choose and use antibiotics according to drug susceptibility.

Objective To investigate the amide proton transfer (APT) values in basal ganglia of neonatal piglet hypoxicischemic brain injury (HIBI) model using MR APT imaging.Methods Totally 35 healthy neonatal piglets were selected.There were 5 piglets underwent sham-operation in control group and 30 piglets used to established HIBI models in HIBI group.According to the time interval between APT imaging and the establishment of HIBI model,the piglets in HIBI group were divided into 0-＜2 h,2-＜6 h,6-＜12 h,12-＜24 h,24-＜48 h and 48-＜72 h subgroups.APT imaging was performed on all piglets.The APT value of basal ganglia between control group and all the subgroups in HIBI group were compared.Results After HIBI occurred,the APT values immediately decreased in 0-2 h,and then increased gradually.In 24 h after HIBI,the APT values were mainly returned to the level of control group,then continuously increased.The APT value in control group and 0-＜2 h,2 ＜6 h,6 ＜12 h,12-＜24 h,24-＜48 h,48-＜72 h subgroups in HIBI group were 0.52 ± 0.09,-0.35 ± 0.08,-0.02 ± 0.14,0.28± 0.04,0.46 ± 0.11,0.80 ± 0.11,1.24 ± 0.18,respectively.The APT values between control group and each subgroups in HIBI group had significant differences (all P＜0.01) except for 12-＜24 h subgroup (P=0.68).Conclusion The APT value decreased firstly and then increased after HIBI in neonatal piglet.APT imaging can provide a non-invasive molecular MR method to evaluate the pathophysiological changes of HIBI.
