Objective To investigate the effects of Tiaoxin Formula on spatial learning and memory ability and long-term potentation (LTP) in the hippocampus of APP/PS1 transgenic mice with Alzheimer disease; To discuss its mechanism of action. Methods Totally 54 three-month-old APP/PS1 transgenic mice were randomly divided into model control group, Tiaoxin Formula group and positive control group, with 18 mice in each group. Another 18 three-month-old C57BL/6J wild mice were chosen as normal control group. All administration groups receive relevant medicine. 12 weeks later, Morris water maze test was used to test behavior and in vitro electrophysiology record. Results The Morris water maze test showed that in place navigation test, compared with the model control group, escape latency time in Tiaoxin Formula group was significantly reduced (P<0.01). In the space experiments, compared with the model control group, the number of crossing the platform quadrant and the time staying at the platform quadrant in Tiaoxin Formula group were significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). In vitro hippocampal electrophysiological induction, compared with the model control group, fEPSP slope in the hippocampus in Tiaoxin Formula group were significantly increased (P<0.01), the PPF had no significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusion Tiaoxin Formula can improve the spatial learning and memory ability and LTP of APP/PS1 transgenic mice with Alzheimer disease, thus can realize cognitive protection effects.

Objective To investigate the effect of tourniquet compression on axonal transport in sciatic nerve of rats.Methods Twenty-four 12-week old male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly divided into 4groups according to the duration of tourniquet compression(n=6 each):1,2,4 and 12 h.The tourniquet was applied to the middle 1/3 of thigh.In each animal whether the left or right thigh was compressed was determined by a flip of coin.The tourniquet was released for 10 min after every hour of compression.A 3-cm segment of sciatic nerve was removed at the end of tourniquet compression(1.5 cm proximal and 1.5 cm distal to the site of compression).Immuno-histochemistry was used to measure the expression of insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1)in the sciatic nerve.The ratio of average optic density of the compressed sciatic nerve to that of control was used to estimate the degree of IGF-1 accumulation.The regression equation of the interaction between the duration of compression and accumulation of IGF-1 was analyzed.Results There was significant accumulation of IGF-1 in the sciatic nerve proximal to the compressed site.The accumulation increased with the duration of compression.There was no significant accumulation of IGF-1 in the sciatic nerve distal to the compressed site.The regression equation of the interaction between the duration of compression(X)and accumulation of IGF-1(Y)was Y=0.422X+0.887.Conclusion Tourniquet compression of sciatic nerve can inhibit axonal transport.The accumulation increases with the duration of compression.

BACKGROUND:Long course of treatment and complications limit the extensive application of distraction osteogenesis, which cannot meet the clinical requirements. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of general administration of eucommia alcohol extract on new bone regeneration based on the rabbit model of mandibular distraction osteogenesis. METHODS:Twenty-four New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. Unilateral mandibular distraction osteogenesis model was established by 1 mm/12 h distraction protocol. During the distraction period, the rabbits in the experimental group were intragastricaly administered with eucommia alcohol extract and the control animals received the same amount of physiological saline, respectively. Six weeks later, the animals were sacrificed for osteogenic testing. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: New bone formation was observed in the distracted gap in both groups. However, the amount, mineralization and biomechanical strength of new regenerated bone in the experimental group were obviously greater than those in the control group by histological observation, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, micro-CT and biomechanical test. General administration of eucommia alcohol extract can markedly promote distraction osteogensis in rabbit mandibular osteodistraction.

Objective To evaluate the impact of hydrogen sulfide signal system during the process of rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal cells osteogenesis under tensile stress. Methods After the H2S signal system of cell rooms regulated by tool drugs (Group A with propargylglycine;Goup B with PBS;Group C with GYY3147), 4 000 μ strain tensile stress were applied on rat BMMCs by four-point bending apparatus for 60 minutes. Four hours later, the H2S signal system and cystathionine-γ-lyase were detected. Meanwhile, the change of the alkaline phosphate, osteocalcin, procollagen typeⅠN-terminal propeptide, and runt-related transcription factor 2 mRNA level were also examined to evaluate the osteogenic ability. Results With the increase of H2S expression, the osteogenic capacity gradually increased, while the osteogenic capacity was compromised after the endogenous cystathionine-γ-lyase was inhibited. Conclusion The H2S signal system plays an important role during BMMCs osteogensis under tensile stress. The up-regulation expression of H2S may promote osteogenesis during distraction osteogenesis.

Objective To compare the curative effect of internal fixation treatment between reconstruction-type intramedullary nailing and long anatomic proximal femoral locking plate for patients with ipsilateral femoral proximal and shaft fractures. Methods Twenty-six patients with ipsilateral femoral proximal and shaft fractures were selected, among whom 12 patients were treated with reconstruction-type intramedullary nailing internal fixation treatment (group A), and 14 patients were treated with long anatomic proximal femoral locking plate internal fixation treatment (group B). The fracture to operation time, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, fracture healing time and hip joint function according to Majeed function score were compared between 2 groups. Results The fracture to operation time, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, proximal femoral fracture healing time, femoral shaft fracture healing time and Majeed function score in group A were (6.65 ± 4.11) d, (131.08 ± 20.70) min, (470.83 ± 96.43) ml, (17.83 ± 2.70) weeks, (20.08 ± 3.97) weeks and (83.83 ± 8.13) scores, and those in group B were (7.13 ± 4.56) d, (141.86 ± 27.30) min, (553.57 ± 127.80) ml, (18.29 ± 5.12) weeks, (21.55 ± 4.19) weeks and (83.21 ± 9.58) scores, and there were no statistical differences (P>0.05). According to Majeed function score, in group A excellent was in 7 cases, good in 4 cases, and general in 1 case; in group B excellent was in 9 cases, good in 3 cases, and general in 2 cases. Conclusions A fixation device fixes two fracture is preferred. Both treatment methods used in the present study could achieve satisfactory curative effect, and should be chosen according to the fracture type of the patients and the surgeon′s familiarity for the methods of internal fixation chosen. The proximal femoral fracture should preferably be reduced and stabilized first. A delay of 5 - 6 d would not affect the ultimate curative effect.

Objective To compare the sedative and analgesic effects of remifentanil combined with propofol administered by target-controlled infusion(TCI)and intravenous infusion during local anesthesia.Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 18-55 yr,with body mass index ＜ 30 kg/m2,scheduled for plastic surgery under local anesthesia,were equally and randomly divided into TCI group(group T)and intravenous infusion group (group V).Remifentanil(the initial target plasma concentration 1.0 ng/ml)and propofol(the initial target plasma concentration 1.0 ng/ml)were given by TCI before local anesthesia in group T.Remifentanil was infused at a rate of 0.05 μg·kg-1 ·min-1 after a loading dose of 0.25 μg/kg and propofol was infused at a rate of 3 mg·kg-1 ·h-1 after a loading dose of 0.5 mg/kg in group V.The target plasma concentration or infusion rate was adjusted to maintain the modified OAA/S score of 2 or 3.Hypoxemia,bradypnea and/or apnea were recorded during operation.The total amount of remifentanil and propofol consumed was calculated.Results Compared with group V,the incidence of hypoxemia,bradypnea and/or apnea were significantly decreased during operation,and the total amount of remifentanil and propofol consumed was significantly reduced in group T(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The sedative and analgesic effects of remifentanil combined with propofol given by TCI are superior to those given by intravenous infusion during local anesthesia,with better safety.

Objective To compare remifentanil?propofol target?controlled infusion ( TCI ) with sufentanil?propofol TCI for sedation and analgesia in the patients undergoing local anesthesia. Methods Sixty patients, aged 17?54 yr, with body mass index <30 kg∕m2, scheduled for elective plastic surgery underlocal anesthesia, were equally and randomly divided into remifentanil group (group R) and sufentanil group(group S) by using a random number table. Remifentanil (the initial target plasma concentration 1?? 0ng∕ml) and propofol (the initial target plasma concentration 1?? 0 μg∕ml) were given by TCI in group R.Sufentanil (the initial target plasma concentration 0?? 10 ng∕ml) and propofol (the initial target plasma con?centration 1?? 0 μg∕ml) were given by TCI in group S. The target plasma concentration was adjusted to main?tain the modified Observer′s Assessment of Alertness∕Sedation Scale score of 2 or 3. The occurrence of painresponses, hypoxemia, bradypnea and∕or apnea was recorded during operation. The total amount of propofolconsumed was calculated. Results There was no significant difference in the incidence of pain response,hypoxemia, bradypnea and∕or apnea, and total amount of propofol consumed between the two groups (P >0?? 05). Conclusion Remifentanil?propofol TCI provides similar sedative and analgesic efficacy to that a?chieved by sufentanil?propofol TCI in the patients undergoing local anesthesia.
