Objective To explore the effects of exogenous methionine on arsenical distribution in liver,blood and brain of mice exposed to sodium arsenite through drinking water. Methods The female Kunming mice were randomly divided into control group, the alone arsenic exposure group , the low level methionine intervention group, the moderate level methionine intervention group and the high level methionine intervention group, eight mice in each group . The mice in the experimental groups were exposed to sodium arsenite through drinking water at 50 mg/L arsenic for four consecutive weeks. And at the fourth week the 5 groups were treated intraperitoneally with saline solution (control and As group),100 mg/kg b.w,200 mg/kg b.w or 400 mg/kg b.w methionine,respectively . Twenty-four hours after cessation of methionine administration,mice were anaesthetized and rapidly dissected. The samples of blood,liver and brain were removed immediately for arsenic species analysis. Levels of inorganic arsenic (iAs),monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) and dimethylarsenic acid (DMA) were determined by HG-AAS method. Then total arsenic speciation( TAs), primary methylation ratio( PMR)and secondary methylation ratio( SMR)in each tissue were calculated. Results Compared with the control group, the levels of iAs, MMA, DMA and TAs in liver, brain and blood, were significantly higher in all experimental groups ( P

Objective To examine outcomes of superficial vein stripping for vein varicosis caused by combination of superficial and deep venous reflux and the effect on deep vein reflux. Methods From January 2004 to December 2006, twenty patients (22 lower extremities) with combined superficial and deep venous reflux were enrolled for evaluation, patients with superficial venous reflux alone worked as controls.All patients underwent superficial vein stripping and followed up for 2 years. Venous clinic severity score (VCSS) and color duplex ultrasound test were used to evaluate the change of clinic symptoms and valve reflux of deep veins. Results Preoperative VCSS of superficial and deep vein reflux group and superficial vein reflux group was 7.1 ± 2. 9 and 6. 6 ± 2. 0 respectively (P = 0. 44). At two years after operation the VCSS was 2. 3 ± 1.2 and 1.8 ± 0. 8 respectively without significant statistic differences, whereas comparing postoperative VCSS with individual preoperative parameters there was a significant decrease (P <0. 01). In combined superficial and deep vein group, deep venous reflux reduced in 7 limbs, progressed in 4 limbs, no change in 12 limbs. While in superficial reflux alone group, deep venous reflux occurred in 4 limbs.Conclusions Superficial vein stripping effectively improves symptoms of great saphenous vein varicosis of lower extremity caused by combination of superficial and deep vein reflux without a significant effect on the stares of deep vein reflux.

Objective to analyze the relation between glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and neonatal blood glucose.Methods HbA1c values of 743 pregnant women with GDM are detected,and according to HbA1c level,they were divided into 3 groups,such as G1 (HbA1c＜5.5％),G2 (5.5％≤HbA1c≤6.5％) and G3 (HbA1c＞6.5％).Newborn babies' blood glucose values of the women in each group are monitored respectively in the 1st hour and at the 4th and 8th hour.Neonatal hypoglycemia and incidence of threshold blood glucose in the three groups are compared by SPSS 17.0 software.Results (1) The incidence of neonatal hypoglycemia in G1 and G2 are both higher than thatin G3 in the 1st hour (P＜0.05).The incidence of neonatal hypoglycemia in G3 is higher than that in G1 and G2 at the 4th and 8th hour (P＜0.05).(2) With time extending,the incidence of neonatal hypoglycemia declines in G1 and G2 (P＜0.05),but there is no obvious decline in G3 (P＞0.05).(3)The incidence of threshold blood glucose in G3 and G2 are higher than that in G1 in the 1st hour,and at the 4th,8th hour(P＜0.05),and there is no obvious statistical difference between G2 and G3 (P＞0.05).(4)With time extending,the incidence of threshold blood glucose declines in G1 (P＜0.05),but it doesn't decline in G3 evidently(P＞0.05).And there was no obvious decline in G2 in the 4 hours after babies were born(P＞0.05).(5)A mother's HbA1c level has a negative correlation with her baby's blood glucose in 1 hour after birth(r=-0.401,P＜0.05).Conclusion The higher HbA1c level of pregnant women with GDM increases,the higher risks of their neonatal hypoglycemia and threshold blood glucose are.

[ ABSTRACT] Interstitial cells of Cajal ( ICC) is the pacemaker in the gastrointestinal tract , which is closely as-sociated with the formation of slow wave and the regulation of gastrointestinal motility .As the pacemaker of gastrointestinal tract, the activation of pacing signal is triggered by the local calcium oscillation in the ICC .The change of calcium concen-tration can activate many relevant ion channels , such as NSCC, ANO1, VGCC, HCN channels and potassium channels , which can generate a large number of pacing current to form the slow wave and then propagated by the gap junction between the ICC networks and smooth muscle cells to make the peristalsis of gastrointestinal tract in autonomic rhythm .However, the mechanism of these ion channels in the pacemaker activity is still unclear , so we refer to make a review about the re-search progress on these pacemaker channels in this article to illuminate the mechanism of pacemaker activity in ICC .
