ObjectiveTo study the effect of responded hyperglycemia on the prognosis of acute stroke.Methods116 cases with acute stroke were divided into responded hyperglycemia group and normoglycemia group.The complications and activity of daily living(ADL) were compared in these two groups.ResultsResponded hyperglycemia severely influenced the recovery of patients as well as diabetes mellitus did.The incidence of infective complications in responded hyperglycemia group was higher than that of normoglycemia group.ConclusionsResponded hyperglycemia can make the prognosis of acute stroke bad.

OBJECTIVE: Aim to construct a novel polymer gene delivery system based on a new kind of dendrimer-polyamidoamine (PAMAM). With the modification of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and YPSMA-1 monoclonal antibody (mAb), PAMAM-PEG-mAb was successfully synthesized as a novel gene vector targeting to the prostatic cancer. METHODS: NMR was used to characterize PAMAM-PEG-mAb. The cellular uptake and prostatic cancer (PCa) distribution experiments were employed to explore its biological characteristics and PCa cell (PC3 and LNCaP) targeting ability. RESULTS: NMR results demonstrated the successful synthesis of PAMAM-PEG-mAb. The cellular uptake of vectors was concentration-dependent. The gene expression in vitro indicated that the modification of mAb could increase the gene expression efficiency and PCa targeting ability of PAMAM vectors to LNCaP ( PSMA overexpressing prostate cancer cells). CONCLUSION: PAMAM-PEG-mAb is a potential gene delivery vector targeting to PCa. Copyright 2012 by the Chinese Pharmaceutical Association.

Objective:To test the microtensile bonding strength between root canal wall and Bis-Core, and that between root canal wall and Chemil Superior glass-ionomer.Methods:10 human maxillary incisors extracted within one week were kept for another one week after root canal treatment and removeal of the crowns,each root was splited into two parts along with the long axis by Isomet saw, the bonding interface on one third of upside of root dentin smear layer was made with Diamond bur at a high-speed. Then Bis-Core and Chemil Superior glass-ionomer were put on root canal inner surface of each half part of the root respectively, samples with the size of 1.00 mm?1.00 mm were prepared by Isomet saw. Two samples in which bonding interface was perpendiculur to load were selected and fixed in Microtensile testing machine for bonding strength test. Results:Microtensile bonding strength(MPa) between Bis-Core and root canal inner wall and that between root canal inner wall and Chemil Superior glass-ionomer was 20.65?1.72 and 12.89?1.63 respectively(P

Objective:To observe the microstructure of interface between material and dentin after root canal rehabilitation. Methods:Three human maxillary incisors extracted within one week were used. After crowns being removed and received root canal treatment, they were used for the study. The root was split into two parts along the long axis, then the bonding interface was made with high speed diamond bur. Bis-Core and Chemil Superior glass-ionomer were stacked on root canal inner wall respectively and the teeth were split along with the long axis with Isomet saw, in order to expose bonding interface. The microstructure of bonding interface of the samples were analyzed by optical microscope and atomic force microscope(AFM). Results: AFM observation of the adhesive interface specimens showed that Chemil Superior glass-ionomer and teeth knitted together completely and no filling invaded into dentin tube. While the bonding interface between Bis-Core and dentin, dentin primer infiltrated into dentin tube and matrix around through the smear layer and colophony protruded. Conclusion:The observations reveal the extent of resin penetration into the dentinal tubules provides a very strong bonding. This is a fundamental cause of resin better bond to tooth.

BACKGROUND:The increase of serum cholesterol levels is positively correlated with the increasing incidence of osteoarthritis. Little is known about the role of high-fat diet in the degeneration of articular cartilage and induced arthritis.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the morphology change of the articular cartilage of New Zealand rabbits after high-fat diet, and explore the role of food in the articular cartilage degeneration.
METHODS:Forty New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into two groups. In control group, rabbits were fed with basal diet. In high-fat diet group, rabbits were fed with high-fat diet (20%lard and 80%basal diet). Fasting blood samples was taken every 4 weeks, to detect the triglyceride and total cholesterol levels. After rabbit were fed for 28 weeks, the knee joint was grossly observed and the femoral condyle cartilage was scanned by scanning electron microscope.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, the triglyceride and total cholesterol levels were significantly increased in the high fat group (P<0.05). Under scanning electron microscope, the high-fat group showed rough surface of condylar cartilage, shal ow pouch, messy arrangement, irregular shape and uneven size. The surface of cartilage exhibited focal denudation, irregular arrangement, uneven porosity and fractured cavity. Under higher magnification, smal mountain-like structure of cartilage surface became shal ow and flattened, the pores disappeared. Long-term high-fat diet may induce and aggravate cartilage damage, suggesting it may be involved in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD) is a group of chronic airway inflammatory disease characterized by sustained airflow limitation and pulmonary function damage.Inflammation and tissue repair repeatedly result in airway remodeling.Now the mechanisms of airway remodeling remain unclear.More and more researches indicated that epithelial mesenchymal transition ( EMT) is crucial in the airway remodeling of COPD.EMT could be induced by various cell factors and signal channels in the airway epithelium, thus the airway remodeling happened.This review systematically introduces EMT and focuses on the relationship of EMT and airway remodeling of COPD and the probable mechanisms.

Objective To investigate the inter-arm invasive blood pressure differences during hip replacement in patients with lateral position and its relationship with position.Methods Sixty-six patients having underwent hip replacement in orthopedic surgery with lateral position were enrolled.Invasive blood pressure measurements were obtained from bilateral radial artery in all patients every 5 minutes.Simultaneously bilateral invasive blood pressure measurements were obtained and compared.Results At supine position,systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the uninjured side were (128.16 ±20.09),(69.47 ± 8.64) and (89.03 ± 10.42) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa);systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the injured side were (127.90 ± 20.44),(69.86 ± 8.81) and (89.21 ± 10.71) mmHg.There was statistical difference in inter-arm diastolic pressure (P ＜ 0.05),but inter-arm systolic pressure and mean arterial pressure had no statistical differences (P ＞ 0.05).At left-lateral position,systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the uninjured side were (129.12 ± 21.93),(69.23 ± 8.92) and (89.19 ± 11.35) mmHg;systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the injured side were (129.01 ± 21.72),(69.51 ± 9.02) and (89.34 ± 11.35) mmHg.There was statistical difference in inter-arm diastolic pressure (P ＜ 0.05),but inter-arm systolic pressure and mean arterial pressure had no statistical differences (P ＞ 0.05).At right-lateral position,systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the uninjured side were (128.78 ± 20.34),(69.54 ± 9.06) and (89.29 ± 10.82) mmHg;systolic pressure,diastolic pressure and mean arterial pressure of the injured side were (128.27 ± 20.56),(70.00 ± 9.09) and (89.43 ± 10.89) mmHg.There were statistical differences in inter-arm systolic pressure and diastolic pressure (P ＜ 0.05),but inter-arm mean arterial pressure had no statistical difference (P ＞ 0.05).The bilateral radial artery blood pressure difference under different positions was ＜ 1 mmHg,and had no clinical practical significance.There was no correlation between blood pressure and age,sex,body mass index.Conclusion Bilateral radial artery in the same patients with invasive blood pressure has no clinical difference,and patients with lateral position operation for radial artery puncture pressure need not consider the differences of blood pressure between arms.
