Objective To study the effects of Shuanghuanglian Oral Solution (only for children) on general condition, body weight, food intake, growth and development, blood routine and pathologic changes of SD weanling rats; To provide experimental references for clinical safe medication.Methods SD weanling rats were randomly divided into control group,Shuanghuanglian (only for children) Oral Solution low-, medium- and high-dose group according to body mass, with 30 rats in each group. Each administration group was given corresponding amount of Shuanghuanglian Oral Solution (only for children) concentrated ointment for gavage, once a day, for 33 d. The toxicity of the rats during dosing period and recovery period (medicine withdrawal 25 d) was observed.Results There were no significant differences in general condition, individual development, organ mass and coefficient, and internal fixation and pathological findings of rats in administration groups during dosing period and recovery period. The body mass and food intake of female and male rats in the Shuanghuanglian Oral Solution high-dose group were lower than those in the control group. The blood routine test during dosing period showed that the lymphocyte ratio of female rats and male rats in Shuanghuanglian Oral Solution high-dose group decreased significantly, neutrophil ratio increased significantly, and then returned to normal level in recovery period.Conclusion Shuanghuanglian Oral Solution (only for children) concentrated ointment has no toxic effect on the whole body organs and tissues of juvenile rats, and the safety is good.

The endophytic bacteria of the mangroves were studied in this paper. The results show that there are 1.728 (0. 195 -4.225)?104cfu/g (fw) bacterial endophytes in the variety of mangroves, the most population of the endophytic bacteria was found in Rhizophora stylosa, the figure was4. 225?104cfu/g (fw) , the next was Bruguiera gymnorrhiza, Aegiceras corniculatum, Kandelia candel and Avicennia marina. In parts of the mangroves, the contents of the bacteria in stem was the most, the figure was 1. 649?10 cfu/g (fw) , then the root and the leaf. Of the bacteria, about 43. 53% strains expressed the antagonism against the growth of the plant pathogens, such as Fusarium oxyspontm f. sp. cubense , Colletotrichum sp. and Rahtonia solanaceance etc. and these bacteria were identified as Bacillus sp. . The results also showed that 9 of the 13 strains (69. 23% ) could promote the growth of the tomato, while 4 strains (30. 77% ) restrained the tomato's growth.

Aim The effect of tetrandrine on TGF-?1 mRNA expression in glomerulosclerosis rat was observed. Methods The rats were randomly divided into four groups, such as the normal control group (sham operative rat), glomerulosclerosis model group,tetrandrine group and amlodipine group. The expression of TGF-?1 mRNA was analyzed by Northern blot hybridization. Results The expressions of TGF-?1 mRNA in two treating groups were much lower than untreated model group. There were no difference between these two treating groups. Conclusion Tetrandrine can decrease the expression of TGF-?1 mRNA in glomerulosclerosis rat induced by unilateral renctomy plus adriamycin.

Objective To investigate the event-based prospective memory (EBPM) and time-based prospective memory (TBPM) in temporal lobe epilepsy patients,and test the hypothcsis that temporal lobe is involved in the prospective memory network. Methods Sixty-two patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and 30 age- and education level-matched healthy adults were examed with the neuropsychological battery of tests including EBPM and TRPM tasks. Results In comparison with the controls,the TLE patients were impaired on MMSE,DS and VFT.Compared with the healthy adults ( EBPM:6.83± 1.34,TBPM:5.00 ± 1.70),the patients with temporal lobe epilepsy had a significant loss in EBPM (3.95 ±2.77,t =6.72,P ＜0.01 ) and TBPM (3.08 ±2.42,t =4.39,P ＜0.01).There was no difference in the performance of EBPM (3.82 ± 2.70,4.10 ± 2.90 ; t =- 0.40,P ＞ 0.05 ) and TBPM (2.55 ± 2.20,3.69± 2.55; t =-1.90,P ＞0.05 ) between the patients with taking antiepileptic drugs and those without antiepileptic drugs. Conclusions These results suggest that patients with temporal lobe epilepsy may experience general difficulties with prospective memory.It is possible that temporal lobe is involved in the prospective memory network.The passages of TBPM need more self-initiated processes.

Objective To explore the mutation and evolution of Yersiniapestis(Y. pestis) from the point of codon and 16S-ribosome. Methods Codon preference and 16S-ribosome of Y. pestis were analyzed by bioinformatics. Results Similar codon preference was found among 4 PCD1 Y. pestis, of the 3 old Y. pestis the codon preference between PMT1 and PCD1 was similar. There were some differences between PCD1, PCP1 and Yunnan 6 kb plasmid. Through the analysis of 16S-ribosome, the sequences were found similar in 11 strains of Y. pestis,Yersinia pseudotuberculosis was very close to Y. pestis, with only one nucleotide difference, mutated G-T, and corresponding amino acid methionine (M)-isoleucine (I). There were some differences in sequences of 16S-ribosome in Y. pestis, Escherichia coli and Pulex irritans. Conclusions The time for Y. pestis to obtain PCP1 is later than PMT1 does, in other words, the affinity of Y. pestis with PMT1 was closer than PCP1 with 6 kb plasmid;alteration of 16S-ribosomal nucleotide sites may cause changes in function and structure of 16S rRNA. The lower similarity between 16S-ribosomal sequences of Y. pestis and Pulex irritans indicates the time for co-evolution is very short,and the late emergence of Y. pestis.

BACKGROUND:Flexible intramedulary nailing and external fixation for pediatric femoral shaft fractures are two common methods in the clinic. It remains controversial which fixation methods are better. OBJECTIVE:To systematicaly evaluate the therapeutic effects of flexible intramedulary nailing and external fixation for pediatric femoral shaft fractures. METHODS: A computer-based search was performed on PubMed, Embase, Medline, and Cochrane library for literatures on clinical controled trials of flexible intramedulary nailing and external fixation for pediatric femoral shaft fractures published before November 25, 2014. Literature language was not limited. The age of subjects was from 3 to 15 years. Modified Jadad was utilized to assess methodological quality of the included studies. Meta-analysis was carried out using Stata 12.0 software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Six papers involving 237 patients were included. Meta-analysis results showed that compared with external fixation, a low incidence of overal complications [relative risk (RR)=0.30, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.19-0.46;P < 0.001] and pin-hole infection (RR=0.286, 95%CI: 0.13-0.61;P= 0.001), but a high risk of needle tail irritation (RR=1.86, 95%CI: 1.35-2.56;P < 0.001) were found folowing flexible intramedulary nailing. No significant differences in other complications were found between the two groups. These results confirm that compared with external fixation, elastic intramedulary nail has fewer complications and faster fracture healing. Elastic intramedulary nail is recommended for single pediatric femoral shaft fractures. However, external fixation is a better option for high energy injury of lower limbs, multiple trauma or severely soft tissue injury.
