Total glucosides of paeony root ( TGPs ) ( 5 ~40mg/kg, ip ) had a dose-related hypothermal effect in mice and rats, which was related to the environment temperature. But TGPs ( 40mg/kg, ip or iv ) showed no significant hypothermal effect in guinea-pigs or rabbits. TGPs ( 2, 4 mg/kg, icv ) had a potential hypothermal effect in rats. Chlopheniramine had antagonist effect on hypothermal effect of TGPs in mice and rats.

Objective To determine in vitro susceptibility of itroconazole,voriconazole,caspofungi,and amphotericin B against 82 clinical strains of filamentous fungi.Methods Etest method was used to test the in vitro susceptibilities of itroconazole,voriconazole,caspofungi,and amphoteriin B against aspergillus fumigatus,A.flavus,A.niger,A.terreus,A.nidulans,et al.Results The MIC range of 4 antifungal agents were 0.03~2.00 mg/L and 0.01~32.00 mg/L against A.fumigatus and A.flavus,respectively.But amphotericin B had higher MIC90 value which was 16mg/L against A.flavus than A.terreus(MIC90 3.00 mg/L),A.fumigatus(MIC90 0.75 mg/L),and A.niger(MIC90 0.25 mg/L).Conclusion Itroconazole,voriconazole,caspofungi,and amphotericin B have different susceptibility patterns against various types of filamentous fungi.It's necessary to identify fungi to level of species and perform antifungal susceptibility test in serious patients.

Objective To investigate the impact of the COX-2 specific inhibitor parecoxib on postoperative serum cytokines and early cognitive function in the elderly patients undergoing knee replacement.Methods Seventy-two elderly patients undergoing knee replacement were divided into a control group (group Ⅰ)and parecoxib group (group Ⅱ).MMSE score were compared at preoperative 1 d and postoperative 1 d,3 d,7 d.Before induction of anesthesia (T1 ),postoperative 6 h (T2 ),1 d (T3 ),3 d (T4 ),7 d (T5 ),the serum IL-1β,IL-6 concentrations were measured,meanwhile the serum S-100βwere measured in T2 .Results At postop-erative 1 d,3 d,the MMSE score in group Ⅰ was significantly lower compared with the preoperative (P <0.05).IL-6 in T2 ,IL-1βin T3 increased in both group.In group Ⅱ,three days later,the exaltation of plasma inflammatory factors returned to the preopera-tive level,but this process last untill T5 in group Ⅰ.The plasma concentration of IL-6 in T2 ,T3 ,T4 and IL-1βin T3 ,T4 in group Ⅰwere higher than group II (P <0.05).At T2 ,the serum S-100βin group Ⅰ was (1 625 ± 364)pg/mL higher than group Ⅱ(1 263 ±174)pg/mL(P <0.05).Conclusion The protective effection of COX-2-specific inhibitor parecoxib upon postoperative cognitive decline in elderly patients undergoing orthopedic surgery may be related to inhibition of peripheral cytokine release.

Colorectal cancer(CRC)ranks the third in incidence and mortality rate among human tumors. Tumor relapse,me?tastasis and drug resistance remain the main obstacle to the success of CRC treatments. Compared to traditional chemotherapy ,target therapy seems to treat tumors in more precise and rational fashion with good response and often less toxic side-effect. Although target agents provide hope for more effective therapy,recent clinical studies have shown only modest benefit from target therapy similar to tra?ditional chemotherapy. Primary and secondary resistance to target agents is still observed and contributes to CRC treatment failure. The review summarizes research progress in the mechanism of drug resistance to target therapy in CRC treatment.

BACKGROUND:Tissue-engineered bone in the treatment of large bone defects has obvious advantages especial y when the autologous ilium transplantation is limited, which can effectively fil bone defects.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the rationality of intramedul ary nailing support and tissue-engineered bone fil ing in the treatment of fibrous dysplasia of the proximal femur and the biocompatibility of the tissue-engineered bone.
METHODS:Seven patients with fibrous dysplasia of the proximal femur were subjected to intramedul ary nailing support and tissue-engineered bone fil ing.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al of the seven patients underwent more than 8 months of fol ow-up, no rejection reaction and other complications occurred. After 4-6 weeks of fixation, al the seven patients removed hip spica braces, with a good hip mobility. After 10-12 weeks, X-ray review showed no pathological fracture, internal fixation loosening and narrow neck stem angle. Using the Harris hip score evaluation of the hip function, the affected side of the seven patients was optimized. After 16-18 weeks, X-ray films reviewed good creeping substitution in the affected area treated with the intramedul ary nailing support and bone graft. After 24-26 weeks, new bone appeared within the scope of lesions. After 1.0-1.5 years, bone creeping substitution was basical y completed in the intertrochanteric region, and original lesions were invisible on X-ray films. These findings confirmed that intramedul ary nailing support and tissue-engineered bone fil ing for treating fibrous dysplasia of the proximal femur has good effectiveness, exhibiting stable internal fixation and avoiding resection of autogenous iliac bone. Tissue-engineered bone has a good biocompatibility in the medium-term fol ow-up, with good hip function activities.

Objective:To explore the relationship between arrival time and the retention in emergency room and the prognosis in patients with severe trauma.Methods:The clinical data of 1 738 emergency trauma patients in emergency intensive care from trauma center information system of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were extracted. The emergency retention was the time in the emergency room ≥ 4 h. The 24 h of the day was divided into three shifts at 8:00, 15:00 and 22:00. Logistic regression model was used to calculate the crude OR and adjusted OR after adjustment by age, sex and RTS of emergency shifts, and COX regression analysis was performed with emergency death as the endpoint. Results:Among the total of 1 738 patients with severe trauma, there were 852 (49.02%) cases of emergency retention. Taking the morning shift as the reference baseline, the risks of emergency retention in middle shift and night shift were increased gradually. The OR value of night shift was statistically significant ( P<0.01), and the crude OR and adjusted OR were 2.21 (95% CI: 1.71-2.86) and 2.36 (95% CI: 1.76-3.18), respectively. The univariate COX regression model indicated that the crude HR of night shift was statistically significant ( HR=0.26, 95% CI: 0.08-0.90, P=0.033). However, the multivariate COX regression model showed no statistically significant differences in the adjusted HR of middle shift ( HR=0.96, 95% CI: 0.43-2.14, P=0.914) and night shift ( HR=0.40, 95% CI: 0.08-1.85, P=0.238), respectively. Conclusions:The arrival time of emergency trauma patients might be a contributor to the emergency retention, and night shift patients are more likely to encounter retention, but there is no significant effect on patient death.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of four kinds of different contact strength on the three-dimensional displacement of an implant-supported fixed bridge using digital laser speckle photography method. An in vitro model of beagle mandible with an implant-supported fixed bridge in its right premolar region was developed. The bridge was Au-Pt metal-ceramic. The contact was recovered to four different tightnesses, named 0, 1, 2, and 3. Different axial concentrated static load was applied to abutments and bridge respectively. The three-dimensional displacement of the implant-supported fixed bridge was measured using digital laser speckle photographic method. The results demonstrated that the influence of contact tightness was mainly on the mesio-distal and buccal lingual parts. When the contact tightness reached number 3, the regularity of displacement distribution was changed. The present study proved that digital laser speckle photography was an effective method of measuring the micro-displacement. One of the criterions of contact recovering decreased the implant displacement effectively without changing the regularity of displacement distribution.
