Objective To observe the effects of the chronic adventitia injury on the vasoconstriction of the rat carotid artery. Methods A non-occlusive silicone collar was positioned around the right carotid artery of rats. Blood flow and vascular reactivity to 5-HT were examined, and both carotids were harvested for morphometry at day 3,7 and 14 after operation. Results In the early stage of advenfitia injury induced by positioning a silicone collar around file rat carotid artery, there appeared the characteristic histological changes of chronic vasospasm in collared artery, such as the reduction of the luminal area for (12.15±2.29)% at day 3 after operation (P =0.003 ) and (45.17±3.84)% at day 7 (P 〈 0.001 )] ,corrugation of the internal elastic lamina,medial thickening up to [ (23.04±5.96)% at day 3 (P =0.009), (61.65±10.32)% for day 7 (P 〈 0.001 )] ,the reduction of the blood flow and the increase of vascular reactivity to 5-HT when compared to con- tralateral arteries. Two weeks after collar placement, the vascular wall remodeling was observed in injured artery, such as the medial thickening for [(31.52±4.56) %,P =0.012] and a diffuse intimal hyperplasia,the reduction of the lunfinal area [(37.17±4.57)% (P 〈 0.001)] and the carotid artery blood flow. The average neointima area was (0.19±0.05) rom2 in collared arteries. The vascular reactivity to 5-HT came back to the normal level. Conclusions Collar-induced advenfitia injury caused the enhancement of vascular contractility and the neointima formation. The change of vascular contractility appeared before the formation of neointima.

BACKGROUND:Now, the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel homing is thought to be mediated by adhesion molecules and chemokines, and this process involves bone marrow endothelial cel s, hematopoietic stem cel s, bone marrow microenvironment and its secreted or expressed molecules, in which, adhesion molecules may play an important role.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the migrating and chemotactic mechanism of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s via acupoint injection into myocardial cel s by determining the expression of vascular cel adhesion molecule-1 and very late antigen-4.
METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were cultured using adherent method, and the passage 3 cel s were used as seed cel s at a density of 1×1010/L. Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham group, model group, myocardial injection group, and acupoint injection group, 15 rats in each group. The left coronary arteries of rats were ligated for establishing a model of myocardial infarction. At 72 hours after myocardial infarction, 0.3 mL bone mesenchymal stem cel s were transplanted into the Xinyu, Zhiyang, Tanzhong acupoints, respectively, in the acupoint injection group;while in the myocardial injection group, secondary thoracotomy was done, and 1.2 mL bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were equably transplanted into six
sites in the feeding area of the left anterior descending artery and the surrounding myocardium. At 4 weeks after myocardial infarction, a multi-channel polygraph was adopted for detection of hemodynamic parameters, and the levels of serum vascular cel adhesion molecule-1 and very late antigen-4 were measured by ELISA.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The heart function of rats in the myocardial injection and acupoint injection groups were improved, and compared with the model group, the levels of serum vascular cel adhesion molecule-1 and very late antigen-4 were significantly higher in the myocardial injection and acupoint injection groups. However, there was no significant difference between the myocardial injection and acupoint injection groups. These findings suggest that vascular cel adhesion molecule-1 and very late antigen-4 may be one of the chemotactic mechanisms of bone mesenchymal stem cel s transplanted in myocardial infarction model rats by acupoint injection.

BACKGROUND:Toxic cytarabine is often used to prepare highly purified neurons in experimental studies addressing central nervous system diseases. However, the intervention time of cytarabine is little reported. OBJECTIVE:To determine the optimal intervention time of cytarabine(final concentration 10μmol/L) in primary culture of rat cortical neurons. METHODS:Rat primary cortical neurons were cultured in Neurobasal+B27 medium, and 10μmol/L cytarabine were added at 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours after culture, respectively. Half of the medium were changed every 48 hours. The morphology of neurons was observed under inverted microscope at 7 days. The purity and differentiation of neurons maturity were identified by immunocytochemistry method of neuron specific enolization enzyme staining. Morphometric analysis for all neuron-specific enolase positive cells was performed by Multifunction Computer Image Analysis System. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After addition of cytarabine at 24 hours of culture, the purity of neurons was more than 90%, well-differentiated cortical neurons accounted for 89.00%, and the area of neuronal body was the largest with the longest synapses. There were more neuron cells with transparent cytoplasm, and large nucleus. The cell body had good refraction and strong stereo sense. The neurons with 3-4 synapses and 3-4 bifurcates formed a good network structure. These results illustrate that although it willbe beneficial for the purity of neurons to add cytarabine early in neuron culture process, it will make obvious effect on neuronal differentiation. The highly purified and well-grown cerebral cortical neurons will be obtained after cultured in neurolbasal medium, which cytarabine is added to at 24 hours of culture.

BACKGROUND:Femoral neck fracture is mainly fixed by three inverted triangle cannulated screws. Scholars have proposed to add a cannulated screw to enhance the fixation strength of femoral neck fracture of Pauwels III type based on three cannulated screw fixation, but the stability is not verified. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the biomechanical stability and stress of the three and four cannulated screws for the treatment of the Pauwels III femoral neck fractures. METHODS:The CT imaging results of the fourth generation of artificial bone sawbones were imported into the Mimics software wherein a three-dimensional finite element model of the proximal femur was prepared and introduced in the 3-matic software. Models of middlesegment of femoral neck with Pauwels III fractures were established. Cannulated screw models were established with UG 8.0 software and introduced in the fractures models. Finally, finite element models of Pauwels III femoral neck fractures fixed with three and four screws were established. In the same condition, an axial load of 411 N was applied on the femoral head with Abaqus software. The displacement of two markers of the broken ends and internal fixation system Von Mises stress distribution were compared between the two models. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The displacement was 0.42 mm in three screws model, and 0.17 mm in the four screws model. (2) Von Mises stress peak was 547 MPa and 27.8 MPa in both models. The peak value was lower in models of fourscrews than that of three screws. Stress concentration position was at the fracture site in both models. The stress range of models of four screws was more extensive and scattered. (3) Finite element analysis results demonstrated that four-screw implantation for Pauwels III femoral neck fractures had strong anti-shearing force and biomechanical stability. Clinical advantages need further clinical comparative study.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the quantity, quality and effect of health management service project for patients with hypertension and diabetes in basic public health service project of Sichuan province.
METHODS44 health clinics or community health service center, 22 counties and 11 cities was extracted by method of multistage stratified sampling on March, 2014. In each institution we sampled 10 resident health record of hyperpietic and 10 of diabetic. Number of managed patients was recorded to calculate the rate of health management. Telephone survey was used to judge the accuracy and standardability of services the patients received according to the national basic public health service specifications. We compared the satisfaction rate and blood pressure/blood sugar control rate of patients which had accurate record to which had not, and which got normative services to which didn't.
RESULTS33.8% (69 680/206 154) of the hyperpietics and 24.0% (25 562/106 508) of the diabetics were managed. 81.16% (702/865) of the records were with accurate information. 74.36% (522/702) of the patients received normative services. Blood pressure was well controlled in 86.92% (299/344) of the hyperpietics, and FPG was well controlled in 85.46% (288/337) of the diabetics. The satisfaction rate was 94.58% (698/738). The satisfaction rate of patients which had accurate record was 98.69% (677/686), but of which had not was just 40.38% (21/52) (χ² = 320.52, P < 0.001). The satisfaction rate of patients which got normative services was 99.22% (508/512), and of which did not get was 97.13% (169/174) (χ² = 2.92, P = 0.087).
CONCLUSIONThe quality of managed chronic patients was well, and got obvious effect. Measures need to implement for increasing the management rate, accuracy and standardability of health management services for hyperpietic and diabetic.
