Objective To observe the role of cannabinoid receptor-2 (CB2) in acute experimental colitis in mice, and to explore its effect on the endoplasmic reticulum stress ( ERS ) in the intestinal mucosa . Methods 32 SPF mice were randomly divided into normal group,model group,CB2 agonist group and CB2 antagonist group. Disease activity index( DAI) and colon histopathological score( HS) were evaluatd. The levels of TNF-α and IL-10 in colon tissue were detected by ELISA. The expression of CB2 and ERS markers GRP78, CHOP in colon tissues were de-tected by immunohistochemical. The mRNA levels of GRP78 and CHOP were detected by RT-PCR. Results Com-pared with the normal group,the level of TNF-αwas significantly higher and the level of IL-10 was significantly low-er(P<0. 05) in the model group,the expressions of GRP78, CHOP and its mRNA were significantly higher(P<0. 05). Compared with the model group,the expression of CB2 in the CB2 agonist group was significantly higher(P<0. 05),the level of TNF-α dropped and the level of IL-10 increased(P<0. 05),and the expressions of GRP78, CHOP and its mRNA were significantly reduced(P<0. 05). The level of IL-10,TNF-α and ERS markers had no significant difference bewteen CB2 antagonist group and the model group ( P>0. 05 ) . Conclusion Severe endo-plasmic reticulum stress exists in intestinal mucosa of experimental colitis mice. The CB2 agonist activates CB2 ex-pression,reducing colitis in mice. Its mechanism may be related to inhibiting ERS in intestinal mucosa.

For the diathermancy of the seawater is much bigger than that of the air, and the heat dispersed from the body exceeds the heat produced by the body, the heat would be lost immediately when people fell into the cold seawater. The temperature of people would drop instantly to frozen stiff. So it has great signification to rescue the people dropped into the cold water at once. This paper will introduce how to rescue, examine, stabilize, insulate, finally transport the patient to the hospital, and some things that should be paid attention to during the whole process.

It has long been one significant focus in the field of surgery to reduce postoperative incisional complications.Recently,incisional negative pressure wound therapy (iNPWT),which was designed to reduce the incidence of incisional complications,has gradually been applied for primary incision closure.This article reviews the relevant basic and clinical studies to elucidate the mechanism of iNPWT and its clinical safety and efficacy,and answers some fundamental questions regarding clinical application of iNPWT.

Objective To develop a kind of tissue microarray (TMA) for the teaching of pathological experiment. Methods A series of human normal tissues from heart, lung, liver, stomach, intestine, etc as well as their matched disease tissues were collected and made into TMA parraffin blocks by tissue chip instrument. After section, the slides were stained by hematoxylin-eosin staining and covered by the coverslips which were marked with serial columns and rows. Results All the specimens were arranged in good order on TMA paraffin block and the slides were stained clearly. And the location of each specimen was marked distinctively on TMA slides. Conclusions Compared with classical tissue slides, the TMA slides for the teaching of pathological experiment have many advantages such as good compare, easy memorizing, low expend and simple making. Take together, the TMA for teaching might have a good perspective for application in the future.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the HPLC fingerprint for Blumea balsamifera and its fake B. riparia. METHODS:HPLC was performed on the column of Uitimate-C18 with mobile phase of acetonitrile-0.05% phosphoric acid(gradient elution)at a flow rate of 0.6 mL/min,detection wavelength was 270 nm,column temperature was 25 ℃,and injection volume was 7 μL. Using quercetin as a reference,Similarity Evaluation Software for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine(2004 A edition)was used for the common peaks identification and similarity analysis of 16 batches of B. balsamifera and 5 batches of B. ri-paria. RESULTS:There were 61 common peaks in the 16 batches of B. balsamifera,similarity degree was 0.931-0.995,which was higher than the similarity degree of 5 batches of B. riparia. CONCLUSIONS:The established fingerprint can provide reference for the identification and quality evaluation of B. balsamifera.

AIM: To observe the efficacy and safety of small incision manual nuncleofragmentation technology in hard-nucleus cataract.METHODS: Fifty-four patients (54 eyes) were performed with small incision manual nucleofragmentation and intraocular lens implantation.Uncorrected-visual acuity,corrected-visual acuity and astigmatism were measured before and after surgery.Anterior segment of eye,retina,surgical complications were observed.RESULTS: Preoperative uncorrected vision(LogMAR) was 1.095±0.171,corrected vision (LogMAR) was 0.994±0.158.Postoperative uncorrected vision(LogMAR) was 0.321±0.214 and corrected vision(LogMAR) was 0.276±0.179 at 1wk after operation.Both had statistical significance compared with uncorrected vision(LogMAR) (t=27.052,P<0.01) and corrected vision (LogMAR)(t=29.211,P<0.01) after cataract operation.Average preoprative corneal astigmatism was 0.93±0.34D,average postoprative astigmatism was 0.95±0.29D at 3mo,there was no statistical significance of astigmatism before and after surgery(t=1.048,P>0.05).No severe complications occurred in all cases.CONCLUSION: The technology of small incision manual nuncleofragmentation in hard-nucleus cataract is proved to be safe and effective.

Purpose To investigate the effect of anti-HER-2 engineered antibody chA21 on the angiogenesis in nude mice xenografts of human ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells that overexpresses HER-2.Methods An animal model with SKOV3 cells involved in nude mice was established and the mice were randomized into control group and chA21 group;chA21 was administrated via caudal vein for 5 weeks, meanwhile the same volume of chA21 buffer was injected in control group.The mice were terminated after 5 weeks and the xenografts dislodged,VEGF and DLL4 expression in two groups were quantitatively analyzed by immunohistochemistry on tissue microarray sections combined with a micro-image analyzing system, and microvessel density (MVD) values were compared between the two groups by immunohistochemical staining of CD31.Results The expression of VEGF, DLL4 and MVD values in chA21 group were lower than those in control group (P<0.05).Conclusion chA21 inhibits the angiogenesis of transplantations of human ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells effectively.

Objecfive To compare the clinical effectiveness of three different fixation methods for peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC).Methods Totally 120 patients requiting PICCs were randomized into suture securement group(group A),tape securement group(group B),and sutureless adhesive-hacked device (StatIock)securement group(group C),with 40 patients in each group.Patients were followed up throughout their entire catheter course,and the securement effectiveness,catheter-related complications,risk of skin injury,and patients'satisfaction were observed.Results The rate of catheter migration without function loss in group B (57.5%)was significantly higherthan in group A(12.5%,P=0.000)and in group C(7.5%,P=0.000).Catheter dislodgment rate in group B(15.0%)was also significantly higher than group A(0,P=0.034)and group C(0,JP=0.034).Phlebitis documented during their catheter course in group B(25.0%)were more than in group A(7.5%,P=0.034)and in group C(5.0%,P=0.012).In addition,the rate of cellulitis in group A was significantly higher than group C(20.0%vs.2.5%,P=0.034).The rate of skin injury in group A 0.005).Nearly half of patients in group A (52.5%)complained irritation and/or pain at the sucure site,which was significantly higher than in other two groups ( both P = 0.000 ).The patients' satisfaction rate was significantly lower in group A (12.0% ) than in the other two groups ( both P = 0.000), documented highest in group C (90.0%) (group C vs.group B, P = 0.004).Conclusions The availability of sutureless adhesive-backed de vice StatLock provides an alternative for securement of PICCs.It performs as well as suture securement in catheterfixing.Meanwhile, it can prevent catheter-related complications such as migration and dislodgment Furthermore, it avoids skin injuries during catheter fixation or securement.
