AIM:To detect the muscle strength and endurance of healthy young people with different sport levels using isokinetic testing technique,so as to explore the characteristics of trunk muscle function. METHODS:①120 volunteer freshmen of Grade 2005 including 60 males and 60 females were selected from Capital Institute of Physical Education,and were divided into three groups:general group,physical training group and second-class athlete group(n =40,half male and female). Cybex6000 isokinetic testing system(U.S.A) was used. ②The muscle strength of flexors and extensors trunk muscle was measured at 60?/second and 120?/second and the endurance at 120?/second. ③Peak torque,flexors/extensors peak torque ratio,endurance ratio and recovery ratio were evaluated. RESULTS:①The peak torque values of male extensors in 3 groups were higher than those of flexors;with the increase in testing velocity,the peak torque value of extensor and flexors was decreased,especially the extensor. The peak torque value of general group was lower than that of physical training group and second class athlete group(P 0.05). The change in peak torque value of female extensor and flexors was the same to males. The flexors/extensors peak torque ratio at 60?/second and 120?/second of males was less than 1,but females more than 1. ②Under the same testing velocity,the endurance ratio and recovery ratio of extensor in 3 groups were higher than those of flexors. CONCLUSION:Compared with physical training students and second class athletes,significant decrease in the waist and back muscle strength and unbalance of extensor and flexors strength are found in general students. The muscle strength and endurance of extensor in students with different sport levels are inferior to those of flexors.

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients experiencing protective mechanical ventilation, is associated with a marked mortality reduction. However, the incidence of acute cor pulmonale (ACP) in ARDS patients has recently been reported to range between 22% and 25%, as well as a trend for higher mortality. Therefore, the mechanical ventilation strategy is proposed, not only based on the protection of the lung, but also focused on the impact on the right ventricle function. Currently, point-of-care ultrasound has been widely practiced in a variety of clinical setting, which plays more and more important role in the early detection and management of ARDS and its complications. A retrospective study concerning the incidence, pathophysiology and risk factors for ACP patients in ARDS was done to analysis the application of lung ultrasound and echocardiography combined with lung ultrasound in clinical hemodynamics monitoring, and so as to optimize the ventilation setting to protect the function of lung and right ventricle. Further exploration of effective improvement of the pulmonary vascular and right ventricle function the goal-directed ultrasound approach, and the diagnosis and treatment flow is expected.

Mechanical ventilation is not only an important treatment method of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS),but also one of the basic treatments in the intensive care unit (ICU).However,mechanical ventilation itself can cause or aggravate acute lung injury,which is called ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI).Currently,clinical pathogenesis of VILI includes four categories such as barotrauma,volutrauma,atelectrauma and hiotrauma.The pathogenesis of mechanical injury has been widely accepted,but the biological injury pathogenesis is unclear.With further research,we found that in the late stage VILI patients occured proliferation of puhnonary fibrosis,which may be formed by partial epithelial-mesenchymal transdifferentiation (EMT).Further study of specific pathogenesis of biotrauma and ARDS pulmonary fibrosis proliferation could provide new ideas for the clinical treatment of VILI.

Objective To discuss the systematic training method for new nurses in central sterile supply department(CSSD),in order to improve the training effects of new nurses and special practice ability,and make them to be qualified for jobs in CSSD.Methods 18 new nurses in CSSD were divided into the control group and the experimental group with 9 nurses in each group.The experimental group adopted systematic training method combining with unit tests and comprehensive evaluation.The control group chose the traditional training method.The testing results were compared between two groups.Results The experimental group all passed through the unit evaluation and comprehensive evaluation,could work independently after the training,got excellent achievement in comprehensive assessment of the department after 3 months on-the-job,and could finish all the work and solve various emergencies.4 passengers failed in unit assessment in the control group,and 3 failed in the comprehensive evaluation.The average results in the experimental group were obviously higher than that of the control group.Conclusions Scientific training content,the systematic training method,comprehensive evaluation method can avoid the blindness and arbitrariness in training and improve training effect.The implementation of unit access system and post access system in standardized training of new nurses can improve the study enthusiasm and strengthen the risk and responsibility consciousness of nurses,which is beneficial to the growth of new nurses and professional value guidance.

To observe the effect of Astragali Radix polysaccharides (APS) on the learning and memory functions of aged rats, in order to explore its mechanism for improving the learning and memory functions. Natural aging female SD rats were selected in the animal model and randomly divided into the control group, the APS low-dose group (50 mg x kg(-1)), the APS high-dose group (150 mg x kg(-1)) and the piracetam-treated group (560 mg x kg(-1)). They were orally administered with the corresponding drugs for consecutively 60 days. Besides, a young control group was set. The learning and memory functions of the rats were tested by the open-field test and the Morris water maze task. The Western-blot method was used to observe the levels of relevant neural plasticity protein N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDA receptor) in hippocampus, calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase II (CaMK II), protein kinase (PKA), the phosphorylation level of CAMP response element binding protein (CREB) and the protein expression of brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF). In this study, the authors found that the learning and memory functions and the hippocampus neural plasticity protein expression of the aged rat group were much lower than that of the young control group (P < 0.01). Compared with the aged rat group, the APS group showed the significant improvement in the impaired learning and memory functions of aged rats and the up-regulation in the hippocampus neural plasticity protein expression. The results showed that APS may improve the learning and memory functions of aged rats by increasing the expressions of relevant neural plasticity proteins.

Objective: To observe the effect of 2 Hz electroacupuncture (EA) on long term depression (LTD) of synaptic transmission in the spinal dorsal horn in rats with neuropathic pain, so as to explore the central mechanisms of the antinociceptive effects of 2 Hz electroacupuncture on neuropathic pain. Methods: The neuropathic pain models were produced by tight ligation of the L5/L6 spinal nerves in Sprague Dawley rats. The C fiber evoked field potentials in the spinal dorsal horn were recorded with extracellular recording techniques. The parameters of the electroacupuncture were as follows: frequency of 2 Hz, wavelength of 0.6 ms, intensity of 1,2,3 mA lasting 10 min for each intensity, stimulation time of 30 min. The positive stimulating electrode was placed in acupoint “sanyinjiao” and the negative electrode in “zusanli”. Results: (1) 2 Hz electroacupuncture significantly decreased the amplitudes of C fiber evoked field potentials in the spinal dorsal horn in rats with neuropathic pain to (49.4?0.6)% of the control, compared with that (100.1?1.2) % of the control before EA (unpaired t test, P

Objective To investigate the effects of valproic acid (VPA) on acute lung injury induced by Lipopolysaccharide in rats. Method The rat model of acute lung injury was made by intravenous injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The pathological changes of lung were observed under light microscope and inflammatory cytokines in serum detected by using ELISA to judge whether the model was successfully done or not. All rats were divided into three groups as per the different intervention agents employed. Rats in control group were treated with intravenous injection of NS in dose of 5 ml/kg, rats in LPS group were exposed to LPS with dosage of 10 mg/kg and model rats in LPS + VPA group were treated with VPA in dose of 300 mg/kg. The rats were sacrificed 6 h after LPS or NS administration. The blood PaO2 ,A-aDO2 and blood lactic acid (Lac) were measured, the lungs were removed for observing the histopathological changes and determination of wet/dry lung weight (W/D) ratio and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity as well as albumin concentration in broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) . Seurm was collected to determine the concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β( IL-1 β) by using LISA 6 h later. All data were presented in ((x)±s). One-way ANOVA was used for comparing differences between groups. Results Compared with acute lung injury group, the blood PaO2 (94. 50 ± 4.38 ) in rats of LPS + VPA group was higher, whereas A-aDO2 ( 13.50 ± 4.77 ) and blood lac( 2.13 ± 1. 02 ) in LPS + VPA group were lower. VPA significantly lowered W/D (5.33 ±0. 12) ratio and MPO activity (4.38 ±0. 42) in the lung. Albumin concentration ( 1. 260 ± 0. 039 ) in BALF, and the levels of TN F-α( 2 410 ±320 )and IL-1β( 1 220 ± 162 )in serum were lower in LPS + VPA group. The histological changes of lung injury were lessened by VPA. Conclusions Valproic acid has protective effects against lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury in rats.

BACKGROUND: To search for an alloxenogeneic bone with good load bearing function and osteoblastic activity for treating bone defects is an important study issue. We have made a comparative study on its biome chanical characteristics and found that there was no significant difference in maximum load stress, maximum pressure as compared with fresh bone of the same size. Clinicians are concerned about the osteoblastic activity and whether the osteoblastic activity can be reserved after human allogenous a cellular bone (HAB) loaded with bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). OBJECTIVE: To investigate the experimental effect of HAB loaded with induced BMSCs, and observe the cellular adherence and growth as well as detect its osteoblastic activity. DESIGN: Single sample experiment. SETTING: Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University. MATERIALS: This experiment was conducted at the Experimental Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University between January 2003 and August 2004. HAB was obtained from fresh corpse iliac bones (donated voluntarily). METHODS: Connective tissues and cell compounds of the iliac bones were removed by processing with hydroperoxide andether solution and sterilized for preparing HAB. BMSCs from living femoral shaft bone marrow were cultured immediately in ordinary and mineralized medium containing DMEM, fetal bovine serum, dexomethasone, β-glycerophophate and ascor bic acid. Proliferation and differentiation of bone stromal cells were deter mined by detecting the level of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (OCN) in the culture medium. Induced bone stromal cells solution was condensed and implanted within HAB scaffold. Cellular osteoblastic activ ity was determined through morphological observation under the light mi croscope and electron microscope as well as biochemical index detection. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Detection results of ALP and OCN of BMSCs/HAB composite. ② Histological observation results of BMSCs/ HAB composite. RESULTS: ① Iliac bone block cells were cleaned with good reservation of bone matrix. ② The level of ALP and OCN of MSCs was higher after in ducing for 8 days than that in control group [MSCs after induction: (181.54±40.01) nkat/L, (7.2±1.3) μg/L. There was no method to detect the level in control group, P ＜ 0.05]. ③ BMSCs were adhered and grew well in HAB scaffold. CONCLUSION: HAB loaded with induced BMSCs has an excellent os teogenic function in vitro and shows an effective potential as a good bone tissue engineering material.
