Objectives To investigate the proliferation and apoptosis of smooth muscle cells(SMCs) after implantation of NiTi radioactive stents. Methods Radioactive and nonradioactive stents were implanted in abdominal aortas of 76 rabbits.The proliferation and apoptosis of SMCs were observed using immunohistochemistry and TUNEL.Results (1) Neointima areas on radioactive stents were less than those on nonradioacvtive stents at 1-month and 3-month respectively (P0 05).(2)The expressions of PCNA were lower in radioactive stent groups at different times compared with those of controls(P0.05).Conclusions (1) Radioactive stents can reduce the neointima areas on the implanted stents.(2)Radioactive stents can inhibit the proliferation of SMCs.(3)Radioactive stents promote the apoptosis of SMCs.
3.Pay much attention to neovascular glaucoma caused by hypoperfusion retinopathy
Ophthalmology in China 2006;0(05):-
Neovascular glaucoma is a rare and severe complication of hypoperfusion retinopathy.The appearance of hypoperfu- sion retinopathy complicating neovascular glaucoma in ophthalmolscopy and fundus fluorescein angiography shows a special feature. Neovascular glaucoma occurs when new fibrovascular tissues proliferate onto the chamber angle and obstruct the trabecular meshwork. The stenosis or occlusion of internal carotid artery is the most common reason of hypoperfusion retinopathy in elder people.Early recog- nition and treatment of patients with carotid occlusive diseases may prevent more serious complications.
4. SCAR Molecular Identification of Polygonatum filipe
Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2019;54(20):1647-1652
OBJECTIVE: To establish a rapid molecular identification method for Polygonatum filipe species. METHODS: Polymorphism analysis on DNA of P. filipe and P. cyrtonema was performed by using inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) molecular markers. Differential ISSR and SRAP bands between the two species were sequenced and species-specific sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) primers were designed for the identification of P. filipe and P. cyrtonema. RESULTS: Under respective optimal annealing temperature, three pairs of SCAR primers can specifically amplify three fragments of 150, 354 and 518 bp only from P. filipe, respectively, not from P. cyrtonema. The SCAR-PCR test was simple and convinent to operate, and reproducible. The molecular identification technology based on SCAR markers was further validated by testing 8 samples of Polygonatum tubes sold in market. CONCLUSION: SCAR molecular technology developed in this study can be used for the assistant identification of P. filipe species.

Objective To analyze the effects of puerperium pelvic floor muscle training on pelvic floor muscle strength and its clinical significance. Methods One hundred postpartum women were included, with full-term singleton pregnancies and with complete follow-up records from Obstetrics Department of Peking University First Hospital between March 1, 2013 and October 31, 2013. Women with vaginal birth and cesarean birth commenced pelvic floor muscle training twice a day from 24 and 72 h after delivery, respectively. According to the different training frequencies, the subjects were divided into three groups: never-training group, occasional-training group (<6 times per week) and regular-training group (≥6 times per week). All patients received pelvic floor muscle strength measurement 6-8 weeks after parturition. And the strength of type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ pelvic floor muscle fiber was divided into 0, Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ and Ⅴgrade. The abnormal strength of typeⅠand typeⅡpelvic floor muscle fiber standed for the grades lower thanⅢ. We compared the general conditions, delivery modes and abnormal ratio of type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ pelvic floor muscle fiber among the three groups, analyzed the relativity between the level of pelvic floor muscle fiber strength and pelvic floor muscle training frequency, and analyzed the influential factors of pelvic floor muscle fiber strength. Statistical analyses were performed by one-way ANOVA, rank-sum test, Pearson χ2 test, Kruskal-Wallis nonparametric test, Nemenyi test, Spearman rank correlation analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis. Results There was no statistical difference in age, gestation at delivery, parity, body mass index before delivery, neonatal birth weight and delivery mode among the never-training group (21 cases), occasional-training group (30 cases) and regular-training group (49 cases) (all P > 0.05). There was no statistical difference in labor time of first, second and total stage and episiotomy rate among the vaginal birth cases of the three groups. The abnormal ratio of type Ⅰ muscle fiber strength among the three groups was 100% (21/21), 77% (23/30) and 6% (3/49), respectively, while that of type Ⅱ muscle fiber strength was 100% (21/21), 53% (16/30) and 20% (10/49), respectively. And there were significant statistical differences among the three groups (F=119.16 and 77.84, both P<0.01). Spearman rank correlation analysis indicated that the level of typeⅠand typeⅡmuscle fiber strength had a significant positive correlation with pelvic floor muscle training frequency (r=0.88 and 0.79, both P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that pelvic floor muscle training was an influential factor for pelvic floor muscle strength level (95%CI:0.000-0.193, P<0.01). Conclusions Puerperium pelvic floor muscle training can help enhance the tension force of pelvic floor muscle, might benefiting the postpartum recovery of pelvic floor muscle function.
