Objective:This paper aims to demonstrate the maxillary mucosa restoration after operation to the nasal fungal sinusitis. Methods Observation by microscopic, transmission electron microscopic and scanning electron microscopic was done to the same parts in the maxillary mucosa 3-4 months before and after the endoscopic sinus surgery in the 24 cases of the nasal fungal sinusitis during 2003-2005. Result: Before the operation, all the cases demonstrated epithelia shedding, proliferation, squamous metaplasia, glandular and fibrous tissue proliferation and lymphocytes infiltration. The microtubule was abnormal and mitochondria diminished,3-4 months after operation, the cavity was clear and smooth and the epithelia complete. The cilia average increased and the cilia lined in the same direction. The structure of microtubules was clear. The mitochondria was elongated and dense. Conclusion: There was no significant difference in the damage on ultramicrostructure of the maxillary mucosa between the chronic nasal sinusitis and chronic nasal fungal sinusitis. It is crucial in the successful recovery that the operation gives a thorough clean to the fungal clot and sinus aeration, and that good cleaning and sinus aeration are maintained after the operation. The ultramicrostructure restoration and the function recovery of mucosa will be achieved after careful cleaning for 3-4 months after operation.

Acute cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury of rabbits was produced by permanently occluding the vertebral arteries and temporarily clamping the common carotid arteries for 30 min. Beta-endorphin immunoreactive substance ( ir beta-endorphin ) content were measured in cerebrospinal fluid at pre-ischemia and after ischemia and reperfusion stages. In control group, the content of ir beta-endorphin significantly increased (1.01?0.52 mg/L, P

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,diagnosis and treatment of senile primary central nervous system lymphoma.Methods The patients were divided into two groups,one group of the patients underwent chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment following surgical resection,the other received a combined treatment of chemotherapy and radiotherapy only.The survival were analyzed with log-rank test.Results All of the lesions showed the iso-to slightly high density in the CT scan,and the boundary was unclear,surrounded by edema.Contrast enhancement was found in all of the patients.MRI showed iso-to low T1 and iso-to slightly high T2 signal intensity to the adjacent gray matter.The lesions were surrounded by the edema belt.Contrast enhancement such as rim enhancement or homogeneous enhancement was found in all.The pathological diagnosis was B cell lymphoma(n=32)and T cell lymphoma(n=4).In addition,all of the patients were excluded out of HIV infection and their immune function was normal.The median survival time of the group receiving surgery combination treatment and the group receiving just chemotherapy and radiotherapy were 19 months and 14 months,respectively.There was no significant statistics between the survival time of the two groups.Conclusion It is necessary to differentiate primary central nervous system lymphoma from glioma,metastatic tumor,meningoma,and so on.The surgical resection seems no help for those senile central nervous system lymphoma patients with multi-focus.The diagnosis should be suspected after MRI and obtained by stereotactic biopsy in order to avoid an unnecessary extend of surgery in primary central nervous system lymphoma(PCNSL).

Objective To understand the status quo of medical graduates' professional faith and to evaluate the education methods. Methods Questionnaire survey combined with expert inter-view were conducted from two aspects: professional faith condition and educational methods. Medical graduates from an affiliated hospital of a university in Shanghai were investigated in this survey and 392 copies of effective questionnaires were analyzed comparatively. Results 92.6%(363/392) students regarded extreme events as the main factor that influence their further employment. 14.8%(58/392) students had career planning. 79.6%(312/392) students achieved self-improvement from strengthening learning and training. Salary was the main factor that affect medical graduates' career choice (4.47 points). 75.5%(296/392) students considered that the existing professional faith education was out of fashion. 85.5%(335/392) of students thought that education methods should be improved. Strengthen-ing relevant education career planning was considered as the most valuable content (4.22 points) and the most effective form was group learning (4.53 points). Conclusions The main reasons for devia-tion and dissatisfaction are:social factor, lack of professional faith, unique status and obsolete way of education. Professional faith education should take the above factors into consideration.

Objective To investigate the effect of inhibition of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in ischemic preconditioning-induced cerebral ischemia tolerance.Methods A total of 120 adult male SpragueDawley rats were randomly allocated into three groups:sham operation,global cerebral ischemic and ischemic preconditioning groups (ischemic preconditioning for 3 minutes,and global cerebral ischemia for 15 minutes after 2 days).Three time points (day 1,day 3 and day 7) were set.Sugawara method was used to observe the changes of neurological behavior in rats.TUNEL staining was used to observe the conditions of cortical neuronal apoptosis.Immunofluorescence staining and Western blot analysis were used to detect the expression levels of ERS-related protein CHOP,GRP78,and caspase-12.Results The neurological behavior score showed that the sham operation group did not have neurological deficits.Both the global cerebral ischemic group and the ischemic preconditioning group had obvious neurological deficits,and they improved gradually with the passage of time,but after modeling,the neurological scores at each time point in the global cerebral ischemic were significantly lower than those in the ischemic preconditioning group:at day 1∶11.00 ±0.63 vs.14.33 ±0.33 (t =21.74,P＝0.001); at day 3∶ 12.17±0.31vs.15.17±0.48 (t=27.93,P =0.000); at day 7:14.67±0.49 vs.16.33 ±0.33 (t =7.81,P=0.020).TUNEL staining showed that at day 7 after ischemia,the positive cell count per mm2 in the sham operation,global cerebral ischemic and ischemic preconditioning groups were 4.83 ±1.85vs.395.67± 43.43 and 146.17± 27.38 respectively (F=23.62,P=0.001).The ischemic preconditioning group was significantly lower than that in the global cerebral ischemic group (P =0.001).Immunofluorescence staining showed that at day 7 after ischemia,the numbers of positive cells of CHOP (26.50±3.89vs.82.33±4.25; P=0.000),GRP78 (15.00±2.02vs.35.67±2.99; t=0.000),and caspase-12 (22.33 ± 2.76 vs.66.50± 7.25; P=0.000) in the ischemic preconditioning group were significantly less than those in the global cerebral ischemic group.Western blotting showed that at day 7 after ischemia,the expression levels of CHOP (1.22 ± 0.38 vs.3.22 ± 0.51; t =24.50,P =0.001),GRP78 (1.78 ± 0.45 vs.3.16 ± 0.76; t =14.29,P =0.005),and caspase-12 (2.89 ± 0.53 vs.5.96 ± 0.67; t =77.73; P =0.000) in the ischemic preconditioning group were significantly lower than those in the global cerebral ischemic group.Conclusions Ischemic preconditioning demonstrated a neuroprotective effect for the second lethal ischemia,its mechanism may be associated with the relief of ERS and downregulation of ERS-related protein.

Objective To investigate the effect of ketamine on the phosphodiesterase (PDE) activities in lung tissue and leukocytes in rats. Methods Twenty SD rats weighing 140-160 g were randomly divided into two groups of 10 animals each : (A) ketamine group received intraperitoneal ketamine 10 mgkg-1 and (B) control group received equal volume of normal saline ip. Thirty minutes after ketamine administration the animals were sacrificed by exsanguination. Leukocytes were separated and 25 mg of lung tissue was obtained for determination of PDE activities by HPLC. Results The PDE activities in both lung tissue and leukocytes were lower in ketamine group than those in control group ( P

Objective To explore immune effects of HB vaccine and relative strategies of controlling hepatitis B in adults of different ages, genders, and different anti-HBs levels before immunization. Methods In Shaoxing city, 1055 healthy adults aged 18 to 50 with HBsAg negative were randomly selected and inoculated with 10?g/ml indigenous CHO HB vaccine according to the programme of 0,1,6 months. Results 835 adults completed the whole programme, and the total immunization coverage rate was 85.12%. Before and after immunization,the positive rates of anti-HBs were 52.10% and 98.44% respectively, and anti-HBsGMT rose from 14.32mU/ml to 413.98mU/ml. For the two groups, anti-HBsGMT=0 and 0

Objective Analyze hepatitis B virus(HBV)infection condition in adults,and provide scientific basis for building immune effects of HB vaccine in adults.Methods In Shaoxing city,randomly select 1309 adults between the age of 18 and 50,draw their venous blood and test HBsAg,anti-HBs and anti-HBc.Results 1236 adults completed the test and the testing rate was 94.42%.The positive rate of HBsAg was 7.61%,9.92% in men and 4.53% in women.Positive rates of HBsAg of different genders and ages showed significant difference(?2=12.49,P

Objective To evaluate the value of upright standing myelography in the diagnosis of lumbar disc herniation (LDH). Methods One hundred and ninety six patients with LDH diagnosed by CT or MRI were examined by upright standing myelography before surgery. Results The most diagnosis of myelography were accorded with CT or MRI, but 7 patients of myelography with LDH at L4-5 showed compression of nerve roots, while the images of these on CT or MRI only showed disc bulge or protrusion without nerve root compression. Conclusions Myelography in the upright standing position is perhaps superior to CT or MRI for the diagnosis of LDH, especially LDH at L4-5 with nerve root compression.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a term of Von Recklinghausenan.It is an autosomal dominant inherited disease which derived by neural crest cell.Prevalence of this disease is 1/3000 1/3500 and is a disease with the highest mutation rate.The pathogenesis of neurofibromatosis type 1 is associated with the deficiency of NF1 gene.Recently,the genetics and genomics research of neurofibromatosis make a great progress.With the development of gene linkage and position cloning technology,the gene sequence of neurofibromatosis type 1 has been found.Recent research of genetics and genomics of NF1 and the structure and function,abnormal expression,the relation of genotype and phenotype,the mutation sensitivity domain of NF1 gene were reviewed.
