OBJECTIVE:To study pharmacodynamics of different approaches of using low peptide of E’ jiao. METHODS: Anemia model rabbits and immunosuppressed model mice were induced by injecting with phenylhydrazine hydrochloride subcutaneously and hydrocortisone via i.p. respectively then treated with low peptide of E’ jiao (1～3 kD) via i.p., low peptide of E’ jiao of lower than 5 k and 5% E’ jiao solution via i.g. The values of Hb, RBC, WBC in model rabbits were measured after 7 days of medication and spleen weigh index was detected after 6 days of medication. The healthy mice were treated with low peptide of E’ jiao (1～3 kD) via i.p., low peptide of E’ jiao of lower than 5 k via i.g. and glucose solution via i.g. Then the load swimming time was determined after 14 days of medication. RESULTS: Chemical medicine-induced anemia was improved by 1～3 kD low peptide of E’ jiao increasing the amount of Hb. Low peptide of E’ jiao of lower than 5 k could not produce such an good effect on anemia but was eaqul to oral E’ jian in increasing the value of RBC, WBC. Low peptide of E’ jiao was helpful to or had effect on anti-fatigue and remarkably increased spleen index of mice. CONCLUSION: Low peptide of E’ jiao used by different approaches can strengthen immunity.

Objective: To investigate the implementation and evaluate the effectiveness of health management services for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Urumqi City from 2017 to 2021, so as to provide the reference for enhancing T2DM patients management. Methods: Data on the rates of record establishment, health management and standardized management for T2DM patients, and blood glucose control rate in managed patients in Urumqi City from 2017 to 2021 were collected through the quarterly reports on basic public health service management from the Weining Health Platform System. The trends in the four management indicators, and the differences between urban and rural areas were analyzed. Results: The rates of record establishment, health management and blood glucose control rate in managed patients in Urumqi City were 46.94%, 38.37% and 59.92%, respectively, showing upward trends from 2017 to 2021 (all P<0.05). The rate of standardized management was 75.89%, showing a downward trend (P<0.05). The rate of record establishment was higher in urban areas than in rural areas (47.76% vs. 40.56%, P<0.05). The rates of standardized management and blood glucose control in managed patients were lower in urban areas than in rural areas (75.18% vs. 81.46%, 58.93% vs. 67.64%, both P<0.05). The rate of health management was 38.39% in urban areas and 38.24% in rural areas, with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). The trends in the rates of record establishment, health management and standardized management in both urban and rural areas were consistent with those in the overall population. Conclusions From 2017 to 2021, the rates of record establishment, health management and blood glucose control in managed patients in Urumqi City showed upward trends, while the rate of standardized management exhibited a downward trend. There were urban-rural differences in the rates of record establishment, standardized management and blood glucose control in managed patients.

Objecttve To compare the positional and volumetric differences of planning target volumes(PTVs)based on axial three-dimensional CT(3D-CT)and four-dimensional CT(4D-CT)for the primary tumor of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods Sixteen NSCLC patients with lesions located in the upper lobe and 12 patients with lesions in middle and lower lobes,totally 28 patients, initially underwent three-dimensional CT scans followed by 4D-CT scans of the thorax under normal free breathing.PTVvector was defined on gross tumor volume (GTV) contoured on 3D-CT and its motion vector. The clinical target volumes(CTVs)were created by adding 7 mm to GTVs,then, internal target volume (ITVs)were produced by enlarging CTVs isotropically based on the individually measured amount of motion in the 4D-CT,lastly,PTVs were created by adding 3 mm setup margin to ITVs. PTV4D was defined on the fusion of CTVs on all phases of the 4D data.The CTV wag generated by adding7 mm to the GTV on each phase.then,PIVs were produced by fusing CTVs on 10 phases and adding 3 mm setup margin.The position of the target center,the volume of target and the degree of inclusion(DI)were compared reciprocally between the PTVvector and the PTV 4D The difference of the position,volume and degree of inclusion of the targets between PTVvecter and PTV4D were compared,and the relevance between the relative characters of the targets and the three-dimensional vector was analyzed based on the groups of the patients. Results The median of the 3 D motion vector for the lesions in the upper lobe was 2.8 mm, significantly lower than that for the lesions in the middle and lower lobe ( 7.0 mm, z = - 3. 485, P < 0. 05 ). In the upper lobe group there was only significant spatial difference between the PTVvector and PTV4D targets in the center coordinate at the x axe (z = -2. 010, P < 0. 05 ), while in the middle and lower lobes there was only significant spatial difference between the PTVvector and PTV4D targets in the center coordinates at the z axe (z = -2. 136,P <0.05). The median of ratio of PTV4D and PTVvector, of the upper lobe group was 0. 75, significantly higher than that of the middle and lower lobes group (0. 52, z = - 2. 949, P < 0. 05 ).A significant correlation was found for the motion vector and the ratio of PTV and PTV4D in both groups ( r = - 0. 638, - 0. 850, P < 0. 05 ). For all patients, the median of D[ of PTV4D in PTVvector was 66. 39% ,while the median of DI of PTVvector, in PTV4D was 99. 55% , both showed a positive significant correlation with the motion vector (r = -0. 814,0. 613 ,P < 0. 05). Conclusions PTV4D defined based on 4D-CT simulation images is obviously less than PTV defined based on 3D-CT simulation images. The ratio and DI of both targets are related with the three-dimensional motion vector of the tumor.

BACKGROUND:There is no unified measure of bone tissue mechanical property test at present. The study concerning traditional sensor for fracture displacement had some problems such as low precision, and high consumption cost.
OBJECTIVE:To measure the displacement of plate and screw after internal fixation for fracture of humerus using digital speckle method.
METHODS:A total of eight humeral specimens were taken. The steel plate fixation model in the humerus 1/2 was made. The specimens were fixed using eight-hole steel plate, and four screws were fixed on each end of fracture line. Five conditions of experimental model were designed for comparative analysis. Condition a:compression plate fixation group (not saw off, to simulate fracture healing). Condition b:on the basis of sawing off in condition a, one screw was removed on the proximal end. Condition c:on the basis of condition b, one screw was removed on the distal end. Condition d:on the basis of condition c, one screw was removed on the distal end. Condition e:on the basis of d, one screw was removed on the distal end. The screws were numbered No. 1-8 from top to bottom. That is, the screws on upper fracture line were numbered No. 1-4, and those on the lower fracture line were numbered No. 5-8. The specimens were instal ed on electronic universal testing machine, and loaded 100 N and 500 N. The displacement was calculated using the related software.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Significant differences in total displacement were detected under different loads (F=49.155, P<0.001). With increased load, the total displacement of the fourth and fifth screws gradual y increased under five kinds of conditions. These indicated that the two screws on the two ends of the fracture line endured more stresses (stress concentration), and easily broke. It would be better to choose the screw with the screw diameter of 1-2.5 mm bigger than the present one in order to increase its stability to avoid the breakage of screws.

Objective To investigate the correlation of position movement of primary tumor with interested organs and skin markers,and to investigate the correlation of volume variation of primary tumors and lungs during different respiration phases for patients with lung cancer at free breath condition scanned by four-dimensional CT (4DCT) simulation.Methods 16 patients with lung cancer were scanned at free breath condition by simulation 4DCT which connected to a respiration-monitoring system.A coordinate system was created based on image of T5 phase,gross tumor volume (GTV) and normal tissue structures of 10 phases were contoured.The three dimensional position variation of them were measured and their correlation were analyzed,and the same for the volume variation of GTV and lungs of 10 respiratory phases.Results Movement range of lung cancer in different lobe differed extinct:0.8 - 5.0 mm in upper lobe,5.7 -5.9 mm in middle lobe and 10.2 - 13.7 mm in lower lobe,respectively.Movement range of lung cancer in three dimensional direction was different:z-axis 4.3 mm ± 4.3 mm＞ y-axis 2.2 mm ± 1.0 mm ＞ x-axis 1.7 mm ± 1.5 mm ( x2 =16.22,P =0.000),respectively.There was no statistical significant correlation for movement vector of GTV and interested structures (r =-0.50 - -0.01,P =0.058 - -0.961 ),nor for volume variation of tumor and lung ( r =0.23,P =0.520 ).Conclusions Based on 4DCT,statistically significant differences of GTV centroid movement are observed at different pulmonary lobes and in three dimensional directions.So individual 4DCT measurement is necessary for definition of internal target volume margin for lung cancer.

Objective To investigate whether two-dimension speckle tracking imaging(2D-STI) and ICAM-1-targeted myocardial contrast echocardiography could detect the acute cellular rejection of heart transplantation at the early stage.Methods The abdominal heterotopic heart transplantation model was successfully established using Wistar and SD rats.Forty-eight rats were divided into allografts (ALLO) group (n =24) and isografts(ISO) group (n =24).Echocardiography,2D-STI and ICAM-1 targeted myocardial contrast echocardiography were performed at 1,3,5 day after transplantation respectively.After ultrasound imaging,transplanted hearts were harvested for Hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunofluorescence histochemistry to evaluate acute cellular rejection and ICAM-1 expression.Results There were obvious difference between ALLO group and ISO group in echocardiographic parameters at 5 days after transplantation surgery (all P ＜0.05).Compared with those in ISO group,global circumferential strain and strain rate (GCS,GCSr),and circumferential strain of endo-myocardium (CSendo) decreased in ALLO group at day 3 post-transplantation (all P＜0.05).Compared with those in ISO group,all strain parameters in ALLO decreased significantly at postoperative day 5 (all P＜ 0.05).Myocardial contrast echocardiography using ICAM-1-targeted microbubbles showed that the video intensity in ALLO group was significant higher than that in ISO group at postoperative day 3 and day 5 (all P＜0.05).Conclusions 2D-STI and myocardial contrast echocardiography using ICAM-1-targeted microbubbles are sensitive and useful for detecting heart transplant acute rejection at the early stage.

Objective To summarize the etiology and clinical features of recurrent acute pancreatitis (RAP) in the recent l0 years in China.Methods Pubmed,Medline,EMbase,CNKI,Wan fang and VIP database were searched for relevant articles published from January 2001 to December 2016 using Pancreatitis,Recurrence and Etiology as term index words.Meta analysis was conducted by RevManS.3 software.Results A total of 16 studies involving 3 980 patients (RAP n =1 231,AP n =2 749) were included.The age and sex were not correlated with AP recurrence.Biliary diseases,alcohol,inappropriate diets were associated with AP recurrence,but these were not the factors influencing RAP.Hyperlipidemia was responsible for the occurrence of pancreatitis in 17.00％ of RAP and 10.20％ of AP,with statistically significant difference (P =0.002).Hyperlipidemia was an important risk factor influencing AP relapse.The percentage of SAP in AP and RAP patients was 16.83％ and 24.13％,respectively,and the complication rate was 11.43％ and 15.13％,and the percentage of jaundice was 28.20％ and 32.53％.Those in RAP were higher than those in AP,and the differences were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Hyperlipidemia was the predominant risk factor for RAP in China,and the patients with RAP tend to progress into SAP,and have jaundice and complications.
