BACKGROUND: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a neurophysiological therapy (NPT) of refractory epilepsy, which can control the seizure by stimulating the vagus nerve stem in cervical part.OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of intermittent left-side VNS on seizure of epileptic animals, and provide theoretic basis for the interaction of somatic information and that of internal organs.DESIGN: Observation study.SETTING: Department of Neurobiology, Capital University of Medical Science.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in the Laboratory of Electrophysiology in Department of Neurobiology, Capital University of Medical Science from March 2000 to September 2002. Thirty-four healthy adult SD rats and 8 rabbits, weighting (220-250) g and (2.2-2.5) kg respectively were selected.METHODS: ①Ten rats were intramuscularly injected with (150 000-160 000) U of penicillin (PCN). VNS effects on epileptiform activities of rats were studied by observing the changes in electrocorticogram (ECoG)and behavior of rats before and after VNS.②(0.24-0.48) mg of PCN was injected into the hippocampus of another 8 rabbits to induce epilepsy, and VNS effects on ECoG of epileptic rats were observed. ③Seizures of 16 rats were induced by Kainic acid, and changes in discharge activity of hippocampal neuron, ECoG and behavior of epileptic rats were observed after VNS. ④Seizures of 8 rabbits were induced by cortical injection of strychnine with microinjector, and VNS effects on ECoG of rabbits with epilepsy induced by acute cortical injury were observed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①VNS effects on seizure of rats with epilepsy induced by PCN. ②VNS effects on seizure of rats with epilepsy induced by Kainic acid. ③VNS effects on epileptiform ECoG of rabbits with epilepsy induced by strychnine.RESULTS: A total of 34 rats and 8 rabbits were involved in the analysis of results. VNS could remarkably suppress the seizure of epileptic animals,and epileptiform ECoG, epileptiform discharges of hippocampal neuron and behavior significantly changed with the total effective rate greater than 50%. The total effective rate of VNS before seizure was greater than 80%.In epilepsy group indoeed by intramuscular injection of PCN, ECoG and behavior were markedlly aneliorated respectively for 40% and 50% of rats.In epilepsy group induced by injection of PCN in hippocampus, the ECoG was siguificantly ameliorated in 50% rats. In epileptic rabbit group induced by partial injection of strychnine via cerebral cortex, the epilepti form wave iu ECoG was controlled by VNS in 50 % of animals.CONCLUSION: VNS can effectively suppress seizure of epileptic animals. The antiepileptic effect of VNS is associated with cerebral cortical aud hippcampal neurons. Somatic epileptiform activity could be effectively inhibited by the integration of visceral afferent information in cortical and hippocampal parts.

Electrocorticographic(ECoG), electrical activition of hippocampal neurons and behaviour were observed to evidence the effects of left intermittent VNS .ResultsVNS could suppress seizures in animal models with epilepsy. There were significant changes in epileptiform ECoG, discharges of hippcampal neuron and behaviour. ConclusionSomatic seizure can be effectively inhibited by visceral afferent inputs through integration in cortical and hippocampal parts.

Objective To study and correlate serum bilirubin and regulatory T cell (Treg) levels in patients with bile duct stone.Methods Flow-cytometry and Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Elisa) were used to study the peripheral blood expression level of Tregs and the bilirubin level in 27 patients with bile duct stones and jaundice.The changes in the expression level of Tregs and the bilirubin level were studied and correlated before and after treatment.Results After treatment,both the peripheral blood bilirubin level,the Tregs expression level and the cell cytokines decreased significantly.The total bilirubin level decreased from (102.8 ± 33.1) mmol/L to (15.3 ± 5.7) mmol/L (P ＜ 0.05),the direct bilirubin level decreased from (38.1 ± 12.8) mmol/L to (5.0 ± 1.6) mmol/L (P ＜0.05);the percentages of CD4+ CD25 +Foxp3 + T cells in CD4+ T decreased from (4.2 ± 2.0) ％ to (2.4 ± 1.0) ％ (P ＜ 0.05).Before treatment,the levels of IL-10 and TGF-β were 171.4 ± 13.7 and 2016 ±657 pg/ml but after treatment,the two cytokines decreased to 92.1 ± 7.4 and 1 686 ± 168 pg/ml,respectively (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Patients with bile duct stones and jaundice presented with high expressions of bilirubin and Tregs level.These expressions returned to normal after effective treatment.The Tregs expression level was positively correlated with the bilirubin level.

Objective To investigate the expressions of regulatory T cell (Treg) and interleukin-35 (IL-35) in patients with cholangiocarcinoma and to explore their clinical significance.Methods Flow-cytometry,PCR,Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Elisa) and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the levels of Treg and IL-35 in peripheral blood and cholangiocarcinoma tissues in 42 patients with cholangiocarcinoma.Healthy volunteers were used as a control group.Result The percentage of Treg cells to CD4 + T cells in patients with cholangiocarcinoma was (5.6 ± 1.7) ％,while that in the normal control group was (2.9 ± 0.8) ％.There was a significant difference between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05).The plasma levels of IL-35 in patients with cholangiocarcinoma was (198.4 ± 81.4) pg/ml,while that in the normal control group was (33.7 ± 18.0) pg/ml.Again,a significant difference was observed between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05).In peripheral blood mononuclear cell,the IL-35 mRNA level was positively correlated with the plasma IL-35 level (p35,R =0.795,P ＜0.05;EBI3,R =0.812,P ＜ 0.05).Immunohistochemical studies showed that FOXP3 + tumor cells and Treg cells increased significantly in tumor tissues.Conclusion Overexpressions of Treg and IL-35 in peripheral blood and tumor tissues of patients with cholangiocarcinoma suggested that they may play important roles in the development of cholangiocarcinoma.

OBJECTIVE: Acoustic rhinometry (AR) was performed to standardize the measurement techniques, result interpretation and reference values of nasal cavity volume (NV) in preschool children. METHOD: (1) Nasal cavity models were used to test the correlations between NV, minimal cross-sectional area (MCA), and nasal resistance. (2) There were 97 four-year-old and 137 five-year-old children underwent AR test. RESULT: (1) Model tests showed that resist the nce were better correlated with the change of volume than the MCA. (2) The average bilateral NV in preschool children was (2.03 +/- 0.4) ml. No significant gender and age difference were observed (P>0.05). CONCLUSION Volume measurement appears more sensitive and reliable than the MCA in assessing nasal patency. The AR result interpretation and normative NV values in preschool children are introduced.

Carrying out the optimal location selection of medical equipment in the medical community plays an important role in scientifically allocating equipment resources and improving the service capacity of medical community. Aiming at minimizing the operating cost of the location selection and configuration of the portable color Doppler ultrasound instrument in the county medical community and the shortest time spent on medical visits for residents, the authors established the total value objective function of the medical community configuration according to the value engineering method; and considered the relevant constraints such as distance, time and personnel quality, the mathematical model of optimal planning for the selection and configuration of portable color Doppler ultrasound equipment in county medical community was constructed. The empirical research results showed that based on the established constraints, after 5 000 iterations, the model output 5 relatively optimized allocation points among the 9 allocation points, and when the allocation number of each allocation point was 1, the total allocation value in the medical community reached the maximum. This study could provide a new idea and feasible method for the allocation of equipment resources of county medical community in China.

Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a sulfurated glycosaminoglycan, a major component of the extracellular matrix, widely distributed in skin, cartilage and vascular tissue. CS plays an important role in the physiological state regulation of articular cartilage, which affects tensile strength and elasticity of tissues by influencing aggrecan. Previous studies have shown that CS sulfate modification may be related to the growth and development disorders of cartilage tissue and the occurrence of osteoarticular diseases. At the same time, CS is also a common joint supplement, often used in the treatment of osteoarthritis and Kashin-Beck disease. In this paper, the research progress of CS sulfate modification characteristics in Kashin-Beck disease and osteoarthritis and the application of the preparation in the treatment of Kashin-Beck disease and osteoarthritis are reviewed, aiming to provide help for the investigation of the etiology of Kashin-Beck disease and the treatment of osteoarthritis and Kashin-Beck disease.
