Objective To investigate the effect of preconditioning with mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel opener on the mitochondrial functions.Methods Thirty SD rats were used.Isoproterenol was used to induce myocardial ischemic injury in 20 rats,ten of which were pretreated with diazoxide.Rhodamine123(Rh123)was used as fluorescent prober to measure mitochondrial membrane potential.The activities of mitochondrial Na+-K+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase were detected.The mitochondrial respiratory parameters were recorded with a Clark electrode.The effect of diazoxide on mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial respiration was investigated.Results Compared with the controls,the levels of state 3(ST3),respiratory control rate(RCR),mitochondrial membrane potential content and the activities of mitochondrial ATPase were decreased in the rats that received isoproterenol,while diazoxide pretreatment alleviated the changes of ST3,RCR,mitochondrial membrane potential and the activities of mitochondrial ATPase.Conclusion Preconditioning with diazoxide enhances the activities of mitochondrial ATPase and protects the myocardial mitochondrial function after isoproterenol induced myocardial ischemic injury.

BACKGROUND:Femoral offset reconstruction is significant for recovering strength of abductor and the balance of soft tissue tension surrounding hip joint, maintaining joint stabilization, restoring joint function, reducing limping after replacement, decreasing prosthetic abrasion, and the incidence of joint prosthesis dislocation.
OBJECTIVE:To discuss effect of femoral offset reconstruction on hip joint function in total hip arthroplasty.
METHODS:We comparatively analyzed 20 patients (20 hips) undergoing the modular prosthesis (S-ROM) total hip arthroplasty and 19 patients (20 hips) undergoing the one modular prosthesis (Corail) total hip arthroplasty at the same time. According to Harris hip score and radiography results, hip joint function and femoral offset reconstruction rate were comparatively studied in both groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No infection, fracture, dislocation, deep venous thrombosis or neurovascular injury occurred in either group. Clinical fol ow-up results:In the modular prosthesis and one modular prosthesis groups, there was no significant difference in preoperative Harris hip score between the femoral offset reconstruction and non-reconstruction groups (P>0.05). At 12 months and the latest fol ow-up, the Harris hip score was higher in the patients with femoral offset reconstruction than those with femoral offset non-reconstruction (P<0.05). The range of abduction of hip joint was larger in patients with femoral offset reconstruction than those with femoral offset non-reconstruction (P<0.05). Radiographic fol ow-up results:significant differences in the rate of femoral offset reconstruction were detected between the modular prosthesis and one modular prosthesis groups (χ2=3.956, P<0.05). 39 (98%) femoral stems were in neutral position and one (2.5%) was in mild valgus. There was no significant difference in the abduction angle and the anteversion angle between patients with and without femoral offset reconstruction (P>0.05). These results indicated that functional recovery and the range of abduction were better in patients with femoral offset reconstruction than those without femoral offset reconstruction. Modular prosthesis has a high rate of femoral offset reconstruction.

The methamphetamine(METH)addiction is a compensatory adaptation of the central nervous system after the long-term exposure to METH in the molecular,cellular,neuronal loop function and brain structure.As a new type of post transcriptional regulatory molecules and regulatory factors,miRNAs are a large number of regulatory factors in the central nervous system.Studies have shown that miRNAs play an important role in the regulation of METH addiction.This paper is to review and summarize the expression features and the regulatory role of miRNAs in METH addiction,as well as the different expression of miRNAs in different tissues and organs.The aim of this paper is to provide a reference for further study on the role of miRNAs molecules in METH addiction and the discovery of new drug targets.

BACKGROUND:Anatomic medul ary locking (AML) femoral prosthesis is circular cylinder and has satisfactory efficacy. However, some scholars found the complications such as thigh pain, loss of bone at the proximal end of the femur, and wearing-related osteolysis. F2L femoral prosthesis is cone-shaped and also has satisfactory efficacy, but the thigh pain incidence is relatively low. ＜br> OBJECTIVE:To compare the intermediate-long term results of AML versus F2L in total hip arthroplasty. ＜br> METHODS:Between November 1997 and January 2005, we retrospectively reviewed 60 patients (66 hips) undergoing total hip arthroplasty using biological femoral prosthesis. At fol ow-up examination, 58 hips in 52 patients were available for clinical and roentgenographic review. 26 AML devices were placed in 24 patients, and 32 F2L devices were placed in 28 patients. The AML group were reviewed with an average of 12.7 years fol ow-up (range 10 years and 3 months to 15 years and 5 months), while the F2L group were reviewed with an average of 9.5 years fol ow-up (range 8 years and 3 months to 11 years and 1 month). The clinical results were evaluated with Harris methods and X-ray examination. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to evaluate the survival of femoral component. End point was radiographical loosening or revision of the femoral component for any reason. ＜br> RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There were no significant difference between AML and F2L about Harris score in the latest fol ow-up (P>0.05). After surgery, the incidence of thigh pain was significantly lower in F2L group than that in AML group (P＜0.05). In AMKL group, the stress-shielding 1 level was observed in 21 hips (81%), and 2 level in five hips (19%);in F2L group, the stress shielding 0 level was observed in 20 hips (62%) and 1 level in 12 hips (38%). There were significant differences between the two groups (P＜0.05). The stress shielding showed significant differences between the two groups (P＜0.05). The incidence of osteolysis in F2L group was significantly lower than that in AML group (P＜0.05). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that, the survival rate of both AML and F2L components were 1.0 (95%confidence interval:0.98-1.00). Experimental findings indicate that, both AML and F2L femoral prosthesis have a satisfactory long-term efficacy after total hip arthroplasty, and the incidence of thigh pain and osteolysis is significantly lower in F2L group.

Objective Retrospectively analysis on death cases related with aortic dissection provides support for further forensic investigation on such cases. Methods 44 Cases on aortic dissection are collected from the Forensic Medical Center in Kunming Medical University from 2002to2017.Statistic anaylisis was applied to each case's general information,clinical stage,clinical manifestation,risk factors,pathological type,rupture state,and direct case of death. Results The results showed that aortic dissection occurs moslty in middle age male who ranges from 40 to 49 years old. Most cases were aute aortic dissection, and the death rate was the highest in winter and the lowest in spring. Furthermore, pain is shown to be the most common symptom. Atherosclerosis is a critical factor that contributes to the occurance of aortic dissection. In general, type A aortic dissection occurs more frequently than type B. The rupture, located in ascending aorta, often is in a transverse shape. Cardiac tamponade is the primary cause of death.Conclusion Definite initial symptoms arises before aortic dissection rupture and always show many high-risk factors. It is beneficial to forensic identification of the relation between aortic dissection and injury or medical behavior should be considered carefully.

Objective To introduce a single person operation procedure for tail vein injection in conscious tree shrews,and to improve the success rate of injection. Methods The tree shrew was fixed by a canvas glove and a clamp. The tail of the tree shrew was fixed by the operator's left hand, and the drug was injected by the right hand with a 1 mL disposable syringe. Results This method had the advantages of simple operation,economy and practicality,good fixation effect,high matching degree of animals and high success rate of drug administration. Conclusions Compared with other methods,this method has obvious advantages such as single person operation, convenient, time-saving and labor-saving. The cost is low and the effect is good,thus significantly improving the success rate of injection.
