OBJECTIVETo study the physiologic indexes, yield and the contents of alkaloids of Fritillaria cirrhosa D. Don under different temperature.
METHODThe growth temperatures (15, 20, 25, 30 degrees C) of F. cirrhosa were controlled by using artificial climate, the growth was observed, the contents of chlorophyll a and b, soluble sugar, MAD, proline of the leaves of F. cirrhosa were tested, and the yield and the alkaloids content of the bulbs were analyzed.
RESULTThe growth period of F. cirrhosa under 15, 20 degrees C were appropriately extended. The difference of the content of leaves chlorophyll b under four temperatures and the contents of total chlorophyll and chlorophyll a under 15, 20, 30 degrees C were not significant. The contents of soluble sugar, MAD and proline of leaves and the growth ratio, dry weight and content of alkaloids of bulb increased with the temperature decrease.
CONCLUSIONHigher temperature is not suitable for the growth of F. cirrhosa. Under the relatively lower temperature, the growth period of F. cirrhosa extended, the bulb can grow properly, and the content of alkaloid increased. F. cirrhosa can improve its cold tolerance by increasing the content of proline and soluble sugar, and it also can maintain the normal content of chlorophyll under the lower temperature.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the influence of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-encoded small surface protein (SHBs) on hepatic cell expression of host genes related to lipid metabolism.
METHODSThe full-length SHBs gene was amplified from HBV genotype C by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and cloned into the pcDNA3.1(+) expression vector for stable transfection into HepG2 cells (selected by G418 screening); cells transfected with empty vector served as control. The SHBs mRNA and protein levels were detected by reverse transcription-PCR and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. SHBs effects on expression of genes and proteins related to lipid metabolism were detected by real-time quantitative (q)PCR and western blotting, respectively.
RESULTSThe stably transfected cell line HepG2-pn3.1-SHBs was established successfully. qPCR showed that the HepG2-pn3.1-SHBs cells had significantly down-regulated transcription of the ECHS1, APOA1 and LPL genes (0.161+/-0.043 vs. control cells: 0.210+/-0.022, t = 2.479; 0.031+/-0.007 vs. 0.094+/-0.055, t = 2.752; 0.770+/-0.036 vs. 0.982+/-0.031, t = 10.914), but significantly up-regulated ACC and SREBP-1c genes (0.113+/-0.027 vs. 0.059+/-0.022, t = -3.757; 0.019+/-0.002 vs. 0.015+/-0.001, t = -4.330). The CPT1a and PPARa genes' expression was slightly, but not significantly, down-regulated in the HepG2-pn3.1-SHBs cells (0.028+/-0.005 vs. 0.030+/-0.004, t = 1.022; 0.014+/-0.004 vs. 0.015+/-0.002, t = 0.758). Western blotting showed similar expression trends for the corresponding proteins.
CONCLUSIONSHBs alters the expression of some host genes with known functions in fatty acid synthesis and decomposition; however, it remains unclear whether the hepatitis B surface antigen can directly contribute to development of hepatic steatosis.

BACKGROUNDSurgical treatment of intracranial aneurysms is often compromised by incomplete exclusion of the aneurysm or stenosis of parent vessels. Intraoperative microvascular Doppler (IMD) is an attractive, noninvasive, and inexpensive tool. The present study aimed to evaluate the usefulness and reliability of IMD for guiding clip placement in aneurysm surgery.
METHODSA total of 92 patients with 101 intracranial aneurysms were included in the study. IMD with a 1.5-mm diameter, 20-MHz microprobe was used before and after clip application to confirm aneurysm obliteration and patency of parent vessels and branching arteries. IMD findings were verified postoperatively with digital subtraction angiography (DSA) or dual energy computed tomography angiography (DE-CTA). Ninety consecutive patients, harboring 108 aneurysms, who underwent surgery without IMD was considered as the control group.
RESULTSThe microprobe detected all vessels of the Circle of Willis and their major branches. Clips were repositioned in 24 (23.8%) aneurysms on the basis of the IMD findings consistent with incomplete exclusion and/or stenosis. IMD identified persistent weak blood flow through the aneurismal sac of 11 of the 101 (10.9%) aneurysms requiring clip adjustment. Stenosis or occlusion of the parent or branching arteries as indicated by IMD necessitated immediate clip adjustment in 19 aneurysms (18.8%). The mean duration of the IMD procedure was 4.8 minutes. The frequency of clip adjustment (mean: 1.8 times per case) was associated with the size and location of the aneurysm. There were no complications related to the use of IMD, and postoperative angiograms confirmed complete aneurysm exclusion and parent vessel patency. About 8.3% (9/108) aneurysms were unexpectedly incompletely occluded, and 10.2% (11/108) aneurysms and parent vessel stenosis without IMD were detected by postoperative DSA or DE-CTA. IMD could reduce the rate of residual aneurysm and unanticipated vessel stenosis which demonstrated statistically significant advantages compared with aneurysm surgery without IMD.
CONCLUSIONIMD is a safe, easily performed, reliable, and valuable tool that is suitable for routine use in intracranial surgery, especially in complicated, large, and giant aneurysms with wide neck or without neck.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the optimal operative approach for the complicated anal fistula.
METHODSOne hundred and ninety-two cases with complicated anal fistula were randomly divided into minimally invasive operation group (through spatium intermuscular of anal sphincter) and fistula resection group. The operation time, bleeding time during and after operation, pain lasting time, healing time of incision, area of anal scar, anal malformation and function and post operative recurrence were observed and compared between the two groups.
RESULTSCompared to those of fistula resection group, the operative time was (36.5+/- 15.3)min, bleeding time during and after operation (2.0+/- 0.5)d, postoperative pain lasting time (1.5+/- 0.5)d, healing time of incision (18.5+/- 5.5)d in minimally invasive operation group. All were shortened (P< 0.05), and the incidence of anal malformation (5.2%, P< 0.01) and partial anal incontinence (2.1%, P< 0.01) was lower. There was no significant difference in postoperative recurrence between the two groups.
CONCLUSIONSThe minimally invasive operation through spatium in termuscular of anal sphincter is superior to fistula resection on the management of complicated fistula.
