BACKGROUND:Sufentanil exerts protective effects on tissues, but its roles in the repair of nervous system injury and the underlying mechanism are stil unknown.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the protective effect of sufentanil preconditioning in the repair of spinal cord injuries and the underlying mechanism.
METHODS:Mouse models of spinal cord injuries were prepared through clipping spinal cord fol owed by intraperitoneal injection of 3 and 6μg/kg sufentanil, respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUISON:(1) Western blotting, ELISA and TUNEL assays showed that 6μg/kg sufentanil significantly down-regulated the protein expression levels of TLR4, nuclear factor-κBp65, cleaved-caspase 3, tumor necrosis factor-αand interlenkin-1βin the spinal cord of mice (P<0.05);at the same time, the number of apoptotic neurons was significantly decreased (P<0.05). (2) Furthermore, high-dose sufentanil preconditioning significantly ameliorated the recovery of limb function at 14 days after injury (P<0.05). (3) These results administrate that the neuroprotection provided by 6μg/kg sufentanil preconditioning for spinal cord injuries in mice maybe related to the TLR4/nuclear factor-κB signaling pathway inactivation.

Objective To analyze the distribution of tophus in ankle and tarsal joints by multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT)and to explore the pathogenesis of gout.Methods 34 patients with a documented diagnosis of gout underwent CT examina-tion of bilateral ankle and tarsal joints,and 55 ankle and tarsal joints were observed tophus.The sites of tophus deposition were cate-gorized into groups of ligament,tendon and joint in order to record and analyze.Results The tophus were showed at the anterior talofibular ligament (n=38),the medial ligament (the site of talus and calcaneus)(n=30)and the interosseous talocalcaneal liga-ment (n=29)(P <0.05)in the group of ligament;at achilles tendon (n= 18),followed by tibialis posterior tendon (n= 7)(P <0.05)in the group of tendon;at articulations intercuneiformes (n=1 5)and inferior tibiofibular articulation (n= 10)(P <0.05 )in the group of joint.Conclusion In ankle and tarsal joints,tophus is commonly deposited at the anterior talofibular ligament,at the achilles tendon and the articulationes intercuneiformes.

Firing patterns of injured nerve fibers were recorded using the single-fiber firing recording technique. Under the same background firing pattern, three types of bursting were induced separately by EGTA, veratridine or high [Ca(2+)](o) in the same type of nerve fibers. The results suggest that different firing patterns are related to different stimuli, which means that each firing pattern carries corresponding neural information.

Objective To prepare and evaluate the biocompatibility of polycarbonate coated with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) and partial oxidation sodium alginate(OSA).Methods Coating material was prepared by means of chemical graft-modification and the feature of the material was determined with infrared spectrum and the stablity of the coating in fluid was examined.Biocompatibility was evaluated by contact angle and in-vitro tests including protein adhesion,platelet adhesion and caugulation.Results LMWH or OSA was tightly combined with polycarbonate.After being coated,the contact angle,albumin and fibrinogen adhering to materials were decrease (P＜0.05).The anticoagulant activity was notably promoted by coating.Compared with LMWH coated material,the contact angle,albumin and fibrinogen adhering were decreased significantly,but the improvement of anticaugulation was limited(P＜0.05).Conclusion Chemical graft-modification LMWH or OSA can be applied to polycarbonate.The biocompatibility of the coated materials was significantly promoted.

Objective To investigate the chest HRCT characteristics of pediatric perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (p-ANCA) associated systemic vasculitis. Methods Retrospectively analysis of the clinical and HRCT data of 15 pediatric cases diagnosed as p-ANCA related pneumonia according to the classification and diagnostic criteria of Chapel Hill meeting of 1994 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. They were 13 girls and 2 boys. The age range was 1—17 years and the median was about 10 years old, In the 15 patients, 12 were diagnosed as primary MPA, 2 were secondary MPA, 1 was CSS. Two radiologists with 10 years of radiological experience read the CT imaging together. Results 1 of 12 primary MPA were found large opacities and ground glass shades in both sides of lung,especially the posterior parts on CT images with bilateral pleural effusion; 1 case had focal opacities in left lower lobe, around with thickened interlobular septa and pleural effusion; Another 1 case only had focal thickened interstitial in right middle lobe; The other 9 cases showed scattered or diffused ground glass opacity, with thickened pulmonary interstitial and (or) pleura. 1 of the 2 secondary MPA who had hemoptysis showed ground glass opacity on CT images with no thickened septal nodules or pleural effusion. The other one who had renal anomalies and no respiratory symptoms showed subpleural nodules with halo sign in right low lobe. The CSS showed diffused patchy ground glass opacity, consolidation of both lingular lobes, nodules of centri-and peri-lobular, thickened septa near the pleura, obviously thickened bronchial wall, slightly widened bronchial lumen and thickened pleura. Conclusion The classic imaging features of p-ANCA pneumonia on HRCT is the non-specific small pulmonary vessel hemorrhage.

Objective To make a comparison between the plain radiograph, CT, and MR findings of gouty arthritis and to analyse the relationship between clinical data and imaging findings. Methods Fifty-four joints of 33 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of gouty arthritis were included in this study. In the morning, the blood uric acid level of patients was tested before meal. In the afternoon, their clinical data were recorded and joints were examinated by plain radiography, CT, and MRI. The imaging findings were evaluated by tophi, bone erosion, soft tissue swelling, hydrarthrosis, synovial thickness, and bone oedema. The data was analyzed by Chi-square test, indepentdent-samples t test, and logistic regression. Results The Chi-square test was utilized to evaluate number of joints with tophi(CT>plain radiography, MR>plain radiography, P<0. 01), soft tissue swelling (MR>CT>plain radiography, P<0. 01), hydrarthrosis(MR>CT, P<0. 01). In addition, 35 joints had bone oedema and 50 joints had synovial thickness. The course of disease(tophi positive group vs tophi negative group, P<0. 01) was analyzed by indepentdent-samples t test. The tophi's causative agents including bone erosion and course of disease were analysed by logistic regression(P<0. 01). Conclusions MRI is superior to CT and plain radiography on the early diagnosis of gout. Tophi and bone erosion may not affect the blood uric acid level. With the progression of disease, the probability of tophi formation increases. The relationship between the formation of tophi and bone erosion may be interpromotied.

Veratridine, a blocker of inactive gate of sodium channel, was used to perfuse L5 dorsal root ganglion (DRG) topically. Afferent activities of type A single fiber from these DRGs were recorded. It was found that after a 10-min bath of veratridine (1.8-3 micromol/L), some of the primary silent DRG neurons were triggered by touch or pressure on the receptive fields or by electrical stimulation of the sciatic nerve to produce high-frequency firing, which was termed triggered oscillation presenting a U-type of interspike intervals (ISI) or other types of oscillations. The longer the intervals between stimulating pulses, the more stimulating pulses were needed to trigger the oscillation. The oscillation, triggered by electric stimuli with different duration or patterns, had no significant difference in their patterns. The duration of the inhibitory period after a triggered oscillation was generally 30-90 s. It was also observed that this kind of triggered oscillation was induced by afferent pulses of the same neurons. These results suggest that triggered oscillation, which may contribute to the fit of triggered pain, can be produced in primary sensory neurons after application of veratridine.

OBJECTIVEHigh altitue pulmonary edema (HAPE) impacts seriously people's health at high altitude. Screening of susceptibility genes for HAPE will be used for the evaluation and protection of susceptible people.

METHODSWe performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using Affymetrix SNP array 6.0 in 23 HAPE patients and 17 healthy controls. GO and Pathway analysis softwares were used to analyze and draw gene network.

RESULTSThirty-nine SNPs were found to be significantly different between case and control groups (P < 10(-4)). GO and Pathway analysis of 27 genes around the 39 SNPs indicated that these genes mainly participate in the regulating of cell proliferation, regulation of nitrogen compound metabolic process and G-protein coupled receptor protein signaling pathway and so on.

CONCLUSIONIt suggests that these SNPs and genes found in this study may be associated with the susceptibility of HAPE.
