OBJECTIVE: To investigate the lethal blood level, the target organs and tissues, the toxicant storage depots and the postmortem redistribution in mice died of emamectin benzoate poisoning. METHODS: The mice model of emamectin benzoate poisoning was established via intragastric injection. The main poisoning symptoms and the clinical death times of mice were observed and recorded dynamically in the acute poisoning group as well as the sub-acute poisoning death group. The pathological and histomorphological changes of organs and tissues were observed after poisoning death. The biodistribution and postmortem redistribution of emamectin benzoate in the organs and tissues of mice were assayed by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) at 0h, 24h, 48h and 72h after death. The lethal blood concentrations and the concentrations of emamectin benzoate were detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) at different time points after death. RESULTS: The symptoms of nervous and respiratory system were observed within 15-30 min after intragastric injection. The average time of death was (45.8 ± 7.9) min in the acute poisoning group and (8.0 ± 1.4) d in the sub-acute poisoning group, respectively. The range of acute lethal blood level was 447.164 0-524.463 5 mg/L. The pathological changes of the organs and tissues were observed via light microscope and immunofluorescence microscope. The changes of emamectin benzoate content in the blood, heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney and brain of poisoning mice showed regularity within 72 h after death (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The target organs of emamectin benzoate poisoning include heart, liver, kidney, lung, brain and contact position (stomach). The toxicant storage depots are kidney and liver. There is emamectin benzoate postmortem redistribution in mice.

In this study gloxylic acid-induced fluorescent histochemical method was usedto reveal the innervation of adrenergic nerves,acetycholinesterase (AChE) methodto show the cholinergic nerves,and the immunohistochemical method to display thevasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) immunoreactivenerves.This observation on the vas deferens showed that the VIP-immunoreactivenerves had the same distribution as the cholinergic nerves,and mainly existed inlamina propria,while NPY-immunoreactive nerves had the same distribution asadrenergic nerves and mainly existed in the muscular layer.One group of animalswas treated by intraperitoneal injections of 6-OHDA on the lst,2nd,6th and 7thday,and killed on the 8th day.Following treatment with 6-OHDA,significantevanescence of most adrenergic nerves was observed.NPY-immunoreactive nervesreduced remarkably and the extent of the decrease was similiar to that of adrenergicnerves,whereas no change was observed on the VIP and cholinergic nerves.Theimmunoelectronic microscopy (PAP pre-embedding method) demonstrated that VIPimmunoreactive complex deposited in the varicosity containing small clear vesicles(diameter of 40-55nm).Some varicosities also contained small number of largegranular vesicles with the diameter of 100-144mm.NPY immunoreactive complexdeposited in the large granular vesicles,and occasionally can be observed in thesmall granular vesicles,40-55nm in diameter.The results from this study suggestthat VIP probably co-exist with ACh and NPY with noradrenalin in rat vasdeferens.

Objective: To observe influence of porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg, a main pathogenic bacterium of periodontal disease) on vascular intima adhesion factors and metalloproteinases. Methods: A total of 60 rats were randomly and equally divided into blank control group, Pg low dose group (Pg 2ml) and Pg high dose group (Pg 5ml) according to number table. The latter two groups respectively received intramuscular injection of corresponding dose Pg every three days without antibiotic intervention for 12 weeks. Then their venous blood was taken to measure levels of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-3 and MMP-9 in three groups. Results: Compared with blank control group, there were significant increase in contents of ICAM-1 [（175.79±14.30）ng/ml vs.（182.62±15.07）ng/ml, （189.39±14.93）ng/ml]、VCAM-1 [（256.49±37.17）ng/ml vs.（271.58±32.85）ng/ml , (286.66±30.66)ng/ml] 、 MMP-3 [（3.23±0.69）ng/ml vs.（3.61±0.82）ng/ml, (3.97±0.83)ng/ml]及 MMP-9 [（1.30±0.39）mg/L vs.（1.48±0.39）mg/L, 1.67±0.45）mg/L ]（P <0.05，or <0.01），Compared with Pg low dose group, there were significant increase in levels of above indexes in Pg high dose group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Porphyromonas gingivalis can significantly increase serum contents of vascular intima adhesion factors and metalloproteinases, aggravating pathological development of coronary heart disease.

Objective To investigate the factors that induce constipation in bedridden patients undergoing replantation of severed finger and find countermeasures. Methods A retrospective investigation was carried out in 92 patients undergoing replantation of severed finger, their constipation and factors influencing constipation were recorded. Results 61 patients suffered from constipation in total 92 cases,the rate being 66.30%. 76 patients reduced food intake, and 59 cases presented constipation (the rate being 77.63%). Factors influencing constipation included being unaccustomed to defecate in bed (the rate that present with constipation being 87.09%),reluctant to trouble others(75.47%), side effects of drugs(55.56%) and lack of dietary knowledge (71.87%), decreasing food intake was closely bound up with constipation. Conclusions Proper psychological counseling, strengthening of health propaganda, comfortable facility for defecation, improved family support and oral food intake can significantly reduce the proportion of constipation and increase comfort degree of patients.

·AIM: To evaluate the recurrence rate and safety of amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) augmented with mitomycin C (MMC) compared with amniotic membrane transplantation alone during the pterygium excision.·METHODS: We took a meta-analysis on this program.Pertinentstudieswereselectedthroughextensive searches of the Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE,CBMdisc, CNKI. Pooled estimates were carried out in RevMan software V4.2.·RESULTS: Six trials reported postoperative recurrence rate of pterygium, included 882 eyes, three trials reported the complications.

BACKGROUND:The traditional orthopedic fixation by C-arm positioning surface is completed, but the large C-arm injury on the human body and the long fixed time increase the suffering of patients. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the X-ray fixed in position within the orthopedic implants, navigation and effect. METHODS:Twenty-six New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into C-arm machine group and X-ray group, with 13 in each group. Rabbits in both groups were used to simulate soft tissue foreign body localization, intramedul ary nail implantation at distal fracture end and spinal pedicle screw entry point position. In the C-arm machine group, positioning navigation was conducted with C-arm machine. In the X-ray group, X-ray positioning navigation was used. The positioning and navigation effects were compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Compared with the C-arm machine group, the time required for navigation in the X-ray group targeting soft tissue foreign body localization, fracture distal locking intramedul ary nail implantation and pedicle screw spinal needle point location was significantly shorter (P<0.05);navigation displacement and deviation produced were significantly less (P<0.05). (2) These findings suggested that the X-ray positioning for orthopedic fixation method is relatively simple, with high availability, and can obtain a high performance-price ratio. Meanwhile, the X-ray localization can improve accuracy and shorten the fixed time.

Objective To study the effect of Fas gene transfection on rectal carcinoma cells in vitro. Methods By using RT-PCR technique, a full length of Fas gene 1007 bp was cloned from actived peripheral mononuclear cells of healthy donors. The fragment was ligated with the pGEM-T Easy and sequenced. The constructed vector was transfected into 8348 cells with lipofectin, the change in expression of Fas gene was determined by RT-PCR. The apoptosis and proliferation of rectal carcinoma cells pre- and posttransfection induced by cisplatin were analysed by ladder and MTT methods. Results Transfection of Fas gene significantly upregulates the expression of Fas in human rectal carcinoma 8348 cells. With the concentration of cisplatin at the level of 1, 5, 10, 20 and 40 mg/L , respectively, the suppression rates of Fas transfection group and control group were 47.2%51.8%57.2%65.4%71.0% and 29.6%33.0%37.8%41.4%47.0% respectively(t=15.33, P
