Objective To determine the urine parameters,body temperature and main organ coefficient of Fujian rabbits.Methods In this experiment,we selected twenty healthy Fujian rabbits with weight of about 2.5kg.Both male and female rabbits were ten.Before experiment,the rabbits drunk water freely.We collected fresh urine before breeding in the morning,and then determined the ten items urine parameters soon.Under the room temperature,we used electricity thermometer into the rabbits' rectum to determine the body temperature.Being fasting for 12h,the rabbits were anesthetized by 3% pentobarbital sodium,and then were put to death after bloodletting.The dissection took various internal organs immediately.The clean organs were weighed by electronic analytical balance.Results The results showed that the majority of the urine was yellow opacity,and the ten items urine parameters between male and female had no significant difference.The average body temperature of Fujian rabbits was 39.67℃ above other ones.There was no significant difference in main organ coefficient between male and female expect the lung and spleen.Conclusion In a word,it was objective to determine the body temperature,urine parameters,mainly organ coefficient of Fujian rabbits which were fed in conventional environment.It is valuable for the appliation of Fujian rabbits in life science sphere.

Objective To investigate the effects of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) degradation induced by chondroitinase ABC (ChABC) on the rat flash visual evoked potential (F-VEP) around the end of the critical period of visual development.Methods A total of 30 Long Evans rats were randomly divided into 3 groups according to their age of 14,21 and 35 d.Then in each group,5 animals served as CSPGs degradation model induced by ChABC microinjection into 5 sites of the rat cortex [750 nL (48 U/ml) for 1 site,for 2 times at a 3-day interval],and the other 5 rats served as normal control and received normal saline microinjection.Immunofluorescence microscopy and laser scanning confocal microscopy were used to determine the establishment of animal model.F-VEPs were evaluated in 7 d after first microinjection.Results In the normal rats,the latency of F-VEP main wave became shorter with the increase of their age,the number was [(63.5?10.1),(50.8?6.4),(44.9?6.3) ms,P

(IFN-?) were determined with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) among 30 patients with Graves′ disease (GD) and 20 patients with Hashimotos thyroiditis(HT) and 30 children without AITD subjects.Results The serum levels of IL-4 and IL-6 in patients with GD were higher than those of subjects (Pa

Objective:To dynamically describe the drug concentration change in different time in vivo to understand the in vivo be-havior patterns and rules of drugs, provide reference for performing individual treatment and avoiding adverse drug reactions and lay foundation for dynamic description of physiological pharmacokinetic model. Methods:A two-compartment model was established using Simulink dynamic simulation and used in curve fitting and parameter estimation. The results from the model were compared with those from 3P97 software. Results:There was no significant difference between the results from the dynamic model and those from 3P97 soft-ware. Conclusion:The dynamic model can be used to dynamically simulate two-compartment model for oral administration. The re-sults from the dynamic simulation are more direct, and can correct the fitting error in 3P97 software.

Objective To investigate the impact of different kinds of laparoscopic surgery including conventional blunt elimination and modified acute elimination on sex hormone, antral follicle count and ovarian volume of patients with endometriosis (EMs). Methods 100 patients with EMs were chosen from January 2013 to April 2016 and randomly divided into control group (50 patients) with conventional blunt elimination and observation group (50 patients) with modified acute elimination; and the thickness of elimination lesion, the removal rate of ovary cortex, the thickness of ovarian cortex, the level of serum sex hormones, the AFC number of affected side and the volume of ovary before and after operation of the two groups were compared. Results There was no significant difference in the thickness of lesion elimination, the removal rate and removed thickness of ovarian cortical between the two groups (P > 0.05). The thickness of lesion elimination and the thickness of ovarian cortex in middle position of observation group were significantly lower than that in control group (P < 0.05). The thickness of lesion elimination, removed thickness of ovarian cortical and the removal rate of ovary cortex in hilus ovarii in observation group were significantly lower than that in control group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the levels of serum sex hormones before and after treatment between the two groups (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in the levels of AFC number of affected side before and after treatment (P > 0.05). The levels of AFC number of affected side in hilus ovarii of control group after treatment were significantly lower than that before treatment (P < 0.05). The volume of ovary of both groups after treatment were significantly lower than that before treatment (P < 0.05). The volume of ovary of observation group after treatment were significantly higher than that in control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Compared with conventional blunt elimination, modified acute elimination in the treatment of patients with EMs can efficiently shorten the operation time, reduce the surgical trauma degree, speed up the recovery process after operation, regulate the level of FSH and AMH and be helpful to protect the ovarian reserve function.
