The skeletal muscle relaxing effects of gentamicin (Gen) and amikacin (Amk) were investigated and compared with tubocu-rarine (Tub) in rat phrenic nerve-muscle preparation, conscious chicken and mouse. The potency of the neuro-muscular blocking action of Gen was two times that of Amk. The blocking effect of Gen was observed as an 'all or none' phenomenon with a bigger S value compared with Tub. The drug concentrations were decreased by pumping drug free perfusate into or-gan baths to simulate an elimination rate constant fixed at 0. 1/min. To plot effects against declined concentrations there was a clockwise hysteresis loop with Tub, but a counter-clockwise hystereksis loop presented by Gen. The mode of the skeletal muscle relaxing effect of Gen and Amk was classified as non-depolarization like Tub.
4.Risks and benefits: new concepts of treatment of late-onset hypogonadism.
National Journal of Andrology 2014;20(6):483-489
Late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) is a clinical and bio-chemical syndrome associated with advancing age in males and seriously affects the quality of life of some of the patients. A classical therapeutic option for LOH is testosterone supplementary treatment (TST). Its effectiveness has been verified, whereas its long-term safety remains to be further evaluated. With deeper insights into LOH, many new therapeutic strategies have been proposed, which include the treatments with gonadotropins, testosterone precursors (such as dehydroepiandrosterone [DHEA]), non-aromatizable androgens (such as dihydrotestosterone [DHT]), antiestrogens (such as aromatase inhibitors and estrogen receptor antagonists), and Chinese medicine. Meanwhile, studies on the transplantation of Leydig stem cells, selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs), and selective estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta) agonists have shed new light on the treatment of LOH.

Objective The objective of digitalized patient records control is to meet some new demands set on patient records control under the new circumstances. Methods A computer system for digitalized patient records control and supporting processing, management and applications setups were established. Results The system put the contents of the patient records into various categories with difierent standards and designed relatively strict means of authorization. It rendered patient records easier to use and their control more strict, making it possible to make general use of the records without access to the original documents. As a result, data loss was avoided, authority over the data was put under control, data sharing was provided, and full and convenient use of data was realized. Conclusion Digitalized patient records control, a form of shaping computer-based patient records before the latter fully comes into being, enhances the efficiency of patient records application and reduces the pressure of paper records storage. It is a practical and effective way of controlling patient records.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the possibility mechanism of non-side population cells (NSP) of Hep-2 be induced into stem-like cancer cells by chemotherapy drug--cisplatin.
METHOD:
Hep-2 cell lines were sorted by fluorescence-actived cell sorting. The acquired NSP cells in trail group were co-cultured with cisplatin for more than 48 hours,while the control group with normal saline(NS). Then identified the percentage of the side population (SP) cells by flow cytometer. The β-catenin, notch-1 mRNA in trial and control group were detected using quantitative realtime PCR, and the β-catenin, notch-1 protein in two groups were compared by Western blot.
RESULT:
The percentage of side population cells in two groups were (17.16 ± 0.18)%, (10.05 ± 1.20)%, respectively. There was significant difference between two groups (t = 5.844, P < 0.01). The expression of β-catenin, notch-1 was higher in trail group by qRT-PCR; the protein levels of β- catenin, notch-1 was found to inceased in the trail group by Western blot (t = 5.155, P = 0.031; t = 5.977, P = 0.004). Statistical analysis showed significant difference between two groups (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
NSP cells can be differentiated into stem-like cancer cells after being treating with cisplatin. The supposed mechanism is maybe through wnt/β-catenin, notch signaling transduction pathway abnormalities.

Objective To understand the molecular epidemiology characteristics and its drug resistance of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in the urban area of Jilin and to provide important basis for guiding the clinical medication and prevention of the MRSA infection. Methods One hundred and three strains of MRSA from July 2013 to July 2014 in the urban area of Jilin were selected. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology and multiple polymerase chain reaction were used to detect mecA gene and Staphylococcus chromosomal cassette mec typing (SCCmec) genotype of MRSA. The drug sensitivity test for 13 kinds of clinical common antibacterial drugs were detected by using the K-B method. And the source of the strains were analyzed. Results The results of SCCmec genotype of MRSA showed that SCCmecⅢtype were 62 strains, accounting for 60.2%;SCCmecⅡtype were 39 strains, accounting for 37.9%; failing to parting were 2 strains,accounting for 1.9%. Drug susceptibility test results showed that all of 103 MRSA strains were resistant to cefoxitin, cefazolin, penicillin and benzene, and drug resistance rate was 100.0%. The resistant rate to erythromycin, levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, gentamicin and rifampin were 96.1%, 93.2%, 95.1%, 91.3%, 90.3%and 55.3%receptively;the resistant rate to sulfamethoxazolewas was only 1.9%;and the resistant strains to vancomycin and teicoplanin were not detected. The top three department of the distribution of the strains source were department of neurosurgery (31.1%), ICU (19.4%) and burn plastic surgery (17.5%). Conclusions The SCCmecⅢtype is the main MRSA epidemic strains, and SCCmec type II is a minor epidemic strainin the urban area of Jilin. The antibiotic resistance of MRSA is a serious problem with multiple drug resistance, but MRSA is sensitive to vancomycin and teicoplanin.
