As a node between the skull and the spine, atlantoaxial joint plays a pivotal role in the maintenance of head and neck activities, as well as the connection between the brains and the spine. The biomechanical characteristics of stlantoaxial joint, together with traumatic factors, contribute to determine the site, type and character of atlantoaxial joint fracture and dislocation, they also affect the treatment of atlantoaxial joint injury. With the materials technique development and accumulated experience of clinical operations, various types of new implants are increasing and used for clinical practice, accordingly the surgical approach and therapy regimen of atlantoaxial disease have been greatly enriched. At present, the use of implant mainly aims to promote the atlantoaxial fusion or enhance the connection and fixation between atlantoaxial joints. However, the head and neck activities are also limited simultaneously while the implant enhances the atlantoaxial joint stability. Further studies require to handle the correlation between joint stability and joint flexibility and to maximize the physiological function recovery of atlantoaxial joints when ensuring the atlantoaxial joint stability.

Present study investigated the effect of endotoxin from Bacteroides melaninogenicus ATCC 25845 on release of colony-stimulating factor (CSF)in mice. The bone marrow cells were cultured in semisolid agar medium,the number of colonies was as a level index of CSF. The results showed that as much as 0.1?g endotoxin could induce the release of CSF,moreover, The level of CSF increased with dose of endotoxin untill 50 ?g. The colony-stimulatin factor level of B. melaninogenicus endotoxin was 66.6?8.5(CFU-C). This endotoxin showed significant effect on bone marrow cells of mice.

Objective To study the clinical significance of end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (PetCO2 ) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and seek the fixed value according which to decide if we should and when to give up.Methods This was a prospective,observational study.A total of 124 patients with cardiac arrest in or out-of-hospital from may 2003 to March 2009 in emergency department of our hospital were selected.All of them had definite etiological factors.Changes of PetCO2 in 124 cardiac arrest patients during CPR were tracked.Results The gender,age,rescue time in seventy-one patients with the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after endotracheal intubation have a significant difference with that in fifty-three patients without ROSC (P ＜0.01 ).The PetCO2 of the survival were higher than that of patients without ROSC or with ROSC,but finally died (P ＜0.01 ).A fixed point 14.4 mmHg of PetCO2 after 20 minutes' CPR can be used as a reference value to guide CPR or predict prognosis.Conclusions Monitoring PetCO2 during CPR has a predictive value on the success of resuscitation.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the apolipoprotein B (ApoB) gene Xba Ⅰ and EcoR Ⅰ polymorphisms and cholelithiasis in Han and Mongolian population in the Midwest Area of Inner Mongolia.Methods The clinical data of 100 patients with cholelithiasis and 115 healthy individuals at the First Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Baotou from April to October in 2010 were collected.A case-control study which detected ApoB alleles of patients with cholelithiasis (cholelithiasis group) and healthy individuals (control group) in Han nationality and Mongolian nationality in the Midwest Area of Inner Mongolia was conducted by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism,which included Xba Ⅰ (X + X +,X + X-,X-X-,X +,X-) and EcoR Ⅰ (E + E +,E-E-,E + E-,E +,E-).The serum lipid (including triglyceride,total cholesterol,high density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein) levels in different groups were detected.The count data and the measurement data were analyzed using the chi-square test and t test,respectively.Results Genotype X + X + was not found in the Han and Mongolian population,and Xba Ⅰ (X +) or EcoR Ⅰ (E-) alleles was not found in the Mongolian population.The levels of low density lipoprotein were (2.8 ± 0.9)mmol/L in the cholelithiasis group,which was significantly higher than (1.9 ± 0.8) mmol/L of the control group in the Han population (t =2.800,P ＜ 0.05).The levels of high density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein were (1.7 ± 0.3) mmol/L and (3.5 ± 0.8) mmol/L of the cholelithiasis group,which were significantly higher than (1.2 ± 0.3) mmol/L and (2.8 ± 0.9) mmol/L of the control group in the Mongolian population (t =7.596,2.549,P ＜ 0.05).The levels of triglyceride,total cholesterol,high density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein of the cholelithiasis group in the Mongolian population were (3.1 ± 1.6) mmol/L,(5.6 ± 1.0) mmol/L,(1.7 ± 0.3) mmol/L and (3.5 ± 0.8) mmol/L,which were significantly higher than (1.2 ± 0.6) mmol/L,(4.4 ± 1.2) mmol/L,(1.3 ± 0.3) mmol/L and (2.8 ± 0.9) mmol/L of the cholelithiasis group in the Han population (t =5.501,3.667,4.448,3.430,P ＜ 0.05).The levels of triglyceride,total cholesterol,low density lipoprotein were (2.6 ± 1.7) mmol/L,(5.1 ± 1.1) mmol/L and (2.8 ± 0.9) mmol/L of the control group in the Mongolian population,which were significantly higher than (1.3 ±0.7)mmol/L,(3.9 ±0.9) mmol/L and (1.9 ±0.8) mmol/L of the control group in the Han population (t =4.298,4.772,3.888,P ＜ 0.05),while the level of high density lipoprotein was significantly higher of the control group in the Han nationality than the control group in the Mongolian population (t =1.997,P ＜ 0.05).The levels of low density lipoprotein in patients with genotypes X + X-,X-X-of the cholelithiasis group in the Han population were (2.7 ± 0.1) mmol/L and (2.6 ± 1.0) mmol/L,and the levels of low density lipoprotein in patients with genoeypes E + E ±,E + E-/E-E-were (2.6 ± 1.0) mmol/L and (2.5±0.4)mmol/L,with no significant difference (t=0.225,0.124,P＞0.05).Conclusion In the Midwest area of Inner Mongolia,the Mongolian population might be more susceptible to cholelithiasis than the Han population.No relationship between the rare alleles X +,E-and the increase of blood lipids,which indicates that X + and E-of ApoB may not be a risk factor of cholelithiasis.

This study was aimed to exploreBi-Min-Gan (BMG) granules induced immune tolerance for allergic rhinitis cases through changes of Treg cells to achieve the goal of treatment. SD rats were used as experimental animal, which were divided into the blank group, model group and BMG granules group. Allergic rhinitis rat model was established. Intragastric administration of BMG granules was given. Levels of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg and IL-4, IL-10, TGF-β1, IL-13 were detected with flow cytometry and ELISA assay. The results of flow cytometry showed that CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg decreased after the successful establishment of the model (P<0.05); but it increased after treatment of BMG granules (P<0.05) to reach the level of the normal blank group (P>0.05). ELISA showed the concentrations of IL-10 and TGF-β1 decreased significantly after the successful establishment of the model (P<0.0001); concentrations of IL-4 and IL-13 increased significantly (P<0.0001). While, after treatment of BMG granules, concentrations of IL-10 and TGF-β1 in blood rebound but did not reach the level of the normal blank group;concentrations of IL-4 and IL-13 in the blood decreased but did not reach the level of the normal blank group. It was concluded that BMG granules can upregulate the number of Treg cells in allergic rhinitis rat, increase the secretion of IL-10 and TGF-β1, inhibit Th2 cell activity, and reduce secretion of IL-4 and IL-13, so as to improve symptoms of allergic rhinitis.

AIM: To study the effects of intrathymic inoculation of liver specific antigen (LSA) on hepatocyte apoptosis after liver allotransplantation. METHODS: Orthotopic liver transplantation was used in this study. Group Ⅰ: syngenic control (Wistar-to-Wistar); Group Ⅱ: acute rejection (SD-to-Wistar); Group Ⅲ: thymus inoculation of SD rat LSA day 7 before transplantation. The observation of general situation and survival time, hepatocyte apoptosis and LAT expression in liver transplants were used to analyze immune state of animals in different groups. RESULTS: The general situation of group Ⅰ was very well after transplantation. Recipients of groupⅡ lost body weight progressively and all died within day 9 to day 13 post transplantation. As for group Ⅲ, the general situation of recipients was remarkably better than that in group Ⅱ. The positive cells of apoptosis in group Ⅲ detected by TUNEL were not significantly different from that in group Ⅰ, but was significantly lower than that in group Ⅱ. LAT was detected at any time in group Ⅱ with peak expression at day 5 and day 7 post transplantation. In contrast, LAT was not detected in any other groups. CONCLUSION: Intrathymic inoculation of LSA protects hepatocytes from apoptosis after liver allotransplantation.
