Objective To investigate the potential role of tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor-6(TRAF6)in the rat cerebral ischema-reperfusion injury.Methods 40 healthy adult SD rats were divided into 5 groups(n=8)according to the ran-dom control principle:sham operation group,ischemia group,reperfusion 2 h group(R2 h),reperfusion 12 h group(R12 h)and reperfusion 24 h group(R24 h).The rat cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model was constructed.The change of TRAF6 expres-sion was examined by RT-PCR and Western-blot.Then,the immunohistochemistry was adopted to locate the TRAF6 protein.Re-sults Compared with the sham group,the expression of TRAF6 in the ischemia group and the R2 h,R12 h and R 24 h groups was obviously increased,but the difference had no statistical significance (P <0.05).TRAF6 was mainly located in the cytoplasm of neuronal cells.Conclusion Activated TRAF6 is involved in the brain cell death induced by cerebral ischemia-reperfusion.

AIM: To explore the effect of hTERT gene antisense phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotide (ASODN) on telomerase activity in Raji cells. METHODS: Polymerase chain reaction enzyme-linked immuonassay (PCR-ELISA) was used to determine telomerase activity. The expression levels of hTERT mRNA and protein were assayed by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunofluorescence using fluoresce isothiocyanate (FITC) label,respectively. RESULTS: RT-PCR and immunofluorescence assay showed that the expression levels of hTERT mRNA and protein from Raji cells decreased with time after hTERT ASODN treatment. There was no difference in hTERT mRNA and protein levels between control and SODN-treated cells. Telomerase activity decreased when Raji cells were treated with ASODN for 48 h. Telomerase activity of Raji cells was significantly inhibited when treated with ASODN for 72 h. There was no difference in telomerase activity levels between control and hTERT SODN-treated cells. CONCLUSION: hTERT ASODN could inhibit telomerase activity in Raji cells.

Objective To observe the stressor characteristic of patients with maintained hemodialy-sis (MHD). Methods The Chinese version of bemodialysis stressor seale(HSS) was adopted among 436 bemodialysis participants and the results underwent analysis. Results Among 436 patients psychological stressors> physiological stressers > social stressors, the most severe stressors included the requirement of long-term dialysis, the rest showed sequence from high to low: medical cost, concerning about the future,changes in family responsibility and decrease in sexuality. The slightest stressors included decreased ability to procreate, being limited in some styles of clothing, arterial and venous stick, reversal in family role with the children and changes in body appearance. Significant differences existed in patients with different age,gender, education background, working status and economic status, it manifested as follows: the more elder-ly, the more severity of stress, male patients had more severe stress than the female, patients with higher e-ducation background showed lower stress level, patients who kept working had lower level of stress, pa-tients who had better economic status showed lower stress level. Conclusions MHD patients often expe-rience high stress levels. Some measures should be taken to help MHD patients to cope better with stress.

Objective To analyse the clinical features and risk factors of interstitial lung disease in primary SjSgren's syndrome (pSS).Methods A retrospective study was employed.All 130 pSS patients who were hospitalized during 2004 to 2006 were enrolled into this study.Thirty-seven clinical and laboratory variables were used as the research factors and interstitial lung involvement as the related factor.The data were analyzed with the Logistic regression model.Results of 130 patients,22(16.9%) had interstitial lung involvement.Twelve patients were asymptomic when pulmonary involvement was detected.Variables in the univariate analysis which were significantly associated with lung fibrosis were age,exocrine glands(including parotid,sublingual gland and submandibular gland) swelling,oral ulceration and fever.Positive rate of antiU1RNP antibody in group of lung damage was significantly higher than non-lung damage group [5/22(22.7%)vs 6/108 (5.6%),P=0.021].In the Logistic regression model.variables which were significantly associated with pulmonary involvement were exocrine glands swelling (OR=3.739,95%CI 1.069～16.079,P＜0.05).oral ulceration (OR=3.739,95%CI 1.069～16.079,P＜0.05)and fever (OR=3.067,95%CI 1.198～20.067,P＜0.05).Conclusions This study indicates that some of the pulmonary damages of pSS are subclinical.Exocrine glands swelling,oral ulceration and fever are the risk factors for interstitial pulmonary involvements in pSS.

Objective To investigate the treatment of complex fractures of distal femur with open reduction and internal fixation with anatomical plate. Methods From January 2001 to June 2004, 67 cases of complex fractures of distal femur were treated with open reduction and anatomical plate internal fixation. The allogeneic bone was grafted for 23 cases, ilium was grafted for 35 cases, ilium and fibula were grafted for 9 cases. Bio- resorbable membranes were used between quadriceps femoris and femur. 13 cases were aided with patella traction. All the patients received fumigation and rinsing with Chinese herbs and CPM(continuous passive motion) after operation. Results All the 67 cases were followed up for 10 to 26 months. All the fractures got united. The postoperative knee functions were excellent in 36 cases, good in 23 cases, fair in 5 cases, and poor in 3 cases according to Kolment standards. The excellent and good rate was 88.1% . Conclusions Open reduction, internal fixation with anatomical plate, bone grafting, local use of bio- resorbable membranes, patella traction when necessary, fumigation and rinsing with Chinese herbs and CPM after operation are good measures to treat complex fractures of the distal femur, because they can provide stable fixation, allow early postoperative functional training, and prevent adhesion of quadriceps femoris and stiffness of the knee joint
