Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of left-handed pantoprazole sodium on rat models of gastric ulcer generated by pyloric ligation .Methods The rat models induced by pylorus ligation were treated with a single intravenous injection of left-handed pantoprazole sodium .The gastric ulcer inhibition rate , volume of gastric juice, activity of pepsin, and level of serum gastrin were determined and gastric mucosa tissue was examined by pathology . Results The gastric ulcer index , volume of gastric juice , activity of pepsin and level of serum gastrin in the rats pretreated with left-handed pantoprazole sodium (0.9, 1.8, 3.6 mg/kg, i.v.) were significantly lower than those in the model group .The lesions of gastric mucosa were also improved in the pantoprazole-treated groups .Conclusions Left-handed pantoprazole sodium has remarkable protective effects on the gastric mucosa in rat models of gastric ulcer induced by pyloric ligation.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value and safety of thoracoscopy routine pleural biopsy combined with frozen biopsy for pleural effusion. Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the pathological diagnosis rate of pleural effusion. Results 120 cases in thoracoscopy, 103 cases were confirmed with routine biopsy specimens (85.8%), 16 cases found in the lesions with conventional clamp not satisfactory tissue specimens, combined with frozen cut obtained satisfactory specimens, the diagnostic accuracy rate of 16 cases of cryobiopsy was 100.0%, and the total diagnostic accuracy rate of medical thoracoscopy combined with pleural biopsy and cryobiopsy was 95.0%. There was significant difference between conventional biopsy and cryobiopsy (P < 0.05). Conclusion Medical thoracoscopy combined with pleural biopsy and cryobiopsy can achieve a higher rate of pathological diagnosis, and the complications are mild, so it is worthy of clinical promoting.

Objective To discuss combined detection of pleural biopsy under medical thoracoscopy and pulmonary serum tumor markers in diagnosis of pleural effusion with unknown reason.Methods 76 patients with pleural effusion caused by unknown reason from January 2014 to March 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Pleural biopsy was conducted under medical thoracoscopy and sent for pathological examination, and 10 ml venous blood was collected from these patients upon admission for testing serum tumor markers (CEA, SCC-AG, ProGRP and CYFRA21-1).Results Among the 76 patients, there were 32 cases with benign lesions (14 with pulmonary tuberculosis, 9 with inlfammatory lesions, 6 with granulomatous inlfammation, 2 with empyema and 1 with hamartoma) and 44 cases with malignant lesions (18 with adenocarcinoma, 13 with squamous carcinoma, 6 with small cell lung cancer, 3 with adeno-squamous carcinoma, 2 with mesothelioma, 1 with large cell carcinoma and 1 with thymoma). The detection of serum tumor markers showed statistically significant differences in the levels of CEA, SCC-AG, ProGRP and CYFRA21-1 in serum between the malignant pleural effusion group and benign pleural effusion group (P = 0.021,P = 0.006,P = 0.003 andP = 0.010). The levels of various serum tumor markers in the malignant pleural effusion group were obviously higher than those in the benign pleural effusion group. According to the pathological results, patients with pleural effusions not caused by lung cancer (2 with mesothelioma and 1 with thymoma) were eliminated from 44 patients with malignant pleural effusions. The rest 41 patients with pleural effusions caused by lung cancer were divided into non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer according to the pathological types. The results showed that there were statistically signiifcant differences in the levels of CEA, ProGRP and CYFRA21-1 between non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer (P = 0.036,P = 0.005 andP = 0.008), while there was no statistically signiifcant difference in the level of SCC-AG (P = 0.811).Conclusions Due to high detection rate and high accuracy in detecting pleural effusions caused by unknown reason, medical thoracoscopy is of great signiifcance, especially for the diagnosis of malignant pleural effusions of pleural metastases. However, serum indicators may provide important reference values for us before the pathological results are available. Thus, it is an important means of diagnosing malignant pleural effusions caused by lung cancer and should be promoted in clinic.

This paper was to explore the relationship between plasma omentin and obesity and insulin resistance in patients of polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).The results showed that there were statistically significant differences in serum omentin levels among control group,PCOS-normal weight group,and PCOS-overweight group [(115.29 ± 33.92),(111.12 ± 34.50),and (42.85 ± 19.39) pg/ml,P< 0.05].Omentin were negatively correlated with homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance(HOMA-IR) and body mass index(BMI).In the multiple stepwise regression analysis,only omentin was negatively correlated with BMI.Omentin may be involved in the development of PCOS by affecting obesity.

Objective To investigate the effects of high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) at different intensities on the ultrastructure of an ischemic brain penumbra and the expression of brainderived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) using rats with permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO).Methods Forty-two rats were randomly divided into a blank control group,an MCAO model control group,a sham stimulation control group and an rTMS group.The rTMS group was divided further into 3 subgroups:an 80% of motor threshold (MT) subgroup,a 100% of MT subgroup and a 120% of MT subgroup.The cerebral infarction model was established by right MCAO.rTMS treatment was given 24 hours after the MCAO model was successfully established.The rTMS group and sham stimulation control group were given 20 Hz rTMS with the planned intensities.The MCAO model control group was not given any stimulation.After 14 days of treatment,transmission electron microscopy,immunohistochemical and Western blotting ( WB ) methods were used to investigate the ultrastructure of the ischemic penumbra and the expression of BDNF.Results Damage reflected in the ultrastructure in the 3 rTMS subgroups was less than in the model control group and the sham stimulation control group.Expression of BDNF protein increased significantly in 100% of the MT group and blank control group rats as compared with that in the sham stimulation control group,while the blank control group and the 3 rTMS subgroups had no statistically significant difference in comparison with the MCAO model control group.The expression of BDNF protein had no statistically significant difference between any of the groups.Conclusion 20 Hz rTMS might,especially at 100% of the MT,promote the recovery of the ultrastructure of neural tissues in the ischemic penumbra after acute cerebral infarction and enhance the expression of BDNF in the ipsilesional hemisphere.This may be one of the important mechanisms of rTMS's effectiveness in the treatment of ischemic stroke.

Objective To identify the risk factors for deep vein thrombosis(DVT) in the lower extremities during hospitalization for acute spinal cord injury(SCI).Methods Retrospective data analyses were performed for 49 SCI patients admitted within a week after they were diagnosed.The patients were divided into a DVT-free(n =40) group and a DVT group(n =9) according to their lower limbs' color Doppler ultrasound results.And the subjects' gender,age,chronic diseases (diabetes,hypertension and hyperlipidemia,etc.),complications (pulmonary infection,urinary tract infections and pressure sores,etc.),the history of cancer,smoking history and lower extremity fractures were recorded.Intermittent pneumatic compression treatment,the early rehabilitation intervention,antithrombotic therapy,history of venous catheterization,operative intervention,blood transfusion history,muscle strength of lower extremity and time from onset to being transfered to rehabilitation department were also recorded Single factor analysis,was conducted,followed by Binary logistic regression to pick out the risk factors for DVT.Results The result of the binary logistic regression analysis showed that gender (OR 6.87 ; 95% CI 1.09-43.22 ;P < 0.05) and intermittent pneumatic compression treatment (OR 12.47 ; 95% CI 1.09-142.36 ; P < 0.05) were significant predictors of DVT.Conclusion Gender and intermittent pneumatic compression treatment are related with DVT risk for patients with acute SCI.
