Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 1985;0(06):-
Male mice weighting 25-32g were infected with larvae of Trichinella spiralis. Skin administrations of mebendazole composite cream were carried out on the mice in 3 different experiment groups. It was found that there were the reduction rate of worms at 97.3%, 100% and 99. 7% in the adult worm group (50 mg/kg x 1 d), in the invasive larvae group (25 mg/kg x 7 d) and in the encysted larvae group (25 mg/kg x 7 d), respectively. These results indicate that mebendazole composite cream is very effective against both intestinal and muscular phases of T. spiralis.
2.Advance in Research of Stress and Ventricular Arrhythmias (review)
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2008;14(2):155-156
Ventricular arrhythmias closely correlates with stress.Not only individuals with organic heart diseases have a high risk of ventricular arrhythmias,healthy individuals are also susceptible to ventricular arrhythmias during stress.Electrophysiological characteristics of myocardium changes apparently during stress and electrical unstability of myocardium increases,which makes reentry and early afterdepolarization easy to happen.

Microfilariae (mff) obtained from the peritoneal cavities of infected jirds (Meriones unguiculatus) were injected intravenously into 6 mouse strains: SMMC/B, BALB/cCR, LACA, ICR/JCL, 615 and Kunming strain. The mff in the peripheral blood of the 6 mouse strains in the above sequence were detectable within 1-150, 24-80, 30-60, 3-96, 12-45 and 45-60 days after inoculation of 2 ? 105 mff per mouse. The survival period of mff was longer in SMMC/B mice than in mice of the other strains, and the density of mff in blood was also higher in the former than in the latter. Out of 18 SMMC/B mice 13 remained microfilaria-positive on the 60th day after inoculation. The duration and level of microfilaraemia were proportional to the dose of parasites injected Microfilariae disappeared from the peripheral blood of all mice 3 days after injection of 1 ?104 mff, but were still detectable 60 days after injection of 2 ? 105 mff. In addition, mff disappeared much faster from the peripheral blood of SMMC/B mice after the second inoculation than after the first one. Although the mff had already disappeared from the peripheral blood of the infected and reinfected mice for about 1 to 2 months, they could still be found in the internal organs, mostly in the small blood vessels of the lungs (about 90%). The mff maintained a nocturnal sub-periodicity in the recipient mice, similar to those observed in the donor jirds, with a peak density hour between 2:28 and 5: 48 a.m.The results show that this mouse model might be a simple and useful system in which various factors controlling the fate of mff can be studied independently.

Objective To observe the ultrastructure of pancreas in the bustard( Otis tarda limaells) . Methods Three bustard's pancreas were observed with electron microscope. Results The exocrine secretory units of bustard's pancreas contain a lobulated tubulo acinar gland in which the lobulation is not so distinct as that of the mammalian gland due to the lack of interlobular connective tissue septa.The space between lobular pancreas is lined directly with pancreatic cells as the duct.Single long spindle shaped connective tissue cell could only be seen among three lobules and its cytoplasm becomes slender and stretches into the space between lobules as a distinct intermediate dense line.The exocrine secretory cells can be divided into two kinds of dark and light.In the light cell,particularly in swelled up rER with very little density are filled the greater part of the cytoplasm and made the cell appearance much lighter than other cells.\;The endocrine cells are divided into two types that are dispersed in pancreatic singly and clustered into pancreatic islets.The dispersed endocrine cells contain a lot of moderate dark electron dense granules in their process near basement membrane.There are two types of islets——A islet and B islet in the bustard pancreas.A islets comprise only one cell type with moderate electron density that contains dark endocrine granules.B islet contains two cell types:B and D cell.B cells are the most numerous cells with a long ovoid nucleus and contains two or three types of granules in the cytoplasm.D cells are relatively rare and can be seen in the periphery nearby basement membrane.Cells keep close to each other and desmosomes can be seen within the islet.The endocrine cells closely contact exocrine cells without basement membrane in the periphery partly.Conclusion\ These are some structural characteristics that adapt to fly and that are different from other animal in bustard's pancreas.

The structure and 5-HT immunoreactivity in the brain and suboesophageal ganglion of three beetles, Ambrostoma quadriimpressum, Henosepilachna vigintioctomaculata and Oxycetonia jucunda, were first studied by means of colophony-paraffin embedding serial section technique and strepteavidin-peroxidase immunohistochemical method. The results showed that the brains of these three taxonomically closely related beetles were remarkably different in composition and size. Mushroom bodies and antennal lobes in Oxycetonia jucunda were conspicuous. Calyces and lobes of the mushroom bodies.were much developed. In contrast, calyces of Ambrostoma quadriimpressum and Henosepilachna vigintioctomaculata were extremely undeveloped. However, the postretinal fibres and circumpharyngeal nerves of Ambrostoma quadriimpressum were highly developed. In the three beetles, 5-HT immunoreactivity was present in all neuropils of the brain and the suboesophageal ganglion. The pattern of 5-HT immunoreactivity and the localization of immunoreactive somata which often clustered into groups were similar among these beetles, while the immunoreactivity intensity was distinct, especially in the lamina. The results suggest that the three beetles have given rise to adaptive radiation under the evolutionary pressure because of the long-term different life styles and living environments in which the taxonomic status of Ambrostoma quadriimpressum is relatively low. The similarity of the pattern of 5-HT immunoreactivity and localization of some positive somata among the three beetles raise the possibility that 5-HT seemes to serve similar physiological function in different insects. Furthermore, 5-HT might be involved in modulating the ingestion by regulating muscular activity and visual sensitivity.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of low molecular weight heparin sodium (LMWHS) therapy for exertional heat stroke (EHS) patients with pre-disseminated intravascular coagulation (pre-DIC).Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted. Thirty-six patients with EHS with pre-DIC admitted to Department of Critical Care Medicine of 180th Hospital of Chinese PLA from April 2012 to November 2014 were divided into heparin sodium group (n = 20) and LMWHS group (n = 16) in accordance with the random number table. All patients received bundle treatment after being admitted to the hospital, including rapid cooling, fluid resuscitation, organ support (mechanical ventilation, hemopurification if necessary), supplement of pro-coagulation factors, etc. The patients in heparin sodium group were treated with continuous heparin sodium 12 500 U throughout 24 hours with intravenous pump for 5 days, and the patients in LMWHS group were given LMWHS 2 500 U subcutaneously, twice a day for 5 days.The incidence of DIC, incidence of bleeding and mortality of two groups were compared.The platelet count (PLT), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (Fib) and D-dimer of each patient between pre and post treatment times were compared.Results No significant difference was found in the incidence of DIC and mortality between LMWHS group and heparin sodium group (31.2% vs. 30.0%,χ2 =0.007,P = 0.936; 6.2% vs. 5.0%,χ2 = 0.026,P = 0.871). Incidence of bleeding during treatment in LMWHS group was significantly lower than that in heparin sodium group (12.5% vs. 45.0%,χ2 = 4.425,P = 0.035). After treatment,PLT in both LMWHS group and heparin sodium group was significantly increased compared with that before treatment (×109/L: 140.5±17.5 vs. 110.5±16.5, 152.6±21.5 vs. 120.0±20.0, bothP< 0.05) and D-dimer was significantly decreased (mg/L: 0.5±0.1 vs. 3.2±1.2, 0.6±0.2 vs. 4.4±1.8, bothP< 0.05). APTT after treatment in heparin sodium group was significantly prolonged compared with that before treatment (s: 75.3±10.6 vs. 44.1±8.2,P< 0.05) while no change in APTT was found in LMWHS group (s: 38.6±5.5 vs. 42.1±8.4,P> 0.05). No significant difference was found in PT and Fib between pre and post treatment in all the patients.Conclusion When LMWHS was applied in EHS patients in pre-DIC stage, it could not only prevent DIC as efficiently as heparin sodium, but also results in lower incidence of bleeding. So LMWHS is safer.

To study the effects of surfactants on wettability of excipients, the contact angles of six types of surfactants on the surface of two common excipients and mixture of three surfactants with excipients were measured using hypsometry method. The results demonstrated that contact angle of water on the surface of excipients was associated with hydrophilcity of excipients. Contact angle was lowered with increase in hydrophilic groups of excipient molecules. The sequence of contact angle from small to large was starch < sodium benzoate < polyvinylpyrrolidone < sodium carboxymethylcellulose < sodium alginate < chitosan < hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose
