Functional near-infrared spectroscopy is a non-invasive optical brain function detection technology,which can do multi-point measurement of changes on cerebral cortical area corresponding to the oxygenation of the blood hemoglobin and deoxygenated hemoglobin concentration,and then reflect the state of brain cortex function.Its greatest advantage is to allow the subjects head moving in a certain range,especially suitable for children.At present this technology could be applied to clinical pediatric,such as epilepsy,autism,attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder,neonatal disease,neurosurgery and cardiovascular surgery,etc.Functional near-infrared spectroscopy technology will have more applications in the field of research on brain function.

A large number of studies have confirmed that antiplatelet agents reduce the relative risk of stroke,myocardial infarction,or death by an average of 22％.However,many patients still have thrombotic events during the period of taking anti-platelet agents,and this is called anti-platelet agent resistance.Its incidences reported are very different.The incidence of aspirin is 3％ to 85％,and that of clopidogrel is 28％ to 44％.The exact cause of antiplatelet agent resistance remains unclear.It may be associated with several factors,including decreased drug bioavailability,genetic polymorphisms,activation of other platelet activation pathways,and increased circulating platelets.Currently,a variety of laboratory methods have been used to detect antiplatelet agent resistance,its criteria are different.In addition,the response measures of antiplatelet agent resistance also have no conclusion,and this has brought greater difficulties for the prevention and treatment of stroke.

Background phacoemulsification combined with limbal relaxing incision (LRI) is reported to be effective for the management of coexisting cataract astigmatism,but the influence of after phacoemulsification with LRI on corneal high-order aberration is still rarely reported.Objective This study was to evaluate the effect of cataract surgery with LRI for preoperative astigmatism or on corneal high-order aberration.Methods A selfcontrolled serial cases observational study was designed.A total of 35 cataractous eyes of 35 patients with astigmatism ≥ 1.0 D before cataract surgery were enrolled in Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital from August 2014 to April 2015 under the informed consent of patients.LRIs were performed on the eyes during the phacoemulsification and IOL implantation.The uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA),BCVA and optometry were recorded before operation and 1 day,1 week,1 month,3 months after operation.Pentacam was employed to measure the maximal and minimal diopters,astigmatism and high-order aberrations within 3 mm of the anterior corneal surface at above-mentioned time points.All the results were compared among different time points.The optometry outcomes and the anterior corneal surface astigmatism change were analyzed using vector analysis method.Results The UCVA was 0.34 ±0.22,0.38 ± 0.25,0.43±0.27,0.42±0.28 in 1 day,1 week,1 month and 3 months after operation,which was significantly higher than 0.08 ±0.09 before operation;and the BCVA was 0.54 ± 0.27,0.64 ± 0.29,0.67 ± 0.29,0.71 ± 0.32 in 1 day,1 week,1 month and 3 months after operation,showing a significant increase in comparison with 0.22±0.51 before operation(F=54.457,P=0.000;F =62.653,P =0.000).The refractive cylindrical error and corneal astigmatism were significantly decreased after operation in comparison with before operation (F =31.061,P =0.000;F =113.043,P=0.000).High order aberrations (HOA) at postoperative 1 day,1 week,1 month,3 months were all higher than those in preoperation (F =11.189,P =0.000) under the 4 mm pupil diameter.Compared with preoperation,the vertical coma,secondary vertical coma and three leaf clover were significantly increased(all at P＜0.05),but the horizontal coma and primary spherical aberration were not significantly changed (all at P＞0.05) under the 6 mm pupil diameter.Conclusions Phacoemulsification combined with LRI can reduce the corneal astigmatism effectively and steadily,and the increase of corneal aberrations does not affect visual acuity.

BACKGROUND:Breviscapine treatment of cerebral infarction has curative effects, few side effects, stable long-term efficacy and few side effects, which can improve the micro-environment of damaged central nervous system after cerebral infarction.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of breviscapine injection combined with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel transplantation on neurological recovery and growth-associated protein 43 expression in rats after cerebral infarction.
METHODS:Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats undergoing middle cerebral artery occlusion were randomized into cerebral infarction group, cel transplantation group and combined group. At 6 hours after modeling, 1 mL PBS, 1 mL bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel suspension (2.5×106), and 1 mL bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel suspension (2.5×106)+75 mg/kg breviscapine injection were respectively injected via the tail vein in the three groups, once a day, continuously for 5 days.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 2 weeks after transplantation, BrdU-positive bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels were mainly gathered in the peri-infarction region, and the number of positive cels was higher in the combined group than the other two groups (P < 0.01). At 1, 2, 3 weeks after transplantation, the neurological deficit scores were significantly lower in the combined group than the other two groups (P < 0.05). At 2 weeks after transplantation, the combined group had smaler infarct size, milder edema, and higher expression of growth-associated protein 43 as compared with the other two groups (P < 0.05). Under light microscope, glial cels proliferated dramaticaly and brain edema significantly reduced in the combined group. These findings indicate that breviscapine injection combined with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel transplantation can significantly reduce infarct size and brain edema, promote neurological recovery and increase the expression of growth-associated protein 43 in rats with cerebral infarction.

Recombinant antibodies have become the major growth trends in biotech industry following their success on therapeutic application and good revenue. But the low level of mammalian expression and laggard fermentation process constrained the development of antibody industry in China. The global advances of antibody industry were reviewed, compared the respective advantage between dihydrofolate reductase and glutamine synthetase expression system, continuous perfusion and fed-batch processes were compared. Finally, based on the knowledge and experience of antibody expression and fermentation, the suitable strategy of antibody industrialization, e.g. the fermentation model and scale, should depend on the comprehensive consideration of entrepreneur for the productivity, manufacturing capacity and market revenue. It may be a wise choice to use glutamine synthetase expression system and continuous perfusion process for the need of Chinese antibody industrialization.

In order to evaluate the anti-influenza virus activity of the effective monomer from Folium Isatidis (FI) in vivo, we established mice model with viral pneumonia and divided them into 3 different dose groups, then observed their lung indexes, pulmonary pathological changes, pulmonary virus hemagglitination titers, living time and death rates. The results showed that the monomer could reduce the pulmonary index from 2.64 to 1.93, 1.63 and 1.40 (P<0.01) and decrease the hemagglitination titer from 1.15 to 0.84, 0.70 and 0.59 (P<0.01). In addition,the living time from 5.1d to 6.5d, 8.4d and 8.9d respectively(P<0.01). The high dose (75 mg/kg/d) has the similar effect with 100 mg/kg/d dose of virazole(P>0.05), and more effective than 200 mg/kg/d dose of antiviral liquor (P<0.05).

AIM: To investigate the role of nitric oxide (NO) in vascular hyporeactivity during prolonged hemorrhagic shock (HS). METHODS: Anesthetized Sprague-Dawley rats (180-220 g) were subjected to HS insult in which they were bled to a mean arterial pressure (MAP) of 40 mmHg (5.33 kPa) and arteriolar reactivity to norepinephrine in spinotrapezius was detected. The constant MAP of 40 mmHg was maintained until vascular hyporeactivity had occurred and then were resuscitated or sacrificed for further analysis. NO synthase (NOS) activity was measured ex vivo by the conversion of [3H]-arginine to [3H]-citrulline in homogenates from heart, lung, liver, spleen, duodunum, skeletal muscle. 24 h survival rates of resuscitated rats were observed with and without administration of aminoguanidine (AG), a selective inducible NOS (iNOS) inhibitor. Mesenteric arteriolar smooth muscle cells (ASMC) were isolated, and the effects of L-arginine (L-Arg) on membrane potential (MP) of ASMC were determined by fluorescent probe and confocal microscopy in the absence and presence of AG. RESULTS: When vascular hyporeactivity occurred, an increase of NOS activity was observed in liver and heart. Resuscitated rats with AG had a higher survival rate compared with that of control. The MP of ASMC was decreased (more negative) immediately following the addition of L-Arg, and the hyperpolarization effects of L-Arg were partially blocked in the presence of AG. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that excessive NO produced in HS is responsible for the occurrence of vascular hyporeactivity in prolonged hemorrhagic shock, and one of the mechanisms of which may be hyperpolarization of ASMC caused by NO.

Objective To construct the vector pcDNA3.1 containing VEGF165 gene and examine of pcDNA3.1-VEGF165 vector to the angiopoiesis, composition of collagen in rabbit bone defect model. Methods Extract total RNA from the rabbit tissue. Prepare cDNA by inverse transcription and clone the gene by PCR. Clone plasmid pMD18-T/VEGF165 combined with pcDNA3.1 to reconstruct pcDNA3.1- VEGF165. 28 New Zealand white rabbits weighted (2.0?0.130) kg were made bone defect model for 10 mm length in the bilateral radii. Cut down the skin, resect the bone of 10 mm in length in the middle of radius. The pcDNA3.1-VEGF165 0.2 ml (200 ng) plasmid was injected at one defect side randomly. The defect in the other side was served as control group, and injected with absorbable gelatin sponge and sodium chloride 0.2 ml. After the examination by X-ray the local specimens were obtained at 1,2,4,6,8,and 12 weeks respectively. The expression of collagen type Ⅰ and Ⅲ was examined at 4, 12 weeks by immunohistochemical staining techniques. Results The pcDNA3.1-VEGF165 vector was constructed successfully. The roentgenography: there was no difference between the two sides after 1 week operation; 2 weeks after the operation, there were some callus in the experimental group; there was nothing in the control group. After 4 weeks, there were much callus, synostosis and others in the experimental group, all of these were late in the control group. Two groups were healed after 12 weeks, the bone density was lower in the control group. Inflammatory cell infiltrate, cellular interstitialis, fibroblast, collagen and osteoblast were no difference between the two groups only at the first week, but the density of angiogenesis was much more in the experimental group at the following times. Expression of collagen type Ⅰ, Ⅲ were more intensity in the experimental group than the control one at 4,12 weeks. Conclusion Transcription to local bone cells at defect position with pcDNA3.1-VEGF165 plasmid can enhance quantity of the angiopoiesis, extra cellular matrix and the healing of bone defect.

Objective: To examine the effect of mouthwashing before dental procedure on environmental pollution of microorganism in dental clinic. Methods: Air samples in dental clinic after tooth preparation whether using mouthwashes or not pre operationally were collected and cultured with blood agar plates, the bacteria colonies formed on the plates in different groups were counted as the index for air contamination. Results: Environmental contamination from tooth preparation in dental clinic could be reduced significantly by using mouthwash pre operationally( P 0.05), but the size of the colonies formed on the plates in Kou Jie Su group was smaller than that in drinking water group. Conclusion: Environmental contamination from tooth preparation in dental clinic can be reduced by using mouthwash pre operationally. Combination of the pre operational mouthwashing with vacuum aspirator or ventilation installation may be a better way to control the possible cross infection in dental clinic.
