AIM: To verify the neuroprotective effect and optimize the therapeutic dose and time window of picroside Ⅱon cerebral ischemic injury in rats .METHODS:The forebrain ischemia model was established by the method of bilateral common carotid artery occlusion ( BCCAO ) .The successful model rats were randomly divided into 16 groups according to orthogonal design and treated by intraperitoneal injection of picroside Ⅱat different ischemic time poinis and different doses .The changes of the nerve fiber myelin were observed by fast green staining .The immunohistochemical assay and Western blotting were used to quantitatively and qualitatively determine the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP). The mRNA level of MBP in the brain tissues was tested by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).RE-SULTS:Picroside Ⅱ increased the expression of MBP and decreased demyelination after cerebral ischemic injury .The best therapeutic time window and dose were:(1) ischemia for 2.0 h with picrosideⅡat dose of 10 mg/kg according to the results of fast green staining;(2) ischemia for 2.0 h with the dose of 10 mg/kg according to the results of immunohisto-chemical assay;(3) ischemia for 2.0 h with the dose of 10 mg/kg according to the analysis of Western blotting;(4) is-chemia for 1.5 h with the dose of 20 mg/kg according to the detection of RT-PCR.CONCLUSION:Given the principle of the lowest therapeutic dose with the longest time window , the optimized therapeutic dose and time window for rat cerebral ischemic injury is intraperitoneal injection of picroside Ⅱat the doses of 10~20 mg/kg and the time window of ischemia for 1.5~2.0 h.

With Jianyu (LI 15), Jianliao (TE 14) and Jianzhen (SI 9) for instance, the three acupoints used to treat shoulder bi syndrome by needle knife, and through traceability and researching constant structure, the acupoint position, insertion trace, manipulation and clinical significance of needle knife medicine were discussed. Accurate position is one of the characteristics of acupoints selection of needle knife medicine. As for the acupoints selection method, the mean of body surface localization is always used. The phanerous or palpable bone processes, muscles and tendons are taken as positioning marks; pressing areas where appear sour, numb, or distensible and other sensations is considered as the principle of press positioning. So acupoints position method is the combination of observation and palpation. Different insertion methods can effectively relieve the accretive bursae synovialis, tendon, joint capsule and the compressed nerve, so that shoulder bi syndrome is relieved.

Objective To compare the efficacy of different does of remifenanil combined with propofol for colonoscopy.Methods Ninety ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 35-63 yr,weighing 45-72 kg,scheduled for elective painless outpatient colonoscopy,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =30 each):remifentanil 0.2 μg/kg group (group Ⅰ),remifentanil 0.5 μg/kg group (group lⅡ) and remifentanil 1.0 μg/kg group (group Ⅲ).In groups Ⅰ-Ⅲ,remifentanil 0.2,0.5 and 1.0μg/kg were injected over 60 s,respectively,and then propofol 1.0 mg/kg was injected intravenously for induction.The colonoscope was inserted after loss of eyelash reflex.When body movement appeared during examination,remifentanil 0.1 μg/kg + propofol 0.5 mg/kg,remifentanil 0.25 μg/kg + propofol 0.5 mg/kg,and remifentanil 0.5μg/kg+ propofol 0.5 mg/kg were added in groups Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ,respectively.The operation time,induction time,emergence time,examination room discharge time,and body movement,hypotension,bradycardia,hypoxemia and respiratory depression during operation were recorded.Results There was no significant difference in the operation time,induction time,emergence time,and examination room discharge time between the three groups (P ＞ 0.05).Compared with group Ⅰ,the incidence of body movement was significantly decreased,and the incidences of hypotension and respiratory depression were increased in group Ⅱ,and the incidence of body movement was significantly decreased,and the incidences of hypotension,hypoxemia,bradycardia and respiratory depression were increased in group Ⅲ (P ＜ 0.05).The incidences of hypoxemia,bradycardia and respiratory depression were significantly higher in group Ⅲ than in group Ⅱ (P ＜0.05).Conclusion The optimum dose of remifentanil is 0.5 μg/kg when combined with propofol for colonoscopy.

Objective To explore the clinical application of endometrial scratching in patients with repeated implantation failure(RIF).Methods A total of 189 women with RIF who planned to undergo in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer(IVF‐ET)once again at the Reproductive Medicine Center of Tongji Hospital ,Huazhong University of Science and Technology ,be‐tween October 2013 and August 2014 ,were prospectively examined.These women were infertile due to tubal factors ,with their male partners having normal semen measurements.According to the case numbers ,the 189 patients were randomly divided into experimental group(n=96)and control group(n=93).In the experimental group ,endometrial scratching was conducted within 6 h of one menstrual cycle one month before oocyte retrieval ,while in control group ,no endometrial scratching was performed at that time.The outcomes of pregnancy were compared between the two groups after embryo transplantation.Results There was no statistical difference between the two groups in the patient age ,infertility duration ,body mass index(BMI) ,basal levels of follicle‐stimulating hormone(FSH) ,luteinizing hormone(LH) ,and progesterone(P) ,gonadotropin‐releasing hormone(Gn‐RH) injection days and doses ,the number of retrieved oocytes ,the number of transferred embryos ,the endometrial thickness and lev‐els of estradiol(E2 )and P on the day of HCG injection(P>0.05).The embryo implantation rate ,the clinical pregnancy rate and the ongoing pregnancy rate in the experimental group were much higher than those in the control group ,with statistically signif‐icant difference noted(P<0.01).Conclusion The endometrial scratching can improve the endometrial receptivity and enhance the clinical pregnancy rate of RIF patients.

Objective To develop Z-score reference ranges for tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion(TAPSE) in normal fetuses from the measurements of gestational age(GA),biparietal diameter (BPD) or femur length(FL) using fetal echocardiography.Methods A retrospective cross sectional study of 1012 singleton normal fetuses were performed.The gestation age ranged from 20 to 41 weeks.Non-cardiac fetal biometric parameters included GA and BPD and FL were measured and calculated GA based on menstrual age.TAPSE was measured in a standard apical four-chamber view by free angle M-mode echocardiography.Normal Z-score ranges were developed for TAPSE using GA,BPD and FL as independent variables.These were accomplished by using first standard regression analysis and then weighted regression of absolute residual values for each parameter in order to adjust for inconstant variance.Results Linear regression model was the best description of the data in each case and correlations between TASPE and independent variables (GA,BPD,FL) were excellent.Heteroscedasticity of standard deviation (SD) with increasing independent variables also could be modeled with a simple linear regression.According to these equations,TAPSE Z-score =(the actual measurement of TAPSE-predicted TAPSE)/prediction SD.Conclusions Normal reference ranges and Z-scores for TAPSE have been provided.These normative data may be useful tools for assessment of fetal TAPSE,to evaluate fetal right ventricular function more accurately and effectively.

Objective To establish z-score model for fetal tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion(FAM-TAPSE) and mitral annular plane systolic excursion(FAM-MAPSE) based on gestational age(GA),then to evaluate the ventricle systolic function of fetus with heart failure.Methods One thousand and twelve normal fetuses and 24 fetuses with heart failure were involved. FAM-TAPSE and FAM-MAPSE were measured by free angle M-mode echocardiography,and FAM-TAPSE and FAM-MAPSE z-score models of normal fetuses were constructed by using first standard regression analysis with GA as independent variable.The fetuses with heart failure were divided into left heart failure (LHF) group and right heart failure (RHF) group by Tei index.Subsequently,the two parameters between normal and fetuses with heart failure were compared. Results The models used to calculate z-score for FAM-TAPSE and FAM-MAPSE were constructed,and GA had close correlation with them. Compared with normal fetuses,the mean z-scores of FAM-TAPSE and FAM-MAPSE were statistically different in fetuses with heart failure(P<0.001). The FAM-MAPSE z-scores of LHF and the FAM-TAPSE z-scores of RHF were all less than-2 z-scores.Conclusions The FAM-TAPSE and FAM-MAPSE z-scores decline in fetuses with heart failure and they can provide quantitative evidence in evaluation of heart systolic function,FAM-TAPSE and FAM-MAPSE z-score would be markers for assessing heart systolic function in fetuses with heart failure.
