Many anorectal opearations may result in damage to anal sphincter function and,as a result,patients have problems when they are defecating.Measuring anal sphincter function not only benefit for operating,but also may help prevent operating complications and do good for rehabilitation.Therefor,measuring anal sphincter function is important.This article will review those measures about anal sphincter function.

Effects of mannan-oligosaccharide (MOS) on the growth of Lactobacillus were investigated by pure culture of three swine originated Lactobacillus strains or co-culture with swine pathogenic E. coli. The pure culture results revealed that OD values and lactic acid concentration of three Lactobacillus strains in the MOS supplemented cultures were higher than those of the control group without MOS supplementation, a lower pH was observed for MOS supplement compared with that of the control group. The co-culture results showed that MOS were utilized by both Lactobacillus strains and swine pathogenic E. coli strain. But Lac-tobacillus grew faster than the latter. A significant increase in lactic acid concentration (P

The Conus venom is secreted by the duct and theca of venom. Most of conotoxins are composed of 10-40 amino acid residues with several disulfide bridges. They can specifically target neurotransmitter receptors including nAChRs, calcium ion channels, sodium ion channels and potassium ion channels, etc. Some conotoxins, such as that target N-Ca2+ channels, nAChR alpha9alpha10 subtype, TTX-R Na+ channels or NMDA receptors, have potent antinociceptive activities, omega-MVIIA, an Ca2+ channels blocker was approved by FDA in December, 2004 for marketing. Because of lower molecular weight and high specificity, conotoxins are the powerful pharmacology tools and potent analgesics without addiction. This review briefly summarizes the research progress of antinociceptive conotoxins and addresses on their targets and structure-activity relationships.

Objective To investigate the Human papillomavirus(HPV)infection in different age groups of women in Shenyang, and explore its correlation with cervical biopsy diagnosis.Methods 7 311 women aged 13-85 did HPV test and thin-cytologic test (TCT)in the hospital.Some of them had biopsy detection under electronic colposcopy,and the pathological diagnosis was the golden standard for the diagnosis of cervical lesions.SPSS18.0 statistical software was used for all statistical analysis.Results The infection rate of <30 years old women was significantly higher than that of 30 - <40,40 - <50,≥50 years old women (P <0.05).The most prevalent high-risk HPV genotype in Shenyang were subtype 16,52,58,53,33,31 and 18,and the most prevalent low-risk HPV subtypes were 81,11 and 6.The former 4 subtypes of high-risk HPV infection accounted for 67.3% of all high-risk infection.As to the 4 subtypes with higher infection rate,the infection rate of ≥40 years old women was higher than that of <40 years old(χ2 =20.29,P =0.00).The top two low-risk HPV subtypes accounted for 74.8% of the infections.The mean age of the ICC patients were 48.3,which was statistically different from the other groups(P <0.05).Cervical lesions occured mostly in 40-49 years old,which accounted for 37.1% and was higher than the other agees(P <0.01).HPV16 infection rate increased with the severity of cervical lesions.Conclusion HPV DNA genotyping is a necessary methord for cervical cancer screen,an effective com-plement for precancerous lesions diagnosis which was missed in cytology test,and also an indispensable test for CIN treatment and follow-up after operation.

Background The use of adaptive optics (AO) system in ophthalmic clinic and basic studies has increased in recent years.However,there are few reports on the stability of ocular aberrations after correction.Objective This study was to analyze the stability of aberration after correction by observing the repeatability of ocular aberration measurements.Methods Forty-one postgraduate school students and volunteers who meet the conditions were included from February to April 2014.The Zernike aberration coefficients including astigmatism (Z2-2,Z22),defocus (Z02),trefoil (Z33,Z3-3),coma (Z3-1,Z13),spherical aberration (Z40) and the value of root mean square (RMS) including 3rd-order to 7th-order aberrations,total higher-order aberrations (HOAs) and total ocular aberrations (TOAs) were measured by using AO system.The repeatability and stability of these data after corrected with AO system were analyzed.The repeatability was evaluated by ANOVA,within-subject standard deviation (Sw),repeatability (r) and intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC).The stability was evaluated by the nonparametric Friedman's rank test.Results AO system showed excellent repeatability on Z2-2,Z22,Z20 and TOA RMS (ICC＞ 0.9),good repeatability on Z13,Z33,Z3-3,Z40,3rd-order RMS,4th-order RMS,HOA RMS (ICC ＞ 0.75),poor repeatability on Z3-1,5th-order RMS,6th-order RMS,7th-order RMS (ICC ＜ 0.75).Repeatability (2.77 Sw) values ranged from 0.009 mm (7th-order RMS) to 0.163 mm (Z31).After low-order ocular aberrations were corrected,It was founded that Z2-2,Z22 reached stable state at the 4th second;Z02 was stable at the 6th second;Z3-3 and Z33 reached stable state at the 4th second and third second,separately;Z13 was stable from 3rd-second to 9th-second,Z3-1 was stable at the 4th-second.Z40 and HOA RMS were stable at the third second and fifth second,respectively.The Z2-2,Z02,Z22,Z3-3,Z3-1,Z33,Z40 and HOA RMS were significantly different among different time points before and after low-order aberrations correction (all at P ＜ 0.05).Z2-2,Z22,Z20 reached stable state at the 4th-second,3rd-second and 5th-second,respectively;Z3-3,Z33 reached stable state at the 2nd-second and 3rd-second,respectively;Z3-1and Z40 reached stable state at the 2nd-second;HOA RMS reached stable state at the 5th-second.Conclusions After correcting the human ocular aberration,different aberrations can reach stable state at different time.The time of Z02,Z22,Z3-3,Z3-1,Z40reaching stable state after 2nd-order to 5th-order ocular aberrations correction was earlier than those of lower-order aberrations correction.

Objective In order to lay the foundation for establishment of a clean grade Meriones meridianus popu-lation, and provide reference for the formulation of Meriones meridianus parasite detection standard.Methods A survey of parasite infection in Meriones meridianus was carried out, and three kinds of antiparasitic drugs, tetramethrin/per-methrin, praziquantel, and tinidazole were used in high-, medium-and low-doses for eradication of the target parasites. Results Three types of parasites were detected among the animals.The infection rate of surface parasite Myobia musculi was 82.1%(23/28), that of intestinal parasite Hymenolepis nana was 78.1% (25/32) and Tritrichomonas muris was 90.6%(29/32).Significant results of parasite eradication were achieved with the antiparasitic drugs.Medicated bath u-sing 1%tetramethrin/permethrin for 30 s every 4 days for 5 times and 1.5%tetramethrin/permethrin for 30 s every 4 days for 3 times completely eradicated the surface Myobia musculi infection.Praziquantel in a dose of 31 mg/kg by daily gastric gavage for consecutive 7 days was the optimal dosage to completely eradicate the intestinal Hymenolepis nana.Tinidazole in a dose of 42 mg/kg administered by gastric gavage daily for consecutive 7 days was the optimal dosage for eradication of in-testinal Tritrichomonas muris infection.Conclusions Three types of parasites are detected in Meriones meridianus in our laboratory, i.e.surface infection with Myobia musculi, and intestinal infection with Tritrichomonas muris and Hymenolepis nana.Tetramethrin/permethrin, praziquantel and tinidazole can be used to effectively eradicate these three types of para-sites, respectively.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of dosing transdermal fentanyl patch by patient-controlled intravenous anal-gesia (PCIA) with fentanyl to treat opioid-naive patients suffering from cancer-related pain. Methods:In this open non-controlled trial, 30 patients with moderate to severe cancer pain were enrolled in the study. Titration conditions, pain score (NRS), and pain of life im-pact scores were assessed and recorded during four periods of treatment, as follows:before fentanyl-PCIA;during fentanyl-PCIA treat-ment;during Duragesic with fentanyl-PCIA treatment;and during Duragesic treatment. Adverse reactions were assessed and recorded during the two periods of treatment (the period before fentanyl-PCIA and the period after fentanyl-PCIA). Results:A total of 20 cases of titration were a success, whereas 10 cases failed. The general pain score, the most serious pain score, activity pain score, resting pain score, and the pain of life impact scores were all significantly reduced during fentanyl-PCIA treatment, during Duragesic with fen-tanyl-PCIA treatment, and during Duragesic treatment compared with the period before fentanyl-PCIA treatment (P<0.05). Nausea was the only adverse reaction that occurred during treatment. Obvious muscle rigidity, loss of consciousness, cough, respiratory depres-sion, and bradycardia were not observed. Conclusion:Dose titration of transdermal fentanyl patch with fentanyl administrated by PCIA for opioid-naive patients provides an effective and convenient method for pain relief treatment.
