Methods EPS was obtained from 75 out patients with chronic prostatitis,pH and WBC per high power microscopic field being studied.Transabdominal prostatic ultrasonography was performed. Results Mean pH of the EPS was 6.9?0.4.pH of the EPS and the frequency of ultrasound abnomalities were significanly correlated to the leukocyte count in EPS.There was no correlation between age of symptom duration and the pH of EPS, frequency of ultrasound abnormalities or white blood cell counts in EPS. Conclusions In chronic prostatitis,the leukocyte count in EPS was positively correlated with the ultrasound abnomalities and the pH elevation of EPS.There was no correlation between age or symptom duration and pH of the EPS,frequency of ultrasound abnormalities or leukocyte count in the EPS.

A high sensitive and selective imprinted electrochemical sensor based on cobalt nanoparticles/gra-phene modified carbon electrode was prepared by electropolymerization technqiue with p-tert-octylphenol as the template and pyrrole as the functional monomer. The electrochemical behaviors of the imprinted sensor were evaluated with cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The response currents of the imprinted electrochemical sensor exhibited a linear relationship toward the negative logarithm of p-tert-octylphenol concentrations ranged from 1. 0í10-13 mol/L to 1. 0í10-7 mol/L (R2=0. 994) with the detection limit of 3 . 7í10-14 mol/L ( S/N=3 ) . The imprinted electrochemical sensor was respectively applied to the determina-tion of p-tert-octylphenol in rain water, lake water and drink with the recoveries of 92. 4%-102. 0%.

Objective To study the influence of finasteride on the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 α(HIF-1 α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) with prostate cancer (Pca).Methods The patients diagnosed of Pca were selected,and which treated with finasteride for up to six months were finasteride group and untreated with finasteride were control group.The expression of HIF-1 α,VEGF and microvessel density(MVD) was examined.Results The positive expression of HIF-1α,VEGF and MVD in the finasteride group were 55.0％,57.5％,(56.9 ± 13.8),respectively,and were lower than those of the control group [87.5 ％,97.5 ％,(64.2 ± 13.3)] (x2 =10.313,18.122,all P ＜ 0.01 ; t =2.391,P ＜ 0.05).In the pathological grade,advanced grade of the finasteride group was in 15 cases(37.5％),and 10 cases(25.0％) was in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant between the two groups(x2 =1.455,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Long-term treatment with finasteride can reduce expression of HIF-1α and VEGF with Pca,thus inhibit angiogenesis and tumor growth and metastasis.

2 67kPa) after MVR were enrolled in the study Parameters in hemodynamics and oxygenation were measured with Swan Ganz technique , 5min before NO inhalation (T 1), 5,15 and 30min following NO 20ppm inhalation (T 2,T 3,T 4), 15min after stopping NO 20ppm inhalation (T 5), 15min and 5h following NO 6ppm inhalation (T 6,T 7) and 15min before and after weaning from mechanical ventilator (T 8,T 9) respectively Results Compared with those at T 1, at T 2 pulmonary artery pressure, pulmonary vascular resistance, alveolar arterial oxygen difference and intrapulmonary shunting significantly decreased, but arterial oxygen partial pressure, oxygen content and oxygen availability index increased significantly (P0 05) Conclusions The persistently inhaled low dose NO is effective and safe for the pulmonary hypertension induced with heart surgery

To investigate the protective effects of OLA-PENa on experimental hepatic injury in rats and compare it with OLA in the dose-response relationships. METHODS: Biochemical indexes and histopathological examination of hepatic injury in rats caused by toxicant chemicals ［D-galactosamine (D-Galn) and CCl4］ were determined. RESULTS: OLA-PENa obviously inhibited the rising of serum alanine transaminase (ALT) caused by D-Galn and CCl4 and dramatically decreased liver fat storage as well in a dose-dependent manner. Histopathological examination showed that OLA-PENa can evidently alleviate the condition of the degeneration of hepatic cells and that of necrosis. CONCLUSION: The protective effects of OLA-PENa on experimental liver injury in rats, all the mentioned effects, are more powerful than those of OLA with the same dosage.

Objective To investigate expression changes of Tau protein in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and oligodendrocytes (Ols) after stretch injury in rats and explore the relationship of Tau protein with pathological changes after axonal injury. Methods Morphological changes of optic nerves, RGCs and OLs after stretch injury were examined under light microscope in control group, stretch only group, heat stress only group and heat stress pretreatment plus stretch group. The expressions of Tau protein in RGCs and OLs after heat stress and/or stretch injury were observed by using immunohistechemical stai-ning. Results Pathological changes of axons, RGCs and OLs were identified morphologically or quan-titatively after stretch injury to the optic nerves, which was significantly ameliorated through pretreatment with heat stress plus stretch injury. The expressions of Tau protein in RGCs and OLs were increased in stretch only group. There was no significant expression change of Tau protein in heat stress only group. Expression of Tan protein was obviously decreased in heat stress pretreatment plus stretch group. Con-clusions Both neurons and glial cells are involved in pathological process after axonal injury. The ex-pression changes of Tau protein are probably related to delayed axotomy and neuron apoptosis. Heat stress can relieve the impairment of cystoskeleton through decreasing and delaying the expression of Tau protein.

Objective: To study the effects of deguelin on proliferation and apoptosis of human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and on phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt) signaling pathway. Methods: After treatment with 0, 1, 5, 10, 15 and 20 μmol/L of deguelin for 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours, the proliferation inhibition rate of MCF-7 cells was measured by cell counting kit-8 assay. Apoptosis rate of MCF-7 cells was detected with Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate/propidium iodide double staining by flow cytometry and the apoptotic morphology was observed under a transmission electron microscope. After treatment with 0, 1 and 5 μmol/L of deguelin for 6 hours, 5 proteins involved in the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway were examined by Western blot analysis. Results: Deguelin at doses of 5, 10, 15 and 20 μmol/L inhibited the proliferation of MCF-7 cells at 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours. There was a significant difference in each group compared with the control group (P<0.01). The inhibitory effect was more marked with increasing concentration and duration of treatment. There were statistical differences (P<0.05) among 5, 10, 15 and 20 μmol/L groups. However, 1 μmol/L of deguelin had no obvious effects on the proliferation of MCF-7 cells at 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours, showing no significant difference compared with control group (P>0.05). Deguelin at doses of 5, 10, 15 and 20 μmol/L induced apoptosis of MCF-7 cells at 6 hours. There were significant differences (P<0.01) in the early and late apoptosis rate between the treated groups and the control group. The typical apoptotic MCF-7 cells were observed under the transmission electron microscopy. However, 1 μmol/L of deguelin had no apparent effect in inducing apoptosis of MCF-7 cells at 6 hours. After treatment with 5 μmol/L of deguelin for 6 hours the expression of phosphorylated phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) (Ser380), phosphorylated 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1) (Ser241), phosphorylated Akt (Thr308) and phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) (Ser9) proteins were significantly reduced in MCF-7 cells, while there was no significant change in the expression of total Akt protein. However, after treatment with 1 μmol/L of deguelin for 6 hours, there was no apparent change in the expression of these 5 proteins. Conclusion: Deguelin can inhibit the phosphorylation of GSK-3β (Ser9) via inhibition of the phosphorylation of PTEN (Ser380) and PDK1 (Ser241) pathway, thus inducing apoptosis and inhibiting proliferation of MCF-7 cells.

Objective To evaluate free or pedicled perforator flaps for repairing chronic osteemylitis with soft-tissue defect in the distal lower extremity. Methods From May of 2006 to October of 2007, 28 consecutive patients of chronic osteomylitis with soft-tissue defect in the distal lower extremity underwent surgical debridement and reconstruction with free or pedicled perforator flaps. There were 13 free flaps. The free anterolateral thigh flaps were used in 2 cases to repair the soft defects in the front of leg, 3 cases in the front of the malleolus, 2 cases in the dorsum of foot, 2 cases in the heel. The free lateral crural flaps nourished by perone al artery were used in 4 cases to repair the soft defects in the dorsum of foot. There were 15 pedicled flaps. Posterior tibial artery perforator flaps were used in 4 cases to repair the soft defects in the front of leg, and 2 cases in the medial malleolus. Lateral retromalleolar perforator flaps nourished by peroneal artery were used in 6 cases to repair the soft-defects in the heel, 1 case in the lateral malleolus and 1 case in the dorsum of foot, the first dorsal metatarsal artery perforator flap was used to repair the proximal dorsum of hallux. The wound was closed with irrigation-suction in 7 cases and with vancomycin-impregnated gelatin in 8 cases. Results All 27 flaps were successfully survived except insuffcient vein refluence in 1 posterior tibial artery perforator flap, which resulted in a superficial necrosis and healed spontaneously. The follow-up period from 6 months to 2 years revealed that recurrence developed in two diffuse type patients and both were treated once and twice with success, respectively. The others healed without any signs of recurrences. No debulking procedure was necessary in any case. Secondary bone graft was performed in 3 cases. All patients were ambulatory and fully weight-bearing with normal clinical parameters at the time of last review. According to the evaluating criteria for the treatment of foot disease, the mean score was 84.5. Conclusion Free or pedicled perforator flap has been shown to be well vascularised, and it is feasible for the treatment of chronic osteomyelitis with soft-tissue defect in the distal lower extremity.
