Objective To study the effect of Coxsackie virus B3 (CVB3) infection on islet cells in vitro, and to explore the mechanism of islet cells caused by CVB3. Methods Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells( BMSCs) were separated from the bone marrow and cultured. Then they were induced to differentiate into islet-like cells using nicotinamide and mercaptoethanol. Differentiated cells were detected by morphology , special staining and RT-PCR. Observe CVB3 infection on islet cells under inverse microscope and detect the specific gene fragment by RT-PCR. Results BMSCs showed half suspended shape and gathered to form a cluster after induction. Cells became red brown by dithizone specific staining. RT-PCR also proved the existence of mRNA expressing insulin. Infected islet cells appeared typical pathological changes like shrinks, refraction decreases. RT-PCR detected the desired specific gene fragment of 299 bp in infected islet cells. Conclusion CVB3 can directly injury islet cells, and damage the function of islet cells of secreting insulin.

OBJECTIVE: The status on the nomenclature and translation for the trivial name of natural compounds was reviewed in this paper, which could provide a reference to the standardization and normalization for the name of natural compounds. METHODS: Base on sorting out the relevant literature in this field, six nomenclatures and four translation principles, as well as fourteen naming methods and seven translation rules were put forward. The above-mentioned principles and methods were illustrated by analyzing and comparing the Chinese names of 128 compounds from natural products. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The Chinese names for the listed 128 natural compounds have been divided into three categories according to the standardization. (1) Official name: canonical name placed in the normotopia of the name; (2) Synonymy placed in the parentheses following the canonical name, which is not recommend to use; (3) False name labeled with 'false name' in order to expose the fallacy for putting an end to the circulation of erroneous reports. For example:acteoside (verbascoside and kusaginin), acteoside (Yangdignxianggan in Chinese) is the official name, the verbascoside and kusaginin. are synonymy (maoruihuagan and chouwutongning in Chinese) or false names [Maijiaozaogan (false name) and Leiye-shengmagan (false name) in Chinese].

Objective To investigate the association between prodromal headache and the propensity of rebleeding after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.Method Prodromal headache was defined as a sudden attack of severe headache lasting at least one hour with or without accompanying symptoms,not leading to a diagnosis of SAH 4 weeks before the confirmation of subarachnoid hemorrhage.Two hundred and nine patients with aneurymal subarachnoid hemorrhage were enrolled in this research.Age,gender,Hunt-Hess grade,D-dimer, (FBG),site and number of aneurysms and prodromal headache were recorded.Patients were divided into rebleeding group and non-rebleeding group.Comparing the above survey components between two groups was carried out by using case control study method.Age,aneurysm number,D-dimer and fibrinogen of the two groups were analyzed by t test.Prodromal headache,gender,site of aneurysms were analyzed by chi square test.Hunt- Hess grade was analyzed by rank test.Results Twenty-two(10.5%)patients had rebleeding.In the rebleeding group,10 patients(45.5%)had prodromal headache,while in the non-rebleeding group(n=187),21 patients (11.2%)had prodromal headache.Patients with prodromal headache had greater propensity of rebleeding compared with those without prodromal headache(P

Objective To evaluate the biological safety of 125I-filled carbon nanotubes covered with metallic esophageal stent with regard to the normal esophagus before clinical application.Methods 125I-filled carbon nanotubes covered with metallic esophageal stent was prepared.Eighteen of New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into three groups with 6 rabbits in each group.Three groups of stents,non-radioactive,low radio-activity ( 3.7 - 5.6 MBq),and high activity ( 11.1 - 13.0 MBq ) were placed in the midpiece of esophagus of rabbits.Esophagus opacification and three-diamensions DSA were performed at 0.5 h,7,14 and 30 d after insertion of the stents,respectively.The rabbits were killed at 30d after insertion of the stents,and histologic examinations of the esophageal walls were performed.Results In non-radioactive and low activity groups,1 of 6 rabbits died of wound infection at 1 and 3 d after surgery due to pulmonary infection,respectively.All specimens were obtained from 16 rabbits.Microscopically,in all rabbits of low activity and high activity groups,there were membrana mucosa necrotic and swell and breakage of the muscle fiber in esophageal submucosa and muscularis,submucosal inflammation,which were more severe in high activity group.In low activity group,one esophagus ectal membrane was involved,however,esophageal perforation did not develop.In high activity group,3 of 6rabbits esophageal perforation had developed,in which one esophagus mediastinum fistula developed,without inflammation.In non-radioactive group,it was almost normal in mucosa layer,a small amount of inflammatory cells were found in submucosal layer,and part of muscle fibers was fractured and no pathological changes of necrosis was found.Conclusions Radioactive 125I carbon nanotubes covered metallic stent with low activity(3.7 -5.6 MBq) can be used as intraluminal palliative brachytherapy,which is safe and effective.

Objective To analyze the epidemiologic features of visceral leishmaniasis in different age groups in China from 2005 to 2012,and to provide a scientific basis for prevention and treatment of the disease.Methods The visceral leishmaniasis cases were obtained from China disease epidemic monitoring information system from 2005 to 2012.All the cases were divided into subgroups by demographic characteristics:infant (＜1 year old),childcare (≥1 and ＜4 years old),child (≥4 and ＜15 years old),adult (≥15 and ＜65 years old) and senior adult (above 65 years old).The epidemiologic features,such as gender,season of disease onset and area distribution of visceral leishmaniasis were analyzed.Results The total reported visceral leishmaniasis from 2005 to 2012 were 2 979,among which cases in infant,childcare,child,adult and senior adult were 24.9％,21.7％,20.0％,32.4％ and 1.0％,respectively.Infant cases were most reported in April; childcare cases in December which began to increase since September; child cases in October and adult and senior adult in March.The reported cases were mainly from Xinjiang,Gansu and Sichuan areas.However,age characteristics differed among regions,which were mainly infants,both childcare and children,and adults,respectively in this three areas.The duration from onset to diagnosis was shortest in infant group (11 d) and longer in adult group (15 d).Conclusions The number of visceral leishmaniasis cases in different age groups peaks in different months.Regional distribution is not even.Cases are most concentrated in Xinjiang,Gansu and Sichuan areas.Infants predominate in Xinjiang,childcare and children in Gansu and adults in Sichuan.

Objective To investigate the correlation between pathogens and spectrum of disease in infants with human cytomegalovirus(HCMV) active infection.Methods A total of 378 cases of HCMV infection diagnosed by the identification of HCMV IgM or PP65 antigen of HCMV.HCMV gB genotyping was carried out by nested PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism(RFLP) in 107 cases.The results of pathogen,spectrum of disease and clinic feature were analyzed.Results In all 378 infant patients with HCMV,27.78% were systemic infection and 72.22% involved just single organ.Hepatitis,HCMV inclusion disease,thrombocytopenic purpura,pneumonia were pre- dominant with 33.07%,27.78%,13.49%,6.35% respectively.The rate of HCMV inclusion dis ease in infants younger than 2 weeks was higher than in those aged from 3 12 weeks(P ~ 0.05) and children older than 12 weeks(P＜0.01).Infants with higher rate of PP65 antigen positive cells were apt to systemic infection than those with lower rate of PP65 positive cells(P＜0.01).Infants,who were positive by detections of all three methods,were apt to systemic infection than others(P＜0.01). Moreover,infants positive of IgM and PP65 antigen were apt to systemic infection than those just positive by one of the two methods(P＜0.01).The result of gB genotype analysis in 107 cases showed 53 cases of gBⅠ,20 of gBⅡ.18 of gBⅢ.7 of gBⅠ+gBⅡ,5 of gBⅠ+gBⅢand 4 of gBⅡ+gBⅢ,and gBⅣwas not found.Conclusion HCMV could infect multiple organs and have some different clinic features.Combination of different methods can increase the sensitivity to detect the pathogen.The gBⅠgenotype is most prevalent in these infants.

Objective To evaluate the value of minimally invasive technique in treatment of severe traumatic intracranial hematoma at emergency department.Method From January 1995 to December 2005,126 patients were treated by using the minimally invasive technique in Affiliated Chaoyang hospital once patients were diagnosedas severe traumatic cerebral hernia resulted from intracranial hematoma and also those whose clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.In the emergency department,the per-operative plan was done according to the CT imaging,including the sute of burr hole on the skull,the direction and depth of carmulation,and the drainage cannula was put into the hematoma cavity for external drainage under local anesthesia.Results The successful rate of puncture was 100%.The patients's dukated oyouk contracted immediately after drainage.There are 79/ 95 patients(83.1%)had single pupil dilated and 17/31(54.8%)patients had bilateral pupils dilated.The immediately clinical effective was 76.2%.According to Glasgow outcome scale,43 of 126 patients had good recovery,26 had moderate deficits and 18 had severe sequelae,16 patients were in vegetative state,18 died. Conclusions Clinical prospective study proves that minimally invasive technique can ameliorate the cerebral hernia,prolong the operative therapie window time.

Objective To evaluate the arc renal parenchyma incision of pelvis within renal sinus and renal posterior lib for the removal of complex staghorn renal calculi.Methods Arc renal parenchyma incision of pelvis within renal sinus and renal posterior lib was performed to remove stones in 86 cases (97 sides) with complex staghorn renal calculi.Among the 86 cases,42 had stones on the right side;33,on the left side;11,on bilateral sides.Seventeen cases had concomitantly calculi in the ureter,and 54 had calculi in upper and mid calyx or multiple renal calculi.As for comorbidity,11 cases had hypertensions;4,diabetes; and 5,hepatitis B.Twenty-five cases had renal insufficiency,with BUN of 12.3 -76.0mmol/L and Cr of 231 -1721?mol/L.The procedure was performed as follows:the kidney was dissected free and the pelvis within renal sinus was isolated.Two rows of bottom style sutures were made on the renal parenchyma with 2-0 plain catgut along mid-lower 1/3 of the dorsal surface of kidney free of vessels from the renal posterior lib to the plane of lower major calyx.The renal parenchyma was opened.Then,the incision was developed from the plane of lower through the middle major calyx to the plane of upper major calyx.The renal parenchyma and mid-low calyx along the incision were opened,suturing while incising,so that all the stones could be easily removed with hook.Results The calculi were completely removed in all 86 cases (97 sides).The opera- tive time was 105-187min ( mean,129min).The intraoperative blood loss was 120-460 ml ( mean,220 ml).Forty-three cases needed intraoperative blood transfusion of 120 -200 ml (mean,140 ml).One month after operation,KUB+IVU and ultrasonic findings were normal with improved hydronephrosis,no intrarenal stricture and no residual calculi.Conclusions This procedure has the advantages of less bleeding,slight impairment of renal function,simple handling,clear operative field,high clearance rate,therefore is indica- ted for the removal of complex staghorn calculi.
