The risk factors of traffic crash include drinking/drunk drive, accident proneness, fatigue driving, speeding, and poor vehicle quality. This article introduces the protection, emergency treatment, and basic scientific research of road traffic injury (RTI). As a public health issue, RTI is preventable, and personal factor is a key problem. It is important to establish an accurate and comprehensive RTI database, which may provide necessary information for the epidemiological research and crash prevention. The author also gives some suggestions on road traffic safety development in our country.

Objective To study the efficacy of pelvic reconstruction surgery in the treatment of pelvic organ prolapsey (POP).Methods 18 patients with POP underwent pelvic reconstruction surgery were selected.Clinical parameters during peri-operation were recorded.After 3 months and 6 months,pelvic organ prolapse quantitative examination(POP-Q) and anatomic improvement in these patients were analyzed.Comparisons of pelvic floor distress impact questionnaire short form 7 (PFIQ-7) and quality of sexual life of chinese women questionnaire in these patients before and after surgery were used to evaluate quality of life and quality of sexual life.Results Median operation time was (90.0 ± 13.2) minutes and median blood loss was (30.0 ± 1.2) ml,all the patients were followed.The objective cure rate was 100％.The mean score of post-operative PFIQ-7 were significantly lower than those of pre-operation (P ＜ 0.01),and those of qualify of sexual life of chinese women questionnaire was no significantly difference (P ＞0.05).The rate of mesh crosion was 0,and there was no case of de novo urinary incontinence and de novo dyspareunia.Conclusion Pelvic reconstruction surgery is a safe and efficacious management.It can improve qualify of life remarkably and have no influence on sexual quality of life.

Objective To investigate the effects of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) combined with norepinephrine (NE) on L-type calcium current (LCa-l) in rat ventricular myocytes. Methods Ventricular myocytes were isolated from SD rats (weighing 260-280 g) by retrograde perfusion of the heart via the aorta with an enzyme-containing solution as previously described. Whole-cell patch-clamp recording was made using Axopatch 200B amplifier. The cells were perfused for 1 min with Tyrode solution containing CGRP 1 × 10-7 mol/L (group CGRP) , NE 1 × 10-6 mol/L (group NE), or CGRP 1 × 10-7 mol/L + NE 1 × 10-6 mol/L (group CN) and again washed with Tyrode solution. ICa-L was recorded 1 min before and 1 min after the cells were perfused and 1 min after the cells were washed. I-V curve of ICa-L was made after the cells were perfused with solution containing CGRP or NE alone. Results CGRP significantly inhibited the peak of ICa-L, while NE significantly promoted the peak of ICa-L(P < 0.05) . The peak of ICa-L was significantly decreased 1 min after the cells were perfused in group CGRP,while increased 1 min after the cells were perfused in group NE compared with group CN ( P < 0.05). CGRP made the I-V curve of ICa-L move up-ward, while NE made the I-V curve of ICa-L move down-ward. Conclusion CGRP can weaken the promotion of ICa-L induced by NE in rat ventricular myocytes.

In the recent years,the earthquake occured frequently in the whole world which caused the increased incidence of crush syndrome (CS). The four limbs and torso will be bleeding and swelling when they are prounded and crushed from the heavy objects. The necrosis of muscular tissue causes massive production of toxin which leads to a series of symptoms including hypotension ,kidney dysfunction and so on. The serious acute kidney injury (AKI) will be vital. When CS-AKI ,the ascending velocity of urea nitrogen and K+ levels in the blood is quicker than those of general AKI;many kinds of immune cells are activated to engender a great deal of inflammatory mediators;the blood dynamics is often unstable. Therefore, it is advocated that the blood purification treatment should be carried early to eliminate excessive metabolic produces in vivo,to reduce the cardiovascular complication occurrence, and to avoid the irreversible change of the kidney function.

Objective To investigate the effects of substance P (SP) pretreatment on the expression of β1-adrenoreceptor(β1-R) induced by norepinephrine (NE) in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyecytes.Methods The cardiomyocytes obtained from 1-3 day old SD rats were cultured for 72 h.The experiment was performed in 2 parts.In part 1 the cells were seeded in 15 well plate and randomly divided into 5 groups (n=3 wells each):control group (C1)and 4 NE groups were exposed to NE 10-9, 10-8,10-7,10-6 mol/L respectively (NE1,2,3,4).In part Ⅱ the.cells were seeded in 12 well plate and randomly divided into 4 groups (n=3 wells each): group I control (C2): group II NE 10-7 tool/L; group Ⅲ (SN)was pretreated with SP 10-6 mol/L 30 minbefore NE 10-7 mol/L and group IV (NSN)was treated with NK-1 receptor antagonist (NK-1 tachykinin receptor antagonist,S3144) 30 min before SP pretreatment.After exposure to NE for 3 h the expression of β1-R in the rat cardiomyecytes was detected using flow cytometry.Results In part Ⅰ the expression of β1-R was significantly higher in group NE1-3 than in control group (C1),with the highest expression in group NF3.In part Ⅱ the expression of β1-R was significantly higher in group Ⅱ (NE) than in control group (C2) while lower in group Ⅲ (SN) than in control group Ⅱ.(NE).There was no significant difference in the expression of β1-R between group Ⅰ (C2) and group Ⅲ and Ⅳ (NSN).Conclusion Substance P pretreatment can inhibit the up-regulation of β1-R expression in cultured rat cardiomyocytes induced by norepinephrine through activating NK-1 receptor.

Objective To investigate the effects of morphine and tramadol pre-emptive use on the expressions of substance P mRNA (SPmRNA) and calcitonin gene-related peptide mRNA (CGRPmRNA) in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) following acute myocardial ischemia in the rats. Method Twenty-four adult male SD rats weighing 270 to 300 g were randomly (random number) divided into four groups (n = 6, in each): group Ⅰ(sham operation), group Ⅱ (myocardial ischemia), group Ⅲ (morphine pre-emptive use) and group Ⅳ (tramadol pre-emptive use). The left anterior descending branch of coronary artery was occluded (CAO) for 3 hours in rats of group Ⅱ and Ⅳ.In group Ⅲ morphine 1.25 mg·kg-1 was injected through caudal vein 15 minutes before CAO.In group Ⅳ,tramadol 12.5 mg·kg-1 was daministered via caudal vein 15 minutes before CAO.In 3 hours after myocardial ischemia, the tissue of DRG (T1-5) were taken for detecting the expressions of SPmRNA and CGRPmRNA by using RT-PCR. One-way ANOVA was used for statistical analysis. Results In the tissue of DRG, the expressions of SPmRNA(0.93±0.02) ,α-CGRP mRNA(0.98±0.02) and β-CGRP mRNA(0.83 ± 0.02)were up-regulated in group Ⅱ compared with those in group Ⅰ (0.84±0.04),(0.86±0.01),(0.45±0.03) (P ＜0.05),and decreased markedly in group Ⅲ (0.88 ± 0.03) ,(0.90 ± 0.02), (0.67 ± 0.02) (P ＜ 0.05) and group Ⅳ (0.88±0.04) ,(0.90 ± 0.01),(0.66±0.01) (P ＜ 0.05), but showed no difference between group Ⅲ and Ⅳ (P ＞ 0.05). Conclusions Morphine and tramadol pre-emptive use can significantly inhibit the expressions of SPmRNA and CGRPmRNA in rat's dorsal root ganglia after CAO.

Objective To study the content of urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor(uPAR)in the peripheral blood to investigate its value for the invasion metastasis and prognosis in cervical cancer.Methods The plasma level of suPAR in 30 normal women.94 patients with cervieal cancer was measured by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results The mean level of suPAR was(0.5023±0.1724)ng/ml in plasma of 30 normal women,while that in plasma of 94 cervical cancer patients was (1.0433±0.2736)ng/ml.The plasma suPAR level of cervical cancer patients was increased in comparision with that of normal women (P＜0.01).The suPAR level in the cervieal cancer patients did not show a significant correlation with histological classification,histological grade,style of growth and tumor size(P＞0.05),but was related to clinical stage.lymphnode metastasis and depth of invasion (P＜0.05).Conclusion Plasma suPAR would be a more reliable and convenient indicator in monitoring uPA system,and could be widely used as a new tumor marker in clinic.
