Objective To investigate the effect of hand twelve Jing-Well points bloodletting on blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability in the early stage of focal cerebral ischemic injury in rats with permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO). Method Male Wister rats were randomized into sham operation, model and bloodletting groups. A model of middle cerebral artery occlusion was made by Longa's method. 2%Evans blue (EB) was injected into the caudal vein at three time points:5, 24 and 72 hrs after model making. EB exudation amount was assessed by measurement of EB absorbance in brain tissue to observe BBB permeability. Result Cerebral EB exudation amount was significantly higher in the model group of rats than in the sham operation group (P<0.01) and significantly lower in the bloodletting group than in the model group (P<0.01). Conclusion Hand twelve Jing-Well points bloodletting can reduce blood-brain barrier permeability in pMCAO rats. Its effect is highly significant at 24 and 72 hrs after ischemia.

Objective To observe the subarachnoid space the epidural space joint block labor analgesia (CSEA) changes of T lymphocyte subsets.Methods 100 cases of full-term mothers were randomly divided into two groups,analgesia group and the control group.The analgesic group row CSEA childbirth analgesia.Two groups of maternal cervix large 2 to 3cm (T1),when the baby was delivered (T2),24h (T3),blood was colleoted after childbirth,detected by radioimmunoassay of cortisol.Flow cytometry assay was wsed to test T lymphocyte subsets CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+,And the birth process,Apgar score,Labor pain visual analogue score (VAS) were recoroded.Results (1) Active phase of the first stage of childbirth analgesia group was significantly shorter than the control group (t =2.182,P < 0.05).The second and third stage of Childbirth and neonatal Apgar score difference between the two groups was not statistically significant.(2)Serum cortisol concentration at T2 analgesia group was significantly lower that of than the control group (P < 0.05).(3) The two groups in maternal blood of CD3+,CD4+,CD4+ / CD8+ were reduced to varying degrees,T3 was reduced significantly (P < 0.05),Analgesia group was significantly lower than that of the control group (all P < 0.05).Conclusion CSEA analgesia in Childbirth can shorten the first stage of Childbirth active period,has no significant effect on the Apgar score,can alleviate the pain and stress reactions such as the suppression of the maternal immune function.

Objective To investigate the calcium mechanism involved in the A? 25-35-induced neurotoxicity.Methods PC12 cells viability was detected by using MTT assay. Relative change of intracellular calcium concentration was measured by laser confocal microscope.Results MTT assay showed that the cell viability of the three groups (10 ?mol/L A? 25-35?10 ?mol/L A? 25-35+5 ?mol/L nifedipine?10 ?mol/L A? 25-35+10 ?mol/L nifedipine) was decreased by 34.5%, 25.1% and 11.0%,as compared with the control group. 10 ?mol/L nifedipine could protect PC12 cells from A? 25-35-induced damage. A? 25-35 of different concentration (0.1 ?mol/L, 1 ?mol/L, 10 ?mol/L, 20 ?mol/L and 30 ?mol/L) resulted in the elevation of intracellular calcium (about 6.38%, 6.42%, 62.2%, 69.3% and 107.5%) with a dose-dependent manner. Potassium (5 mmol/L, 15 mmol/L and 30 mmol/L) could increase the intracellular calcium after one minute pretreatment of different concentration A? 25-35. Both above mentioned actions were sensitive to the medium calcium and were antagonized by nifedipine, a L-voltage-gated calcium channel antagonist.Conclusion Soluble A? 25-35 may damage the neuronal calcium homeostasis in early stage and make neurons more vulnerable to physiological or pathological stimuli.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of preoperative and postoperative intravesical instillation of pirarubicin for the prevention of postoperative recurrence of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Methods From September 2012 to March 2014, 120 patients who were diagnosed as NMIBC and accepted trans-urethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-Bt) were collected and randomly divided into two groups, including treatment group (60 cases) and control group (60 cases). 30 minutes before the operation, instillation of pirarubicin (40 mg) was performed in the treatment group, then pirarubicin perfusion was given within 24 h after operation, once a week for 8 weeks, and once a month for 10 months after operation. In control group, instillation of pirarubicin (40 mg) was given within 24 h after operation, and other treatments were the same as the treatment group. The differences of lesion detection probability, the 2-year recurrent rate and the adverse reaction rate were compared between the two groups. Results The lesion detection rates were 42.70 % (38/89) and 1.85 % (2/108) in the treatment group and control group, respectively (χ2=50.303, P<0.05). 119 patients were follow-up for 24 months. The 2-year recurrence rates were 8.47%(5/59), 21.67% (13/60) in treatment group and control group respectively (χ2= 4.033, P< 0.05). The adverse reactions mainly included hematuria (3 cases in treatment group, 3 cases in control group), urinary tract irritation (3 cases in treatment group, 2 cases in control group) and urethral stricture (1 case in treatment group, 1 case in control group). The difference of the adverse reaction incidence between the two groups was not significant statistically [11.86 % (7/59) vs. 10.00 (6/60), χ 2 = 0.106, P > 0.05]. Conclusions The preoperational intravesical instillation of pirarubicin can fix and diagnose malignant lesions in the bladder without adverse reactions, which will improve the rate of tumor resection and prevent postoperative recurrence of tumors.

Objective To pool the data of studies about bosentan therapy in pulmonary hypertension (PAH) and evaluate the efficacy and safety of bosentan therapy. Methods A search was performed in PubMed (from 01/01/1968 to 01/05/2006), Embase (from 01/01/1980 to 01/05/2006) and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) (from 01/ 01/ 1978 to 01/ 05/ 2006) to identify relevant articles. Randomized-Controlled Trials (RCT) about the efficacy and safety of bosentan therapy in PAH patients were included to evaluate the short-term and long-term efficacy and safety of bosentan therapy in a method of Meta-analysis. Results (1)Two RCT studies including 243 PAH patients were chosen to evaluate the short-term efficacy and safety of bosentan therapy. Compared with placebo treatment, bosentan therapy could improve exercise capacity of PAH patients:① Distance covered in a 6-minute walk test increased 47.71 meters (95% CI:26.09 to 69.33, P
