BACKGROUND:The low output of seed cells and long cycle of traditional ceils culture methods in tendon animal models(rabbits and chicken) restrict the researches of tendon tissue engineering study.OBJECTIVE:To establish an ideal culture protocol of tail tendon in SD rats,to get more seed cells within less time for subsequent engineered tendon construction research.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Controlled observation was performed in the National Key Laboratory of Biotherapy,Department of Stem Cells and Tissue Engineering,Sichuan University between February and November in 2006.MATERIALS:Rat tail tendon cells were harvested from 2 SD rats,aged 7-10 days;human prepuce fibroblasts were offered by National Key Laboratory of Biotherapy,Department of Stem Cells and Tissue Engineering,Sichuan University.METHODS:Tail tendon of SD rats was draw off and cut into pieces,which were then cultured in 10% fetal bovine serum+DFculture medium for getting primary tendoncyte by using suspension tissue culture method. The third generation cells were processed into immuocytochemistry stain with collagen type Ⅰ and Ⅲ,while human prepuce fibroblasts served as controls.Absorbance of stain result was measured by image-pro plus 5.02 for statistical analysis.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Immuocytochemistry stain and absorbance measurement of SD rat tail tendon cells.RESULTS:The second generation of SD rat tail tendon cells were positive for type Ⅰ collagen stain,and negative for type Ⅲ collagen stain;human fibroblast were positive for both Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen. In the rat tail tendon cells and human flbroblasts,the absorbance value of type Ⅰ collagen expression was dramatically higher than of type Ⅲ collagen(P＜0.05). There was no significant differences addressing the absorbance of type Ⅲ collagen expression between type Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen of SD rat tail tendon cells and blank control group (P＞0.05).CONCLUSION:Cells cultured from SD rat tail tendon have biological characteristic of tendon cells. Tissue piece suspensionculture can obtain a quantity of primary or subcuitured cells of rat tail tendon within a short time.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Xiao'er Zhixie Paste (XZP) by using the young rat model of chronic diarrhea,and to explore its mechanism.Methods Chronic diarrhea model in young rats was induced by ig senna.Rats were ig with Montmorillonite powder of 1.62 g/kg,XZP of low,medium,and high dose (2.03,4.05,and 8.10 g/kg) for treatment.Loose stools rate,loose stool grade and diarrhea index were determined 1 and 3 d after treatment respectively.The water content of small intestine was measured and blood was collected for testing serum succinate dehydrogenase (SDH),amylase,D-xylose by colorimetric determination,testing serum D-lactic acid,IL-1 β,and TNF-α by Elisa after administration.Results The rate of loose stools in XZP 4.05 and 8.10 g/kg dose group,and diarrhea index in 8.10 g/kg dose group significantly reduced after the first treatment.The loose stools rate of XZP 2.03,4.05,and 8.10 g/kg dose group,diarrhea index,serum D-lactic acid level in 4.05,8.10 g/kg group significantly reduced,and serum D-xylose level in 8.10 g/kg dose group significantly increased 3 d after treatment.However,XZP had no significant effect on SDH,amylase activity and IL-1β,TNF-α levels.Conclusion XZP has obvious therapeutic effect on chronic diarrhea in young rats,the mechanism is to increase improve the absorptive function and permeability of intestinal tract.

To obtain the caries experience and, plaque accumulation severity and pit and fissure morphology in first permanent molars in 7-8 children in Wuhan, as a reasonable prediction of caries risk and preventive attention in the future, a convenient sample of five primary schools in the vicinity of the Wuhan University School and Hospital of Stomatology was drawn. Two calibrated examiners orally examined all present grade 2 children in the classroom, using standard caries plaque and tooth morphology criteria. Dental caries was scored at enamel (D(2)) and dentine (D(3)) for tooth and surface level. Independent variables were age, gender and school. Data analysis used analysis of variance and t-test. The sample comprised 1 043 7- and 8-year-olds. The prevalence of dental caries in permanent dentition was 8.7% and in primary dentition, 68.7%. Mean Decayed, Missing, Filled Teeth/S (DMFT/S) scores were 0.11 and 0.14, respectively. Mean dmft/s scores were 2.8 and 5.0. The d-component constituted 75% of the d(3)mft index, while enamel carious lesions constituted 36% of the total number of carious lesions (d(2,3)-component). Prevalence of medium and deep pits and fissures was 84.6%. Prevalence of medium and severe plaque accumulation was 67.4%. Prevalence of dental caries in the deciduous and permanent dentitions of 7- to 8-year-old children was high. Deep pits and fissures in high caries risk children should be sealed.

OBJECTIVETo study the current status and risk factors of spontaneous abortion of women at reproductive age in rural areas of Shaanxi province.

METHODSPregnant women who lived in Changwu and Bin counties of Shaanxi province were interviewed on their former reproductive history and being followed on the outcomes of pregnancy from 2002 to 2005.

RESULTSThere were 5844 pregnant women under study with a total number of 9638 pregnancies including 1153 spontaneous abortive episodes. Among the pregnant women in rural areas of Shaanxi province, the ratio between spontaneous abortion and pregnancies was 12.0% and the spontaneous abortion rate(SAR) was 13.6%. Ratio between the number of women who had experienced spontaneous abortion and the total number of women under survey was 16.4 %. The risks of having spontaneous abortion would increase among women who were aged > or =30 years and those with more than 3 pregnancies.

CONCLUSIONTo reduce the incidence of spontaneous abortion among rural area women, the approaches should include: strengthening the family planning management, reducing of the frequency of pregnancy, extending the pregnancy interval and avoiding advanced ageing pregnancies.

To enhance the quality and efficiency of ozagrel by investigating the differences between the ozagrel polymorphs in bioavailability. Solid ozagrel in different polymorph forms were orally administered to SD rats. An HPLC method was established to determinate plasma level of ozagrel. The bioavailabilities of two polymorph forms were calculated and compared. The pharmacokinetic parameters of ozagrel, were as follows: Cmax was 32.72 ± 17.04 and 34.01 ± 19.13 mg · L(-1), respectively; AUC0-t was 61.14 ± 14.76 and 85.56 ± 18.08 mg · L(-1) · h, respectively; t½ was 1.53 ± 0.51 and 4.73 ± 3.00 h, respectively. There was no significant difference in pharmacokinetic parameters between form I and II polymorphs of ozagrel while the t½ of form II is longer, which indicates that the use of form II polymorph as pharmaceutical product may prolong the effective action time in clinics. This would help the polymorph quality control in drug production.

Objective: To compare the efficacy of different treatment protocols in treating transient synovitis of the hip (TSH) in children and to optimize the clinical treatment strategy for this condition. Methods: Ninety kids with TSH were divided into a control group, a chiropractic group and a chiropractic plus foot bath group using the random number table method, with 30 cases in each group. The control group was treated with conventional traction; the chiropractic group was given chiropractic treatment based on the control group; the chiropractic plus foot bath group was given Chinese medicine foot bath based on the chiropractic group. Traction and foot bath were conducted once daily while chiropractic was done once every other day, all with 14 d as a treatment course for a total of two courses. Changes in the visual analog scale (VAS) score and range of motion (ROM) of the hip joint in the three groups were observed, and the efficacy was compared. Results: The total effective rate was 93.3％ in the chiropractic plus foot bath group, versus 76.7％ in the chiropractic group and 66.7％ in the control group, and the total effective rate was notably higher in the chiropractic plus foot bath group than in the other two groups (both P<0.05). Respectively after the first and second treatment course, the VAS score decreased significantly in each of the three groups compared with that before treatment (all P<0.01), and the ROM of the hip joint in flexion increased significantly (all P<0.01). After two treatment courses, the VAS score was lower in the chiropractic plus foot bath group than in the other two groups (both P<0.05), and its ROM of the hip joint in flexion was larger than that in the other two groups (both P<0.05). Conclusion: Based on traction, chiropractic plus Chinese medicine foot bath can effectively reduce pain and improve motor function of the hip joint in treating TSH.
