Licorice seedlings were taken as experimental materials, an experiment was conducted to study the effects of exogenous sucrose on growth and active ingredient content of licorice seedlings under NaCl stress conditions. The results of this study showed that under salt stress conditions, after adding a certain concentration of exogenous sucrose, the licorice seedlings day of relative growth rate was increasing, and this stress can be a significant weakening effect, indicating that exogenous sucrose salt stress-relieving effect. The total flavonoids and phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) activity were significantly increased, the exogenous sucrose can mitigated the seedling roots under salt stress, the licorice flavonoid content in the enhanced growth was largely due to the activity of PAL an increased, when the concentration of exogenous sucrose wae 10 mmol x L(-1), PAL activity reaching a maximum, when the concentration of exogenous sucrose was 15 mmol x L(-1), PAL activity turned into a downward trend, the results indicating that this mitigation has concentration effect. After applying different concentrations of exogenous sugar, the contents of liquiritin changes with the change of flavonoids content was similar. After applying different concentrations of exogenous sucrose, the content of licorice acid under salt stress was higher than the levels were not reached during salt stress, the impact of exogenous sucrose concentration gradient of licorice acid accumulation was not obvious.

Objective To analyze the alterative characteristics of the extravascular lung water (EVLW ) in the patients with septic shock and clarify its value on the prognosis of these patients.Methods By the methods of retrospective analysis,according to the ultimate survival,21 patients with septic shock were divided into survivor group (10 cases) and non-survivor group (11 cases).The clinical features of the patients were observed and hemodynamic monitoring was made with PiCCO monitor.The EVLW was measured and the relationship between the EVLW and the prognosis of patients was analyzed.Results On the first,second and third day,EVLW was (12.7 ±1.8),(11.3 ±1.3),(10.1 ±1.3) ml/kg in survivor group,and (14.4 ± 1.0),(14.6 ± 1.4),(14.6 ±1.3) ml/kg in non-survivor group respectively,and there were statistical differences between two groups (P <0.05).However,on the second day after the intensive therapy,EVLW in survivor group dropped significantly(P＜0.05),but the non-survivor group only declined slightly,and compared with the result of the first day,there was no obvious difference (P >0.05).Conclusions The EVLW in the patients with septic shock increases significantly.The dynamic changes of the EVLW may be one of the factors for predicting the prognosis of patients with septic shock.

Objective　To investigate the effect of T-2 toxin on apoptosis of chondrocytes.Methods　Chondrocytes which were obtained from aborted fetal were cultured in vitro.Four days later,these chondrocytes were exposed to T-2 toxin in different concetrations for 16 hours.According to the concentratio ns,five experimental groups were divided:0,5,10,20,40 μg/L.Then TUNEL staining and Flowcytometry were used to detect the apoptosis of chondrocytes qualitativel y and quantitatively,the effect of T-2 toxin on proliferation of chondrocytes were also observed.Results　After being exposed to T-2 toxin,the body of chondrocytes shrinked obviously and there was a dose-dependent relationship bet ween the toxin concentration and the degree of shrink.The concentration of T-2 toxin changed from 0 μg/L to 10 ng/ml,the number of apoptosis increased.Conclusions　 T-2 toxin can inhibit the proliferation of chondroyte significantly in a dose-depenent manner. T-2 toxin can induce the apoptosis of chondrocyte and the numbers of apoptosis is proportionate to the concentration of T-2 toxin in particular range.

Objective:To utilize MRI and plain films to observe the changes of soft tissue structures in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) after closed reduction, and explore the concentric reduction rate, the "docking" rate and the femoral head necrosis rate after reduction.Methods:Retrospective analysis of unilateral completely dislocated DDH patients with closed reduction and spica casting in our hospital from October 2012 to July 2018. MRI was performed on the day of closed reduction and every 2-3 months after operation. Pelvic plain films were performed before operation and follow-up. The labro-chondral complex (LCC) of the hip was divided into 4 types on MRI images, and the reliability and repeatability of LCC classification were evaluated by intra-class correlation coefficient. Trend chi-square test or Fisher exact probability method was used to analyze the variation of thickening rate of ligamentum teres, transverse ligaments and pulvinar during MRI follow-up, and the difference of cartilaginous acetabular head index was evaluated by analysis of variance of repeated measurements or Mann-Whitney U test. The concentric reduction rate of the femoral head after performing closed reduction, the "docking" rate of the femoral headwhen the cast was changed for the last time were analyzed, and the necrosis rate of the femoral head were followed up for 18 months or more after reduction.Results:A total of 63 DDH patients (63 hips) with closed reduction were included. Intra-class correlation coefficient of LCC classification was 0.84 between observers (95%CI: 0.74-0.91) and 0.94 within observers (95%CI: 0.90-0.97) . Most LCC classifications were type 4 on the day of CR (93.7%, 59/63) , and return to normal (type 1 classifications) at the second follow-up (50.9%, 28/55). ligamentum teres, transverse ligaments and pulvinar were hypertrophic (94.5%-100%) on the day of CR, and decreased to 10.9%-12.7% at the second follow-up, which had statistically differences ( χ2=88.6; χ2=86.4; χ2=97.9, P<0.05). The cartilaginous acetabular head index was 68.1±12.1 on the day of CR, and increased to 84.4±7.0 at the second follow-up, which had statistically difference ( Z=-3.15, P=0.002). 58.7% femoral heads were "docking", 8.6% femoral head had necrosis. Conclusion:The abnormal soft tissue structures in the hip joint mostly recovered gradually after closed reduction, and 60% femoral heads could be docked, the short-term risk of the femoral head necrosis was low.
