In this paper, we studied the kinetics of nitochondrial lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and solubilized mitochondrial LDH in the rat liver. The apparent Km values of mitochondrial LDH and solubilized mitochondrial LDH for substrate pyruvate were 50.0 ?mol/L and 33.8 ?mol/L, and those for NADH were 35.3?mol/L and 21.4 ?mol/L, respectively. The apparent Km values of mitochondrial LDH were greater than those of solubilized nitochondrial LDH. The mitochondrial LDH in the rat liver was mainly LDH-5, which could be solubilized by 0.15 mol/L NaQ solution.

In this paper, the effect of asolectin liposome on the activity of rabbit skeletal muscle lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is reported. The results suggested that asolectin liposome could inhibit LDH activity, KC1 could restore the enzyme activity, and NAD+ and NADH could protect the enzyme from being inhibited by asolectin liposome.

Cytokine storm plays an important role in the pathogenesis of liver failure.It is closely related to hepatocyte necrosis in the clini-cal course and the prognosis of this disease.With Kupffer cells as a clue,it is elucidated that related cells and cytokines influence each other and jointly function in the development and progression of liver failure,leading to serious liver tissue damage and necrosis.Cytokine -based research can help improve early diagnosis,disease assessment,and individualized treatment for liver failure.

Objective In order to overcome the problems that bone rongeur and Kirschner forcep's less function and easy damage, trivial and inefficient, bulky volume, bone and needle broken edge is not neat,needle tail easy spatter wounding and other defects, integrated"U"shaped cutting edge rongeurs of pruning finger-toe and bending-truncating pin is desigened. Methods Pruning-truncating rongeurs set the trimming, bending and shearing,straight and twisting, loading and unloading, filing and stripping, string devices, aintenance functions and other functions in one, compare with bone rongeurs in clinical application. Results Pruning-truncating rongeurs are molding once, manipulation convenient, light and safe, anti damage and maintenance free, cost-effective. Conclusion Pruning-truncating rongeurs are highly integrated and portable anti-lost, preparation instrument swift, man-machine coordination, sharp instrument injury prevention, to improve the operation efficiency.

Surface electromyogram (sEMG) may have low signal to noise ratios. An adaptive wavelet thresholding technique was developed in this study to remove noise contamination from sEMG signals. Compared with convention- al wavelet thresholding methods, the adaptive approach can adjust thresholds based on different signal to noise ratios of the processed signal, thus effectively removing noise contamination and reducing distortion of the EMG signal. The advantage of the developed adaptive thresholding method was demonstrated using simulated and experimental sEMG recordings.

How to remove the well fixed cement or cementless prosthesis and get a completely distal cement removal in the rTHR are critical to the outcome of revision. Because of higher rate of union, excellent intraoperative exposure, and adjustment of abductor tension, ETO has been widely applied to rTHR and complicated primary THR by foreign scholars. Furthermore, this technology has wide indications, very few contraindications, high cure rates,and low complications rate. ETO turns out to be a safe and effective revision technology. In the article, the indication, contraindication, complications and advantages of this technique were reviewed.

Objective To discuss the influence of different ways of low-dose corticosteroids infusion on hemodynamics, changes in blood glucose level and prognosis in patients with refractory septic shock. Methods A prospective single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted. Refractory septic shock patients admitted to the Department of Critical Care Medicine of Jiangxi Provincial People's Hospital from April 1st, 2013 to October 31st, 2014 were enrolled for the study. The patients were divided into control group and research group by random number table. Besides conventional treatment for septic shock, patients in control group were given 200 mg/d hydrocortisone intravenous infusion lasting for 2 hours, while those of research group were given 8.33 mg/h hydrocortisone per hour with an intravenous pump. Treatment lasted for 5 continuous days for both groups. The changes in heart rate ( HR ), mean arterial pressure ( MAP ), central venous pressure ( CVP ) and arterial blood lactic acid in both groups were observed at the time of enroldment and 6 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, and 5 days after the treatment. With a dynamic blood glucose monitor, mean blood glucose ( MBG ) level, largest amplitude of glycemic excursions ( LAGE ), glucose variability ( GV ), and the ratio of hyperglycaemia time were recorded. The duration of shock, length of intensive care unit ( ICU ) stay, total length of hospital stay, and 28-day mortality of both groups were recorded. Results Seventy-nine septic shock patients were assigned to the treatment, with 41 in control group, and 38 in research group. Compared with control group, 6-hour MAP in research group was obviously lowered [ mmHg ( 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa ):66.31±4.38 vs. 68.58±4.86, t=1.062, P=0.033 ], but there were no significant differences in HR, MAP, CVP, lactic acid clearance and norepinephrine ( NE ) utilization rates at other time points between two groups. No significant difference in MBG was found between research group and control group ( mmol/L:8.69±2.14 vs. 9.95±3.87, t=1.771, P=0.080 ), but LAGE, GV, the ratio of hyperglycemia time in research group were significantly lower than those of the control group [ LAGE ( mmol/L ): 17.18±8.97 vs. 22.71±11.80, t = 2.331, P = 0.022; GV ( mmol/L ): 2.57±1.05 vs. 3.16±1.37, t=2.136, P=0.036;the ratio of hyperglycemia time:( 43.1±11.7 )%vs. ( 49.4±15.3 )%, t=2.044, P=0.044 ]. There was no statistical difference in the following features between research group and control group, such as the duration of shock ( days:3.47±0.98 vs. 3.61±1.07, t=0.605, P=0.547 ), length of ICU stay ( days:8.74±3.12 vs. 9.97±3.37, t = 1.543, P = 0.120 ), total length of hospital stay ( days: 18.34±9.27 vs. 19.58±9.83, t = 0.576, P = 0.566 ) and 28-day mortality rate ( 23.68%vs. 26.83%,χ2=0.103, P=0.748 ). Conclusions Compared with slow intravenous infusion, a continuous intravenous supplementation of small amount of hydrocortisone to patients with refractory septic shock could stabilize blood glucose levels and maintain metabolic balance efficiently. However, in both groups there was no significant difference in the efficiency in stabilizing hemodynamics, shortening shock duration, reducing ICU or hospital days and decreasing 28-day mortality.
