Objective To observe the outcome of an absorbable bioactive bone-inducing material for the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH).Methods Thirty rabbits were randomly,evenly divided into three groups,experience group with bioactive bone-inducing material planted into bone collapse,control group 1 with oral ShengMaiJiaoNang and control group 2 with no implantation in the bone necrosis.Results In experiment group,bone necrosis was halted and the collapse was repaired.Meanwhile,cancellous bone and cortical bone were regenerated,necrotic bone was basically healed,and bioactive bone-inducing material was gradually degraded and absorbed.In control group 1,part of the bone marrow vascular was repaired and regenerated,and a little new bone grew,which delayed the process of necrosis.In control group 2,there was no bone tissue regeneration in the bone collapse and further deterioration was observed.Conclusions The bioactive bone-inducing material can not only replace autologous cancellous bone,but also halt the progress of osteonecrosis,which may become an alternative treatment for the stage Ⅱ and early stage of ONFH.

AIM: To explore the effects of sitai tablet on blood pressure, blood lipid,blood sugar and insulin of rats with insulin resistance syndrome(IRS).METHODS: A total of 40 male clean SD rats were divided into normal control group, model group, sitai group and captopril group by randomized block design. The rats were fed with high-fat high sugar diet for 8 weeks to induce IRS. Then, sitai tablets were given to rats with IRS to observe the influence of sitai tablet on blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipid, insulin levels and insulin sensitivity index(ISI) of them.RESULTS: The systolic pressure reduced from ( 158 ± 8), ( 157 ± 7) mm Hg before treatment to (128 ± 4), (110 ± 2)mm Hg after treatment in sitai group and captoril group respectively. There was also significant difference on systolic pressure of between sitai group, captopril group and model group [ ( 165 ± 6) mm Hg] ( t = 11.86 - 28.99, P < 0.01 ). In sitai group, the total cholesterol (TC), triacylycerol (TG)decreased clearly than those in model group( t = 44.27, 9. 14, P < 0.01 ), but high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) increased( t = 703, P < 0. 01 ) . There were increased fasting insulin(FINS) and decreased ISI in model group. There was significant difference on these indes between model group and normal control group( t= 7.14, 9.35, P < 0.01 ) . The insulin resistance was evident so that the model was successfully established. The fasting blood sugar and FINS all reduced when comparing it between sitai group, captopsil group with model group, there was significant difference( t = 11.95, 6.71, P < 0.01). When comparing the fasting blood sugar in captoril group and sitai group, there was also difference( t = 8.33, P < 0.01 ) . The ISI all increased in sitai group and captoril group, there was difference between them and model group (t=9.82,9.35, P <0.01).CONCLUSION: Sitai tablet can remarkably reduce the blood pressure,blood sugar and blood fat, and increase the sensibility of insulin so that it can improve the general effects of IRS.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)includes Crohn’s disease (CD)and ulcerative colitis (UC).The differential diagnosis between CD and UC mainly depends on clinical symptoms,endoscopy,pathological biopsy,laboratory and imaging examinations.In recent years,studies with a variety of IBD-related biomarkers develop rapidly because of its non-invasiveness,simple and easily acceptable.With the development of genome-wide association study (GWAS),great progress has been achieved in studies of gene mutations and susceptibility genes related with CD and UC,which provides new approach for diagnosis of the disease.This article reviewed the advances in studies on serum biomarkers and susceptibility genes in differential diagnosis of IBD.

Objective: To study the efficiency of silencing small ubiquitin-like modifier-1(SUMO-1) induced by siRNA in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line SMMC-7721 and the growth inhibition of SMMC-7721 thereof. Methods: The SUMO-1 siRNA was transfected into SMMC-7721 by means of lipofectamine~(TM) 2000. The silencing efficiency of SUMO-1 was examined by RT-PCR and western blot. The cell growth and cell cycle were examined by MTT and flow cytometry(FCM). The cell apoptosis was detected by DeadEnd~(TM) Colorimetric TUNEL System. Results: The siRNA could significantly silence the expression of SUMO-1 in SMMC-7721.The maximal silencing rate was utmost 73.43% at 48 hours after being transfected SUMO-1 siRNA. MTT assay revealed that the cell line grew more slowly. FCM result showed that the number of G_2 stage cells was increased significantly. But apoptosis cells were not found by TUNNEL assay. Conclusion: SiRNA is a good manner to silence the expression of SUMO-1 in SMMC-7721 in vitro. Owing to the growth inhibition induced by SUMO-1 siRNA, SUMO-1 plays an important role in development of SMMC-7721.

Objective To investigate the change in the function of the motor nerve fibers of the sciatic nerve of rat following injection of different neurolytic drugs. Methods Thirty-five SD rats weighing 350-380 g were randomly divided into 7 groups ( n = 5 each): group C received normal saline; group Ad adriamycin 5 mg/ml;group Aa anhydrous alcohol; group Pg1 8% phenol-glycerol; group Pg2 10% phenol-glycerol; group Pg3 12% phenol-glycerol and group Ci cidomycin 4000 U/ml. 0.2 ml of the different neurolytic drugs was injected at the points where the branches of the sciatic nerve entering semi-membranous and adductor magnus muscles. The action potential and conduction velocity of motor and sensory nerve fibers were measured at 21 d after injection. Results The conduction velocity of sensory nerve fibers was 0 in each group. The conduction velocity and action potential of the motor nerve fibers were significantly decreased in group Ad, Aa, Pg1, Pg2, Pg3 and Ci as compared with group C (the control group). The action potential and the conduction velocity were significantly higher in group Ad than in other neurolytic drug groups. The potential and the conduction velocity were the lowest in group Aa and Pg3.The conduction velocity in group Pg1, Pg2, Ci was comparable. Conclusion 5% adriamycin seems to be a better neurolytic drug with less interference with function of motor never fibers.

Objective To evaluate the predictive performance of diaphragm thickening fraction ( DTF) assessed by ultrasound in the feasibility of weaning from mechanical ventilation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD ) . Methods Forty-three patients with COPD were enrolled for prospective study.All patients were ventilated mechanically for more than 48 hours and were expected to be weaned when they met clinical criteria in the intensive care unit from February 2015 to August 2015.Patients received a spontaneous breathing trial under pressure support for 1 h.At the end of spontaneous breathing trial, the right hemi-diaphragm was visualized in the zone of apposition using a 6-13 MHz linear ultrasound probe. Diaphragm thickness was recorded at end-inspiration (DTei) and end-expiration (DTee), and the DTF was calculated as percentage from the following formula:(DTei -DTee) /DTee.Also the rapid shallow breathing index ( RSBI ) was calculated.Patients meeting weaning criteria were extubated.Weaning successfully was defined as spontaneous breathing for >48 h without any form of ventilation support.Results Twenty-five patients were weaned successfully and failure of weaning was found in 18 patients.A significant differences in DTF ( 39.66 ±13.22 )%vs.( 23.84 ±8.85 )%, P <0.05 and RSBI ( 62.74 ±26.05 ) vs.( 98.89 ± 35.44) , P <0.05 were observed between patients with successful weaning and patients with failure.The sensitivity and specificity of DTF≥30 % for successful weaning were 84% and 83.88 %, respectively.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.872 ( 95 % CI: 0.759-0.985 ) for DTF.By comparison, when RSBI was ≤105, there was a sensitivity of 92 %, and a specificity of 38.89 % for determining successful weaning.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.804 ( 95 %CI: 0.669-0.940) for RSBI. Conclusions This study shows that in a cohort of COPD patients, the assessment of DTF using diaphragm ultrasound may be useful to predict success weaning or failure during spontaneous breathing trial.
