Objective To evaluate the effect of rehabilitation training on rats with spinal cord injuries by Meta-analysis. Methods Ar-ticles were searched from PubMed( ~2013),CNKI(1989~2013), WanFang Data( ~2013),VIP(1989~2013),quality of included article was assessed with Jadad scale,and available data was analyzed with RevMan 5. 0 software. Results 287 related articles were identified,but only 11 eligible articles were included. The Meta-analysis of BBB score indicated that the rehabilitation training groups were better than con-trol groups. The BBB score[weighted mean difference(WMD) =1. 87,95%CI(1. 50,2. 33),Z=10. 02,P<0. 01]. There was significant diffence between two groups. Conclusion Rehabilitation training can improve the recover of hindlimb function.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of different inhalation time on the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of sevoflurane in adult rats.Methods:Two hundred SPF healthy adult Sprague-Dawley rats (half male, half female), aged 8-10 weeks, weighing 200-260 g, were divided into 2 groups using a random number table method: inhalation of sevoflurane for 1 h group and inhalation of sevoflurane for 20 min group, with 100 rats in each group.Each group was subdivided into 10 subgroups with 10 rats in each subgroup, the initial concentration was preset at 1.50%, and the ratio between two successive concentrations r was 1.08.The tail clamping stimulus was applied to evaluate the efficacy of anesthesia in each subgroup, a positive response was defined as a body movement occurred within 1 min after tail clamping stimulus, and the response was defined as negative when no body movement occurred within 1 min after tail clamping.The Bliss method was used to calculate the MAC, EC 95 and 95% confidence interval (CI) of sevoflurane. Results:The MAC and EC 95 (95% CI) of sevoflurane were 2.09% (1.98%-2.20%) and 2.75% (2.56%-3.04%), respectively, in inhalation of sevoflurane for 1 h group, and 2.35% (2.22%-2.49%) and 3.10% (2.87%-3.45%), respectively, in inhalation of sevoflurane for 20 min group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The MAC of sevoflurane in adult rats inhaled sevoflurane for 1 h is decreased than that inhaled for 20 min.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression of metastasis-associated colon cancer 1 (MACC1) protein in colorectal cancer and its clinical significance.
METHODSImmunohistochemistry method was used to determine the expression of MACC1 protein in colorectal cancer and normal colorectal mucosal tissues (>5 cm distance to cancer tissue). Statistic analysis was performed to investigate the association between clinicopathologic features and MACC1 expression.
RESULTSThe positive rate of MACC1 protein in colorectal cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in normal tissues [75%(72/96) vs. 14.6%(14/96), P<0.01, χ(2)=68.43]. Expression of MACC1 protein was associated with TNM staging (P<0.01, χ(2)=16.82) and distant metastasis (P<0.01, χ(2)=10.53), but not with age, gender, tumor size, differentiation degree, invasion depth, and lymph node metastasis(all P>0.05). Positive rate of MACC1 expression increased with the advanced TNM staging. When distant metastasis occurred, high expression of MACC1 protein in cancer tissues was found. During median 13(4 to 21) months of follow-up, 7 patients died, including 6(8.3%, 6/72) with high expression and 1(4.2%, 1/24) with low expression. Distant metastasis occurred in 9 patients, including 7 with high expression and 2 with low expression. Two patients had local relapse, whose MACC1 expressions were both high.
CONCLUSIONMACC1 protein is highly expressed in colorectal cancer tissues, which may be associated with the invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer.
