BACKGROUND:The oxygen free radicals and apoptosis play an important role in limb ischemia/reperfusion injury, so we can al eviate limb ischemia/reperfusion injury by inhibiting the production of oxygen free radicals and apoptosis.
OBJECTIVE:To discuss the application and effect of edaravone on limb ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats.
METHODS:Of the 30 female Sprague-Dawley rats, 20 rats were randomly selected to make models of limb ischemia/reperfusion injury by ligating the root of right lower limb with a self-made bal oon cuff at 40 kPa pressure to block blood flow for 4 hours and reperfusing. After success model establishment, they were randomly assigned to two groups. In the edaravone perfusion group, edaravone 3 mg/kg was injected via the left femoral vein at 5 minutes before reperfusion. In the model group and normal group (the remaining 10 rats), an equal volume of physiological saline was given at the same time point. At 24 hours after reperfusion, the right anterior tibial muscle of each group was removed and these ultrastructural changes were observed by transmission electron microscope. Bcl-2 mRNA and Bax mRNA of rat anterior tibial muscle of each group were semiquantitatively detected with the RT-PCR and the ratio of bcl-2/bax was calculated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Electron microscope results:compared with the model group, the muscle fibers were neater;the M line and the N line were clearer;the swel ing of mitochondria was al eviated;the numbers of mitochondria and mitochondrial crista were also increased in the edaravone perfusion group. (2)RT-PCR results:At 24 hours after reperfusion, the relative expression of bcl-2 mRNA and the ratio of bcl-2 mRNA to bax mRNA in right anterior tibial muscle were lower in the model group compared with the edaravone perfusion group (P<0.05). However, relative expression of bax mRNA was greater in the model group than that in the edaravone perfusion group, which were both higher than the normal group (P<0.05). Results indicated that the free radical scavenger edaravone relieved limb ischemia/reperfusion injury by improving the mitochondrial ultrastructure and promoting expression of bcl-2 mRNA and inhibiting expression of bax mRNA, and could provide a new choice for the treatment of limb ischemia/reperfusion injury.

OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical effects of Mobi-C cervical artificial disc replacement (CADR) and anterior cervical decompression and fusion (ACDF) in treating single cervical disc herniation.

METHODSFrom June 2009 to June 2012, the clinical data of 27 patients with single cervical disc herniation were retrospectively analyzed. There were 18 males and 9 females, aged from 30 to 62 years old with an average of 46.7 years. Of them, 12 patients were treated with CADR (CADR group) and 15 patients with ACDF (ACDF group). All patients had pain and numbness in neck, shoulder and upper limbs, and courses of disease was from 1 to 13 months with an average of 2.4 months. The data of clinical evaluation and questionnaire survey about quality of life were collected before operation, postoperative at 1 week and final follow-up. Odom criterion was used to evaluate postoperative effect. Visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to record pain levels. Neck disability index (NDI) and health questionnaire SF-36 were used to assess the quality of life.

RESULTSNo complications about nerve and blood vessel were found and the patients were followed up from 6 to 30 months, with an average of 16 months. One week after operation, 10 cases got excellent results and 2 good in CADR group; 5 cases got excellent results and 10 good in ACDF group; there was significant difference between two groups (P<0.05). At final follow-up, 10 cases got excellent results and 2 good in CADR group; 12 cases got excellent results and 3 good in ACDF group; there was no significant difference between two groups (P> 0.05). Pain of upper limbs had obviously relieved between two groups at 1 week after operation and final follow-up (P<0.05). VAS of neck and NDI in CADR group had decreased respectively from preoperative 3.58±0.79, 23.42±6.36 to 0.58±0.51, 5.42±1.68 at 1 week after operation (P<0.05); but the index in ACDF group was no obvious at 1 week after operation. At final follow-up, VAS of neck and NDI and SF-36 score were obviously improved than preoperation (P<0.05) between two groups.

CONCLUSIONMobi-C CADR retains the movement unit in the decompression segment and can quickly recover normal action for patients. Using CADR method has a good curative effect in the early phase, and the clinical effect is reliable, may improve the quality of life.

The traditional fermentation engineering experiment requires a reform on the experimental con-tents and teaching pattern. According to the production process of industrial enzymes, we set up a two-week comprehensive experiment. The students designed and prepared the experiment by themselves. Moreover, the pattern of self-management was used in the process and the experiment scores included the self-assess-ment and objective assessment. It was proved that the new teaching pattern increased the study interesting of students, inspired their initiative and trained their spirits of team cooperation. The teaching effect was im-proved markedly and good ideas are also put forward to solve the possible problem.
