OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of temperature and time on the detection results of calcium and magnesium in urinary sample storage. METHODS: Urinary samples of 5 health volunteers were collected. The samples were stored in room temperature, 4 ℃ and-20 ℃ for different duration after sealed separately. A flame atomic absorption spectrometry was used to detect calcium and magnesium mass concentrations in the urinary samples. RESULTS: The variation rate of calcium and magnesium mass concentrations was <2.00% when urinary samples were stored at room temperature for 8 hours, the variation rate was <6.00% when samples were stored at 4 ℃ for 15 days, and it was <5.00% when samples were stored at-20 ℃ for 60 days. CONCLUSION: The temperature and time of urinary sample storage can affect the detection results of calcium and magnesium mass concentrations. Packing and storing samples at low temperature after collection as soon as possible is beneficial to ensure the accuracy of test results.

Objective To compare the anatomical differences of tibia osteotomy between Han and Uygur populations and to analysis their compatibility with imported prosthesis component.Methods Two hundred patients (400 knees) were selected from the outpatients and healthy volunteers of the non-knee joint disease from September 1,2012 to December 1,2014,with 86 men (172 knees) and 114 women (228 knees).The average age is 44.64-10.8 years (range 21-68 years old).According to the populations,the subjects were divided into Han group and Uygur group.Furthermore,each group was divided into male subgroup and female subgroup.A full-length CT scan of the lower limb was conducted to reconstruct the knee joint in the workstation.The tibial osteotomy was simulated in total knee arthroplasty.The transverse diameter of the tibial cross section,the longitudinal depth of the medial platform and the depth of the lateral platform were measured.The front and back diameter and aspect ratio of the osteotomy were calculated.There parameters were compared between the Han and Uygur groups.Five mm tolerance range method was used to analysis the cover rate of the following three kinds of commercially imported prosthesis,namely Depuy,Link and Zimmer.Results The mean value of the tibial cross section were 72.3±4.3 mm,50.7±3.1 mm,47.8±3.0 mm,49.3±2.9 mm and 0.682±0.021 in Han group,while those were 74.5±4.8 mm,51.4±3.0 mm,48.6±2.8 mm,50.0±2.9 mm and 0.672±0.020 in Uygur group,respectively.Except the aspect ratio,the average value of each parameter in Uygur group was greater than that in the Han group with statistically significant differences between the two populations.The cover rate of the three kinds of prosthesis tibial component were 53.0％,37.0％ and 40.0％ for Han group,but 61.0％,43.0％ and 42.5％ for Uygur group.Depuy prosthesis was fit for the Uygur population better.Conclusion The geometry and anatomy of proximal tibia in Chinese showed significant difference between Han and Uygur populations.The mean covering rates of the imported tibial components were low in the dimensions of the resected surface.We can improve the prosthesis and the matching degree by adjusting the parameters or increasing the model set.

Objective To explore the role of fibrogenic cytokines and inflammatory cytokines in the pathogenesis of frozen shoulder. Methods From September, 2014 to April, 2016, 20 patients with frozen shoulder accepted arthroscopic surgery were included, ten of them were diagnosed as primary frozen shoulder (group A), the other ten were secondary frozen shoulder (group B). Other ten patients undergo-ing shoulder arthroscopy for instability (4 cases), rotator cuff injury (3 cases) and subacromial impingement (3 cases) were as the controls (group C). The mRNA levels of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 1, MMP3, tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, IL-8, granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and M-CSF in synovium were analyzed with quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Results The expression of mRNA of MMP1, MMP3, TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, GM-CSF and M-CSF were more in group A and group B than in group C (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between group A and group B (P>0.05). Conclusion The fibro-genic cytokines and inflammatory cytokines may play a role in the pathogenesis of frozen shoulder.

Upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage (UGH) is a kind of intensive disease commonly encountered clinically. In recent years, the diagnosis and treatment method of UGH had achieved satisfied progress. But with the development of aged tendency of population, its morbidity is still in a high level. Especially in older patients with serious complications, the fatality rate is much higher. It has been proved practically, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has remarkable effects in treating UGH. This article summarized the progress of TCM or integrative medicine studies on UGH through etiology and pathogenesis, therapeutic principle and methods.

Objective To investigate the effect of Buyanghuanwu decoction(BYHWD) on the expression of growth-associated protein 43(GAP-43) and synaptophysin(SYP) after focal cerebral ischemia in mice.Methods Focal cerebral ischemia was induced by 30 min of middle cerebral artery occlusion followed by reperfusion.BYHWD (20 g/kg) was administered orally 24 h after ischemia and once a day.The neurological score and the corner test were used to evaluate sensorimotor function on 1,3,7,and 14 days after ischemia.The expression of GAP-43 and SYP in the ischemic boundary zone was determined by immunohistochemistry 14 days after ischemia.Results Compared with the model group,BYHWD significantly ameliorated neurological dysfunction at 3,7 and 14 days and reduced the number of right turn at 7 and 14 days after ischemia(P ＜ 0.05).The average optical density of GAP-43 and SYP was 0.217 ±0.012 and 0.278 ±0.019 at the boundary zone in model group 14 days after ischemia,respectively.BYHWD also significantly increased the immunoreactivity of GAP-43 (0.250 ± 0.013)and SYP(0.323 ± 0.017) (P＜ 0.01).Conclusion BYHWD promotes axonal regeneration and synaptic plasticity in the ischemic boundary zone,which may contribute to functional recovery after focal cerebral ischemia.

Objective To investigate the immune response to and protective effect of a bivalent DNA vaccine expressing interleukin-2(IL-2)and Gpd proteins in New Zealand rabbits.Methods Seventy-two male New Zealand white rabbits were equally and randomly divided into 4 groups to be immunized with recombinant plasmids pcDNA3.1(+)/Gpd-IL-2(pcD/Gpd-IL-2),pcDNA3.1(+)/Gpd(pcD/Gpd),empty plasmid pcDNA3.1(+)(pcD)and phosphate buffered saline(PBS),respectively.Immunization was carried out by intramuscular injection at multiple sites with a 2-week interval for 3 times.On week 10 after the initial immunization,the rabbits were challenged intradermally with T.pallidum(Nichols strain).Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to quantify the serum level of anti-Gpd antibodies in the rabbits and the level of IL-2 and interferon(IFN-γ)in the supernatant of Gpd protein-stimulated spleen cells from the rabbits at different time pionts.MTT assay was conducted to detect the proliferation response of spleen cells collected from the rabbits on day 0,14,28,140 and 168 after the challenge.Results Compared with pcD and PBS,both the vaccines pcD/Gpd and pcD/Gpd-IL-2 elicited significantly higher levels of anti-Gpd IgG antibodies in rabbits at different time points during the vaccination and infection period,with the titers peaking at 1 ∶ 1024 and 1∶4096,respectively(both P ＜ 0.01).There were also significant differences in the serum levels of anti-Gpd IgG antibodies between the pcD/Gpd-and pcD/Gpd-IL-2-immunized rabbits at different time points(all P ＜0.01).The levels of IL-2 in the supematant of spleen cells from pcD/Gpd-and pcD/Gpd-IL-2-immunized rabbits on week 8 after the immunization were 110 ± 12.6 and 167 ± 15.7 μg/L respectively,and those of IFN-γwere 225 ± 17.6 and 447 ± 22.4 μg/L respectively,significantly higher than those in that from the other two groups of rabbits(all P ＜ 0.01).Furthermore,an apparent proliferation response was observed in spleen cells from pcD/Gpd-and pcD/Gpd-IL-2-immunized rabbits with a higher stimulation index compared with pcD-and PBS-immunized rabbits(all P ＜ 0.01).Dark-field microscopic examination of early-stage infected lesions revealed that pcD/Gpd-IL-2-immunized rabbits had a lower detection rate(17.5％)of Tp from lesions,occurrence of ulcerative lesions(15％)and shorter curing time compared with pcD/Gpd-immunized rabbits.Conclusion The recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1(+)/Gpd-IL-2 could induce protective humoral and cellular immune response more efficiently in rabbits.
