The objective was to reserch on level change of SOD and MDA after traumatic brai n injur y,and on neuro-protection mechanism of Suifukang(SFK). 42 Sprague-Daleg rat s were divided into three groups: normal control group (NG), blank control group (BG), and SFK group (SG). Cerebral contusion models were prepared by weight dr opping in BG and SG rats. The injury cerebral areas were removed, and homogenize d, on 6th h, 3rd d, and 7th d after the contusion. Levels of SOD and MDA in cere bral ho mog enate were measured. Levels of MDA and SOD were distinctly higher in BG and SG (
P
>0.05, between BG and SG) on 6th h after cerebral contusion. Levels of MD A and S OD were distinctly higher in BG than in SG (
P
< 0.05) on 3rd d after cere bral contusi on. MDA content was lower in BG than in SG on 7th d after cerebral contusion (
P
<0.0 5). The results show that the oxygen free radical increases after cerebra l contusion, the increase is partly inhibited by treatment with SFK.

The chromatograms of heart homogenate after acute hypoxia in mice were determine d by HPLC. A new compound was found in heart homogenate in mice after hypoxia. A nd the more the tolerant duration increased in mice, the more compounds were pro duced. It was shown the compound was correlative to hypoxia. It may be an antihy poxic factor that can enhance hypoxic tolerance in mice, but it may also be a me tabolite in mice under hypoxia.

The goal was to evaluate the effect of Streptococcal HlpA on IL-6 level in muri ne serum. Serum levels of IL-6 production were measured by means of 7TD1 IL-6 dependent cell line. The IL-6 levels in murine serum induced with Streptococcal HlpA were time and concentration dependent in vivo. There was a synergistic res ponse on the IL-6 level in murine serum induced by the mixture of HlpA and LTA, compared to HlpA alone. On the contrary, anti-HlpA and heparin could restrain serum levels of IL-6 production induced by intravenous injection o f HlpA. It means that Streptococcal HlpA can increase serum levels of IL-6 pr oduction induced by intravenous injection of HlpA. There was significant synergi sm on it in mice vivo after HlpA and LTA were injected together.

To investigate the mechanism of chronic central pain(CCP) after spinal cord inju ry(SCI), the model of CCP was made by weight dropping, then recording the evoked potential of wide dynamic rang (WDR)neurons in spinal cord above the lesion plan e. Compared with the normal rats, the number of early discharges of stimulation -evoked responses significantly decreased. As to the late discharges of stimula tion-evoked responses, respectively the threshold decreased, the latent per iod was shortened, the frequency and the number increased significantly compared with the normal rats. The result suggests that the high excitability of WD R neurons in center above the injury plane may be the reason of CCP after SCI.

The aim was to observe the dynamic change of neuron-specific enolase activity a fter experim ental cerebral ischemia and the effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on it, and exp lore the mechanism of HBO therapy. Sprague Dawlay rats were randomly divided int o three groups: ischemia/reperfusion group (I/R), group treated by HBO (HBO) and sham operated group (Sham-O) as control. Global brain ischemia was induced usi ng a modified four-vessel occlusion model originally described by Pulsinelli an d Buchan. Blood was collected in EDTA respectively at reperfusion time of 6th h, 24th h, 48th h and 96th h after 20 min of ischemia, the NSE activity was measur ed by ELISA. The plasma NSE levels on 6th h and 96th h I/R groups were significant ly h igher than Sham-O group (
P
<0.05). These data suggest that plasma NSE increa sed after global ischemia/reperfusion. The increment of 6th h and 96th h presuma bly represented the acute neuronal necrosis and delayed neuronal death respectiv ely. Compared with 6th h I/R group, the NSE level on 6th h HBO group significantly de crea sed (
P
<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between ot her HBO groups and corresponding I/R groups (
P
>0.05). These data indicate th at the recovery of NSE level in HBO group is earlier than I/R group. The optimal therapeutic window of HBO in this study is 6 h after reperfusion.

This study was to examine TLR-4 gene expression in HEK 293 cells. Total RNA was isolated from human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs) by using trizol re agent. The sequences coding for TLR-4 were amplified and inserted into eukaryot ic expression vector pcDNA3 at HindⅢ and BamHΙsites. The pcDNA3-TLR-4 was tran sfected into HEK 293 cells by using Dosper liposomal transfectional reagent. The expression of TLR-4 was determined on the HEK 293 cells transfected with pcDNA 3 -TLR-4 by fluorescence immunocytochemisty and flow cytometry. 2 726 bp TLR-4 cD NA fragment was amplified from HUVECs by RT-PCR. The recombinant plasmid pcDNA3 -TLR-4 was confirmed by PCR, enzyme digestion and sequencing. Both immunocytoflu orescent staining and flow cytometric analysis showed TLR-4 expression in the H EK 293 cells that was transfected with pcDNA3-TLR-4. This study shows that when tran s fected with pcDNA3-TLR-4, the HEK 293 cells express TLR-4, in order to furthr d efine its ligands and signal pathway.

The aim was to investigate the relationship between the expression of AmpC beta -lactamase i n Enterobacter cloacae and ampD-ampR regulatory gene. Phenotype screening test, PCR amplification, gene clone and DNA sequencings were performed in the 58 stra ins of Enterobacter cloacae. From the 58 strains of Enterobacter cloacae, the nu mberog de repressed strains were 50 and that of hyperinducible mutant strains were 3, resp ecti vely. 49 of the 58 strains harbored bla ampD gene and 51 of 58 strains harb ored bla
ampR
gene. The results of bla
ampD
gene sequencings indicated t hat hyperinducible mutant strains had an amino acid change in 95 codon(Try-95→Arg) and eight of the derepressed strains had amino acid substitutions or deletion i n the carboxy-terminal of ampD. The results of bla
ampR
gene sequencin gs i ndicated that only five of the derepressed strains had the suspicious mutants in the ampR gene. The deletion and amino acid substitutions in the carboxy-termin al of ampD may result in the stably depressed expression of AmpC beta-lactamase in Enterobacter cloacae. The amino acid substitutions of ampR maybe influence t he expression of AmpC beta-lactamase.

The use of database in clinical research is an innovation. Clinical database inf ormation provides a way to evaluate and improve the overall process and results of the broader system of patient care. Exploring questions that arise from this data can identify system issues, which are invisible to individual practitioners or specialties using other traditional review methods. Compared with the first generation database designed in Access by National Conge nital Heart Surgery Database Committee, our database is more complex with full p otential, which can totally meet the needs of clinicians and researchers in the study of congenital heart defects and can provide remote information data sharin g digital platform. Since congenital heart disease surgery is arapidly developin g subject, our database provides assistant tables, with which the new diagnosis, operation and medicine can be combined into the system.

The study was performed in 40 untreated GD patients and in 11 euthyro id subjects. After the normal oral glucose tolerance test, the glucose、 IRI、 C -P and TI were measured in order to investigate the relationship among insulin, true insulin and glucose tolerance in Graves' disease. It was found that the serum glucose, IRI and C-P of the patients' were significantly higher than thos e of the euthyroid controls except for the data at 0 min. The true insulin le vel of the patients' were higher than that of the controls', but only at 60 and 120 min with significant difference. The sigma IRI/sigma BG increased signif icantly in GD group. FT

was correlated negatively with IRI(30, 60, 120 min), C-P(60 min), TI(60 min), and FT
4
was not correlated with the data at the se points. These results indicate that Graves' disease could affect the metabol ism of glucose and cause a series of abnormality, such as hyperglycaemia and hy perinsulinism, which suggests that insulin-resistance is underlying in this c ondition.

Objective: To observe the antioxidant effect and the cytoprotective effect from morphological point of view of exgenous sulfhydryl compound on pancreatic acina r cells in the cou rse of acute necrotic pancreatitis. Methods: Male Wistar mice were divided rand omly into three groups: Group A and B served as animal models, A (
n
=18) with normal saline therapy, whi le B (
n
=18) with Tiopronin therapy; and group C (
n
=9) a normal control. Animals were killed 4, 6 and 12 h after operation respectively. Malondiadehyde(M DA) was analyze d and the pancreatic acinar cells were observed histologically under light mic roscope and electromicroscope. R esults: The level of MDA increased highly during the course of ANP, and it was p revented obviously when Tiopronin-an exgenous sulfhydryl compound was administr ated prophylactically. The pancreas from rats of group A suffered from acute necroti c pancreatitis (ANP). Morphological changes were profound in the pancreatic tiss ue and the acinar cells, and the damage to the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and the mitochondria was most serious. The damage was attenuated to a certain e xtent especially when the RER of acinar cell with Tiopronin was used. Conclusion : A disti nctly antioxidant effect of exgenous sulfhydryl compound is found in the course of ANP, a nd it could protect the acinar cells especially the ultrastructure of the RER.

The aim was to observe the change of endothelin(ET) and calcitonin gene—re lated peptide (CGR P) in patients suffering chronic nephritis in the decompensated stage of renal d ysfunction and their relationship with glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and in o rde r to elucidate the significace of their changes. The plasmer and urine ET and CG RP levels were assessed with radioimmunoassay in 36 patients with chronic nephri tis and correlation analysis. The plasma and urine ET were (72.45±20.65)ng/L, (23.72±5.18)ng/L, CGRP were (90.01±29.77)ng/L, (58.33±22.53)ng/L, respecti vely in chronic nephritis, they were significantly higher than those in normal c ontrols(
P
<0.01). Positive correlation was found between plasma and urine ET (
r

P
<0.05), CGRP(

To detect the role of pancreatitis-associated protein (PAP) in color ectal cancers' diagnosis, and analysis the relationship between serum PAP level and proliferative activity of colorectal cancer tissues. The serum levels of PAP were measured in 27 patients with colorectal cancers and 15 healthy subjects by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In order to verdict t h e proliferative activity of colorectal cancer tissues, DNA ploidy and s-phase f r action (SPF) were detected by flow cytometry. The serum level of CEA an d CA
199
was recorded, and compared with serum PAP level. Result: serum P AP level of the h ealthy subjects was lower than patients with colorectal cancer (
P
< 0.01). The cut off value was set at 25 μg/L. According to this standard, about 44.4% (12/27) colorectal cancer patients exceeded it. For these 12 patients SPF was 17.82 ±8.02 and 8 patients had aneuploid tumor. Nevertheless, the other patients' SPF was 11.17±7.01 and only 3 patients had aneuploid tumor. So the SPF and aneuplo i d tumor had significant difference between them (
P
<0.05). There were 3 cases of P AP positive and CEA or CA
199
negative colorectal cancers. Co- detected PAP serum levels with CEA and CA
199
could enhance the check rate of color ectal cancers. Patient's tumor tissue whose serum PAP lever is over 25 μg/L has high er proliferative activity.

The aim was to study the expression of telomerase activity in tissues of colorec tal carcinom a and to investigate its clinical value in prevention, diagnosis, treatment. A t otal of 50 human colorectal tissue specimens, comprising 40 carcinomas and 10 tu mor-adjacent normal tissue specimens were examined for telomerase activity by t elomeric repeated amplification protocol (TRAP) assay. In the 40 colorectal carc in oma specimens, 34 cases were detected positive expression of telomerase activity (85%), 10 specimens of tumor-adjacent normal tissue were negative. There was si gnificantly difference between the two groups (
P
< 0.05). There was no rel ationshi p between telomerase activity and the site of colorectal carcinoma, the level of cell differentiation, Dukes stage, metastasis of lymph nodes (
P
> 0.05). Th ere is common telomerase activity of colorectal carcinoma tissues. Telomerase ac tivity can become a gene marker of colorectal carcinoma tissues. Detecting the t elomerase activity of colorectal carcinoma tissues may help early discovery, ear ly diagnosis, early treatment. Inhibiting the telomerase activity may cure color ectal carcinoma. Inhibiting or destorying the process of telomerase activity may prevent the cause of colorectal carcinoma.

The aim was to evaluate the perioperative blood glucose control on orthopaedic surgery results in the old pa tients with diabetes mellitus. The blood glucose control during perioperative pe riod in 17 patients with diabetes mellitus who had accepted the orthopaedic surg ery were analysed retropectively. Patient's controlled glucose sta ndard were observed (before meal <7.8 mmol/L, 2 h after meal <11.1 mmol/L). Th e average dura tion of follow-up was 20 months, the patients' orthopaedics diease were curled with no infection and no DKA. Their competence in life was as good as before ope ration. Regular insulin is the abstract method for orthopaedic patients complica t ed with diabetics before operation. Insulin controls blood sugar suitably and ef fectively, which is better than oral drugs to prevent diabetic complications.

Altogether 320 cases with seizures as initial symptoms were studied retr ospectively. They were categorized as different factors, and the percentages of causes for seizures from different groups were evaluated by statistic software S PSS 10.0 . The causes for acute and chronic seizures were different. The varied etiological data from different age groups and different onset styles sh owed that the percentages of causes for seizures were significantly different be tween the two groups with different onset styles (
P
= 0.00). A seizure always presents in various diseases and it shows very complicated poten tial causes to be discoveried. However, we believe some intrinsic relations amon g the seizure causes and some other clinical characters can be traced based on t his study. To figure out the relations among the causes of seizures and age grou ps, seizure patterns and varied onset styles will play an important role for neu rologists to make prompt diagnosis.

Altogether 944 cases of Parkinson disease patients were investigated about their experien ce of treatment, and the reasons of misdiagnosis were summed up. Of the 944 cases, 35.1% of them wer e diagnosed within half a year, 26.3% patients were diagnosed between 0.5 to 1 year, 17.6% patients were diagnosed between 1.0 to 2.0 year, 8.5% patients were diagnosed between 2.0 to 3.0 year, while 12.5% patients were diagnosed after 3 years. Some patients were thought to be young-onset Parkinson disease (YOPD) if the illness onset before 40 year old, while other patients were thought to be re gular PD if the illness onset after 40 year old. In the tremor patients, the diagnosis time of YOPD was (1.7± 1.9) years, while the regular one was (1.4 ±1.7) years, the difference was not significant; In the rigidity type patients, the diagnosis time of YOPD was (2.6±2.4) years, while the regular PD was (1.6 ± 1.8) years, the difference was significant. The former's time of diagnosis i s longer than the later's.

In order to determine and estimate blood/gas partition coefficient of volatile a nesthetics during open heart surgery, blood samples were obtained from six adult patients undergoing valvular replacement with hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypas s 6 times: before induction, skin incision, aortic cannulation, before rewarming during bypass, weaning of bypass and skin suture. Blood/gas partition coefficient of desflurane, isoflurane and halothane were measured simultaneousl y at rectal temperature when blood was sampled. Significant differences were fou nd in blood/gas partition coefficient of the three anesthetics between differen t times during operation (
P
<0.05). Blood/gas partition coefficient at weanin g of bypass was the lowest, about 75% of that before anesthesia induction. The r esults of this study indicate that blood/gas partition coefficients of volatile anesthetics vary dynamically during open heart surgery and they are influenced b y the combination of hypothermia and hemodilution.

The aim was to analyze the histological types of ovarian tumor in our hospital. The pathological data of ovarian tumor during Jun,1982 to Dec, 1999 were collected according to the WHO classification for ovarian tumors. Som e cases which were unsure in the previous pathological diagnosis were reconfirmed according to the WHO classification. 3 582 cases of ovarian tum ors were registered during 18 years in our hospit al. There were 3 068 (85.65%)cases of benign tumors, 419(11.70%)cases of m alignant tumors and 95(2.65%)cases of borderline tumors. Classified by histologi cal type, there were 1 362(38.02%) cases of epithelial tumors, 1 908(53. 27 %) cases of germ cell tumors, 280(7.81 %) cases of sex cord-stromal tumors, 18(0.50%) cases of secondary tumors and 14(0.40%) cases of non-specific soft tissue neoplasm. Among the 514 cases of malignant tumors, epithelial type accounted fo r 66.73%, sex cord-stromal tumors was 16.95%, and germ cell tumors, 13.03% . 71.87 % of malignant germ cell tumor occurred in women younger than 20. In averag e, malignant ovarian epithelial tumor occursat (47.8±11.0) years old. The inciden ce of ovarian germ cell tumors is higher than epithelial. But in malignant tumor s the incidence of common epithelial tumors is especially higher than other types of malignant tumors. The most frequent malignant tumor which occ urs in women younger than 20 is germ cell tumor.

The aim was to explore molecule mechanism of TCRE for treatment of disfunction uterine ble eding. Immunohistochemical method (LSAB) was used on formalin-fixed paraffin-e mbedded e ndometrial sections to study the variety of vascular endothelial growth facto r (VEGF)、 vascular endothelial growth factor receptor KDR expression and microv essels density (MVD) in endomet rium before and after transcervical resection of endometrium. Eight normal cont rols were included. Results: The VEGF, KDR and MVD of the endometrium with simpl e hyperplasia markedly increased. The MVD, VEGF and KDR staining indices were significantl y higher in simple hyperplasia before the surgery than in normal endometrium and after the surgery (
P
< 0.05). But The VEGF, KDR and MVD staining indi ces in simple hyperplasia after the surgery was lower, just same as that of th e control . Conclusion: The high-score of VEGF, KDR and MVD expression of the endometrium with simple hyperplasia may be correlated with abnormal uterine bleeding. TCRE lowers significantly the score of KDR, VEGF and MVD expression of the endome trium with simple hyperplasia.

The objective of this paper was to observe and analyze the effects of glass iono m er, light-fixing composite resin and silver amalgam on restoring wedge-shaped tooth defects. Among 312 wedge-shaped tooth defects of 166 patients were r estored by using glass ionomer, light-fixing composite resin and silver amalgam . Continuous observations were followed up for 1.5~2 years. The results were that 108 teeth were restored by glass ionomer, the successful rate was 82.4%; 104 teeth were re s tored by light-fixing composite resin, the successful rate was 76.0%; 100 teeth we re restored with silver amalgam, the successful rate was 66.0%. Compared with t hre e different type of restoring materials
P
< 0.05, there was significa nt differ ence. Thus, conclusions can be drawn that the three different type of restoring materials have different advantages and defects. All restoring materials are not perfect. Further research is needed to develop a good material, which has all t he advantages of the three types of material, and overcome their disadvantages. From the aspect of good quality and reasonable price, the glass ionomer is r elatively desirable.
