Correction by oral adsorbent of abnormal digestive tract milieu in rats with chronic renal failure

In order to examine the mechanism by which the oral carbonaceousadsorbent, AST-120 delays the appearance of glomerular sclerosis,experiments were carried out in 120 male Sprague-Dawley ratsweighing 285–320 g. The rats were first subjected to 2/3,3/4, and 4/5 nephrectomy (n=40). The experiments were begunat 2 weeks after the surgery, and were performed over an 8-weekperiod. Half of each group (n=20) was administered 1 g/day ofliquid AST-120, and the other half received liquid vehicle solutionwith pair feeding in each group. In the 2/3 nephrectomized groupthe administration of AST-120 delayed the occurrence of glomerularhypertrophy and prevented the appearance of glomerular sclerosiswithout any significant differences in renal function, systemicblood pressure (SBP), and urinary protein excretion (U-P). Inthe 3/4 nephrectomized group the administration of AST-120 delayedthe appearance of glomerular hypertrophy and sclerosis withsignificant decreases in SBP and U-P. In the 4/5 nephrectomizedgroup the administration of AST-120 delayed the appearance ofglomerular sclerosis and prevented a decrease in renal function.It is concluded that administration of the oral adsorbent AST-120delays the occurrence of glomerular sclerosis by delaying theappearance of glomerular hypertrophy, systemic hypertension,and the increase in proteinuria. It can be therefore mentionedthat the accumulating substances in the digestive tract worsenthe abnormal milieu of chronic renal failure.     

穿心莲乙酯对大鼠心肌缺血再灌注损伤的保护作用

本实验观察了穿心莲注射液对大鼠心肌缺血再灌注损伤的影响。结果显示:穿心莲(2.5mg·kg~(-1),iv)可保护缺血再灌注心肌SOD活性(P<0.01),降低MDA含量(P<0.001),明显降低严重心律失常发生率。提示穿心莲注射液对缺血再灌注心脏具有保护作用,其抗脂质过氧化作用可能系其作用机制之一。     

Influence of Osteoarthritis on Serum Marker Levels of Bone Formation and Resorption in Patients with Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy

Background :
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of osteoarthritis of lumbar vertebrae on serum bone formation and resorption marker levels of patients with benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH).
Methods :
Serum levels of carboxyterminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PICP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), carboxyterminaltelopeptide of type I collagen (ICTP), and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) were examined in 40 patients with BPH, and the presence of osteoarthritis at the lumbar vertebrae of the patients was evaluated by plain x-ray-p.
Results :
Findings of osteoarthritis were observed in 23 of the 40 patients (58%), and 10 of the patients had severe osteoarthritis (involving at least 2 lumbar vertebral bodies). The serum levels of PICP, ALP, ICTP, and PSA of the patients without osteoarthritis findings were not different from those of the patients with osteoarthritis or severe osteoarthritis.
Conclusion :
The influence of osteoarthritis on serum bone formation and resorption marker levels of patients with BPH appears to be rather slight, if there is any influence at all.     

急性心肌梗死再灌注期间的心电变化特征

目的　探讨急性心肌梗死 (AMI)再灌注期间的心电变化特征。方法　 46例经急诊冠状动脉造影明确为成功再灌注的AMI,其中 2 4例接受溶栓治疗和 2 2例接受直接经皮腔内冠状动脉成形 ,于发病的 6小时内以动态心电图技术持续2 4小时监测心电图变化 ,并与 1 5例无灌注者进行对比。结果　①再灌注发生后 ,相应导联ST段迅速下降 ,约 2小时达较低水平 ;同时 ,T波正向振幅进行性降低 ,距再灌注 0～ 2 2 (2 7± 4 5)小时呈现T波倒置并逐渐加深。②再灌注后的 1小时内 ,室性心律失常明显增加 ,6～ 8小时后显著减少。结论　AMI早期再灌注发生后呈现特征性心电变化 ,及时识别这些特征将有助于临床评估再灌注状态和危险度分层     

Can a Single Muscle Fiber Model the Features of Myocardial Stunning?

The exact mechanisms that cause myocardial stunning are still unclear. We previously utilized a computer model of the ventricle that was effective in modeling the dominant observable features of stunning, but it was not simple to implement. This led to the design of a single muscle fiber model. The mathematical model of a muscle fiber consisted of three elements: a contractile element, a series elastic element, and a parallel elastic element. The model created length waveforms based on time-dependent force and contractile stiffness functions. This model was initially evaluated by entering the same regional parameter values used in the global dual region ventricular model. First a reduction of the contractile stiffness function was applied by reducing the peak stiffness by 30%, and then the rates of activation and deactivation were reduced by 20% while maintaining the peak values constant. The three-element model produced results very similar to the canine and ventricular model. Thus, it is concluded that the simpler three-element model provides an accurate model of the myocardial tissue and its deficiencies during stunning.
