Objective To systematically evaluate the influence of alcohol intervention on the outcome of rats and mice with ischemic stroke. Methods Databases including PubMed, EMbase, BIOSIS and CNKI were electronically searched from establishment dates of databases to June 2012 to retrieve animal experiments on the influence of alcohol intervention on the outcome of rats and mice with ischemic stroke. The relevant studies were identified according to the predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, the data were extracted, and the quality was evaluated. Then meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.1 software. Results Eight studies were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that no significant difference was found between the alcohol intervention group and the control group (MD=−6.98%, 95%CI −20.38% to 6.43%, P=0.31). However, compared with the control group, low dose of acute alcohol intervention (less than 2 g/kg) improved the prognosis of ischemic stroke with a significant difference (MD=−22.83%, 95%CI −38.77% to −6.89%, P=0.005), and highly-concentrated of chronic alcohol intervention worsened the cerebral ischemic damage of rats and mice with a significant difference (MD=24.06%, 95%CI 10.54% to 37.58%, P=0.000 5). Conclusion Low dose of acute alcohol intervention (less than 2 g/kg) could improve the prognosis of rats and mice with ischemic stroke which has the potential neuro-protective effects. However, highly-concentrated chronic alcohol intervention could worsen the cerebral ischemic damage. Due to the limitations of the included studies such as publication bias, the influence of alcohol intervention on the outcome of rats and mice with ischemic stroke could be overestimated.
Objective To evaluate the effect and significance of PBL in clinical skills experiment teaching center (CSETC). Methods A total of 60 undergraduates in major of clinical medicine were divided into two groups according to their student ID. The control group (n=30) was set in an ordinary small classroom, while the experimental group (n=30) was in CSETC for fully using the teaching resources there. Both groups were taught with PBL method by same teachers, and the integrated final examination and questionnaire were adopted to evaluate the teaching effect. SPSS was used for statistical analysis. Results All 8 participated teachers believed that carrying out PBL in CSETC could promote teachers’ professional development, alleviate the shortage of teachers and classroom, increase the utilization ratio of CSETC, and improve the teaching quality. The results of survey on students showed that, compared with the control group, information management ability and clinical skills of students were improved obviously (Plt;0.01). Although there was no difference in total score of final exam, the experimental group was markedly higher than the control group in the score of clinical skill subject (Plt;0.01). Conclusion Carrying out PBL in CSETC can improve teaching quality, and clinical skills and information management ability of students. It is helpful to alleviate the shortage of teachers and classroom, and promote the teaching standards of CSETC.
Objective Tolerogenic DCs (Tol-DCs), a group of cells with imDC phenotype, can stably induce T cells low-reactivity and immune tolerance. We systematically reviewed the adoptive transfusion of Tol-DCs induced by different ways to prolong cardiac allograft survival and its possible mechanism. Method MEDLINE (1966 to March 2011), EMbase (1980 to March 2011), and ISI (inception to March 2011) were searched for identification of relevant studies. We used allogeneic heart graft survival time as endpoint outcome to analyze the effect of adoptive transfusion of Tol-DC on cardiac allograft. By integrating studies’ information, we summarized the mechanisms of Tol-DC in prolonging cardiac grafts. Results Four methods were used to induce Tol-DC in all of the 44 included studies including gene-modified, drug-intervened, cytokine-induced, and other-derived (liver-derived amp; spleen-derived) DCs. The results showed that all types of Tol-DC can effectively prolong graft survival, and the average extension of graft survival time for each group was as follows: 22.02 ± 21.9 days (3.2 folds to control group) in the gene modified group, 25.94 ± 16.9 days (4.3 folds) in the drug-intervened groups, 9.00 ± 8.13 days (1.9 folds) in the cytokine-induced group, and 10.69 ± 9.94 days (2.1 folds) in the other-derived group. The main mechanisms of Tol-DCs to prolong graft survival were as follows: a) induceT-cell hyporeactivity (detected by MLR); b) reduce the effect of cytotoxic lymphocyte (CTL); c) promote Th2 differentiation; d) induce Treg; e) induce chimerism. Conclusion For fully MHC mismatched allogeneic heart transplant recipients of inbred mouse, adoptive transfusion of Tol-DC, which can be gene-modified, drug-intervened, cytokine-induced, spleen-derived or liver-derived, can clearly prolong the survival of cardiac allograft or induce immune tolerance. Gene-modified and drug-induced Tol-DC can prolong graft survival most obviously. Having better reliability and stability than drug-induction, gene-modification is the best way to induce Tol-DCs at present. One-time intravenous infusion of 2 × 106 Tol-DC is a simple and feasible way to induce long-term graft survival. Multiple infusions will prolong it but increase the risk and cost. Adoptive transfusion of Tol-DC in conjunction with immunosuppressive agents may also prolong the graft survival time.
Objective In order to improve the standing on the studies of Exercise Prescription (EP), a systematic review was conducted to provide reference and theory for further studies. Methods A broad computerized literature search of Medlin via Ovid, PubMed in all fields, Sport Discus, CINAHL, CAM, EMbase, EBM Cochrane Database of SR, and Web of Science was carried out till June 2008. Firstly, four categorical searches were conducted with the following keywords for searches: Exercise Prescription, Physical Fitness, Exercise Therapy, Fitness Assessment, Exercise Test and RCTs, and the searched results were checked by reviewers and duplicate results were removed. Then all titles were manually searched for potential inclusion in the review. Articles retrieved, review articles were examined for further relevant references. Results There were 318 relevant articles, however, the RCTs were only 7, and systematic review and meta-analysis were only one, respectively. Considering the importance and reference values there were 93 articles were included. 1970s was the developing age of EP; 1980s more specific EP were provided for many purposes; 1990s with the techniques developing of physical fitness, exercise therapy, fitness assessment and exercise test, EP for treating and rehabilitating more chronics and civilizing diseases were developed; 2000s the RCTs and CCTs were applied in the EP studies. Conclusions The developing of EP has close relationship with the developing of physical fitness, exercise therapy, fitness assessment, and exercise test. Although the RCTs researches in this field were limited, most of them were positive to support the advantage of EP. How to highly improve the advantages and greatly decrease the risk of EP is still valuable to study in the future.

Objective To investigate the sensitivity of 5 kinds of chemotherapeutic drugs on human colorectal cancer in vivo. Methods Xenografts in nude mice were set up by tumor tissues from 9 patients with colorectal cancer and nude mice were divided into 6 groups randomly, receiving saline (control group), 5-fluorouracil (5-FU group), doxorubicin(ADM group), mitomycin (MMC group), oxaliplatin (LOHP group), and irinotecan (CPT-11 group), respectively. The inhibitive rates (IR) of xenografts in 5 groups for each patient were calculated. Results The lowest and highest IR of 5 groups were 23.6% and 54.9% in 5-FU group, 23.7% and 69.5% in LOPH group, 23.6% and 82.6% in CPT-11group, 24.1% and 48.1% in MMC group, 5.8% and 20.7% in ADM group, respectively. The IR exceeded 40.0% in 7 patients of LOHP group, 6 patients of CPT-11 group, 4 patients of 5-FU group, and 1 patient of MMC group, respec-tively. Of 9 patients, the IR exceeded 40.0% to 3 kinds of drugs in 3 patients, to 2 kinds of drugs in 4 patients, the IR didn’t exceed 30.0% to 4 kinds of drug (IR was 82.6% to CPT-11) in 1 patient, and the IR didn’t exceed 31.0% to all 5 kinds of drugs in 1 patient. There were statistical differences on the IR of 5 kinds of drugs (H=24.061 2, P=0.000 1). IR of ADM group was statistical lower than 5-FU group, MMC group, LOHP group, and CPT-11 group (P<0.05),but there were no statistical differences between 5-FU group, MMC group, LOHP group, and CPT-11 group (P>0.05). Conclusions The xenografts from same patient have different sensitivity to different chemotherapy drugs, and the same chemotherapy drug corresponds to different IR in different patients. The IR of LOHP and CPT-11 are the highest, following by 5-FU and MMC.
Objective To discuss the methods of producing experimental models of chronic pancreatitis and their individual properties. Methods The recent literatures about experimental models of chronic pancreatitis were reviewed and analyzed. Methods of producing experimental models and their individual properties were summarized, and best models suitable for varied chronic pancreatitis were afforded. Results Diet, ligation of pancreatic duct, caerulein, dibutyltin dichloride (DBTC), arterial ligation, injecting microspheres into artery, and injection of pancreatic duct could induce different experimental models of chronic pancreatitis. Spontaneous chronic pancreatitis was induced by diet, chronic obstructive pancreatitis produced by ligation and injection of pancreatic duct, chronic relapsing pancreatitis evoked by caerulein, and chronic active pancreatitis made by arterial ligation and injecting microspheres into artery.Conclusion Different methods could induce models of chronic pancreatitis, which had their individual properties.
ObjectiveTo investigate the possible mechanism affecting liver cirrhosis by splenectomy. MethodsBy subcutaneous administration of 20% carbon tetrachloride(CCl4), liver cirrhosis models were established in splenectomy and nonsplenectomy groups. After HE staining, special staining and immunohistochemical staining, mast cell, Kupffer’s cell and Ito cell were counted under optical microscope. Liver pathological sections and the dynamic changes of these cells in mice were studied respectively in comparison with the normal group.ResultsThe incidence of liver cirrhosis in nonsplenectomy group was significantly higher than that in splenectomy group after the 16th injection of CCl4 (P<0.05). The count of mast cell was much higher than that in splenectomy group after the 4th and the 8th injection (P<0.05). Kupffer’s cell and Ito cell significantly increased after the 12th and the 16th injection in nonsplenectomy group compared with splenectomy group (P<0.05). ConclusionSplenectomy may decline the incidence of hepatic cirrhosis caused by multifactors. In the early stage, splenectomy influences the migration, maturation and accumulation of mast cell. In the middle and late stage, it influences the proliferation of Kupper’s cell and cytokine secretion, thus the Ito cells are activated and proliferation is inhibited, in which extracellular matrix decreases in amount and the degree of hepatic fibrosis is reduced.
