Somatotype characteristics of Zhuang-Dong ethnic group by Heath-Carter method in China / 解剖学报

[Abstract] Objective To explore the somatotype characteristics of Zhuang-Dong ethnic groups in China. Methods The Heath-Carter somatotyping method was used to study the somatotypes of 9965 (male 4312, female 5653) cases from 15 Zhuang-Dong language groups. Results The average somatotype of males in the Zhuang-Dong ethnic group were 4. 1-5. 2-1. 9, which belonged to the mesodermal somatotype of partial endoderm, and the mean somatotype of women were 5. 5-4. 9-1. 3, which belongs to the endoderm somatotype of partial mesoderm. Except for endomorphy factor and SAM, height, weight, mesomorphy, ectomorphy and HWR of all age groups of males were greater than those of females. There were statistically significant differences in somatotype among the three age groups among the sexes of the Zhuang-Dong language group. The weight, height, and ectomorphy of men and women were negatively correlated with age, and endomorphy were positively correlated with age. Among them, the male mesomorphy was not correlated with age, and the female mesomorphy was positively correlated with age. The differences between male and female three-factor value age groups were statistically significant. Conclusion The somatotype of male and female of Zhuang-Dong ethnic group has obvious changes with the increasing of age, and the southern ethnic group has the characteristics of low linearity, well-developed bones and muscles, and plump body fat.

Hypertension status and its biochemical indexes analysis in Zhuang-Dong ethnic groups / 解剖学报

Objective To investigate the prevalence rate and biochemical characteristics of frypertension in Zhuang-Dong ethnic groups in China. Methods Blood pressure and biochemical indexes were measured in 7411 cases (3248 males and 4163 females) from 5 ethnic groups of Zhuang-Dong nationality. Results The difference of crude prevalence rate of hypertension among Zhuang-Dong language groups was statistically significant. The crude prevalence of Irypertension in males of the same age group was higher than that in females. Systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in males and females increased with age, and the crude prevalence of Irypertension also increased with age. The mean values of triglyceride, cholesterol and low density lipoprotein in males of Zhuang-Dong language group were all lower than those of females. The mean levels of blood uric acid, blood urea and blood lipid in hypertensive patients were significantly higher than those with nonnal blood pressure; the mean levels of bilirubin and serum protein in Irypertensive patients were close to those with nonnal blood pressure; the mean levels of blood lipid in Irypertensive patients were more than the nonnal range. Conclusion The prevalence of Irypertension in Zhuang-Dong ethnic group is high. The patients with Irypertension should pa)' attention to the increase of blood uric acid, blood urea and blood lipid.

Stability of akebia saponin D in gastrointestinal contents of rats / 中国中药杂志

In order to study the stability of akebia saponin D (ASD) in biological fluids in vitro, the determination methods of ASD were established in this study. Akebia saponin D was dissolved in artificial gastric juice, intestinal juice and gastrointestinal contents of rats, respectively, then thermostatically maintained at 37 degrees C. At time intervals after degradation, samples were withdrawn and the concentrations of ASD were determined by HPLC, from which stability of it at different biological specimen was evaluated. As a result, ASD was totally degraded in large intestinal contents of rats in 8 hours. ASD was very stable in artificial gastric juice, intestinal juice and gastric contents of rats. All of the above data proved that ASD was easily degraded by coliform bacteria but stable in acid environment and with the presence of digestive enzyme.

Application of computer aided design in the treatment of acetabular malignant tumor: One-case report / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND: Acetabular malignant tumor reconstruction is to obtain pelvic stability and lower limb walking function to excise the tumor at safe margin.Excision range has been evaluated by MRI,CT,X-ray,which are subjective and lack preoperative design.Computer-aided three-dimensional reconstruction can evaluate tumor erosion range from all planes to accurately excise the tumor.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the value of computer aided design in the treatment of acetabular malignant tumor.METHODS: One case with acetabular hemangiosarcoma was checked with lamellar CT scanning,which acquired some two-dimensional data in disease area.The three-dimensional reconstruction of anatomical model,design of cutting bone extent,design of individual prosthesis and sham operation were made by computer.Based on computer aided design proposal,acetabular tumor was resected,pelvic ring and right hip articulation were reconstructed with allogeneic semi-pelvis and individual total hip replacement.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The patient began to non-weight bearing walk with double crutches 2 months after operation.At6 months,the patient walked normally.The right hip joint motion was good with no pain.Postoperative X-ray film displayed individual prosthesis matched to pelvis.The patient fell a little numbness of skin in the lateral of right hip.No phlebothrombosis,prosthesis loosening or dislocation was found.Computer aided design has a good perspective of application in the treatment of acetabular malignant tumor.Individualized treatment can improve operation accuracy,reliability,convenience and curative effect.
