ABSTRACT
Objective To explore medical equipment management to decrease medical risks.Methods A medical equipment risk management model was established to deploy medical equipment rationally,evaluate the risk value of medical equipment,calculate the total risk value of medical equipment of the department and to propose the requirements for medical equipment utilization and management.Results The risks of medical equipment could be decreased by improved medical equipment management in deployment,utilization and maintenance as well as emphases on personnel and regulation.Conclusion Risk minimization is of great significance for medical equipment users and management department.
ABSTRACT
In order to explore the role of acetylcholine in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD), the changes in the concentration of acetylcholine (Ach) in the striatum, the apoptosis of substantia nigra cells, the ultrastructure and the changes of Nissl cells in rats during the morbidity of PD, and the corresponding behaviors in rats with PD were observed. Rat PD model was established by using the modified Thomas method. Eighty-one rats were randomly divided into normal control, sham operation and PD groups and their behavior features were observed at post-operative day (POD) 7, 14 and 21 as three subgroups (n=9 each). The concentration of Ach in the striatum was determined by using high-performance liquid chromatography. The apoptosis of substantia nigra cells was assayed by using TUNEL method. The ultrastructural changes in the substantia nigra were observed under the electron microscopy, and the survival of neurons in the substantia nigra area was examined by using Nissl staining. In PD group at POD 7 to 21, the damage in the substantia nigra area was gradually aggravated, the concentration of Ach, apoptosis rate and turns of rotation were gradually increased, and the number of Nissl cells was gradually reduced over the time as compared with the normal control and sham operation groups (all P<0.05). It was concluded that there exist dynamic changes in Ach concentration, ethology and apoptosis of the substantia nigra cells during the morbidity of PD, suggesting the contribution of apoptosis to the morbidity of PD, and critical role of Ach in the pathogenesis of PD.

Objective To study the relationship between serum iron, serum ferritin and alcoholic fatty liver(AFL), nonalcoholic fatty liver(NFAL). Methods The liver specimens of 97 patients with fatty liver were obtained by 1 second liver biopsy, and were further stained by haematoxylin eosin(HE) and Perl's Prussian. Meanwhile the serum levels of iron and ferritin were detected by atomic absorption spectrum and radioimmunoassay respectively. Results Compare to the control group ((10.5?5.7)?mol/L, (143.3?71.9)ng/ml),the serum levels of iron and ferritin were obviously high in patients with severe NAFL ((21.5 ?11.1 ) ?mol/L , (199.3?72.1)ng/ml) or moderate AFL((20.9? 9.3 )?mol/L,(217.6.0?71.8)ng/ml) and severe AFL ((29.1?6.5) ?mol/L ,(284.7?77.9)ng/ml) ( P
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish nude mice model of bone metastasis of breast cancer,and study the best method to evaluate the model.Methods The human breast cancer cell,MDA-MB-231PEGFPN,was injected into left ventricule of nude mice to construct the bone metastasis of breast cancer animal model.Methods of X-ray,whole body optical imaging and pathology were used to evaluate the bone damage after six weeks.Results After six weeks,the result of pathology showed that breast cancer cells had already spread to brain,bone marrow and lung of nude mice.The degree of bone destruction was seen clearly in X-ray,and location of breast cancer cells was observed by whole body optical imaging system.Conclusions The results showed that combined application of X-ray,whole body optical imaging and pathology are the best modalities to evaluate bone metastasis of breast cancer in nude mice.
