ABSTRACT
Objective The health risk behaviors of undergraduates exist universally, which can induce other social problems. The aim of this study was to describe the present situation and analyze the influencing factors of health risk behaviors of 404 undergradu-ates. Methods Adolescent Health Related Behaviors Questionnaires were conducted in 404 undergraduates chosen from a University in Nantong by stratified cluster sampling method.Logistic regression and multiplicative interactive effects were adopted to analyze the influ-encing factors. Results Health risk behaviors were common among college students.In the past 30 days, 33.4%of students had rule-breaking behaviors in bicycle riding and 45.3%had rule breaking behaviors in walking.In the past 12 months, 2.7%of students had in-tentionally hurt themselves, 2.5%had suicidal inclination, 19.8%had smoking history, 69.3%had drinking history, 7.4%participa-ted in the gambling, 7.7%and 11.9%played video games and surfed online over 4 hours everyday, respectively, and 4.5%of students have had sex.In the past 30 days, 94.3% of students lost their weight through the unhealthy way, and 37.8%of students participated physi-cal exercise over 60 minutes for at least 3 days in the past 7 days.Lo-gistic regression indicated that male, higher grade and higher education level of the student′s mother were the risk factors of some health risk behaviors.Interactive effect was not found between the different influencing factors. Conclusion Health risk behaviors exist widely a-mong college students and more attention should be paid to risk behaviors of college students.Health behaviors should be trained among adolescents to improve their overall health level.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the mechanism of vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF)165 and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) improving cardiomyocyte proliferation in experimental porcine after myocardial infarction (MI). Methods: The MI model was established by left anterior descending artery ligation in 15 male pigs and the animals were divided into 3 groups, n=5 in each group. Control group, the pigs received normal saline injection at the infarct and peri-infarct zones. VEGF group, the pigs received (1×1010 ) pfu of viral titers of Ad-VEGF injection. HGF group, the pigs received (1×1010 ) pfu of viral titers of Ad-HGF injection. The myocardial perfusion and cardiac function were examined by SPECT, the protein expressions of VEGF165 and HGF were measured by Western blot analysis, cardiomyocyte proliferation was analyzed by immunolfuorescence and immunoprecipitation method. Results: ① Compared with Control group, the expressions of VEGF165 and HGF were higher at the infarct and peri-infarct zones in both treatment groups; ② Both treatment groups had better cardiac function and myocardial perfusion; ③ Both treatment groups had improved cardiomyocyte proliferation at the infarct and peri-infarct zones.④VEGF165 promoted cardiomyocyte proliferation via p27 pathway;⑤HGF promoted cardiomyocyte proliferation via p21 and p27 pathways. Conclusion: VEGF165 and HGF could improve myocardial perfusion and function in experimental porcine after MI, VEGF165 and HGF promote cardiomyocyte proliferation via different pathways.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To study the pharmacokinetics of recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)in a thrombosis model of femoral artery in rabbits.METHODS:Large glass plates were used for modified agar-well diffusion assay to measure r-SAK concentration in plasma of rabbits which had been administered different doses drug by different means respective?ly.RERULTS:The pharmacokinetics of r-SAK infusion in thrombosis model of the femoral artery in rabbits fits two-com?partment model,the plasma levels and the diameter of lytic circles showed a good linear correlation under the scope of20～2500IU/ml(r=0.9960),and the averaged recovery rate was(96.05?9.20)%.The peak concentrations of low,medial and high dose drop group and single iv group are(2.28?1.06),(3.54?0.32),(6.12?1.61)and(5.16?1.02)?g/ml.CONCLUSION:The biological assays is a simple,reliable method to determine the plasma level.
ABSTRACT
AimThe effect of herbal tongxinluo on the thrombus formation and neointimal hyperplasia of the balloon injured rabbit abdominal aorta and iliac artery was observed. Methods36 New zealand rabbits were divided randomly into 3 groups: tongxinluo group(16 rabbits); aspirin group(11 rabbits) and control group(9 rabbits). The rabbits were treated with herb tongxinluo 0.38g·kg-1 · d-1, aspirin 50mg·kg-1 · d -1 and 0.09% natrium chloride 10 ml · d-1 alternatively. The arterial injury model was made 1 week after taking the medicine and the injured segments were taken at 24 hours,1 week or 1 month after the procedure, then the samples were stained by hematoxylin and eosin. The thrombus formation and the neointimal hyperplasia of the injured arteries were observed under microscope. Results The arterial neointimal hyperplasia was seen in both abdominal aorta and iliac artery 24 hours and 7 days after the balloon injury in each group,which led to stenosis in 5%～40% of the arterial lumen, the neointimal hyperplasia was much more significant in 2 rabbits 1 month after the balloon injury. The ratio of the arteries with thrombosis in aspirin group was less than that in the other 2 groups, but the difference was not significant. The ratio of neointimal hyperplasia in tongxinluo group was significantly less than that in aspirin and control groups. Conclusion The balloon injured rabbit abdominal aorta and iliac artery appeare to be an ideal model in researching restenosis after percutaneous transluminar coronary angioplasty(PTCA) . Herbal Tongxinluo significantly inhibit the neointimal hyperplasia of the balloon injured rabbit peripheral arteries, which indicate that herbal Tongxinluo might be a promising medicine in preventing restenosis.
