Abstract
In lightly pentobarbital-anesthetized and acutely-prepared rats, electrical stimulation within the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus consistently inhibited the tail-flick responses to noxious heating of the tail. The opioid receptor antagonist, naloxone hydrochloride applied intrathecally at the lumbar level, at dose of 20 micrograms, reversed this inhibition without affecting the baseline pain threshold. The same dose of naloxone, applied to the cervical subarachnoid space, had no effect on the inhibitory modulation by the arcuate nucleus. Naloxone, at doses 2- to 4-fold greater than the intrathecal dose, did not modify the suppression of the tail-flick, when given systemically. With the doses ranging from 5 to 40 micrograms, naloxone showed a dose-dependent blockade of the inhibition produced by stimulation of the arcuate nucleus. These results indicate that an endogenous opioid system is most likely involved in the descending inhibition of spinal nociceptive reflexes, resulting from stimulation of the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus.

Abstract
In external fixation, bone screw loosening still presents a major clinical problem. For this study, the design factors influencing the mechanics of the bone-screw interface were analysed and various experimental screws designed with the intention of maximizing the strength and stiffness of the inserted screw. Push-in, pull-out and bending tests were then carried out on the three experimental screws, and on two commercially available screws in both a synthetic material and in cadaveric bone; photoelastic tests on different screw threadforms were also performed. The results of the push-in and pull-out tests indicate that both the screw threadform and cutting head have a significant effect on the holding strength of the screw. The photoelastic tests show that most of the applied load is distributed over the first few threads closest to the load, and that the area between the thread crests is subjected to high shear stresses.

Abstract
1. Responses to noradrenaline were studied in isolated rabbit ear artery cells with the nystatin method of whole-cell patch-clamp recording. With this technique it was possible to obtain reproducible responses to noradrenaline which was not possible with traditional whole-cell recording. 2. With NaCl as the major constituent of the bathing solution (potassium-free pipette and external solutions) the reversal potential (Er) of the noradrenaline-evoked current was about 0 mV. When external chloride was replaced by thiocyanate, iodide, nitrate and bromide, Er was shifted to more negative potentials which indicates that a chloride conductance increase contributes to the current activated by noradrenaline. 3. When sodium was substituted by Tris, N-methyl-D-glucamine, choline or barium, Er of the noradrenaline-evoked current did not alter. This result suggests that a cation conductance is not implicated in the response to noradrenaline recorded with the nystatin method of whole-cell recording. 4. The chloride current activated by noradrenaline was blocked by the selective alpha 1-adrenoceptor antagonist prazosin but was not affected by the alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonist yohimbine. 5. When cells were exposed to zero calcium bathing solutions the amplitude of the current elicited by noradrenaline was unaffected when measured within 1-2 min in zero calcium conditions. Continued exposure to 0 Ca + 1 mM-EGTA solution reversibly abolished the chloride current to noradrenaline. 6. In the presence of caffeine, which releases Ca2+ from internal stores and itself induced an inward current (at a holding potential of -50 mV), noradrenaline did not elicit a current. These data suggest that the chloride current evoked by noradrenaline results from an increase in intracellular concentration of calcium derived from internal stores. 7. The chloride channel blocking agents 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid (DIDS; 0.5 mM) and furosemide (0.5 mM) produced partial reduction of the noradrenaline-evoked chloride current whereas 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid (SITS), anthracene-9-carboxylic acid (A-9-C) and picrotoxin were ineffective in concentrations of up to 0.5 mM. However DIDS and furosemide were non-selective blockers as both agents were more effective against the adenosine triphosphate-induced cation current.

Abstract
The structural and functional properties of the nucleocapsid (NC) protein of the avian myeloblastosis virus were examined by steady-state fluorescence and fluorescence anisotropy measurements of the complex between the NC and the extrinsic fluorophore 4,4'-bis(phenylamino)(1,1'-binaphthalene)-5,5'-disulfonic acid (bis-ANS). The intrinsic fluorescence of bis-ANS is enhanced many fold upon forming a complex with the NC. Between 2 and 10 molecules of bis-ANS bind strongly to the NC, with an overall Kd of less than 10(-6) M. The emission of bis-ANS in the complex can also be induced by excitation at 298 nm, indicating that energy is transferred from Trp 80, the sole tryptophan in the NC protein, to bis-ANS. The energy transferred between the Trp 80 and bis-ANS was analyzed to yield a calculated distance of separation between these fluorophores of 28 +/- 3 A; thus, Trp 80 is well removed from the nearest bound bis-ANS. The fluorescence emission of bis-ANS in the NC.bis-ANS complex is efficiently quenched by added salts and by poly(A), suggesting that salt (presumably anions), nucleic acid, and bis-ANS bind to the same, positively charged region on the NC protein. A site size of six nucleotides was determined for nucleic acid binding to the NC protein, with an estimated Kd of less than 10(-6) M. Salt (anion) binding is strong, but nonspecific, with a Kapp of 4 mM, raising the possibility that anion binding to the NC protein might regulate the interaction of the NC with viral RNA inside the host cell.

Abstract
Focal electrical stimulation of the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARH) for 5 min (1 session) produced a marked elevation of tail flick latency (TFL) to noxious heat in the pentobarbital-anesthetized rat. Repeated stimulation for a total of 11 sessions at 30 min intervals resulted in a gradual decline in the hypoalgesic action, and this tolerance may last for 7 days. Tolerance to the ARH analgesic stimulation reduced the analgesia produced by low (2 Hz) but not high (100 Hz) frequency electroacupuncture (EA); and tolerance to low frequency EA analgesia attenuated the ARH stimulation-produced analgesia without affecting high frequency EA analgesia. Alternatively, rats tolerant to high-frequency EA analgesia were still sensitive to either the ARH or low-frequency EA stimulation. These results suggest that the ARH stimulation and low-frequency EA administration produced analgesia via a common neural mechanism, supporting our hypothesis put forward previously that the ARH plays an important role in mediating low- but not high-frequency EA analgesia.

Abstract
The quantity extracted, constituents and their contents in essential oil from Fructus Aurantii were obviously influenced by the method of disintegration. Among stamp breaking in water, crusher-run and miling, stamp breaking in water is the best method. The advantage of this method lies in higher percentage recovery of the oil and smaller loss in volatilization.

Abstract
The correlation between the presence of sialomucins at the resection margin identified by high iron diamine-alcian blue (HID-AB) histochemical stain and the subsequent anastomotic recurrence of the tumor was studied retrospectively in 64 rectal cancer patients at the stage of Dukes' B who underwent radical anterior resection. It was found that fourteen of 27 patients (51.9%) with a sialomucins predominant pattern at either resection margin suffered from tumour recurrence compared with 4 of 37 patients (10.8%) with a sulphomucin predominant pattern (P less than 0.001). Abnormal mucus production at the resection margin in patients treated for rectal carcinoma appears to identify those with a higher risk of anastomotic recurrence.

Abstract
Electrolytic, kainic acid or sham lesions were made in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARH) in female Wistar rats to investigate the putative role of the ARH in the organization of low (2 Hz) or high (100 Hz) frequency electroacupuncture (EA) analgesia. Both electrolytic and chemical lesions lead to an almost total suppression of the low frequency EA analgesia as measured 4 and 6 days following the surgical intervention, leaving high frequency EA analgesia unaffected. In sham-operated animals, the antinociceptive effect induced by low or high frequency EA was essentially intact. These data indicate that neurones of the ARH most likely play an important role in mediating low, but not high frequency EA analgesia.

Abstract
Transections at two levels of the forebrain were undertaken in the rat to investigate the neural structures indispensable for the mediation of tail flick reflex suppression (TFRS) induced by low (2 Hz) and high (100 Hz) frequency electroacupuncture (EA) stimulation. Removal of the telencephalic structures did not affect TFRS produced by high frequency EA, although a mild and temporal attenuation was observed for low frequency EA-induced TFRS. Ablation of the whole forebrain (the telencephalon and diencephalon) resulted in a total abolishment of 2-Hz EA effect as measured 5, 24 and 72 h after surgery. In the meantime there was a moderate attenuation (-32.8%, P less than 0.05) of 100-Hz EA effect, which appeared 5 h after the operation and recovered after 24 h. The results indicate that (1) high frequency EA effect persisted in animals devoid of the whole forebrain structures; (2) an intact diencephalon is indispensable for the neural circuitry controlling low frequency EA-induced TFRS.

Abstract
One hundred and twelve new cases with Graves' disease were treated by tapazole for 6 months and followed-up for another 12 months in a prospective study. One hundred and eleven cases completed the whole course of study, and only one failed to be followed up. The results of the follow-up for 12 mon showed that the remission rate was 41.4% (46/111) and relapse rate was 58.6% (65/111). The present study indicated that the remission or relapse was related with serum levels of T3 before treatment, shrank goiter and disappearance of goiter bruit during the treatment as well as thyroid suppression rate, but not related to sex, age, period of illness before therapy or severity of the disease. It is suggested that a 6-mon antithyroid drug therapy instead of traditional long term therapy may be suitable for those patients who are with a reduced goiter and disappeared goiter bruit during the antithyroid therapy, and suppressible thyroid up-take by T3 and whose serum levels of T3 before treatment are not very high. So the patients may benefit from the short-term therapy. They are not only able to obtain a prolonged remission but also save time and money.

Abstract
The histochemical changes in mucin at the postoperative resection margins in carcinoma of the upper and middle third of the rectum after anterior resection were studied retrospectively in 52 patients. The sialomucinous change was most likely to occur at the intestinal margins of those patients who had tumour recurrence (P less than 0.001). The histological types of tumour, degree of differentiation, Dukes' stages and their distance from the anal verge were virtually the same in patients with and without tumour recurrence. By using high iron diamine-alcian blue staining technique we identified patients with higher risk conditions of tumour recurrence after anterior resection. This technique should increase the likelihood of a cure for patients with recurrent carcinoma of the rectum after anterior resection.

Abstract
Suppression of the tail flick response to noxious heat and paw withdrawal response to noxious pressure were produced by electrical stimulation of arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARH) in pentobarbital anesthetized rats. Systemic administration of naloxone (2 mg/kg) greatly antagonized the ARH stimulation-produced inhibition of both algesic reflexes. The thresholds of stimulation for inhibition of two spinal nociceptive reflexes in the lightly anesthetized state were not significantly different from the thresholds of stimulation at the same ARH sites in the awake state in the same animals. These findings provide evidence establishing the (1) usefulness of the anesthetized rat model for investigation of antinociceptive mechanisms; (2) the involvement of endogenous opioid mechanisms in mediating ARH stimulation-produced analgesia.

Abstract
Rhizomes of five identified plants of the PARIS species, Liliaceae, and Rhizoma Paridis which are sold as a crude drug named "Zao Xiu", "Qiyeyizhihua" or other names in nine different markets in China were tested for their effects on cultured cardiomyocytes. In the standard medium, eight methanol extracts out of sixteen at a concentration of 0.2 mg/ml stopped the spontaneous beating of myocardial cell sheets, but these extracts significantly increased the beating rate when the concentration was reduced to one half. In the culture medium with a low calcium concentration, 0.5 mM, the beating rate of the cells decreased to about 60% of that of the control in the standard medium. The addition of five of the extracts to the low calcium medium at a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml caused a stop of cell beating, but the other extracts increased beating rate at least by 10%. Three steroidal glycosides isolated from the rhizomes of P. VIETNAMENSIS (Takht.) H. Li also stimulated cell beating. Among them, diosgenin-3- O-alpha- L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2) - (alpha- L-arabinofuranosyl-(1-->4))- D-glucopranoside (compound 1) was the most effective stimulant for cell beating as well as calcium uptake by the myocardial cells.

Abstract
Southern blot analysis of neuroblastoma (NB) cell DNA from 52 patients (58 samples) allowed the detection of an N-myc amplification on three of the 13 BM samples and three of 13 tumor samples at diagnosis, on two of 17 tumor samples taken after induction therapy, on three of seven BM samples and two of the five local tumor samples taken after relapse. N-myc was amplified in two of the 15 patients with stage I to III NB and in 10 of the 36 patients with stage IV neuroblastoma over 1 year of age. Conclusions from the analysis are as follows: first tumor samples obtained on previously treated patients are histologically modified and detection of N-myc amplification is not accurate; consequently N-myc amplification must be defined at diagnosis. Surgical biopsies of the primary tumors can, however, be delayed and malignant cells obtained by ultrasound-guided punctures or analyzed on bone marrow samples if they represent more than 50% of the total population. Second, any attempt to define the prognostic value must be performed on a group of patients treated with a new aggressive protocol of chemotherapy; it will require a multiparametric analysis including, in particular, results of an extensive clinical staging at diagnosis and histological criteria.
