Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of sectioning of the anterior part of the inferior glenohumeral ligament (a simulated Bankart lesion) on load-induced multidirectional glenohumeral motion. Nine fresh, intact cadaveric shoulders were tested on a special apparatus that constrained three rotations but allowed simultaneous measurement of anterior-posterior, superior-inferior, and medial-lateral translation. Coupled anterior-posterior and superior-posterior translations were recorded while anterior, posterior, superior, and inferior forces of fifty newtons were applied sequentially. Testing was done in three positions of humeral elevation in the scapular plane, in three positions of humeral rotation, and with an externally applied joint-compression load of twenty-two newtons. A liquid-metal strain-gauge was placed on the posterior band of the inferior glenohumeral ligament to assess concomitant posterior capsular strain during the various test conditions. All shoulders were tested intact and again after the inferior glenohumeral ligament and the labrum had been detached from the glenoid from just superior to the anterior band of the inferior glenohumeral ligament to a point just posterior to the infraglenoid tubercle. The simulated Bankart lesion resulted in selected increases in anterior translation at all positions of elevation, in posterior translation at 90 degrees of elevation, and in inferior translation at all positions of elevation. However, these increases were very small; the maximum mean increase in translation seen over-all was only 3.4 millimeters, which occurred during inferior translation at 45 degrees of elevation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
In order to study the effect of Baji Zibugao (BJZBG, a medicinal plaster mainly consisting of Radix Morindae Officinalis) on the endocrine functions of hypothyroid rabbits, we determined the serum levels of thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3), cAMP, cGMP and corticosterone in three groups of rabbits: total thyroidectomized and untreated (group I), total thyroidectomized and treated with BJZBG (group II) and controls (group III). The results showed: (1) The serum level of T4 in group I and II after operation was significantly lower than that before operation (P < 0.005), and the serum level of T3 in group I was also lower than that before operation (P < 0.02), but the change of T3 in group II after operation was not significant (P > 0.05); (2) The serum cAMP level in group I after operation decreased and the cGMP level increased (P < 0.025), but the changes of cAMP and cGMP level in group II after operation were not significant (P > 0.05), (3) The change of serum corticosterone level in group I or II after operation was not remarkable (P > 0.05).

Abstract
The longitudinal forces under which arterial prostheses are held in situ are of great importance. The tension caused by the longitudinal force may be one of the factors involved in the formation of anastomotic false aneurysms. In order to measure the changes in the longitudinal force at both proximal and distal end-to-end anastomoses over different periods of implantation, we devised an experimental study in which the changes in length of a warp-knitted polyester VP1200K (Vascutek Ltd., Inchinnan, Scotland) arterial prosthesis, used as a thoracic aorta substitute in the dog, were recorded photographically at implantation and removal. The longitudinal forces acting at the two sites were then calculated using a linear relationship between the longitudinal force and the changes in length of a virgin prosthesis, which was found experimentally in vitro using a computerized laser calibration system. One-tailed Student's t-test showed no significant difference between the length indicator values at the two anastomotic sites at different periods of implantation except during the 1-month period. Textile analysis of the explanted prostheses and histopathologic observations confirmed this similar behavior at the two anastomotic sites. These observations were contrary to the theoretic prediction regarding the effect of forces applied by drag and tissue ingrowth. Nevertheless, analysis of variance confirmed that there was no difference evident at the two sites between different implantation periods. These observations may explain why the formation of anastomotic false aneurysms is less common at end-to-end anastomoses.

Abstract
Since dietary salt loading enhances nitric oxide (NO) generation in the kidney, we investigated the hypothesis that changes in salt intake have specific effects on vascular resistance in the kidney mediated by the L-arginine-NO pathway. We contrasted changes in renal and hindquarter vascular resistances (RVR and HQVR) in anesthetized rats during intravenous infusions of graded doses of the NO synthase inhibitor NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME). Groups (N = 8 to 10) of rats were maintained on a high salt (HS) or low salt (LS) diet for two weeks. Compared to those on LS, rats on HS had a greater increase in mean arterial pressure (delta MAP; +32 +/- 4 vs. +22 +/- 3%; P = 0.05) and RVR (+160 +/- 17 vs. +83 +/- 10%; P < 0.005) and a greater fall in renal blood flow (delta RBF; -47 +/- 3 vs. -32 +/- 4%; P < 0.01); changes in HQVR were similar in the two groups. The enhanced RVR response to L-NAME in HS rats could not be ascribed to the higher renal perfusion pressure (RPP) since it persisted in rats whose RPP was controlled by adjustment of a suprarenal aortic clamp. Changes in RVR with an NO donor (SIN-1) were similar in HS and LS rats. L-NAME reduced plasma renin activity in both HS and LS rats. After inhibition of ACE with captopril, or of angiotensin II type I (AT1) receptor with losartan, the increase in RVR with L-NAME remained greater in HS than LS rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The phenotypic change of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in the media of pulmonary intraacinar arteries (IAA) was observed in rats during hypoxia. From 3 to 40 exposure days, pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) and right ventricular hypertrophy increased parallely. From 1 to 5 exposure days, SMCs still displayed the "contractile" phenotype, but the amount of intercellular collagen slightly increased. After 7 exposure days, some medial SMCs changed into the "fully" or "partially" "synthetic" phenotype with an excess of intercellular collagen. From 14 to 40 exposure days, other than some SMCs of partially "synthetic" phenotype, a great number of SMCs acquired the "contractile" phenotype characteristics, but the synthetic and secretive organelles and intercellular collagen were still more than those in the groups from 1 to 5 exposure days. Our results suggested that along with the prolongation of hypoxic exposure, the kinetic changes of SMC phenotype might not parallel with PAP change.

Abstract
Abnormal uptake of atherogenic substances and lipid infiltration have been believed to contribute to the localized genesis and development of atherosclerosis, as well as to late failures of synthetic arterial prostheses. To verify the theoretical prediction that accumulation of lipoproteins on the luminal surface of arterial walls occurs in the regions of disturbed flow, we have carried out an in vitro mass transfer experiment to test the effect of a pseudo steady recirculation flow on the uptake of 3H-7-cholesterol by the arterial wall at a surgically created stenosis. It was found that, as predicted by the theory, in the flow field of the stenosis the uptake of labeled cholesterol reached a maximum around the reattachment point of the vortex distal to the stenosis, where the wall shear stress was lowest (zero). This value of the highest uptake rate was almost twice the average, whereas the uptake level was at a minimum at the stenosis itself where the wall shear stress was highest. The lowest uptake was only 60% of the average. These results provide strong support to our hypothesis, based upon the theory that, in addition to the flow induced changes to the biologic function of endothelial cells, the disturbed flow with slow recirculation itself favors the accumulation of atherogenic lipoproteins at the blood-endothelium boundary, therefore playing an important role in the localized pathogenesis and development of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
A murine model of peritonitis was used to test the role of platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM-1/CD31) in acute inflammation. A monoclonal antibody (mAb) specific for murine PECAM-1 injected intravenously 4 h before the intraperitoneal injection of thioglycollate broth blocked leukocyte emigration into the peritoneal cavity for up to 48 h. This block was particularly evident for neutrophils. Control mAb, including one that bound to murine CD18 without blocking its function, failed to block emigration when used at the same or higher concentrations. The decreased emigration seen with the anti-PECAM-1 antibody was not due to neutropenia or neutrophil sequestration in the lung, spleen, or other organs; peripheral blood leukocyte counts were not diminished in these mice. In the mesenteric venules of the mice treated with anti-PECAM-1 mAb, leukocytes were frequently seen in association with the luminal surface of the vessel, but did not appear to emigrate. Thus, the requirement for PECAM-1 in the transendothelial migration of leukocytes previously seen in an in vitro model holds true in this in vivo model of acute inflammation.

Abstract
To determine the effect of an externally applied joint-compressive load and a quadriceps muscle force on knee motion, we tested nine intact cadaveric knees and four knees after sectioning of the anterior cruciate ligament. Anteroposterior translation was measured at 0 degrees, 15 degrees, 30 degrees, 45 degrees, and 90 degrees of knee flexion after the application of an anteroposterior force of 100 N, a joint-compressive load of 0, 111, 222, 333, or 444 N, and a quadriceps force of 0 or 133 N. Both a joint-compressive load and a quadriceps force significantly decreased total anteroposterior translation by as much as 50% to 66% in intact knees and 42% to 71% in anterior cruciate ligament-sectioned knees. A substantial anterior translation was also found with the application of a joint-compressive load or a quadriceps force and no anterior force. We termed this translation an anterior neutral-position shift. The anterior neutral-position shift was significantly greater in the ligament-sectioned knees compared with the intact knees, so much so that at flexion angles greater than 15 degrees, the application of a 100-N posterior force could not translate the tibia to the most anterior position achieved in the intact knee with a 100-N anterior force.

Abstract
To study the pathophysiological relation between Type A behavioral pattern and coronary artery disease, we analyzed the Type A behavioral pattern, serum triglycerides (TG), cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLc), and TXB2, 6-keto-PGF1 alpha in 60 patients with coronary artery disease and 60 age-sex-matched healthy subjects. All of them had normal blood pressure. The results showed Type A behavioral pattern was more prevalent than Type B behavioral pattern in coronary artery diseased patients and the reverse was true in the controlled subjects (P < 0.025); TG, TC and TXB2/6-keto-PGF1 alpha ratio increased significantly in Type A behavioral pattern compared with Type B behavioral patients, but HDLc/(TC+TG) and the level of HDLc decreased significantly in the Type A behavioral pattern than in the Type B behavioral pattern (P < 0.05). The TG, TC increased significantly and 6-keto-PGF1 alpha HDLc decreased significantly in the coronary artery diseased patients (P < 0.05). However, the ratio of TXB2/6-keto-PGF1 alpha was inversely related to HDLc/(TC+TG) among the coronary artery diseased patients. The results of this cross-sectional study suggest that coronary artery disease is associated with Type A behavioral pattern through the metabolism of lipids and prostaglandins in various ways.

Abstract
The mechanism of hypoxic moderation of systemic systolic blood pressure was investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Male SHR rats were divided into hypoxic (H, 5000 m for 15 d) and normoxic (N) groups. The systemic blood pressure of SHR-H (24.9 +/- 1.2 kPa) was found to be 3 kPa lower than that in SHR-N (27.0 +/- 1.3 kPa) (P < 0.05). This protective effect may have been related to the adaptive changes in vascular reactivity which manifested as an increase in the relaxation response of the aorta to ACh (P < 0.01) and a drop in its contraction in response to 5-HT (P < 0.05) following hypoxic exposure. The hypoxic moderating effect against the development of systemic hypertension may have also been related to the increased plasma levels of ANP observed.

Abstract
Platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM-1; CD31) is crucial to the process of leukocyte transmigration through intercellular junctions of vascular endothelial cells. A monoclonal antibody to PECAM, or recombinant soluble PECAM, blocks transendothelial migration of monocytes by 70-90%. Pretreating either the monocytes or the endothelial junctions with antibody blocks transmigration. If the endothelium is first activated by cytokines, anti-PECAM antibody or soluble recombinant PECAM again block transmigration of both monocytes and neutrophils. Anti-PECAM does not block chemotaxis of either cell type. Light and electron microscopy reveal that leukocytes blocked in transmigration remain tightly bound to the apical surface of the endothelial cell, precisely over the intercellular junction. Thus, the process of leukocyte emigration can be dissected into three successive stages: rolling, mediated by the selectin class of adhesion molecules; tight adhesion, mediated by the leukocyte integrins and their endothelial cell counter-receptors; and now transmigration, which, based on these studies, requires PECAM-1.

Abstract
The renal blood flow (RBF) of patients with polycythemia rubra vera is increased despite the high hematocrit (Hct) which elevates the whole blood viscosity. Since blood viscosity determines the shear force on the endothelium which is a major stimulus to nitric oxide (NO) release, we investigated the hypothesis that renal vasodilation during erythropoietin-induced erythrocytosis is mediated by the L-arginine-NO pathway. Groups of Sprague-Dawley rats received thrice weekly injections of erythropoietin (E) for two to five weeks; responses were contrasted with normal rats (N) which received sham injections. The first group was studied after five weeks of erythropoietin injections which led to sharp increases in Hct (E: 72 +/- 3 vs. N: 44 +/- 1%) and mean arterial pressure (MAP: 126 +/- 3 vs. 107 +/- 3 mm Hg). These rats had an elevated basal RBF whether measured by the clearance and renal extraction of PAH or by a transit-time renal blood flow meter. Subsequent groups were studied after two to three weeks of erythropoietin which raised the Hct more modestly to 59 +/- 2%. In this group, the basal MAP was similar in E and N rats. Graded doses of the NO synthase inhibitor, N omega-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMA) led to a steeper rise in MAP in E than N; at the highest doses, the MAP had increased by 36 +/- 2 in E and 23 +/- 3 mm Hg in N (P < 0.01).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Arterial bifurcations and surgically created junctions at anastomoses are places where blood flow may be disturbed and slow recirculation may occur. To address the hypothesis that such disturbances in flow may result in atherogenesis, the transfer of atherogenic substances from vessel wall to flowing blood was studied theoretically using a two dimensional T-junction model. Calculations showed that the transfer of atherogenic substances from vessel wall into flowing blood was suppressed in the two regions of disturbed flow, one in the main vessel, the other in the subsidiary vessel. The lowest release rates were at the points of flow separation and were found to be much lower than those in the undisturbed flow regions. Therefore, our mathematical model predicts that locally disturbed blood flows at arterial bifurcations and surgically created junctions are responsible for two distinct phenomena. First, they provide favorable conditions for the accumulation of LDL at the luminal surface, thus increasing the potential for lipid infiltration into the vessel wall, and second, they impair the transfer into blood of atherogenic substances accumulated in the vessel wall. Such mass transfer abnormalities may account for atherogenesis and late failures of arterial grafts at these sites.

Abstract
The purpose of this investigation was to measure inferior translation in the intact and vented shoulder in different positions of abduction and rotation. Fifteen shoulders from adult cadavers were tested before and after venting of the joint capsule on an apparatus that permitted unconstrained translation when a 50 N inferior force was applied to the humeral shaft. The greatest inferior translation in the intact shoulder occurred at 45° abduction in neutral rotation. Venting the capsule significantly increased inferior translation in all positions but 45° abduction, and the greatest effect was seen at 0° glenohumeral abduction in neutral rotation. The so-called "sulcus sign" is the result of intraarficular vacuum effect and capsular laxity. Venting the capsule results in a significant increase in inferior translation. This is an important effect to consider during procedures for repairing instability of the shoulder, because failure to appreciate the normal "play" in inferior glenohumeral translation might lead the surgeon to believe that perceived laxity represents actual instability.

Abstract
Fifty-seven cadaveric renal transplantations in fifty-five cases were analysed of them, thirty cases were prepared by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD group); twenty-seven transplantations in twenty-five cases were prepared by hemodialysis (HD group). Our data show that there is no significant difference in the survival duration between CAPD group and HD group; that there is also no significant difference in the survival duration between the two groups treated with the same immunosuppressive drugs, and that patients prepared by CAPD have a low risk of peritonitis after transplantation. It is better not to remove the Tenckhoff catheter until the graft function is stable so that it can be used for the transient peritoneal dialysis in the case of the insult of graft function or for the sampling of the peritoneal effusion for diagnosis of suspectable peritonitis after renal transplantation.

Abstract
Fifty female rats were used in the experiment. With rotation model, Yunfujing was shown to inhibit nystagmic response of rats. The inhibitory effect was 20-30 times stronger than that of Mihuanjun. In Coriolis test, the tolerance time of vestibular stimulative response was taken as a parameter for judging drug efficacy in 32 male volunteers. Following oral administration of Yunfujing at a dose of 400 mg, the tolerance time of vestibular stimulative response was prolonged significantly from 411.34 to 759.63 s. In the mean time, no changes of blood pressure and pulse were observed in the treated group.

Abstract
The dynamic changes in pulmonary vascular tone and reactivity of rats exposed to chronic hypobaric hypoxia were studied with cardiac catheterization and on perfusing isolated lung-preparations. It was found that their greatest rising appeared earlier than that of the pulmonary arterial pressure, and improving heart function might delay the development of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension. Whenever hypoxia was slight in extent, a compensatory increase in cardiac function was seen on the right side with no change in left heart. When hypoxia became more severe, an impairment of heart function occurred predominantly on the left side with or without decrease in the function of the right heart.

Abstract
Inserting an array of nearly 100 similar lenses into a common focal system, the uniformity of the illumination of a target can evidently be improved without being affected by the near-field distribution of laser beams. We report here geometrical- and physical-optics analyses of the lens array and compare them with the experimental results.
