Dissociation of absorptions of calcium and phosphate after successful cadaveric renal transplantation.

Calcium and phosphate absorptions were studied by radiotracer techniques in 30 patients after successful cadaveric renal transplantation, and results were compared with those in a group of normal subjects and in groups of patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). Both calcium and phosphate absorptions were impared in patients with CRF, including those receiving haemodialysis. Abnormalities of calcium absorption, however, seemed to occur earlier in the course of advanced renal failure than abnormalities in phosphate absorption. Calcium absorption improved dramatically after successful renal transplantation, while phosphate absorption remained the same. A dissociation between calcium and phosphate absorptions is not often seen clinically, and the mechanisms for it are unknown. Phosphate malabsorption may be a further contributing factor in the development of persistent hypophosphataemia after transplantation.     

Prevalence of Bordetella bronchiseptica in certain central Iowa

Bordetella bronchiseptica was isolated from 6 of 13 short-tailed shrews (Blarina brevicauda) and 1 of 47 house sparrows (Passer domesticus) trapped in the vicinity of a swine Bordetella rhinitis experimental area. The organism was found in four of 50 foxes (Vulpes fulva), 2 of 36 opossums (Didelphis marsupialis) and 1 of 37 raccoons (Procyon lotor) trapped in the Ames, Iowa area. This bacterium was not culturally isolated from 14 deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus), 64 house mice (Mus Musculus), 10 masked shrews (Sorex cinereus) and 54 starlings (Sturnus vulgaris).     

小麦倒春寒研究现状与进展

由于全球气候变暖,近年来小麦低温灾害事件频发,尤其是拔节-孕穗期的倒春寒灾害已成为制约小麦产量和品质的重要因素之一。本文综述了小麦倒春寒灾害的发生特点(鉴定与分级、时空特征),倒春寒对小麦生理特性(叶片、茎秆、穗部、根系)和产量、质量的影响,总结了抗倒春寒小麦育种、倒春寒危害的分子生物学机制及灾害的监测预警与风险评估等方面的研究进展,并从小麦抗倒春寒遗传基础、倒春寒危害小麦评价体系和防控技术体系等方面进行了展望,以期为抗倒春寒小麦品种的遗传改良和栽培调控新措施的建立提供理论依据。     

小麦族植物的分类现状及主要存在的问题

小麦族(Triticeae)是禾本科、早熟禾亚科中一个有重要经济价值、以多年生植物占优势的族,族内绝大多数种类是重要的粮食作物和畜牧业上的优良牧草,饲用价值极高,有些种类具有耐寒、耐旱、耐碱等特性,是农牧业上良种繁育、牧草利用的重要基因资源。但该族同时又是分类学上的一个疑难族,各学者对族内系统分类意见不一、争议颇大,尤其在族的界限、族下类群划分以及类群演化关系上问题较多,至今尚未解决。查阅了国内外分类学文献,探讨其分类差异以及存在问题,为充分开发利用中国丰富的小麦族植物资源提供理论依据。     

Ultrastructural study of metamorphosis in the freshwater bryozoan Plumatella fungosa (Bryozoa,Phylactolaemata)

Summary

At metamorphosis the attachment of the Plumatella larva to the substrate is effected by secretions from glandular cells in the apical plate, the leading pole during swimming. The larval mantle folds back and slides down towards the substrate. By ciliary activity an adhesive secretion is spread over the metamorphosing larva and the attachment area. Two polypides appear through the larval terminal opening. The mantle fold, together with gland cells, nerve cells, sensory cells, and muscle cells from the larva form a nutritive cell mass. Reduction of this nutritive cell mass is accomplished by autolysis and phagocytosis. An invaginated area of the nutritive cell mass is provided with a dense layer of microvilli, which seem to have an absorbtive function. The nutritive cell mass consisting of transitory larval tissues provides a significant source of nutrient for the developing polypide buds.

EMS对三个玉米自交系的诱变效应分析

EMS诱变玉米花粉是玉米化学诱变的主要技术。该研究以生产上3个常用的玉米自交系K305、21-ES、R08为材料,对其花粉用不同浓度的EMS诱变处理,探讨其EMS诱变的最佳浓度范围,明确其诱变效应。结果表明：3个自交系经过不同浓度的EMS诱变后,其结实率随着浓度的增大表现出减小的趋势,从其半致死剂量来看,EMS诱变花粉的适宜浓度范围自交系K305和R08均为0.67~1.0 mL?L-1,21-ES在1.67 mL?L-1附近。 M1代不同性状其变异幅度和变异系数与对照相比主要表现出增大的趋势,其不同性状的生物学效应在材料间表现不一致,表明性状在不同材料间对EMS的敏感性不一样,生育期表现为21-ES>K305>R08;主要株型性状表现为R08>21-ES>K305;主要雄穗性状K305和21-ES比R08敏感;主要果穗性状表现为21-ES>K305>R08。 M2代整体表现为变异谱扩大,其株高、穗位高和叶面积以及主要果穗性状的变异表现复杂,主要雄穗性状中除K305的M2株系雄穗分枝数呈双向变异外,其余M2株系整体偏向于雄穗变短,雄穗分枝数减小。该研究结果为后续研究和应用打下了基础。     

经皮穴位电刺激对老年髋关节置换术患者脑氧代谢以及术后认知功能、镇痛效果的影响

目的:探讨经皮穴位电刺激(TEAS)对老年髋关节置换术患者脑氧代谢以及术后认知功能、镇痛效果的影响。方法:选取2016年1月～2018年7月期间我院收治的行髋关节置换术患者91例为研究对象,将研究对象根据随机数字表法分为对照组(n=45)和研究组(n=46),对照组给予常规麻醉处理,研究组在对照组基础上给予TEAS,比较两组脑氧代谢、术后认知功能以及镇痛效果,记录两组术后的不良反应发生情况。结果:在降压开始后20 min(T1)、降压开始后40 min(T2)、停止降压后20 min(T3)时间点时,两组静脉血氧含量(Cjv O2)较降压前即刻(T0)时间点升高,且研究组高于对照组(P0.05),两组脑动-静脉血氧含量差(Da-jvO2)、脑氧摄取率(CERO2)较T0时间点降低,且研究组低于对照组(P0.05)。两组患者术后72h简易智能量表(MMSE)评分均较术前24h降低,但研究组高于对照组(P0.05),研究组术后认知功能障碍(POCD)发生率低于对照组(P0.05)。与术前比较,两组患者术后8h、术后24h、术后48h视觉疼痛模拟量表(VAS)评分均升高(P0.05),但研究组术后8h、术后24h、术后48h等时间点VAS评分均低于对照组(P0.05)。两组患者不良反应总发生率比较无差异(P0.05)。结论:TEAS对老年髋关节置换术后患者的镇痛效果确切,可有效改善脑氧代谢情况,提高术后认知功能,临床应用价值较高。
