OBJECTIVE: To observe the ultrastructural damages of mitochondrion and nucleus and the changes of caspase expression in neurons of hippocampal CA3 region in rats with status epilepticus induced by kainic acid. DESIGN: A randomized controlled study. SETTING: Department of Anesthesiology and Department of Neurology, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University. MATERIALS: Seventy-five adult male Wistar rats of 250-300 g, clean degree, were provided by the experimental animal center of Shandong University. Kainic acid was purchased from Sigma Company (USA); rabbit anti-rat polyclonal antibody caspase-3 from Santa Cruz Company (USA). METHODS: The experiments were carried out in the Department of Anesthesiology, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from October 2005 to February 2006. ① The 75 rats were randomly divided into experimental group (n =45) and control group (n =30). ② Model establishment, convulsion grading and the judging standards for status epilepticus: Rats in the experimental group were given intraperitoneal injection of kainic acid (10 mg/kg), and those in the control group were injected with saline of the same volume. The time of seizure was recorded and their behavioral manifestations were observed, and the seizure was terminated by intraperitoneal injection of diazepam (10 mg/kg). ③ Observation under electron microscope: At 3, 12 and 24 hours after status epilepticus respectively, bilateral hippocampal tissues were taken out, semithin sections of about 75 nm were prepared after fixation, dehydration and embedding, and then observed under H-800 transmission electron microscope. ④ Immunohistochemical detection: Bilateral hippocampi were removed at 3, 12 and 24 hours after status epilepticus respectively, the fixation, dehydration, transparence, wax immersion and embedding were performed, then serial sections of CA3 region were immunohistochemically determined by the SABC method. Leica QWinV3 image analytical software was applied, then the average number and average gray value of positive cells were calculated. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Results of observation under electron microscope, that of immunohistochemical staining of neurons in hippocampal CA3 region; Comparison of number of caspase-3 positive cells and gray value. RESULTS: All the 75 Wistar rats were involved in the analysis of results. ① Results of observation under electron microscope: At 3 hours after status epilepticus, swelling crista and membranous disintegration were observed under electron microscope. At 24 hours, obvious nuclear changes occurred, and manifested as the side-aggegation of chromatins. ② Results of immunohistochemical detection: In the experimental group, the number of caspase-3 positive cells at 3 hours after status epilepticus had no obvious difference as compared with that in the control group (P > 0.05); At 12 hours, the number and gray value of caspase-3 positive cells in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group (10.49±0.68 vs. 5.33±0.43; 45.57±2.27 vs. 19.79±0.33, P < 0.05), the same results were also observed at 24 hours (37.36±0.57 vs. 5.12±0.47; 115.24±1.22 vs. 18.73±0.42, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: In the rat models of status epilepticus induced by kainic acid, mitochondrial damage was earlier than the increase of caspase-3 expression and nuclear changes, which suggested that mitochondrion was the key link for the neuronal death after status epilepticus.展开更多

To begin with, the generalized flexibility matrix (GFM) proposed to solve the damage identification problem is recalled and a modal expansion method is introduced. Next, the objective function for iterative optimization process based on the GFM is formulated, and the Trust-Region algorithm is utilized to obtain the solution of the optimization problem for multiple damage cases. And then for computing the objective function gradient, the sensitivity analysis regarding design variables is derived. In addition, due to the spatial incompleteness, the influence of stiffness reduction and incomplete modal measurement data is discussed by means of two numerical examples with several damage cases. Finally, based on the computational results, it is evident that the presented approach provides good validity and reliability for the large and complicated engineering structures.展开更多

If we use a proper threshold to classify the grayscale of image, some independent holes will appear in the damaged regions. By using such statistical information as the number of holes in every region, or the ratio between the area of holes and that of the region, etc, the damaged buildings can be separated from the undamaged, thus automatic detection of damaged buildings can be realized. Based on these characteristics, a new method to auto- matically detect the damage buildings by using regional structure and statistical information of texture is presented in the paper. In order to test its validity, 1-m-resolution iKonos merged image of the 2001 Bhuj earthquake and grayscale aerial photos of the 1976 Tangshan earthquake are selected as two examples to automatically detect the damaged buildings. Satisfied results are obtained.展开更多
