The eight-pellet injector was installed on HL-1M. A reliable monitordetector and camera system was set up to take initial pellet photographs and measure the initial pellet speed and size. High fuelling efficiency of 60 % - 100 % and a density profile with a peaking factor of 1.8 - 2.0 were obtained. The maximum density close to 10^14/cm^3 in HL-1M was achieved with newly optimized combined fuelling techniques. Two typical models of pellet ablation have been utilized for simulative calculation of the ablation rates in HL-1M. In comparison with the distribution of the measured Hα emission intensity from the digital data of the CCD camera, the experimental result seems more optimistic for core fuelling than theoretical predictions by the two models. The safety factor profile q（r） has been extracted from the information provided by the CCD camera during the pellet injection. The reliability of the measured results depends mainly on the calibration of the imaging space position. Based on the calibration, the measured q-profile becomes more reasonable than those published previously for the same shot number and same photograph.展开更多

The experimental results show that the flux injection method can realize the melt treatment of A1-7%Si alloy. In purification, the flux injection method is superior to the standard lance degassing method. For the injection flux, the purifier Na2SiF6 is more powerful than Na3A1F6, the modifiers SrCl2, and R.E. Cl3 are quick acting, like NaF, but less powerful, the grain refiner containing K2TiF6 and KBF4 with Ti/B=1 is more potent than that with Ti/B=5. The analytical results indicate that the mass-transfer rate for the flux injection method is much higher than that for the conventional method .展开更多

TLJN has been shown to protect primary cultured hippocampal neurons. How-ever, its mechanism of action remains unclear. In the present study, primary cultured hippocampal neurons treated with Aβ1-42 （10 μmol/L） signiifcantly increased the release of lactate dehydroge-nase, which was markedly reduced by TLJN （2 μL/mL）, speciifcally by the component geniposide （26 μmol/L）, but not ginsenoside Rg1 （2.5 μmol/L）. hTe estrogen receptor inhibitor, ICI182780 （1 μmol/L）, did not block TLJN-or geniposide-mediated decrease of lactate dehydrogenase under Aβ1-42-exposed conditions. However, the phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase or mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway inhibitor, LY294002 （50 μmol/L） or U0126 （10 μmol/L）, respectively blo cked the decrease of lactate dehydrogenase mediated by TLJN or geniposide. hTerefore, these results suggest that the non-classical estrogen pathway （i.e., phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase or mitogen-activated protein kinase） is involved in the neuroprotective effect of TLJN, speciifcally its component, geniposide, against Aβ1-42-mediated cell death in primary cultured hippocampal neurons.展开更多

Methods： Sixty-eight patients with mild or moderate bronchial asthma were assigned to two groups equally according to their sequence number, odd or even. The conventional treatment was administered to both groups, and LI was given to the treatment group by ultrasonic spray inhalation twice a day but not to the control group. The therapeutic course for all was 2 weeks. Further, 30 healthy subjects who had no history of smoking were enrolled as the normal control group. The clinical condition scores, frequency of attacks and dosage of Terbutaline inhaled were scored and recorded on the first day of hospitalization （before treatment） and after treatment. At the same time, the indexes of lung function, including forced expiratory volume in one second （FEV1）, forced expiratory volume in one second to forced vital capacity ratio （FEV1%） and the peak expiratory flow （PEF） were determined before treatment. The levels of IL-4 and IFN--γ in peripheral blood were detected by ELISA before and after treatment, and compared with that of the healthy control group. Results： After treatment, the clinical condition scores were found to be lower, indexes of lung function were elevated, but serum level of IL-4 and ratio of IL-4/IFN-γwere reduced in both groups, showing significant differences as compared to those before treatment （P〈0.05）. However, the changes in all the indexes were more significant in the treatment group than in the control group, also showing statistical significance （P〈0.05）. No significant difference was revealed when IFN--γ levels were compared before and after treatment in both groups, though a lowering trend could be seen, significant difference could not be found in the comparison of IFN--γ levels between groups after treatment （P〉0.05）. Conclusion： LI shows good clinical effect in treating bronchial asthma, and its mechanism might be related to the suppression of the synthesis of IL-4, thus leading to the inhibition of TH2 cell subset preponderant response and immune equilibrium regulation.展开更多

All patients in two groups received conventional cluster treatment, the patients in treatment group additional received Xuebijing injection dissolved in0.9% sodium chloride injection, and the patients in control group received the same amount of 0.9%sodium chloride injection. At the beginning of treatment and 3, 7 and 10-day after treatment, lab-oratory indicators of cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTnI),N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-pro BNP) and procalcitonin(PCT) were respectively tested in venous blood. The patient's length of stay in Intensive Care Unit(ICU) and the mortality in 28 days were recorded.RESULTS: At 3, 7 and 10-day after treatment, the improvements of c Tn I, NT-pro BNP and PCT in treatment group were better than those in control group, and the differences were statistically significant(P < 0.05). The mortality of treatment group in28 days was not significantly different from that of control group(P > 0.05). The ICU length of stay of treatment group was shorter than that of control group(P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: Xuebijing injection could improve the levels of c Tn I, NT-pro BNP and PCT in patients with septic myocardial injury.and it had a protective effect on myocardial injury.展开更多
