Acupuncture and Moxibustion Therapy as a bridge between theoretical courses and clinical practice of acupuncture and moxibustion, is important. As the main part ofAcupuncture and Moxibustion Therapy, the training course deals with case analysis, inquiry training and simulation, clinical treatment ability training etc, in order to realize seamless docking classroom and clinical.

OBJECTIVE: To provide reference for the control of drug costs in China. METHODS: Present problems on drug were analyzed. The measures and effect of market mechanisms and policy interventions were analyzed referring to foreign experience on the control of drug expenses. RESULTS & CONCLUSION: Because drugs are a special kind of commodity, the combination and complementarity between market mechanisms and policy interventions can effectively control drug costs.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of treating refractory ascites by intermittent cycle ascites reinfusion.Methods Having 30 refractory ascites patients of both chronic renal failure and maintenance hemodialysis(MHD),treating them 102 times by intermittent close ascites reinfusion and synchronous hemodialysis,having reinfusion ascites 3000～5000ml each time,checking the change of serum creatinine(Scr),blood urea nitrogen(Bun),and serum albumin before and after hemodialysis(HD) by blood-test,and observing their temperature,weight,belly size,blood pressure,and pulse before and after treatment.Results After treatment,all the patients feel well,have good appetite,and have less swollen belly.The average treatment is 3.2 times.The table shows the patients' weight,belly size,serum albumin,serum creatinie and blood urea nitrogen(Bun) before and after treatment.The difference is obviously distinctive(P

Erhuang quzhi compounds is one of the protecting liver and inhibiting toxin prescriptions series summarized by Jinqi Yuan and other famous doctors of traditional Chinese medicine during the long-term clinical practice. It is very effective for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), but its mechanism is not clear. This research investigated mechanism of Erhuang quzhi granules (EQG) in the treatment of NAFLD. All the animal welfare and experimental procedures are in accordance with the regulations of the Animal Ethics Committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Shihezi University. Mouse models of NAFLD were established by feeding with methionine and choline deficient diet (MCDD) for five weeks. While feeding MCDD, the treatment groups were given EQG (16.25 g·kg^-1·d^-1) and atorvastatin (ATO, 7.20 mg·kg^-1·d^-1) by gavage. The effects of EQG on serum biochemical indices, liver pathological changes, and inflammatory cytokines in mice of NAFLD were investigated. Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR), immunocytochemistry (ICH) and Western blot assays were used to detect the levels of mRNA and protein associated with nuclear factor kappa B/Nod-like receptor protein 3 (NF-κB/NLRP3) in liver. The results showed that EQG significantly reduced the levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and improved the level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). The result of hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining showed that EQG reduced lipid deposition in livers of mice. Meanwhile, EQG notably decreased the levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-18 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and mRNA levels of NF-κB, NLRP3, IL-1β, TNF-α, down-regulated the expression of F4/80, IκB kinase β (IKKβ), NLRP3 and apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC) and inhibited the activation of NF-κB and cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-1 (caspase-1). These findings announced that EQG could improve NAFLD via NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway possibly, which provides a theoretical basis for the further development and utilization of EQG in clinic.

Some men over 50 may show the clinical symptoms similar to female menopause,so called male menopause syndrome.It discusses its concept,mechanism and appearance,TCM recognition and acupuncture to it as well.

Objective To evaluate the lithotripsy efficiency of a newly calculi anchoring forceps in vitro.Methods Compared the efficiency with or without calculi anchoring forceps in the circumstances imitate percutaneous nephrolithotomy.There are 24 calculus for each group in random selection.The lithotripsy was completed by one people.the time,energy and retained calculus were compared by T-test.Results When the energy expenditure reaches 2 kJ,the operating time was (4.7 ± 0.9) min in group 1 and (4.2 ± 0.9) min in group 2 (P ＞ 0.05).The removal calculus showed no differences between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).After the energy used over 2 k J,the operating time of the remained calculus were (4.5 ± 1.2) min in group 1 and (9.2 ± 2.6) min in group 2 respectively (P ＜ 0.05),and the energy consumed (1.7 ± 0.5) kJ and (2.6 ± 0.4) kJ respectively (P ＜ 0.05).Total energy consumed in group 1 and group2 was (3.7±0.5) kJ and (4.6±0.5) kJ (P＜0.05).And the cumulate time used was (9.2±1.7) min and (13.4 ±2.7) min in group 1 and group 2 respectively (P ＜0.05).Conclusions The calculi anchoring forceps can improve the efficiency of lithotripsy in vitro.The improvement was significant for the calculus whose diameter was smaller than lcm.

The urinary continence mechanism in the fetal and neonatal periods is the foundation of the development of continence function in the lower urinary tract (LUT).At present,it is rarely reported what is the fetus and newborns' LUT continence,and the domestic reviews about these knowledge is blank.The authors searched all the research reports about LUT continence and its mechanism in the fetal and neonatal period both in the human and animals,and reviewed the urinary continence of the fetus and newborns at first time at home,to fill the domestic blank of this field.

Pancreatic cancer is a commonly malignant gastrointestinal tumor with an obviously increasing incidence all over the world.Those patients without specific symptoms at early stage had mostly lost the opportunity of surgical therapy when pancreatic cancer was detected at advanced stage,and their prognosis is poor.Therefore,it is rather crucial to improve the early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.Tumor marker is a considerable tool for early tumor detection and screening.It will help to improve the diagnostic rate of early pancreatic cancer and promote the prognosis of pancreatic cancer if we could find out tumor markers and screen one or a group of pancreatic cancer tumor markers.
