In China, cooking oil fume is a kind of indoor air pollutant that is ubiquitous. With the development of catering trade, the pollution of cooking oil fume is becoming more and more severe. The results of animal experiments showed that cooking oil fume could damage the genetic substance and cause cancer. The results from the epidemiological studies indicated that cooking oil fume could induce lipid peroxidation and change the pulmonary and immunologic functions, cause chromosome damage and increase the risk of lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the changes of blood coagulation index before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and the chemotherapeutic efficacy in patients with breast cancer.Methods Ninety patients with breast cancer were selected,and detected the changes of blood coagulation index before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (TAC regimen),and the relationship between blood coagulation index and the chemotherapeutic efficacy were analyzed.Results The levels of fibrinogen (Fib),platelet count (PLT) after chemotherapy were significantly higher than those before chemotherapy [(3.42 ±0.50) g/L vs.(2.44 ±0.46) g/L,(267.83 ±61.34) × 109/L vs.(174.18 ±48.65) × 109/L] (P ＜ 0.01),D-dimer (D-D) was significantly lower than that before chemotherapy [(176.32 ± 101.41) mg/L vs.(214.55 ± 106.34) mg/L] (P ＜ 0.01).The remaining indicators before and after chemotherapy had no significant differences (P ＞ 0.05).The level of D-D in 68 cases was reduced after chemotherapy,the effective chemotherapy in 53 cases (77.9％,53/68),ineffective in 15 cases (22.1％,15/68);the level of D-D in 22 cases was increased after chemotherapy,the effective chemotherapy in 9 cases (40.9％,9/22),ineffective in 13 cases (59.1％,13/22),the difference was statistically significant (P=0.000).The level of PLT in 10 cases was reduced after chemotherapy,the effective chemotherapy in 3 cases(3/10),ineffective in 7 cases (7/10);the level of PLT in 80 cases was increased after chemotherapy,the effective chemotherapy in 59 cases (73.8％,59/80),ineffective in 21 cases (26.3％,21/80),the difference was statistically significant (P=0.044).Conclusions The Fib and PLT increase while the D-D decreases after chemotherapy,so it is necessary to monitor Fib,PLT,D-D level during chemotherapy.The D-D and PLT are effective indexes in evaluating curative effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer.

Objective To optimize the technology of extracting Paeoniflorin and Puerarin from Tongqing Granules. Methods The experiment used the orthogonal experimental design (4 factors and 3 levels) with the shift-rate of Paeoniflorin and Puerarin as experimental criterion in screening the factors affecting the technology of extracting Tongqing Granules. Results All the 3 factors designed in the orthogonal experiment non-signifantly affected the extracting technology. In consideration of the industrial practice, the best condition of extracting the constituents from Tongqing Granules was decided:water extraction for 3 times, extracting with 12 fold water for 1 hours for the first time, with 5 fold water for 0.5 hours for the second time, and with 5 fold water for 0.5 hour for the third time. Conclusion The condition is the optimized technology of extracting Paeoniflorin and Puerarin from Tongqing Granules.

The academic origin and characteristics of medical families of acupuncture-moxibustion in northern Zhejiang Province were explored in this paper. With acupuncture-moxibustion characteristic of medical families in northern Zhejiang Province such as the LING (see text), the YAN (see text), the SHI (see text) and the SHENG (see text) analyzed and arranged, it was found out that taking the Internal Canon of Medicine as theory basis, their academic thoughts comprehensively absorbed acupuncture-moxibustion theories in all ages, and they continuously made innovations through constant practices, resulting in academic thoughts that focusing on application of acupuncture-moxibustion in clinic, using moxibustion for deficient illness and adopting acupuncture-moxibustion and Chinese herbs for severe and acute patients. The academic thoughts of medical families of acupuncture and moxibustion in northern Zhejiang Province are featured by unique acupoint selection and ma nipulation, thorough moxibustion methods and combined application of Chinese herbs and acupuncture-moxibustion, which is a clinical system of diagnosis and treatment with typical Jiangnan features.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of atopic status on interleukin-4 (IL-4),interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and interleukin-5 (IL-5) levels in serum of children wih mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection,and to investigate the relation between these cytokines and disease severity.MethodsNinety-five children with MP infection were enrolled in our study,which were divided into atopic group and non-atopic group,mild group and severe group,normal-TIgE group and high-TlgE group.Meanwhile,38 normal children were enrolled as normal control group.The serum levels of IL-4,IFN-γ and IL-5 were detected by ELISA method.Results(1) Thelevels of serum IL-4 (pg/ml),IFN-γ (pg/ml) and IL-5 (pg/ml) in MP infection group[2.82(2.12,7.13 ),39.70(18.82,181.42),16.12( 10.35,28.07 ) ] were higher than those in normal control group [ 1.17(1.05,1.60),13.25(8.77,22.56),9.72(6.11,12.39) ] ( P＜0.05 ).(2) Serum IL-5 levels in atopic group [ 15.55 (10.35,22.61 ) ],severe group [ 15.98 ( 11.95,26.58 ) ] and high-TlgE group [ 16.55( 10.35,23.65 ) ] were much higher than those in normal control group( P＜0.05 ).Rather than the serum IL-5 levels of atopic group,mild group and normal TIgE group showed no significant difference compared with the normal control group( P＞0.05 ).(3) No significant differences of serum IL-4,IFN-γ,andIL-4/IFN-γ were found between atopic group and non-atopic group,mild group and severe group,normalTIgE group and high-TIgE ( P＞0.05 ).ConclusionIL-4,IFN-γand IL-5 are involved in the pathogenesis of MP infection,furthermore,atopic status of the host may lead to the increase of serum IL-5,which may enhance the progress of the disease.

Objective To investigate the the effect and interaction of morphine dependence model and naloxone doses on withdrawal intensity. Methods To observe the withdrawal signs and weight loss in two kinds of morphine dependent rats after the precipitating by naloxone of different doses an devaluate the withdrawal intensity.Results Morphine dependence were successfully induced in two ways.There was no significant difference of withdrawal intensity in five-day model(total morphine dose 380mg.kg－1) after precipitating by naloxone of 2mg.kg－1 and 4mg.kg－1（P＞0.05）. Withdrawal intensity of twelve-day model(total morphine dose 1365mg.kg－1)increased significantly with the increase of naloxone dose（P＜0.01）,but it was more intensive significantly than five-day model only after 4mg.kg－1 dose of naloxone. Conclusion Appropriate method should be used to induce morphine dependence and these experimental factors should be combined in assessment of withdrawal intensity.

The responsibility system of attending doctors plays a positive role in raising hospital efficiency and optimizing medical resources deployment.For the change in the subject of medical liabilities following the introduction of this system,medical management needs to shift from department management to doctor management instead.In the meantime,appropriate rules and regulations are needed to normalize the roles and behavior of the medical office,department heads,and attending doctors in medical activities.This will ensure the successful operation of this responsibility system,and generate ideal medical,economic and social outcomes.

Breast cancer is a type of heterogenetic neoplasm.Metabolic dysfunction plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis and progress of breast cancer.N-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) could change fatty acid metabolism of breast cancer cells and modulate expression of oncogenes and anti-oncogenes through various ways.It may provide therapeutic opportunities in the treatment of chemotherapy,radiotherapy,endocrine therapy and molecule targeted therapy of breast cancer.
