1.Functional hemodynamic monitoring should be emphasized in intensive care for burn and trauma patients.
Chinese Journal of Burns 2014;30(4):291-294
Hemodynamic monitoring is a very important measure for critically ill patients with burn and trauma, and it should be carried out throughout the course of treatment. Functional hemodynamic monitoring consists of the assessment of the dynamic interactions of hemodynamic variables in response to a defined volume change. Accordingly, response of fluid volume can be assessed in a quantitative fashion by measuring variation of both arterial pulse pressure and left ventricular stroke volunime during positive pressure breathing, or the change in cardiac output response to passive leg raising maneuver. Functional hemodynamic monitoring, contrary to that of static condition in order to realize dynamic and individual monitoring, is related to response to treatment, and it is a useful complement to static (routine) hemodynamic monitoring. At present, in the care of sepsis, shock, and mechanical ventilation, etc. related to burn injury and trauma, functional hemodynamic monitoring is more and more accepted and applied by medical personnel of ICU in burn and trauma departments. Therefore, further study on functional hemodynamic monitoring should be emphasized and practised.

3.An experimental study of mild hypothermia via lateral ventricle perfusion of cool Ringer's solution in rabbits after traumatic brain injury
Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2003;0(10):-
Objective To set up a new method of mild hypothermia via lateral ventricle in rabbits following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods Twenty-one New Zealand rabbits were used for this study. TBI was pro- duced with all the rabbits in anesthesia by using free-falling impact model. Animals were randomly divided into three groups: a TBI group, a mild hypothermia group (by perfusion of 25℃Ringer's solution via the lateral ventricle) and a control group. The contents of water and total sodium, potassium of the brain region close to traumatic brain tissue were detected and pathological changes were observed in three groups. Results The number of the injured neurons was increased significantly in both TBI group and mild hypothermia group than that in control group at 72 h after TBI (P

Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2016;39(5):440-443
Objective To investigate the effect of glycated albumin on recurrent cerebral infarction in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus. Methods All of 252 elderly acute cerebral infarction patients with diabetes mellitus were chosen from clinics. They were divided into 2 groups: A group ( glycated albumin <19.0% , 117 patients) and B group ( glycated albumin ≥ 19.0%, 135 patients). The clinical characteristics and the recurrent rate of cerebral infarction were compared between two groups. Results The levels of glycated albumin, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides in B group were significantly higher than those in A group:(21.00 ± 4.93)%vs. (16.75±1.72)%, (9.84 ± 2.89) mmol/L vs. (5.36 ± 1.00) mmol/L, (5.44 ± 1.30) mmol/L vs. (4.57 ± 1.00) mmol/L, (3.13±0.81) mmol/L vs. (2.58 ± 0.74) mmol/L, (2.34 ± 1.61) mmol/L vs. (1.74 ± 1.47) mmol/L, P<0.01 or<0.05. The recurrent rate of cerebral infarction in B group was significantly higher than that in A group: 53.3%(72/135) vs.36.7%(43/117), χ2 = 6.946, P = 0.008. Logistic regression analysis showed that the increase of glycated albumin was the independent risk factor of recurrent cerebral infarction in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus (P=0.048). Conclusions The recurrent rate of cerebral infarction is increased in elderly diabetes patients with high glycated albumin. The increase of glycated albumin is the independent risk factor of recurrent cerebral infarction.

Objective To report the clinical effects of repairing skin defects in hand by reversed neu- ro-veno-fasciocutaneous flaps based on the superficial branches of radial nerve.Methods Eleven cases with soft tissue defects around the wrist and the dorsum of the hand were treated with superficial branches of radial nerve-cephalic vein neuro-veno-fasciocutaneous flaps.Results The flaps totally survived in the 9 cases,the others were small distal necrosis.Follow-up survey in the(6-48)months after the oporation showed the appear- ante and function were satisfactory.Conclusion Superficial branches of radial nerve neurofasciocutaneous flap is well supplied with blood and easy to perform.It is the ideal flap to repair the skin defects of the first finger web,radial palm and dorsum of hand.

The fresh conidia powder of Beauveria bassiana SGBB8702 produced with diphasic technology was dried using 36-h procedures of vacuum-freeze drying (VFD) or vacuum drying (VD). The VFD and VD procedures reduced water content of the fresh conidia powder from 58.56% to 3.97% and 4.26%, resulting in preparations containing 1.29, and 1.25?10 11 conidia/g. The VFD or VD conidia had the same viability (≥98%) as the fresh ones but germinated slightly more slowly than the fresh ones. The estimates of LC 50 s for the fresh, VFD, and VD conidia against Myzus persicae on day 7 after inoculation were 1.15, 5.89, and 2.95?10 4 conidia/ml, respectively. At the concentration of 10 6 conidia/ml, the LT 50 of the fresh conidia against M. persicae was estimated as 3.6 d, corresponding to 3.9 d and 4.4 d for the VFD and VD conidia, respectively. Due to much lower cost, the VD procedure was of greater potential for drying B. bassiana conidia in mass production though the VFD procedures resulted in slightly better quality of conidia powder. The viability and virulence of the VFD conidia were assessed periodically during 12-mon storage at 4℃ and 20℃, respectively. No viable conidia stored at 20℃ were detected 255 d after storage whereas those stored at 4℃ had a viability of 90.15% and an LT 50 of 4.7 d at the end of 12-mon storage. The results showed that storage of B. bassiana conidia powder at ambient temperature was unable to maintain shelf life at commercially acceptable level even though its water content was reduced to
9. Separation and purification of cynarin from Cynara scolymus leaves by macroporous adsorption resin
Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 2011;42(6):1109-1113
Objective: To optimize the technological parameters of separation and purification of cynarin from Cynara scolymus leaves. Methods: Seven different types of macroporous adsorption resins were evaluated on absorptive capacity, desorption rate, and adsorption rate in order to select the best resin and the conditions of the best resin to separate and purify cynarin were researched. Results: It was found that LSA-21 resin showed better comprehensive adsorption property, flow rate of sample loading was 2 BV/h, 3 BV/h 50% alcohol aqueous and 2 BV/h velocity was used to elute. In this process to obtain the product with purity of 5.63% cynarin, ash content of 0.61%, product yield 5.56%, the product quality could meet the market demand. Conclusion: The LSA-21 macroporous adsorption resin shows better comprehensive adsorption property. It could be used to isolate and purify the cynarin.
10. A case study on evaluation of hospital "know-how" using contingent valuation method
Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2010;29(5):519-524
Objective: To explore a new evaluation method for hospital intangible assets through a case study on evaluation of hospital "Know-how". Methods: Using the contingent valuation method(CVM) we designed a questionnaire to survey the willingness of patients to pay for hospital "Know-how". The data was analyzed by econometrics methods and a model was established for evaluating the "Know-how" in hospitals. Results: Under three scenarios, the effect of "Know-how" increased gradually; the percentages of patients who were willing to pay were 58.48%, 65.50% and 98.54%, respectively. The mean maximal payments were 4,5,and 5 folds that of the basal level. The annual family income was the most important factors influencing the patients' willingness to pay. According to the model established,the value of the hospital "Know-how" was between 85.014 95 million to 252.229 million RMB in 2006. Conclusion: CVM may serve as a new method to evaluate hospital "Know-how" and should be further studied in the future.
