Objective To study the characteristics of the procedure of medical equipments purchase.Methods The risk of medical equipment purchase was analyzed.Results Methods of how to avoid this risk was put forward,such as loan in hospital,project management and a series of check and analysis procedures.Conclusion Desirable economic benefit and effective management are achieved.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of D-galactosamine (D-GaIN) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on liver tissue regeneration and repair in mice following liver injury induced by partial hepatectomy.

METHODSA total of 40 male BALB/c mice were randomly assigned into 2 equal groups to receive intraperitoneal injections of D-GaIN (500 mg/kg) plus LPS (50 µg/kg, given 1 h later) or two doses of saline 24 h prior to 1/3 hepatectomy. The liver weight/body weight (LW/BW) ratio and liver regeneration rate were observed at different time points after partial hepatectomy. Liver cell injury was assessed using HE staining, hepatocyte proliferation evaluated with BrdU staining, and the oval cell proliferation observed with immunohistochemistry.

RESULTSIn mice receiving saline injection, the liver volume was nearly restored 9 days after partial hepatectomy, while in mice with D-GaIN and LPS injections, the liver failed to recover the normal volume even at 14 days, showing a significant difference in the liver regeneration rate between them [(22.6∓105.93)% vs (9.49∓32.55)%, P<0.001]. Significant degenerative changes of the hepatic cells were found in D-GaIN/LPS-treated group, while only mild inflammatory reaction was observed in saline-treated group after partial hepatectomy. Obvious hepatocyte proliferation was observed at day 7 in saline-treated group but not in D-GaIN/LPS-treated group. Oval cell proliferation in the portal area occurred 3 days after partial hepatectomy in D-GaIN/LPS-treated group.

CONCLUSIOND-GaIN and LPS can obviously inhibit hepatocyte regeneration after liver injury in mice. D-GaIN and LPS combined with partial hepatectomy can induce oval cell proliferation.

ObjectiveTo study the characteristics and explore risk factors of traffic injuries in Wenzhou part of the Ningbo-Taizhou-Wenzhou (Yong-tai-wen for short) highway during 2005-2009 so as to provide scientific evidence for promoting prevention and cure level of highway traffic injury.Methods The original data of traffic accident in Wenzhou part of the Yong-tai-wen highway during 2005-2009 were collected to carry out the descriptive epidemiological investigation of the injury characteristics.Simultaneously,multi-factor analysis was conducted to screen out the risk factors for traffic accidents.Results A total of 308 traffic accidents involving 603 casualties (157 deaths) were interviewed during 2005-2009.The casualties from expressway traffic accidents declined yearly,but annual death rate was still very high (26.04％).Meanwhile,the males were more likely subjected to traffic injuries than females.The most common injury sites were the head and limb and the main fatal injuries were the head and pelvic injuries.Accident-prone period was from 0:00 to 8:00 in the morning and traffic scenarios were mainly characterized by rear collision (39％).Risk factors for traffic accidents included poor lighting conditions,overloaded vehicles on the road sections,male drivers,driving without a license,fatigue driving and speeding.ConclusionsTraffic accidents present high incidence and casualty rates,and are mainly resulted from overloaded and fatigue driving.Therefore,the training and education on safe driving should be done particularly for the males and low driving age drivers to strictly forbid the overload driving,fatigue driving or overspeed driving.
