Objective: To investigate the problems and improve the quality of experimental teaching for medical laboratory instruments.Method: A questionnaire was made among 100 laboratory medicine students in Chongqing University of Medical Sciences.Result: About eighty-six percent of the students were satisfied with the experimental teaching for medical laboratory instruments,but there were still problems: absence of clear objectives in experimental teaching;shortage of activity of medical laboratory instruments experiment;lack of modern large-scale instruments.Conclusion: the key points to improve experimental teaching quality are to set up clear experimental teaching objective;update instruments for experimental teaching;structure simulator laboratory with modern education simulator technology.

Students will be familiar with the major contents of clinical laboratory management,such as clinical laboratory quality management,laboratory creature safety containment,clinical laboratory accredit action through the course of clinical laboratory management for laboratory medicine students.Meanwhile,by continuously perfecting the teaching contents and methods,students' satisfaction with this course has been improved,and they pay more attention and give higher appraisement to this course.

Rough set is a mathematical approach to study imprecise, uncertain or incomplete information or knowledge. The data mining technology based on the rough set theory can be trained through the training data set. The technology is applied to such fields as the prognosis of the pain in the chest, emergence diagnosis in ICU, distinguishing and diagnosis of lung tumor and rheumatoid disease, diagnosis of galactophore disease, diagnosis of premature birth, classification and diagnosis of liver disease and acute appendicitis. The technology has a brilliant future in medical data mining.

Objective To appraise the values of combined determination of cTnI,MYO and CK-MB mass in the diagnosis of viral myocarditis.Methods The myocardial injury markers(cTnI,MYO and CK-MB mass)and myocardial enzyme(LDH,AST,CK and ?-HBDH)of 61 patients with viral myocarditis(VMC),74 patients with non-viral myocarditis(NVMC)and 46 healthy subjects were determined,respectively,by microparticle chemiluminescent immunoassay and continuous monitoring assay.Diagnostic efficiency was calculated by matrix decision method.Results The serum levels of cTnI,MYO and CK-MB mass of the patients in VMC group were obviously higher than that of the patients in NVMC group(0.46?0.21 vs 0.06?0.04?g/L,98.7?38.2 vs 39.2?26.8?g/L and 6.1?4.2 vs 2.2?1.7?g/L,respectively)as well as that of healthy subjects(0.46?0.21 vs 0.07?0.04?g/L,98.7?38.2 vs 36.5?24.7?g/L and 6.1?4.2 vs 2.1?1.5?g/L,respectively,P0.05).For preliminary diagnosis of VMC,the SE of MYO is highest,but the SP of cTnI and CK-MB mass were better choice.Restoration of MYO was earliest while cTnI was latest during convalescence of the patients.Conclusion Combined and uninterrupted determination of the myocardial injury markers can provide better diagnostic accuracy.

Clinical testing of equipment is an interdisciplinary professional and technical course,of which we made continuous innovation and practice by optimizing the curriculum system ,upgrading teaching contents,reforming teaching methods,opening up the construction of teach-ing materials,building the teaching staff and improving teaching quality management etc.After five years of positive efforts the remarkable teaching results were achieved.

By updating their concepts of education,carrying out the reform of teaching content,teaching methods and means,strengthening the construction of teaching materials,creating a high standard teaching team,the author aims to implement the construction of quality course of clinical testing equipment and comprehensively improve the teaching quality.

AIM: To demonstrate the changes of activity and electron microscopic enzyme cytochemistry staining of H+-K+-ATPase of gastric parietal cells under stress in rats.METHODS: Twenty-four male SD rats were randomly divided into normal group,stress group and stress+omeprazole(OM) group.Water immersion-restraint stress(WRS) model in SD rats was performed.The ulcer index(UI) of gastric mucosa and H+-K+-ATPase activity of gastric parietal cells were measured.The changes of ultrastructure and electron microscopic enzyme cytochemistry staining of parietal cells were observed under transmission electron microscope(TEM).RESULTS: Compared with control group,the UI of gastric mucosa and H+-K+-ATPase activity of gastric parietal cells increased(P

The acquisition of heart rate variability (HRV) signals is very important to physiological research and clinical diagnosis. In order to ensure the accuracy of acquired heart rate variability signals, we must consider the method of acquisition of heart rate variability signals. By using the relation between the signal singularity and its wavelet transforms, a software for R wave in detection is designed. The result is very satisfying in detecting R wave of ECG database of MIT/BIH.

A novel disposable three electrodes blood alcohol biosensor strip was fabricated by a screen printing technique. Multi-wall carbon nanotube(MWCNT), Meldola′s(MB), alcohol dehydrogenase(ADH)and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide cofactor (NAD+) were modified on the surface of the carbon working electrode. Then hydrophilic membrane was stuck in the outermost of the three electrodes to make a reaction camera of 5 μL. Experimental results indicated that the biosensor possessed good accuracy and stability, the linear response range was 0.5-20 mmol/L with correlation coefficient of 0.9949, detection limit was 0.22 mmol/L, and the response time was less than 15 s. Some influencing factors to the biosensor were investigated, such as the pH, temperature and interferences. Correlation analysis showed that there was a significant correlation between the methods of biosensor and the headspace vapor phase chromatography in 10 whole blood samples(r=0.97583). Small volume whole blood sucked using siphonage to detect blood alcohol directly and quantitatively was the obvious character of the biosensor.

Objective To explore the humoral and cellular immune responses of a vaccine of S fragments from a new type reovirus R4 strain in mice.Methods Four recombinant plasmids were constructed by respectively cloning S 1, S2, S3,S4 genes into pcDNA3.1+, and mice were intramuscularly immunized with the recombinant plasmids in a dose of 100 μg/mouse.Control vector pcDNA3.1 +and phosphate buffered saline (PBS) were used as negative controls.The spe-cific antibody level and IgG subclass (IgG1, IgG2a, and IgG2b) were detected by ELISA, and cellular immune responses to R4 were assessed using an interferon ( IFN)-γELISpot assay .Results All recombinant plasmids induced significantly higher levels of anti-R4 IgG compared with that of the controls (pcDNA3.1 +and PBS), and the titers were highest in the mice immunized with S1 and S3.On the other hand, S1 gene induced highest IgG2a antibody and the cellular immune re-sponse was best .Conclusions After the mice immunized with S 1 gene recombinant plasmid , this plasmid can initiate both cellular and humoral immune responses in mice .S1 gene recombinant plasmid is a promising vaccine candidate .
