1.Mechanism of CCL2/MCP-1 in its relevant diseases
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2016;32(12):1634-1638
Chemokine is a small protein which plays an impor-tant role in men's physiological function.It has chemotactic ac-tivity and is often secreted by immune cells and glial cells like microglia or astrocytes.Through the effect of chemokine recep-tors on target cells,various immune cells can achieve directional migration and play an important role in the diseases related with immunity and inflammation.CCL2,also known as monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1 ),is one member of chemokine CC subfamily (βsubfamily).It can chemokine monocytes, macrophages and T lymphocytes to affect their phagocytosis func-tion and produce antibodies to combat invading microorganisms. In recent years,it has been found that CCL2 plays a key role in the occurrence and development of the problems concerning cen-tral nervous system and immune system as well as cancer, AIDS,leukemia,diabetes and other diseases.This thesis is to give an elaboration on the latest research on CCL2 and the rele-vant diseases.
2.Advances in arrested late lung development and bronchopulmonary dysplasia
International Journal of Pediatrics 2015;42(6):615-618
The process of late lung development is disturbed in bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).One of the keys in late lung development is secondary septation, in which secondary septa arise from primary septa, producing plenty of small alveoli, which significantly increase the surface area of gas exchange.Secondary septation,together with architectural changes to the vascular structure of the lung which minimize the distance between the blood and the inspired air, are the targets of late lung development.BPD is a disease of premature infants in which development of the alveoli is stunted caused by many factors including volutrauma,inflammation,and oxygen toxicity.Compared with early lung development, the later development of the immature lung remains unclear.This paper is to emphasize remarkable latest research of arrested late lung development and BPD.

Journal of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2016;(1):27-30
Objective To evaluate the short-term effect of elemene combined with transcatheter hepatic arterial chemoembolization (TACE) interventional therapy for the treatment of moderate and advanced liver cancer.Methods A total of 63 patients with moderate and advanced liver cancer were randomized into test group(31 cases) and control group(32 cases). Both groups were given TACE, and additionally, the test group was given intra-arterial infusion of Elemene Emulsion(400-600 mg/m2)together with MAO(Mitomycin C 4-6 mg/m2 , adriamycin 20-40 mg/m2, Oxaliplatin 50-85 mg /m2), and the control group was given intra-arterial infusion of MAO. Short-term effect was evaluated by the clinical outcomes of tumor size, progression-free survival(PFS), total survival rate and adverse reactio n. Results(1)The overall response rate(ORR) in the test group was superior to that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05) .(2)PFS in the test group covered 125 days, and that in the control group covered 118 days, the difference being significant (P<0.05); the median survival time(MST) in the test group was 257 days, and that in the control group was 214 days,the difference being insignificant(P>0.05).(3) No severe toxic or side effect was found in t he twogroups, the difference being not significant(P>0.05). The test group tended to have milder adverse reaction. Conclusion Intra-arterial infusion Elemene Emulsion combined with TACE interventional therapy is effective in increasing ORR, prolonging PFS, promoting adverse reaction endure and relieving symptoms of weakness, abdominal distension and pain.
4.Current research on unilateral cervical facet dislocation of the lower cervical spine
Chinese Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma 2016;18(9):824-828
Unilateral facet dislocation of the lower cervical spine is an important subgroup of cervical spine injuries,accounting for from 12% to 16% of all cervical spine injuries.Unilateral facet dislocation occurs the most commonly at the C5-6 level,and is closely related to the anatomic and morphometric features of the cervical facet.This injury has been attributed to combined flexion and rotation,but it remains unclear whether flexion or rotation is the component of greater importance.Its treatment includes nonoperative and operative measures but optimal treatment has not been established.It is generally accepted that a recommendable treatment protocol begins with closed reduction and proceeds depending on whether the closed reduction succeeds and traumatic disc herniation is present or not.

9.Current status and problems in developing clinical guidelines for Chinese medicine and integrative medicine.
Journal of Integrative Medicine 2009;7(4):301-5
With the wide application of clinical guidelines and standardization of Chinese medicine (CM), guidelines of CM and/or integrative medicine (IM) were also emerging. By the guideline evaluation instruments such as the Appraisal of Guidelines Research and Evaluation (AGREE) Instrument and Conference on Guideline Standardization (COGS), a preliminary assessment of 11 clinical guidelines for CM and/or IM published before October 2008 was performed. Methodological description of evidence collection or synthesization was absent in most clinical guidelines, and evidence-grading criteria were listed in only one of the eleven guidelines. Inadequate standardization of guideline development, single professional background of guideline developers, and lack of high-grade evidence were the current problems. It was suggested that guideline development group should include individuals from multiple relevant professional fields. Stress should be laid on evidence collection and recommendation grading. Guideline developers should follow the rigorous development methodology of evidence-based guidelines, and the methods for evaluating evidence and grading recommendations should be set up according to the characteristics of medical literature of CM. In addition, more attention should be paid to appraise the quality of clinical practice guidelines of CM and IM.
