The author expounds his views on some queries about the integrated management of rural health services. ①The prospective goal of the integrated management is not to solve problems in the internal reform of township public health centers, but to implement management of health services at the village level, a goal that can be attained. ②The structure of property rights of rural health institutions ought not to become the criterion of rural health reform; what should become the criterion ought to be the establishment of safe, effective, comprehensive, and non profitable health services. ③Concrete analyses should be made regarding the increase of charges for medical services after the integrated management. ④The integrated management means management based on integration, the latter being an indispensable means of the former. ⑤Perfection of the integrated management needs to go through a process.

The main factor is the number of patients, which predicted by least square method to reduce the deviation. The like equipments located nearby are also considered and the Shared Coefficient is proposed.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis,differential diagnosis and treatment of gynecological acute abdomen,and provide a basis for treatment.Methods The clinical data of 749 cases with gynecological acute abdomen in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Results The diagnostic accuracy was 100％ of the preoperative uterine perforation,acute pelvic inflammatory disease,tubal ovarian abscess,ovarian cyst torsion and.ruptured ovarian cysts.19 cases with ovarian corpus luteum rupture were misdiagnosed for ectopic pregnancy,1 case with acute hemorrhagic salpingitis were misdiagnosed for ectopic pregnancy,1 case with IUD of ectopic pregnancy lead to pelvic abscess was misdiagnosed for ovarian cyst torsion secondary infection,the total misdiagnosis patients were 21 cases,and the misdiagnosis rate was 2.8％.217 cases with acute abdomen received the surgical treatment,532 cases were given non-surgical treatment.All patients were cured and discharged by the hospital treatment,the average hospitalization time was (8.2 ± 2.5) d.Conclusion In the diagnosis of gynecological acute abdomen,detailed ask the patients' medical history,symptoms,and comprehensive physical examination and collection of signs are important means.The understanding of acute hemorrhagic fallopian tubes,ovarian corpus luteum rupture and ovarian cyst torsion secondary infection should be further strengthened to reduce misdiagnosis rate.

To retrospectively analyze the clinical data of 305 cases with apoplectic sequela admitted at our general geriatric nursing ward from January 2000 to December 2011.The subjects were divided into 2 groups:hypoalbuminemia and non-hypoalbuminemia.Advanced age (OR =5.624),chronic heart failure (OR =2.298),conscious disturbance (OR =1.575),dysphagia (OR =1.565),complete bedridden (OR=2.874),pneumonia (OR =3.725) and bedsore (OR =5.336) were risk factors for hypoalbuminemia in the patients with apoplectic sequela.And hyperglycemia(OR =0.066)was a protective factor for it.

[Objective] To review the treatment of metabolic syndrome from phlegm and stasis, so as to provide effective ideas for the treatment of metabol-ic syndrome.[Method] Through searching for literatures related to Chinese medicine treatment of metabolic syndrome in the last decade, we can summarize the role of phlegm and blood stasis in the metabolic syndrome and its relationship with various components of metabolic syndrome. We can also research the application of the resolving the phlegm and removing blood stasis in the metabolic syndrome. [Results] Phlegm, blood stasis consistently run through the metabolic syndrome, and have a close relationship with each component of metabolic syndrome. The prescription of resolving the phlegm and remov-ing blood stasis can not only improve the clinical symptoms, but also can improve obesity-related indicators, reduce blood glucose, increase insulin sensitiv-ity, improve endothelial function and so on. [Conclusion] Treating metabolic syndrome from phlegm and stasis is safe and effective, which can reverse dia-betes, insulin resistance and prevent cardiovascular events through multi-channel, multi-level, multi-target. It has a broad application prospect and is worth further in-depth study.

Cascade in cerebral ischemic injury may cause cholinergic dysfunction,inflammation and oxidative stress. It plays an important role in the pathological processes of vascular dementia. A large amount of basic research has confirmed that cholinesterase inhibitor and N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor inhibitor may improve cognitive function in patients with vascular dementia. However, the efficacy of these drugs has been confirmed in only a part of the patients, and their safety and efficiency have not achieved the expected results. Thus, it needs further study and exploration.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of surgical treatment for varied types of cicatricial blepharon deformities. Methods Eleven patients (16 eyes) suffering from cicatricial blepharon deformities underwent surgical procedures. 4 cases (7 eyes) were treated with free skin flap transfer; 1 case with free skin flap transfer and amniotic membrane grafting, 2 cases with Z plasty; 1 case with pedicled skin flap; 1 case with orbicularis oculi musculocutaneous flap; 1 case (2 eyes) with wedged tarsal excision and blepharoplasty, and 1 case with allografe of keratoconjunctiva and reconstraction of conjunctival sac. Results All of 11 cases (16 eyes) showed satisfactory appearance and eyelid function to certain extent after operations. Conclusion The repair of skin defect and conjunctival sac integrality is the key step in correction of cicatricial blepharon deformities, which may offer good eyelid position and function.

OBJECTIVETo compare the difference in the clinical efficacy on benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) between the acupuncture-moxibustion therapy and the medication of Qianliekang tablets.

METHODSOne hundred and twenty-eight patients were randomized into an acupuncture-moxibustion group and a Qianliekang group, 64 cases in each one. In the acupuncture-moxibustion group, acupuncture was applied to Shenshu (BL 23), Pangguangshu (BL 28), Zhongji (CV 3), Guanyuan (CV 4) and Shuidao (ST 28), and the warm moxibustion therapy with moxa stick was used at Shenshu (BL 23), Guanyuan (CV 4) and Shenque (CV 8), once every day. In the Qianliekang group, Qianliekang tablets were prescribed for oral administration, 4 tablets each time, three times a day, for 3 months. The International Prostate Symptom Score (I-PSS) and the changes in residual urine (Ru) and maximal urine flow rate (Qmax) determined with the ultrasonic B test were compared before and after treatment in the two groups.

RESULTSThe results of I-PSS, Qmax and Ru were improved obviously after treatment as compared with those before treatment in the two groups (all P < 0.05). The improvements in the acupuncture-moxibustion group were much more obvious than those in the Qianliekang group [8.62 +/- 2.18 vs 15.26 +/- 2.81, (16.04 +/- 4.33) mL/s vs (12.47 +/- 2.13) mL/s, (10.43 +/- 2.14) mL vs (32.13 +/- 3.24) mL, all P < 0.01]. The total effective rate was 89.1% (57/64) in the acupuncture-moxibustion group, which was better than 68.7% (44/64) in the Qianliekang group.

CONCLUSIONAcupuncture-moxibustion therapy achieves the significant efficacy on BPH, which is better than the oral administration of Qianliekang tablets.

Liver cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide and the third leading cause of cancer death.Partial hepatectomy and liver transplantation are the most effective therapies.However, postoperative tumor metastasis and recurrence are the main obstacles in the long-term survival.Liver cancer stem cells (LCSCs) within cancer tissues are associated with tumor occurrence, proliferation and tolerance to current therapy and are regarded as the major root of metastasis and recurrence.Eradication of LCSCs is a novel therapy of liver cancer.In this review, surface markers of LCSCs and mechanisms of pro-metastasis and recurrence, circulating LCSCs,microenvironment of LCSCs and their roles in the metastasis and relapse are summarized.
