1.Re-analysis of the Cultivation of Medical Ethics for Medical Students
Chinese Medical Ethics 1994;0(05):-
Medical ethics is a set of behavioural principles which regularized medical workers' relationships to patients and society and that between themselves under social ethics and the development of medical science.It is an essential constituent of the social ethical system and plays an important role in medical activity.By studying the current situation of the ethics-oriented education on medical students,the author re-analyzed the current state of medical ethics and proposed some creative and feasible methods on improving the quality of medical ethics of the students.

Objective To investigate the correlation between shear wave velocity and tissue fibrosis score in thyroid space-occupying lesions.Methods The shear wave velocity of 55 thyroid space-occupying lesions was examined by virtual touch tissue quantification.The shear wave velocity of different solid parts of the lesions was detected for several times and 15 data were genarated.Then maximum and minimum value were removed.The maximum (Vmax),minimum (Vmin),mean (Vm) of shear wave velocity were calculated with the rest of 13 data.Meantime the fibrosis degree of these pathological lesions were scored by using optical micorscope.The maximum (Fmax),minimum (Fmin) and mean (Fm) fibrosis degree were calculated with these scores.Then the difference between Fmax,Fmin and Fm value of benign lesions and malignant lesions was analyzed.The linear correlation between Fmax and Vmax,Fmin and Vmin,Fm and Vm was also analysed.Results In the 55 lesions,30 lesions were benign and the rest was malignant.The Fmax,Fmin,Fm of benign lesions were 1.38 ± 1.44,0.68 ± 0.25,0.91 ± 0.73 respectively; the corresponding value of malignant lesions were 5.00 ± 1.91,3.52 ± 1.82,4.08 ± 1.75 respectively.There was significant difference between the benign group and malignant group (t test,P <0.01).There were linear correlation between Fmax and Vmax,Fmin and Vmin,Fm and Vm and the Pearson correlation coefficients were 0.504,0.284,0.453 respectively.Conclusions The shear wave velocity and fibrosis degree of thyroid lesions has linear relationship.The heavier the degree of fibrosis is,the faster the shear wave velocity would be.

BACKGROUND: In the tissue engineering studies, the common method of cell detachment is trypsinization. However, this method may decrease cell activity by breaking the extracellular matrix proteins. Therefore, it is important to develop a new cell detachment method which can avoid the damage from trypsinization.OBJECTIVE: Based on that poly N-isopropylacrylamide (PNIPAAm) could alter its hydrophobic property with the change of temperature, this study aimed to develop a novel method which can control cell detachment by simply changing the temperature. METHODS: IPAAm was dissolved in isopropanol with final concentration of 55% (w/v). IPAAm solution was evenly laid on the surface of TCPS dish, and PNiPAAm was then covalently grafted on the TCPS dish surface by electron beam irradiation. The micro.structure of the surface of TCPS dish was observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) before and after PNIPAAm grafted. Water contact angle was determined by sessile drop method. And an inverted phase contrast microscope was used to observe and evaluate the cell detachment ability of PNIPAAm grafted TCPS dish by subjecting the same dish to different temperatures. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: AFM images showed that a thin and compact PNIPAAm layer formed on the TCPS dish surface. In the water contact angle test, there was no statistic difference between PNIPAAm grafted and ungrafted surfaces at 37 ℃, and the water contact angle of PNIPAAm grafted surfaces was lower than that of ungrafted surface at 20 ℃. The cells adhered to the surface of the PNIPAArn grafted TCPS dish at 37 ℃, which would be detached at 20 ℃.It was successful to control cell detachment by simply changing the temperature with PNIPAAm grafted TCPS dish, and it would be promising to be applied in tissue engineering.

Objective To investigate the effects of Topiramate(TPM) on activity of SOD and concentration of MDA in blood serum and the changes of the nerve function scores after cerebral ischemia/perfusion in rats. Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into ischemia/perfusion group, TPM group and sham-operation group. Rat models of transient focal cerebral ischemia were made by 2 h occlusion of right middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion for 24 h.Rats in TPM group were injected TPM(8 mg/ml,80 mg/kg)in the beginning of the artery occlusion and the reperfusion. The rats were sacrificed after they were evaluated by the nerve function deficiency scores. The activity of SOD and concentration of MDA in blood serum were measured.Results The activity of SOD and concentration of MDA in blood serum in ischemia/perfusion group were (157.72?19.04)U/ml and (7.45?0.84 )nmol/ml, those in TPM group were ( 171.25?15.72)U/ml and (( 6.10?0.98) nmol/ml,those in sham-operation group were (179.74?7.95)U/ml and (5.90?0.72 )nmol/ml. Compaired with sham-operation and TPM groups, the activity of SOD in ischemia/perfusion group was significantly lower, the concentration of MDA was obviously higher (all P

Objective To investigate the neuroprotective effects of Topiramate (TPM) on rat brain with ischemia-reperfusion damage and its mechanisms.Methods The 30 male SD rats were randomly assigned to sham operated group, ischemia-reperfusion group and TPM treated group.The cerebral ischamia and reperfusion model was made by suture occlusion of right middle cerebral artery(MCAO).Rats in TPM treated group were intraperitoneally injected TPM (80 mg/kg) twice. At 24 h following onset of MCAO,the nerve function score was evaluated with Neurological Grading Scale. The infarction volume was measured with TTC staining. The contents of glutamate (Glu) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) of cerebral cortex were tested by the high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescent detection. GABAA receptors were observed by immunohistochemistry.Results (1) Compared with the ischemia-reperfusion group, the Neurological Grading Scale of TPM treated group was significantly higher(P
