Shenzhen implemented the health reform on the separation of drug prescribing and dispensing.This policy abolished the drug price addition system,which interrupted the interest chain between hospitals and pharmaceutical enterprises,and curbed the over-medication and use of expensive drugs.Such a reform has lowered the average cost of diagnose and treatment,the out-of-pocket payment by those covered by social insurance,outpatient infusion and the utilization of antibiotics.To further strengthen these outcomes and maintain the momentum of this policy,Shenzhen will further improve the compensation system for public hospitals,encourage the medical staffs' work enthusiasm and implement the reform measures actively.

As requested by both central government and Guangdong provincial government on the reform to separate drug prescribing and dispensing,Shenzhen has introduced its 1 + 6 comprehensive program.Breaking through from the drug price addition system,the program stages such six measures as the health service payment system reform,the compensation system reform among public hospitals,reform of the competition mechanism between pharmaceutical distribution enterprises and hospital pharmacies,reform of drug procurement methods,investigation and punishment of commercial briberies in drug purchase,and enhanced supervision of public hospitals.The paper detailed these measures and explained these innovative practices.

Objective A new method is researched based on ECG for human identification.Methods Three features of wave feature,wavelet feature,fusion feature were selected as the feature vectors for 35 normal subject ECGs,and correlation coefficient discriminate analysis was used for human identification. Results The other 40 sessions from 35 subjects were used for verifying the accuracy of each feature.They were 82.5%、87.5% and 95% respectively for wave feature,wavelet feature and fusion feature. ECG wavelet feature outperformed ECG wave feature. While ECG fusion feature performed better than either feature. Conclusion The verification experiment demonstrates that the technology of human identification based on ECG is feasible. ECG can be combined with other biometric features such as fingerprint for developing the multi-biometric identification system. The method proposed in this paper is simple,real-time and exact for human identification.

Objective To study the influencing factors of the colorants used in the placebo of herbal medicine.Methods The effect of pH value,temperature,and illumination and sterilization method on the coloring of the pigments like carmine,sunset yellow 60,brilliant blue 60 and caramel were investigated by determining the Lab value with the instrument.Results PH value of solution had effects on the coloring of carmine and sunset yellow 60,but no effects on the brilliant blue 60 and caramel.When pH values of the solutions were adjusted to 10,chromatic aberration values of carmine and sunset yellow 60 were 17.29 and 27.29,respectively; In the conditions of acidification,the color of carmine and sunset yellow 60 solutions were not changed much; short heating and illumination had no effects on all the four pigments,and all the chromatic aberration values were less than 1.5; 60Co-ray irradiation had great effects on the coloring,and the chromatic aberration values of carmine,sunset yellow 60,brilliant blue 60 and caramel solutions after 60Co-ray irradiation were 12.43,22.45,37.53 and 19.22,respectively; While autoclaving (121 ℃,20 min) would not change the color of solution,and all those chromatic aberration values were less than 1.5.Conclusion These colorants are suitable for the placebo preparation of Chinese medicine decoction,which is recommended to be added in the preparation of the final link.60Co-ray irradiation sterilization is forbidden.

To investigate the relationship among serum vascular endothelial cells(VE) -cadherin, advanced glycation end-products( AGE), and atherosclerotic lesion. 20 healthy subjects and 60 patients with diabetes mellitus,including 30 patients with carotid atherosclerosis (CI), were enrolled.Soluble VE-cadherin and AGE were determined using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent method (ELISA). The relationships among the concentration of soluble VE-cadherin, AGE, and the course of the disease, blood glucose, and blood lipid levels were analyzed with multivariant stepwise regression analysis. The levels of serum VE-cadherin and AGE in the patients with diabetes and CI were higher than those in control group( P＜0. 05 ). There was a significant difference in VE-cadherin between the diabetes group and the CI group( P＜0. 05 ). Serum VE-cadherin levels were positively correlated with serum AGE levels(r = 0. 69, P＜0. 01 ). AGE levels were positively correlated with the diabetes duration ( r = 0. 31, P =0. 02 ). The levels of serum VE-cadherin in diabetic patients are positively correlated with their serum AGE levels. The VE-cadherin seems to play an important role in the development of atherosclerosis caused by AGE.

Objective To investigate the liver repair effects of Pim-3 gene in rat with fulminant hepatic failure (FHF). Methods Thirty-two rats were divided into four groups (eight for each group). Three groups of rats were pretreated with Ringer's solution, vector plasmid or Pim-3 gene recombinant plasmid respectively and, one day later, received intraperitoneal injections with lipopolysacchride (LPS) and D-galactosamine (D-GalN). The fourth group served as normal control.Eight hours after the LPS/D-GalN injection, the liver tissues and blood samples were collected. The contents of serum transaminase was tested by automatic blood biochemistry meter. The morphological changes were observed by light microscopy using hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1β gene expression was detected by reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR). The serum levels of TNF-α and IL-1β were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and cell apoptosis by TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay. Comparisons between groups were done by analysis of variance. ResultsThe over expressions of Pim-3 gene and reporter gene, green fluorescent protein (GFP) were induced by injection with recombinant plasmid solution.In comparison with the rats retreated with Ringer' s solution or vector plasmid, those pretreated with recombinant plasmid had a lower mortality and lower serum transaminase levels. The injection of recombinant plasmid significantly reduced hemorrhage, necrosis and inflammatory infiltration in the liver. Liver apoptotic index (AI) was dramatically lower in rats treated with recombinant vectors compared to the rats treated with Ringer's solution or vector plasmids [(10. 2±6.9)％ vs (83. 1±12.6) ％ and (79.9±13.4) ％ respectively, P＜0. 01]. In addition, the expression of exogenous Pim-3 gene remarkable inhibited the transcriptions and expressions of TNF-α and IL-1β. ConclusionsPim-3 gene can protect rats from LPS/D-GalN-induced FHF possibly by inhibiting expressions and secretions of inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-α and IL-13, in liver tissues.

Objective To evaluate both the causal relationship between plasma metabolites and the risk of knee osteoarthritis(KOA)and the potential mediating or masking effect of immune cells using Mendelian randomization(MR)systems.Methods The GWAS data on 1400 plasma metabolites,731 immune cell traits and KOA was retrieved from the genome-wide association study(GWAS)database.Two-way MR analysis was used to evaluate the causal relationship between plasma metabolism and KOA.Two-step mediation MR analysis was conducted to evaluate immune cell traits that might have mediating or masking effects.Results After sensitivity analysis and screening,65 plasma metabolites and 35 immune cell traits were found to have causal relationships with KOA(P＜0.05).Mediation analysis found that CD45RA+CD28-CD8br％CD8br had a mediating effect in the causal relationship between three metabolites(2-hydroxyhi-ppurate,X-07765,X-23739)and the risk of KOA.2-hydroxyhippurate(salicylic acid)exerted a masking effect,and the effect ratio was 0.0412.Conclusion A variety of plasma metabolites and immune cell traits are causally related to KOA,which should not be regarded as a simple degenerative joint disease.The protective effect of salicylic acid against KOA may be weakened by its role in inducing the differentiation of Treg cells,which is worthy of more studies.

OBJECTIVETo compare the difference and correlation between dietary salt intakes assessed by 24 hours urinary Na method, food weighted record method and food frequency questionnaire method.

METHODSAll 2 184 subjects aged 18 to 69 were selected by multi stage stratified cluster random sampling method in Shandong province in June to September, 2011. Dietary salt intakes were measured by 24 hours urinary Na method, food weighted record method and food frequency questionnaire method. The information on gender, age, dining locations and labour intensity of members dining at home for 3 days were recorded. And the dietary habits were surveyed by questionnaire.

RESULTSSalt intakes were 14.0, 12.0 and 10.5 g/d assessed by 24 hours urinary Na method, food weighted record method and food frequency questionnaire, respectively. Comparing with 24 hours urinary Na method, salt intakes assessed by food weighted record method and food frequency questionnaire method were 2.0 g (14.3% undervalued) and 3.4 g (24.3% undervalued) less, respectively. Comparing with 24 hours urinary Na method, the proportion of individuals with salt intake over-reported and under-reported were 42.4% (856/2 020) and 55.3% (1 117/2 020) by food weighted record method, and were 20.7% (418/2 020) and 16.3% (329/2 020) by food frequency questionnaire method, respectively; the proportion of individuals with salt intakes within ± 25% of 24 hours urinary Na method were 36.9% (745/2 020) and 28.4% (574/2 020), respectively. Salt intakes assessed by 24 hours urinary method correlated significantly with both salt intakes assessed by food weighted record method and food frequency questionnaire method; the correlation coefficients were 0.13 and 0.07, respectively. With the increasing of salt intakes by subjects' self-judgment, salt intakes were all rising significantly using three survey methods. Salt intakes of three group population of light, moderate and partial taste salty were 13.6, 13.6 and 14.7 g/d by 24 hours urinary Na method (F = 0.47, P < 0.05); 11.0, 12.0 and 12.7 g/d by food weighted record method (F = 5.83, P < 0.05), and 9.3, 10.2 and 11.9 g/d by food frequency questionnaire method (F = 5.83, P < 0.05), respectively.

CONCLUSIONComparing with 24 hours urinary method, food weighted record method and food frequency questionnaire method would undervalue dietary salt intake. Salt intake status can be more accurately assessed by adjusting the underestimation rate.

OBJECTIVETo study the relationship between salt consumption and blood pressure among residents in Shandong province, and to provide basic information for guiding people to prevent hypertension by reducing salt intake.

METHODSUsing multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method, 2 184 residents aged 18 to 69 were selected as the research subjects, which were extracted randomly from 20 counties in Shandong province in June, 2011. The blood pressure of the subjects were measured and weighted. Based on 72 h dietary recalls and weighing measurement, and according to the distribution of salt intake, the grouping cut-off points were 10, 14 and 18 g. The difference of subjects with different characteristics and systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and prevalence of hypertension by grouping salt intake and other characteristics were analyzed, and the relationship between salt intake and prevalence of hypertension were analyzed.

RESULTSThe total of 2 133 residents were involved finally, the completion rate was 97.7%. After the complex weighted, the systolic and diastolic blood pressure's means (95%CI value) of the subjects were 121.0 (119.5-122.5) mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) and 78.5(77.4-79.6) mmHg respectively, which were all elevated with increasing of salt consumption. The blood pressure of the subjects with salt intake <10 g was the lowest, which were 119.6 (116.9-122.4) mmHg and 77.5(76.2-78.7) mmHg respectively. The blood pressure of the subjects with salt intake ≥ 18 g was the highest, which were 122.3(120.1-124.5) mmHg and 79.6(78.2-80.9) mmHg respectively. The analysis results showed that, among residents with normal waistline, the prevalence of hypertension of people with salt intake ≥ 18 g was 1.70(95%CI:1.04-2.76) times compared to that of people who consumed less than 10 g salt per day.

CONCLUSIONThe hypertension prevalence of Shandong province is quite high, and there is a relationship between salt consumption and blood pressure.
