Objective To study the application of the two-paths double U-shaped fixer in clinical intravenous indwelling needle fixation. Methods A total of 420 cases using of intravenous indwelling needle from January to June 2015 were involved and divided into experimental group(210 cases) and control group(210 cases) by random digits table method. The two-paths double U-shaped fixer was applied in experimental group and the control group were used tape by Y type to fix. The incidence of returning-blood, blocking, phlebitis, slippage and the comfort between two groups were observed and compared. Results The incidence of returning-blood, blocking, phlebitis, slippage in experimental group were 6.2%(13/210), 0.5%(1/210), 0 , which were lower than those in control group 48.6%(102/210), 5.7%(12/210), 1.4%(3/210) seperately, the differences were statistically significant (χ2=117.895, P<0.01). The incidence of phlebitis levelⅠ,Ⅱ,ⅢandⅣin experimental group were 3.3%(7/210), 1.4%(3/210), 0.9%(2/210), 0, which were lower than those in control group 11.9%(25/210), 9.0%(19/210), 3.8%(8/210), 2.4%(5/210), the differences were statistically significant(Z=-5.960, P<0.01). The incidence of the comfort level 1, 2, 3 and 4 in experimental group were 92.4%(194/210), 6.2%(13/210), 1.4%(3/210), 0 individually, which were higher than those in control group 36.7%(77/210), 46.7%(98/210), 12.4%(26/210), 4.3%(9/210), the differences were statistical significant (Z=-16.228, P < 0.01). Conclusions Two-paths double U-shaped fixationis is better than Y-shaped tape fixation. To compare the venous indwelling needle fixation, two-paths double U-shaped fixer could fix more effectively and safety. At the same time, it also has advantages in convenient, observation and appearance. It could be widely used in clinical practice.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of rotating-lifting oblique Ban-pulling tuina manipulation plus acupuncture in treating cervical vertigo (CV).Methods:Seventy-three CV patients were divided into two groups by block randomization, 50 cases in each group. The observation group was intervened by rotating-lifting oblique Ban-pulling tuina manipulation plus acupuncture, while the control group was by the same acupuncture treatment alone. The tuina treatment was given once every other day and the acupuncture treatment was given once every day. The symptom score was observed before and after 20-day treatment, and the therapeutic efficacies were compared between the two groups.Results:During the intervention, 14 subjects in the observation group and 13 subjects in the control group dropped out. Finally, 36 cases in the observation group and 37 cases in the control group were involved into the data analysis. After 20-day treatment, the symptom scores were significantly increased in both groups (P<0.05), and the symptom score in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). The total effective rate was 91.7% in the observation group versus 83.8% in the control group, and the difference was statistically insignificant (P>0.05). The recovery and markedly effective rate was 69.4% in the observation group versus 32.4% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion:Rotating-lifting oblique Ban-pulling tuina manipulation plus acupuncture can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of CV patients, and its clinical efficacy is superior to that of acupuncture alone.

Objective To investigate epidemiological characteristics and differences in anklebrachial index (ABI) among the natural population in Shanghai and Inner Mongolia,and to observe the prevalence of lower extremity peripheral arterial disease (PAD).Methods A total of 2604 volunteers from Shanghai and Inner Mongolia were selected by stratified cluster random sample.ABI was measured and related data were collected.Results The A BI value in Shanghai was 1.074 ± 0.095,while it was 1.062 ±0.075 in Inner Mongolia (P ＜ 0.001).The prevalence of lower extremity PAD in Shanghai was 4.2％,while it was 1.9％ in Inner Mongolia (P ＜ 0.01).For males,the ABI value in Shanghai was 1.078 ±0.105,and it was 1.075 ± 0.080 in Inner Mongolia (P ＞ 0.05).For females,the ABI value in Shanghai was 1.073 ±0.089,while it was 1.052 ±0.070 in Inner Mongolia (P ＜0.001).For males,the prevalence of lower extremity PAD of the in Shanghai was 4.7％,while it was 2.0％ in Inuer Mongolia (P ＜ 0.05).For females,the prevalence of lower extremity PAD of in Shanghai was 4.0％,while it was 1.8％ in Inner Mongolia (P ＜ 0.05).The ABI values in age group of ＜ 50 years in Shanghai and Inner Mongolia were 1.037 ± 0.082 and 1.055 ± 0.068,respectively (P ＜ 0.05).The prevalences of lower extremity PAD in age group of ＜50 years in Shanghai and Inner Mongolia were 7.6％ and 1.2％,respectively (P ＜0.001).There were no significant differences in ABI value and the prevalence of lower extremity PAD between Shanghai and Inner Mongolia in both age group of 50-69 years and ≥70 years (all P values ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The ABI value in Shanghai is higher than that in Inner Mongolia and the prevalence of lower extremity PAD in both males and females in Shanghai is significantly higher than that in Inner Mongolia.But they are lower than the level of western countries.In different age groups,the difference of the prevalence of lower extremity PAD between Shanghai and Inner Mongolia is only displayed in the age group of ＜ 50 years,which may be related to the limited sample size.The natural population in Shanghai exposed artery atherosclerotic disease risk factors may increase and we need to pay more attention to the lower extremity PAD.

Objective　To develop a new method to induce the gene transfection in high efficiency for eukaryotic cells in vitro. Methods　 Four kinds of p14ARF gene primarily deleted human carcinoma cell line including H460,A549,U251,and PC-3 were transfected with the human p14ARF expression vector (pCI-neo-p14ARF) by using the new nonliposomal transfection reagent Fugene 6. The efficiency of gene transfer was determined by screening the cells in G418. Results　 After 21 days' selection, G418-resistant clones were shown in all the transfected plate. PCR product of p14ARF gene was positive in all the G418-resistant clones. Cytotoxicity of Fugene 6 was detected. The cell proliferation activity was not affected when it was cultured in a high dose of Fugene 6. Conclusion　 These results demonstrate that Fugene 6 is a rapid, feasible, reproducible, and noncytotoxic gene transfection approach for eukaryotic expression vector in vitro.
