4.MicroRNAs: novel crossroads of multiple myeloma treatment
Journal of Chinese Physician 2016;18(7):1118-1120
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematologic malignancy of differentiated plasma cells that accumulate in the bone marrow,where a complex microenvironment made by different cell types supports proliferation,survival,and drug resistance of tumor cells.MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression at post-transcriptional level.Emerging evidence indicates that miRNAs are aberrantly expressed or functionally deregulated in MM cells as the result of multiple genetic or epigenetic mechanisms and that also the tumor microenvironment regulates MM cell functions by miRNAs.Consistently,modulation of miRNA levels in MM cells has been demonstrated to impair their functional interaction with the bone marrow microenvironment and to produce significant antitumor activity to overcome the protective bone marrowmilieu.This review will describe the most recent findings on miRNA function in the context of MM bone marrow microenvironment,focusing on the therapeutic potential of miRNA-based approaches.
5.Vegetarian diets and cardiovascular health: evidence-based and pondering.
Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine 2014;34(6):653-655
The correlation between vegetarian diets and cardiovascular health is always one of the hotspots. Many scholars have performed so many clinical researches all over the world, providing evidence-based medicine (EBM) reference for clarifying their correlation. In this paper, we raise ideas and expectation on the basis of a Meta-analysis about vegetarian diets and blood pressure (published on JAMA Internal Medicine in Feb 2014) in combination of main clinical research literature in this field in recent 20 years.

6.Study on the Pressing Time and Puncture Site Bleeding after Extubation of Superficial Venous Catheter in Elderly Patients
Journal of Kunming Medical University 2016;37(11):142-144
Objective To investigate the pressing time and puncture site bleeding after extubation of superficial venous catheter in elderly patients.Methods Four hundred elderly inpatients were selected from respiratory department during June 2015 and December 2015 and were divided into two groups:200 patients as experimental group with pressing time of 5-6 minutes and 200 patients as control group with pressing time of 3-4 minutes.The same group of nurses pressed the puncture site after extubation and changes on skin and vessels were observed,which was to find out the optimal pressing time after extubation of superficial venous catheter in elderly patients.Results The presence of bleeding,bruising,success rate of the second puncture,swelling,pain and degree of comfort were compared between two groups and significant differences were found (P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with those in control group,less bleeding,bruising,swelling,and pain,higher success rate of the second puncture and lower degree of comfort were found in experimental group.
7.Review of Magnetic Resonance Diffusion-Weighted Imaging in Liver
Chinese Journal of Bases and Clinics in General Surgery 2003;0(03):-
Objective To review the examination techniques and the current research progress of the magnetic resonance diffusion weighted-imaging (DWI) used in liver. Methods The recent and relevant literatures about the principles and the current study situation of liver DWI were scrutinized and analyzed retrospectively. In addition, the existing problems of liver DWI were discussed. Results DWI could demonstrate the normal and abnormal structure and function through measuring the diffusion motions of water molecule in the liver. With the improving technology and better understanding of diffusion dynamics, DWI has been used for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis for hepatic diseases. Conclusion DWI as a non-invasive examine method, may provide valuable functional information for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
8.The clinical efficacy of sacral hiatus epidural blocking combined with three-dimensional rapid traction for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation
Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2011;33(3):202-205
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of three-dimensional rapid traction combined with sacral hiatus epidural blocking for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation(LDH). Methods A totsl of 450 patients with LDH were divided into three groups.Group A received conventional slow traction,group B received three-dimensional rapid traction,and group C received sacral hiatus injections for epidural blocking combined with three-dimensional rapid traction.The Japanese Orthopadedic Association(JOA)scale for lumbar disease and a visual analogue scale(VAS)were used to evaluate the treatment effect and the patients'subsequent quality of life.All of the patients were followed up for 1 year and evaluated using standard clinical evaluations. Results The average VAS scores and JOA scores of the three groups were not significantly different before treatment,and all had significantly improved after treatment.The overall effectiveness rates were 63.33% for group A,90.67%for group B and 94% for group C,and these differences were all statistically significant.After one year the recurrence rates in the A,B and C groups were 20.7%,14.0%and 8.7% respectively,and these differences were again statistically significant.Conclusion Sacral hiatus epidural blocking combined with three-dimensional rapid traction showed good therapeutic effect and safety for LDH patients and was superior to simple rapid traction or slow traction.

Conclusion The imple-mentation of the new schistosomiasis control strategy based on the infection source control in four-lake regions of Hubei Province can effectively control schistosomiasis.
10.Characteristics of motor neuron differentiation from stem cells
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2009;13(49):9739-9742
Studies have shown that embryonic stem cells and neural stem ceils could be induced to differentiate into motor neurons by adding inducing factors to the culture to improve differentiation proportion of motor neurons. The development and maturation process of motor neurons in vitro culture is similar to that in embryo, involving participation of Pax6, Nk×6.1, Olig2 and HB9. Moreover, cells with HB9 as separation mark almost differentiate into motor neurons in vitro. In addition, other types of protein marks have been used for identification of motor neuronal induced differentiation, such as neuron mark MAP-2, β-tubulin-Ⅲ, cholinergic cell mark ChAT, VAChT, Schwann cell mitogen REG2, and voltage-dependent calcium ion channel 11.2 subunit. The identification of induced differentiation of motor neurons also involves detection of function of differentiated motor neurons by two methods. One method is to detect the function of in vitro cultured motor neurons, and the other is to detect the function of transplanted motor neurons in vivo. Although induced differentiation of stem cells into motor neurons becomes mature, many issues remain in clinical application, such as cell sources of induced differentiation of motor neuron, efficiency of induced differentiation, purification of differentiated motor neurons, and function of motor neurons.
