By making a comparative analysis of the changes in the indexes of total floor area, the floor areas of seven faeihties and their proportion to the total floor area, and some other parts that have been made with regard to the construction of general hospitals, the paper argues that the revised construction standards embody a kind of comprehensive service that is patient-centered, comfortable, fast, and convenient; a kind of medical environment wherein the first importance is attached to people, scientific management is stressed, and the buildings have been designed with the patients in mind; and a desire to keep up with the times and meet people's needs for medical and health care. It is suggested that the scale of construction be moderate, the average floor area of beds be gradually increased, the number of storeys be mainly multiple and low high-rise, the number of parking spaces be gradually increased to match the number of beds, the scale of each nursing unit be moderate, the number of beds per thousand people be gradually raised, and the idea of separated sectors and streamlining design be stressed.

In the experiments we used T_6 medium prepared by ourselves and mixed with diferent concentrations of human serum albumin or mother's serum, from which we prepared follicular flushing medium, insemination medium and growth medium. Clomiphene citrate and HCG were used for inducing superovulation. The semen was obtained through masturbation and artificially capacitated. A mature ovum and 2-3 drops of capacitated semen were incubated together in insemination medium in the culture box containing 5% CO_2 in air atmosphere at 37℃. The ovum was aspirated and transferred into the growth medium and incubated for 16-17 hours. By this time the ovum was already fertilized with the appearance of 2 pronuclei. About 30 hrs, it normally developed into two-cell stage, 40-44 hrs, it cleavaged into 4-cell stage. After 72 hrs, the fertilized ovum grew into morula. Up to June, 1986 twentythree ova in vitro fertilized and cultured were transfered into 14 mothers, uteri at the four-cell stage. The details of fertilization and the early embryo development in vitro were described.

Objective To observe the effect and significance of high-expression HOXB4 in controlling proliferation and cycle of human cartilage endplate stem cells (CESCs).Methods CESCs were divided into adenovirus-mediated HOXB4 delivery group (Group A),empty virus delivery group (Group B) and blank control group.Gene and protein expressions of HOXB4 in Group A were detected by PCR and Western blot respectively; cell proliferation among those groups were determined using cell counting kit 8 (CCK8) technique; cell cycle among those groups was measured by propidium iodide (PI) assay and flow cytometry.Results (1) Over-expressed HOXB4 virus was transferred to CESCs successfully; (2) Real-time quantitative PCR results showed 3.6 times higher expression of HOXB4 in Group A than in blank control group.Western blotting indicated HOXB4 protein in Group A was 3 times the level in control group; (3) HOXB4 promoted CESCs proliferation (P ＜ 0.05) and blocked the cells at phase S.Cells at phase S in Group A was increased from 29.27 to 30.28 (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Over-expressed HOXB4 accelerates proliferation of CESCs and increases cell population at phase S,indicating that HOXB4 hindering CESCs degeneration may be an approach to treat lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion.

Objective To investigate the relative risk factors of glucose metabolism disorder in newborn infants.Methods Clinical information of 791 newborns suffered from glucose metabolism disorders who had been hospitalized in NICU from Jan.2004 to May 2007 were analyzed retrospectively.Four hundred and thirty-nine cases presented with hypoglycemia,275 cases presented with hyperglycemia,and 77 cases presented with both hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia.Data of risk factors were processed with both ?2 test and multiple Logistic regression analysis.Results The statistic analysis showed that low birth weight[258 cases(58.77%)],asphyxia[217 cases(49.43%)],acidosis[146 cases(33.26%)],hypothermia[128 cases(29.16%)],maternal gestational hypertension[83 cases(18.91%)],pneumonia[63 cases(14.35%)],anomaly of placenta[35 cases(7.97%)],maternal diabetes[17 cases(3.87%)] and septicaemia[10 cases(2.28%)]were significant hypoglycemia risk factors(according to the level of morbidity).Pneumonia[98 cases(35.64%)],asphyxia[129 cases(27.23%)],hypoxemia[61 cases(22.18%)]and septicaemia[24 cases(8.73%)]were significant hyperglycemia risk factors.Acidosis[33 cases(42.86%)],pneumonia[27 cases(35.06%)]and maternal diabetes[6 cases(7.79%)] were significant risk factors for neonates with both hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia.Conclusion Dynamic monitoring of blood glucose concentration and reasonable adjustment is recommended for neonates with risk factors to lower morbility and mortality.

Objective To observe the effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) transplantation on the expression of growth associated protein-43 (GAP-43) in rats after spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods The SCI models were made by impacting at the level of T11 segment. After modeling, the rats were randomly and equally divided into control group (n=18) and observation group (n=18). 1 week after injury, DMEM/F12 medium 0.1 ml was injected into tail vein of rats in the control group, and an equal volume of BMSCs suspension was injected in the observation group. 1, 2, 4, 8 weeks after SCI, the hindlimb function was evaluated by the Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan (BBB) score. 2, 4, 8 weeks after SCI, the expression of GAP-43 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR, and the expression of GAP-43 was detect-ed by the immunohistochemistry. Results 2, 4, 8 weeks after SCI, compared with the control group, The BBB score increased, the expres-sion of GAP-43 mRNA and GAP-43 increased in the observation group (P<0.05). Conclusion BMSCs transplantation can improve the ex-pression of GAP-43 in gene and protein level, and then promote the repair of SCI.

Objective To determine the diagnostic and assessment value of soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) level in septic patients.Methods Totally 82 septic patients in the Department of Intensive Care Unit of The First Affiliated Hospital,Sun Yat-Sen University were prospectively analyzed from June 2013 to March 2014.Another 29 patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and 15 healthy subjects served as controls.Septic patients were divided into sepsis group (n =27),severe sepsis group (n =27) and septic shock group (n =28) according to the severity,and there was no significant difference in age and sex among these groups.Measurement of plasma suPAR,serum procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels,and calculation of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score were performed.Comparison of group differences for continuous variables was done by oneway ANOVA or nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test.Spearman rank correlation analysis was applied to establish the relation between variables.Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was created and area under curve (AUC) was calculated to determine the diagnostic value of these variables in sepsis.Results The levels of plasma suPAR in SIRS group,sepsis group,severe sepsis group,septic shock group,and healthy control group were (8.22±0.61),(11.45±1.12),(12.99±1.28),(15.75± 1.23) and (4.65 ±0.30) ng/mL,respectively.Plasma suPAR levels in SIRS group and sepsis group were higher than that in healthy control group (P ＜ 0.01),and elevated plasma suPAR was accompanied by increased severity of sepsis (P ＜ 0.05).PCT levels of sepsis group (17.66 ± 8.42) ng/mL,severe sepsis group (9.67 ±3.56) ng/mL and septic shock group (29.19 ± 10.78) ng/mL were greater than that in SIRS group (1.10 ± 0.78) ng/mL,P ＜ 0.01.CRP levels elevated in all groups,but there were no significant differences among them.When suPAR and CRP were applied to distinguishing sepsis from SIRS,the AUC values from suPAR and combination of suPAR and PCT were 0.817 (P ＜ 0.01,95 ％ CI:0.714-0.921) and 0.927 (P＜0.01,95％ CI:0.870-0.985),respectively.Using9.52 ng/mL suPAR as the best cut-off to distinguish sepsis from SIRS,there were 71.93％ sensitivity and 95.46％ specificity.The levels of plasma suPAR positively correlated with PCT levels (r =0.326),APACHE Ⅱ score (r =0.492) and SOFA score (r =0.386),P ＜ 0.01.Conclusions Plasma suPAR levels significantly elevated in septic patients and correlated with the severity of sepsis.Sepsis and SIRS may be discerned by plasma suPAR levels.Joint use of suPAR and PCT could greatly increase the specificity of diagnosis of sepsis.
