Sudden cardiac arrest is one of the critical clinical syndromes in emergency situations. A cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a necessary curing means for those patients with sudden cardiac arrest. In order to simulate effectively the hemodynamic effects of human under AEI-CPR, which is active compression-decompression CPR coupled with enhanced external counter-pulsation and inspiratory impedance threshold valve, and research physiological parameters of each part of lower limbs in more detail, a CPR simulation model established by Babbs was refined. The part of lower limbs was divided into iliac, thigh and calf, which had 15 physiological parameters. Then, these 15 physiological parameters based on genetic algorithm were optimized, and ideal simulation results were obtained finally.

· Mesenchymal stem cells ( MSCs ) are a population of multipotent stem cells with various neurotrophins from bone marrow which are widely used in tissue, cell repair and alternative research.Recently, some researches have shown that MSCs could enhance the viability of neurons under a pathological circumstance by secreting some neurotrophins. So the neuroprotection of MSCs can provide a new method of the treatment on retinopathy that it possible to promote cells survial and functional recovery.Here we make a brief review on the secretory function of neurotrophin and neuroprotective effects of MSCs on retinal cells and its application in the treatment of retinal disease.

The traditional Najiafa (day-prescription of acupoints) can be classified into two schools of YAN Ming-guang and XU Feng. The author studied the YAN Ming-guang and XU Feng Najia fa from the aspects of the academic source, selection of points, existing researches and current application. When compared between the two schools, it is held that Najia fa of YAN Ming-guang school more accords with the law of point selection according to Ziwu Liuzhu Zhenfa (acupuncture based on the midnight-noon and ebb-flow doctrine) in following the original doctrine, selection of points on the base of day-prescription, and time-meridian relation of Sanjiao (triple energizer) and Pericardium meridians. Therefore, it is concluded that the YAN's Najia fa should not be neglected and forgotten. Its inheritage and further study should be carried out so as to enrich the ways of study as well as the prevention and treating methods in clinic.

Objective To describe the anxiety status of new nurses in emergency department so as to put forward strategies for nursing management. Methods Thirty-two new nurses (working time less than 2 years) from emergency department of two class Ⅲ- A general hospitals in Xiamen were surveyed by using Zung self-rating anxiety scale (SAS). Results The average of SAS total score showed significant difference from that of the Chinese norm, but no significant difference could be seen in the score of SAS be-tween college and baccalaureate nurses.Nurses with different working length showed significant difference in SAS score. Conclusions Anxiety status of new nurses in emergency department is serious, nursing man-agers should make more efforts to conduct mental health education and improve psychological quality of new nurses in emergency department to relieve their anxiety.

Cancer stem cell niche provides a relatively stable microenvironment for cancer stem cell (CSC)existence,proliferation and differentiation.This microenvironment consists of kinds of cells,stroma and cytokines, etc. Within it , CSC can resist chemoradiotherapy. It has been shown that destruction of the microen vironment can significantly enhance the effect of chemoradiotherapy and improve prognosis of cancer patients.

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has been developed for two decades in order to treat portal hypertension accompanying with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage and refractory ascites.TIPS may cause the development of hepatic encephalopathy (HE).TIPS induces portalsystemic shunt and leads to hemodynamics chaos. Hepatic encephalopathy belongs to the complications of the portal hypertension. There are many possible predictors of the post-TIPS HE. The relationship between TIPS and HE was reviewed.

Procalcitonin is a biomarker to diagnose the extent and severity of systemic bacterial infection.Procalcitonin is applied in diagnosis and treatment of systemic inflammatory response syndrome and severe acute pancreatitis.The article reviews application of procalcitonin in clinical surgery and guides use of anti-bacterial agents.

Objective To investigate the risk factors associated with surgical site infection (SSI) in patients with breast cancer,and provide the basis for preventing SSI.Methods Case-control study was used to investigate the clinical data of 630 patients of breast cancer retrospectively by single factor and multiple factors regressive analysis.Results The incidence rate of SSI was 3.65％ (23/630),the main pathogenic bacteria was staphylococcus aureus (14/20),single factor regressive analysis showed that granulocytopenia associated with chemotherapy,diabetes mellitus,time of drainage were the risk factors of SSI (P ＜ 0.05).Multiple factors regressive analysis showed that granulocytopenia associated with chemotherapy,time of drainage were the independent risk factors of SSI (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Granulocytopenia associated with chemotherapy,time of drainage are the independent risk factors of SSI and comprehensive preventive measures should be taken to control the incidence rate of SSI.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nateglinide,a new antidiabetic agent,in the treatment of type 2 diabetes.Methods 276 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus,in accordance with the table of random number method,were divided into the nateglinide group 138 cases,repaglinide group 138 cases.The nateglinide group was given 30 mg nateglinide,and repaglinide group was given 0.5 mg repaglinide,3 times a day,oral administration 15min before meal.12 weeks for one period of treatment.FBG,2h PBG,HbAlc and security index were detected before and after treatment.Results After treatment,FBG,2h PBG and HbAlc indexes in the two groups were lower than before treatment,the differences were statistically significant(all P ＜ 0.05).The differences were not significant compared between the two groups (all P ＞ 0.05).No serious adverse events occurred in two groups.Conclusion Nateglinide can effectively control fasting and postprandial blood sugar in patients with type 2 diabetes.It is safe and reliable and worthy clinical promotion.
