Bronchopulmonary dysplasia( BPD) is a chronic lung disease that commonly occurs in pre-term. Since the 1980s,with the advances in perinatal care,survival rate of preterm has been raised,while BPD continues to be a significant cause of morbidity and mortality for premature infants. However,the treatment effect of BPD is unsatisfactory. It is urgent to search for innovative ways to reduce the respiratory injury that caused by BPD as well as to improve the quality of life. In recent years,mesenchymal stem cells′( MSC) research has pro-vided a new way for the treatment of BPD. This review primarily summarizes the current status of the MSC ther-apies and its possible mechanism on BPD.

Objective To explore the quality of life and its influencing factors among permanent colostomy patients. Methods Totally 219 permanent colostomy patients were recruited by convenient sampling method from January 2013 to December 2014 and investigated by Stoma Quality of life-Chinese Version, Stoma self-efficacy Scale, Stoma Self-care Scale-general version , and demographic questionnaire. Data were analyzed by SPSS 17.0. Results The score of Stoma-QoL-C among permanent colostomy patients was (54.86±12.17) points, which showed a dynamic V-type change as time went by. The quality of life of patients with colostomy for 1 to 3 years was especially low (50.46±13.77) points, P<0.01. The influencing factors of quality of life among permanent colostomy patients included self-efficacy, body image change, family members′acceptance of stoma except their spouses and self-care ability, while self-efficacy was the most important influencing factor. Conclusions The enterostomal nurses should pay more attention to the quality of life of the patients who have had colostomy for 1 to 3 years, enhance the patients self-efficacy and self-care ability, and help the patients to accept their body image changes and their family members′acceptance of stoma to improve their quality of life.

Objective To assess the relationship between fat metabolic parameters and androgen concentration in the cord blood of newborns of mothers with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods This cross-sectional study included PCOS women (n=55) and neonatal, and 40 cases with matched body mass index (BMI) were used as control. The clinical data including height, body mass, waist circumference, hip circumference of PCOS group, and length and head circumference in newborns after delivery were measured and compared. Blood lipid level, serum insulin and testosterone level were detected using umbilical artery-vein mixed cord blood after delivery. Regression analysis was used to analyze the influence factors of neonatal cholesterol and testosterone levels. Results The neonatal birth weight, head circumference, cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride level were significantly lower, birth height and testosterone level were significantly higher, in PCOS group than those of control group (P<0.05). Values of waist to hip ratio, BMI, cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and testosterone levels were significantly higher in PCOS group than those of control group (P<0.05). The insulin, cholesterol and triglyceride levels of PCOS mother were risk factors for neonatal cholesterol level(P < 0.05). The cholesterol, triglyceride and free testosterone levels of PCOS mother were risk factors for increased neonatal free testosterone (P < 0.05). Conclusion Mother with PCOS may affect fetal birth weight, head circumference and cord blood lipid metabolism, which may be related with the elevated level of testosterone during the fetal period.

The performance appraisal (PA) system establishment in scientific research institutes on traditional Chi-nese medicine (TCM) plays an important role in the management of TCM research work, which can set up both well-defined guidance and favorable appraisal regimen for scientific researchers, so that leads to the accomplishment of the scientific objectives. However, current PA system establishment has fallen seriously behind the real demand in most TCM research institutes. As a result, there is a serious lack of a mature, efficient, standardized, propagable PA system in TCM research field. In this paper, we tried to discuss the current situation and key issues in building modern PA system in TCM research institutes. The PA system development in scientific research institutes on TCM was pointed out. The PA system should be based on existed referenced similar platforms, with full consideration on professional features and Chinese culture. The PA system establishment should be with most science, systematicness, objectivity, and guidance. The PA system should also be established to evaluate the scientific researchers equitably, guide the scientific trend, provide proper institute, and promote scientific research.
