Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 1981;0(03):-
One hundred fifteen surgical specimens were studied by gram-stain, aerobic and anaerobic cultu- res, as well as gas chromatography, respectively. One hundred seventy six strains, including ninety five aerobic and eighty one anaerobic strains, were isolated. The results suggested that diagnosis of anaerobic bacteria by gas chromatography could be accomplished within 1 h. The specificity of this method was 98.11% and the sensitivity, 90.47%. In addition, the early identification of anaerobic bacteria could be made also. There is higher value for rapid diagnosis of anaerobic infection with gas chromatography.

To study the clinical features and diagnosis of synovitis,acne,pustulosis,hyperostosis,osteitis syndrome(SAPHO) syndrome.One case of SAPHO syndrome was reported and the related data of SAPHO syndrome were reviewed.The main clinical features of the patient were articulatio carpi synovitis,acne,cervical rib hyperostosis,articulatio sternoclavicularis and osteitis,So the diagnosis of SAPHO syndrome was made.Though SAPHO syndrome is rare with yet unknown prevalence,it still can be seen in clinical practice,and can be diagnosed by careful examination.
5.Acupuncture and tuina clinical thoughts of "treating the back from abdomen" for low back pain.
Chinese Acupuncture & Moxibustion 2015;35(7):715-717
In clinical treatment, it is found that certain patients always have some positive reaction points those are relevant with low back pain in the abdomen area. When the simple treatment on the low back is ineffective, the efficacy could be significantly improved if acupuncture or tuina is performed at the abdomen areas, which is called "regulating yin to treat yang", or "treating the back from abdomen". In this paper, with the diagnosis and treatment method of "treating the back from abdomen" for low back pain as principal line, the detailed manipulation is explained for low back pain that is induced by TCM meridian diseases or modern anatomy, which could open the methods for clinical treatment of low back pain and enrich the therapeutic options.

AIM: To study the effects of 9 (4 Ethoxycarboxylyphenoxy) 6,7 dimethoxy 1,2,3,4 tetrahydro acridine (EDT) on learning and memory abilities. METHODS: The step down test and Y maze test were adopted in this study. RESULTS: EDT ( 2.5 , 5, 10 mg?kg -1 , ig? 5 d ) dose dependently improved the impairment of memory acquisition, memory consolidation and memory retrieval induced by scopolamine, NaNO 2 and alcohol in mice. CONCLUSION: EDT can improve learning and mermory ability in mice.
7.lnfluence of preoperative artificial tears on tear film after phacoemulsification on dry eye of diabetes patients
International Eye Science 2015;(5):843-845
?AlM: To discuss the artificial tears on the tear film of diabetic patients with dry eye preoperatively, and the influence on the tear film’s fuctional after phacoemulsification.
?METHODS: Fifty-four diabetic patients with dry eye (60 eyes) were followed up before phacoemulsification. Preoperatively, group A ( 30 eyes in 28 cases ) was treated with Hydroxyl lndican eye drops and group B (30 eyes in 26 cases) was not treated. Postoperatively, both group A and B were treated with Tobramycin Dexamethasone eye drops, Oprah Winfrey lbuprofen eye drops and Hydroxyl lndican eye drops. Dry eye symptoms, break up time (BUT), SchirmerItest (SIt), fluorescein stain test ( Fl ) were measured at 3d preoperatively, and 1, 7, 30, 90d postoperatively.
? RESULTS: At 3d preoperatively, there was no statistical differences between the two groups for dry eye symptoms, BUT, S I t, Fl ( P>0. 05 ). At 1 and 7d postoperatively, there were significant statistical differents between the two groups for dry eye symptoms (P<0. 05). And dry eye symptoms scores of group A were less than that of group B. At 1, 7, 30d postoperatively, BUT was longer, FL was less, Slt was increased in group A, with significant statistical differences (all P<0. 05). At 90d postoperatively, two groups of dry eye symptoms, BUT, S I t, Fl had no statistical significance (P>0. 05).
? CONCLUSlON: Using artificial tears before phacoemulsification can improve symptoms of the diabetic patients with dry eye and accelerate the recovery of the tear film.
8.Timed morphological changes of human hepatocytes L-02 cultured at high density by the support of spherical porous chitosan microcarriers
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2015;(12):1924-1930
Abstract BACKGROUND: Recently, microcarrier culture as a high concentration cel culture technology has been used in hepatocyte culturein vitro. OBJECTIVE:To periodicaly observe the morphological changes of human hepatocyte L-02 cultured by the spherical porous chitosan microcarrier. METHODS:The self-made spherical porous chitosan microcarrier sample as a support to culture human hepatocytes L-02 acted as experimental group; non-spherical porous chitosan microcarrier as a support to culture human hepatocytes L-02 as control group. Cels in two groups underwent cel count at regular time, and the morphological changes were observed in the experimental group, including inverted phase contrast biological microscope observation and scanning electron microscope observation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The quantity of cultured cels in the two groups was increased in the first 3 days and reached the peak at the 3rd day. The cel quantity in the experiment group was obviously higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the three samples of the experimental group (P > 0.05). The quantity of hepatocytes adhered to the microcarrier surface was gradualy increased in the former 3 days under the inverted phase contrast biological microscope. There were lots of cel clusters on the surface of a greater part of microcarriers, with the total survival rate of more than 90%, and hepatocytes kept a good morphological structure. Under the scanning electron microscope, lots of hepatocytes adhered tightly to each other on the surface and section of microcarrier as wel as inside the microcarrier. It is indicated that the self-made spherical porous chitosan microcarrier as a support in three-dimensional environment can undergo cel culture with high concentration.
9.Current progress of the prevalence of albuminuria and its influencing factors
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2014;37(12):973-976
Currently the detection of albumin excretion rate is widely used to screen early renal injury.In recent years,there are many researches about the prevalence of albuminuria in the general population around the world,showing the high prevalence of albuminuria in the general population,and indicating that the increased albumin in urine is significantly correlated with obesity,abnormal lipid metabolism,abnormal glucose metabolism,hypertension and life habits.Meanwhile,numerous studies find that albuminuria is an independent risk factor for the progression and risk evaluation of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality,it can be a useful predictor of cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality in the general population.
