Journal of Kunming Medical University 2013;(11):128-132
Objective To improve the quality and santdard of medical French bilingual teaching and promote the learning ability of the students in medical universities. Medthods Analogy between English and French was applied to the intervention of bilingual teaching in the clinical students who were learning medical French. The advantages and disadvantages were analyzed.Results The students could apply their prior English to medical French learning and make progress in both languages. A series problems were found during the practice:arrangement of teaching contents, lack of teaching materials and shortage of teaching staff. Conclusion Analogy between English and French is an effective teaching method in both foreign language teaching and bilingual teaching. But the expected teaching goals can be achieved only by formulating reasonable teaching contents and strategies and mproving teachers’ quality.
2.Celecoxib inhibits proliferation of polycystic kidney cyst lining epithelial cells through blocking mitogen-activated protein kinase signal transduction pathways
Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 1985;0(06):-
Objective:To investigate whether celecoxib(CXB), a specific COX-2 inhibitor,can inhibit the proliferation of cyst lining epithelial cells through blocking mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK) signal transduction pathway.Methods: Primarily cultured cells were treated with different concentrations of CXB(0,2.5?10~(-6),5?10~(-6),1?10~(-5),2?10~(-5),3?10~(-5),4?10~(-5),5?10~(-5)mol/L) and the proliferative status was evaluated by BrdU assay.The levels of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA);the production of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) and phosphoMAPK were measured by real-time reverse transcription-PCR assay;and the expression of PCNA,MAPK and phospho-MAPK protein was detected by Western blotting.Results: BrdU assay revealed that CXB inhibited cell growth in a concentration-dependent manner;the maximum inhibition rate([63.9?1.2]%) was found when cells were treated with 2?10~(-5) mol/L CXB for 24 h.VEGF secretion by cyst lining epithelial cell was reduced by CXB in a concentration and time-dependent manner.The mRNA and protein levels of PCNA,phospho-MAPK in CXBtreated group were lower than those in control group(with no CXB treatment).Conclusion: CXB can obviously inhibit the proliferation of cyst lining epithelial cell and the secretion of VEGF,which might be through interfering with the phosphorylation of MAPK and partly blocking MAPK signal transduction pathway.
3.Complexity analysis of electroencephalogram in patients with Alzheimer's disease and mild cognitive impairment
Chinese Journal of Neurology 2013;46(10):687-691
Objective To investigate the Lemple-Zie complexity (LZC) characteristics in patients with Alzheimer' s disease(AD),mild cognitive impairment(MCI) and normal elderly,and the possibility of differentiating AD,MCI and normal elderly by LZC.Methods Electroencephalogram (EEG) of 30 AD patients,30 MCI patients and 20 normal elderly with eyes closed in rest state were recorded.In acquired EEG data,2048 points(10.14 s)of each channel were selected for LZC calculation by Matlab 7.0 software.Results (1) The average LZC values in AD,MCI and control groups were 0.396 ± 0.036,0.470 ±0.051,0.523 ±0.055 respectively.As compared with control group,the values in AD and MCI groups were decreased (F =43.092,P =0.000).(2) LZC values of AD in all channels (from 0.373 ± 0.042 to 0.430 ±0.083),whole brain,bilateral hemispheres,frontal and temporal areas were significantly lower than those in the normal group (from 0.498 ± 0.067 to 0.566 ± 0.059 ; t =3.602-8.747,P =0.000-0.010),and showed the significant decline(> 23%)in bilateral anterior middle temporal,frontal areas,the left parietal area.(3) Except the T6 channel,LZC values of AD groups in the remaining channels(from 0.373 ±0.042 to 0.418±0.063),the whole brain,bilateral hemispheres,frontal and temporal areas were significantly lower than those in the MCI group(from 0.455 ± 0.072 to 0.489 ± 0.063 ; in T5 channel,t =2.038,P =0.041,the others t=4.178-7.424,all P=0.000).(4) LZC values of MCI groups in the whole brain,bilateral hemispheres,temporal areas,parietal areas,the left frontal area were notably lower than those in the control group.Conclusions With the decline of the cognitive function,the EEG complexity value shows the parallel change.It suggests that the EEG complexity value can reflect the change of brain function in the duration from normal age to dementia in some degree; The MCI patients with abnormal LZC values in temporal and frontal lobes have a certain degree relation with the occurrence of AD.
4.Silver ion dressing effects on healing of chronic wound
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2013;(42):7494-7500
BACKGROUND:Silver ion dressing can reduce tissue necrosis, accelerate the epithelial formation, relieve the patient’s pain during the treatment, and strengthen various growth factors for wound repair, which is based on the theory of wet healing theory. It has obvious advantages for chronic wound healing, such as anti-infection and promoting wound granulation and epithelial hyperplasia.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the efficacy of silver ion dressing used in healing of chronic wound.
METHODS:A total of 40 patients who had chronic wounds were selected from Tangshan Branch Hospital of Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command. Al cases were divided into two groups. The treatment group was treated with silver ion dressing, and the control group was treated with routine dressing. Secretions extracted from wound were used for bacterial culture prior to and 7, 14, and 21 days after treatment. Healing condition and velocity were observed and wound pain was assessed using visual analog scale.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The detection rate of wound bacteria in the treatment group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). And the time of healing was shorter in the treatment group than the control group (P<0.05). Wound pain during dressing change was relieved (P<0.05). Medical costs showed no difference between the two groups (P>0.05). No adverse reaction occurred in the two groups. These findings indicate that silver ion dressing used in chronic wound healing can prevent infection and promote wound granulation or epithelial hyperplasia. It can effectively promote wound healing and has no bad reaction.

Small intestinal submucosa has been applied in a variety of areas of basic and clinical study with its Characteristics of anti-infective and Low immunogenicity and so on.However,it is common to find the shrinkage and other problems in some tissue repair,and affects the functional recovery of repaired tissue to a certain extent.Thus,it is still a question to be resolved that how to avoid the shrinkage and other adverse effects after tissue repair.This paper provides a reliable basis for further correct understanding of the SIS's capacity of tissue repair by reviewing and summarying its characteristics and present situation of tissue repair,especially put forwarding the shrinkage problem.
6.Occlusion on implants---Is there a problem?
Journal of Practical Stomatology 2015;(2):266-277
Oral rehabilitation restores form and function and impacts on general health.Teeth provide a discriminating sense of touch and directional specificity for occlusal perception,management of food with mastication and swallowing,and awareness of its texture and hard-ness.Peripheral feedback for control of jaw muscles includes the enamel-dentine-pulp complex and mechanoreceptors in the periodontal tis-sues.The implications of feedback from periodontal and other intra-oral mechanoreceptors as well as changes in central representation are significant for function and adaptation to oral rehabilitation.With implants,in the absence of the periodontium and periodontal mechanore-ceptor feedback,fine motor control of mastication is reduced,but patients are still able to function adequately.Further,there is no signifi-cant difference in function with full-arch fixed prostheses on teeth in comparison with implants.Predictable implant outcomes depend on bone support.Optimum restoration design appears to be significant for bone remodelling and bone strains around implants with occlusal loading. Finite element analysis data confirmed load concentrations at the coronal bone around the upper section of the implant where bone loss is com-monly observed clinically.Load concentration increased with steeper cusp inclination and broader occlusal table and decreased with central fossa loading and narrower occlusal table size.It is recommended that occlusal design should follow a narrow occlusal table,with central fossa loading in intercuspal contact and low cusp inclination to minimise lateral loading in function and parafunction.Acknowledging these features should address potential problems associated with the occlusion in implant therapy.

China Pharmacy 2017;28(16):2286-2288
OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for reasonably designing package inserts of ointment for manufacturers. METH-ODS:According to items included in Management Regulation for Package Insert and Label and Specification for Chemicals and Bi-ological Products for Treatment,labeled items in package inserts of 51 kinds of ointment for external use during Jan.-Jun. 2016 in our hospital were analyzed. RESULTS:Among the 51 kinds of ointment,39 were domestic varieties and 12 were imported variet-ies. In the package inserts of 39 domestic varieties,items with lower labeling rates were overdose,pharmacokinetics,use guid-ance,pharmacology and toxicology,with labeling rates of 2.6%,5.1%,15.4%,28.2%;while the labeling rates of imported vari-eties were 16.7%,83.3%,75.0%,100%. Compared with package inserts of imported ointment,composition,dosage and usage, adverse reactions,contraindications,precautions,drug interactions,medication for special populations were not enough detailed in domestic ointments. CONCLUSIONS:It is suggested that manufacturers consult medicine experts, list all auxiliary materials through Management Regulation for Drug Description and Label,refine and improve the labeling contents of dosage and usage,ad-verse reactions,precautions,medication for special populations,pharmacology and toxicology,overdose,etc. In addition,admin-istrative departments should strengthen the regulatory approval efforts.
