With the development of modern medicine,to see a doctor is no longer a simple process of diagnosis or taking drugs.Human have deeply recognized medical science and health from a simple biomedical model to a social,psychological and biomedical model.On the one hand,people seek help from medical science.On the other hand,people fear that malpractice could occur.It has been in a love-hate mentality for people to seek medical and legal relief.In the new era,physician-patient relationship needs to be recognized again from medical staff,patients and legal angles.The combination of medicine and law is the requirement of development of the times.No matter how strong the law is,and no matter how much we hope the legislation is from strength to strength,moderation is still the virtues of the law.Medical perspective is still required in the examination of medical activity.

Objective To explore the effect of different frequencies interference of electoracupuncture on acute stress of C57BL/6 mice. Methods Thirty male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into model group,2Hz electroacupunture group and 100 Hz electroacupunture group.After interfering 7 days by electroacupuncture,all the mice were carried forced swimming tests and tail suspension test,and the immobility time in 5 minutes were taken down. Results The immobility time of forced swimming test and tail suspension test of 2 Hz eletroacupuncture group(32.00±14.73)s,(72.50±20.44)s was shorter than those of 100 Hz electoracupuncture group(145.60±34.62)s,(124.22±21.67)s( P <0.05); and the immobility time of 2 Hz eletroacupuncture group was shorter than that of model group(129.50±33.94)s,(142.23±20.05)s( P <0.05); but the immobility time of 100 Hz electroacupuncture group was no difference with that of model group( P >0.05). Conclusions The effect of 2 Hz eletroacupuncture could improve the behaviors of the acute stress of C57BL/6 mice and had the more effectiveness on anti-depression.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of sodium tanshinone IIA sulfonate(STS)in the treatment of ad-vanced schistosomiasis. Methods Fifty cases with advanced schistosomiasis admitted to the Touzao Township Hospital of Dong-tai City during the period from November 2012 to November 2013 were treated with STS for 10 days,and the internal diameter of the portal vein,levels of ALT,AST,γ-GT,PIIIP,CIV,HA and LN were measured and compared before and after the adminis-tration of STS. Results The mean levels of all serological parameters except HA were within the normal range before STS treat-ment,while the highest positive rate was detected inγ-GT(26.0%)and HA(54.0%). Following the STS treatment,the mean lev-els of all parameters and the positive rates reduced,with the greatest reduction observed inγ-GT(36.7%)and HA(37.8%);how-ever,the mean HA level was still higher than the normal range. The mean internal diameter of the portal vein reduced from(10.5± 1.7)mm before the STS treatment to(9.8±1.3)mm after the STS administration,with a significant diffrtence(P<0.05). Conclu-sion STS appears effective in the treatment of advanced schistosomiasis.

The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is a noninvasive method for respiratory mechanics measurement. For the FOT, external signals (e.g. forced oscillations around 4-40 Hz) are used to drive the respiratory system, and the mechanical characteristic of the respiratory system can be determined with the linear system identification theory. Thus, respiratory mechanical properties and components at different frequency and location of the airway can be explored by specifically developed forcing waveforms. In this paper, the theory, methodology and clinical application of the FOT is reviewed, including measure ment theory, driving signals, models of respiratory system, algorithm for impedance identification, and requirement on apparatus. Finally, the future development of this technique is also discussed.

The ambulatory EEG recorder designed in this paper can continuously record 24-hour EEG signals on 18 channels. C8051F020, a kind of mixed-signal ISP FLASH MCU, controls all the functions such as sampling, storage and many others. The 12-bit ADC in C8051F020 samples the EEG signal amplified by the preamplifier. At the same time, the EEG signal of every channel can be selected through the keyboard to be displayed on LCD so that the working status can be detected. After the system is ready, the signals sampled during 24 hours are stored into the CompactFlash card as FAT16 files.

Objective To research the effect of molecular chimeric mice pre-T cells on proliferation ability of allogeneic mouse T cells.Methods The MHC-Ⅰ gene (H-2Kband H-2Db gene) were extracted and amplified by RT-PCR,the identified pre-T cells were transfected by the constructed eukaryotic expression vector of C57BL/6mouse MHC-I (pIRES-H-2Db and pIRES-H-2Kb),non-transfected group and sham pIRES-transfected control group were set.The molecular chimeric cells were transfused back to BALB/c mouse.After 7 days,T lymphocyte cells of each group were extracted,the ability of molecular chimeric cells inducing spleen T lymphocyte response to allogeneic T cells was observed through mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC).Results Sequencing of the plasmid we have constructed showed that insertion sequence contained C57BL/6 mice H-2Kb and H-2Db series which could be retrieved from GenBank.The result of flow cytometry analysis indicated that H-2Kb and H-2Db protein had an increased expression in pre-T cells,the difference with other two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05).The result of MLC demonstrated that the stimulation index (SI) of T lymphocyte in co-injection transfected pIRES-H-2Kb and pIRES-H-2Db pre-T cells group (0.764±0.074) were significantly decreased compared with non-transfected group(0.983±0.081)and sham pIRES-transfected group(0.994±0.142) (P<0.05).Conclusions The molecular chimeric pre-T cells infusion can reduce spleen T lymphocyte response to allogeneic T cells and it may induce immune tolerance in vivo.

Objective To discuss the application of C-arm CT scanning technology in performing transcatheter arterial chemoembolization for hepatic cancer.Methods Seventy-seven patients of hepatic cancer were treated with selective transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE),which was followed by C-arm CT scanning to observe the embolization effect.C-arm CT scanning was also performed before TACE in 13 cases.Three-dimension reconstruction of the images was carried out on Integris 3D-RA workstation.The therapeutic results were evaluated.Results The embolization state of both the peripheral margin and the body of the tumor could be clearly displayed on CT scans in all 77 patients.Some tiny liver lesions were also detected in 3cases.Conclusion C-arm CT scanning technology is a newly-developed high-tech examination.This examination is very helpful for making the proper operation scheme and for evaluating the curative effect of intravascular intervention.Compared to the traditional CT scanning,C-arm CT scanning can provide more accurate information and stereoscopic image of the lesions,therefore,the whole course of the interventional procedure can be entirely under the operator's control and the curative effect can be evaluated at any time during the operation.C-arm CT scanning can be effectively employed in interventional therapy for multisystemic disorders.
