1.Systematic assessment of acupuncture treatment on eczema
International Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2010;32(3):250-251
Objective To analyze the efficacy and safety of acupuncture treatment on eczema for providing the objective and reliable evaluation.Methods Cochrane systematic review methods were adopted.The author searched data in the VIP database(1987~2009),Qing Hua Tong Fang database(1997~2009),and China Academic Journals' Full-text Database(CNKJ)(1997~2009)concerned on acupuncture treatment of eczema and evaluated by RCT. Odds ratio(OR) and 95%confidence interval(95%C1)were used as the statistic efficacy for analysis.The quality of the papers was analyzed according to the four quality evaluation criteria in Cochrane Handbook and then meta-analysis(Meta)by RevMan4.2.2 software.Results There were 19 relevant Papers of randomized controlled trials(RCT)and non-randomized controlled trial (CCT)met the included criteria Meta analysis showed that there were statistically significant difference between acupuncture and conventional treatment of eczema.Conclusion Acupuncture treatment can improve the efficiency and reduce the recurrence rate of eczema.However,due to relatively low methodological trial adopted in these included papers,more scientific clinical trial designs were expected for provided high quality papers used for statistical analysis.
2.Preliminary application of cranial subtraction CT perfusion imaging
Chinese Journal of Interventional Imaging and Therapy 2010;7(1):43-46
Objective To investigate the possibility to obtain the cranial subtraction computed tomography perfusion imaging (sCTP) from the CTP examination, and to explore preliminary application value of sCTP. Methods Cerebral sCTP obtained from source imaging data of 11 patients (10 with stroke and 1 with brain tumor) were analyzed with subtraction software and perfusion 3 software at GE AW4.2 workstation. The parametric maps and region of interest (ROI) value of blood flow (BF), blood volume (BV), mean transit time (MTT) and/or permeability surface (PS) were generated from the CTP and sCTP imaging data respectively. Results ①The technical success rate of cranial sCTP created from CTP sources imaging data was 100%, and the post-processing time of sCTP was about from 1.0 to 2.5 h. The mappings and values of BF, BV, MTT and PS of ROI were all successfully obtained from sCTP and CTP imaging data. ②The cerebral mappings of BF, BV, MTT and PS obtained from sCTP were similar to those from CTP, which all depicted accurately the lesions and their microcirculation hemodynamics changes. ③Just like those from CTP, the values of BF, BV, MTT and PS of nidus obtained from sCTP were significantly different from those of the near and the contralateral corresponding cerebral tissues (P<0.025). Conclusion sCTP can be generated successfully with subtraction and perfusion imaging software. It is an alternative solution for functional diagnosis of stroke and brain neoplasms.

Objective To study the toxic effect of acrylamide (AA) to sperm quality of mice in order to provide scientific data to elucidate the reproductive toxicity of AA. Methods 25 male KM mice aged 7-8 weeks,25-30 g,were randomly divided into negative control group (H2O),AA groups (20,40 and 60 mg/kg) and positive control group (cyclophosphamide). The mice were treated with AA by gavage,once a day,for 5 consecutive days. The mice were sacrificed on the 14th day after the first administration,the quantity,motility,morphology of sperms were examined. Results The sperm quantity in each AA group reduced significantly (P

Objective To understand the epigenetic regulations of P16 during cellular replicative senescence and premature senescence induced by hydrogen peroxide of human embryonic lung fibroblasts(HEFs).Methods The normal HEFs were divided into young cells(22 PDL),mid-aged cells(35 PDL)and replicative senescent cells(49 PDL)during replicative senescence.The synchronously cultured 22 PDL HEFs were exposed for 2 h to 400?mol/L H_2O_2 at half confluence on daily basis.The procedure lasted for 4 consecutive days.And then the treated cells were cultured for another 7 days,called premature senescent cells.The mRNA level of P16 was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR.The methylation level in the promoter region -846~-639 bp was observed by methylation-specific PCR(MSP).The histone modifications was detected by chromatin immunoprecipitation-QPCR assay,including acetylation for H3,H4 and methylation for H3(Lys4)and H4(Lys20).Results In the process of cellular senescence,the mRNA level of P16 decreased in mid-aged cells,but increased significantly in both replicative and premature senescent cells compared with that of young cells(P
