Objective To study the probability of evaluating myocardial tissue perfusion by corrected TIMI frame count (CTFC) after successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods Sixty-three patients with their first acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who accepted primary coronary intervention were recruited. All these patients got TIMI 3 grade flow. CTFC was measured after successful PCI in these patients. Wall Motion Score Index (WMSI) assessed by two-dimensional echocardiography before and one month after PCI and the correlation studied between CTFC and WMSI. Results According to CTFC the patients were divided into two groups. Improvement of WMSI in the TIMI 3 fast group was significantly greater than that of the TIMI 3 slow group. CTFC had a significant correlation with the change in WMSI. Elapsed time from the onset of symptoms to reperfusion in the TIMI slow group was significantly longer than that of the TIMI fast group. Conclusion CTFC is a quantitative, and reproducible index of coronary blood flow. Lower CTFC is associated with greater functional recovery and could supply evidence for additional adjunctive treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To study the inhibitory effect of Danggui Buxue Tang (DBT), a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine for supplementing blood, on tumor growth in tumor-bearing mice after inoculation of EL-4 cells, and its immune mechanism as well as its synergic effect in reducing toxicity of cytoxan (CTX). METHODS: Experiment was carried out in tumor-bearing mice after inoculation of EL-4 cells. The mice were randomly divided into four groups after 7 days of the inoculation: untreated group, DBT-treated group [24 g/(kg x d)], CTX-treated group [7.5 mg/(kg x d)] and DBT plus CTX-treated group, with another ten normal mice as control. Inhibitory rate of tumor growth, survival time, immune function and variability of blood cells were measured in the mice during the experiment. RESULTS: After treatment of relevant interventions for 15 days, the tumor in the DBT-treated group, CTX-treated group and DBT plus CTX-treated group grew slower than the untreated group (P<0.05). Murine survival time in the DBT-treated group, CTX-treated group and DBT plus CTX-treated group was lengthened as compared with that in the untreated group (P<0.05). Compared with the untreated group, all kinds of immune indexes in the DBT-treated group and DBT plus CTX-treated group were significantly improved (P<0.05), while the immune indexes in the CTX-treated group were decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the CTX-treated group, all kinds of immune indexes in the DBT plus CTX-treated group were significantly improved (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: DBT can enhance the immune function in tumor-bearing mice and the inhibitory effect of DBT on tumor growth is related to the enhanced immune response. DBT can also increase the therapeutic effects and reduce the side effects of CTX.

It described the status quo of the healthcare system in South Korea, and the milestones of the country to achieve universal coverage of social medical insurance. The paper presented in focus the development from multiple social medical insurance funds to a universal social medical insurance system in South Korea, and analyzed those serious setbacks including monopolizing private medical organizations, lack of first-visit and referral system, and excessive percentage of personal payment, as a result of unparallel progress of the reform of medical insurance and that of healthcare system. Authors hope to be inspirational for the ongoing reforms in the social medical insurance system and healthcare system, in an effort to avoid likewise mistakes.

International experiences can provide evidences for general practitioners ( GPs) system building in China. The paper reviews the development of GP systems from several typical countries of different insurance sys-tems, including national health care systems, commercial medical insurance systems, and social medical insurance systems, etc. The factors that influence GPs systems are analyzed. It is found that the control force of health security system on health system, the control force of specialists on health system, the incentive mechanism of general prac-tice, and the development of general medicine influence the establishment of GPs systems. Finally, this paper pro-vide several policy implications:First, in order to meet the needs of public health, a GPs system with Chinese char-acteristics should be established;Second, the core values of general medicine should be promoted to provide public support for the establishment of a GPs system;Third, a sound incentive mechanism should be established for the de-velopment of a GPs system to improve the status of general practitioners;Fourth, the division of general practitioners and specialists should be promoted to improve the development of general medicine.

Many provinces are carrying on Public Hospital Personnel Filing System Reform while facing a series of barriers cause a slow progress or the results not up to expectations.Supporting policies' adjustment is called to ensure the smooth progress of the reform.

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF),platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) and complements play key roles in the pathogenesis of age-related macular degeneration (AMD).Pegaptanib,the first therapeutic aptamer against VEGF165,has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of US for the treatment of exudative AMD.Another two aptamers El0030 and ARC1905,each target PDGF-B and complement C5 respectively,are undergoing clinical trials.Recent trends to treat AMD are combined therapies targeting multiple key molecules in the pathogenesis of AMD;aptamers against multiple targets may become the preferred drug for AMD.
