Study of the strategic objectives chosen by hospitals from the perspective of stakeholders is now under the spotlight of researchers at large. To identify whether there exist differences in strategic objectives among various groups in the hospital and probe into the causes, the author called into play the competing values framework as the analysis tool. An evidenced-based study on public hospitals in Hangzhou identified marked differences on choices of strategic objectives among various internal stakeholders in the hospital For example, hospital administrators tend to focus on internal control, while medical doctors tend to focus on interactions between the hospital and the external environment. On this basis, further studies are proposed.

Objective To investigate the repeated dose toxicity of doxorubicin liposome injection and doxorubicin injection in rats. Methods Ninety SD rats ( body weight 180-220 g, male:female=1:1 ) were divided into 3 groups (30 rats in each group), and were administered intravenously with physiological saline, doxorubicin liposome injection (1 mg·kg-1 ) and doxorubicin injection ( 1 mg·kg-1 ) , respectively, once every three days for thirteen times. The body weight, blood biochemistry, hematology, organ coefficient and histopathology were analyzed for the overall toxicity assessment. Results The rats administered with doxorubicin liposome injection (1 mg/kg) showed hair loss and skin ulcer, significantly reduced growth of body weight, increased levels of urea nitrogen ( BUN ) , alanine aminotransferase ( ALT ) , blood platelet ( PLT ) , and kidney and heart coefficients, decreased thymus and testicular coefficients, myofibrillar rupture and lysis, and partial loss of cell nuclei, hyaline casts in the renal convoluted tubules, interstitial edema and loss of spermatogenic cells in the testicular tubules. Compared with the doxorubicin liposome injection group, similar abnormal changes were also observed in the doxorubicin injection group, but the hair loss and skin ulcer were milder and the heart and kidney toxicities were severer. Conclusions Compared with doxorubicin injection, the doxorubicin liposome injection causes milder heart and kidney toxicity but more serious skin toxicity.

Adoption of the board of directors system in a public hospital is conducive to straightening out its internal management system and enables its head to more effectively exercise his power of supervision while giving full play to his functions. In addition, when major issues are concerned, decision-making is more democratic and scientific, reducing disputes over trifles. The board of directors system may after all be accepted as an effective form of management.

BACKGROUND:Sodium alginate and chitosan are the polycation and polyanion natural polymer materials respectively, and they can be crosslinking agents complementing each other to form composite gel and avoid the cytotoxicity resulting from some common crosslinking agents .
OBJECTIVE:To prepare the chitosan-sodium alginate composite gel and evaluate its cytotoxicity in vitro. METHODS:Chitosan was dissolved in 0.25 mol/L acetic acid to make a 30 g/L mass concentration solution, and 0.1 mol/L NaOH solution was added to neutralize its acidity. Neutralization of the chitosan solutions leads to the formation of a precipitate in ultrasmal particles. Then the chitosan and 3%sodium alginate solution in deionized water were mixed in 1:1 volume ratio by high frequency oscil ating to produce composite gel. The composite gel were detected by scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry after freeze-drying. The 24-hour and 72-hour leaching solutions of composite gel, 24-hour and 72-hour leaching solutions of polyethylene and phenol solution were added to the L-929 cells’ culture medium respectively in order to evaluate the cytotoxicity of composite gel in vitro.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The results of Fourier transform infrared spectrometry showed the variation of characteristic peak values of composite gel which were different from sodium alginate and chitosan;and under scanning electron microscope, a spatial network structure formed with abundant intervals. Result of the cytotoxicity valuation was qualified for the chitosan-sodium alginate composite gel. These findings indicate that the chitosan-sodium alginate composite gel can be used as tissue engineering scaffold materials.

BACKGROUND:The mechanical index is an important method for the evaluation of the therapeutic efficiency of drug treatment for osteoporosis animal models. OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of various drug treatments on osteoporosis through a mechanical performance test about the femoral compression of rats. METHODS: Thirty-six Wistar female rats were randomized into six groups: normal control group, model group, Dan Qiparticles group, alpha-D3 group, premarin group, ipriflavone group, with six rats in each group. Osteoporosis models were made in al groups except for the normal control group, and after modeling, the rats in different groups were treated withDan Qi particles, alpha-D3 group, premarin and ipriflavone, respectively. After 15 weeks, the rats were kiled by abdominal aortic bloodletting to take out the left and right femurs that were placed on a universal testing machine to perform a compressive test at a speed of 5 mm/min. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The maximum load, maximum stress, maximum displacement, maximum strain, and elastic modulus were significantly lower in the model group than the other four groups (P < 0.05). There was no difference in different mechanical parameters between alpha-D3 group and model group as wel as between Dan Qi particles group and normal control group (P> 0.05). These findings indicate that osteoporosis leads to the variation of compression mechanical properties of the femur. There are good compression mechanical properties of the femur after treatment with premarin and ipriflavone, andDan Qi particles has the best effect.

Objective To observe the repeat administration toxicity of Guanxinning Injection in rats.Methods Totally 120 rats (males and females) were randomly divided into vehicle control group and three Guanxinning Injection groups with different dosages (3.40,1.70,and 0.85 g/kg).Rats were administered with Guanxinning Injection by consecutive intravenous injection for 13 weeks.Besides the general conditions were observed,the related indexes were detected,such as body weight,the routine control of blood,hepatic function,renal function,the metabolism condition of lipids,the glycometabolism indexes,and histopathology analysis were determined at 13 weeks of treatments and 4 weeks after the withdrawal,respectively.Results Rats in the Guanxinning Injection group at 3.40,1.70 g/kg apperance shortness of breath,unsteady gait,lying motionless,and other symptoms.There was no obvious abnormal reaction in the 0.85 g/kg dose group.There were two male rats in the Guanxinning Injection group at 3.40 g/kg died at about week 4 of treatments,and there was no death in the 0.85 and 1.70 g/kg dose groups.Compared with vehicle control group,the related indexes of blood,blood biochemistry,organ relative quality,and histopathological showed no obvious abnormalities in Guanxinning Injection 0.85 and 1.70 g/kg group.The levels of urea nitrogen (BUN) and the relative weight of kidney in Guanxinning Injection 3.40 g/kg group were significantly higher than those in vehicle control group at 13 weeks.The change of these parameters regained to normal at 4 weeks after withdrawal and the rest of the detection index showed no obvious abnormality in 3.40 g/kg dase group.Conclusion Intravenous administration of Guanxinning Injection for 13 weeks at high dose could induce reversible damage to kidney.

Objective To investigate the distribution of Malassezia species in lesional and non-lesion-al sites of patients with pityriasis versicolor(PV),species-variation in different anatomic sites and in lesions with different pigmentation,and the relationship between various Malassezia species and severity and age of PV patients.Methods A total of629skin specimens taken by sterile adhesive tape from the lesions and non-lesional skin were inoculated on media containing rapeseed oil in113patients with PV.Isolated colonies were identified to species based on physiological and morphological characteristics.Results The isolation rates of Malassezia spp.were not significantly different from both lesions and corresponding non-lesional skin.Among non-lesional sites,the isolation rate was significantly higher in forehead and trunk than that in upper and lower extremities.Five species were identified out of565strains obtained from the patients,including M.sympodialis(44.78%),M.furfur(32.94%),M.globosa(11.68%),M.obtusa(5.84%)and M.restricta(4.76%).Two dif-ferent species were isolated simultaneously from27sites.There was no obvious difference in species distribu-tion patterns between lesions and non-lesional sites.M.restricta was isolated from forehead exclusively.Species-variation was closely linked to lesions with different pigmentation and the age of patients,not to the severity of disease.Conclusion There is neither statistical difference of Malassezia isolation rate and species distribution between lesions and non-lesional skin,nor correlation between disease severity and species-varia-tion.The anatomic sites,the diversity of pigmentation pattern and the age of patients seem to be associated with different Malassezia species.
