The literature courses in military medical university have two main difficulties:fuzzy teaching purpose and single teaching forms. To tackle the two difficulties,firstly,the literature courses should have specific aim which includes medical characteristics and practicality. Secondly, the teachers should choose reasonable materials and adopt effective teaching forms and then better teaching effect can be obtained.

Objective:To investigate the pathogen flora of recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis(RWC),and to discuss its treatment. Methods: Fungal culture and susceptibility tests of vaginal discharge from 108 RWC patients were performed. Sensitive drugs were selected for effective consolidating treatment for half year. Fungal smears were examined at the 3rd and 6th months after the treatment respectively. Results:①Among RWC patients,there were 81 cas es of Candida albicans(75.0%), 19 cases of C. Glabrata(17.6%), 4 cases of C. Parapsilosis(3.7%) ,2 cases of C.tropicalis (1.9%) and 2 cases of M. Krusei (1.9%). The drug susceptibility test showed that 80.6% of these 108 patients were sensitive to nystatin; 66.7% were sensitive to clotrimazole; 65.7% were sensitive to miconazole; 57.4% were sensitive to fluconazole;8.3% were sensitive to ketoconazole;6.5% were sensitive to itraconazole; 7.4% were resistant to all of the above drugs.②The score of symptom and sign was significantly improved compared with the first visit at the 3rd and 6th month after the treatment( P<0.0001). The negative rate was 76.2%(80/105) at the 3rd month after the treatment and 64.8%(68/105)at the 6th month after the treatment. Conclusions:①The rate of non Candida albicans is increased to 25% in RWC patients, and 17.60% is Candida glabrata.②During the treatment of RWC, the drugs should be selected according to fungal culture, results of susceptibility test, medication experience of patients,and attack character. The research of immune abnormality of the local vagina will be helpful to improve the cure rate of RWC.

It simplified, merged and enhanced the traditional Chinese teach-ing content, to help students to establish a standardized use of language awareness, and establish a sense of cultural identity, which helped medical students learn and appreciate literary works from all countries and famous narrative medical text, improved their moral sentiments, and aroused their empathy and empathy for the response. Under the guidance of the basic theory of spoken language, scientific, systematic, strict oral expression skills and effective doctor-patient communication skills training were carried out for medical stu-dents, so as to cultivate medical students' humanistic spirit and the scientific spirit.

Objective To eonstruct three eukaryotic expression vectors containing wilde-type hGHR gene and its mutants(hGHR-E42K and hGHR-H56R) related to congenital growth hormone insensitivity, then check their expression in CHO cells. Methods With the available PUC-hGHR vector, two mutate hGHR genes (hGHR-E42K and hGHR-H56R) were obtained through mutagenesis. Then three recombinants were cloned into eukaryotic expression vectors pcDNA3.1/zeo(+) with restriction enzymatic reactions.Then with Lipofectamine2000, we trans-fected expression vectors to CHO cells and screened the stably expressed CHO cells by Zeocin. RT-PCR and/or Western blotting were used to examine hGHR and STAT5-P. Results After sequencing, two mutations were introduced to hGHR, three eukaryotic expression vectors were identified. The transfected CHO cells expressed vd-hGHR or its mutants. Compared with hGH-wt, two mutate cells (E42K and H56R) had decreased phosphorylated STAT5 levels. Conclusion Three CHO cells which stably expresses wide type hGHR and its mutants were successfully established, E42K and H56R partly interfered the phosphorylation of STAT5.

Abstract: This study is to reveal the correlation between CNVs of HMGR, SQS1, beta-AS gene and genuineness of liquorice. Real-time PCR was used to detect the copy number of HMGR, SQS1, beta-AS gene of liquorice. According to the results, the range of the copy number variation of HMGR gene was between 1 and 3, the copy number of SQS1 gene was 1 or 2, and the copy number of beta-AS gene was only 1. On the basis of the copy number of HMGR, SQS1 and beta-AS gene, there were five groups, type A (2 + 1 + 1), type B (1 + 1 + 1), type C (3 + 2 + 1), type D (2 + 2 + 1) and type E (3 + 1 + 1). There were two types, type A and type B, in Hangjinqi of Inner Mongolia, and the ratio of A to B was 1:1.3. There were also two types, type A and type B, in Chifeng of Inner Mongolia, and the ratio of A to B was 3:1. There were four types, type A, type B, type C and type D, in Yanchi of Ningxia province, and the ratio of A to B was 1:5.1. There were three types, type A, type B and type E, in Minqin of Gansu province, and the ratio of A to B was 2:1. So CNVs mainly existed in the liquorice from Ningxia and Gansu provinces. While the genetic background of liquorice from Hangjinqi of Inner Mongolia was stabilized. The results of the experiment proved that the correlation between CNVs and origins was one of the reasons of genuineness of liquorice.

Objective To explore whether albumin corrected anion gap (ACAG) is associated with long-term mortality of sepsis patients.Methods Adult patients with a diagnosis of sepsis within the first 24 hours (from December 2013 to December 2014) admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) were included via the Sepsis database of West China Hospital Sichuan University. To record their long-term survival, patients were followed up by telephone interview one year after enrollment. ACAG was calculated according to the anion gap (AG) level within the first 24 hours admitted to ICU, and patients were divided into normal ACAG group (ACAG 12-20 mmol/L) and high ACAG group (ACAG > 20 mmol/L), and clinical characteristics and 1-year mortality were compared between groups. Patients were also divided into survivors and non-survivors according to the 1-year survival outcome, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to find independent risk factors for long-term mortality of sepsis patients.Results A total of 296 sepsis patients were enrolled in the study, with 191 (64.5%) in the high ACAG group and 105 (35.5%) in the normal ACAG group. There were no significant differences in age, gender, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), Charlson cormobidity index (CCI) and other background variables between groups. Compared with the normal ACAG group, patients who suffered from multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in the high ACAG group were more prone to develop renal and gastrointestinal injury (43.5% vs. 25.7%, 52.9% vs. 33.3%, respectively), had significantly higher serum creatinine [SCr (μmol/L): 89.0 (61.0, 148.0) vs. 67.1 (48.0, 86.0)], greater need for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT, 16.8% vs. 6.7%), and significantly shorter length of ICU stay and hospital stay [days: 11 (5, 22) vs. 16 (18, 31), 21 (14, 39) vs. 28 (20, 47)], with statistically significant differences (allP < 0.05). It was shown by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis that 1-year cumulative survival for the high ACAG group was significantly lower than that of the normal ACAG group (55.0% vs. 67.7%,P = 0.046). It was shown by multivariate logistic regression that ACAG [odds ratio (OR) = 1.201, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 1.115-1.293,P = 0.000], APACHE Ⅱ (OR = 1.053, 95%CI = 1.011-1.098, P = 0.014), the incidence of septic shock (OR = 2.203, 95%CI = 1.245-3.898,P = 0.007), fungus infection (OR = 3.107, 95%CI = 1.702-5.674,P = 0.000), acute renal failure (OR = 2.729, 95%CI = 1.134-6.567,P = 0.025) and complicated with malignancy (OR = 2.929, 95%CI = 1.395-6.148,P = 0.005) were independent risk factors contributing to increased 1-year mortality among sepsis patients.Conclusion ACAG was an independent risk factor for 1-year mortality of sepsis patients.

AIM: To study the role of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) activation in high glucose-induced collagen Ⅲ synthesis in NRK52E cells. METHODS: Normal rat tubular epithelial cell line NRK52E was cultured in D-glucose of different concentrations, pretreated with SB203580 and collected at different time points. The levels of phospho-p38MAPK and extracellular matrix collagen Ⅲ were examined by Western blotting. RESULTS: The activation of p38MAPK was shown to be dependent upon D-glucose concentration and the time-course. Pretreatment with SB203580 blocked p38MAPK activation induced by high concentration of D-glucose in NRK52E cells. CONCLUSIONS: The activation of p38MAPK induced by high concentration of glucose may play a role in diabetic interstital renal fibrosis. SB203580 has a potential value of clinical applications in the prevention and treatment of diabetic nephropathy.

Objective: To investigate the effects of different extracts of Smilax china L on the activity of ovarian cancer cells. Methods:Solvent extraction method was used to extract the active ingredients of Smilax china L. , and CCK-8 assay method was ap-plied to detect the influence of different Smilax china L. extracts (0, 50, 100, 150 and 200μg·ml-1 ) on the survival rate of ovarian cancer cells including low invasiveness A2780 cells and high invasiveness HO-8910PM cells. At the same time, the status of the two kinds of ovarian cancer cells at different time points (24, 48 and 72 h) was observed. Results:The IC50 of N-butanol extracts (SCR-B) on HO-8910 and A2780 ovarian cancer cells was 47. 5 μg· ml-1 and 69. 2 μg· ml-1 , respectively, and that of ethyl acetate ex-tracts (SCR-E) on A2780 and HO-8910 cells was 147. 9 μg· ml-1 and 166. 0 μg· ml-1, respectively. Smilax china L. extracts had the inhibition against both A278 and HO-8910PM ovarian cells in a dose-and time-dependent manner. Conclusion:The inhibitory activity of SCR-B against ovarian cancer cells is stronger than that of SCR-E, and SCR-B has stronger inhibition against A2780 cells than against HO-8910 cells. SCR-B has better inhibition against ovarian cancer cells.
