CBI (Content-based instruction) , integrating the content and language, can be used to guide teaching EAP (English for academic purposes). Main Teaching Models based on CBI (Content-based instruction) include immersion model, theme-based instruction and content for language practice. EGAP (English for general academic purposes) curriculum can be set up in medical universities in the second and third academic years, such as medical integrated course, medical listening & speaking course, medical writing course. ESAP (English for specific academic purposes) curriculum can be set up in the fourth and fifth academic years, such as clinical English,nursing English and stomato-logical English. Theme-based instruction can be applied in medical integrated course and listening&speaking course, including creating situation to lead in the theme, assigning tasks to experience the theme, setting topics to deepen the theme and giving assignment to explore the theme. Content for language practice model can be applied into medical writing course, such as teacher's demonstrating and explaining, students' absorbing and imitating and mutual evaluating. Immersion model can be used in ESAP (English for specific academic purposes), such as choosing typical cases to teach in English, teaching ward round in English, doctor-patient communication in English. Preliminary practice was carried out for one year, experimental class with theme-based instruction and content for language practice model, and control class with traditional teacher-centered teaching model. At the end of the practice, they were given the same test and questionnaire, it was found that CBI teaching models facil-itated to improve the students' English level and also enhanced their study motive and independent study ability.

Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) technology is based on genetic modification technology to express T-cell expression tumor specific chimeric antigen receptor bind tumor antigen in an antigen-dependent anti-MCH way. Single chain antibody fragment (scFv) of tumor-associated antigen (TAA) combines with up-stream activating sequence of T-cell in vitro. The forming recombinant plasmid transfects the purified and large scale proliferating T-cell in vitro by transfection technique. This process starts and activates specific killing reaction of tumor. The clinical application of cell therapy shows high efficiency and good anti-tumor effect in treatment of malignant neoplasm, such as leukemia, lymphoma, melanoma, which made CAR-T become the mainstream method of cell therapy.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the changes in the quantity of colonizing Streptococcus mutans(S. mutans) and Actinomyces on the root surface plaque before and after post-core crown restoration of the mandibular first molars in the elderly patients.

METHODSA total of 30 elderly patients, each with one post-core crown restoration of the mandibular first molar, were randomly chosen to participate in the studies. Patients with mandibular first molars with post-core crown restoration and those with healthy contralateral mandibular first molars were divided into the test and control groups, respectively. Root surface plaques of the two groups were collected before tooth preparation, 72 h after preparation, one week after preparation, and one month after restoration. S. mutans, Actinomyces naeslundii (A. naeslundii) and Actinomyces viscosus (A. viscosus), were identified using colony morphology, biochemical techniques, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Plaque count was measured using microbial colony count.

RESULTSThe number of S. mutans and A. viscosus and A. naeslundii in the test group, which was statistically significant (P<0.05), increased 72 h after preparation. The quantities of S. mutans, A. viscosus, and A. naeslundii one week after preparation were significantly different (P<0.05). The plaque count of S. mutans, A. viscosus, and A. naeslundii in the test group decreased one month after restoration (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe quantities of S. mutans, A. viscosus and A. naeslundii increase one week after preparation but decrease one month after restoration. The finding suggests that dentists should educate patients about plaque control during the early period after tooth preparation.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency and clinical value of modular flexible ureteroscope combined with Holmium laser lithotripsy for treatment of renal calculi. MethodsA total of 46 patients with renal calculi were treated with modular flexible ureteroscope combined with Ho:YAG lithotripsy in our hospital from December 2009 to May 2011.There were 19 cases in middle and upper calyx,8 cases in lower calyx,15 case in renal pelvic,and 4 cases in multiple calyxes.The calculi diameter ranged from 6mm to 31 mm (average in 15 ± 7.9 mm).Flexible ureteroscope was used to find renal calculus under epidural anesthesia,and Holmium laser lithotripsy was used at a maximum energy of 12 to 20W (0.8 - 1.0 J/15 -20Hz).F5 or F6 double-J tubes and catheters were indwelled routinely postoperatively.-examine with KUB and removethe catheter 2 days after operation.Re-examine with B-ultrasonography or KUB 4 weeks after op-eration to evaluate the stone free rate.Residual stones ≥4 mm were regarded as clinical significance of residual stone fragments. Results 45 operations were successful except one case changed to percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) because of ureteral stricture.The operation time was 45 -150 min (average in 110.4 ±25.3 min).The patients were discharged from hospital in 2 -5 days(average in 3 days) after operation.The stone detection rate was 95.6％ (44/46),and the stone free rate was 86.9％ (40/46) after one operation. No severe complications such as ureteral perforation or hemorrhea occurred. Conclusions Modular flexible ureteroscope combined with Holmium laser lithotripsy is effective and safe for treatment ofrenal calculi,meanwhile it can decrease the high maintenance costs of integrated flexible ureteroscope.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of autologous platelet-rich gel (APG)in the repair of diabetic foot ulcers.Methods This study was a single-center,prospective,randomized controlled trial.A total of 60 patients with diabetic foot ulcers (Wagner grade 2 - 3 )were randomly divided into autologous APG group (treatment group)and recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor gel group (control group).After 8 weeks, we compared wound healing rate and wound healing time at five levels (overall ulcer,superficial ulcer,sinus ulcer, Wagner 2 and Wagner 3)in the two groups.Results In APG treatment group and control group,the healing rate of overall sample ulcer (93.33% vs .63.33%,P =0.005),sinus ulcer (84.62% vs .36.36%,P =0.033),Wagner 3 (81.82% vs .30%,P =0.030)differed significantly,but did not significantly differ in superficial ulcer (100%vs .78.95%,P =0.106)or Wagner 2 (100% vs .80%,P =0.106).Ulcer healing time was 31 d vs .41.5 d,23 d vs .32 d,32 d vs .56 d,25 d vs .32 d,38 d vs .56 d,with significant difference between the two groups (P <0.05). Conclusion Autologous platelet-rich gel can effectively increase the curative rate of diabetic foot and shorten healing time.
