The paper offers proposals for the structure, composition and main responsibilities of the centers for hospital information management, posts setting and post responsibilities in the centers, the number of allocated personnel in the centers and the number of personnel required for various posts, and management standards and operating procedures in the centers.

To develop an effective therapeutic HBV DNA vaccine, two eukaryotic expressing plasmids, namely pcDNAS 2 ?S and pcDNAIIF , which respectively encoding HBV middle envelope protein preS 2 ?S and human IL 2/IFN ? fusion protein, were constructed by DNA recombinant technique. After identification by restriction analysis and DNA sequencing, the constructed recombinant plasmids were transfected into COS 7 cells in vitro with transfection reagent Lipofectamine. The expressed product in supernatant was quantified by ELISA , and the biologic activities of IL 2 and IFN ? were assayed by CTLL 2 cell line proliferation and cytopathogenic inhibition, respectively. The results showed that secretive expression of preS 2 ?S and hIL 2/hIFN ? fusion protein peaked at 48h after transfection, and the expression levels were HBsAg(P/N)=7 63, IL 2=10 35ng/ml, and IFN ?=7 90ng/ml. The IL 2 and IFN ? activities in the culture supernatant of COS 7 cells transfected with pcDNAIIF were 998U/ml and 249U/ml, respectively. These results suggested that the recombinant plasmids pcDNAS 2 ?S and pcDNAIIF were correctly constructed and the transfected cells could express secretive active protein.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), an important component of complementary and alternative medicine, has evolved over thousands of years with its own unique system of theories, diagnostics and therapies. TCM has been increasingly used in the last decades and become well known for its significant role in preventing and treating cancer. We believe that TCM possesses advantages over Western medicine in specific aspects at a certain stage of cancer treatment. Here we summarize the advantages of TCM from three aspects: preventing tumorigenesis; attenuating toxicity and enhancing the treatment effect; and reducing tumor recurrence and metastasis.

Objective To obtain the sequence of recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (rhbFGF) with endonuclease sites of BamHI and Pst Ⅰ by PCR based gene assembly and construct the recombining vector of rhbFGF gene by TA cloning technique.Methods The rhbFGF gene sequence which was designed for lactococcus with endonuclease sites of BamHI and Pst Ⅰ was divided into 22 oligonucleotides by DNASTAR 6.0 (bFGFl-bFGF22).The 22 oligonucleotides were spliced by PCR based gene assembly to get the rhbFGF eDNA with endonuclease sites of BamHI and Pst Ⅰ.The PCR product was inserted into the PMD18-T VECTOR.The recombining vector were converted to the competent E.coli TOP10.The clones generated from LAB were analyzed by miniprep isolation from LAB host.They were identified by the restriction enzyme cuuing and sequencing.Results The rhbFGFcDNA synthesized by PCR based gene assembly with endonuclease sites of BamHI and Pst Ⅰ was verified by 2％ agarose electrophoresis.The recombining vector of rhbFGF gene by TA cloning technique was identified by enzyme digestion and gene sequencing.Conclusions The TA cloning vector of recombining hbFGF with endonuclease sites of BamHI and Pst Ⅰ was constructed successfully.

Acute obstructive suppurative cholangitis (AOSC) is one of the most serious acute abdomen.The incidence of abdominal infection is significantly improved when patients were complicated with AOSC and diabetes mellitus,and then bile leakage,intestinal fistula and even death were induced by abdominal infection.The management of abdominal infection is very important for the prognosis of patients.One patient with AOSC and diabetes mellitus was admitted to the No.425 Hospital of PLA from May to July in 2013.Recurrent abdominal infection and abscess occurred after the operation due to his family members' refusal of surgery at early period and lax control of blood glucose before and after surgery,and then bile leakage and intestinal fistula were induced.The patient underwent operation for 3 times,and was cured after receiving fasting,gastrointestinal decompression,parental nutrition,somatostatin administration and antibiotic treatment.

Objective To investigate the influence provided by irbesartan on aldosterone escape during an-giotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor(ACEI) therapy in patients with essential hypertension (EH). Methods 166 EH patients were treated with ACEI. Plasma angiotensin Ⅱ ( Ang Ⅱ ) and aldosterone(Ald) concentrations were meas-ured by radioimmunoassay following the therapy of 3 months treatment. Aldosterone escape was estimated by the plas-ma Ald level after 3 months treatment. Patients with aldosterone escape were given irbesartan for 6 months. The aldo-sterone escape were observed following the therapy with irebesartan at 1,3,6 months. Results Following the treat-ment of irbesartan for 1 month, plasma Ang Ⅱ and Ald concentrations significantly decreased (P < 0.01 ). However, it began to increase after 3 and 6 months treatment, still lower than that of the therapy not given irbesartan ( P < 0.01 ).The levels of plasma Ang Ⅱ and Aid were higher in 6 months than in 1,3 months ( P < 0.01 ), but there are no differ-ences between 1 and 3 months(P>0.05). Conclusion Irbesartan can reduce aldosterone escape during 6 months.But aldosterone escape may be occur again after 6 months treatment of irebesartan.

Neuron is the basic unit of the biological neural system. The Hodgkin-Huxley (HH) model is one of the most realistic neuron models on the electrophysiological characteristic description of neuron. Hardware implementation of neuron could provide new research ideas to clinical treatment of spinal cord injury, bionics and artificial intelligence. Based on the HH model neuron and the DSP Builder technology, in the present study, a single HH model neuron hardware implementation was completed in Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The neuron implemented in FPGA was stimulated by different types of current, the action potential response characteristics were analyzed, and the correlation coefficient between numerical simulation result and hardware implementation result were calculated. The results showed that neuronal action potential response of FPGA was highly consistent with numerical simulation result. This work lays the foundation for hardware implementation of neural network.
