1.Heat shock protein and atherosclerosis
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(01):-
Studying of atherosclerosis is more than a hundred year.There are many theories about this disease,but now most of us seems to agree with the stress-reponse theory.Heat shock proteins are the products produced at the first stage of atherosclerosis.And someone think that it may have something to do with atherosclerosis.This paper discussed the heat shock proteins and atherosclerosis respectively,and emphasized the relationship between them.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of radiofrequency endovenous obliteration (RFO) on superficial varicosities in lower extremity in the elderly. Methods The clinical data of 35 elderly patients (43 limbs) with primary great saphenous varicose vein, who were treated with RFO (20 limbs) or RFO in combination with high ligation procedures (23 limbs), were analyzed retrospectively. The therapeutic effects were evaluated at 1-3 years after RFO by the improvement of clinical symptom and signs, as well as results of color Doppler ultrasonography. Results Compared with single RFO group, the obstruction rate of great saphenous vein was higher [21(91.3%) vs. 14(70.0%), χ2 =5.467, P < 0. 05], and the recanalization rate was lower [2(8.7%) vs. 8(30.0%),χ2=4.251, P<0.05] in RFO combined with high ligation group. The recurrence rate of local varicose veins was lower[0 vs. 4(20. 0%),χ2 =7. 030, P<0. 013 in RFO plos high ligation group than in single RFO group. Conclusions RFO is an effective treatment with less trauma, more safety and less scars. Combined with high ligation procedure, the effectiveness may be better.

Objective: To design and synthesize a novel vector for rhBMP2 delivery system in tissue engineering. Methods:Dextran glycidol methacrylate(dex-GMA) was synthesized with dextran(dex) and glycidol methacrylate(GMA).Dex-GMA microspheres were prepared by suspension polymerization. The swelling behavior of the microspheres was evaluated by the swelling equilibrium parameter Q. The biodegradation properties of the dextran-based hydrogel microspheres were assessed by the surface morphology before and after biodegradation. Results:Microspheres of dex-GMA in the size(diameter) of 20 to 80 ?m with good configuration were produced. Q value of the microspheres with the diameter of 20-30 ?m was 10.9?3.3,that of those with 70-80 ?m 8.9?6.4.Stirring speed, span-80(emulsifer) quantity and the proportion of dex-GMA affected the size of the microspheres. rhBMP2 was enveloped into the microspheres. Complete degradation of the microspheres was observed during 20 to 40 days at 37 ℃ in normal saline. Conclusion: Dex-GMA hydrogel microspheres may be a release controlling system for rhBMP2 delivery.

[Objective]To observe the change of ultrapathology in the rat model study of experimental lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration.[Method]Thirty-two Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were divided into two guoups at random,including in the experimental group and the control group.The experimental group was incised through posterior approach along spinous process,resected below erector spinal muscle,the supraspinal and interspinal ligament and the posterior of the zygapophysial joint at the center of the third lumbar spine for providing the rat degeneration of lumbar intervertebral induced by mechanical instability state.The control group was just incised the skin.All of th rats were examined after eight weeks by electronmicroscope.[Result]There was no special ultrapathological characterization after operation in the control group,while in experimented group most chonduocyte-like cells were degenerated or necrotic and their number decreased markedly,collagenous fibrils appeared various kinds of degeneration including fusion,twist and calcification,and there were gaps between the collagen bundles.[Conclusion]Observing the change in the rat model study of experimental lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration by ultrapathology,it can offer the experimental data studying tile degeneration of lumbar intervertebral disc.

In recent years,along with the deepening study of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs),the repair effect of BMSCs in various tissue injury have been gradually revealed.And in recent years,except the ability of differentiate to the target cells,its paracrine effect,for example,a variety of cyto-kines secreted by BMSCs,also plays an important role in the process of repairing.

Objective To discuss the effect of formative evaluation for flipped classroom of college English teaching. Method We chose 180 clinical medicine undergraduates from a college and divided them equally into experimental class and control class. In the experimental class, the formative evaluation was implemented for the flipped classroom of college English teaching from September 2014 to June 2015. At the same time, the teaching in the control class was carried out according to the basic process of flipped classroom, with no formative evaluation. At the end of the experiment, the students' satisfaction survey, autonomous learning ability and English proficiency test of the two classes were finished. SAS 9.1 software was used for statistical analysis, and t test was used to compare two class measurement information and count data with chi-square test. Result ①Experimental class' satisfaction of formative assessment teaching design for flipped classroom was 94.45%, which was obviously higher than that of the control class (66.66%). The difference was statistically significant (χ2=7.94, P=0.005). (χ2=7.94,P=0.005).②The score at first, fifth dimension and the overall score of independent learning in experimental classes were respectively (55.31± 4.99)、 (53.61±4.93)、 (247.16±22.10), and they were significantly higher than those in the control class (47.18±4.23)、(45.72±4.01)、(225.92±20.78) (t=8.889, P=0.001;t=7.299, P=0.001;t=6.642,P=0.001), and other dimensions' score was also significantly higher than that in comparative classes (P<0.05). ③The pass-ing rate of CET-4, and the number of students from 505 to 544 and more than 545 fraction in the experi-mental class were respectively 79 (87.78%)、19 (21.11%)、10 (11.11%), and they were significantly higher than those in the control class 61(67.78%)、10(11.11%)、0(0). Conclusion Formative assessment can obvi-ously improve the teaching effect of flipped classroom of college English.
