China Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Pharmacy 2006;0(09):-
The potential advantage of Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) theories of disease prevention,especial the thinking mode of "health preservation from both physique and spirit "has been generally recognized and widely understood by international society increasingly.In TCM,methods of disease prevention are various and the "health preservation from both physique and spirit" is praised the highest.This article demonstrates the theory that preserving the spirit firstly and then combining with physique,also the methods of keeping an undisturbed spirit and protecting the physique from any harm,for the purpose to make new contribution to the mankind’s health-care industry.

Chinese Journal of Perinatal Medicine 2013;16(8):489-492
Objective To explore the hemodynamic changes in the brains of newborns with intracranial hemorrhage.Methods Totally,61 newborns,born in Anyang Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Henan Province,with intracranial hemorrhage diagnosed by ultrasound in early neonatal period,and 50 healthy newborns,also born in the same hospital from December 1,2010 to June30,2012,were selected.Intracranial hemorrhage newborns were graded according to the severity of hemorrhage and divided into mild (n=45) and severe groups (n =7).The peak systolic flow velocity (Vs),end diastolic velocity (Vd),mean flow velocity (Vm) and resistance index (RI) in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) and anterior cerebral artery (ACA) of brain were measured by Doppler ultrasound.Ttest was applied for statistical analysis.Results Among the 61 neonates with intracranialhemorrhage,12(19.7%) were grade Ⅰ,42(68.9%) were grade Ⅱ,6(9.8%) were grade Ⅲ,and one (1.6%) was grade Ⅳ.The Vs,Vm and Vd of MCA and ACA in the mild and severe intracranial hemorrhage group were significantly lower than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant [MCA:(55.1±9.1) cm/s,(53.0±6.5) cm/s vs (60.1± 10.3) cm/s;(34.2±6.1) cm/s,(32.5±5.2) cm/s vs (38.2±6.9) cm/s; (17.1±4.8) cm/s,(15.3± 4.0) cm/svs (20.2±5.3) cm/s.ACA:(41.3±11.7) cm/s,(39.4±9.2) cm/s vs (45.3±9.8) cm/s;(25.2±5.8) cm/s,(23.3±4.9) cm/s vs (28.1±5.9) cm/s;(15.0±3.9) cm/s,(13.2±3.1) cm/s vs (15.9±3.8) cm/s,all P<0.05].But the RI values were significantly higher in the control group,the differences were statistically significant (MCA:0.70 ± 0.10,0.77 ± 0.07 vs 0.62 ± 0.10 ; ACA:0.67±0.06,0.73±0.08 vs 0.61±0.05;all P<0.05).TheVs,Vm and Vd of MCA and ACA in the severe intracranial hemorrhage group were significantly lower than in the mild hemorrhage group,while the RI values were significantly higher,and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05).Conclusions Newborns with intracranial hemorrhage have significant hemodynamic changes in the brain and more prominent changes could be found in those with severe intracranial hemorrhage.

Objective To explore the effective disinfection and management measures of standby aspirators. Methods Randomly sampled 17 standby aspirators in our hospital and examined whether their liquid storage bottles and covers were contaminated by pathogens.According to the situation,we developed appropriate measures to intervene.4 months after intervention,we sampled 17 standby aspirators which were tested again. Results 82.4% liquid storage bottles and 88.2% covers were contaminated. While the contamination rate after intervention was zero.The pathogens found were mainly Pseudomonas Aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae and other opportunistic pathogens.Conclusions To strengthen the disinfection management of standby aspirators can control the contamination of standby aspirators.

ObjectiveTo assess the clinical value of minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion(TLIF) through the Wiltse approach for the treatment of lumbar spondylolisthesis. Methods Sixty-nine patients with lumbar spondylolisthesis were randomly divided into two groups. Group A underwent minimally invasive TLIF via the Wiltse approach, Group B via the traditional approach. There were 31 cases in group A, the affected level was L4.5 in 19 cases and L5S1 in 12. The degree of vertebrae slippage was Ⅰ degree in 17 cases,and Ⅱ degree in 14. There were 38 cases in group B, the affected level was L4,5 in 22 cases and L5S1 in 16. The degree of vertebrae slippage was Ⅰ in 21 cases, and Ⅱ in 17. The Japanese Orthopaedics Association (JOA) score, visual analogue scale (VAS) of low back pain and leg pain were evaluated at 3, 6, and 12 months follow-up. The post-operative dynamic X-rays, CT and/or MRI were used for image evaluation. ResultsThere was no statistically difference in operating time between the two groups. The incision length, blood loss and exposing time of group A were shorter than those of group B. The JOA scores, recovery rate, VAS of low back pain and leg pain, interbody fusion rate and atrophy rate of multifidus in group A were 24.7±3.5, 77.0%±3.1%, 1.0±0.7, 1.1±0.3, 71.0%±5.8%, 2.1±0.2, respectively, and in group B were 24.3±2.8, 73.6%±6.4%, 3.1±0.6, 1.8±0.5, 76.3%±6.1%, 0.5±0.1, respectively. The VAS of low back pain was lower in group A than in group B. The atrophy rate was better in group A than in group B. Conclusion Both TLIF approaches can acquire satisfactory clinical results. Minimally invasive TLIF through the Wiltse approach can significantly reduced damage of multifidus and incidence of chronic low back pain postoperative.

Objective To explore the relationship between the expression of Dishevelled2 and Vangl2 proteins and the development of mouse palate. Methods Twenty-four pregnant mice were randomly divided into eight groups, and the mouse embryos were obtained at eight clock of the pregnant day of thirteen(p13d8h), p13d14h,p13d22h,p14d8h,p14d14h,p14d22h,p15d8h and p15d22h respectively, then paraffin sections were made conventionally.The distrubution and dynamic changes of Dishevelled2 and Vangl2 proteins in the embryonic palatal shelves were detected by immunohistochemistry and image analysis. Results It was found that the two kinds of proteins expressed in the epithelium and mesenchyma of the mouse palatal shelves at different development stages. The expression levels of the Dishevelled2,in both of the epithelium and mesenchyme of the palatal shelves, increased first (p13d8h-p13d22h),then decreased rapidly(p13d22h-p14d14h), and then increased again(p14d14h-p15d22h). The expression of Vangl2 protein in the mesenchyma showed a similar trend to that of the Dishevelled2, but there was no obvious regularity in the epithelium. In addition, the expressive levels of both kinds of proteins in the epithelium were significantly higher than those in mesenchyma of the palatal shelves. Conclusion Dishevelled2 and Vangl2 proteins might directly or indirectly take part in the regulation process of mouse palate morphogenesis.

Epidemiologic studies suggest that intake of excess all-trans-retinoic acid (RA) during embryogenesis induces various developmental defects and the central nervous system (CNS) represents a major site of the teratogenic action of RA. It is therefore important to understand which parameters are affected early by excessive RA in order to devise and improve protective nutritional strategies. The modulations of beta-catenin and caspase-3 levels were investigated in the KM mouse embryo following maternal treatment with a single oral dose of 30mg/kg body weight of RA during the neurula period. In addition, retinoic receptors (RARs) are key transcription factors regulating gene expression in response to RA-activated signals. So the experiment was designed to evaluate whether the alterations in protein expression of RAR alpha and beta during the time of neural tube closure were induced by excessive RA. Maternal intake of excess RA induced early downregulation of RAR alpha and beta, beta-catenin and caspase-3 expression, which was followed by an increase in their expressive levels in the neural tube tissue of mouse embryos. This finding suggests that the alterations in the expression profile of RAR alpha and beta, beta-catenin and caspase-3 may be implicated in the teratogenesis induced by excess RA in KM mouse embryo.

To investigate the effect of casein phosphopeptide-amorphic calcium phosphate(CPP-ACP) on the growth of Lactobacillus fermentum and to evaluate the possibility of CPP-ACP as a biological anticariogenic agent. Lactobacillus fermentum was inoculated in BHI with different concentrations of CPP-ACP and grew in anaerobic condition at 37 ℃ for 48 h. Used MTT method to evaluate the effects of CPP-ACP on the growth of Lactobacillus fermentum. CPP-ACP inhibited the growth of Lactobacillus fermentum effectively. With the concentration of CPP-ACP increasing, the values of A(550 nm) decreased. It was found that CPP-ACP had inhibitory effect on the growth of Lactobacillus fermentum, the inhibitory effect increased with CPP-ACP concentration.
