Objective: To observe the efficacy of herbal drug-partitioned moxibustion for sub-health status and its influence on humoral immunity, cellular immunity and blood rheology.Methods: By health evaluation in traditional Chinese medicine, the subjects were selected and applied with herbal drug-partitioned moxibustion on the acupoints selected upon pattern identification, in accordance with different causative reason, symptoms, clinical manifestations,to observe the changes in various physiochemical indexes and clinical symptoms before and after the treatments. Results: After herbal drug-partitioned moxibustion, the clinical symptoms were obviously improved, and obvious change took place in the activity of NK cells and in platelet aggregation, with statistic significance (P＜0.05) in comparison of those before moxibustion. Simultaneously, the contents of C3 and C4 decreased in humoral immunity after the treatment, and IgC content increased, with statistic significance (P＜0.05) in comparison of those before the treatment. Conclusion: Herbal drug-partitioned moxibustion can regulate the functions of qi and blood in those with sub-health, by balancing yin and yang in the body and invigorating the spirit and reinforcing qi, so as to relieve sub-health status, indicating its regulatory function on humoral immunity, cellular immunity and blood rheology of the human body.

Objective To observe clinical effect of traumatic patellar dislocation treated with integrative traditional Chinese and western.Methods 103 patients with traumatic patellar dislocation were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group.The treatment group was given the therapy of traditional Chinese medicine combined with western medicine,while the control group was treated only with western medicine.After 3 months'treatment,observed it's the clinical effect.Results Efficacy of the treatment group was obviously higher than the control group,with a significant difference (P＜0.05).Conclusion The integrative traditional Chinese and western medicine exerts a better effect than the sole therapy of western medicine.

Objective To explore the method of self-care management education for patients who have received the eyelid reconstruction surgery by transplanting with free flap-skin. Methods There were 11 cases (15 eyes) who achieved self-care management and continued nursing, including the preoperative, postoperative nursing care of the donor-skin area, eye nursing, diet guidance, medication guidance, safety protection and its like. Results None of the cases revealed infection and all the grafts showed good biological activity among the 11 cases (15 eyes). Conclusions After self-care management education and continued nursing, the averaged hospitalization days of the patients are shortened; the cost is reduced, and the successful rate of the eyelid′s construction by free skin-flap transplantation is enhanced. Self-care management education and continued nursing care played an important role in promoting the healing and improving the successful rate of eyelid′s skin-flap transplantation.

Objective:To explore the expression of GITR/GITRL in rheumatoid arthritis(RA)and its correlation with clinical features of the disease.Methods:Fifty three RA patients,35 osteoarthritis(OA)patients and 35 healthy volunteers were included in the study.The real-time-fluorescence quantitative PCR method was used to analyze the expression level of GITR/GITRL mRNA.Using fluorescence-activated cell sorting(FACS),the expression of GITR on CD4+CD25+ T cells in peripheral blood monouuclear cells(PBMC)was detected.The levels of Anti-CCP antibody,C-reactive protein(CRP),erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR)and rheumatoid factor(RF)of the RA patients were measured at the same time.Results:It was shown that the level of GITR/GITRL mRNA and the percentage of GITR+ T cells in the CD4+CD25+ T cell subpopulation[12.38?5.72/16.41?10.16,(28.12?16.85)%] were significantly higher than those of the OA group [9.59?5.87/12.09?7.53,(21.01?14.42)%,P

0.05).Conclusion The peptide growth factors can activate the Akt kinase by phosphorylation.This process depends on the production of H2O2 and the presence of PTEN.

Objective To compare the effects between dilation and curettage (D&C) and hysteroscopic electroresection (HE) in the management of endometrial polyps. Methods Entered into the study there were 86 patients with endometrial polyps, 32 of them were treated by D&C (Group D&C) and 54 by HE (Group HE). The operation time, pre- and post- operative complications, and recurrence of 2 groups were compared. Results Of the Group D&C and Group HE, the operation time were (8.5?4.2) min and (9.0?3.1) min, without statistically significant differences (t=0.632, P=0.529), while the recurrence numbers and recurrence time of the 2 groups were 9 (36.0%) and 3 (7.5%) cases, (5.3?3.5) months and (11.2?4.8) months, respectively, with significant differences (?2=6.516, P= 0.011; t=6.058, P=0.000). Conclusions Compared with D&C, HE is characterized by lower recurrence rate and longer recurrence time.

Objective To understand the clinical profiles of arthritis after human parvovirus B19(B19) infection.Methods Four cases were described and the clinical and laboratory characteristics were analyzed. Results The median onset age of the 4 patients(2 females and 2 males)was 34 years old.Typical clinical manifestations included joint symptoms,flu-like malaise and erythematous rash.Anti-Bl9 IgM antibodies were all positive in 4 patients.B19 DNA was detected in blood samples of 3.Other types of arthritis were excluded. No relapses were noticed after followed-up of 1～3 years.Conclusion The Anti-B19 lgM and B19 DNA should be detected in patients suffer from arthritis with unknown origin.

Objective:To investigate the wether vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and endostatin could be used as new serum markers of endometriosis. Methods:Preoperative serum levels of VEGF and endostatin in 82 women with endometriosis(stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ 43 cases and stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ 39 cases) were assayed in duplicate using enzyme linked immunoadsordent assay. Serum levels were compared with levels of 60 healthy controls. Results: Serum VEGF and endostatin levels in endometriosis were significantly higher than that of controls. The levels of VEGF and endostatin of endonmetriosis stages Ⅰ-Ⅱ were significantly lower than those of stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of serum VEGF in detecting endometriosis were 0.92,0.78,0.82 and 0.90, respectively; those of enedostatin were 0.95, 0.84, 0.86 and 0.95, respectively. When both factors were used concomitantly, they were 0.98,0.75,0.76 and 0.98, respectively. Conclusion:These results indicates that the balance of angiogenic stimulators and inhibitors may regulate the development and progression of endometriosis and demonstrates that the circulating levels of both VEGF and endostatin maybe useful markers for endometriosis.

BACKGROUND: Lentivirus can infect divided and undivided cells. It remains uncertain whether the lentivirus can successful y infect primary ovarian granulosa cells. OBJECTIVE: To investigate infecting ratio and cel apoptosis of lentivirus carrying bcl-2 gene in primary human ovarian granulose cells cultured in vitro. METHODS: The lentiviral vector carrying bcl-2 gene was constructed using molecular biology, and packaged into lentivirus with high titer. The resulting recombinant lentivirus carrying bcl-2 genes were then used to infect primary human ovarian granulosa cells in vitro at different multiplicity of infection, 10, 50, 100, 200, and 400. Infection efficiency and cel proliferation were observed at 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours fol owing infection. Cel apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry, and bcl-2 gene transcription was assessed using reverse transcription PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Primary human ovarian granulosa cells adhered at 24 hours, and exhibited polygon- or fusiform-shape and colony-like growth. When multiplicity of infection was 100, cel appearance and growth remained unchanged, and infection efficiency was high, which reached the peak up to 72 hours. Moreover, the positive rate was up to 60% in granulosa cells. Lentivirus carrying bcl-2 gene could increase expression of Bcl-2 protein and inhibit apoptosis of primary ovarian granulosa cells.
