Venous valve plays an important role in regulating the venous flow,especially in preventing the blood backflow.It has heen observed that when deep vein thrombosis and dissolved,the valves in the lesions had been destroied or dysfunction.The mechanism of damage of vein valve has not been fully clarified,but as we know,it's common that the inflammatory reaction,due to many unfavorable factors,can cause thrombosis.On the other hand,deep vein thrombosis could bring out the inflammatory reaction as well.So the author will review the development of researching of the destruction of venous valves in recent years.

? Diabetic retinopathy is one of those significant complications of diabetes.With the increasing number of diabetic patients, blind caused by diabetic retinopathy is a serious threat to human health which cannot be neglected, but there is no highly effective treatment for it. Consequently, early detection and preventive treatment for it are important.Currently, studies have found that urine microalbumin had a close relation with diabetic retinopathy and that urine microalbumin might play an important role in early predicting of diabetic retinopathy. The review is about the diagnostic significance of urine microalbumin test for early diabetic retinopathy.

Many epidemiological data and study of experiment show that adminstration of NSAIDs in long term can prevent the carcinogenesis of colorectal cancer, its mecanism can be associated with the inhibition of PG which is produced by Cox 2 way, in addition, promoting apoptosis and anti oxidation were also one of the mecanisms of NSAIDs, the new selective Cox 2 inhibitor without gastrointestinal side effect would become the chemopreventive drugs of colorectal tumor.

The cancer stem cell hypothesis posits that cancer stem cells,which are rare among the tumor cell population and share many common properties with normal stem cells,and have been positively identified and successfully isolated from some cancers,are responsible for tumorigenesis and implicated in multistage cancer progression,particularly with respect to metastasis.A better understanding may provide insights into the development of cancer stem cell-targeting therapeutic strategies.The examines what is known regarding cancer stem cells' concept,comparison with normal stem cell,potential origins,assays for isolation and their roles in metastasis.

Objective To formulate countermeasures of improving nurses′knowledge of malignant hyperthermia by investigating theatre nurses. Methods A self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate 120 theatre nurses for awareness, demand and access about malignant hyperthermia. Results Average correct response rate on the awareness of theatre nurses about malignant hyperthermia was (17.14±9.68)%.There are differences in different education, title and seniority(F=8.002,6.509,2.643,P<0.05).100.0%(120/120)theatre nurses are interested in studying knowledge related to malignant hyperthermia, 94.2%(113/120) theatre nurses are willing to learn knowledge related to malignant hyperthermia. Conclusions The awareness of theatre nurses about malignant hyperthermia is low. It is necessary to strengthen the training of theatre nurses about the knowledge of malignant hyperthermia. A variety of forms can be adopted.

Objective To investigate the relationship among the activity of protein kinase C (PKC) in platelets of maternal vein and umbilical blood , the pathophysiological changes of pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) and fetal growth restriction (FGR) in PIH patients. Methods Activities of PKC in membrane and plasma of platelets from maternal vein and umbilical blood taken from 35 PIH patients and 20 normal pregnant women were measured with substrate phosphorylation method. Results No difference was shown in the PKC activities between the mild PIH patients and normal pregnant women in both maternal and cord blood.The PKC activities in moderate and severe PIH patients were significantly higher than those of the normal pregnant group.In normal pregnant women, the PKC activity in membrane and plasm of the platelets had no significant difference. In the moderate and severe PIH group, PKC activity in membrane was far more higher than the plasm 46?6 vs 37?4 pmol/(min?mg protein), P

Objective To observe the influence of desmopressin acetate (DDAVP) on blood loss and hemostatic function after cardiac surgery with extracorpoteal circulation.Methods Forty-one patients undergoing congenital heart operations, were randomly allocated to double--blindly receiving 0.3ug/kg DDAVP in a 50 ml saline(group DDAVP, n = 20) and 50ml normal saline (group placebo, n = 21) over 15 min after protamine infusion. Blood samples were obtained before operation, immediately before studied drug administration and 1 h after the administration, to measure the hematocrit, platelet count and aggregation, Factor Ⅷ coagulant activity and von Willebrand factor (vWF) concentration. Results The first postoperative 24-hour blood loss was significantly lower in group DDAVP than in group placebo [ (178 ? 90) ml vs (291 ? 98 ) ml, P 0 .05); The plasma level of vWF and factor Ⅷ coagulant activity markedly increased 1h after DDAVP administration as compared with those in group placebo, before operation and after protamine infusion in group DDAVP (P
