The author got an opportunity to know about the Thai traditional medicine, especially its application and efficacy in treatment of Bi syndrome via the communication with Thai healers in the duration of teaching and working in Chandrakasem Rajabhat University due to an invitation.This paper will simply discuss the similarities and differences between the treatments with traditional Thai medicine and traditional Chinese medicine for Bi syndrome in terms of their theory systems, the understanding of Bi syndrome, as well as the characteristics of therapies.And I hope this paper will provide certain help in the academic exchanges between these two traditional medicines.

MicroRNA (miRNA),an abundant class of small non-coding RNA,are abundant in the central nervous system where they play important roles in the neuronal development and plasticity.Moreover,the relationship between miRNA dysfunction and neurological diseases become more and more apparent.Recent studies show that the misregulated expression of miRNA out of control is closely related to the development of glioma.In this review we discussed the progress on the study of miRNA in Glioma.

By applying PDCA Circulation Method , we can improve and optimize the hospital office and constantly enhance the management level of hospital office .

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematologic malignancy of differentiated plasma cells that accumulate in the bone marrow,where a complex microenvironment made by different cell types supports proliferation,survival,and drug resistance of tumor cells.MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression at post-transcriptional level.Emerging evidence indicates that miRNAs are aberrantly expressed or functionally deregulated in MM cells as the result of multiple genetic or epigenetic mechanisms and that also the tumor microenvironment regulates MM cell functions by miRNAs.Consistently,modulation of miRNA levels in MM cells has been demonstrated to impair their functional interaction with the bone marrow microenvironment and to produce significant antitumor activity to overcome the protective bone marrowmilieu.This review will describe the most recent findings on miRNA function in the context of MM bone marrow microenvironment,focusing on the therapeutic potential of miRNA-based approaches.

Objective To review the examination techniques and the current research progress of the magnetic resonance diffusion weighted-imaging (DWI) used in liver. Methods The recent and relevant literatures about the principles and the current study situation of liver DWI were scrutinized and analyzed retrospectively. In addition, the existing problems of liver DWI were discussed. Results DWI could demonstrate the normal and abnormal structure and function through measuring the diffusion motions of water molecule in the liver. With the improving technology and better understanding of diffusion dynamics, DWI has been used for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis for hepatic diseases. Conclusion DWI as a non-invasive examine method, may provide valuable functional information for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective: The relationship between intracranial pressure (ICP) and visual evoked potential (VEP) or brainstem auditory evoked potential(BAEP)was investigated. Method:An acute intracranial hypertension animal model was established in ten anesthetized rabbits. The changes of VEP and BAEP were observed by an AXON Systems Sentinel-4 Neurologid monitor at different levels of ICP,which were monitored with a fiberoptic transducer being inserted into the epidural space through a burrhole. Result:Both latencies of waves P_1 and N_2 of VEP was positively correlated with the ICP(r=0.62,r=0.60,P

The initial definition of stress and its development were briefly retrospected with elucidating the significance of stress in life sciences study. Stress is involved in a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes. Description of the advances focusing on the relationships between stress and several body systems including nervous system, immune system and cardiovascular system etc. and on the stress molecules and signal transduction was carried out. The ultimate aim of the review is to emphasize the importance and the distinct position of stress during the development of modern bio-medicine, and to further attract more attention to the research field of stress from more scientists.

Objective To investigate the pressing time and puncture site bleeding after extubation of superficial venous catheter in elderly patients.Methods Four hundred elderly inpatients were selected from respiratory department during June 2015 and December 2015 and were divided into two groups:200 patients as experimental group with pressing time of 5-6 minutes and 200 patients as control group with pressing time of 3-4 minutes.The same group of nurses pressed the puncture site after extubation and changes on skin and vessels were observed,which was to find out the optimal pressing time after extubation of superficial venous catheter in elderly patients.Results The presence of bleeding,bruising,success rate of the second puncture,swelling,pain and degree of comfort were compared between two groups and significant differences were found (P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with those in control group,less bleeding,bruising,swelling,and pain,higher success rate of the second puncture and lower degree of comfort were found in experimental group.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the protective effect of catalpol on vascular endothelial function in STZ-induced type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) rats. 40 high-fat diet with STZ-induced diabetes rats were randomly divided into model group, catalpol low-dose, middle-dose and high-dose group (10, 50, 100 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)), 10 normal Wistar rats were used as the normal group. The normal and model groups were given an equivalent amount of saline. All reagents were administered by oral gavage for 6 weeks. After 6 weeks, blood glucose and lipids were detected by an automatic biochemical analyzer. The endothelium-dependent vasodilation response of thoracic aortar was detected. The pathological changes of the thoracic aorta were observed by HE staining. Ser- um nitric oxide (NO), 8-iso prostaglandin F2α (8-iso-PGF2α) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were detected by ELISA. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) level of thoracic aorta was detected by fluorescence method. The expression of Nox4 and p22phox mRNA and protein in aortic tissue were detected by RT-PCR and Western-blot respectively. After catalpol treatment, endothelial damage of thoracic aorta was attenuated significantly; ROS level of thoracic aorta and serum level of 8-iso-PGF2α were decreased significantly; serum NO and SOD levels were remarkably elevated; expression of Nox4, p22phox mRNA and protein in thoracic aorta were significantly reduced (P < 0.05). Therefore, catalpol has protective effect on endothelial of T2DM, its mechanism may be associated with the down-regulation of Nox4 and p22phox expression, inhibiting oxidative stress reaction response.
