Objective To study the psychological experience of patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and provide theoretical basis for clinical care.Methods The phenomenological research method was used to interview 9 patient in depth.The Colaizzi 7-step analysis method was used to analyze their clinical data.Result The mental experience of the AIDS patients after notification of affirmative diagnosis of AIDS included six aspects:concealing,suspicion or denying,worry of being abandoned,eager to be cured,calm and worry of communicating the disease to their family members.Conclusion The nurses should pay attention to their mentality,helping them build a social supporting system and supporting pertinent interventions according to individual psychological experience,which is helpful for controlling risks of disease transmission and improving treatment compliance.

No specific causative gene has been found for epilepsy or autism,while the co-occurrence rate of these two disorders is approximately 30％,suggesting potentially shared common mechanisms.A number of well-known genetic disorders share epilepsy and autism as prominent phenotypic features,including Rett syndrome,tuberous sclerosis,fragile X,and so on.A lot of gene mutations related with the development of nervous system,such as ARX,MECP2,usually associate with the prevalence of these syndromes.Gene mutations often disrupt synaptic plasticity,leading to protein adjusting spiral out of control,resulting in imbanlance of excitement and inhibition in brain,which develop a series of diseases.Mechanisms of early-life seizures and autism turn out to be in several levels,for gene mutations may lead to changes in both molecules and cells,resulting in intelligence and behavior abnormalities.Genetic research progress of syndromes with the comorbidity of epilepsy and autism are reviewed in this paper,in order to provide insight into their underlying pathophysiology and elucidate new therapeutic approaches of both conditions.

"Microcosmic syndrome", "treatment based on syndrome differentiation", and "combination of disease identification and syndrome differentiation" generally refer to a mode: following the syndrome if with no disease identified, following the disease if with no syndrome type differentiated. For example, Chinese medical treatment of hypertension, high blood lipids, increased transaminase, and so on candirectly use Chinese recipes, but no longer with syndrome differentiation. Clinical application of Chinese patent medicine can also obtain favorable clinical. Western doctors need not follow syndrome differentiation. The invention of artemisinin was screened from more than 40 000 kinds of compounds and herbs, but with no reference of any traditional Chinese medical theory. A lot of folk remedy and empirical recipes have obtained effective efficacy but unnecessarily with profound Chinese medical theories. Various evidences showed that disease can also be cured without syndrome differentiation. I held that it might be associated with the same mechanism of Chinese medicine and Western medicine. Any disease can be cured or alleviated by Chinese medicine is a result from its modern pharmacological effect, which is achieved by improving etiologies, and pathogeneses. I was inspired by whether we can directly use traditional Chinese medicine with modern pharmacological effects to treat symptomatic disease. So I raised an idea of microcosmic Chinese medicine used by Western medicine, i.e., we find and use Chinese herbs with relatively effective modern pharmacological effect to treat diseases targeting at patients' clinical symptoms and signs, as well as various positive laboratory results (collectively called as microscopic dialectical indicators). More Western doctors would use it to treat disease due to omission of complicated and mysterious syndrome differentiation. This will promote extensive application and expansion of Chi- nese medicine and pharmacy, enlarge the team of integrative medicine, improve Western doctors' interest in Chinese medicine and pharmacy, thus pushing the career of integrative medicine in a brand new development era.

Objective To study the regulating effect of complementing calcium and invigorating kidney method on the bone morphogenetic protein-4(BMP-4) and signal transduction mechanism.Methods Female Wistar rats were randomly divided into seven groups:normal group,model group,low-,middle-,high-dose yster calcium compound Chinese medicine for reinforcing kidney group,Gushukang granule group,oyster shell calcium tablets group.The model of postmenopausal osteoporosis was established through ovariectomy in rats.The osteoporosis rats were treated with nanometer calcium and invigorating kidney Chinese medicine Gushukang granule,and oyster shell carbonate chewable tablets were used as positive-control groups,the normal rats as standard control,and the model rats as model control.After 12 weeks of the treatment,the indexes were tested.The bone mineral density(BMD) of femoral bone in vitro was detected by dual-energy X-ray densitometer and the expression of BMP-4 and Smad 5,6 mRNA were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reation(RT-PCR).Results Compared with the model rats,BMD of femoral bone in Chinese medicine groups(high dose,middle dose,low dose) increased obviously(P

The paper analyzes new characteristics of the digital scientific research environment and features of knowledge demand of scientific research users in this environment, elaborates the direction of information resources construction, namely, making integration and in-depth analysis of all kinds of scientific research information resources, realizing efficient management and resources sharing by constructing the institutional repository, setting up a communicative scientific research service platform, supporting the scientific research user-based academic communication.

The defense mechinism of heat shock protein(HSP)acting as moleculars chaperons requires heat shock transcription factors as the primary mediators of the heat shock response.Increased expression of HSP may protect the heart.Overexpression of HSP can inhibit cardiomyocyte apoptosis,protect the integrity of the microtubules and the actin cytoskeleton in cardiac myocytes and endothelial cells exposed to ischemia,participate in the folding and activation of protein kinases and transcription factors such as HIF-1? and HSF1,bind to endothelial nitric oxide synthase(Enos) and stimulate its activity,and downregulate cytokine production.Hence,it is of benefit to efficiently elevate HSP expression in myocardium using pharmacological and/or gene therapy procedures without any adverse effect.

Endometrial receptivity is the key for embryo implantation. Improving the receptivity of the endometrium so that the endometrium and the embryo tend to synchronize is the key research field of reproductive medicine in recent years. Traditional Chinese Medicine could improve endometrial receptivity from the aspects like morphology, ultrasound, hormone and receptor expression, molecular biology level, and gene level. It plays a unique role in enriching the expression of pinocytosis, improving uterine artery blood flow, and increasing sensitivity of female progesterone receptor, adjusting related factors and gene expression.

Objective To analyze the genetic diversity of snail populations from five provinces in China mainland. Methods Genomic DNA was amplified by random primer and the products were electrophoresed by 8% polyacrylamide and stained by 0.6% silver nitrogen. The results were recorded and analyzed. Results The average similarity and match percentage among the nine snail populations were 0. 721 4 and 0. 680 9 respectively. The cluster trees showed that the nine snail populations could be divided into three groups ; snails from Dali of Yunnan Province and Puge of Sichuan Province were the first isolated group; snails from Fuqing of Fujian Province and Dongtai of Jiangsu Province were clustered into the second group; the other four populations from Anhui Province and snails from Yixing of Jiangsu Province belong to the last group. Conclusion There is a large diversity among smooth-shelled snails in China although close relationship exists. The cluster trees gained by different snail populations are basically the same and consistent with the distribution of these populations. However, further study should be carried out on the cluster of smooth-shelled snails from Dongtai of Jiangsu Province.
