Objective To observe the antibacterial activity of artificial antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) to Blastomyces albicans, E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus in oral infection in vitro. Methods The AMPs were dissolved into PBS or sterilized saliva, then the inhibi-tion of different concentration AMPs to E. coil was evaluated by tube testing. The inhibition effect of different concentration of AMPs to Staph-ylococcus aureus and Blastomyces albicans were evaluated by antibiotic-susceptive test paper. Results When the concentration of AMPs added to broth of E. coli is from 150μmol/L to 300μmol/L , the bacterium count is 0 while the number in control is 6700 ~ 9200cfu/ml. At 100μg/tablet AMPs, the diameter of inhibitor zones of Staphylococcus aureus and Blastomyces albicans are 13mm and 11 mm. At 300μg/ tablet, the diameter are 16 mm and 17mm. AMPs dissolved in PBS and saliva have similar antimicrobial activity. Gonclusions The AMPs is effective to prevent Blastomyces albicans, E. coli and Staphylococcus aurcus in oral infection in vitro.

As the development of robotic surgery in urology, the simulation training platform is playing an important role in the training of urologists on robotic surgery training.Currently, the available training simulators for urological robotic surgery are composed of virtual simulators such as VR and AR, and physical (mechanical) simulators such as dry-lab and wet-lab.The reality and validity of various simulation training platforms have been validated in different degree by many researches, which demonstrated the useful and helpful effect on the training and improving of robotic surgery skills.However, we need further study to develop more useful and precise training modules, to integrate advantages of different simulators, and to establish more reasonable learning curve.

Objective To investigate the indoor air pollution caused by construction materials and decoration materials and present scientific data for controlling indoor air pollution caused by construction and decoration materials. Methods 126 samples collected from 44 newly decorated rooms in some districts of Luohe city. The levels of ammonia, benzene and formaldehyde were analyzed according to the national standard. Results The rates of exceed standard of benzene and formaldehyde concentration were 8.7% and 72.2% respectively. Formaldehyde concentration was 3.4 times of the national standard limit averagely. Ammonia and dimethylbenzene were not detected. Conclusion Some decoration materials can pollute the indoor air. The formaldehyde and benzene concentration tend to decrease as time goes on.

Objective:To study the transdermal absorption in vitro of sinapine thiocyanate,tetrahydropalmatine and asarinin in Xiaochuan ointment so as to offer reference for its clinical application.Methods:A Franz diffusion cells method with isolated rat skins was carried out to study the percutaneous rate of sinapine thiocyanate,tetrahydropalmatine and asarinin determined by LC-MS/MS.Results:With the increase of administration dosage,the cumulative penetration of sinapine thiocyanate,tetrahydropalmatine and asarinin showed few changes.The results showed that the transdermal behavior of sinapine thiocyanate fit to a Higuchi equation,and that of tetrahydropalmatine and asarinin fit zero-order process.The penetration rate of tetrahydropalmatine and asarinin respectively was 0.362×10-1 and 0.330×10-2 μg·cm-2·h-1.Conclusion:Xiaochuan ointment exhibits transdermal penetration and absorption properties,which provides evidence for its transdermal administration.

Aiming at the problems and deficiencies of traditional experiment teaching of biomedical engineering, this paper explores a series of reforms to the original teaching mode and states clearly the direction of experimental teaching reform and the specific content, outstanding interdisciplinary subject. In the teaching reform, in order to cultivate students' basic skills and the ability to analyze and to solve the problem, in order to improve the overall quality of students and to cultivate high-level innovative talents as the ultimate goal, this article discusses the main content of the reform of the biomedical engineering from the teaching methods, teaching material construction, teaching contents, lab management, diversified evaluation methods. The experimental teaching reform fully arouses the enthusiasm of the students' learning, and enhances the students' ability of practice and innovation, and improves the intersection between different disciplines, and has obtained the good teaching effect.

Objective To investigate the value of blood culture result in guiding clinical rational use of drugs in clinic.Methods The medical records of 100 children patients with blood culture positive in the four departments of our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Results The empirical treatment accounted for 98%,the goodness of fit in the medication before culture with the appropriate antibacterial drugs according to final detected bacteria was only 51.6%;after issuing the level 1 report,the adding and substituting drugs in adjusting the antibacterial drugs accounted for about 20% each,60% of antibacterial drugs were not adjusted;after issuing the level 2 report,about 5% of children patients added the antibacterial drugs,the proportion for replacing antibacterial drugs reached 32%,meanwhile the proportion for reducing accounted for 3%;after issuing the level 3 report,the consistency of antibacterial drugs use with the final drug susceptibility test results reached 83%,the inconsistency was only about 5%.Conclusion Clinical pediatric doctors in this hospital still heavily rely on the results of blood culture 3 levels reports,executing antibacterial agents from the experience treatment to the target treatment is also very active.

Objective To study the correlation between laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) and voice disorders . Methods One hundred and three patients with reflux -related symptoms were recruited .The patients were evalu-ated with reflux symptom index (RSI) ,reflux finding score (RFS) evaluation and 24-hour dural-probe pH moni-toring .Eighty -nine cases with voice disorders were divided into 5 groups :vocal process granuloma (n=18) chron-ic pharyngolaryngitis (n=19) ,vocal polyps (n=15) ,vocal fold leukoplakia (n=21) and Reinke's edema (n=16) . The other 14 patients without voice disorders were the control subjects .Results According 24-hour dural -probe pH monitoring assessments ,48 .3% of the patients with voice disorders showed LPR positive .The positive rate in the vocal fold leukoplakia group (71 .4% ) and Reinke's edema group (75 .0% ) were significantly higher than the control group (35 .7% ) .RSI and RFS of the patients with Reinke's edema were both significantly higher than the control group(P=0 .020 ,P=0 .009) .RSI of the patients with chronic pharyngolaryngitis were significantly higher than the control group (P=0 .019) .The acid reflux episodes ,acid reflux time which except in the supine position of the vocal fold leukoplakia group were significantly higher than the control group .The acid reflux episodes ,acid ex-posure and acid reflux time which all except in the supine position of the Reinke's edema group were significantly higher than the control group .Conclusion The correlations between Reinke's edema ,vocal fold leukoplakia and LPR were stronger .In these two groups ,the acid reflux episodes were higher and acid reflux times were longer .

The experience of Professor LI Zhidao is introduced in the treatment of mental disorders by "regulating the heart and smoothing the liver". In his experience, the basic prescription includes: penetrating needling technique from Neiguan (PC 6) to Jianshi (PC 5), Ximen (PC 4), penetrating needling technique from Qiuxu (GB 40) to Zhaohai (KI 6) and penetrating needling technique at four groups of acupoints on the gallbladder meridian [Hanyan (GB 4) to Xuanlu (GB 5) and Xuanli (GB 6), Qubin (GB 7) to Shuaigu (GB 8), Shuaigu (GB 8) to Tianchong (GB 9), Tianchong (GB 9) to Fubai (GB 10) and Touqiaoyin (GB 11)]. The manipulation with respiration involved is combined with interactive needling technique so that the patients can feel the weak needling sensation at the local acupoint regions during the treatment. In the paper, the concrete clinical cases are introduced to explain this application and the satisfactory efficacy achieved. The therapeutic method provides a new approach to the clinical treatment of mental disorders.
