P2X receptors are ligand gated ion channels, extracellular ATP is their natural extracellular ligand. When any of the subtypes of P2X receptors and extracellular ATP are combined, P2X channel opens, allowing cations (calcium, sodium, potassium, etc. ) pass through. Enteric nervous system is composed of the gut myenteric plexus and submucosal plexus, in both of which P2X receptors exist, mediating different effects under physiological and pathological conditions. In this paper, the enteric nervous system,P2X receptor distribution and related functions are reviewed in order to further explore the P2X receptor in the diagnosis and treatment of intestinal diseases.

Objective To study the development of children's understanding the probabilities of the causes of illness.Methods 120 5-to 9-year-old children were interviewed via open-ended items and forced choices about illness. Results There were statistical significance in their understanding of the probabilities of the causes of illness and their strategies of prediction among the three groups(χ2(2)= 50.134,P ＜0.01;χ2(6)= 95.781, P ＜0.01);in addition, there was statistical significance between the two educational backgrounds (χ2(1)= 11.162, P ＜0.01;χ2(3)= 35.043, P ＜0.01). Conclusion Some preschool-aged children viewed outcomes of familiar causes of illness as probabilistic. The children's understanding of the causes' probabilities appeared to be based on naive biology. 5- to 9-year-old children made probabilistic predictions from a single cause to multiple causes. Children coming from higher educational backgrounds outperformed their counterparts coming from lower educational backgrounds with respect to understanding illness.

Objective To study the current situation of diagnosis and treatment of rudimentary uterine horn pregnancy through 4-cases report. Methods We made a clinical study of 4 cases of rudimentary uterine horn pregnancy admitted to our hospital between 1995 and 2005. Results Three patients had been undergone artificial abortion before they were admitted to our hospital. All the patients were asymptomatic. Ultrasonography was made in 3 cases. Two cases were diagnosed as rudimentary uterine horn pregnancy. Three patients were cured with surgery. Conclusions Rudimentary uterine horn pregnancy is rare and with atypical clinical manifestation in the first trimester. Although diagnosis before surgery is difficult, ultrasonography and MRI make a great role. Surgery is the most important therapeutic method.

The characteristic,theory,fiber coatings,method development of solid-phase microextraction and its coupling with other analytical technologies were reviewed with 59 references.

Despite the continuous improvement of cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB),renal dysfunction remains a frequent complication of cardiac surgery.Previous studies reported that the incidence of acute renal dysfunction following CPB was 7%-40%,while that of acute renal failure(ARF) was 1%-10%.In those who developed ARF,the prognosis was poor,with mortality of about 40%-80%.The present paper reviews the mechanism,risks and available preventive measures of acute renal injury following CPB.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the status quo and trend of the application of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances Ⅰ in Yangzhou area.METHODS: The narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances Ⅰ used in 124 hospitals of Yangzhou from 2005 to 2007 were analyzed in respect of consumption sum,DDDs and DDC etc. RESULTS: A total of 13 kinds of narcotic drugs and 4 psychotropic substances Ⅰ were used in the 124 hospitals,and the consumption sum of these drugs increased year on year.Fentanyl remained at the first place in terms of DDDs in each year,Remifentanil Hydrochloride for Injection and Sufentanil Citrate showed an obvious increasing trend in consumption,but the consumption of Bucinnazine Hydrochloride Injection(Tablet),Triazolam and Buprenorphine Hydrochloride Injection decreased to a large extent.CONCLUSION: The use of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances Ⅰ in the 124 hospitals in Yangzhou area was basically in line with the standard.However,the DDDs of Pethidine Hydrochloride Injection had all along dominated the front place suggesting that clinicians should attach great importance to the standard treatment of cancer pain.

Objective To compare the effects of Valsartan on blood ressure(BP)of patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension(EH).Method 64 patients with EH were randomly divided into 2 groups:Valsartan group(Enalapril 10 mg bid n=32).Treatment lasted for 8 weeks.Result Valsartan and Enalapril significantly reduce BP compared with that bdfore treatment(P< 0.05),effective rate and magnitude of decreasing BP were no significantly different between two groups(effective rate of Valsartan group was 78.1％ vs 70.0％ in Enalapril group(P>0.05).Conclusion Valsartan and enalapril have effect for decreasing the BP in EH patients.

Recently,gene chip technology has become a rapidly developed biotechnology.It contains so many advantages including large-scale, high flux,and parallelism that it has been widely applied in many fields.In this paper,the updated advances on applications of gene chip technology to medicinal plant researches are discussed and the contents are ranged from isolation of differentially expressed genes,discovery of new genes,research on functional genomics,identification of Chinese materia medica,detection of genetically transformed medicinal plants,and the molecular mechanisms of medicinal plant pharmacology and their diseases as well.Some problems and prospects related to the technology are also briefly presented.
