We studied policies of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) on four levels ( national,Shanghai city, Pudong New District and community health services (CHS)) from 2008 to 2009 with the method of literature review,questionnaire survey and group interview. 18 national, 5 Shanghai's, 4 Pudong New District's and 87 CHS' TCM related policies were identified. By defining the development target,financial capability, human resource and proper technology of TCM care, those policies ensured and prompted the progression of community TCM services. Yet TCM policy fulfill in community remained lagged,and talent cultivating, medical insurance support and TCM participating in public health needed to be improved.

[Objective]To observe the changes of contact characteristics of the subtalar joint after calcaneus fracture in load condition, so as to provid a theoretical basis for its clinical treatment.[Method]Six fresh speciments consisting of foots and lower legs were harvested.A specimen,including an intact foot and 15~20cm of the distal tibia and fibula prepared by removing the skin,muscle and tendons down to the level of the hindfoot and the ligaments and joint capsules were kept intact with the exception of the posterior aspect of the posterior facet and the lateralaspect of middle and anterior facets of the talocalcaneal joint.The pressure sensitive film was inserted into the posterior and anterior-middle facets of the talocalcaneal articulation,and 500-N load was applied in the neutral position.After testing of the intact foot,the calcaneus was splited into anterointernal and posterolateral compoments using microoscillating saw to simulate primary fracture of calcaneus.The test was repeated after tile posterolateral fragment was anatomically reduced and displaced 2mm,5mm and 10mm respectively in a planter direction.The changes of contact characteristics of the subtalar joint ware recorded.[Result]The average pressure area of the intact posterior facet was(275.67?46.02) mm~2,the average stress to bear the weight was(1.83?0.56) MPa.The bearing average pressure area decreased to(167.67?25.09) mm~2 when the posterolateral compoment was displaced to plantar in 2 mm,it was significantly lower(P0.05).The bearing stress the anterior and middle facets significant increased only in a 1 10mm plantar displacement of the posterolateral component(P

Objective To investigate the applieation of restriction display (RD) technique in the preparation of HCV probes of clinical genotyping microarray. Methods Restriction enzyme Sau3A Ⅰwas chosen to digest the full-length HCV cDNAs of three distinct subtypes, i.e.1a, 1b and 2a. The resultant restrictive fragments were then ligated with universal adapters. PCR primers were designed to match the universal adapters but with one "nesting" base overhanging at the 3′- end. The PCR reactions were performed by ten pairs of different primer combinations. The differential genes were separated through polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining. The second-round PCR was performed using the isolated bands as PCR templates. The purified PCR products were then cloned into T-vectors. The recombinant plasmids were extracted from positive recombinant clones and the target gene fragments were sequenced. Results The target HCV gene fragments ranging from 200 to 900bp were isolated and sequenced, which were correlated precisely with the RFLP (Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism) prediction. A total of 66 different fragments were obtained, averaging about 22 for each subtypes. These fragments could be further used as probes in HCV microarray preparations. Conclusion RD technique is of great value in obtaining a large number of equal sized gene probes, which provide a swift protocol in generating DNA probes for the preparation of microarrays.

Objective:To evaluate diagnostic sensitivity of electroneurography(ENoG) for facial neurotmesis.Methods:The data of 24 patients suffering from facial neuratmesis on one side,having non-emergency operation,and having preoperative records of ENoG were collected.Among the patients,18 were men and 6 were women,aged from 3 to 55 years(median 28).The duration of injury before ENoG examination was from 1 to 56 days(mean 23.6 days) for them.The electroneurographic examination was carried out for facial nerves on both sides preoperatively.Percentages of evoked potential amplitude reduction on affected sides were calculated according to the value of normal side.The 90% reduction of amplitude was used as a cutting point.The facial neuratmesis was observed during operation.The sensitivity and false negative proportions of ENoG were analyzed.Results:Among the 24 patients with facial neurotmesis,22 had ENoG amplitude reduction over 90%,and 2 having this reduction less than 90%.The sensitivity and false negative proportions of ENoG in patients with facial neurotmesis were 91.7% and 8.3% respectively.Conclusion:The preoperative ENoG examination is high sensitivity for facial neurotmesis.The patients whose ENoG reduction over 90% should be advised to have a facial neurorrhaphy as soon as possible.

ObjectiveTo investigate the optimal reconstruction windows for coronary angiography using 320-detector row dynamic volume CT (DVCT) and evaluate their effects on image quality,radiation dose and diagnostic accuracy.MethodsFrom 77 patients [mean heart rate (70 + 13) bpm,range:46-102 bmp] were scanned with retrospective ECG-gating 320-detector row DVCT.The relationship between heart rate and optimal reconstruction windows was analyzed.From 53 patients [mean heart rate ( 75 ±11 ) bpm,range:57-114 bpm] were scanned with prospective ECG-gating 320-detector row DVCT.The effects of prospective ECG-gating on image quality,radiation dose and diagnostic accuracy were evaluated.Friedman test was performed for image quality scores in random groups.Linear regression and Spearman correlation were performed to test bivariate data.ResultsThe proportion of systolic duration in the cardiac cycle increased significantly with higher heart rate (r =0.78,P ＜0.01 ).The image quality in systolic and diastolic phases were significantly influenced by heart rate ( r =0.38,0.82 ; P ＜ 0.01 ).According to the regression analysis of image quality score in different heart rate groups,the optimal reconstruction windows were determined as followed:when heart rate was ＜ 70 bpm,the optimal reconstruction windows should be preset at 65％-80％ ; 70 to 80 bpm,70％-85％ ; 81 to 90 bpm,70％-90％ ; ＞90 bpm,35％-50％.Compared with retrospective ECG-gating,prospective ECG-gating which preset reconstruction windows according to the phases mentioned above,could decrease radiation dose [(6.1 ± 3.8 )vs (12.4 ± 7.0) mSv],without deteriorating the image quality (t =6.5,P ＜ 0.01 ).However,in higher heart rate,the radiation dose of prospective ECG-gating DVCT was still higher ( r =0.64,P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionsDVCT can provide high image quality in a wide range of heart rate with prospective ECG gating.It is still recommended to control heart rate strictly since the radiation dose increases significantly in high heart rate.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the nuclear proteomes in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)-depleted A549 cells (Rho0 cells) and their parental cells (Rho+ cells),and to learn more about the nuclear responses to mitochondrial dysfunction.METHODS The nuclear proteomes of Rho and Rho + cells were characterized by two dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and SELDI-TOF ProteinChip technologies,the differentially expressed protein- spots were identified by MALDI-TOF mass spectrum (MS),the nucleophosmin and P53 expression were detected by Western blotting assay,and the mitochondrial memhrane potential (MMP) was measured by the laser scanning confocal microscope.RESULTS 2-DE results showed 11 protein-spots were down-regulated and 21 protein-spots were up-regulated in Rho0 cell nuclei.SELDI-TOF MS analysis with NP20 ProteinChips revealed 4 protein-peaks decreased in Rho0 cell nuclei.One down-regulated protein-spot was identified as elF-6,and 4 up-regulated proteinspots were identified as nucleophosmin,SFRS1,SFRS3 and hnRNP G,respectively.The increased expression of nucleophosmin in Rho0 cells was verified by Western blotting.Based on the clues from proteomic analysis,P53 expression in Rho0 cells was higher than in Rho + cells,and MMP was consistent in Rho + and Rho0 cells.CONCLUSION mtDNA-depletion induces nuclear proteome alteration.Rho0 cells can be used as a model to study the crosstalk between mitochondrion and nucleus.

Objective To evaluate the effect of clinical nursing pathway in emergency treatment of for-eign body in respiratory tract of children. Methods Retrospective analysis was carried out in 555 children with foreign body in respiratory tract from February 2005 to December 2007, who were divided into the control group (271 cases) and the experimental group (284 cases). The experimental group was given managed with standardized clinical pathway,the control group received routine management. The preoperative preparation time, average hospital stay, cost of hospitalization, the extent of mastering of health knowledge by patients'par-ents were observed and the data underwent χ2 and t test. Results All patients of the two groups were cured and no nursing complications happened.The mean preoperative preparation time of the experimental group was 10 hours, which was shorter than that of the control group(27 hours). The average length of hospital stay of the experimental group was (4.13 + 0.81)days, which was shorter than that of the control group ,(6.03 + 1.30) days.The average hospitalization cost of the experimental group was (3498.55 + 269.13) yuan, while the control group was(4246.40 + 977.10) yuan. The extent of mastering of health knowledge by patients' parents, including basic knowledge of the disease, preoperative cooperation knowledge,prevention knowledge and diet knowledge, was superior to that of the control group. Conchusions The establishment of clinical pathway of children with foreign body is conducive to the standardized treatment of the disease, it can shorten the preoperative prepara-tion time, improve the capability of emergency treatment, shorten the length of hospital stay, reducing hospital-ization costs, increase the extent of mastering of health knowledge by patients and their families.

Objective·To explore effects of pCPT-cAMP on proteinuria and dedifferentiation of podocytes in adriamycin (ADR)-induced nephropathy mice. Methods·Male BALB/c mice were divided into three groups. The control group did not make any intervention, and the other mice were administrated with ADR in a dose of 10 mg/kg by intravenous injection (ADR group). Some ADR-injected mice were treated with pCPT-cAMP [50 mg/(kg·d)] by intraperitoneal injection everyday (A+P group). Albumin urine was detected by Coomassie blue stain. Urine creatinine concentration was estimated by ELISA. The expression of WT-1 was detected by immunohistochemical staining. Immunofluorescence staining and Western blotting were used to evulate the dedifferentiation of podocytes. Results·Compared with the control group, the ratio of urinary albumin/creatinine in ADR nephropathy mice was significantly increased. WT-1 immunohistochemical staining showed that the number of podocytes was significantly decreased, while immunofluorescence double staining of podocyte-specific protein synaptopodin and podocalyxin remarkably reduced, and the expression of desmin was increased. pCPT-cAMP intervention decreased the ratio of albumin/creatinine in ADR mice, elevated the quantity of WT-1 positive cells and the expression of synaptopodin and podocalyxin, while desmin expression decreased. Conclusion·pCPT-cAMP activates the PKA signaling and protects ADR nephropathy mice by preventing the loss of podocytes and ameliorating the urine albumin/creatinine ratio, which may be mediated by pCPT-cAMP-prevented dedifferentiation of podocytes.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the characteristics of exposure to iron oxide nanoparticles in workplace.

METHODSThe real-time particle number (NC), surface area (SAC), and mass (MC) concentrations of nanoparticles were measured in various locations of a selected workplace manufacturing iron oxide nanoparticles. The collected particles were analyzed for morphology and elemental composition.

RESULTSThe average NCs and SACs in milling site (16,566 pt/cm3, 106.082 µm2/cm3), packaging site (12,386 pt/cm3, 89.861 µm2/cm3), shipping site (13,808 pt/cm3, 102.071 µm2/cm3), and product storage room (17,192 pt/cm, 115.044 µm2/cm3) of the yellow powder (α-Fe2O3 . nH2O) were all significantly higher than the workplace background concentrations (11,420 pt/cm3, 85.026 µm2/cm3) (all P<0.05). The NC was highly correlated with the SAC (r= 0.784), while both NC and SAC were loosely correlated with the MC (r1=0.323, r2=0.331). Scanning electron microscopy revealed a spindle-like shape of the iron oxide nanoparticle; the chemical composition of the collected particles contained 19.33 weight percent iron (Fe).

CONCLUSIONThe milling site and product storage room of the yellow powder are exposed to a higher concentration of nanoparticles, which are mainly composed of iron oxide nanoparticles. The NC is highly correlated with the SAC.
