[Objective] Discuss the influence of Taoist thought of health, in order to establish Taoist theory support for Chinese medicine keeping in good health.[ Method]Through discussing the influence to health maintenance by the Taoist theory of laissez-faire, returning to nature, prevention of disease, venerating yin and softness, to summarize the importance of Taoist thought in health maintenance. [Result]Taoist thought plays an important role in Chinese medicine health maintenance, Taoist thought emphasizes nihility and innocence, returning to nature, and making life to return to original state, prevention treatment of disease, and also pays attention to the protection of yin, emphasizing the regulation of five internal organs. [Conclusion]Taoist thought is one of the important thoughts inheritance for thousands of years in China, the quietness of the laissez-faire Taoism, the thought of returning to nature, the prevention treatment of disease thought in tonifying physical and spiritual, the thought of venerating yin and softness, al have guiding significance for TCM in health maintenance.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and mechanism of ischemic preconditioning (IP)on preservation/reperfusion injury of rat liver graft.MethodsOne hundred and twenty eight male Sprague Dawley rats undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation were randomly divided into 4 groups: group A (control group), group B (IP group), group C (adenosine,Ado group), and group D (inhibitor of NO synthesis,NAME group).ResultsPosttransplantation one week survival rate, 2 hrs reperfusion serum NO, and hepatic tissue adenosine in IP group and Ado group were 88%(7/8) and 88%(7/8), (33 0?6 1)??mol/l and (29 1?6 5)??mol/l, ( 7 2? 1 8)??mol/g and (5 7?1 3)??mol/g, respectively, while in control group they were 38%(3/8),( 15 4? 3 0)?mol/l, and (3 69?0 54)??mol/g, respectively(all P 0 05). However, hepatic tissue adenosine level was (5 56?1 19)??mol/g, higher than that in control group( P

Objective:To evaluate the effects of dibutyl phthalate on rat sperm production and quality. Methods:Totally 150 male rats were randomly divided into the low dose group (50 mg·kg-1), the middle dose group (200 mg·kg-1), the high dose group (1 000 mg·kg-1 ) , the blank control group and the solvent control group ( peanut oil as the control) with 30 ones in each. After continu-ous administration for every 30 days, 10 rats from each group were anatomized, the weight of testes and epididymides were determined, and one side of epididymis was used to carry out the sperm analysis including counting, survival rate and morphology. Results:After intragastric administration for 90 days, the sperm count and survival rate, the weight of testis and epididymis and organ coefficient in the middle dose group and high dose group were decreased significantly(P<0. 05 or 0. 01). Conclusion:The long-term administration of dibutyl phthalate at high dose exhibits notable toxicity on rat reproductive function.

The aim of this paper is to report the study on gene silencing efficiency of siRNA targeted against mouse VEGFR2 (siVEGFR2) in vitro mediated by polyethyleneimine (PEI) and its anti-tumor effect in vivo. CY3-labeled siRNA was compounded into PEI and transfected into MS1 cells. Confocal microscopy was used to image the subcellular distribution of siRNA in MS1 cells. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blotting were used to evaluate VEGFR2 gene silencing induced by siVEGFR2/PEI complexes. A tumor-bearing nude mice model was established to compare the anti-tumor effect after delivered by local and systemic routes. siVEGFR2/PEI complex-transfected cells exhibited much fluorescence in cytoplasm with no evidence of nuclear accumulation. The expression levels of VEGFR2 mRNA and protein in PEI-transfected cells were significantly down-regulated compared with that in blank group, the silencing efficiency were 28.2% and 23.6% respectively. The tumor sizes in mice intratumorally injected with siVEGFR2/PEI complexes (189.429 +/- 17.562 mm3) were reduced definitely compared to that in mice injected with siVEGFR2/PEI complexes via vein route (315.507 +/- 20.491 mm3), or to saline groups (365.844 +/- 20.713 mm3). The study demonstrated that PEI could effectively transfect siRNA into cells and silence the VEGFR2 gene expression. Intratumoral delivery is more suitable for non-targeted modified PEI/siRNA complexes to inhibit the tumor growth in vivo. The present data lay a solid foundation to further study on the gene silencing mechanism for PEI-medicated RNAi and its anti-tumor efficiency in vivo.

Objective To develop a new scoring system,Daping orthopedics operation risk scoring system for senile patient(DORSSSP),for preoperative evaluation of operative risks in the elderly patients with hip fractures based on acute physiology and chronic health evaluation(APACHE)Ⅱ scoring system and physiological and operative severity score for the enumeration of mortality and morbidity (POSSUM)and compare the new scoring system with APACHE Ⅱ and POSSUM in assessing surgical risks and predicting postoperative complications and mortalities.Methods A total of 260 patients with hip fractures treated in our department in recent five years were retrospectively and respectively evaluated with DORSSSP,POSSUM,progressed POSSUM(P-POSSUM)and APACHE Ⅱ scoring system to compare the value of three scoring systems in preoperative evaluation of operative risks and prediction of postoperative mortality and complications.Results POSSUM and DORSSSP predicted complications in 119 and 92 patients respectively,while the actual complication occurred in 84 patients.The prediction value of POSSUM was significantly higher than the actual value,while the prediction value of DORSSSP showed no statistical difference compared with the actual value.POSSUM,P-POSSUM and APACHEⅡ scoring systems predicted 16,10 and 12 deaths respectively,but there were six deaths in fact,with prediction value obviously higher than the actual value.DORSSSP predicted nine deaths,the closest value to the actual.Conclusions DORSSSP has good correlation with postoperative complications and mortalities.Compared with POSSUM and APACHE Ⅱ scoring system,more simple and practicable DORSSSP can more accurately evaluate the preoperative risks and predict the postoperative complications and mortalities in the elderly patients with hip fractures.

Objective: To assay the content and stability of vitamin C(VC) in serum by a simple, specific method. Methods: Serum samples were extracted by metaphosphoric acid, and analyzed on a column C 18 of HPLC with DAD detector at 234 nm. Mobile phase was 100 mmol/L KH 2PO 4, pH3.00. The flow rate was 1 ml/min. Results: Under this condition, the retention time of VC was 5.76 min. The within run and between run reproducibilities tests were 0.42% and 2.11% respectively, and the recovery rate ranged from 82% to 88.5%. Stored at -70 ℃ and compared to that of its metaphosphoric acid extract, serum VC content was stable only for two days, and then decreased rapidly, whereas it did not decrease in metaphosphoric acid extract until the fifth day. Conclusion: A simple, sensitive and reliable method of HPLC with DAD detector is established for measuring VC in either serum or fruit, such as orange juice. VC should be determined immediately or should be extracted with metaphosphoric acid as soon as possible, then the extracts are kept at -70 ℃, and analysed within 5 d.
