The history of international spread of Chinese acupuncture and moxibustion is divided into three sta ges in this paper, and the spreading characteristics are analyzed. The first stage is approximately from the 6th century to the end of the 15th century, during which acupuncture and moxibustion were spread to neighboring countries by personnel exchanges; the spread towards Korean peninsula, Japan and Vietnam was considered the most successful communication. The second stage lasts from the beginning of 16th century to 1970. At the early time of this stage, the employees of the Dutch East Indian Company introduced acupuncture and moxibustion to European countries through Indonesia and Japan, leading to a short and small fashion; also the United States and Australia were involved. At the late time of this stage, by medical aid teams dispatched by China government, acupuncture and moxibustion were introduced to African countries. The third stage starts from 1971. With the establishment of Sino-US diplomatic relations as an opportunity, acupuncture and moxibustion were being spread rapidly to the world through radio, TV and internet. So far it has been introduced to more than 140 countries and areas. Performing serious studies on the spreading characteristics of three stages will promote the international communication of acupuncture and moxibustion, by which the world will have a better understanding onthe broad and profound traditional cultures of China.

Spinal cord injury causes motor dysfunction below the level of damage plane, that due to the interruption of descending tracts passing movement instruction from the brain to the spinal cord. The main tract is the corticospinal tract which dominate the extremity motor function. The regeneration of the corticospinal tract or functional remodeling after spinal cord injury is anatomical pathology basis of promoting recovery of extremity motor function. This article discussed the anatomical knowledge of the corticospinal tract and previous classic methods of promoting corticospinal tract axon regeneration and repair and the latest research progress, in order to help the clinical treatment.

? The choroidal vasculature provides oxygen and nutrients to the outer retina, and is responsible for maintaining the highly metabolically active photoreceptor cells. The normal structure and function of its vascular system is very important for the retina. So it is more meaningful to observe the choroid morphology for tracking pathological changes in diabetic retinopathy. With the application of the high resolution optical coherence tomography ( OCT ) technology, spectral -domain optical coherence tomography ( SD - OCT ) enhanced depth imaging technology can be used to measure the choroidal thickness quantitatively, which provides a new idea for the diagnosis and treatment of diabetic retinopathy. Therefore, the research and progress of choroidal thickness on diabetic retinopathy by OCT are summarized as follows.

Objective To observe the effect of vibration therapy of Mongolian medicine on headache and vertigo in concussion patients.Method A hundred eligible subjects with concussion were randomized into a treatment group of 50 cases and a control group of 50 cases. The treatment group was intervened by brain vibration therapy of Mongolian medicine, while the control group was treated with Piracetam tablets. The scores of headache and vertigo in the two groups were observed before the treatment and respectively after 3-day, 6-day, and 9-day treatment. Result After 3-day, 6-day, and 9-day treatment, respectively, the scores of headache and vertigo were significantly different from those before the treatment in both groups (P<0.05). The scores of headache and vertigo respectively after 3-day, 6-day and 9-day treatment in the treatment group were significantly different from those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The brain vibration therapy of Mongolian medicine is effective in treating headache and vertigo in concussion.

Objective To investigate the effect of continuous subcutaneous insulin injection(CSII)and multiple subcutaneous insulin injection(MSII)on islet b cell function at the onset of type 2 diabetes.Method 64 patients were randomly divided into CSII(f/m=18/20)and MSII groups(f/m=14/12).There was no significant difference in age,fasting C peptide level,fasting blood glucose level,BMI and HbA1c.The patients of both groups were given intensive insulin therapy.Once the total dosage of daily insulin was kept less than 30U and the fast blood glucose was 3.6-6.0 mmol/L,intensive insulin therapy was changed to oral administration of hypoglycin A(OHA),otherwise the intensive insulin therapy was continued.The number of patients who were switched over to oral drug was compared after one month after the intensive therapy.Result 31 patients in CSII group and 8 patients in MSII group were changed to OHA one month after intensive therapy.A significant difference existed between the two groups(?2=3.37,P

Objective To find out the immunologic mechanism of complete Freud's adjuvant (CFA) when used for preventing from streptozotocin (STZ)-insulitis and STZ-induced diabetes mellitus. Methods 20 healthy Kunming mice were equally and randomly divided into A and B groups. The animals in group A was respectively injected once into the pad of hind foot and intraperitoneally injected with 50?L CFA, and the animals in group B was injected with 50?L sodium chloride. After 2 weeks, all mice in both groups were i.p. injected with STZ (40 mg?kg-1/d) for 5 days. All mice were killed 6 weeks after administration of CFA or sodium chloride. Diabetes was diagnosed if blood glucose level was more than 16.7mmol/L after 2 consecutive days. The incidence of diabetes was compared between the two groups before mice were killed. The expression of Fas/FasL on ? cells as well as on infiltrating T cells of islets was investigated by immunochemistry method. Results The incidences of diabetes mellitus and insulitis in group A and group B were 0 % vs 80% (P

Objective To evaluate the effect of a new one-piece PHEMA keratoprosthesis(Kpros) implanted in alkali burned rabbit corneas. Methods The experiment included two parts. In part one, the porous discs of PHEMA were inserted into the lamellar pockets of alkali-burned corneas and the results were observed clinically and histologically at various periods. In part two, seven one-piece Kpros were implanted into alkali burned rabbit corneas. The Kpros consisted of a central transparent optical area and a porous semi-transparent peripheral skirt. The surgical procedure was similar to that of penetrating keratoplasty. Clinical observations were carried out till 28 weeks. Results Both the porous discs and one-piece Kpros had been retained during the experiment. Severe complications as cataract, retro corneal membrane, retinal detachment and extrusion of material were not found until 28 weeks. There was no calcification in the samples, and inflammation was mild. Two weeks after implantation, fibroblasts and deposition of collagen were found in the pores of PHEMA discs. The fibroblasts in the pores look healthy and functionally active. The preliminary results were satisfactory. Conclusion This new one-piece Kpros had shown good biocompatibility. The porous peripheral skirt fuses well with the bed of burned cornea and proved to be stable. PHEMA materials is suitable for one-piece Kpros.
