OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of vertebral manipulation (VM) therapy on vertebro-basilar artery (VBA) blood flow in patients with cervical spondylosis of vertebral artery type (CS-VAT) by transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasonic examination.
METHODSOne hundred and fifty patients with CS-VAT were randomized into the VM group (n = 100) and the acupuncture group (n = 50), and treated for ten times as one therapeutic course. Changes of the contraction peak, the end-diastolic and average blood flow velocity of VBA before and after treatment in the two groups were observed and compared by TCD.
RESULTSVp, Vd, Vm of LVA, RVA and BA in the two groups after treatment were all lowered, showing significant difference, excepting Vp of VBA in the acupuncture group, when compared with before treatment (P< 0.05 or P <0.01). Comparison between the two groups after treatment showed significant difference in Vp and Vm of LVA, Vp, Vd and Vm of RVA, Vp and Vm of VBA respectively (P<0.05, P <0.01).
CONCLUSIONVM therapy in treating patients with CS-VAT shows therapeutic effect superior to VA therapy, which could significantly improve VBA blood flow.

The new training standards of medical laboratory technology demand the graduates of medical laboratory technology should have the basic scientific research ability and quality. In order to com-plete the teaching work better and achieve the above training objectives, the members of the research group have made some attempts, adopting PBL, CBL and other teaching methods in theoretical teaching, develop-ing open experiments and comprehensive design experiments in experimental teaching, organizing students to study extracurricular undergraduate subject in spare time, in order to provide some basis for the training of students majoring in medical laboratory technology.

Clinical microbiology examination technology experiment is an important part of clinical microbiology examination technology teaching. In the experimental teaching of clinical microbiology examination technology, the virtual simulation technology was combined with traditional teaching to give full play to the advantages of the virtual experimental platform. As to experimental projects that couldn't be carried out in traditional teaching and some important experimental projects, students could learn on the virtual experimental platform, and after learning, they would participate in the corresponding assessment. The perfect combination of the two can solve the problem of high experimental cost and limited experimental content in the current experimental class, make up for the shortcomings of traditional teaching, realize the sharing of teaching resources. Besides, it can strengthen the students' experimental operation skills and enhance the interest of learning for cultivation of application-oriented medical talents.

The objectiue was to explore how to improve stem cell derivation from human great saphenous vein. After the saphenous vein was cut into small pieces, the cells of the vessel wall were obtained by tissue adherent method and digestion with type Ⅱ collagenase. The morphological changes of blood vessel wall were observed under inverted microscope. The survival of vascular wall cells was assessed by trypan blue staining. Stem cells doubly positive for CD34 and CD117 were sorted out by immunofluorescent staining and flow cytometry. The cells obtained by tissue adherence method exhibited signs of fibrotic changes and aging at the third passage (P3), while the cells extracted by enzymatic digestion still showed colony-like growth. Survival rates of these two groups of cells were (91.7±1.2)% and (97.2±0.7)%, (P=0.005). The results of flow cytometry showed that the positive rates of CD34 and CD117 double positive cells in these two groups were (0.16± 0.05)% and (0.44±0.07)%, respectively, with statistical significance (P=0.005). Immunofluorescent staining showed that the positive rates of double positive stem cells in the two groups were (89.41±2.06)% and (94.03±1.83)%, P<0.05 one week after the sorted stem cells were cultured. The positive rates of CD31, VEGF2 and SMA in the stem cells determined by flow cytometry were (0.12±0.01)%, (0.19±0.02)% and (0.45±0.01)%, respectively, which were not statistically different from those of the control groups. This could rule out substantial inclusion of mature endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells. Tube forming experiment confirmed that these vascular stem cells had developmental plasticity. More viable and morphologically healthy vascular stem cells can be derived by enzymatic digestion. These cells can be widely used in clinical and basic research.
