The process of late lung development is disturbed in bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).One of the keys in late lung development is secondary septation, in which secondary septa arise from primary septa, producing plenty of small alveoli, which significantly increase the surface area of gas exchange.Secondary septation,together with architectural changes to the vascular structure of the lung which minimize the distance between the blood and the inspired air, are the targets of late lung development.BPD is a disease of premature infants in which development of the alveoli is stunted caused by many factors including volutrauma,inflammation,and oxygen toxicity.Compared with early lung development, the later development of the immature lung remains unclear.This paper is to emphasize remarkable latest research of arrested late lung development and BPD.

Objective To learn therapeutic effect of the combined treatment of mecobalamin and salvia milti-orrhiza ligustrazine on diabetic peripheral neuropathy.To provide effective and reliable operation method for the treat-ment of disease.Methods 163 cases with diabetic peripheral neuropathy were randomly divided into observation group(86 cases)and control group(77 cases).The observation group was treated with mecobalamin combined salvia miltiorrhiza ligustrazine,the control group was treated with mecobalamin.The sensory conduction velocity (SNCV) and motor conduction velocity (MNCV)were measured in the two groups before and after treatment.The therapeutic effects were evaluated after one course.Results The MNCV and SNCV of the two groups were higher than before treatment,the difference was statistically significant (t =24.298,25.546,18.737,15.733,14.284,14.886,9.337, 9.402,all P <0.05).The SNCV and MNCV in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the con-trol group (t =9.119,11.103,7.429,6.352,all P <0.05).The markedly effective rate of the observation group was 48.8% (42 /86),the total effective rate was 90.7% (78 /86),which were higher than those of the control group,the differences were statistically significant (χ2 =9.010,7.937,all P <0.05).The incidence rate of adverse reaction of the observation group was 5.8% (5 /86),which of the control group was 6.5% (5 /77),the difference was not statis-tically significant (χ2 =0.033,P >0.05).Conclusion In the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy,the com-bined treatment of mecobalamin and salvia miltiorrhiza ligustrazine has better curative effect and low incidence rate of adverse reaction,with good clinical application value.

Objective To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture plus early rehabilitation training on the function recovery after surgery for cervical spinal cord injury. Methods Sixty patients with cervical spinal cord injury undergone anterior cervical decompression and internal fixation were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by electroacupuncture plus rehabilitation training, while the control group was by rehabilitation training alone. The Frankel’s grading (FG), Barthel Index (BI), and Functional Independence Measure (FIM) were adopted for evaluation before and after intervention. Results The FG was not significantly changed after intervention in both groups (P>0.05). After intervention, there was no significant difference in comparing FG between the two groups (P>0.05). The BI and FIM scores were significantly changed after intervention in both groups (P＜0.01). There were significant differences in comparing BI and FIM scores between the two groups (P＜0.05). Conclusion Electroacupuncture plus early rehabilitation training can promote the function recovery after surgery for cervical spinal cord injury, and improve the quality of life.

Objective:To investigate the eruption of cystic lesion associated impacted permanent teeth(CAIPT)of the jaws after fe-nestrating decompression in adolescents and to analyze the related factors that affect the eruption of CAIPT.Methods:32 cases of CAIPT were examined restrospectively by panoramic radiographs.The subjects were divided into erupted group(n =22),and nonerupt-ed group(n =10).Patient age,angulation of the CAIPT,the cusp depth,eruption space and the level of dental root formation meas-ured on intial panoramic radiograph,were subjected to statistical analysis.Results:The eruption of the impacted mandibular molar was significantly related to the cusp depth,level of dental root formation and the patient's age(P <0.05).The eruption of the impacted man-dibular premolar was significantly related to the cusp depth,level of dental root formation,the angulation of the tooth and the patient's age (P <0.05),but not to dental space for the eruption(P >0.05).Conclusion:The patient's age,angulation of impacted permanent teeth,cusp depth,eruption space,level of dental root formation should be considered in the management of CAIPT.

Objective To investigate the induction of specific anti-tumor immune response by transfected dendritic cells (DCs) with survivin mRNA of human pancreatic cancer, and to provide the experimental evidences for the treatment of human pancreatic cancer with DCs vaccine. Methods DCs were isolated and cultured from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). After being transcripted and amplified, survivin mRNA was transfected into DCs by electroporation. The expression of survivin in DCs at different time points was detected by quantitative real-time PCR. The survival rate of DCs before and after transfection was determined by MTT method. The induction of specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response by survivin mRNA transfected DCs was measured by 51Cr standard cytotoxicity test. The induction of specific CTL activation by survivin mRNA transfected DCs was evaluated through testing released IFN-γ by ELISA method. Results After survivin mRNA transfection for 48h, the expression of survivin mRNA in DCs reached the highest point (46.09±6.57). After transfection, the survival rate of DCs was stabilized around 80%. The DCs transfected with survivin mRNA could effectively induce HLA-A2+ / survivin+ specific CTL immune responses. Stimulated with pancreatic cancer cell line Capan-2 cells or SCL-1 cells as control group, the IFN-γ released in 24 hours by survivin specific CTL were (28.79±5.70) U/ml and (25.12±2.13) U/ml respectively, there was no significant difference (P=0.761). Conclusion The induction of CTLs by DCs transfected with human pancreatic cancer survivin mRNA could produce specific anti-tumor immunity.

This study was set up to observe the changes in stress and immune functions in upper abdominal surgery after general anesthesia.In thirty elective upper abdominal operation patients,general anesthesia was induced with propofol,fentanyl,scoline and maintained with isoflane and atrumium. Catecholamines(CA),cortisol,interleukin-2(IL-2) and soluble interleukin-2 receptor(sIL-2R) were measured before anesthesia,after induction of anesthesia,at the end of operation,and on the first and third postoperative days.The results showed that epinephrine(E),norepinephrine(NE) concentration increased at the end of operation and on the first postoperative day(P<0.01)，Cortisol concentration decreased after anesthesia induction(P<0.05)，IL-2 concentration decreased at the end of operation(P<0.05)，and sIL-2R lever did not change.The investigation suggested that general anesthesia with propofol,fentanyl and isoflane can suppress CA and cortisol increase resulting from induction of anesthesia. There was no change in IL-2 level.However it can not suppress the increase of stress hormones and decrease of IL-2 due to operation.The stress response correlate with immune functions.

With the wide application of clinical guidelines and standardization of Chinese medicine (CM), guidelines of CM and/or integrative medicine (IM) were also emerging. By the guideline evaluation instruments such as the Appraisal of Guidelines Research and Evaluation (AGREE) Instrument and Conference on Guideline Standardization (COGS), a preliminary assessment of 11 clinical guidelines for CM and/or IM published before October 2008 was performed. Methodological description of evidence collection or synthesization was absent in most clinical guidelines, and evidence-grading criteria were listed in only one of the eleven guidelines. Inadequate standardization of guideline development, single professional background of guideline developers, and lack of high-grade evidence were the current problems. It was suggested that guideline development group should include individuals from multiple relevant professional fields. Stress should be laid on evidence collection and recommendation grading. Guideline developers should follow the rigorous development methodology of evidence-based guidelines, and the methods for evaluating evidence and grading recommendations should be set up according to the characteristics of medical literature of CM. In addition, more attention should be paid to appraise the quality of clinical practice guidelines of CM and IM.
