Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2005;0(05):-
Community health service is an effective measure to relieve the difficult medical services and expensive medical cost problem,but community inhabitants in Chongqing make little use of community health service.The actual cause is that people s degree of trust in community health service is low.In view of existing situation,this article analyzes the various factors that influence community residents' degree of trust in community health service and puts forward corresponding policy proposal.
2.Mitochondrial transfer mechanism of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells for rescue of tissue injury
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2014;(41):6708-6713
BACKGROUND:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells have beneficial effects on the treatment of various diseases. Mitochondria transfer is newly proposed and its specific mechanisms of action and control factors remain unclear.
OBJECTIVE:To review the studies about stem cells and mitochondrial transfer, then to discuss its value on clinical.
METHODS:The PubMed, VIP and Wanfang databases were searched for related articles concerning stem cells and mitochondrial transfer. Key words were“stem cell, embryonic stem cell, progenitor cell, mitochondria”in Chinese and“Stem cell[s], Mother cell[s], Progenitor cell[s], Colony-Forming Unit[s], Colony Forming Unit[s], Mitochondria[l] transfer”in English. Thirteen articles were found initial y, and using the citation tracking method, final y 42 articles were determined. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Studies have shown that mitochondrial transfer from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells is associated with rescue of aerobic respiration and restoration of mitochondrial function in the injured somatic cells. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and recipient cells form tunneling nanotubes for mitochondrial transfer. Movement of mitochondria between cells is regulated and directed by Miro1. The successful transfer of mitochondria may be accompanied with the clearance of damaged mitochondria. The rescue of mitochondrial function in early stages may provide a valuable therapeutic strategy for various diseases include acute lung injury.

Metabolic studies were carried out on nine male infants to investigatethe digestibility and utilization of some of the nutrients of the Milk-substitute 5410, there by ascertaining whether those nutrients could satisfy their requirements. From the results of the chemical analyses of the foods and excreta of the infants, statistical treatment of the records on the fre- quency of defecation, the amount and form of the stools, and the growth rate of the infants, it was possible to evaluate the apparent energy utilization of the milk-substitute.The ages of the infants at the beginning of the experiment were 37-77 days, and 6-7 months at the end. The experiment was divided into five periods: in the first and second periods the infants were fed alternately with the milk-substitute and powdered whole milk diet; in the third and fourth periods the diets were the same as the first and second but supplemented with cod liver oil concentrate (sbout 1500 1. U. vitamin A and 500 I. U. vitamin D per day). In the fifth period the protein content of the milk-substitute was raised from 16.6% to 22.6%, supplemented also with cod liver oil. In periods when the infants were fed with the milk substitute alone, the number of defecation was significantly less and loose stools fewer than in the milk diet period. Introduction of cod liver oil tended to reduce the dry weight of the feces. When the milk-substitute with higher protein content was given, the number of defecation increased and occurence of diarrhea was more frequent but not more so than during the cow's milk powder period.From the statistical analyses of the results, it was found that the digestibility of protein and carbohydrate of the milk-substitute was significantly lower than that of cow's milk powder but that of fat was higher. Introduction of cod liver oil increased the digestibility of protein, fat, carbohydrate and crude fibre. There was no significant difference between the availability of energy of the milk-substitute and cow's milk powder, the former being 90.9% while the latter 91.7%.The growth curves of the nine infants showed that the higher the food intake, the higher the growth rate. The caloric intakes of eight infants were 100-120 kcal per kilogram of body weight per day and their growth rates were almost identical. The caloric intake of one infant was consistently below 100 kcal per kilogram of body weight per day and his growth rate was significantly lower. It may be concluded, therefore, that when the Milk-substitute 5410 is given to infants supplying 100-120 kcal per kilogram of body weight per day, would be adequate for normal growth.

Previous feeding experiments on infants have shown that the growth promoting effect of the milk-substitute 5410 was comparable to that of hu- man milk or a milk powder diet. In order to know more about the biochemical and physiological properties of this mixture, nine male infants were put in serial metabolic studies with respect to the digestion, nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus utilization of this soybean product.The age of the infants were 37-77 days at the beginning of the experiment, and 6-7 months at the end. The infants were fed with the milk-substitute and a milk powder diet in alternative periods each of which lasted 2-4 weeks. In the first and second periods the infants were fed milk powder or milk-substitute alone, while in the third and forth periods the same diets were supplemented with concentrated cod liver oil, and in the fifth period the infants were fed with another soybean product similar to mixture 5410 but with higher protein content.The digestibility of protein and the absorption of nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus of mixture 5410 were significantly lower than those of the milk powder diet. However, the nitrogen retention were the same during these two dietary periods (191 and 196 mg per kilo per day). The calcium and phosphorus retention were signigicantly lower during periods without cod liver oil (24 and 24 mg per kilo per day) but improved markedly after supplementation (58 and 36 mg per kilo per day).On the average, each infant received from the milk-substitute 4.3g of protein per kilo per day. The amount of calcium ingested was 850 mg per day; it seems to be that supplementation with cod liver oil is necessary for adequate calcium retention at this level of intake.Raising the protein content of the milk-substitute by further addition of soybean powder may increase the nitrogen retention, but it tends to lower the absorption and retention of calcium and phosphorus due to increased amount of fecal excretion.

Objectives To investigate the etiological factors,clinical features and treatment of pediatric primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP). Methods The clinical data of 84 PSP patients under the age of 18 from Departments of Emergency,Respiratory Diseases and Thoracic Surgery of our hospital from June 1999 to June 2009 were collected. There were 72 males (85.7%) and 12 females (15.3%) with a ratio of 6 to 1. Their age ranged from 14 to 18 (mean 17.06). Patients with pneumothorax following trauma,pneumonia,iatrogenic and other underlying causes were excluded. Therapeutic methods included oxygen therapy for 4.8% patients,closed drainage of pleural cavity for 57.1% patients,and surgery for 38.1% patients,But there were 31 patients receiving surgical treatment after closed drainage was failed. The period of follow-up ranged from 1 to 123 months (mean 25.73 months) through telephone or outpatient. Results Eighty-four patients were included,of whom 96.4% had chest pain,7.1% had chest tightness,66.7% had dyspnea,8.3% had shortness of breath and 14.3% had cough. There were 96.4% patients having decreased breathing sound and 3.6% having absent breathing sound. Bullae or blebs occurred mostly in apex and upper lobe. Twenty-one patients suffered from recurrent pneumothorax. Smokers (66.7%,n=9) had higher recurrent rate than non-smokers (22.0%,n=75). Conclusion PSP should be considered when symptoms such as chest pain and dyspnea appear in teenagers. Closed drainage of pleural cavity combined with surgical procedure is recommended for treatment. PSP patient with a history of smoking has higher recurrent rate of PSP.

Three encoding sequence genes (Lab, 3C, 3D) from 19 isolates of O-serotype of foot and mouth disease virus(FMDV) were down-loaded from GenBank. And the coding and amino acid sequences of 3 FMDV proteases (Lpro, 3Cpro, 3Dpol) were compared with the FMDV OA/58 serotype Lab, 3C, 3D sequences abstracted in our laboratory and qualified by variance analysis and multiple analysis(Duncan method). The experimental results revealed that the Lab, 3C and 3D genes had similar nucleotide mutation rates(P>0.05). However, overall analysis of the amino acid substitutions revealed that the Lpro- coding region was more prone to amino acid alterations than 3Cpro and 3Dpol- coding regions(P<0.01), but via multiple comparison, at the amino acid mutation, both 3Cpro and 3Dpol showed no significant difference. Depending on Swiss--pdb-Viewer sofe to simulate amino acid alterations at mutation hotspots, the findings showed that these alterations at hotspots failed to ruin the spatial structures of these 3 proteases. This result presents that the nucleotide mutation just acts on dynamics related to FMDV mutation, but the real evolutionary power must depend on the infected host cells to select functions with each viral proteases.
