C3 glomerulopathy is a group of diseases with immunofluorescence staining C3 along the glomerular capillary loops deposition,may be accompanied by other immunoglobulin deposition,but C3 sedi-mentary classic way was more than other immunoglobulin and complement activation ingredients ( such as C1q,C4). C3 glomerulopathy is a group of primary glomerular disease and relatively rare. This article mainly reviewed the pathological characteristic of C3 glomerulopathy,clinical manifestation,diagnosis and treatment, in order to improve clinical understanding of C3 glomerulopathy.

Vascular bypass grafting is the most common procedure for ischemic heart disease and peripheral vascular disease. Although synthetic grafts have been developed, replacement of vessels with purely synthetic polymeric conduits often leads to the failure of such graft, especially in the grafts less than 6 mm in diameter, mainly due to the early formation of thrombosis, infection and so on. Tissue engineering is a relatively new discipline that offers the potential to create vascular grafts from autologous cells and biodegradable polymer scaffolds. It has become a promising approach for generating a biocompatible vessel graft and contributing to the long-term patency rate of small-caliber grafts. This review describes the major progress in the tissue engineering vascular grafts, including the seeding cell sources, the biodegradable scaffolds, the construction technologies of tissue-engineered vessels, as well as nanotechnology.

Although the interventional radiology, a rapidly expanding medical specialty, has already been widely popularized and generally accepted for many years, it is still facing lots of challenges and turf wars, such as the brain drain, understaffed and the gap between the old and the young.This article attempts to analyze the reasons through investigating the current teaching situation of interventional radiology in medical colleges and finding out the undergraduates' attitude to interventional radiology, in order to explore possible paths for solving the imbalance between supply and demand of qualified personnel.

Alzheimer's disease(AD),the most common form of dementia,it is lack of effective cure or preventive treatment.Dementias in the elder are an increasing medical,social and economic problems and current treatments are only mildly effective.Recently,amyloid-beta protein(A?) has become a major therapeutic target.A? vaccine treatment can improve cognition in the patients with AD,but adverse events,such as meningencephalitis were observed in clinical study.The passive A? immunotherapy in humans is effective with possible safety.However,patients need to be monitored carefully.

OBJECTIVE:To prepare Sophora alopecurodies suppository for treating prostatitis chronica and observe its clinical therapeutic effect METHODS:The content of the total alkaloid in the suppository was determined with acid dye spectrophotometry and the therapeutic effect was observed in comparison with qianliean suppository RESULTS:The linear range of TASa was 0 14～15 4?g/ml,standard oxymatriner's recovery was 101 2%,RSD=0 55% CONCLUSION:This suppository is simple in preparation,reliable in quality-control It is slight in irritation to rectum and effective in clinical use The preparation is worth popularizing in clinical practice

AIM: To elucidate the effects of platelet-activating factor (PAF) on eosinophil activation and the action of dexamethasone or theophylline during this process. METHODS: Eosinophils (EOS) from the peripheral blood of normal subjects were isolated. The hypodense eosinopil (HE) and normodense eosinophil (NE) were studied with electron microscopy. The effects of PAF on eosinophil activation and the action of dexamethasone or theophylline during the above process were measured. RESULTS: Hypodense eosinophil had significantly smaller individual granules than normodense eosinophil had. PAF induced eosinophil peroxidase release, and generated. Eosinophils incubated with 10~(-8) mmol/L PAF and 10~(-5) mmol/L dexamethasone released (101.17?10.32) mg/L eosinophil peroxidase (P

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility ofin vitro balloon dilatation for treating aortic coarctation infants younger than 6 months. Methods: A total of 13 aortic coarctation infants treated in our hospital from 2011-01 to 2015-12 were summarized. The patients were at the mean age of 3.4 months (from 20 days to 6 months), with the mean body weight of 4.8 kg (from 3.6 kg to 6.2 kg) including 9 male. Aortic coarctation segments were resected during the operation and the resected segments were expanded by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) via (2-4) times diameter balloon dilatation. The diameters of resected aortic segments were recorded before and after expansion; the change of vascular middle smooth muscle layer was observed by HE staining. Results: There were 8 cases with non-restricted ventricular septal defect (VSD) and 3 of them received staging operation, 2 with atrial septal defect (ASD), 3 with bicuspid aortic valve, 3 with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and 1 with pericardial effusion. The resected aortic segments presented that 9 patients had diaphragm type narrow and 4 had tube type narrow. After PTA, the diameters of resected aortic segments were slightly increased for the mean of 0.2 mm and no obvious change was observed; HE staining showed that the vascular inner mucosa was shed, while the middle smooth muscle layer was intact. Conclusion: Balloon dilatation had the poor effect for treating aortic coarctation infants younger than 6 months; surgical procedure could be applied for treating the relevant patients.

The heel vessel belongs to the eight extra meridians in human meridian system, which is closely related to the human motion function. Balance function plays an essential role in successful completion of activities in daily life, so the physiological function and pathology of heel vessel as well as human balance function are analyzed, and from the aspect of running course of heel vessel and syndrome, the correlation between heel vessel and human balance function is explored, and the application status of acupoints related to heel vessel for balance dysfunction is introduced. It is believed that heel vessel is closely related to human balance function, especially the motion regulation mechanisms of balance function, and it is hoped that new ideas and methods can be provided for acupuncture treatment for the balance function disorders.
