[Objective] To research professor Yu’s experience in treating chronic cough of children.[Method] The paper expounds Professor Yu ’s experience in treating chronic cough of children by analyzing the etiology,pathology ,summarizing the clinical thoughts and citing some typical cases. [Result] The therapies of expel ing wind and activating blood circulation,strengthening body resistance and eliminating evil ,using both cold and warm are respectively effective in treating whoop,internal injury cough and pharyngitis. [Conclusion] When treating chronic cough of children, Professor Yu always gives consideration to the local environment,climate and the children ’s individual physique,takes care of both tip and root and makes use of simultaneous application of reducing and nourishing therapies,that has instructive significance.

Objective:To observe the clinical treatment effects of Tangkang Xifang in the patients with type 0 diabetes foot ( DF) . Methods:Totally 73 patients with type 0 DF were randomly divided into the treatment group (n=37) and the control group (n=36). All the patients discontinued other medications for 7d before the treatment. Base on the blood glucose control with the traditional treat-ment by metformin hydrochloride (1. 5 g·d-1), the treatment group was additionally given warm water foot bath with Tangkang Xi-fang, while the control group was additionally given warm water foot bath, 30 min per time and twice a day for 60 days. The changes in the clinical symptoms, ankle brachial index ( ABI) , motor nerve conduction velocity ( MCV) and some other indices were measured before and after the treatment. Results:In comparison with the control group (58. 3%), the treatment group had higher total effective rate (86. 5%), and the usage of Tangkang Xifang also significantly improved the physiopathologic syndromes of peripheral artery dis-ease and neuropathy (P<0. 01). The ABI and MCV in the treatment group were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Conclusion:Tangkang Xifang can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of type 0 DF, which is suitable for the clinical application.

Previous studies have proved that the effect of statins in both primary and secondary prevention of ischemic stroke, however, whether acute ischemic stroke needs to be treated with statins and the effect of statins pretreatment on acute ischemic stroke remain unclear. This article reviews the recent representative studies in this field, and analyzes the effects of the application of statins in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke on prognosis.

BACKGROUND: Of the many growth factors that can enhance bone formation, the bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs) are probably the most effective and most widely studied for applications requiring new bone growth. To analyze the effects, the gold standard is patient randomized control trials, however, only BMP-2 and BMP-7 have reached this level of investigation. OBJECTIVE: In this meta analysis the recent findings concerning the application of recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) in tissue engineering and gene therapy, the options of its transfer means, as well as the ideal time of delivery is discussed. RETRIEVAL STRATEGY: The relevant articles published between January 1997 and December 2006 were searched for in Pubmed database by researcher of this article with the key words "recombinant human bone morphogenic proteins (rhBMPs), tissue engineering, gene therapy" in English. A total of 81 articles were selected and reviewed by the standards of: ① Having close relations with the application of rhBMP-2 in tissue engineering and gene therapy; ②The most recently published articles and articles in authority journals were chosen in the same field. Exclusion criteria: repetitive studies. LITERATURE EVALUATION: The main sources of literature are the application of rhBMP-2 in tissue engineering and gene therapy. Among the 52 selected articles, 12 are reviews or meeting reports, others are clinical or elementary experimental studies. DATA SYNTHESIS: BMPs are members of the TGF- β superfamily, which are released by osteoprogenitor cells and typically improve bone growth. The use of scaffolds, cells, and growth factors for bone regeneration is called bone tissue engineering. The application of rhBMP-2 in tissue engineering holds great promise for the augmentation and manipulation of bone and soft tissue repair. One potential alternative to direct rhBMP-2 delivery is to develop a biologic cellular delivery vehicle via gene therapy to enhance bone formation. The application of rhBMP-2 in gene therapy holds great promise for the augmentation and manipulation of bone and soft tissue repair. The research indicated that the dosing, time, and transfer mode of rhBMP-2 to the desired targets remain a facing challenge. Further studies should focus on the ideal dosing, time and method of delivery, which should be easily and reliably displayed, cost effective, and clearly controlled. CONCLUSION: The future of bone and soft tissue repair will likely be based on biologic augmentation of healing and tissue regeneration. The use of rhBMP-2 holds great promise for the augmentation and manipulation in tissue engineering and gene therapy.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has been widely performed for patients with various genetic and acquired malignant and non-malignant diseases.Central nervous system (CNS) complications are considered an important cause of morbidity and mortality after HSCT.This review discuss the main causes of CNS after HSCT such as infection,drug toxicity,graft-versus-host disease,metabolic encephalopathy,neurologic relapses etc,so as to benefit the early recognition of CNS complications and to improve the prognosis of patients after HSCT.

Objective We aimed to assess the influence of space teaching on junior-college nursing students' autonomous learning ability.Methods Using random number table,two classes of junior-college nursing students of Grade 2012 were selected and divided into the experimental group (46 students) and the control group (47 students) according to their classes.Students in the control group received routine multimedia teaching.Students in the experimental group received space teaching based on the platform of World University City.The effect of space teaching on developing nursing students' autonomous learning ability was assessed with the help of their test results and the nursing students' autonomous learning ability evaluation form.Results After carrying out space teaching,the average grade,theoretical performance,total points,the total score of autonomous learning ability and the score of each dimension in the experimental group and the differences were remarkably higher than those of the control group (t value was 2.80,2.45,2.29 and 11.58).Conclusions Space teaching can assist in arousing nursing students' learning motivation and improving nursing students' independent learning ability.It can be used for reference and promoted.

Objective To construct a recombinant plasmid pLEGFP-mIFN? for developing the genetical therapy of tumor by stem cells.Methods PCR was used to amplify the mIFN? gene from plasmid pcDNA3.1-mIFN? in which the mIFN? was cloned.A new plasmid,pLEGFP-mIFN?,was then constructed by inserting the amplified mIFN? gene into pLEGFP-C1.Restriction analysis and sequencing were used to confirm the structure of pLEGFP-mIFN?.Neural stem cells were transfected by supernatant of PA317.Results A DNA fragment in size of 500 bp was amplified.Restriction analysis showed that the amplified gene was inserted into pLEGFP-C1 correctly.(Conclusion The) plasmid pLEGFP-mIFN? is constructed successfully,and it can transfect neural stem cells.
