Objective This paper addresses the standardization of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) nomenclature translation and put forward suggestions through a comparative study on English translations of TCM terms for liver and gallbladder diseases.Method With the principle of standardization, the principle of correspondence, the principle of readability and the principle of nationalism as the possible criteria, translations of 8 TCM terms available in 7 publications at home and abroad are compared and analyzed.Results 5 of the 8 terms have at least two English versions. The principle of standardization and the principle of readability are violated more frequently than the other two.Conclusion The standardization of TCM nomenclature is progressing steadily.However, efforts are still necessary for translators to improve English language proficiency. The principle of standardization and the principle of readability need to be further enhanced.

Objective To obtain abundant human betacellulin(BTC) with biological activity. Methods The whole mature protein coding sequence of BTC gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) method applied to human pancreatic ?-cell tumors cDNA.The fragment was cloned into prokaryotic expression vector pET32a(+) plasmid.The recombinant plasmid was transformed into E.coli BL21 and the fusion protein was expressed under isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside(IPTG).The fusion protein was purified by Ni2+ affinity chromatography.SDS-PAGE and Western blot were employed to determine the expression and purification of the expected protein.BTC was added to culture NIH3T3 cells for 5 days,and cell proliferation was detected by MTT. Results Lots of fusion protein were produced,and the purified protein can stimulate the proliferation of NIH3T3 cells. Conclusion The human BTC can be successfully obtained from the pET32a(+) system with the biological activity of stimulating the proliferation of NIH3T3 cells.

Objective To construct eukaryotic expression vector of human pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1(PDX-1) gene,and to detect its expression in NIH3T3 cell lines. Methods The whole coding sequence of PDX-1 gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) from human pancreatic-cell tumors cDNA.The fragment was inserted into eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1 plasmid.The recombinant plasmid was verified by double digestion and DNA sequencing.The expression of PDX-1 gene in NIH3T3 cells was assayed by Western blot. Results The length of specific fragment amplified by PCR was 852 bp,and the recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1-PDX-1 showed two bands of 5.5 kb and 852 bp by digestion using respective restriction enzymes BamHⅠand EcoRⅠ.The sequence of PDX-1 gene was approved or confirmed by blasting to GenBank.It was suggested that PDX-1 gene had been cloned into pcDNA3.1 vector correctly.Western blot showed that PDX-1 gene was expressed,which was detected 24 h after pcDNA3.1-PDX-1 plasmid was transfected into NIH3T3 cells. Conclusion The recombinant eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1-PDX-1 was successfully constructed and expressed in NIH3T3 cell lines.

Objective To understand the current status of health knowledge demands and its associated factors in general population. Methods A questionnaire-based survey by convenience sampling method was carried out in 700 subjects aged over 15 years old in October 2014. Information of demographics and health knowledge demands were collected. Data was analyzed using SPSS 17.0. Results A total of 653 subjects were responded, with a response rate of 93.3%. Respondents in male and female were 339 (51.9%) and 314 (48.1%) respectively. There were no differences among age , educational levels and self-reported health status between the two genders 86.6% of the participants showed that they had interests in health knowledge. Educational level and age were the factors associated with the interests. 65.8% and 72.3% of people want to get practical health knowledge of western and traditional Chinese medicine respectively. The top concern of health issues were cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. For preferred ways of learning health knowledge , television is the favorite one (44%), especially in elderly (over 63.8%). A relative high option rate was newspaper and magazine in all age groups. However, young people showed that they preferred the ways of the internet and Wechat (about 50%). For health disseminators, the participants in all age had greatest trust in experts in large hospitals (over 60%). The second option was retired old experts. The experienced patients were convinced in some degree and increased with age. Conclusions In future, health education in general population should considered the characteristics of the population and the applicability of knowledge. Besides , it is necessary to integrate traditional Chinese medicine with Western medicine, traditional media with new media, also authoritative experts and living example.

Objective To investigate the prevalence rate of new-onset malignant tumors in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients .Methods Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients ( 1771 cases ) over 3 years since May 2006 in Xinhua Hospital were retrospectively recruited .The prevalence and distribution of different tumors were analyzed .Results ⑴Total prevalence of malignant tumors was 2.88%, and more common in male ( P <0.05 ) .The prevalence of different malignant tumors in human systems from high to low were digestive, urinary, and respiratory .⑵Age-dependent analysis from <50, 50~, 60~, 70~,and≥80 showed that the prevalence were 0.73%,1.93%,3.27%,3.58%, and 5.02% respectively .A significant difference was found in them ( P <0.05 ) .Conclusion The prevalence of new-onset malignancies is higher in type 2 diabetes mellitus , which is associated with age and sex .Tumor screening should be strongly recommended in such a group of the patients for their earlier diagnoses and treatments due to the un -typical clinical manifestations .

Standardization of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)term translation is the focus of TCM translation studies. Based on the Skopos theory and our interviews to 6 internationals, this paper aims to explore the purposes and principles of TCM term translation from the perspective of the client, the translator and the addressee. Finally, four fundamental principles of TCM term translation are summarized in order to provide references for the standardization of TCM term translation.

Objective To explore the influential factors of the healthy lifestyle of college students, so as to provide basis for drafting the health education measure appropriate for college students.

Objective To determine the prevalence and characteristics of the del(GJB6-D13S1830) in Connexin30(Cx30) gene in children with prelingual deafness.Methods Forty-six prelingual deaf children and 30 children with normal comprehension were obtained,and the del(GJB6-D13S1830)in the Cx30 gene were screened by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) in 2 groups.Results Three cases of 46 deaf children were found to have heterozygous del(GJB6-D13S1830) in Cx30 gene.The rest deaf children and the normal controls did not harbor this deletion.Conclusion The heterozygous del(GJB6-D13S1830) in Cx30 gene is one of causes of prelingual deafness.

Objective To explore the clinical value of gastric bare area (GBA) for the prognosis of gastric fundus and cardia carcinoma.Methods The data of 82 patients with gastric fundus and cardia carcinoma from January 2010 to December 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into group A (49 cases) with cancer cell invasion in GBA and group B (33 cases) without invasion in GBA.All the patients underwent D2 gastrectomy plus surgical resection of GBA and were treated by 6 cycles of postoperative FOLFOX-4 chemotherapy scheme.Postoperative follow-up and survival analysis were carried out for patients in both groups.Results According to survival analysis (Kaplan-Meier method),the postoperative 1-,2-and 3-year cumulative survival rates of the patients in group A were 91.8 ％,57.3 ％ and 29.0 ％,respectively,while those of the patients in group B were 93.9 ％,75.0 ％ and 48.2 ％,respectively.The median survival times of the patients in group A and group B were 27.0 months and 36.0 months,respectively,which was demonstrated existing statistical significance(X2 =4.972,P =0.026).Conclusions The prognosis of gastric fundus and cardia carcinoma patients with invasion in GBA by cancer cells is poor.Surgical resection of GBA may help to improve the prognosis of the patients with gastric fundus and cardia carcinoma.
