Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2014;(1):149-154
BACKGROUND:Induced pluripotent stem cells research has become a hot topic nowadays, because it can avoid the immune rejection and ethical issues in stem cellresearch and have characteristics is similar to the embryonic stem cells.
OBJECTIVE:To review prospect and progress of induced pluripotent stem cells, and to find out some problems about the induced pluripotent stem cells in inducing method, efficiency, safety and application which need to be solved.
METHODS:Kjmed database was searched by the first author using key words of“induced pluripotent stem cells, efficiency, disease model, clinical application”in English to retrieve relevant articles published from January 2003 to June 2013. Literatures addressing induced pluripotent stem cells were included, and the repetitive researches were excluded.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 112 documents were retieved, and final y 32 articles were retained after deleting unrelated and repetitive ones. Induced pluripotent stem cells have very high application value and prospects in the somatic celltransplantation, tissue engineering, drug screening and establishment in vitro of disease models. But this technology is stil in the stage of research and exploration, and there are many technical problems that need to be solved.
3.Clinical Observation of Tiao Shen Kai Yu Needling plus Mental Intervention for Mild Post-stroke Depression
Shanghai Journal of Acupuncture and Moxibustion 2017;36(8):914-917
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Tiao Shen Kai Yu (regulating mind and anti-depression) needling plus mental intervention in treating mild post-stroke depression. Method A total of 100 eligible subjects with mild post-stroke depression were randomized into a control group and an observation group, 50 cases in each group. The two groups were both intervened by basic treatment, while the control group was additionally given mental intervention and the observation group was given Tiao Shen Kai Yu needling plus mental intervention. The two groups were treated once a day, 5 times a week, for 30 d in total. The Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) were observed before and after the treatment. Result The HAMD scores were both significantly improved in the two groups after the treatment (P<0.01), and the between-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). The SDS scores were significantly improved after the treatment in both groups (P<0.01), and the between-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). Conclusion Tiao Shen Kai Yu needling plus mental intervention can more effectively improve mild post-stroke depression than single mental intervention.

Objective To evaluate the correlation between Narcotrend index (NI) and the depth of anesthesia during inhalation anesthesia with sevoflurane and compare NI with BIS values in patients.Methods Sixtytwo ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 25-60 yr,weighing 44-100kg,scheduled for elective surgeries under general anesthesia,were enrolled in the study.Sevoflurane inhalation was started at 5 min after endotracheal intubation.When the end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane (ETsevo) reached 0.6%,0.9%,1.3%,1.6%,2.1%,2.4%,2.9%,3.2%,3.8% and 4.2%,NI and BIS values were recorded simultaneously.Results The correlation coefficients between ETsevo and NI and BIS values were-0.627 (r1) and-0.669 (r2) respectively when ETsevo < 2.9%,and-0.608 (r3) and-0.230 (r4) respectively when 2.9% ≤ ETsevo ≤4.2% (P < 0.01).Comparison of the absolute value of correlation coefficients:no significant difference was found between r1,r2 and r3 (P > 0.05) ; r1,r2 and r3 were significantly greater than r4 (P < 0.01).Conclusion When ETsevo 4.2%,NI values can accurately reflect the depth of anesthesia; when 2.9% ≤ ETsevo ≤4.2%,the accuracy of NI values in monitoring the depth of anesthesia is superior to that of BIS values.

Objective To observe the effect of diet control combined with exercise on hyperlipi-demia,hyperglycemia and high blood pressure in overweight subjects. Method One hundred and four subjects (75 men and 29 women )were chosen from 6789 persons for medical examinations at health administration centre of our hospital from August to December in 2005. All of them met the following requirements: age 35-60,BMI value 24—28,high blood lipids ,high blood glucose or high blood pressure ,never using any drugs and excluding diseases with defects of heart ,liver or renal function and osteoarthritis diseases affecting physical activities. They were required to follow the plan of diet control and exercise for 24 w. The changes of their body weights (BW) ,body mass index (BMI),waist-hip ratio (WHR),total cholesterol (TC),total triglyceride (TG),high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C),low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C),fasting plasma glucose(FPG),2 hours plasma glucose (2 hPG),glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c),systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were observed . Results After 24 w intervention by diet control and exercise ,the BW ,BMI,FPG,2hPG ,HbAlc ,TC ,TG,LDL-C and SBP of the subjects studied were decreased drastically. HDL-C and DBP were not changed. Conclusion Scientific and reasonable diet pattern and rational exercise can lower the hyperlipidemia ,hyperglycemia and hypertension in overweight subjects.
