In China, cooking oil fume is a kind of indoor air pollutant that is ubiquitous. With the development of catering trade, the pollution of cooking oil fume is becoming more and more severe. The results of animal experiments showed that cooking oil fume could damage the genetic substance and cause cancer. The results from the epidemiological studies indicated that cooking oil fume could induce lipid peroxidation and change the pulmonary and immunologic functions, cause chromosome damage and increase the risk of lung cancer.

The academic origin and characteristics of medical families of acupuncture-moxibustion in northern Zhejiang Province were explored in this paper. With acupuncture-moxibustion characteristic of medical families in northern Zhejiang Province such as the LING (see text), the YAN (see text), the SHI (see text) and the SHENG (see text) analyzed and arranged, it was found out that taking the Internal Canon of Medicine as theory basis, their academic thoughts comprehensively absorbed acupuncture-moxibustion theories in all ages, and they continuously made innovations through constant practices, resulting in academic thoughts that focusing on application of acupuncture-moxibustion in clinic, using moxibustion for deficient illness and adopting acupuncture-moxibustion and Chinese herbs for severe and acute patients. The academic thoughts of medical families of acupuncture and moxibustion in northern Zhejiang Province are featured by unique acupoint selection and ma nipulation, thorough moxibustion methods and combined application of Chinese herbs and acupuncture-moxibustion, which is a clinical system of diagnosis and treatment with typical Jiangnan features.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the changes of blood coagulation index before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and the chemotherapeutic efficacy in patients with breast cancer.Methods Ninety patients with breast cancer were selected,and detected the changes of blood coagulation index before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (TAC regimen),and the relationship between blood coagulation index and the chemotherapeutic efficacy were analyzed.Results The levels of fibrinogen (Fib),platelet count (PLT) after chemotherapy were significantly higher than those before chemotherapy [(3.42 ±0.50) g/L vs.(2.44 ±0.46) g/L,(267.83 ±61.34) × 109/L vs.(174.18 ±48.65) × 109/L] (P ＜ 0.01),D-dimer (D-D) was significantly lower than that before chemotherapy [(176.32 ± 101.41) mg/L vs.(214.55 ± 106.34) mg/L] (P ＜ 0.01).The remaining indicators before and after chemotherapy had no significant differences (P ＞ 0.05).The level of D-D in 68 cases was reduced after chemotherapy,the effective chemotherapy in 53 cases (77.9％,53/68),ineffective in 15 cases (22.1％,15/68);the level of D-D in 22 cases was increased after chemotherapy,the effective chemotherapy in 9 cases (40.9％,9/22),ineffective in 13 cases (59.1％,13/22),the difference was statistically significant (P=0.000).The level of PLT in 10 cases was reduced after chemotherapy,the effective chemotherapy in 3 cases(3/10),ineffective in 7 cases (7/10);the level of PLT in 80 cases was increased after chemotherapy,the effective chemotherapy in 59 cases (73.8％,59/80),ineffective in 21 cases (26.3％,21/80),the difference was statistically significant (P=0.044).Conclusions The Fib and PLT increase while the D-D decreases after chemotherapy,so it is necessary to monitor Fib,PLT,D-D level during chemotherapy.The D-D and PLT are effective indexes in evaluating curative effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer.

Objective To optimize the technology of extracting Paeoniflorin and Puerarin from Tongqing Granules. Methods The experiment used the orthogonal experimental design (4 factors and 3 levels) with the shift-rate of Paeoniflorin and Puerarin as experimental criterion in screening the factors affecting the technology of extracting Tongqing Granules. Results All the 3 factors designed in the orthogonal experiment non-signifantly affected the extracting technology. In consideration of the industrial practice, the best condition of extracting the constituents from Tongqing Granules was decided:water extraction for 3 times, extracting with 12 fold water for 1 hours for the first time, with 5 fold water for 0.5 hours for the second time, and with 5 fold water for 0.5 hour for the third time. Conclusion The condition is the optimized technology of extracting Paeoniflorin and Puerarin from Tongqing Granules.

Mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP) is one of the most important pathogens for respiratory tract infections in older children and adults. And it also has a close relationship with the development, acute exacerbation and persistence of chronic difficult-to-control symptoms of asthma.But so far,the mechanisms inducing or causing asthma remain unclear.Possible mechanisms include direct damage of bronchial mucosa, IgE-mediatad immune response, a variety of cytokines and inflammatory mediators releasing and the propensity of host.

Objective To investigate the the effect and interaction of morphine dependence model and naloxone doses on withdrawal intensity. Methods To observe the withdrawal signs and weight loss in two kinds of morphine dependent rats after the precipitating by naloxone of different doses an devaluate the withdrawal intensity.Results Morphine dependence were successfully induced in two ways.There was no significant difference of withdrawal intensity in five-day model(total morphine dose 380mg.kg－1) after precipitating by naloxone of 2mg.kg－1 and 4mg.kg－1（P＞0.05）. Withdrawal intensity of twelve-day model(total morphine dose 1365mg.kg－1)increased significantly with the increase of naloxone dose（P＜0.01）,but it was more intensive significantly than five-day model only after 4mg.kg－1 dose of naloxone. Conclusion Appropriate method should be used to induce morphine dependence and these experimental factors should be combined in assessment of withdrawal intensity.

Three purification methods ,based on differential centrifugation,precipitation by polyethylene glycol (PEG)and ultra-speed centrifugation,were compared for purification of an alfalfa mosaic virus (AMVSY)previously isolated from Trifolium repens. The Purified virus was observed under electron microscope, measured,by ultra-violet absorpton analysis and protein determination with SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Our results showed that a method by alternative use of sodium phosphate buffers containing 0. 1mol/L EDTA and 0. 1mol/L MgSO4 achieved the best purification with less miscellaneous protein contamination,integrate virus particles and relatively high yield, which was of 47.6mg virion per hundred grams of fresh leaves of Chanopodium quinoa inoculated with AMV-SY. The coat protein of AMY-SY was tested for about 29 kilo-Dalton.

Objective: The aim of this study was designed to certify the effects of substance P(SP) on thermo-gonohormonal neuron. Methods: We used the technique of extracellular microelectrode recording, and examined the effects of intravenously injections of SP on electroactiveties of thermo-gonohormonal neurons in PO/AH of rats. Results: Total of 9 warm-estradiol sensitive and 4 cold-estradiol sensitive neurons were recorded in PO/AH, where estradiol excited electroactivities of the warm-estradiol sensitive neurons but inhibited those of the cold-estradiol sensitive ones. While SP reversed the effects of estradiol bezonate on the above mentioned neurons. Conclusion: From our results and related data we may draw conclusions that the thermoregulatory effects of SP may be functioned via hermo-gonohormonal neuron.

In recent years the incidence rate of tuberculosis (TB) has gone up.It was estimated that 1/3of people had asymptomatic latent tuberculosis infection globally.The current widespread use of Bacillus calmetteguerin (BCG) vaccine program against tuberculosis in children has a good preventive effect,but due to the limited duration of the immune responses induced by BCG,there also had situation of prevent failure,so researchers begin to explore new TB vaccines,such as live attenuated mutant strains,subunit vaccines and DNA vaccines,and achieved certain results.For the pure protein derivative tuberculosis skin test positive and immunosuppressed children,in addition to active immunization would also need anti-TB medicine for chemoprophylaxis.
