Diagnostic laparoscopy was carried out 24-72 hours after urinary luteinizing hormone (LH) surge in 54 patients Estradiol (E2) concentration was determined by radioimmunoassay (RIA) in peritoneal fluid and serum Serum progesterone (P) in midluteal phase was determined by RIA.The reliability of predicting ovulation by means of LH surge was evaluated according to the laparoscopic finding of ovulation and the measurements of E2-RIA and P-RIA.Typical findings of ovulation - corpus hemorrhagicum, ovulatory stigma and bloody fluid in cul-de-sac - were observed during laparoscopy in 44 patients among 54 cases with LH surge. Ovulation was confirmed directly by laparoscopy in 44 patients (81.5%). Ovulation was confirmed by combination of laparoscopy and E2 ratio in 47 cases (87%). Predictive rate of LH surge for ovulation and corpus luteum formation was 87% and 98% respectively. Only one patient could not be confirmed to have ovulation and corpus luteum formation by LH surge.Luteinizing hormone enzyme immunoassay (LHEIA) can be started from the 10th day of menstrual cycle without missing the LH surge. LHEIA can be started from the 12th day of cycle in most patients.

BACKGROUND:Repair of large-area burns and severe post-traumatic skin defects has always been urgent clinical breakthrough technology bottleneck. With the development of tissue engineering, epidermal stem cel s are increasingly being used in tissue engineering, cel replacement therapy and genetic engineering. Therefore, the isolation and identification of epidermal stem cel s is becoming the research focus of concern.
OBJECTIVE:To review the research progress in biological markers of epidermal stem cel s.
METHODS:The Chinese Biomedical Literature database, CNKI database, China Academic Journals Ful-text database, PubMed database and EMbase database were retrieved for articles about specific markers of epidermal stem cel s using the keywords of“epidermal stem cel s, integrin, keratin, P63, CD71, telomerase, ACE, cx43, hoechst”in Chinese and English. Older theoretical perspectives and repetitive research were excluded.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Final y, only 40 articles were included in result analysis. Epidermal stem cel s bring a new source for skin tissue repair. Epidermal stem cel s distribute in the fol icle eminence and basal layer of the epidermis. About 4%cel s in the basal layer, however, are stem cel s. Therefore, it is critical to correctly isolate, culture and identify skin stem cel s. As a reason, specific markers of epidermal stem cel s become a hotspot. Currently, a great progress in the biological markers of epidermal stem cel s has been made, but there is stil no absolute and proven marker for epidermal stem cel s. Most studies are focusing on integrin, keratin, P63, CD71, connexin 43, and telomerase. In addition, hoechst, CD90, CD98, CD200 have been reported recently. Each marker has its own shortcomings, and there are stil many problems that need to be solved.

OBJECTIVEMedicinal properties are the basic attribute of traditional Chinese medicines (TCM), while the medicinal property theory is the core theoretical foundation of TCM formula combination. In this particle, authors studied the characteristics of pharmacological effects of property combination of traditional Chinese medicines distributing along meridians, with the aim to introduce the medicinal property combination regularity into the design and optimization process of compound TCMs, and bring the medicinal property theory into full play in guiding the formula combination.

METHODIn this paper, TCMs distributing along "the lung meridian" was taken for example. The medicinal property combinations of TCMs distributing along "the lung meridian" recorded in Pharmacopeia (2010) was collected and processed. Besides, Chinese journal full-text database (CNKI) was used to collect all of pharmacological study literatures concerning the above TCMs that have been published since 1980. The pharmacological information was also supplemented by reference to Science of Chinese Materia Medica and Clinical Science of Chinese Materia Medica.

RESULTTCMs distributing along the lung meridian with different properties and tastes showed significant differences in pharmacological effects. For example, mild-sweet-lung medicines could lower blood sugar levels, decrease anoxia and enhance immunity; Mild-bitter-lung medicines showed anti-bacterial, anti-hypertension, anti-oxidation effects; Hot-sweet-lung medicines showed antibechic and anti-bacterial effects. And Hot-bitter-lung medicines showed phlegm eliminating and anti-inflammatory effects. Meanwhile, TCMs distributing along the lung meridian had similar pharmacological characteristics, such as anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, which is consistent with lung's feature in susceptibility to exogenous pathogenic factors.

CONCLUSIONIn this study, authors discovered pharmacological characteristics of different TCMs distributing along the lung meridian, which links TCM theory with modern study achievements and lays a foundation for establishing a TCM property formula combination system.

Medicinal properties are specific attributes of traditional Chinese medicines(TCM). The medicinal property theory is an important principle for the compatibility of traditional Chinese medicines. In this paper, medicinal properties, flavors and meridian tropism were combined to represent TCM medicinal properties; and multiple medicinal properties were further combined into medicinal property combination modes. TCMs and medicinal property combination modes were divided according to their efficacies, which were regarded as the concept of inductive logic programming and finally got medicinal property combination and compatibility rules with different efficacies. These medicinal property combination and compatibility rules were used to form the theoretical model through the entity grammar system, realize the automatic reasoning process from the medicinal property combination and compatibility to the efficacies, verify the reasoning result and analyze their rationality and limitations, in order to provide new ideas for revealing the relations between the TCM compatibility rules and efficacies.

Objective To construct the assessment index system for general nursing goals management based on the performance structure theory. Methods Expert interviews and Delphi expert enquiry were used to complete the construction of index system, and SPSS17.0 was used to do data statistics and reliability analysis. Results The assessment index system for general nursing goals management was constructed which contained 6 level-Ⅰindicators such as nursing quality, nursing safety, nursing service, teaching and training, the contribution of department and the communication skills and 22 level- Ⅱ indicators. The department monthly examination scores calculation method and feedback mechanism were also established. The expert positive coefficients were 97.6%and 98.8%respectively, the authority coefficients were 0.85 and 0.86, the importance and feasibility mean scores of every index were 3.86-4.98 and 3.98-4.88, and coefficients of variation were 0.03-0.27 and 0.05-0.25 in 2 rounds of enquiry. The importance of level-Ⅰor level-Ⅱ indicators and operability coordination coefficients were 0.10-0.36, the significance test showed P<0.05. Conclusions The design of each dimension of the index system gives full consideration to 3 dimensions of performance: task-adaptive-relationship. Representative of key indicators is strong. The Delphi method used in building is scientific and the results are reliable. The maneuverability of calculate Method is strong, easy to quantify. The feedback mechanism has a strong incentive by combining the assessment results closely with the individual interests. The establishment of the index system can provide scientific and objective basis for the full implementation of the general nursing goals management.
