From the perspective of portable monitoring devices,we use an analog front-end AFE4490 design a module of Non-invasive blood oxygen measurement, used to collect human pulse wave signal and peak (valley) value detection and then use the principles of non-invasive oximetry calculated oxygen saturation (SPO2). This design of noninvasive oximetry module has the characteristics of small size, low power consumption, and the results of test show that the measurement of oxygen saturation are correct.

The construction of a network resource data base for clinical skill teaching aiming at sharing excellent teaching resources was completed by integrating all kinds of teaching resource including characters,eourseware,pictures,cartoons,videos and examination questions,etc.In view of the generally weak situation of the current domestic education resource data base construction,the contents,guiding ideology,principle,object,orientation,function and the management mechanism of the network resource data base construction were devised for clinical skills teaching.Suggestions for specific ideas and construction problems were proposed to promote the construction and optimization of the network resource database for clinical skills teaching.

ObjectiveTo study the role and mechanism of low-dose aspirin with IFN-α in inhibiting growth and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).MethodsMHCC97L cells were cultured and a metastatic model of human HCC was established by orthotopic implantation of histologically intact human HCC tissue into the liver of nude (nu/nu) mice.After administration of different doses of Aspirin and IFN-α for 40 days,the mice bearing xenografts in liver were killed,and the tumor volume and lung metastasis were evaluated.Cell proliferation and MMP-2 activity were measured by MTT and gelatin zymography,respectively.The expressions of VEGF and MMP-2 were measured by western blot and ELISA.ResultsCompared to the control group,there were no significant differences in the high-dose Aspirin [45 mg/(kg · d)] treated group regarding tumor volume [(1.89 ±0.88) cm3 vs (3.12±0.85) cm3,P＞0.05] and incidence of lung metastases (58.3％ vs 66.7％,P＞0.05),but the tumor volume and incidence of lung metastasis were significantly inhibited in the highdose IFN-α group [1.5 × 107/(kg · d)],the high-dose IFN-α combined with high-dose Aspirin group,and the low-dose IFN-α [7.5 × 106 / (kg · d) ] combined with low-dose Aspirin [15 mg/(kg · d] group (P＜0.05).2 mmol/L Aspirin did not inhibit the proliferation of MHCC97 cells (P＞0.05),but inhibited the activities and expressions of MMP-2 and VEGF.Low-dose IFN-α combined with low-dose Aspirin significantly decreased the expressions of MMP-2 and VEGF in nude mice (P＜0.05).ConclusionLow-dose Aspirin combined with low-dose IFN-α significantly inhibited the growth and metastasis of HCC through suppressing the expressions of MMP-2 and VEGF.

OBJECTIVETo study the efficacy of Xiaoyao Powder (XYP) combined with interferon alpha (IFN-alpha) in treating HBeAg positive chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients and the effect on their quality of life (QOL).

METHODSTotally 193 patients with HBeAg-positive CHB confirmed by liver biopsy were randomly assigned to 2 groups, Group A (94 cases) and Group B (99 cases). IFN-alpha1b was subcutaneously injected to patients in Group A at the dose of 50 microg, thrice per week. Those in Group B additionally took XYP. The therapeutic course for all was 24 weeks. Clinical efficacy was observed by assessing ALT restoration rate, HBeAg negative rate, HBeAg conversion rate, HBV DNA negative rate, complete response rate, partial response rate, and symptoms integral. The evaluation of QOL was performed by using chronic liver disease questionnaire (CLDQ) score. Adverse reaction occurrence rate was observed in the two groups.

RESULTSBetter effects were obtained in Group A on ALT restoration rate, HBeAg negative rate, HBV DNA negative rate, complete response rate, partial response rate, TCM symptoms integral, the total effective rate of TCM sysmptoms, CLDQ score, and adverse reaction rates, showing statistical difference when compared with Group B (P < 0.05, P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONXYP could elevate the efficacy of TCM symptoms of HBeAg-positive CHB patients and anti-viral effect, improve their QOL, and reduce adverse reaction of IFN-alpha.

Based on improving experimental operating skills of students and considering the features of microbiology experimental technology and methods,we developed a new examination ways of microbiology experiment — "multimedia papers of microbiology experiments" to use among 2005 and 2006 students of sophomore(entering campus in 2005 and 2006) of biotechnology and bio-science for microbiology experiment examination.Analysis of the results of experiment examination and theoretical examination for the 2005 and 2006 students showed that the disharmony and miscorrelation between experiment examination results and theoretical examination results were overcome,and students got more interested in experimental classes,while their experimental operation is more conscious and accurate.

The construction of teaching team is a very important part of quality project of higher education in China. The objective of team construction is to renew the teaching content, to develop the teaching resource, to facilitate the study on methodology and exchange of experience, to strengthen echelon construc- tion and to improve on teaching quality. The Microbiology Curricula Team of Wuhan University is one of the first authorized teaching teams of Hubei Province in 2007. It became one of the first national-level teaching teams in the field of microbiology in 2008. This paper focuses on the feature and the train of thought of the construction and development of the team.

This article described the concept of the professional ethics and discussed the significance of the existence and construction of professional ethics on medical journal editors. The professional ethics on medical journal editors could be beneficial to correctly understand the ethical problems of medical journal editors and to promote the medical journal editors' role localization. It is very important to construct the Standardization of medical journal editors' behavior.

Objective To report 11 cases with the tissue defects of their upper or lower limbs repaired with the anastomsed medial sural artery perforator flaps.Methods The free medial sural artery perforator flaps,with length of 8 cm to 15 cm and width of 6 cm to 14 cm were used for tissue defect reconstruction of the distal upper or lower limbs in 11 cases,including 6 females and 5 males.The flap was harvested from the ho- mo-lateral calf,confined between the posterior-medial edge of the tibia and the middle line of the calf and a- bove the distal half part of the medial sural muscle,with a same axis of this muscle.Results Ten cases survived very well,which was relatively thin,and the donor site can be acceptable.One case resulted in a complete flap necrotized and covered with a split skin graft.No obvious motor function defect was observed of the donor leg.Conclusion The anastomsed medial sural artery perforator flap is alternative donor flap for the upper or lower limb tissue defect repair,especially for the defect in the hand or foot.

AlM: To assess the correlation between the features of optical coherencetomography ( OCT ) and fundus fluorescein angiography ( FFA) in diabetic macular edema ( DEM) .
METHODS: Totally 70 patients (135 eyes) with diabetic retinopathy ( DR) were evaluated by central vision, best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) , intraocular pressure, indirect ophthalmoscopy, slit lamp microscope combined+ 90D front mirror mydriatic fundus examination, mydriatic fundus color photography, OCT, FFA, the correlation between FFA and OCT were analyzed.
RESULTS: ln mild macular oedema cases, abnormalities in FFA was 56 eyes, abnormalities in OCT was 68 eyes (P=0. 0009);FFA showed 12 normal eyes, 10 eyes in OCT were characterized by diffused macular oedema; FFA was performed with cystoid macular oedema, OCT was 46. 7% with cystoid type .
CONCLUSlON: DME is diagnosed by Combination FFA with OCT, OCT is an indispensable tool when following up DME, and it has advantage in early application.
