Objective To investigate the influence of endothelial progenitor cells on the proliferation and differenti-ation of neural stem cells in vitro under the condition of co-culture. Methods We used the mature methods of iso-lation, culture and identification on cells to get the spinal cord NSCs and peripheral blood EPCs from the SD rats, and then put them together in the Transwell chamber in vitro. Set the untreated NSCs as a control group. On the 4th day, we calculated the number and diameter of neurospheres. After that, removing the insert of transwell with EPCs, and inducing the NSCs to differentiate. On the 7th day, we conducted MAP-2 immunofluorescence staining on the cells of induced-differentiation group with fluorescence microscopy, then observed the expression of the anti-gen and calculated the percentage of the differential neurons in the NSCs. All the data were analyzed using statisti-cal method. Results The average number of neurosphere in co-culture group was 10.3±2.2,it was significantly more than that in the control group, and the diameter was under the same situation,the average diameter was up to (49.0±5.3)μm. The percentage of the cells which differentiated into neurons in the co-culture group was signifi-cantly higher than that in the control group, the percentage was(32.1±1.8)%. Conclusion EPCs promote the proliferation of NSCs and induce the differentiation of NSCs into neurons in vitro.

Objective To study and design a new algorithm of QT interval measurement based on multi-scale morphological derivative transform(MMDT) according to the demands of mobile monitoring platform.Methods After the MMDT of ECG signals by inducing a triangle and a short line as a pair of structure elements,they were classified into four types by their morphological characteristics and the optimal strategy for each type was described to detect the onset of Q-wave.By introducing the "wing" function,two referenced points of T peak were picked out,which was helpful to locate the peak and offset of T wave,and improve the precision and recognition rate of MMDT method when detecting the bifid T wave(90.9%)and biphasic T wave(86.7%).Results Eighty data records from CSE database were used to evaluate the availability.By contrast with the wavelet transform method,the statistical results showed that the proposed algorithm had generally less error and smaller standard deviation especially for abnormal-phase T wave.Conclusion Compared with those algorithms based on wavelet transform and self-adaptive threshold techniques,our algorithm needs less empirical parameters and calculation.It is also suitable for mobile monitoring and HOLTER system,and has a wide prospect of application.

Uncoupling protein 4 (UCP4) is a member of the multigenic uncoupling proteins (UCPs), specific expressing in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus. UCP4 plays an important role in Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, stroke, brain trauma and other central nervous system diseases by uncoupling, decreasing mitochondrial membrane potential,regulating Ca2+ homeostasis and oxidative stress. This article reviews UCP4 and its roles in the central nervous system diseases in order to provide certain basis for the development of UCP4targeted medication.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the short-term curative effects of 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy(3DCRT) combined with taxotere on locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer.METHODS:83 patients Ⅲ a or Ⅲ b with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer were divided randomly into the treatment and control group.The treatment group were treated with 3DCRT in combination with taxotere,while the control group were treated with single 3DCRT.RESULTS:The effective rates in the treatment and control group were 88.37% and 62.50%(P

Thought Imprint Psychotherapy under Hypnosis(TIP)and Narrative Therapy are two different kinds of psychotherapy, both with the characteristic of story treatment. The psychotherapist uses re-growth means in TIP treatment, and Narrative Therapy uses means such as externalizing problems, reconstructing story, and so on. This article chiefly discusses two treatments, to confirm some similarities and differences between them and provide guidance for the actual treatment.

Objective To complete the construction of base training content systems of military NBC health support base in combination with practical experience.Methods The concept, construction idea and the multi-dimension element of the military NBC health support basewere analyzed by data studies and expert interview method.Results and Conclusion The construction idea of the training model and the roadmap of the training system are proposed.

Aim To explore the interaction between nitric oxide( NO) and hydrogen sulfide(H 2S) on the relaxation reactivity of pulmonary arteries in rats.Methods Seven male healthy rats were anaesthesed with chloral hydrate; the pulmonary artery of each rat was removed for the study. Th e reactivities of pulmonary artery rings in response to different doses of NO do nar-sodium nitroprusside(SNP) and H 2S donar-NaHS were measured in vitro.DL-propargylglycine(PPG)and N?-nitor-L-methyl ester(L-NAME) were provided to pulmonary artery, respectively;the relaxation reactivities of pulmonary artery were observed.Results The relaxation reactivities of pulmonary arteries showed a dose-dependent increase in response to different doses of SNP and H 2S.The relaxation reactivity to SNP decreased by PPG. The relaxation reactivity to H 2S decreased by L-NAME.Conclusion H 2S acted as a vasorelaxator either independently or accompanied with NO, SNP acted as a vasorelaxator either independently or accompanied with H 2S;the networ k of gastransmitter played an important role in the relaxation of pulmonary arte ries.

OBJECTIVE To detect the condition of bacteria of the air in wards of our hospital in order to reduce the possibility of air spread. METHODS Ten tuberculosis wards were chosen at random for study.Detected the bacteria content of the air in wards used before and after respectively and analysed the results. RESULTS The average of backgroud bacteria was 164 CFU/m 3 before the wards were used.Two years later,the average of bacteria increased to 682 CFU/m 3.The ratio was 1∶3:2 on average.There were significant differences between them. CONCLUSIONS Humen are the main facters that make the air polluted in these wards.The bacteria content will decline by good environment cleaning sanitation,ventilation and strengthening steriling management.Infection will decline in the hospital.

Aim To investigate the changes of phosphodiesterase4(PDE4,type 4 cAMP-specific PDE) activity,TNF-? and neutrophil recruitment in experimental rat lung injury(ALI).Methods ALI in the rat was induced by lipopolysacdharide(LPS).PDE4 activity was measured with HPLC,and the level of TNF-? was detected with ELISA,neutrophil infiltration in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) and lung tissues was detected by cell count and morphological analysis.Result Lung tissue PDE4 activity significantly increased as early as 1 h,peaked 6 h,and then markedly lowered at 24 h after intratracheal administration of LPS,while there was a same time-course change of total white cell and neutrophil in the BALF(r=0.83,P
