The clinical practice on real patients is more and more difficult in the present condition of the hospitals.Then,the modern medical simulating teaching is the main direction of the development in this field due to its characteristics,based on high- technology,simulating the real clinical circumstance,and being applicable in practice and avoiding the risk of clinical miscarriage. The significance and main development direction of modern medical simulated teaching will be discussed in this article.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and prognosis of congenital pulmonary artery sling (PAS) in children. MethodsThe clinical data of 38 children diagnosed with PAS during June 2009 and February 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsIn 38 PAS children, 35 cases (89.47%) were hospitalized for varying degrees of respiratory manifestations with recurrent cough (89.47%) and wheezing (84.21%) being the most common. The remaining 3 cases were found abnormal in routine preoperative examination and the diagnosis was confirmed after further examination. All 38 children were performed computer tomography angiography (CTA). Thirty-seven cases were diagnosed of PAS and diagnostic rate was 97.37%. One case was suspected of pulmonary dysplasia and diagnosed of PAS after operation. Twenty-six children received surgical treatment, of whom 25 children had pulmonary artery reconstruction (LPA). Seven children died during/after operation and 18 survived. The remaining 12 children received non-surgical treatment, of whom 9 died and 3 survived.ConclusionCardiac uhrasonography may reveal PAS in the early stage, while CTA is the best method for conifrmed diagnosis. LPA reconstruction is an important means of relieving left pulmonary artery oppression.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize and improve the quality standards of Daziran wuhua yin. METHODS:TLC was used for the qualitative identification of Cichorii Herba,Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma and Gossampinus malabarica. HPLC was used for the contents determination of chlorogenic acid and tectoridin. The column was Diamonsil C18 with mobile phase of acetoni-trile-0.4% phosphoric acid(pH adjusted with to 2.05 with triethylamine)(10∶90,V/V,chlorogenic acid or 18∶82,V/V,tectoridin) at a flow rate of 1 ml/min,the detection wavelength was 327 nm(chlorogenic acid)or 265 nm(tectoridin),the column tempera-ture was 25 ℃,and the injection volume was 10 μl. RESULTS:TLC of Cichorii Herba,Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma and G. malabarica showed clear spots and good separation. The linear range was 19.7-98.7 μg/ml for chlorogenic acid (r=0.999 5) and 25.4-126.8 μg/ml for tectoridin(r=0.999 8);RSDs of precision,stability and reprosucibility tests were lower than 4%,average re-coveries were 97.01%-104.98%(RSD=3.64%,n=9)、98.44%-104.58%(RSD=1.84%,n=9). CONCLUSIONS:The optimized and improved standard is helpful for the quality control of Daziran wuhua yin.

Objective To analyze the clinical feature and common etiology of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) in children. Methods Clinical data from 138 children with initially diagnosed DAH were retrospectively analyzed. The etiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis had been summarized. Results Among 138 children, 76 were male and 62 were female. The clinical features are pallor ( 130 cases, 94 . 2%), cough ( 86 cases, 62 . 3%), fever ( 74 cases, 53 . 6%), anhelation ( 67 cases, 48 . 6%), hemoptysis ( 59 cases, 42 . 8%) and dyspnea ( 43 cases, 31 . 2%). Chest imaging changes were mainly patch shadow and ground glass shadow. Moreover, the detection rate of hemosiderin cells in sputum, gastric juice and bronchoalveolar lavage lfuid was 90 . 8%( 79/87 ). The common underlying diseases that caused DAH were idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis ( 65 cases), hematological system disease ( 22 cases), vascular inlfammatory diseases ( 15 cases), infectious diseases ( 14 cases) and cardiovascular disease ( 5 cases). The mortality rate in acute phase of DHA was 23 . 2%( 32/138 ). Conclusions DHA is a life-threatening clinical emergency disease, its cause was complex and diverse, and the acute mortality rate is high. Glucocorticoid is the ifrst choice of treatment for majority of patients.

Objective To investigate the possible risk factors for prognosis of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) in children and to improve the recognition of the disease.Methods The study included 62 DAH pediatric patients hospitalized from January, 2006 to January, 2016. Clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. According to the basic diseases, children were divided into immune associated DAH and non-immune associated DAH to explore the effect of early glucocorticoid treatment on the two groups of DAH. Based on the prognosis, the patients were divided into the death group and the survival group to analyze its related risk factors.Results Of the 62 patients, 20 were of immune associated DAH, 42 of non-immune associated DAH. There was no signiflcant difference of early treatment with glucocorticoid between the two groups (P>0.05). In our cohort, 30 patients died, the total mortality was 48.4% (30/62). Pediatric critical illness score may be the independent risk factor for DAH mortality.Conclusions DAH is an acute, life-threatening event, the lower the pediatric critical illness score, the higher risk of death.

Objective To investigate the effect of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) on the disruption of tight junctions in rat glomerular endothelial cells (rGEnCs) and the role of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in this pathological procedure.Methods Primary cultured rGEnCs were incubated with AGEs at concentrations of 20 mg/L,40 mg/L and 80 mg/L,for 6 h,12 h and 24 h respectively.The cells were treated with captopril (1 mmol/L) or valsartan (10 μ mol/L)to block RAS.The endothelial permeability was investigated by transendothelial electrical resistance and the flux of fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated bovine serum albumin.The expression of AGEs receptor (RAGE),tight junction proteins [occludin,claudin-5,junctional adhesion molecules A (JAM-A) and zona occludens-1 (ZO-1)]and RAS components [angiotensinogen,renin and angiotensin Ⅱ type 1 receptor (AT1)]were detected by Western blotting.Immunofluorescence was used to demonstrate the disruptions of the tight junction proteins.The activity of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) was evaluated by UV spectrophotometry.Angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ ) was measured by enzyme immunoassay.Results The monolayer permeability,the expression of RAGE,the activity of ACE,the concentration of Ang Ⅱ and the expression of AT1 of rGEnCs were increased after induced by AGEs.Meanwhile,AGEs decreased the expression of occludin,claudin5 and JAM-A and induced disruption of tight junction proteins.Pretreatment with anti-RAGE antibody (100 mg/L),captopril or valsartan could attenuate the detrimental effect of AGEs.Conclusion The changes of permeability induced by AGEs in glomerular endothelial cells are partly mediated by RAS through RAGE.

Using uniform design to optimize some relative factors influencing the expressing of t-PA variant-rPA(K) in E.coli system, and found the best expressive conditions. They were(by using 300ml culture fask): the volume of media was 25ml, inducing time was 5.3 hours, pH was 6.0, the concentration of IPTG was 0.1mmol/L, inducing time was 25℃, and best culture media was HD. After being optimized, the yield of expression had been improved from 0.16 to 0.48, and it was as 3 times as before. The results above will offer the basement for purification and renaturation of rPA(K).
