Through the analysis on different development paths of western and Chinese medical ethics, this article proposed to construct the Chinese medical ethical review system. Although the medical ethical review system was originated in western countries, due to different origins of medical ethical thoughts, different cultures and beliefs among races, as well as different medical and science development models, the application of western medical eth-ical review system should not be mechanically used in China. The application should follow the idea of har-monization with differences. This article discussed on current status and significance of the construction of an ethical review platform which is suitable to the national conditions of China. It was also emphasized on the im-portance of ethics training among researchers.

Objective To improve the knowledge of X-ray findings of heart and lung in chronic renal failure ( CRF ) . Methods X-ray findings of heart and lung in 120 cases with CRF were analysed retrospectively.Results The X-ray appearances of lung and heart in CRF included augment and blur of hilum, increased, tortuous and disorder lung markings, accretion of heart, and the abnormal shadows in lung were irregular, inhomogeneus and changing fast in morphology. Conclusion Radiography can supply valuable messages and is ofconsiderable value in the diagnosis of CRF.

Objective This study is to study the age related changes of the expression of caspase-3 and the apoptosis states of neurons in primary auditory cortex of 15 young C57BL/6J mice(2 months, 15～20 g) and 15 old C57BL/6J mice(10 months, 50～60 g) and to determine probable physical effects underlying these changes. This paper also discusses the relationship of caspase-3 and apotosis states in primary auditory cortex, the possible role of caspase-3 in primary auditory cortex and the pathogenesis of presbycusis. Methods The immunohistochemical methods were applied to explore the differences of the expression of caspase-3 and the apoptosis states determined by TUNEI. method in the primary auditory cortex between young and old C57BL/6J mice. Results The expression of caspase-3 and apoptosis in Al of old C57BL/6J mice was significantly higher than that in the counterpart of young C57BL/6J mice. Conclusion The results presented a direct morphological evidence for the strengthening of caspase-3 in the primary auditory cortex in old C57BL/6J mice. This method has an important role in the formation and development of presbycusis. The expression of caspase-3 participated in the regulatory procedure of apoptosis and may be a possible factor of the etiologies of presbycusis.

Objective: To explore the protections of GLP-Ⅱ pretreatment on mouse intestinal mucosal immunity after ischemia/reperfusion insult. Methods: Thirty ICR mice were randomly divided into three groups: namely normal control (N), control (C) and GLP-Ⅱ pretreatment (P). Group C and group P were inflicted with ligation of superior mesenteric artery for twenty minutes. The morphology of distal ileum mucosa, the rate of intestinal bacteria translocation, the level of plasma endotoxin and intestinal IgA were determined. Results: After ischemia/reperfusion insult, there were obvious damage at distal ileum mucosa in group C and obvious proliferation in group P.The rate of intestinal bacteria translocation and the level of plasma endotoxin were significantly increased (P

Objective To investigate Bcl-2 expression in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells and its clinical significance of liver fibrosis (LF). Methods Tested Bcl-2 protein levels in T, B cells of 47 patients (male 17, female 30) with LF, 35 patients (male 24, female 11) with chronic hepatitis B and no LF and 41 cases (male 29, female 12) normal controls by two color cytofluorography. Results Among them, LF patients, chronic hepatitis B without LF and normal controls, the proposition of T cells (including CD3~+, CD4~+ and CD8~+ subgroups) and CD19~+ B cells expressed Bcl-2 protein increased significantly in LF patients (P

Objective To study the effect of glucagon-like peptide 2 (GLP-2) on the absorption- related genes [ sodium dependent glucose transporter 1 (SGLT1) and dipeptide transporter 1 (PEPT1)] mRNA expressions of residual small bowel in a rat model of short bowel syndrome. Methods Rats undertaken 75% small bowel resection were randomly assigned into 3 groups: short bowel control (SBC) group, growth hormone (GH) group and GLP-2 group. Another weight-matched normal rats with normal diet was used as normal (NC) group. All rats were given normal chow on the 1st postoperative day (POD). On the 6th POD, partial segment of terminal ileum was harvested to evaluate the mRNA expressions of SGLT1 and PEPT1 by semiquantified reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Results The mRNA expressions of both SGLT1 and PEPT1 in SBC group were significantly higher than that of NC group(P0.05). Conclusions A short term GLP-2 adiministration in early postoperative days may has no significant effect on mRNA expressions of SGLT1 and PEPT1 in residual ileum in rats with short bowel syndrome.

AIM:To study the protective effects of (E)-3-(4-(2-(dimethylamino) ethoxyl)-3-anisyl) acrylic acid(DEAAA) on focal cerebral ischemia of rats. METHODS:Middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) model was used to evaluate the drug's effects. With Ozagrel as a positive control drug,after cerebral ischemia,the effect of different doses of DEAAA on the neurological behaviors,the cerebral water volumes,the cerebral infarction areas,the cerebral biochemistry and the pathologic change of brains were evaluated. RESULTS:DEAAA (30,18 mg/kg) decreased the cerebral water volumes and the cerebral infarction areas(P
