China Medical Equipment 2009;(8):20-21
If the seven constants were changed,the result of specimen testing would be affected directly.When we understand the meaning of the seven constants.the job of medical equipment maintenance and care will become more effective.Meanwhile,we should pay attention to the influence on the result caused by other factors of a constant besides the seven Coulter Constants.
2.Children with urinary fistula after hypospadias: causes and repair (report of 33 cases)
International Journal of Surgery 2011;38(8):537-540
Objective To study the causes of congenital hypospadias fistula and the repair methods,summarize surgical experience,and improve the success rate of fistula repair.Method s From January 2001 to February 2011,33 cases of urinary fistula after hypospadias urethroplasty were collected,the average age being 6.2 years (3 to 13 years).A total of 38 fistula were found,17 with fistula diameter of less than 3 mm,16 with fistula diameter of 3 - 10 mm,5 greater than 10 mm.Ligation embedding method were used,Y-V flap coverage method,a continuous inverted fistula suture,Thiersch method,Denis-Browne method and the U shaped flap covering method were used for multi-urinary fistula repair.Among the 33 cases,successful repair was found in 30 cases,with normal urination during flollow- up,good penile appearance,the success rate being 90.9%.Results The causes of hypospadias fistula after surgery in children are:vascularized free when properly drawn,resulting in poor blood supply to the flap; urine drainage was not smooth,resulting in premature suture wounds soaked in urine,causing infection; distal urethral stricture,high pressure within the urethra during urination,causing anastomotic dehiscence; suture materials of poor quality; technical immaturity.Conclusions The repair of urinary fistula after hypospadias in children has a variety of surgical procedures,choice of which should be based on fistula location,size,quantity and local conditions.

Journal of Third Military Medical University 2003;0(11):-
Objective To observe the protective effect of recombinant plasmid pCDNA3.1(+)/Ngb during focal cerebral ischemia in rat brain.Methods Fifty-four male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups:normal saline(NS)control group,plasmid control group,and recombinant neuroglobulin group.NS,plasmid pCDNA3.1(+)and recombinant plasmid pCDNA3.1(+)/Ngb were respectively injected into two sites of the rat cerebra1 cortex 24 hours before induction of neocortical focal ischemia by occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery for 24 hours.The condition of local ischemic damage,expression of bcl-2 and the apoptosis in neural cells were confirmed by staining with 2% 2.3.5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride,in-site cell apoptosis detection,indirect immunofluorescent staining and Western blotting,respectively.Results The extent of cerebral infarction tissue and the apoptosis cells in the pCDNA3.1(+)/Ngb group were significantly reduced than those in other control groups(P
5.Effects-of nuclear factor-kappa B in the progress of acute pancreatitis
International Journal of Surgery 2008;35(9):612-615
The cascade release of cytokine the critical aggravation factor for acute pancreatitis,induces the multi-ple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) and death at last. Nuclear factor-kappa B as a number of regulation of the nuclear factor can specific bind with a variety of gene promoter sites κB site, which cause inflammatory reaction, apoptosis, pathophysiologic reaction. The specific inhibitor of nuclear factor-kappa B can inhibit the activity of nu-clear factor-kappaB, inhibit the body's inflammatory response, and improve the prognosis of acute pancreatitis; it may be a potential target site for acute pancreatitis therapy. However, the other researches also found that inhibition of nuclear facter-κB could significantly increase the aggravation of acute pancreatitis. Accordingly, nuclear factor-kappa B research possess the important rank about the body's inflammatory respanse.

Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2016;40(12):903-905
Objective] Calrify the inherent laws of the appearance of Neijing’s viscera-state theory of spleen, enhancing the cognition of life view of traditional Chinese medicine’s ability. [Methods]Using the genetic methods to discuss the physiological function, physiological characteristics and physiognomy of spleen, as well as social, cultural, philosophical background and method of thinking construction. [Results] Under the guidance of the overall concept and from the pre-Qin rank system, cultural thoughts of Confucianist and Taoists, Yin-Yang five elements philosophy doctrine,by using the analogism methods and observation methods of “ estimating interior by taking charge of exterior” and the opinion of middlebrow and harmony, construct the basic frame of viscera-state theory of spleen.[Conclusion] The genetic method of TCM is an important way to deepen the level of Chinese medicine theory.

Journal of Integrative Medicine 2011;9(2):135-7
Fatty liver disease is caused by abnormal accumulation of lipids within hepatocytes. According to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory, lipids belong to the category of essence obtained from cereals and the normal distribution of essence relies on the function of spleen yang. When spleen yang is injured, the normal distribution of essence (lipids) will be affected, leading to formation of phlegm retention in the liver. That is the TCM pathogenesis of fatty liver disease. Hence the treatment of fatty liver disease should be concentrated on warming yang to activate qi. With such a treatment, the normal distribution of essence will be restored, essence will be distributed, and phlegm will be dissipated.
