Objective To investigate the relationship of cardiac function and ventricular structure with the training intensity and the periods lived in Tibet.Methods Sixty recruits to Tibet were selected and examined of their cardiac function,cardiac ventricular structure and the changes of elctrophysiology by color Doppler echocardiography and electro cardiogram.They were examined continuously in two years.After their training for three months together,they were divided into the different training intensity groups,Group A and Group B.The 30 recruits in Group A had high-intensity training,and the others in Group B had normal training.Results After three months,their cardiac function and ventricular structure had obvious difference in comparison with the level on plain( P 0.05 ).But there were obvious differences between in Tibet and on plain in the parameters of cardiac function and ventricular structure two years later( P 0.05 ).Conclusions Hypoxia can effect the cardiac function and ventricular structure directly.After three months in Tibet,cardiac function can fit the condition of hypoxia.The parameters of cardiac function are still less than those on plain.The right ventricules are bigger and the pulmonary arteries wider as the main character of the ventricular structure changes.The indexes of cardiac function showed no significant difference with the training intensity and the periods in Tibet.
4.Review on studies of acupuncture treatment for luteinized unruptured follicle syndrome
Journal of Acupuncture and Tuina Science 2015;(6):398-404
Luteinized unruptured follicle syndrome (LUFS), a specific type of ovulation disorder, is for a cause of female infertility. Acupuncture therapy has a good effect for LUFS. In order to understand the clinical effects and research situation of acupuncture therapy for LUFS, the author analyzed and reviewed the relevant literature. It was indicated by the findings that acupuncture therapy and integrative therapy of acupuncture and Chinese herbs have good therapeutic effect for this disease. Acupuncture therapy has the effect to promote ovulation. By the therapeutic principle to tonify the kidney and circulate blood, acupuncture therapy mostly was adopted in the period of ovulation. The acupoints are mostly selected from the lower abdomen and lower limbs, possibly based upon syndrome differentiation at the same time. The needling techniques are of certain characteristics. But, the issues of low quality, un-standardized inclusive, exclusive criteria and effective criteria still exist in the current clinical study.

Objective To study the effects of mosapride and domperidone on the pulmonary infection of acute stroke patients lying in bed and with nasal feeding. Methods Eighty-nine acute stroke patients lying in bed and with nasal feeding were divided randomly into the treatment group (47 cases) and the control group (42 cases). The control group was treated routinely,and the treatment group was treated with mosapride 5 mg and domporidone 20 mg thrice a day for 4 weeks, besides routine therapy. The incidence rate of pulmonary infection, gastric residual volume (GRV) and the number of cases with gastric contents remaining after 3 hours of nasal feeding were studied. All data were analyzed statistically. Results In the treatment group, 13 cases had pulmonary infection,and the incidence rate was 27.66%(13/47). In the control group,25 cases had pulmonary infection,and the incidence rate was 59.52% (25/42). There was significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.01 ). Three hours after nasal feeding,24 cases with gastric contents remaining were discovered in the treatment group,and GRV was (50.80±15.38) ml. Two hundred and thirty-seven cases with gastric contents remaining were discovered in the control group, and GRV was (112.17±32.54) ml. Significance differences were also detected between the two groups (P<0.01). Conclusion As for the acute stroke patients lying in bed and with nasal feeding,mosapride and domperidone can remarkably cut down the pulmonary infection upon common treatment.
