Objective To observe the expressions of the chemokine receptor CXCR3 and its ligand IFN-?-inducible protein-10(IP-10) in lung tissue of asthmatic model mice and to explore further the effect of dexamethasone(DEX)and bacillus Calmette-Guerin vaccine(BCG)on the expressions of CXCR3 and IP-10.Methods Forty Kunming mice were randomly divided into 4 groups:asthmatic group,DEX group,BCG group and control group,10 in each group.Mice were sensitized and challenged with ovalbumin (OVA) to establish asthmatic models.Ten mice in DEX group were administrated DEX (2 mg/kg) by abdomen injection 30 min before challenge (DEX group).Ten mice in BCG group were injected BCG(0.025 mg) intradermally 7,3,and 1 days before sensitization.The mice in control group mice were treated with 9 g/L saline instead of OVA.Mice of each group were executed 24 hours after the final challenge.Their lung tissue were paraffin embedded,sliced and stained by HE.The expressions of CXCR3 and IP-10 protein in lung tissue of mice were detected by immunohistochemistry.Results Distinct differences were discovered in the expressions of CXCR3(F=4.602 P=0.008) and IP-10(F=4.207 P=0.012) among the 4 groups.The expressions of CXCR3 and IP-10 in lung tissue of mice in asthmatic group were significantly higher than those in control group (Pa=0.002),while that in DEX group were significantly lower than that in asthmatic group (P=0.029,0.019).There were no significant difference between the BCG group and asthmatic group.Conclusions The chemokine receptor CXCR3 and its ligand IP-10 play an important roles in mechanisms in the pathogenesis of asthma.DEX and BCG can interfere the expressions of CXCR3 and IP-10 in varying degress.

Various reasons are responsible for the current tension and conflicts in physician-patient relationship,in which media factors contribute a lot.It is of great significance for promoting the construction of a harmonious society and soothing physician-patient conflicts to conduct research on media factors affecting current physician-patient relationship and seek for relevant countermeasures.

Objective To study the role of early release of tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?) and nuclear factor-?B(NF?B) activation on inflammatery mediators expression and neutrophil accumulation in the liver after ischemia/reperfusion . Methods The models of partial hepatic ischemia in Wistar rats were established. Rats received either Pentoxifylline (PTX) 50mg/kg(PTX group) or sterile saline (control group) via peritoneal injection at 1h before ischemia;Sham operation group was also established. Results Compared with control group,in PTX treatment group, the release of the TNF-?, the content of NF?B p65, expression of MIP-2 mRNAand ICAM-1 mRNA were significant decreased;the levels of MPO,AST,ALT, LDH,and W/D were also reduced significantly(all P

This paper studied the development stages in terms of the public nature of public hospitals in China and analyzed the causes for their weakened public benefits.It proposed the principle of government guidance,achieving government purchasing of healthcare services as the roadmap,as well as building and improving the service purchasing system,performance appraisal system,and payment review system along with supervision system.These measures are designed to make public hospitals in their public benefit nature with scientific system design,powerful institutional guarantee,and efficient execution strategies.

An analysis of the fundamental concepts for public hospital reform further defined public hospitals and other hospitals,business and non-business in nature,public benefits and welfare,as well as public benefits and profit-oriented hospitals.These distinctions can help reformers of public hospitals clarify their concepts,make clear the purpose and direction of the public hospitals reform,so as to speed up the reform with theory support.

Objective To investigate the method and effect of free autogenous palmaris longus tendon transplantation in the treatment of moderate and severe cicatricial ectropion.Methods The autogenous palmaris longus tendon was obtained through a small lateral proximal wrist band incision (lengths from 4 cm to 6 cm).The graft was properly sutured to the exposed tarsus and the attachments of inner and outer canthus.Local skin flap was rotated to cover the tendon and to repair the wound.Results Six man (8 eyes) with moderate and severe cicatricial ectropion were treated in our department,all case of ectropion were rectified after operation.The eyeballs were well contacted with lower eyelid and no recurrence of eetropion,epiphora and corneal exposure during 6 to 18 months' follow-up.The tension of the lower eyelid was abiding with satisfied effects.Conclusions The palmaris longus tendon is easy to obtain and there is no harm to the donor site.The cicatricial ectropion could be repaired with self-palmaris longus tendon transplantation with lasting effect and the recurrence rate is lower,which is well worthy popularizing.

BACKGROUND: Poly hydroxybutyrate-hydroxyvalerate (PHBV) has been used to construct bioprosthetic heart valve. It remains unclear whether it can be used as membrane for guided bone regeneration. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the biocompatibility of PHBV membrane and evaluate its efficiency of promoting bone regeneration in vivo. METHODS: Effects of 100%, 75%, 50%, 25% PHBV extract solution on relative growth rate of dog bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were measured by MTT method and cytotoxicity of the biomaterials was evaluated. Bone defects were made on distal bilateral tibias and treated with PHBV membrane; the proximal bilateral tibias undergoing reduction of periosteal flap and were used as control. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The toxicity gradation of PHBV membranes was grade 0-1. That is, they were not toxic to growth and proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. New bone regeneration was observed in the defects covered with PHBV membranes at week 2 post-surgery. The defects covered with PHBV membranes were filled with mature bone at week 12 post-surgery. The bone repair in experimental groups was earlier and better than that in control groups. Results demonstrated that PHBV membrane, which has no cytotoxicity to mesenchymal stem cells in a wide range of extract concentration, could be a promising biopolymer membrane for guided bone regeneration.

BACKGROUND: Bone implant materials have been previously reported to be not coincident between inducing velocity of new bone formation and degradation velocity itself; therefore, the materials could not be completely degraded but formed into foreign substances. A novel artificial bone implant material, characterizing by well biocompatibUity, biodegradation, and biomechanics, is focused in biomaterials field recently.OBJECTIVE: To study the biodegredation of a novel bionic scaffold with nanostructure, i.e., poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerata)/sol gel bioactive glass (PHBV/SGBG), in vivo. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A controlled animal experiment was performed at Animal Experimental Center of the Third Hospital affiliated to Sun Yat-sen University from May 2005 to October 2006. MATERIALS: PHBV/SGBG was provided by Materials Institute of South China University of Technology, and ethylene oxide was sterilized for preparation.METHODS: Eight hybrid dogs were used to make models of Ubia diaphyseal defect, having two defects on both left and right sides. The tibia diaphyseal defects at proximal part were considered as the control group, and those were not performed with any treatment; while, the tibia diaphyseal defects at distal part were considered as the experimental group, and PHBV/SGBG was fully implanted into the defect regions. Every two dogs were sacrificed at different time points of 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks, respectively. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: In vivo biodogradation and osteogenesis were monitored under optic microscopy and electron microscope.RESULTS: The PHBV/SGBG scaffold had well biodegradation and rapid degradation velocity, and it began to degrade at two weeks after operation. The PHBV/SGBG scaffold was almost replaced by new bone tissues at 8 weeks after operation and completely degraded at 12 weeks after operation. In addition, the PHBV/SGBG scaffold had a good ability to induce new bone formation from edge to center. Whereas, surface depression in the defect region was still visible in the control group, cortical bone was not formed in embedded region of soft tissue; furthermore, electron microscopy demonstrated that calcium salt deposition was increased in the bone defect region, and the structure was tight; however, the defect was not completely repaired, and some voids were still visualized.CONCLUSION: The novel bionic scaffold, PHBV/SGBG, degrades fast in vivo to generate new bone tissues. The new bone regenerate accompanied by a fitting degradation of the novel bionic scaffold that achieve complete repair.
