[Result] By effectively promoting the cooperative learning between Chinese and international students, CPI mode could not only improve Chinese teaching effect, but also improve international students’ability on intercultural communication.[Conclusion] Based on its practice, CPI mode is believed as an effective way to improve teaching and study.

Objective To analyze the drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MT) in elderly patients with recurrent pulmonary tuberculosis .Methods We collected 1 860 M T strains from elderly patients with recurrent pulmonary tuberculosis in our hospital from January 2005 to December 2013 to review the drug resistance profile of these strains .Another 300 patients with naive pulmonary tuberculosis were included as control group .Results Significant difference was found between the males and females in terms of the resistance rate to streptomycin ,rifampicin ,ethambutol ,amikacin ,capreomycin ,or ofloxacin (P＜0 .05) .Multi‐drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR‐TB) was identified in 24 .0% (357/1 489) and extensively drug‐resistant tuberculosis (XDR‐TB) in 9 .8% (146/1 489) in male patients ,which were significantly lower than the corresponding rates of 34 .2% (127/371) and 19 .7% (73/371) in the female patients (P＜0 .05) .In all the 1 860 patients with recurrent pulmonary tuberculosis , MDR‐TB and XDR‐TB accounted for 26 .0% and 11 .8% , respectively , significantly higher than the corresponding rates of 11 .3% (34/300) and 7 .0% (21/300) in the control patients with naive pulmonary tuberculosis .Single drug resistance was identified in 20 .0% (372/1 860) of the patients with recurrent tuberculosis and 41 .0% (123/300) of the control patients (P＜0 .05) .Conclusions The MT strains isolated from elderly patients with recurrent pulmonary tuberculosis show higher resistance rate ,especially in females .It is necessary to strengthen the monitoring of drug resistance in old patients with recurrent pulmonary tuberculosis .

Objective To cvaluate the efficacy and safety of HabibTM VesOpen intravascular radiofrequency catheter percutaneous radiofrequency ablation combined with TACE in the treatment of portal vein tumor thrombus of primary hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods Thirty-nine patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma complicated with portal vein thrombosis were treated with HabibTM VesOpen intracavitary catheter ablation combined with TACE.The postoperative success rate,complication,blood index,α-fetoprotein (AFP),portal vein patency and tumor thrombus imaging changes were assessed.Results All of 39 patients underwent surgery successfully without occurrence of perforation,infection,hepatapostema,intra-abdominal hemorrhage nor other complications associated with surgery.Blood routine examinations (WBC,RBC,PLT) after 2 weeks and 4 weeks of surgery had no statistical difference compared with those of preoperation.Liver function indexes including ALT,AST,ALB had statistical difference before and after the surgery except for TBIL.AFP had statistical difference before and after surgery.Doppler ultrasonography after 4 weeks showed blood flow in original blocked portal vein.Enhanced CT or MR examinations after 8 weeks on the abdomen,suggested that tumors were shrinked or disappeared.Conclusion Radiofrequency catheter ablation with intracavitary radiofrequency catheter of HabibTM VesOpen is an effective method in the treatment of portal vein tumor thrombus in primary hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To study the effects of intrathecally administered morphine and ketamine on nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity and nitric oxide content in the spinal cord.Methods Thirty-two male Wistar rats weighing 220-260 g were anesthetized with intraperitoneal chloral hydrate 300 mg?kg-1 . A catheter was implanted in subarachnoid space at lumbal region. Sciatic constriction injury (SCI) was produced by loose ligation of right sciatic nerve trunk with 4-0 cutgut. On the 4th postoperative day the animals were randomly divided into four groups of 8 animals :(1) control group (C); (2) morphine group (M);(3) ketamine group (K) and morphine-ketamine group (KM) . Morphine 20 ?g / ketamine 20 ?g / morphine 10 ?g + ketamine 10 ?g were injected intrathecally every day for 7 consecutive days in group M, K and KM. In control group normal saline was injected intrathecally instead of morphine and / or ketamine. The withdrawal latenvies to radiant heat focused on plantar surface were measured as radiant heat threshold before intrathecal administration of the analgesic (baseline) and 30 min after intrathecal administration of ketamine and / or morphine every day for 7consecutive days. The percentage of maximal possible effect ( MPE % ) was calculated : MPE % = (latency after intrathecal administration-baseline latency) / (radiant heat cut-off time-baseline latency) X 100% . After 7 days of intrathecal administration the animals were decapitated and the spinal cord was immediately removed and the lumbal spinal cord was dissected on ice. NOS activity and nitric oxide ( NO) content were measured by spectrophotometry. Results MPE % was significantly higher in group M and KM than in group C and K ( P

Combined antiretroviral therapy ( cART) is widely used for infections of human immune deficiency virus ( HIV) .However , some antiviral drugs can not reach the effective concentrations in central nervous system due to the hinder of blood-brain barrier ( BBB) , resulting in the formation of viral reservoir in central nervous system .BBB is formed by human brain microvascular endothelial cells ( HBMVECs ) , which are connected by tight junction and a thick basement membrane , and astrocytic end-feet.This paper reviews possible mechanisms of BBB hindrance and anti-HIV drug efflux by transport proteins , as well as effective methods to deliver antiretroviral drugs into brain , including the application of nano technology .

Purpose:To investigate the expression and significance of CXCR4 in human lung cancer. Methods:Real-time RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry were performed to detect the expression of CXCR4 on 36 lung cancer specimens and 10 normal lung specimens taken from non-cancerous regions adjacent to lung cancer tissue. Results:34 of 36 cases showed positive staining of CXCR4 protein compared with normal lung specimens.CXCR4 expression was independent of pathological type or histological grade. However, in all examined cases, higher expression of CXCR4 tended to be detected in the tumor specimens with lymph node metastasis or regional invasion. Conclusions:Up-regulated expression of CXCR4 was detected in the early stage of lung cancer, and high-level expression of CXCR4 was associated with lung cancer having metastasis.
