Through all times and around the world,those who discipline themselves with high ethical standards can be regarded as truly noble men successfully taking advantage of moral authority of the people.Books on the art of war in ancient China raised a couple of ethical requirements for those superior military officers and governors.If officers want to affect his men′s mental state and generate the army′s spirit of combat effectiveness,they must assume a certain degree of ethical responsibility.Also,active share of ethical responsibility calls to take the initiative to develop a sense of ethical responsibility.Furthermore,to develop a sense of ethical responsibility calls for the building of ethical self-consciousness to participate in the training of ethical responsibility.However,the participation of ethical building consciousness can not be separated from the ethical sense of responsibility.In conclusion,each part of the three links,complementing each other,can not be biased and separated.

Objective To design and prepare recombinant mutant human high mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1s) that can combine with HMGB1 receptors but cannot produce inflammatory effect, and accordingly lead to the creation of a new potential agent for anti-inflammatory therapy. Methods This experiment was based on successful clone and expression of human HMGB1.Six mutant HMGB1 cDNA were designed and constructed by one step inverse PCR. They were cloned into prokaryotic expressive vector pQE80L and followed with production of mutant HMGB1s and identification by Western blotting. Results Six mutant proteins were designed and constructed into prokaryotic expressive vector pQE80L. The recombinant HMGB1 proteins were obtained and identified by Western blotting. Conclusion Human HMGB1 mutants have been successfully constructed and the expression and characterization of intent proteins are identified. It will lay a foundation for further study on biological functions of HMGB1.

Objective To explore the efficacy of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods The literature about HRT in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis were searched.Eleven papers were subjected to a Meta-analysis and a heterogeneity test was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of HRT.Results HRT reduced the level of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) in RA patients (P=0.016),the SMD was-0.22(-0.40,-0.04); improved bone mineral density (BMD) in RA patients (P=0.022),the WMD was 2.83(0.41,5.26); decreased clinical parameters for disease activity evaluations of RA patients (P=0.048),the SMD was-0.19 (-0.38,0.00); decreased the level of C-reactive protein (CRP) in RA patients,the SMD was-0.08 (-0.37,0.21),but the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.591).Conclusion The findings from this Meta-analysis indicate that HRT can reduce the ESR level,improve clinical indexes and improve BMD level of RA patients.HRT may suppress disease activity and osteoporosis of RA patients,so it may be used as an auxiliary therapy in the treatment of RA.

Objective To explore the function of autonomic nerves system in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) combined with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT). Methods Fifty children having PSVT and no CHD (PSVT group), 30 children with both PSVT and CHD (CHD group), and 50 cases of healthy children (control group) were selected. The difference of 24-hour heart rate variability (HRV) among three groups was analyzed retrospectively. Results There were statistical differences in the long-range time domain HRV indexes, including SDNN, SDANN, SDNN Index, pNN 50 , and RMSSD among three groups (F=80.32-?263.18, P all??0.05). The SDNN, SDANN, SDNN Index, pNN50, and RMSSD were signiifcantly decreased in CHD group compared with PSVT group (P all?

Objective To investigate the effect of one-lung ventilation (OLV) on the occurrence of subcutanous emphysema during retroperitoneal laparoscopic urologic surgery (RPLUS).Methods Twenty-seven ASA Ⅰor Ⅱ patients,aged 29-64 yr,with body mass index 19-25 kg/m2,scheduled for elective RPLUS,were randomly divided into 2 groups:two-lung ventilation (TLV) group (group Ⅰ,n =15) and OLV group (group Ⅱ,n =12).In group Ⅰ,the patients were tracheal intubated and TLV was performed.In group Ⅱ,the left-sided double lumen endobronchial tube was inserted and TLV was performed,OLV on the non-operated side was performed starting from 10-15 min before pneumoperitoneum and TLV resumed at the end of pneumoperitoneum.The end-tidal CO2 partial pressure and minute ventilation volume were measured before pneumoperitoneum (T1),at 30 and 60 min of pneumoperitoneum (T2,3),and at 30 min after the end of pneumoperitoneum (T4).The CO2 absorption capacity was calculated.The degree of pneumoderma was assessed and the occurance of pneumoderma was recorded at the end of pneumoperitoneum.Results Compared with group Ⅰ,the CO2 absorption capacity was significantly reduced,and the degree and incidence of pneumoderma were significantly decreased in group Ⅱ (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion OLV on the non-operated side can reduce the CO2 absorption capacity,decrease the degree of subcutaneous emphysema and reduce the occurrence of subcutanous emphysema during pneumoperitoneum in patients undergoing RPLUS.

Objective:To evaluate the endothelial functions and autoregulation capacity of cerebral blood flow in patients with Fabry disease .Methods:Brachial artery vasodilation was assessed in 8 pa-tients with Fabry disease and 14 healthy controls by means of flow-mediated dilation ( FMD) and Nitro-glycerin-mediated dilation ( NMD) .Cerebrovascular reactivity was calculated in terms of breath-holding index ( BHI) and vascular motor reactivity ( VMR) by TCD-CO2 test in 4 patients and 14 healthy con-trols.Results:Compared with the controls , brachial artery vasodilation experiment showed no difference (the patients:FMD 15.94%±5.03% and NMD 23.92%±7.23%, the controls: FMD 14.57%± 5 .84% and NMD 22 .64%±6 .96%) , there was no relationship between FMD or NMD and the age , course of disease , MSSI or enzyme activity .In respect of cerebrovascular autoregulation capacity , there was no difference in anterior circulation , while cerebrovascular reactivity tended to be impaired in posteri-or circulation .Conclusion:Endothelial function showed no decline in patients with Fabry disease , but cerebrovascular autoregulation capacity tended to be impaired in posterior circulation .

Objective To investigate the cerebral vascular autoregulation in patients with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis and strokc-like episodes (MELAS) during the remission of stroke-like episodes,including cerebrovascular CO2 reactivity and vascular endothelial function.Methods Twenty-nine MELAS patients confirmed by genetic analysis were recruited in this study. They underwent the examination at least 2 weeks after the onset of last stroke-like episode.Twenty-eight healthy people were collcctcd as healthy controls. Carotid ultrasound and brain magnetic resonance angiogram (MRA) were done to evaluate the cervical and intracranial appearance of large arteries. Evaluation of vascular autoregulation included: (1) the cerebrovascular CO2 reactivity with breath-holding test by transcranial Doppler and calculating breath holding index (BHI),and ( 2 ) flow-mediatcd dilation ( FMD )and nitroglycerin-mediated dilation with ultrasound assessment of humeral artery.Independent-samples t test was done between the results of two groups.Results Carotid ultrasound and cranial MRA revealed no abnormalities in both MELAS patients and healthy controls.The BHI of MELAS patients was significantly decreased than that of normal controls ( 1.36 ± 0.52 vs 1.81 ±0.26,t =- 3.693,P ＜ 0.01 ),and the FMD of MELAS patients was also significantly lower than that of normal controls (11.0％ ±4.8％ vs 15.8％ ±5.8％,t =-3.390,P ＜0.01).Conclusion The function of vascular autoregulation,including cerebrovascular CO2 reactivity and FMD,is impaired in MELAS patients.

Objective To assess the clinical and pathological feature of patients with livedo vasculitis.Methods Clinical data were collected from 47 patients with livedo vasculitis,and retrospectively analyzed.All the patients were classified into three groups according to treatment strategy:anticoagulation group,anticoagulation + corticosteroids group,and anticoagulation + sulfasalazine group.Results Clinically,livedo vasculitis usually began as petechia or ecchymosis,edema with distending pain,followed by spotty necrosis which subsequently evolved into vermiculated ulcers and,finally,atrophie blanche.Pathological features included fibrinoid degeneration of and thrombus formation in small vessel walls within the superficial or deep dermis,as well as a sparse lymphocytic infiltrate around the injured vessels.The average time to onset of action of administrated drugs was (9.14 ± 3.48),(5.62 ± 1.04) and (8.23 ± 2.68) days,and time to remission was (2.57 ± 1.41),(4.06 ± 1.51) and (5.64 ± 1.32) months,in the anticoagulation group,anticoagulation + corticosteroids group and anticoagulation + sulfasalazine group,respectively.Conclusion Anticoagulation in combination with anti-inflammatory therapy appears to have a more rapid onset of action in the treatment of livedo vasculitis with a reduced recurrence rate compared with anticoagulation therapy alone.
