Objectives To investigate the clinical significance of plasma adrenomedullin (ADM) concentrations in patients with asthma.Methods The plasma ADM concentrations in 23 asthmatic patients with an acute attack and 18 asthmatic patients in remission stage were measured by radioimmunoassay.Linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the correlations between two variables.Twenty healthy subjects served as a normal control group.Results The plasma ADM concentrations in asthmatic patients with an acute attack [(28.73?7.12)ng/L]were significantly higher than those of stable asthmatic patients [(13.85?4.48)ng/L,P0.05).Conclusion The results suggest that ADM is involved in the pathophysiological process of acute asthma attack and may play an important role in the inflammation of asthmatic airways.

Objective To investigate the effect of implementation of hand hygiene(HH)activities on HH compliance among health care workers(HCWs).Methods In May-December 2013,a series of HH intervention measures in a hospital were implemented,compliance to HH among all clinical and laboratory HCWs in April-December 2013 (before and after in-tervention)were surveyed and compared.Results After implementing HH activities,HH compliance rate of HCWs in-creased from 39.82% before intervention to 80.77% after intervention,HH compliance rates of doctors,nurses and clean-ing staff increased from 41.09%,41.30% and 34.33% before intervention to 83.87%,91.89%,and 59.54% after inter-vention respectively,the differences between before and after intervention were all statistically significant (all P <0.001). Except intensive care unit,HH compliance rates of HCWs in departments of surgery,internal medicine,and radiotherapy were all higher than pre-intervention(all P <0.001).Compliance to five indications for HH among HCWs after interven-tion were all higher than pre-intervention(all P <0.001 ),HH compliance rate before touching a patient increased from 23.88% to 73.37%,before clean/aseptic procedure increased from 58.65% to 94.23%.Conclusion Through the imple-mentation and supervision of HH activities,both the awareness and compliance of HH among HCWs have been significant-ly improved,good HH habit is gradually developed.

Objectives To explore ventilation induced cytokine production and the role of oxidant stress in lung stretch. Methods Both in vitro and in vivo models of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) were used. Alveolar epithelial cells were stretched in vitro to mimic the lung injury in VILI. Rats were ventilated at large tidal volume to produce ventilator-induced lung injury in vivo. A total of 23 inflammatory cytokines were screened with micro gene array in stretched alveolar epithelial cells. Cytokines found to have up-regulated in cells were measured in serum and lung tissue of rats exposed to large tidal volume ventilation. For investigating the intracellular pathway of cytokine up-regulation in VILI, exogenous TNF-α or H2O2 was added to culture media of alveolar epithelial cells. Cytokines were then measured. To explore the role of oxidant stress in VILI, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), as an anti-oxidant, was used in vitro and in vivo. Results We found that transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1 and transforming growth factor-β2 (TGF β2) were up-regulated in stretched alveolar epithelial cells and also in serum of rats with large tidal volume ventilation. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) had no effects on TGF-β production in alveolar epithelial cells. Exogenous H2O2, as an oxidant, increased TGF-β production in alveolar epithelial cells. NAC, an anti-oxidant, decreased stretch induced TGF-β production, along with a down-regulation of oxidant injury. NAC also blocked the up-regulation of TGF-β in in vivo model of VILI. Conclusion TGF-β1 and TGF-β2 were up-regulated in VILI. Oxidant injury mediated up-regulation of TGF-β in VILI. NAC, which attenuated oxidant injury and blocked TGF-β up-regulation in VILI, could be a future therapeutic strategy in VILI.

Objective:To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on the expression of erythropoie-tin-producing hepatocyte receptor B2 (EphB2) in the cortex around the infracted area of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rats at different timing, and to reveal the possible mechanism of acupuncture in the treatment of cerebral ischemia.
Methods:A total of 180 male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into a sham operation group, a model group, an acupoint group and a non-acupoint group, with 45 rats in each group. Rats in each group were further divided into three subgroups: postoperative 3 d, postoperative 14 d and postoperative 21 d groups, with 15 rats in each subgroup. The MCAO model was made by the modified occlusion method. The neurological function score, 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, immunohistochemistry assay, immunofluorescence double labeling method and Western blot were used to detect the corresponding indicators.
Results:The neurological impairment of rats was most obvious at postoperative 3 d, and then gradually improved with time, which was more significant in the acupoint group (P<0.05). The change of infarcted volume was consistent with the neurological function impairment. The number of EphB2 positive cells (EphB2+) around the infarcted area was decreased significantly at postoperative 3 d, and then gradually improved with time, which returned to the same level as that in the sham operation group at postoperative 21 d. The increase was most significant in the acupoint group (P<0.05), and the positive cell number was higher than that in the sham operation group (P<0.01). Western blot and immunohistochemistry results were basically consistent. Immunofluorescence displayed that EphB2+ and postsynaptic density-95 positive (PSD-95+) were co-expressed, after the MCAO operation, in the cortical neuron around the infracted area, and the number of co-expressing cells was increased gradually with time, which was most significant in the acupoint group (P<0.05).
Conclusion:Electroacupuncture at Ganshu (BL 18) and Shenshu (BL 23) can significantly improve the neurological function and cerebral infarcted volume ratio of MCAO rats, which may be related to the activation of EphB2 expression in cortex around the infracted area and the promotion of synaptic remodeling.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of warm needling moxibustion plus flash cupping for remission-stage peripheral facial paralysis (FP) due to wind-cold.
Methods:Fifty eligible patients were randomized into a warm needling moxibustion group and an acupuncture-cupping group, 25 cases in each group. The warm needling moxibustion group was intervened by acupuncture at Fengchi (GB 20), Yangbai (GB 14) towards Yuyao (EX-HN 4), Xiaguan (ST 7), Dicang (ST 4) towards Jiache (ST 6), Quanliao (SI 18), and Hegu (LI 4), plus warm needling moxibustion at Quanliao (SI 18); the acupuncture-cupping group received flash cupping on the affected side in addition to the intervention given to the warm needling moxibustion group. The two groups were both treated once a day, 10 times as a treatment course, for 3 courses in total. The House-Brackmann (H-B) facial nerve grading system was observed before and after the intervention to evaluate the facial nerve function in the two groups, and the therapeutic efficacies were also compared between the two groups.
Results:The two treatment protocols both can promote the recovery of facial nerve function. The total effective rate was 92.0% in the acupuncture-cupping group versus 72.0% in the warm needling moxibustion group, and the between-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).
Conclusion:Warm needling moxibustion plus flash cupping can produce a more significant efficacy than dry warm needling moxibustion in treating remission-stage peripheral FP due to wind-cold.
