Translational medicine is inevitable in the development of modern medicine, and the uprising concept of translational medicine provides an opportunity for the development of Chinese medicine (CM). Their ideas are well communicated. There are two patterns of researching on CM based on translational medicine: 'literature to bench to bedside' and 'bench to bedside to bench'. CM has her advantages in preventing and treating cardiovascular disease. Effective methods for preventing and treating cardiovascular disease by CM should be further studied based on translational medicine concepts.

Objective The infection of hepatitis B virus(HBV),which is a hepatotropic DNA virus,can cause acute or chronic viral hepatitis and further may develop liver fibrosis,cirrhosis and even hepatocellular carcinoma. In recent years,with the establishment of HBV transfection cell and animal models,the anti -hepatitis B virus effect of ingredients extracted from many traditional Chinese medicine has been proved.Therefore,chemical composition extracted from the resourceful library of traditional Chinese medicine,with high efficiency and low toxicity,might be the direction for developing anti -hepatitis B virus medicine.

A 52-year-old female presented with unexplained thrombocytopenia for 29 years and a prunosus plaque on the right cheek for 9 years.She had ever been treated with glucocorticoids,which resulted in a slight improvement of the condition,but the platelet count remained below the normal range.During glucocorticoid tapering,she had administrated traditional Chinese medicines for a long peroid.Recently,the plaque on the cheek became swollen and painful with a progressive decrease in platelet count.Routine blood test showed that the count of white blood cells and platelets was 3.0 × 109/L and 2 × 109/L respectively,and the concentration of hemoglobin was 85 g/L.Computed tomography (CT) scan revealed multiple liver hemangiomas,one of which in the left liver lobe measured 14 cm × 5.7 cm in size.After medical treatment,the giant hemangioma in the left lobe was resected.Thereafter,the platelet count increased to 120 × 109/L with the subsidence of swelling of the right cheek.Postoperative pathological examination confirmed a diagnosis of giant cavernous hemangioma of the liver with extensive intravascular thrombosis and thrombus organization.Based on these findings,the case was diagnosed as adult Kasabach-Merritt syndrome.

With the development of tertiary treatment system,the higher quality of inter-hospital transport is the most critical factor for the prognosis of the critically ill pediatric patients,especially for pediatric patients whose condition is deteriorating rapidly.Improving the quality,creating the guideline,and establishing the network platform of inter-hospital will provide complete guarantee for inter-hospital transport of critically ill pediatric patients.With the development of information technology,the purpose of this study was to analyze the function of the network platform of inter-hospital transport in Hunan Children′s Hospital.

We analyzed the epidemiological investigation results of the first case of human infected with avian influenza (H5N6) ,and summarized epidemiological characteristics of this case to provide reference to H 5N6 case screening and investiga‐tion in future works .We retrospectively described and analyzed the investigation progress ,specimen detection results of epi‐demic spot and intimate contact people ,and summarize epidemiological characteristics of this case .Result showed that the first case of human infected with H5N6 in Yunnan was a single case ,and did not showed human‐to‐human transmission .This case had contacts with wild bird and had birds’ market activity before diagnoses ;some environment specimen of birds market near patient’s home has detection results of H5N6 positive .This is a cases of local infection and did not show human‐to‐human transmission .From the investigation ,we could deduced that the transmission route is from birds to human or from birds to en‐vironment and then to human .

Objective To comment the severity of severe hand,foot and mouth disease(HFMD)by pediatric risk of mortality score(PRISM),and assess the performance of PRISM in predicting mortality or complication probability in HFMD.Methods Four hundred and twenty-four severe HFMD pediatric patients were recruited in the study from 1th Jan 2010 to 31th June 2013.Information on the outcome and the varia-bles required to calculate PRISM score were collected.The logistic regression model developed in the learning sample was evaluated in the test sample by calculating the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC)curve to assess discrimination pneumorrhagia and death.Calibration across deciles of risk was evalua-ted using the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit χ2 test.Results The area under the ROC curve were 0.87 (95%CI 0.80~0.94 )for PRISM in predicting pneumorrhagia probability.The area under the ROC curve were 0.87(95%CI 0.80~0.95)for PRISM in predicting mortality probability.The PRISM in observed and expected pneumorrhagia did not demonstrate good calibration at ten mortality risk intervals (χ2 =36.66, P<0.001 ).The PRISM in observed and expected mortality did not demonstrate good calibration at ten mortali-ty risk intervals(χ2 =41.11,P<0.001).Conclusion The PRISM score is demonstrated good discrimination of pneumorrhagia and death in HFMD pediatric patients,but the performance of calibration is not good.

BACKGROUND: There are currently many cryopreservation methods for the aminotic membrane, which have varying effects on the ultrastructure and biological activity of amniotic membrane, but on no one is effective.
OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of different cryopreservation methods on the ultrastructure and viability of aminotic membrane and to seek the ideal cryopreservation method.
METHODS: Aminotic membrane separated from the fresh placenta was preserved respectively with deep-frozen cryopreservation and vitrification, and everyway was run for 3 and 6 months. Fresh aminotic membrane was used as control. The ultrastructure of aminotic membrane was observed by transmission electron microscopy, and the viability of aminotic membrane was assessed by microcomputer analysis system for biological oxygen consumption, and immunohistochemical staining combined with image analysis system was used for lactate dehydrogenase activity.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After 3 and 6 months of crypreservation, the damage to the ultrastructure of aminotic membrane by vitreous cryopreservation was slighter than that of amniotic membrane cryopreserved at-80℃. Compared with the fresh aminotic membrane, the gray value of lactate dehydrogenase and partial pressure of oxygen were significantly decreased in the cryopreserved aminotic membrane by deep-frozen cryopreservation at 3 and 6 months (P < 0.05) and by vitreous cryopreservation at 6 months (P < 0.05), but there was no statisticaly significant difference in the change rate of oxygen partial pressure and the gray value of lactate dehydrogenase between the fresh aminotic membrane and the cryopreserved aminotic membrane by vitreous cryopreservation at 3 months. The present study led to the conclusion that vitreous cryopreservation protocol alows to not only maintain the integrity of AM, but also to preserve the viability of the cels. So the vitreous cryopreservation is superior to the deep-frozen cryopreservation for cryopreservation of aminotic membrane.
