The research methods, such as philology of medicine history and comparison between tradition and modern and so on were adopted in this article to study the acupuncture-moxibustion development after western medicine spreading to the East in Japan and its main transition under the impact of western medicine. The results showed that from Meiji to Showa period, under the influence of western medicine, the transition of Japanese acupuncture-moxibustion mainly embodied in following three aspects, incuinng acupuncture works absorbing western medicine knowledge, applying experiment measures to explore acupuncture principle and launching acupuncture teaching in accordance with Europe and America academy educational pattern. The changes on acupuncture works, teaching materials and methods of researching and teaching have triggered the transition and transformation of Japanese acupuncture-moxibustion from tradition to modern.

Objective:To investigate the effects of brain asymmetry on levels of IL-1?,IL-6 and suppressor of cytokine signaling-3(SOCS-3) in hypothalamus,to get better understanding of relationship between brain asymmetry and neuro-immuno-endocrine network at the molecular level.Methods:By using paw preference test,right-pawed,left-pawed,and ambidextrous mice model was established.After decapitation of the mice,hypothalamus was separated rapidly.Some samples were homogenized and used for detection of levels of interleukin-1?(IL-1?),interleukin-6(IL-6) by Enzyme-Linked-Immunosorbent Assay(ELISA).The other samples were applied to detect SOCS-3 expression level by RT-PCR.Results:(1)The level of IL-6 in hypothalamus:left-pawed were higher than right-pawed mice,there was significant difference in statistics( P 0.05).(3)The expression level of SOCS-3:the SOCS-3 expression of right-pawed showed higher than left-pawed mice in hypothalamus,revealing a significant difference( P

AIM: To investigate the influence of predator stress on hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and IL-1?, IL-6 in mice with brain asymmetry. METHODS: By using paw preference test, right-pawed, left-pawed, and ambidextrous-pawed mice model were established. Mice with brain lateralization were exposed to their predator (cat). After acute and chronic predator stress by cats, EIA and ELISA were applied to detect plasma levels of corticosterone (CS), IL-1? and IL-6. RESULTS: (1) The level of plasma CS: in both acute and chronic predator stress group, right-pawed and ambidextrous mice had a higher level than that in their corresponding normal group (P

Objective To study the influence of hydrocortisone sodium succinct by intravenous infusion or continuous intravenous micro pumping on the vital signs,shock duration,blood glucose and mortality in the patients with severe sepsis secondary shock.Methods Ninety patients with septic shock treated in our hospital from June 2014 to September 2016 were selected and divided into the control group and observasion group by using the random number table method,45 cases in each group.The control group was given hydrocortisone sodium succinct 200mg/d by slow intravenous drip for 2h,while the observasion group was given hydrocortisone sodium succinct 8.33mg/h by continuous intravenous micro pumping.The two groups were treated for continuous 5 d.The blood glucose,hemodynamics and prognosis were compared between the two groups.Results In the observasion group,the blood glucose indicators such as the time window of high blood glucose,LAGE,MBG and CV levels were lower than those in the control group,the difference had statistical significance (P<0.05).The hemodynamic indicators such as HR,CVP and MAP between the two groups before treatment and at 6,24 h and 5 d after treatment had no statistical difference between the two groups (P>0.05).The shock duration,ICU stay length,total hospital stay and 28 d mortality in the observasion group were lower than those in the control group,but the difference between the two groups had no statistical significance (P>0.05).Conclusion Continuous intravenous micro pumping of hydrocortisone sodium succinct can stabilize blood glucose fluctuation range in the patients with septic shock,but the hemodynamic indexes and prognosis have no obvious improvement.

With new acupuncture and moxibustion as the study object, based on the basic composition of acupuncture-moxibustion theory, from 3 aspects of meridian-acupoint theory, acupuncture-moxibustion method theory and acupuncture-moxibustion treatment theory, under the background of western medicine, ZHU Lian's different opinions on theory and method of acupuncture and moxibustion were discussed. It was believed by ZHU Lian that the distribution of 14-meridians was approximately identical to that of nerves, so with modern neuroanatomy knowledge to understand the meaning of acupoint; the acupuncture function could be explained from the angle of neurophysiology. Clinical diagnosis and treatment method could be established by modern classification methods of diseases. ZHU Lian's cognition that was different from traditional theory and method of acupuncture and moxibustion was combined with updated physiology and anatomy knowledge at that time, and was involved with Pavlov's advanced nerve theory, so she firstly put forward the opinion that acupuncture therapy can't work without the involvement of cerebral cortex.

To providing evidence about nitrogen adequate application of Platycodon grandiflorum, the pot culture experiment was conducted to study the effect of nitrogen on the growth, physiological metabolism and the quality of P. grandiflorum. The activity of NR, GS and SOD, POD and CAT were determined. And the nitrate and ammonium nitrogen content, photosynthetic characteristics, active components of P. grandiflorum were determined. The results showed that the nitrate nitrogen content and P. biomass reached its maximum value, when NH4(+)-N/NO3(-) -N was 0: 100, the activity of NR. The activity of GS was the highest at the NH4(+) -N/NO3(-) -N ratio of 25:75 and ammonium nitrogen content was the highest at 75:25. The activity of SOD decreased and then increased with the increasing of NO3(-) -N. At the NH4(+) -N/NO3(-) -N ratio of 25: 75, the activity of CAT had its maximum value and the content of MDA had the minimum value. At the same time, the content of platycodon D was the highest at this treatment. The studies had shown that different nitrogen forms and ratio had a significant effect on the characteristics of photosynthetic physiology, nitrogen metabolism and resistance adjustment, growth and the quality of P. grandiflorum. The NH4(+) -N/NO3(-) -N ratio of 25: 75 was a suitable ratio of nitrogen forms for the growth of P. Grandiflorum and accumulating the content of platycodon D.
