Chinese meteria medica (CMM) chain is a long-span chain covering agriculture which mainly depends on the forces of nature as well as high-tech CMM industry, CMM expertise industry and fast developing CMM circulation industry. Imbalance among the development of these industries produces bottlenecks and hinders the operation of the entire production chain. After analyzing the structure of Chinese meteria medica industrial chain from the perspective of national economy industry, three industry classifications and differentiation of factor intensity, we conclude that the complex structure of CMM industry chain is attributable to these three aspects. And the complexity is mainly shown at complex industry, varied product types, different coordination of various industrial sections and different technical growth speed of varied industry. We propose that structural complexity is the natural property of the chain, which is the main reason of industry sector development imbalance and bottleneck. Results of this research could provide theoretical analysis for future research on the coordination of industrial chain and the efficiency of resource allocation.

Methods This series included 123 patients with superficial bladder cancer (T 1),consisting of transitional cell carcinoma GⅠ in 37 cases,GⅡ in 73 and GⅢ in 13.They all underwent surgical treatment. Postoperatively, they were randomly assigned to 2 groups:63 patients in elemene group received instillation of elemene (400 mg,once a week) 2 weeks after operation and 60 patients in mitomycin C (MMC) group received instillation of MMC(40 mg,once a week) 2 weeks after operation. The instillations were repeated for 6 weeks and thereafter monthly for 1 year.The recurrence rates,side effects,and NK cell activity before and after treatment were evaluated. Results The recurrence rate of elemene group (mean follow-up of 19.7 months) was 7.9% (5 cases),which was significantly lower than that (25.0%,15 cases) of MMC group (mean follow-up of 19.4 months;P

Objective To establish a simple , practical , highly-effective and stable method for the isolation and cultivation of rat hair follicle cells. Methods Under sterile condition, single hair follicle was taken out after the skin around the barbel of SD neonatal rats was sheared off. And then the hair follicles were digested with two-step method with Type Ⅰcollagenase and trypsin. The obtained cell suspension was planted into the culture plate which was covered with extracellular matrix, and then was cultivated with K-SFM culture medium containing fetal bovine serum with volume fraction of 1%. On the next day, K-SFM culture medium was replaced with serum-free culture medium. The remaining tissues were cut into pieces and spread out in the culture flask, and then were cultivated with HG-DMEM culture medium containing serum. Two kinds of cells were harvested and then were identified by immunofluorescence. The hair follicle epithelial cells were tested by flow cytometer. Results The hair follicle epithelial cells obtained through the above methods showed rapid adherence, and were round or polygon-like , with typical cobblestone-like morphology. The long spindle-shaped cells were seen around the tissues cultivated, having many protrusions on the surface of the cells, and they were interconnected into reticular structure. The expression of cytokeratin 15, cytokeratin 19 and β1 integrin in epithelial cells were positive. Most of the epithelial cells were in the G1 phase, accounting for 75.6%. The expression of laminin ( LN), fibronectin ( FN) and vimentin in the connective tissue sheath cells were also positive. Conclusion The cells harvested by modified two-step enzyme digestion method have confirmed as hair follicle cells and fibroblasts, and the obtained cells are of rapid adherence, good homogeneity, and active proliferation.

Objective To explore the feasibility of repairing skin defect with Pelnac tissue engineering skin and cultured epidermal stem cells ( ESCs) and fibroblasts. Methods ESCs and fibroblasts in SD rats were isolated and cultured in vitro, and then were detected by immunohistochemistry. Fibroblasts were seeded in Pelnac material to construct dermis, and ESCs were seeded on the surface of dermis to construct tissue engineering skin. Thirty BALC/c nude mice were randomly divided into groups A, B and C. After mouse back skin defect model was established, group A was transplanted with Pelnac material, group B was transplanted with compound of Pelnac and fibroblasts, and group C was transplanted with Pelnac tissue engineering skin. The wound healing was observed after operation. The wound tissues were sampled for pathological histology test on the 5th and 7th day after transplantation. Results The expression of cytokeratin 15 and β1 integrin in ESCs was positive, and the expression of laminin ( LN) and fibronectin ( FN) in fibroblasts was positive. In group C, the wound healing of nude mice was the best, characterized by the proliferation of fibroblasts, obvious new capillaries and regularly arranged epidermal cells at the transplantation sites. Conclusion Pelnac tissue engineering skin has good effects on promoting repair of skin defect of nude mice.

Objective To determine the prevalence of vulvovaginal candidiasis(VVC) in pregnant women,to test its antifungal susceptibility to miconazole,clotrimazole,fluconazole, itrocona- zole,and nystatin and to treat VVC with miconazole in pregnancy. Methods Vaginal swabs were collected from unselected pregnant women in prenatal clinic. The antifungal susceptibility of 131 strains of Candidas to miconazole,clotrimazole,fluconazole,itroconazole,and nystatin were detected by Neo-Sensitabs susceptibility testing. 66 cases of VVC were treated with 6 day-course of miconazole(400 mg/d). Results The prevalence of VVC in pregnant women was 12.7%(127/1000). 37.4%(374/1000) had previous VVC. 0.6%(6/1000)of women were recurrent VVC(RVVC),which occupied 4.7%(6/127) of VVC. C. albicans was the most frequently(87.1%) isolated pathogen followed by C. glabrata (9.9%) ,C. tropicalis(1.5%),and C. krsei(1.5%). The resistant rate of C. albicans to miconazole,clotrimazole,fluconazole,itroconazole,and nystatin was 10.5%、2.6%、 6.1%、 7.9%,and 0. All 13 strains of C. glabrata was susceptible to miconazole,nystatin and susceptible or susceptible-dependent-upon-dose (SDD) to clotrimazole,fluconazole,and itroconazole. The mycological cure rate of miconazole on day 7～14 and day 28～42 was 84.8%(56/66 cases) and 80.3% (53/66 cases). Conclusions VVC is very common in pregnancy. C. albicans is the predominant Candida species in VVC and has some resistance to miconazole,clotrimazole,fluconazole,itroconazole,and nystatin. Miconazole therapy is effective on VVC treatment in pregnant women. Non-effective treatment might be associated with Candidas resistance.
