We analyzed and sorted the policies and regulations of traditional medical management in international markets which also affecting traditional Chinese medicine and summaried current situation of barriers of policy and regulation of Ttraditional Chinese medicine.After thoroughly analyzing the reasons of barriers of policy and regulation of traditional Chinese medicine,we found that the reasons lied in culture difference between China and western countries,quality of traditional Chinese medicine,low level of R&D and manufacturing,incomplete domestic laws and regulations of traditional Chinese medicine,lack of anti-technical barriers to trade service system.In the end of this paper,we came up with some countermeasures of barriers of policy and regulation when traditional Chinese medicine accessing international markets.

Australia is a country with strict drug administration, which is hard for its market access. Chinese Medicine Registration Act 2000 enacted by Victoria State of Australia established the legal status of traditional Chinese medicine in Victoria State, which made Australia the first one of western nations to legislate traditional Chinese medicine. We should take advantage of this opportunity to give in-depth analysis of laws and regulations on traditional Chinese medicine in Australia to push on traditional Chinese medicine to enter the Australia market. By analyzing the regulations of traditional Chinese medicine in Australia market, we put forward the following strategies on traditional Chinese medicine accessing Australia market: first, we should strengthen cooperation of Chinese and Australian governments; secondly, we should focus on analysis of regulations of drugs of Australia, thirdly, we should establish technical standard of herbal drugs in conformity with international standard; finally, we should strengthen traditional Chinese medicine culture exchange.

Traditional Chinese medicine is the few field of owing independent intellectual property in China, the implement of intellectual property strategy is important for the long-term development of traditional Chinese medicine enterprises. At present, traditional Chinese medicine enterprises still remain many problems in intellectual property protection, such as weak awareness of intellectual property protection, lack of intellectual property protection professional personnel, inadequate investment in R & D and low innovation level. These problems caused huge losses in practice to traditional Chinese medicine enterprises. After analyzing the status of intellectual property protection of traditional Chinese medicine enterprises, we put up with some concrete measures of intellectual property protection of traditional Chinese medicine considering the reality of these enterprises.

Experimental results showed Zn(Ⅱ)-ammonium thiocyanate-hexadocyltrimethylammonium bromide complex was floated in the presence of sodium chloride. There fore Zn(Ⅱ) could be completely separated from Fe(Ⅲ), Co(Ⅱ),Ni(Ⅱ), Mn(ⅡD, Al(Ⅲ) by floation. The method is non-toxic, simple, rapid and economical.

Objective To explore the effect of high-fat diet on IRS-1 and IRS-2 expressions of fatty liver in rat. Methods After the rats were fed a high-fat diet (n=7) and a standard chow(n=7) for 8 weeks, insulin sensitivity,lipid metabolism, TNF-α and hepatic mRNA and protein expressions of IRS-1 and IRS-2 were measured. Results Compared with the normal control, the high-fat diet group displayed the elevated levels of insulin resistance,FFA and TNF-α.Hepatic IRS-1 mRNA expression and IRS-1 protein content were reduced by 28% and 32%(P<0.01),respectively. Similarly, hepatic IRS-2 mRNA and IRS-2 protein content were also reduced by 30% and 27% (P<0.01), respectively. Conclusions High-fat diet results in a significant decrease in expressions of mRNA and protein of hepatic IRS-1 and IRS-2 in rats, which might be one of the molecular mechanisms of insulin resistance in liver steatosis induced by high-fat diet

AIM: To observe the effect of aminoguanidine (AG) on hemodynamics and lung capillary permeability in acute lung injury (ALI) in rabbits. METHODS: 24 rabbits were equally divided into four groups: saline group, endotoxin group, AG group and AG plus endotoxin group. In AG plus endotoxin group, endotoxin was injected to animals to make an ALI model, 25mg/kg AG was injected following that and let this sustain 3 hours. Meanwhile, mean arterial pressure (MAP), mean pulmonary arterial pressures (MPAP) and blood gas analyses were observed during this period. At the end of the experiment, broncho-alveolus lavage was performed, pathologic samples were treated routinely and lung wet weight/dry weight ratio was calculated. RESULTS: After endotoxin injection, MAP and arterial oxygen pressure (PaO 2) decreased, and MPAP increased significantly. The injection of AG had little effect on MAP, but AG could markedly decrease MPAP and increase PaO 2. Cell count in broncho-alveolus lavage fluid (BALF) was less in AG plus endotoxin group than in endotoxin group. Although AG did not affect total protein in BALF, low molecular weight proteins decreased in AG plus endotoxin group by the assay of electrophoresis. Tissue wet weight/dry weight ratio also decreased in this group. Pathologic study showed that there were fewer inflammatory cells and less lung edema in AG plus endotoxin group. CONCLUSION: AG could improve hemodynamics status and attenuate acute lung injury induced by endotoxin in rabbits. [

Objective To investigate mechanism and clinical effect of implantation of pacemaker with artial fibrillation(Af) preventive pacing algorithms (Vitatron 900E).Method 24 cases of patients with paroxysmal Af were observed in three phases (each phase two weeks):⑴Monitoring phase,in which onset mechanism of atrial arrtythmias was recorded, the device was programmed into DDD mode with 60 bpm;⑵Lower rate limit phase (LRL),DDDR mode with 85bpm LRL, and evaluating anti-Af effect by elevated rate;⑶Preventive pacing therapy phase,all preventive pacing therapies with programming to on or off, and this phase determined whether combined pacing therapies impacted on incidence of Af. Results 24 cases of patients were free of Af, in which 17 cases were done by using post-PAC-response or/and post-exercise-rate-control therapy only, and 7 cases of 17 casees were done by combining it with cordarone 0 1～0 2g/d also. The other 7 cases were done by DDDR 85 bpm only.Conclusions Af prevention pacing may be benefit for patients with paroxysmal Af,especially with complicated symptomatic bradycardia.

By collecting and studying Practical Acupuncture written by XU Yi-nian, Guangdong acupuncture master in the Republic of China, and using literature methodology, the life story of XU Yi-nian is textually researched and his acupuncture characteristics is analyzed. The results indicate that XU Yi-nian emphasizes on the utility of acupuncture manipulations and acupoint selection, the application of folk experiences in moxibustion and Sha disorders. He pays attention to the co-work of acupuncture and medicine and his work collects the therapeutic experiences of different schools and deserves to be further explored and validated.
