OBJECTIVE: According to the holism in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory, this manuscript explores the relativity of pathogenesis among hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipemia.DATA SOURCES: We applied computer to search articles in English on pathogenesis ofhypertension, diabetes and hyperlipemia in Medline between January 1985 and December 2004 by words "hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipemia, pathogenesis" .Besides, we also used computer to search articles in Chinese on pathogenesis of hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipemia in Chinese magazine full text database between January 1990 and December 2004 by words "hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipemia, pathogenesis".STUDY SELECTION: Primarily, articles on pathogenesis of hypertension,diabetes and hyperlipemia were selected in TCM and modern medicine respectively. Accepted standard were: ① Random control clinic test with methods of single blind, double blind or no blind; ② Nonrandom control test;③ Fore-and-aft control test; ④ Chapter in monograph. Eliminated standard:repeated research.DATA EXTRACTION: Totally 28 articles on pathogenesis of hypertension,diabetes and hyperlipemia were found in TCM and modern medicine, however, 12 articles were selected according to accepted standard, and 16 articles were eliminated due to repeated content.DATA SYSTHESIS: Totally 12 selected articles were analyzed on pathogeneses of hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipemia in TCM and modern medicine, and hinted internal affiliation of these three diseases from view of molecular biology.CONCLUSION: These three diseases can be regarded as a whole entity for study. High blood pressure, high blood sugar and high lipemia could be treated as different forms of the entity or in different developing courses of the whole. In a certain course it might present as one of the forms specifically. It might manifest high blood pressure mainly in clinic, or high blood sugar, or high lipemia,also several forms at the same time. It will be beneficial to take the holism and visceral theory in TCM for reference in research of modern medicine.

Intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) can improve the danger of insulin resistance syndrome. It was reported that regulatory factors of βcells development and enzymes of regulating metabolism of glucose, fat, insulin signal transduction and effecter molecule were expressed at a low level in the IUGR. As a result, the number of β cells, proliferation, insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity was reduced, apoptosis was increased, and glucose intake in peripheral tissue declined. All these factors contribute to the insulin resistance syndrome.

BACKGROUND: Dance-sport is a newly emerging sport item, integrating sport with music and dance. It not only develops physical diathesis and sport skills, but also actively affects psychological health of university students.OBJECTIVE: To analyze and observe the changes in psychological health, physical diathesis and musical cultivation after dance-sport training for university students.DESIGN: Cross-section investigation was designed, in which, the students in elective class of dance-sport were taken as objects.SETTING: Department of Physical Education of China University of Mining and Technology.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 116 students were collected from 2001' elective class of dance-sport in China University of Mining and Technology from September 2001 to January 2003. All of receptors selected dance-sport at the first time. Of 120 copies of Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90) were provided and 116 of those were returned, in which, 58 students were either male or female, aged averagely 19.7 years.METHODS: Questionnaire: SCL-90 was used to evaluate 9 main outcome measures, named psychological health, somatization, obsessive compulsive (o-c) symptoms, personal relations, depression, anxiety, hostility, phobism,paranoid ideation and metal disorder; in which, 5 grades were adopted,named 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 grades, to represent no, mild, moderate, severe and extremely severe impacts successively. Test: according to stipulated music rate, cardiac rate and music were tested so as to observe the changes in physical diathesis and capacity of musical rhythm understanding. Simultaneously, literatures were looked up on education, psychology and physical education to provide theoretic evidence for this paper. The questionnaire was provided before and after the semester respectively and returned for music test. Test on cardiac rate was performed at the end of semester.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Comparison among the results of two SCL-90 evaluations, positive number and total average result in receptors and national norm. Result of cardiac rate and music test in receptors.RESULTS: Totally 120 copies were provided, 116 of them were returned and the rate of return was 97%. ① Result of SCL-90: At the end of semester, the results of depression, hostility and positive number of 9 items in the checklist were lower remarkably than those before the semester (P ＜ 0.01-0.05); the results of somatization, interpersonal sensitivity, depression, hostility and total average result were lower remarkably than national norm (P ＜ 0.01-0.05). ② Dance-sport and physical diathesis:Among various dances in sport, the highest, lowest and average cardiac rates were (115-194) times/minute, (114-140) times/minute and (138-169) times/minute successively. The amount of exercise is over moderate level and it benefits cardiac vascular system, functions of heart and lung,endurance, etc. Long-term exercise will be good for the physique. ③ Impacts of dance-sport on music cultivation: Before the class, 93.1% of students did not understand musical rhythm or they understood the rhythm,but it is hard for their steps followed the rhythm. After the course of dance-sport, only 2.5% of students did not understand and follow musical rhythm.CONCLUSION: Dance-sports improves not only psychological health and physical diathesis of students, but also their musical and art cultivation.It is mass sports activity, benefiting the health both physically and mentally.

Objective To explore which operation and the accuracy of the detection method is better by exploring the correlation among three bilirubin detection methods.Methods 50 hospitalized neonates within 7 days after birth with visual jaundice were randomly selected.The total serum bilirubin level was measured by the routine laboratory method.At the same time,the serum bilirubin level was measured by bilirubin analyzer for capillary blood and transcutaneous bilirubin(TcB) measurement,then calculated the linear correlation coefficient of TcB level and TSB level,capillary blood bilirubin level and TSB level respectively to analyze their statistical significance,and get the linear regression model at last.Results Close correlation is existed between the capillary blood bilirubin measurement and the routine laboratory method,also the transcutaneous bilirubin measurement and the routine laboratory method.Moreover,the former is better than the later.Conclusion Capillary blood bilirubin is reliable in measuring serum bilirubin level of newborns.

Objective To evaluate regional myocardial mechanical dysfunction of left ventricle in patients with ECG T-wave inversion using echocardiographic velocity vector imaging.Methods One hundred nineteen female patients with T wave inversion divided into three groups:V1-6 T-wave inversion group(52 patients),V1-4 Twave inversion group (33 patients),V3-6 T-wave inversion group (34patients),while selected 44 healthy women in control group.Peak systolic radial strain (SRSmax) and strain rate (SRSrmax),peak systolic circumferential strain (SCSrmax) and strain rate (SCSmax) were derived and compared from three short-axis views of left ventricle at 18 wall segments using a dedicated Syngo VVI software and workstation,and the depth of T-wave inversion in different precordial lead was measured and correlated with mechanics parameters between four groups.Results In V1-6 T-wave inversion group,each mechanical variable of anteroseptal,anterior,anterolateral and inferolateral walls decreased (P ＜0.05-0.01).In V1-4 T-wave inversion group each mechanical variable of anteroseptal,anterior and inferoseptal walls declined (P ＜0.05-0.01).In V3-6 T-wave inversion group four mechanical variables(i.e.,SRSmax SRSr SCSmax and SCSrmax) of anteroseptal,anterior,anterolateral and inferolateral walls reduced,mainly at basal segment (P ＜0.05-0.01).The ventricular segments of reduced SRSmax,SRSrmax and SCSrmax in V1-6 T-wave inversion group and of SRSrmax in V3-6 T-wave inversion group were more than those in V1-4 T-wave inversion group (P ＜0.05-0.01).In V1-6 T-wave inversion group,negative correlationships between radial mechanical variables of anteroseptal wall and the depths of V4 and V5 lead T-wave inversion were found (r =-0.29--0.37,P ＜0.05-0.01).Otherwise a positive correlationships between SCSmax of anterolateral wall and the depth of V3 lead T-wave inversion were established (rs =0.44,P =0.01) in V1-4 T-wave inversion group.Conclusions There is a regional myocardial dysfunction of LV in female patients with ECG T-wave inversion.The extent of electrical repolarization abnormality is correlated to the severity of regional myocardial dysfunction.

Splice variants are transcripts that exhibit various functions or activities and are obtained from alternative splicing of precursor mRNA. An increasing number of tumor-specific splice variants are being discovered and their roles in cancer development and progression are being investigated. In this study, the expression patterns and activities of tumor-specific splice variants were charac-terized. The results suggest that a variant-specific gene therapy that targets cancer cells would be more specific and would have minimal effect on healthy tissues. Using antisense oligonucleotides, mRNA that contributed to cancer cell survival and altered splicing patterns was downregulated in a clinical trial. The results provide a new appreciation for the gene therapy of cancer. Identification of novel tu-mor-specific splice variants and constant improvement of therapeutic strategies by modifying splicing patterns can lead to the develop-ment of more effective and safer cancer therapies.
