An introduction to the contemporary studies on the norms of medical service items pricing in China, and the regulatory role to be played by the Norms of Medical Service Items Pricing in China in the health reform. The paper comes up with the following recommendations for improving the existing pricing system of medical services as follows: 1) "Item-based pricing" is the basis for other medical payments; 2) Training of the trainers in the provinces to ensure correct implementation of the Norms; 3) Establishment of a catalogue for special medical consumables to enhance consumables management; 4) Establishment of a nationwide indexing system for medical service items pricing; 5) In-depth study on the medical payment models satisfying China's specifics; 6) Establishment of clinical treatment norms for individual disciplines; 7) Establishment of a coding system compliant with international standards.

Objective To investigate the relationship between Methotrexate (MTX) and its cognitive dysfunction,and to explore the possible mechanism of neurotoxicity induced by MTX.Methods Thirty healthy male SD rats weighting 180-220 g were divided into 3 groups using random number table:control group,60 mg/kg MTX (MTX60) group and 100 mg/kg MTX (MTXt00) group,with 10 rats in each group.The rats in MTX60 group,MTX100 group received 60 mg/kg MTX and 100 mg/kg MTX,respectively.The rats in control group accepted the same volume of 9 g/L saline injection as MTX group.Spatial memory of rats was evaluated by using Morris water maze test at different time points after pretreatment with MTX.After the Morris water maze test,the hippocampus were harvested and the expressions of C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP),cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase 12(caspase-12) and cleave cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase 3 (cleaved caspase-3) were detected by using Western blot.Meanwhile,cell apoptosis and pathological change of hippocampal neurons were detected by terminal dexynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) assay and HE staining respectively.Results In the Morris water maze test,the time in platform quadrant of rats in MTX60 group and MTX100 group was shorter than that of rats in control group during probe training [(27.30 ±3.98) s and (21.63 ±4.22) s vs (33.30 ±6.31) s,F =13.94,P ＜0.05],and the time in target quadrant of MTX100 group was shorter than that of MTX60 group (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with the control group,there were degenerated neurons in hippocampus cornu ammonis 1 (CA1) area in MTX60 group and MTX100 group.The number of TUNEL-positive cells of the hippocampus CA1 area increased significantly in MTX60 group and MTX100 group rats [(4.72 ±0.12)％ and (9.12±0.12)％ vs (1.11 ±0.49)％,F=95.272,P ＜0.05],and the TUNEL-positive cells of rats in MTX100 group were more than those of MTX60 group (P ＜ 0.05).The expressions of CHOP,caspase-12 and cleaved caspase-3 also increased compared with the control group (CHOP:2.98 ±0.31 and 4.15 ±0.61 vs 0.38 ±0.12,F =232.74,P ＜ 0.05;caspase-12:0.33 ±0.04 and 0.43 ±0.06 vs 0.14 ±0.02,F =120.70,P ＜ 0.05;cleaved caspase-3:0.35 ± 0.04 and 0.44 ± 0.06 vs 0.05 ± 0.03,F =198.64,P ＜ 0.05),and the protein expression levels of rats in MTX100 group were higher than MTX60 group (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions MTX can induce cognitive impairment in rats,and endoplasmic reticulum stress mediated hippocampal neurons apoptosis may play an important role in the mechanism of MTX-induced cognitive impairment in rats.

With the development of tissue engineering, a variety of forms of silk fibroin (SF) scaffolds has been applied to research of constructing variety of organization based on cells, which has become scientific focus in recent years. In this paper we introduced the source and structure of SF and the fabrication method of the scaffold, and also address the SF application progress in several relevant fields of tissue engineering, such as bone, cartilage, skin, blood vessel and nerves. Finally, we discuss the future leading prospect of the SF in order to provide reference for subsequent research.

The changes in shape, structure and function of red blood cells (RBC) after cold storage were observed by using slow cold storage technique. Before and after cold storage, RBC mean corpuscular volume (MCV), RBC fragility (RF), whole blood viscosity (WBV), RBC deformity (RBCD), LFU, SatO2, hematocrit (HCT), RBC recovery rate (RBCRR) and RBC immune function were measured. The result showed that after resuscitation, RBC had vital resistance to hypotonic solution. There was no significant difference in MCV, RBCD and LFU (P>0.05). HCT and WBV were decreased and RBCRR reached 84.1 %(all P<0.01). SatO2 was increased from 30.5 % to 98.2 %. RBC immune function showed no significant difference (P>0.05). It was suggested that quality of RBC didn't change after cold storage and RBC could be cryopreserved for a long time.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the meta-analysis effect of pharmaceutical care(PC)program in asthma patients in community pharmacies.METHODS:The author searched 5 electronic databases(China Journal Net,Academic Search Premier(ASP),Blackwell,Elsevier,John Wiley)from 1999 to Mar 2006.And then the randomized controlled trials by the intervention measures of the medicine consultation and health education were made,Moreover,the literatures were selected by 2 valuators.A meta-analysis was conducted by means of Review Manager 4.2 software.RESULTS:We included 4 randomized controlled trials,1 298 asthma patients,homogeneityte test result X2=1.28(P=0.73).Geostatistical analysis is made by fixed effect model.As compared with the control group,the PC program increased patients'PEFRs in PC group significantly(the combined SMD=0.19,95%confidence interval:0.08～0.30(P=0.0 006).CONCLUSION:PC program in community pharmacies is an effective option in asthma prevention and treatment.The pharmaceutical care program in asthma patients in community pharmacies is effective management model of disease.

With the publish of National Medical Service Pricing Item Regulation(2012 edition), a new round of medical service items matching and pricing work across the country. Under the guidance of new pricing elements and pricing policy, to actively discuss on designing more scientific pricing method. Based on the field survey and qualitative interviews, several main pricing methods currently used in China were summarized to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of these methods.

AIM: To provide scientific references for leeches by means of the antithrombin,antitrypsin and antichymotrypsin activities of the four kinds of leeches. METHODS: Using antithrombin,antitrypsin and antichymotrypsin activity analysis methods,the four kinds of leeches,they were,Whitmania pigra Whitman,Hirudo nipponia Whitman,Hirudo medicinalis Linnaeus,Hirudinaria manillensis Lesson,were detected. RESULTS: The blood-sucking leeches except whitnania pigra whitman had high antithrombin activity,and these four kinds of leeches were the same antitrypsin and antichymotrypsin activities. CONCLUSION: These three biological activity methods could be considered as reliable indexes in assessing the qualitity of leeches.
