Along with several decades development,the urinary and male genital system neoplasm has gained distinguished research achievements in China.The research output is being historically high.However,our ability of treatment and diagnosis cannot meet people's requirement of health due to the serious prevalent situation.It is necessary for China to take actions to keep up with the advanced world level.

OBJECTIVE:To promote the development of Contract Research Organization (CRO) in China. METHODS: The definition and function of CRO and the reason why CRO grows so quickly in recent years were introduced. Then a systematic analysis on the development and trend of CRO in China and abroad were conducted, and the problems in the developments were pointed out. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS: Based on the condition in China, the following strategies for the development of CRO in China were put forward: firstly, the government should tighten control on the standardization and monitoring of domestic CRO; secondly, the pharmaceutical companies in China should get a better understanding and make full use of CRO; thirdly, the cooperation between CRO in China and CRO abroad should be emphasized; fourthly, it is advisable to cultivate more talents on outsourcing.

Objective To study the efficacy of thyroidal arterial embolization in treating hyperthyroidism by using different embolizing materials and the relationship between recurrence rate and the numbers of embolized arteries. Methods 56 cases with hyperthyroidism were divided into group A (25 cases) and group B (31 cases). Patients of group A had their thyroidal arteries embolized with gelfoam particles and stainless coils after arterial infusion of a total dosage of 24 mg of blemycin. Patients of group B had their thyroidal arteries occluded with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) particles. The effectiveness and general complications of arterial embolization for these two groups were compared and the relationship between recurrence rate of hyperthyroidism after treatment and numbers of embolized thyroidal arteries was studied. Results It showed effectiveness in all patients within 2 3 months. The follow up records showed, the recurrence rate of hyperthyroidism was 28% and 16.1% for group A and group B respectively but without statistical difference. The recurrence rates were 46.7% for those patients with 2 thyroid arteries embolized and 12.2% for those with 3 4 arteries embolized, showing significant difference ( ? 2=7.751, P

Objective To analyze the laboratory detection findings in infectious mononucleosis(IM) and mucocutaneous lymphnode syndrome(MCLS)and find the main points of the differential diagnosis and direct the treatment. Methods Five hundreds and twenty-five children were in-patient department over these past 10 years .These patients were divided into 2 groups,IM group (225 patients) and MCLS group(280 patients). EB-virus antibody,Paul-Bunnell test,the circumference blood numeration ,classification of leucocytes,the numeration of atypical lymphocytes were detected and compared,as well as blood platelet of these patients.Results The positive rate of EB-virus antibody in IM and MCLS were high, and had no discrepancy. However, the positive rate of Paul-Bunnell test and numeration of atypical lymphocyte in IM group were significantly higher than those in MCLS group. The total circumference blood leucocyte numeration of the groups increased,but the numeration neutrophil increased significantly in MCLS group, the rising numeration of lymphocyte in IM; the blood platelet numeration was elevated significantly in MCLS group and continued when the total circumference blood leucocyte numeration tended normally.Conclusions The causes of IM and MCLS are related to the infection of EB-virus. The laboratory characteristics of IM and MCLS are different,understanding the main points of the differential diagnosis contributes to the clear diagnose and early treatment.

0.05).DBP and DEHP obviously induced a decrease in organ body weight ratios of testis and epididymis and an increase in organ body weights ratios of liver.Obvious decrease in the sperm counts,spermatozoon survival rate and significant increase in the rate of the sperm deformation were observed.There was synergism between DBP and DEHP on the testis,epididymis and liver organ body weight ratio,as well as sperm counts,sperm survival and deformation rates.Pathological examination showed the seminiferous tubules were irregular shape,degenerative atrophy and interstitial substance broadening,and the seminiferous epithelium were degeneration.Epididymis epithelium was damaged and few of mature sperm was seen.Conclusion DBP combined with DEHP can cause obvious toxic effects on reproductive function in male rats.DBP and DEHP mixture can strongly affect the sperm quantity and quality.Also,some toxic effects to epididymis are observed.

Objective To study the combined toxic effects of di-n-butyl phthalate(DBP)and di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate(DEHP)on sex hormone and lipid peroxidation in male rats.Methods According to 2?2 factorial analysis,thirty-two healthy and clean adult male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups,including a control group(given coin oil) and three experimental groups:DBP(1/20 LD50,1.0 g/kg,dissolved in coin oil),DEHP(1/20 LD50,1.7 g/kg,dissolved in coin oil) and DBP+DEHP(1.0 g/kg + 1.7 g/kg,dissolved in coin oil),8 rats in each group,through gavage,once a day,for 8 consecutive weeks.The spectrophotometric method was used to measure the activity of lipid peroxidation SOD,GSH and GSH-Px level in testis homogenate.The activities of ACP,AKP and ?-GT were assessed in testis homogenate.Radioimmunoassay was used to determine the testosterone,LH and FSH levels in the serum.Results There was synergism between DBP and DEHP on the SOD activity in testicle and testosterone level in serum,and there was antagonism between DBP and DEHP on the ?-GT and ACP activity in testicle,as well as the FSH level in serum.Conclusion DBP combined with DEHP can cause obvious toxic effects on reproductive function in male rats.The change of testosterone biosynthetic enzymes and the levels of T in serum and disordered physiologic balances of hypothalamic-pituitarytestis axis may be key factors contributing to the decrease of testosterone,then the decrease of reproductive function in male rats.

Part-time practice of medical practitioners(PPMP)is one of the important issues involved in reformation of health care system in China.On the basis of literatures review,some aspects such as concept,reason,advantage and disadvantage of PPMP are systemically analyzed in order to provide some suggestions for regular management of PPMP in the reformation of health care system.

Thyroid diseases are often accompanied with dyslipidemia.In me past,low level of myroid hormone(TH) was considered a main factor in causing elevated level of blood cholesterol in hypothyroid patients.However,some clinical features can not be explained by this traditional theory. For example,in subclinical hypothyroid cases,both levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and serum total cholesterol (TC) increase,while TH level remains normal.From this phenomenon,we speculate that in case with hypothyroidism,not only there is a relationship between serum TC and TH levels,but also serum TC level change is related to TSH in some way,which has not been noticed.The purpose of this paper is to review the new and most advanced progress in the research of TSH and cholesterol.

Objective To analyze the impact factors and their importance on academic reputation of medical research institutions in China.Methods Seventy medical researchers and 70 medical graduate students were selected by convenience sampling method.Brainstorming and expert consultation were applied to determine the 6 factors affecting the academic reputation of medical research institutions in China.A Face-to-face or e-mail interview was conducted using a designed questionnaire.Six affecting factors were nominated analyzed.Chi-square test was used to cross exam nominated rate and affecting factors;Bonferroni method was also applied to make paired comparisons.Results There is significant difference in nomination rates among 6 impact factors (P ＜ 0.001).Pairwise comparison showed that information obtained by academic exchange (70.49 ％) and the scientific understanding generated from research practice (67.21％) are top 2 impact factors to the medical research institutions;followed by all kinds of ranking list (44.26％),and the celebrity effect (42.62％).Conclusions Scientific communication and research practice are two most important factors affecting the academic reputation of medical research institutions in China.
