Comrade LU Zhi-jun, a famous surgeon and acupuncture expert, was a leading cadre in health field with outstanding achievements, and a leader of western medicine doctors learning traditional Chinese medicine in the Chinese Communist Party, and also he was a main establisher of The China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences and a founder of TCM scientific researches and integrated Chinese and western medicine in new China. The present paper reviews the course of LU Zhi-jun in learning and applying acupuncture and moxibustion therapy and a part of works carried out in faithfully implementing our party's policies for uniting Chinese and Western medicine, and in development of TCM including acupuncture and moxibustion in past tens years.

The contents of the individual fractions of glucose oligosaccharides were determined simultaneously by means of reversed-phase HPLC. The sample was dissolved in water and filtered and the filtrate was used directly for the analysis. The sugar was separated on a column of u-Bondapak C18 using water as the mobile phase and determined refractometrically.The method was applicable to the analysis of glucose oligosaccharides from monomeric glucose through polymeric maltooctose. Quantitative results were obtained for glucose, maltose, maltotriose, maltotetrose, maltopentose and maltohexose in the samples prepared in our laboratory. Recovery tests revealed this method reliable.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a group of intestinal chronic non-specific inflammatory disease with unknown etiology, and includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn''s disease (CD).Studies have indicated that environmental factor, genetic factor, disorder of immunity are associated with the pathogenesis of IBD.More and more basic and clinical studies focus on treatment with helminths in IBD.The accumulated evidences have shown that helminths infection has beneficial effects on the alleviation of IBD and is relatively safe.This article reviewed the advances in study on helminths in the treatment of IBD.

The Hippocratic oath commands doctors to be the patients supreme advocate. Coupling this command with a well trained physician is the sine qua non of orthopaedic risk management. A favorable doctor and patient relationship is also essential. The occurrence of a malpractice lawsuit is more often the result of the failure to practice the art of medicine by the orthopaedist rather than a failure to apply the science of orthopaedics. The ER (emergency room) is a dangerous area. The risk of litigation in the emergency room is not directly proportional to the severity of injury. In fact, the risk of initiation of legal action is greater in cases of relatively modest disability.

This paper mainly discusses how physician - patient disputes are included within scope of the media and become its"focus"of concern.It has revealed in my research that the dual interests of the media,the interests driving of the journalists,the strength of TV (or video) and the audiences are the inherent dynamisms which ehance the media let physician - patient disputes included in its vision.In other words,the physician - patient disputes become the"hot spot"of media attention with the help of the gatekeepers and the audiences.

Objective To investigate the correlation of subtypes of the lymphocytes with metabolic syndrome in the aged.Methods 955 aged male and 150 aged female were recruited to a cross-sectional case-control study.CD3+,CD4,CD8+,CD19+,NK cell was measured with flow cytometry.ResultsCD3+,CD19+,NK cells showed no difference in cases and in controls.CD4+/CD8+ ratio declined in subjects with metabolic syndrome,and the ratio declined further with the more criteria.The analysis of multiple analysis regression showed that metabolic syndrome depressed CD4+/CD8+ ratio in the aged.Conclusion Metabolic syndrome was correlated with the disorder of immunity.

Objective To investigate the expression of HSP70 mRNA or MDR1 mRNA by quercetin in leukemia.Methods Methyl thiazoly tetrazolium(MTT) asssy was used to detect the growth suppression of Quercetin on K562 cells.The expression of HSP70 mRNA and MDR1 mRNA were detected in ADM plus Quercetin,Quercetin plus ADM group.The 2 of them were detected in K562/ADM cells in Quercetin plus ADM group.Results 1.Quercetin could suppress the growth of K562 cells.2.The expression of HSP70 mRNA and MDR1 mRNA detected by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) decreased in K562 and K562/ADM cells in Quercetin plus ADM group compared with ADM group and control(P

Objective To analyze the immediate and following up result of 122 patients with acute myocardlal infarction(AMI)which underwent emergency percutaneous coronary interventlon(PCI).Methods 122 cases of AMI patients underwent the emergency PCI by transfemoral artery approach during June 1998 to December 2005.119 casea performed primary PCI,3 performed rescue PCI.Results The successful rate of vessel visualization and operation were 95.1%.93.4%.respectively.5 eases were with the help of intra-aortic balloon pumping.Subacute instent thrombosis occurred in 2 patients.In-hopital mortality was 4.1% (5/122).The left ventricular ejection fraction in echocardiography one after week was(0.55±0.16).Average hospital day is(9.5±5.8)(1～36).6-month mortality was 5.7%(7/122).Conclusion Primary PCI expanded the indication for the treatment of STEMI patients wlth establishment of patent infarct related artery and normal blood flow,increased tlle survival of high-risk patients,and shortened the hospitalization.Rescue PCI was an effective measure for the patients failing to intravenous thrombolysis.

Objective To explore the prospects for applying a brain-computer interface system in the reha-bilitation of dyskinesia by testing the brain-electricity signals of spinal cord injury patients and stroke patients during motor imagery. Methods The brain-electricity signals of 5 healthy people, 4 spinal cord injury patients and 2 stroke patients were tested during motor imagery, and the results were analyzed with a computer. Results All of the 5 healthy people showed event-related synchronization and desynchronization (ERS/ERD) in the α and β bands in the motor related cortex. Three of the 4 spinal cord injury patents showed similar characteristics, and 1 showed ob-vious and stable characteristics, but the 2 stroke patients did not show meaningful characteristics. Conclusions Spinal cord injury patients have brain-electrlcity characteristics similar to those of healthy people when they are expe-riencing motor imagery, whilst in the affected hemisphere of stroke patients the brain-electricity characteristics are not similar to those of healthy people.
