This paper describes the implementation background for the rural doctors’ contracted services in Jiangsu province, focusing on the main approaches and promoting measures. The main objective was to analyze the effects of the transform from the perspectives of implementing the basic public health services welfare, promoting the rural doctors’ incentives and incomes, establishing a balance between the supply and demand, establishing a hierar-chical clinic system in the rural areas, understanding the impacts of New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme, and so forth. Based on the analysis, three conclusions were drawn:(1) Rebuild the trust in the relationship between doctors and patients and improve the working environment for the rural doctors with contracted services as a starting point. (2) Organize the medical services supplies focusing on the patient requirements, thereby ensuring that the primary health care providers take the first diagnosis responsibility. This helps in establishing a reasonable medical order as well as improved capital efficiency. (3) Return to the origin of primary health care by mainly focusing on health man-agement, and improve the health condition for the country dwellers.

ObjectiveTo investigate the platelet inhibition ratio by thromboelastography (TEG) and its clinical impact in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods118 PCI patients were divided into ischemic events group (22 cases) and nonischemic events group (96 cases) according to their clinical follow-up of 6 months. Platelet inhibition ratio was measured by TEG. ResultsADP-induced platelet inhibition ratio of ischemic events group decreased significantly compared with nonischemic events group (P<0.01). And there were no significant differences in AA-induced platelet inhibition ratio between two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionThere may be some relationship between the ischemic events of PCI patients and their drug resistance to clopidogrel.

Objective To study the expression of Ca-A/K channel-related molecules glutamate receptor 2 and 1(GluR2/1) in hippocampus tissues of neonatal rats with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD). Methods A total of 60 7-day-old Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham operation group and HIBD group. Hippocampal tissues were obtained at 0 h, 1 h, 6 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after HIBD. The expression of GluR2, GluR1 and autophagy marker protein Beclin-1, LC3 were detected by Western blot assay. Results Edema and focal softening and necrosis were observed 6 h after HIBD in the brains of neonatal rats. Compared with Con group, at each time point, the expression levels of GluR2 were lower while the levels of GluR1, Beclin-1 and LC3 were higher significantly in HIBD group (P<0.05). The protein levels of LC3, Beclin-1, GluR1 and GluR2 in hippocampus tissues of HIBD group were significantly different among different time points after the estab-lishment of HIBD model (F=10.65~701.14, P<0.01). The protein level of GluR2 was decreased from 1 h to 24 h after HIBD and reached the lowest level at 24 h. The levels of GluR1, Beclin-1 and LC3 were increased at 6 h, plateaued at 24 h and remained there until 48 h. The levels of these proteins returned back to the initial level at 72 h. Conclusions Ca-A/K channel-related mol-ecules GluR2 and GluR1 play important roles in the autophagic cell death of hippocampus tissues in neonatal rats with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage.

OBJECTIVE To study the pharmacokinetics of heat shock protein 65-mucin 1 (HSP65-MUC1) recombinant fusion protein vaccine in Macaca mulatta monkeys and tumor-bearing mice. METHODS HSP65-MUC1 was labeled by radioactive isotope 125I. M. mulatta monkeys were randomly divided into sc and iv administration groups. Simultaneously, sc administration group was designed as a multiple dose group in which M. mulatta monkeys were sc given [ 125I] HSP65-MUC1 40 μg·g-1, once every 2 weeks for a total of 3 times. Size exclusion chromatography ( SEC) was used to determine concentrations of HSP65-MUC1 in serum samples. The tumor-bearing mice were randomly divided into 0.5, 1.5, 4, 8 and 24 h groups. Mice were sc given [125I] HSP65-MUC1 550 μg·kg-1, tissues were collected and tissue distribution of [125I] HSP65-MUC1 in tumor-bearing mice was studied using trichloroacetic acid (TCA) precipitation method. RESULTS The absolute bioavailability of [125I]HSP65-MUC1 was 38.33% after M. mulatta monkeys were sc given [125I]HSP65-MUC1. In multiple dose group, concentrations of [125I]HSP65-MUC1 after the third dose administration was compared to that of the first dose administration. The accumulation factor (AUC3/AUC1) was 1.17 ±0.25. Distribution of [ 125I]HSP65-MUC1 was significantly different compared with general polypeptide and protein drugs after sc in tumor-bearing mice. The concentration in lymph nodes was the highest. The concentration in other immune tissues, such as thymus and spleen, were not relatively high, but their declined tendency was slow after reaching the peak concentration (cmax ). However, the concentrations in the serum and some other tissues with a large blood volume, such as the heart, liver, and lung, were relatively low and declined quickly after reaching cmax. Its level in the tumor was not very high. [125 I] HSP65-MUC1 was excreted mainly by the kidneys. CONCLUSION The bioavailability of [125I]HSP65-MUC1 is 38.33% after sc administration in M. mulatta. After multiple-dose administration, the vaccine does not accumulate in the body, whose concentration is the highest in lymph nodes after [1251] HSP65-MUC1 was sc given in tumor-bearing mice, but is not very high in tumor. Besides, the vaccine declined tendency is slow after reaching cmax in immune tissues such as thymus and spleen compared with other tissues with a large blood volume.
