Objective:To analyse the degree of equality of New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme (NRCMS) in different economic regions. We provide a reference for equal development of the NRCMS and the reform of the political system and mechanism under the provincial-controlled county fiscal system. Methods:A typical province was chosen with provincial-controlled county fiscal system was fully implemented several years. We collected data on coverage, financing and compensation for the NRCMS from 2005 to 2011. We used the variable coefficient, uniformity coefficient, Theil Index for comprehensive evaluation. Results:Per capita financing has not reached the bottom line. From 2005 to 2011, inter-re-gional and intra-regional variation coefficient, Theil index of service coverage, financing level and hospital actual compen-sation has declined year by year. The degree of inequality in economically developed regions was greater than in less eco-nomically developed regions and economic medium region. Conclusion:The degree of equalization of the NRCMS in the province continuously improved. Innovation of provincial-controlled county fiscal system and mechanism provides a favora-ble environment and forming conditions for equalizing the development of the NRCMS. The paper suggested exploring and building fiscal classification step transfer payment institution and dynamic prediction model of the NRCMS, further optimi-zing financing mechanism, promoting the provincial management system of the NRCMS as soon as possible in order to pro-mote the equalization development.

Objective:To find out the key demand and connection point of health quality education for students of different stages by analysis of their health quality characteristics and the main contribution path, and then explore strategies to improve health quality. Methods:The stratified random cluster sampling method was carried out to select the sample population in Hangzhou. The variance analysis, curve fitting and multivariate linear regression analysis were used to analyze health quality characteristics and the main contribution path. Results:The health quality of pri-mary school students was best;the difference in quality between college students and junior high school students was not statistically significant ( P>0. 05 );and high school students had the worst health quality. The high school stage is the weakest link of health quality education. The order of the health education path and the means for improving the health quality of college, high school, and primary school students differ. With the improvement of students’ lev-el, the students that require physical quality promotion gradually decreases; the moral quality demand remains sta-ble;and the psychological quality and social adaptation ability present the tendency of a gradual increase. Conclu-sion:Student health quality shows a tendency to decreases with the rise of learning phase. The education departments should foster health consciousness and habits for students, form a healthy lifestyle behavior and ways of thinking for high school students, shape healthy personalities to improve health literacy and social adaptation abilities for college student, which is the key strategy for promoting the health quality of all-round development of the students and a-chieve the primary education goal of “health education”.

Background The pathogenesis of age-related cataract is associated with the apoptosis of lens epithelial cells (LECs) caused by oxidative stress.Previous studies showed that intracellular focal adhesion kinase (FAK) pathway can be activated by H2O2 in vitro,which induced apoptosis of cells.To investigate the effect of oxidative on FAK expression in LECs is one of important studies in the prevention of age-related cataract.Objective This study was to investigate the expression and function of FAK in human LECs treated by H2O2.Methods Human LECs strain (HLECs-B3) were cultured in vitro in the low glucose DMEM with 10% fetal bovine serum.Different concentrations (0,30,50,70,100,300,500,700,1000 μmol/L) of H2O2 were added into the culture medium for 24 hours.The survival rate of the cells was detected by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay.Cell morphology as well as the expression and distribution of FAK in the cells were observed by immunofluorescent staining under the laser confocal microscope.Apoptosis was observed by hoechst33258 staining,and Western blot assay was used to quantitatively detect the expression and phosphorylation of FAK.Results The survival rate of the cells was (1.00±0.03) %,(1.24±0.03)%,(1.36±0.24) %,(0.93±0.02)%,(1.75±0.19)%,(1.37±0.18) %,(0.64±0.01)%,(0.59±0.11)%,(0.14±0.05)% in 0,30,50,70,100,300,500,700,1000 μmol/L H2O2 groups,with a significant difference among them (F =95.30,P =0.00).The survival rates of the cells in the below 300 μmol/L H2O2 groups were significantly higher than those in the 0 μmol/L H2O2 group,and survival rates of the cells in the above 500 μmol/L H2O2 groups were significantly lower than those in the 0 μmol/L H2O2 group(all at P<0.05).After H2 O2 treatment for 24 hours,HLECs-B3 cells transformed from polygon shape to spindle shape and extended pseudopodiums,meanwhile the green fluorescence for FAK exhibited in the cytoplasm.Cell apoptosis was found in the 1000 μ mol/L H2O2 group.Western blot assay revealed that the expressing levels (grey scale) were significantly different among the various groups (F=28.08,P=0.00),and FAK expressing levels in the below 300 μmol/L H2O2 groups were significantly higher than those of the 0 μmol/L H2O2 group; while the expressing levels in the above 500 μmol/L H2O2 groups were lower than those of the control 0 μmol/L H202 group (all at P<0.05).After treated by different concentrations of H2O2,the phosphorylation level of intracellular FAK (p-FAK) was significantly higher in 3 hours group than that in 30 minutes group (all at P<0.05).Conclusions H2 O2 can affect the survival,proliferation and morphology of human LECs by activating the intracellular FAK pathway,indicating that FAK may play roles in the regulation process of cell biological behavior.

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of one stage hybrid operation for aortic arch replacement and explore the indication. Methods From July,2009 to March,2010, 22 consecutive patients received one stage hybrid operation in our hybrid suite for aortic dissection or aortic aneurysm involving aortic arch. Two operative methods are used. (1)Bypass from ascending aorta to brachiocephalic arteries using midstemotomy and normothermia with antegrade aortic arch endovascular stented graft implantation. (2) Ascending aorta replacement and/or aortic valve replacement and/or coronary artery bypass grafting using midstemotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass with antegrade aortic arch endovascular stented graft implantation. Results All patients were technically successful. Angiography during the operation showed 100% patency of all the bypass grafts and no obvious translocation or endoleak of the stents. One patient in the first group died on sixth day after operation due to distal dissection rupture. There was one case of mediastinal lymph effusion in the second group and one case of death due to renal failure and respiratory failure 12 days after operation in the second group. The ICU stay and hospital stay were obviously shorter in hybrid open chest group than that in traditional open chest operation group(P <0.05). The blood product consumption and expenditure were also obviously less in hybrid open chest group than that in traditional open chest operation group (P <0.05). All the patients were followed up with a mean period of (14.45 ±2.33) months (range: 12 -20 months). All other patients were recovered with normal social life. CT showed neither endoleak nor translocation of the stented grafts. Faulse lumen closure rate at stented-graft segment is 100%. There was no obvious change of distal part of the dissection three months after operation except some thrombosis formation in some of the false lumen. Conclusion One stage hybrid operation for aortic arch replacement is safe and effective in shortening the duration of the operation and reducing the surgical trauma and risk of interval between procedures, shortening the hospital stay and reducing the blood product consumption compared with conventional operation with satisfactory early results. The midterm and long term results are still needed to be followed up.

Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal disease, as it extends survival and increases quality of life in these patients. However, chronic allograft injury continues to be a major problem, and leads to eventual graft loss. Early detection of allograft injury is essential for guiding appropriate intervention to delay or prevent irreversible damage. Several advanced MRI techniques can offer some important information regarding functional changes such as perfusion, diffusion, structural complexity, as well as oxygenation and fibrosis. This review highlights the potential of multiparametric MRI for noninvasive and comprehensive assessment of renal allograft injury.

Crocetin, a naturally occurring carotenoid, possesses antioxidant and antiatherosclerotic properties, of which the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In the present study, we examined the effects of crocetin (0.1, 1, 10 μmol·L(-1)) on angiotensin II (Ang II, 0.1 μmol·L(-1)) induced expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and monocyte-endothelial cell adhesion. The effects of crocetin on the activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were also observed. The results demonstrated that crocetin notably suppressed Ang II induced NF-κB activation (P<0.01) and VCAM-1 expression (P<0.05, P<0.01) in HUVECs, accompanied by a markedly reduced monocyte-endothelial cell adhesion (P<0.05, P<0.01). In addition, preincubation with crocetin resulted in a significant enhancement of cellular antioxidant capacity (P<0.05, P<0.01), while Ang II induced intracellular ROS decreased markedly (P<0.05, P<0.01). These results indicated that crocetin was capable of suppressing Ang II induced VCAM-1 expression and monocyte-endothelial cell adhesion by suppression of NF-κB activation, which might be derived from the enhancement of antioxidant capacity and subsequent reduction of intracellular ROS.
