To investigate and summarize the characteristics of mass media reports about medical disputs, and to analyze how the reports impact public perception and behaviors, and finally to propose some suggestions. A total of 385 people were conveniently randomizedly sampled to the survey, including 280 citizens in Beijing and 105 netizens. The results showed reporting modes by the mass media were diversified, and their truthfulness was various. Among them, 63.56% people thought the mass media reporting “medical disputs” almost supported the truthfulness, while 23.29% thought the mass media lacked truthfulness, because the format of the mass media reporting was fast speed rather than good quality. A total of 98.63% people thought the mass media has an impact on the public perception and behaviours, where 69.36% supported their positive aspects, while 30.64% showed negative. Based on the views above, it’s found that the mass media lacked right information of medicine. Therefore, in order to make a harmonious condition of doctor-patient relationship, it’s necessary to truly report the news with a scientific view, to build a platform for the information exchanges between hospitals and media, and to strengthen the social supervision and management.

Conclusion:PA is one of the main pathogenic bacteria for nosocomial infection. It is necessary to strengthen the drug resistance test and standardize the application of antibiotics in order to provide the reference for clinical rational use of antibacterial drugs.

Objective: To predict the active ingredients and their potential targets of Huangqi Jianzhong Decoction (HQJZ) against chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) based on the “single drug-active ingredient-action targets” network. Methods: Using pharmacokinetic parameters [oral bioavailability (OB) and drug likeness (DL)] of traditional Chinese medicine system pharmacology platform (TCMSP) to screen the active ingredient of HQJZ, and then integrating target prediction database (STPD), human gene database (Genecard), and Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) to predict and screen its target genes for the treatment of CAG, and using Cytoscape software to construct the network of “single drug-active ingredient-action targets”. The molecular docking of those main active ingredient and action targets were confirmed through Systems Dock Web Site. String database and Cytoscape software were used to draw the protein interaction network, and DisGeNET database was used to assign their target type. Finally the biological function and metabolic pathway of these targets were analyzed by DAVID database. Results: A total of 118 potential active ingredients were screened based on their OB and DL parameters, and 16 CAG-related genes were involved, 52 active ingredients were related to disease target, which mainly involved in the regulations of cancer pathway, focal adhesion, arginine and proline metabolism, vascular endothelial growth factor signal transduction and neurotrophic factor signaling pathway in the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis. Conclusion: The therapeutic mechanism of HQJZ reflects the characteristics of multi-component, multi-target, and multi-pathway of traditional Chinese medicines, which provides a scientific basis for further explaining the action mechanism and the material basis of HQJZ against CAG.

Dietary restriction (DR) can delay senescence,prolong lifespan of mammals and improve their learning-memory activity.The purpose of the study was to explore the effects of DR on hypolipidemic action and liver function of mice with hyperlipidemia.To investigate these effects,hyperlipidemia mouse models were established with high-fat diet (HFD) (34％ of energy),then randomly divided into HFD group,DR30％ group and DR50％ group.Mice in DR30％ and DR50％ group were respectively supplied with HFD as much as about 70％ and 50％ of the consumption of HFD in the mice of HFD group.Rats in control group were fed routinely.After DR for 5 weeks,the average body weight,liver weight,liver index,serum lipids and glucose levels in both DR groups decreased significantly as compared with the HFD group (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),so did alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase (AST),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels and the ratio of LDL-C/HDL-C in the DR50％ group (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Histopathology examination of liver tissues further proved ameliorative effect of DR on liver function.Western blotting showed that DR significantly increased the expression of silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1) in liver and adipose,while notably decreased the expression of peroxisome proliferators-activated receptors-gamma (PPARγ) in adipose (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).The increase of SIRT1 and decrease of PPARγ may be a mechanism by which DR reduces blood lipids and ameliorates liver function.

OBJECTIVETo study the therapeutic effects of posterolateral depression fractures of the tibial plateau through a modified anterolateral approach.

METHODSFrom February 2011 to January 2012,13 patients with posterolateral depression fractures of the tibial plateau were treated through a modified anterolateral approach. There were 8 males and 5 females, ranging in age from 28 to 59 years old (49.2 years old on average). Data from patients were collected retrospectively as follows: X-ray, time of fracture healing and the complications of fracture healing. The patients were evaluated both clinically and radiologically according to the Rasmussen score system.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 6 to 18 months (mean 13.7 months). All the patients got bony union. The average radiographic bony union time was 15.1 weeks (ranged, 11 to 17 weeks). No case of secondary articular depression was found. No complications such as malunion or joint stiffness were found. But 1 patient had superficial infection and 1 patient had common peroneal nerve injury. According to the Rasmussen score system,the mean radiological score was 16.50 ± 0.67 (ranged, 13 to 18), and the mean functional score was 25.20 ± 2.21 (ranged, 13 to 30). The mean range of knee motion was (125.3 ± 9.3)° (ranged, 0° to 135°).

CONCLUSIONTreatment of depression fractures of posterolateral tibial plateau with a modified anterolateral approach is a safe method with effective exposure, due to its stable fixation and relatively good outcome with minimal soft-tissue complications. It is regarded as an ideal procedure for depression fractures of posterolateral tibial plateau.
