Objective: To study shame of college student through phenomenological method. Method: 147 college students (male 53, female 94, average age 20.2) were involved. Each subject was asked to describe his/her personal shame experience, which was rate on phenomenological dimensions. Experience of Shame Scales (ESS) was used either. Result: The finding from phenomenological rating was in accord with the theory of “self orientation". Students with stronger shame proneness showed tendency to attribute negative events to him/herself. Conclusion: Shame is an acutely painful experience that involves a marked self-focus (self oriented) emotion. Shame proneness tended to have stronger sense of worthlessness and powerlessness and have much more strategies of denying and escaping in hard situations.

Objective:To observe and assess the hemorheological efficacy of yixinshu capsules in the treatment of"deficiency of both vital energy and yin or blood stasis"chest-spleen-syndrome patients.Method:According to the stand- ard of the diagnosis of coronary heart diseases and deficiency of both vital energy and yin or blood stasis chest-bi-syndrome, 60 cases were collected from Jan.2006 to Feb.2007 in ward and clinic.Each case was treated with yixinshu capsule for four weeks and its hemorheological efficacy and routine blood change were observed and compared before and after the treat- ment.Result:The yixinshu capsules improved various hemorheological indexes more significantly after the treatment than before it (P0.05).Conclusion:Yixinshu capsules are an effective medicine for the chest-spleen-syndrome case,and recommendable for clinical treatment.

Objective To investigate the plasma visfatin levels and explore the relationship between visfatin and anthropometric parameters,glucose,lipid profile,insulin sensitivity index and insulin secretion index in the subjects with different glucose tolerances.Methods Fifty-three patients with newly diagonosed type 2 diabetes(T2DM),7 subjects with impaired glucose tolerance(IGT)and 35 healthy controls were enrolled.Visfatin levels were measured along with the BMI,blood pressure,lipids,glucose,insulin and HOMA-IR indexes.Results Plasma visfatin levels were elevated in patients with newly diagnosed T2DM compared with IGT group or controls.There was no significant difference in the visfatin levels between IGT group and healthy controls.Plasma visfatin level was positively correlated with glucose levels and HOMA-IR,and negatively correlated with insulin secretion index(HOMA-B).Multiple regression analysis showed that postprandial plasma glucose was independent related factor influencing plasma visfatin levels.In T2DM group,plasma visfatin concentration was positively correlated with HbA1c level.Conclusion The increased plasma visfatin concentration in newly diagnosed and untreated type 2 diabetes mellitus represents a compensatory mechanism aimed at ameliorating the functional consequences of insulin deficiency.

Objective To choose the best surgical procedure,the surgical results and clinical outcomes of inguinal hernia repair with either an open anterior or posterior approach,were studied.Methods The 366 cases of inguinal hernia patients according to surgical side approach in different ways,is divided into A,B groups,Among group A of 186 cases repaired with application of prolene hernia system (PHS) via anterior approach,while group B of 180 cases surgically treated with Kugel technique with a posterior approach,and surgical procedure,postoperative recovery and complications were compared between these two groups,respectively.Results No significant differences were found in operation time,hospital stay,incisional infection rate and the recurrence rate (P ＞ 0.05).However,compared with group,the group B patients had less pain of the wound,slight postoperative swelling response,less foreign body aesthesis and hydrocele(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Compared with the anterior approach surgery,the posterior approach (Kugel technique) has less traumatic,low complication rate and rapid recovery after operation.

BACKGROUND:Several studies have demonstrated that stem cells can differentiate into vascular endothelial cells, and then further differentiate and form blood capillary. Based on this principle, autologous bone marrow mesenchyrnal stem cell (BMSC) transplantation promotes angiogenesis to treat ischemia in lower limb.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the angiogenesis in rabbit ischemic limbs following autologous BMSC transplantation using high-frequency two-dimensional ultrasound detection in conjunction with Doppler color-flow imaging examination. DESIGN, TIME AND SEI-FING: A randomized, controlled, animal experiment was performed in the Third People's Hospital of Wuxi between March 2007 and April 2008.MATERIALS: Twenty-four New Zealand rabbits were randomized to a control group and a cell transplantation group, with 12 rabbits in each.METHODS: Ischemia in lower limbs was induced in all rabbits. One week following ischemia induction, the cell transplantation group was injected with 0.5 mL cell suspension, comprising 2×106 BrdU-labeled autologous BMSCs cultured in vitro, through multiple sites in the region of gastrocnemius muscle. Simultaneously, the control group received the same amount of physical saline in the same region.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The initial segment of rabbit femoral artery and superficial femoral artery was subjected to high-frequency two-dimensional ultrasound and Doppler color-flow imaging examinations to measure femoral artery vascular internal diameter, blood flow peak velocity, and blood flow acceleration time. Ischemic muscular tissue was taken for immunohistochemical staining to detect transplanted cell distribution and for pathological examination of angiogenesis. RESULTS: Two weeks following autologous BMSC transplantation, high-frequency ultrasound results revealed that femoral artery internal diameter and blood flow peak velocity were greater, but blood flow acceleration time was shorter, in the cell transplantation group than in the control group (P<0.01). Immunohistochemical staining results demonstrated the presence of BrdU-positive cells. Pathological sections displayed that vascular density was significantly higher in the cell transplantation group than ih the control group. CONCLUSION: Autologous BMSC transplantation is a promising, simple, and effective method of treating ischemia in lower limbs owing to its promotion of angiogenesis. Meanwhile, high-frequency ultrasound detection of femoral artery is an effective, practical method to evaluate the clinical outcomes of autologous BMSC transplantation.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the value of 24 h dynamic electrocardiogram (DCG) and treadmill exercise testing(TET) in diagnosing coronary heart disease(CHD),and analyze relevant index between coronary arteriography(CAG) and treadmill exercise testing.MethodsOne hundred and forty-nine borderline cases of coronary heart disease were enrolled.Every patient was examined by DCG,TET,and CAG,compared the diagnostic value of TET combined with DCG and TET or DCG alone,and record the increased heart rate during the first minute( △ HRl min) of TET and systolic blood pressure(SBP) recovery.The patients were divided into a CHD group and a non-CHD group according to the results of coronary angiography.ResultsThe sensitivity rate was 78.57％ and specific rate was 70.77％ by means of TET.The sensitivity rate was 61.90％ and specific rate was 66.15％ by means of DCG.The sensitivity rate was 95.23％ ,specific rate was 55.38％,positive predictive value was 73.39％ and negative predictive value was 90.00％ by parallel way of DCG and TET,its sensitivity rate (95.23％) and negative predictive value (90.00％ ) were more than those of DCG or TET alone.The sensitivity rate was 52.38％,specific rate was 95.38％,positive predictive value was 93.62％ and negative predictive value was 60.78％ by serial way of DCG and TET,its specific rate (95.38％) and positive predictive value (93.62％ ) were more than those of DCG or TET alone.The number of men in the CHD group was higher than the number of women.Ratio of systolic blood pressure recovery(rSBPR) in the CHD group was significantly higher than that in the non-CHD group ( P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion It can obviously enhance the sensitivity rate and specific rate if combined TET with DCG.Patients with CHD have a delayed decline in SBP during recovery which can be one of the indexes to estimate the extent of myocardial ischemia and coronary artery lesion.

Objective To retrospectively analyze management of chronic lateral ankle instability and evaluate its clinical results. Methods There were 74 patients including 43 males and 31 females at age range of 15-63 years (mean 39 years). All patients had at least half year of disease history, more than twice repeated strains and over six weeks of conservative management. Of all, 41 patients were trea-ted with surgical operations including modified Brostrom in 12 patients, Myerson in eight and Chrisman-Snook in 21. The aasoeiated pathological problems should be treated at the same time, ie, tenedesis for the peroneal tendon subluxations in six patients, Achilles tendon lengthening in nine, lateral shift of cal-caneal osteotomies in eight and clearance and holes-making for the osteochondral lesions in 13. Results Of all, functional instability was alleviated in 21 patients through conservative treatment before surgery. Of 53 patients with either functional or mechanical instability, 10 patients showed symptomatic relief, two refused surgical operation and the remained 41 patients were treated surgically. Thirty-nine patients trea-ted surgically and 28 treated conservatively were followed up for 6-91 months. The Roos Functional Out-come Score was used for validating the results. The average value of the ankle functional outcome was 86.24 and 97.34 respectively following operation and conservative management. Conclusions The full examination is needed to remove any possible pathological factors for the patients with chronic lateral ankle instability. The surgical operation can obtain satisfactory functional recovery of the ankle if the conserva-tive management is failed.

To obtain fusion protein of Mycobacterium bovis with high purity, the recombinant prokaryotic expression vector for Mb2277 gene was constructed and the immunogenicity of its products was initially investigated in the present study.A pair of primer was designed according the gene sequence Mb2277 from the genomic DNA of M.Bovis in GenBank. and was amplified by PCR using DNA of M.Bovis 93006 strain as template. The PCR product and pET-28a(+) was then digested by BamHⅠ and EcoR Ⅰdouble enzyme. To constructed a prokaryotic expression plasmid, the purified Mb2277 was cloned to pET28a(+). Then the recombinant plasmid was transformed into competent cell of E.coli BL21(DE3).The bacteria were induced by IPTG and its lysates were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western-blotting. In this way, the prokaryotic expression plasmid for M. bovis Mb 2277 protin was obtained, and a expression band with molecular of 25 ku could be found in SDS-PAGE analysis. As demonstrated by Western blotting this expression product showed excellent reactivity with rabbit immune sera against M. bovis.
