Objective] Metabolomics is a genomics research methods, has good prospects in the study of mechanisms of acupuncture. In this paper, the progress of the research on the mechanism of the action of metabolism in the mechanism of acupuncture and moxibustion were reviewed. [Methods] Retrieve acupuncture mechanism studies,which use metabolic technology in nearly 15 years, and to summarize. [Results]Nearly 15 years metabolomics research techniques and tools developed rapidly. But the acupuncture metabomoic studies were still based on the research of animal experiments mainly, relative clinical research less. [Conclusion] With the deepening development of metabolomics studies, the metabolic characteristics of various diseases will gradually clear. Acupuncture clinical mechanisms research combined with metabolomics technology will have broader prospects. But the research strategy of metabololic technology on acupuncture clinical efficacy is yet to be further explored and improved.

Objective To analyze on the responsibility of government for drug price addition canceling policy on incomes . Methods We Collected the 3-A hospital financial information statements and drug use data from January 2013 to September 2013 ( before reform) and from October 2013 to June 2014 ( after reform) .Results After taking evaluation of drug price addition cance-ling policy on incomes in the hospital, outpatient visits grew 9.62%, discharges increases 3.50%, and the outpatient average com-pensation fell by 4.69% and hospitalization fees per person increase 3.58%.Conclusion Preliminary results were obtained in con-trolling health care costs, medical services in ascension.The government's economic compensation economic compensation is difficult to make up for the cancellation of drug addition and reduce the reasonable income .It is suggested that we should improve the compen-sation scheme and assessment standards, and further strengthen the hospital internal management.

ObjectiveTo determine the protein and mRNA expression levels of interleukin-17 (IL-17) and proportions of Th17 cells in peripheral blood of patients with atopic dermatitis (AD),and to analyze their clinical significance.MethodsVenous blood samples were obtained from 63 patients with AD and 30 normal human controls.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was performed to measure the plasma level of IL-17 protein,real time fluorescence reverse transcription (RT)-PCR to detect the mRNA expression level of IL-17 in peripheral blood,flow cytometry to determine the percentage of Th17 cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs).Spearman's rank correlation analysis was performed to assess the relationship of peripheral blood Th17 cell percentage and IL-17 levels with disease severity in patients with AD.Results The percentage of Th17 cells in PBMCs was 1.83% ± 0.47% in patients with acute AD,significantly higher than that in normal human controls (0.85% ± 0.45%,t =4.128,P < 0.01 ) and in patients with chronic AD ( 1.12% ± 0.69%,t =2.439,P < 0.05).There was a significant increase in the plasma level (98.37 vs.63.75 ng/L,U =168,P < 0.05) and mRNA expression level of IL-17 in peripheral blood in patients with AD compared with normal controls.Both the Th17 cell percentage and plasma IL-17 level were positively correlated with eczema area and severity index(EASI) score in patients with AD (r =0.681,P < 0.01;r =0.427,P < 0.05).ConclusionsThere is an elevated proportion of Th17 cells and an abnormal expression of IL-17 protein and mRNA in peripheral blood from patients with acute AD,which are positively correlated with disease severity,implicating the possible roles of IL-17 and Th17 cells in the pathogenesis of AD.

Apoptosis refers to the programmed death process of cells modulated by genes. It plays an important role in promoting the evolution of organisms, regulating the development of multiple systems, and maintaining the stability of internal environment. The major apoptosis pathways include mitochondrial pathways, death receptor pathways, and endoplasmic reticulum pathways. With the rapid development of the scientific research on acupuncture, it’s revealed that cell apoptosis should be closely related to the action of acupuncture. So far, the major apoptosis factors involved in relevant researches are P53, Bcl-2 family, Cyt-C, Caspase, Fas/Fasl, TNFR1/TNF-?, and FADD-Caspase8, and PERK, etc. Via influencing these apoptosis factors or genes, acupuncture can produce various effects in improving tissue ischemia, protecting neural cells, reducing inflammation, and correcting endocrine disorders. This article summarized and reviewed the apoptosis pathways and key factors related to the action of acupuncture, to provide some beneficial references for future studies.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of rearrangements during transfection of papillary thyroid cancer (RET/PTC) 1,3 in fine needle aspiration (FNA) specimen from regional thyroid nodules by FQ-PCR.Methods Two hundred and eighty-five FNA samples were collected from patients with thyroid nodules during January 2012 to January 2013.RET/PTC1,3 rearrangements were detected with FQ-PCR.Results The frequencies of the RET/PTC1 and RET/PTC3 rearrangements in 285 FNA samples were 17.2% (49/285) and 1.4% (4/285),respectively.During 21.7 months of follow-up,19 (40.4%,19/47) RET/PTC1 positive patients were confirmed to have papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC) after operation.In the patients with RET/PTC1 rearrangement PTC was found in Thy5 and Thy4 groups.In Thy 2 group,22.6% cases with RET/PTC1 rearrangements developed PTC as compared with 3.2% cases without it(x2 =6.667,P<0.01).In addition,8.5% (4/47) RET/PTC1 rearrangements emerged in benign lesions.Conclusions It is convenient and reliable to detect RET/PTC1,3 rearrangements by FQ-PCR using FNA samples.RET/PTC1 rearrangement frequently occurs in PTC,however it would be detected in benign lesions occasionally.
