3.The effect of coix seed oil on lung cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(2):139-141
Coix seed has anti-tumor effect and the anti-tumor activity composition is coix seed oil. Researches show that inducing cancer cell apoptosis and angiogenesis inhibition and regulation of the immune and analgesic function are the major roles of coix seed oil. Clinical researches prove that the effect can be increased and the life quality of lung cancer patients can be improved and the survival time can be prolonged when coix seed oil is used to treating lung cancer combined with Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy. So it is widely used in the treatment of lung cancer.
4.Distribution and antimicrobial resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a county-level hospital
Chinese Journal of Infection Control 2014;(4):246-248
Objective To analyze the distribution and antimicrobial resistance of Pseudomonasaeruginosa(P. aeruginosa)in a county-level hospital,provide reference for rational antimicrobial use,and promote the control and prevention of healthcare-associated infection (HAI).Methods Data of P.aeruginosaisolated from patients in a hospital between 2010 and 2012 were analyzed statistically.Results A total of 369 P.aeruginosaisolates were iso-lated,strains were mainly from specimens of sputum(n= 234,63.41% ),urine(n= 41,11.11% )and wound(n= 28, 7.59% );most strains were from intensive care unit(n= 146,39.56% ),respiratory diseases department(n= 51, 13.82% )and neurosurgical department(n= 37,10.03% ).P.aeruginosastrains were not resistant to polymyxin B;the resistance rates to imipenem,meropenem,cefoperazone/sulbactam,piperacillin/tazobactam and amikacin were all low(6.81% -22.73% );from 2010 to 2012,resistance rates to antimicrobial agents (except polymyxin B) increased with varying degrees,some antimicrobial agents showed statistical difference(P<0.05).Conclusion P. aeruginosais mainly isolated from respiratory specimens,mainly distributed in departments with serious patients;and resistance to most antimicrobial agents is high,resistance tendency is increasing,surveillance should be intensi-fied.
6.Effect of Early Rehabilitation on Patients with Spinal Cord Injury
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2006;12(7):574-575
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of early rehabilitation on motor function and prognosis of the patients with spinal cord injury (SCI).MethodsAccording to started date of rehabilitation, 60 SCI patients were divided into the early rehabilitation group (within two weeks after operation) and control group (three months after operation) with 30 cases in each group. The motor function and activities of daily living (ADL) of all patients were evaluated before and 3 months after treatment, and the incidence rates of complications of two groups were compared.ResultsAfter 3 months treatment, the incidence rates of complications often occurred after SCI such as pulmonary diseases, urinary infection, osteoporosis and adductor, extensor spasticity in the lower limbs etc. were lower than those in the control group. There was a significant difference between two groups. The motor function and ADL of the patients in the early rehabilitation group were better than those of patients in the control group ( P<0.05~0.01).ConclusionEarly rehabilitation after SCI can significantly decrease the incidence rate of complications and improve patient's motor function and ADL.

8.Spinal Locomotor Pattern Generator (review)
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2006;12(12):1017-1020
It is generally accepted that locomotion in mammals, including humans, is based on the activity of neuronal circuits within the spinal cord (the central pattern generator, CPG). Recent studies indicate a plastic behavior of the spinal neuronal circuits following a spinal cord injuries (SCI). Studies have shown that body weight support treadmill training (BWSTT) is effective in restoring locomotor function in cats with a complete spinal lesion. It has become possible to regain some locomotor activity in patients with spinal cord injury through an intense training on BWSTT, as in cat. So, it is a staired problem how to take advantage of the plasticity of spinal locomotor pattern generator and design the gait training program for SCI patients.

Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(8):563-565
Small RNA (miRNA) can regulate post-transcriptional level of mRNA. miRNA is closely related to the occurrence and development of a variety of human diseases such as gastric cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, liver cancer, etc. Many kinds of miRNAs in human cancers are significantly abnomadly expressed. miRNA can be regarded as a marker for many human cancers diagnosis.
