This paper gives a brief introduction of the moral norms of medicine & health websites,HONcode,and its certification in international and domestic medicine & health websites.To build a standard for healthy and clear online data environment,it was suggested that the ideas of HONcode be applied to the quality control of domestic medicine & health websites.

Objective:To discuss the performance management method for large medical equipments in hospitals.Methods:13 large medical equipments in a large hospital were selected as samples and the economic efficiency analysis method and comprehensive evaluation method were aaplied to carry out performance management of medical equipment.Results:11 sets of medical equipment had good economic returns,the remaining 2 sets of equipments had a greater degree of loss due to lack of business and lack of qualification.Conclusion:Performance management of large medical equipments would help change the efficiency management of equipment from extensive to elaborate management.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between hyperuricemia and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) by observing the prevalence of NAFLD among healthy individuals with different levels of serum uric acid.Methods The data of 5 230 persons from medical centers for health examination were analyzed,such as height,weight,blood pressure,blood lipids,blood sugar, hepatitis-related markers, and abdominal color Doppler ultrasound examination were conducted in the fasting state.The diagnosis of NAFLD was made according to the diagnostic criteria adopted by China Institute of Liver Disease and Alcoholic Liver Disease Group.Results The incidences of overweight or obesity, hypertension,hyperlipidemia, and metabolic syndrome were raised with serum uric acid greater than 333 μmol/L in male and＞233 μmol/L in female subjects(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01). Excluding the metabolic syndrome in male subjects, the incidence of NAFLD was increased with serum uric acid,＞333 μmol/L in males or ＞233 μmol/L in females(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01). In further studies with subjects without any metabolic syndrome, the detection rate of NAFLD was higher in males than in females at the same serum uric acid level(P＜0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that sex, body mass index, blood glucose, and triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, uric acid grading were risk factors of NAFLD(OR 1.344, 2.500, 1.292, 1.279, 1.244, 1.256 respectively).Conclusion A high serum uric acid level is associated with an increased risk of NAFLD.

Objective To evaluate the values of CD64 expression in diagnosis of infected patients referred to intensive care unit.Method Sixty febrile children referred to the hospital intensive care unit from 2009.11 to 2010.03 were enrolled for a retrospective study.Fever was defined as a body temperature reaching 38℃ or higher with specifically bacterial infection or highly suspected with bacterial infection or viral infection.There were 28 patients with bacterial infection and 32 with viral infection.The non-infectious diseases such as juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and Kawasaki disease were excluded.The controls were 50 healthy children asking for physical examination.On admission,CD64 were measured by using flow cytometry,and blood routine examination,ESR,PCT,blood cultures and sputum cultures were simultaneously detected in all febrile patients.Data were statistically analyzed by using SAS 16.0 software.Data are given as means±SE.Categorical variables were analyzed using X2 test and continuous variables were compared by applying paired 1-tailed t test,Significance level was set at less than 0.05.Results of them,57.1%bacterial infection patients and 71.9%viral infection patients contracted pneumonia.CD64 in bacterial infection patients、viral infection patients and the subjects of control group were(12.6±9.7),(5.4±2.42)and (2.9±0.77),respectively.The CD64 in the bacterial infection patients were significantly higher than those in the virus infection patients(F=11.002,P=0.004).Conclusions CD64 in infected children referred to a hospital intensive care unit can be clearly distinguished between bacterial infections and viral infections, providing an important guidance and a flexible strategy for clinical treatment and determine the timing of withdrawal.

Background Tight junctions are thought to play a significant role in the maintenance of the corneal epithelial defense for the eye,and the restoration of the tight junctions is critical during epithelial wound healing after refractive surgery.However,there are few reports about this study. Objective The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the expression of occludin in corneal epithelium following flap-free epipolis laser insitu keratomileusis (Epi-LASIK) and laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy ( LASEK ). Methods Forty-eight clean New Zealand white rabbits were randomized into 2 groups,and 24 rabbits for each group.Flap-free Epi-LASIK and LASEK were performed in the right eyes of the rabbits in two groups,and other 2 age matched normal rabbits were as normal controls.The animals were sacrificed and the corneal samples were obtained at 1,2,3,5 days after surgery.Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the expression of occludin in the corneal epithelium,and RT-PCR was used to identify the level of occludin mRNA in the central cornea. Results Occludin protein was expressed innormal corneal epithelium and showed the green fluorescence with the regular arrangement.The fluorescence intensity was lower in 1 -2 days in LASEK group with the irregular arrangement;while the fluorescence signal in corneal epithelium was stronger in flap-free Epi-LASIK group.3-5 days after surgery,the fluorescence intensities were bothenhanced in two groups.RT-PCR showed that the relative expression of occludin mRNA in corneal epithelium was 0.11 ±0.02,0.25 ± 0.03,0.43 ± 0.04 in LASEK group 1,2,3 days after surgery,respectively,and was lower than those of flap-free Epi-LASIK group ( 0.20± 0.04,0.44 ± 0.04,0.76 ± 0.04 ),showing significant differences between these two groups ( t =6.476,12.898,17.315,P＜ 0.05 ).No significant difference was seen in the expression of occludin mRNA in 5 days after surgery between two groups( t=-0.733,P＞0.05).The relative values of occludin mRNA expression in corneal epithelium were gradually increased with time prolongation,presenting a significant difference among various time points ( Ftime =768.903,P =0.000). Conclusions The reformation of occludin in flap-free Epi-LASIK group is faster than that in LASEK group.Therefore,flap-free Epi-LASIK is prominant in reducing the stimulated symptoms and complication after the surgery.
