Objective To observe the clinical effect of Zhang point in subclavian vein puncture. Methods One hundred patients underwent deep vein catheterization were selected, ASA grade of Ⅱ- Ⅲ. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to puncture method with 50 cases each, the patients in group A used traditional puncturing method, and the patients in group B used Zhang point puncture method. The total success rate, success rate of the first trial and incidence of complication were recorded. All the patients received the bedside chest X-ray examination to observe the location of central venous catheter after surgery. Results The total success rate and success rate of the first trial in group B were significantly higher than those in group A:100%(50/50) vs. 88%(44/50) and 96%(48/50) vs. 76%(38/50), the incidence of complication was significantly lower than that in group A: 4% (2/50) vs. 20%(10/50), there were statistical differences (P<0.05). Conclusions Using of Zhang point is very simple in subclavian vein puncture catheterization, with a higher success rate and a less complication rate.

Objective To observe the effects of constant magnetic fields (CMF) on angiotensinⅡ (AngⅡ)-stimulated proliferation of human umbilical arterial vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Methods The experimental proliferation models of cultured human umbilical arterial VSMC stimulated with AngⅡ was establishea. The VSMC were cultured under 1 and 5 mT CMF for 48 hrs. Proliferation of the VSMC was detected by MTT and 3H-TdR incorporation method (A-value and cpm-value), and cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry. Results The CMF of 1 and 5 mT may antagonize proliferation of VSMC stimulated with AngⅡ, and hold-back VSMC from static phase (G 0/G 1)to DNA synthetic (S) and mitotic phase (G 2/M). Conclusion The study demonstrates that CMF of 1 and 5 mT can significantly inhibit the human VSMC proliferation.

Objective: To observe the effect of static magnetic fields(SMF) on the proliferation of bone mesenchymal stem cells(MSC) in human. Methods: The MSC were obtained by using gradient centrifuge method, and then selected by the adhesive method. The third generation cells were irradiated by use of static magnetic fields at different intensities for 5 days(8 h/d). The method of MTT was employed to evaluate the level of proliferation. The parameters regarding the variation of the cell cycle were detected with the flow cytometry(FCM). Results: As compared to the control group, the proliferative rate of the MSC exposed to 0.05 mT SMF was significantly higher; there was no difference between the 0.10 mT group and control group; howere, cell proliferation was attenuated significantly when SMF intensity was 0.50 mT and 1.00 mT. No abnormal ploidy was found in any group. Conclusion: The effect of SMF on the proliferation of MSC is dependent on the magnetic intensity. 0.05 mT SMF can accerate the proliferation of MSC. 0.10 mT SMF have no effects on the growth of MSC. Wherease, 0.50 mT and 1.00 mT SMF can attenuate the growth of MSC.

Objective To investigate the influences of photochemotherapy with psoralen and ultraviolet A (PUVA) on skin photoaging and its possible mechanism. Methods HE stain, Verhoeff stain, electron microscopy, enzyme cytochemistry and immunocytochemistry were used to study influences of PUVA on the skin photoaging with characteristic biological markers in the non-lesion back skin of patients with psoriasis vulgaris. Results After treatment with PUVA, the degenerated collagen and elastic fibers were increased with derangement profile in dermis, and fibroblasts displayed growth suppression and morphological changes of cell senescence with a permanent switch of mitotic to stably postmitotic phenotypes, of group B and group A, the positive rates of SA-?-Gal were 13.6 % and 0.00 % and the positive rates of p16 protein were 81.8 % and 42.9 % respectively, there were significant differences between group B and group A(? 2=21.412, P

Radiotherapy is one of the most important treatment method for head and neck cancer.The intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) has better conformal property and uniformity.IMRT is gradually replacing conventional radiation therapy and has become the mainstream radical treatment for head and neck cancer.During IMRT,the patient treatment positioning,inter-treatment,and intra-treatment variation of organ position,size,and shape impact the accuracy of radiation dose delivery.This method may cause target less and (or) additional complications.Adaptive radiotherapy (ART) is a new radiotherapy technology.Based on the patient's pre-treatment images and relative information such as dose deviation,ART can able to compensate the target coverage and clinical outcome.Under the help of ART technique,radiotherapy can be more accurate and more personalized.This paper reviews the research status of ART technology in head and neck cancerby retrospective studying the related literature at home and abroad.

Objective To investigate effect on telomerase activity, apoptosis and p53/bcl-2 gene expression of MCF-7 cells line induced by paclitaxel.Methods By techniques of cell culture in vitro, telomeric repeat amplification protocol with ELISA(TRAP-ELISA) and flow-cytometry (FCM), MCF-7 cell line was treated by paclitaxel in various concentration for 72h.Results Paclitaxel down-regulated telomerase activity of MCF-7 cell, induced apoptosis of the cell in a concentration-dependent manner, significantly decreased expression of bcl-2 gene protein and increased expression of p53 gene protein. There was a positive correlation between telomerase activity and apoptosis and the expression of p53/bcl-2 gene protein.ConclusionPaclitaxel could down-regulate telomerase activity,induce apoptosis, decrease expression of bcl-2 gene protein and increase expression of p53 gene protein, which may be one of important mechanisms of Paclitaxel′s anticancer action.

Objective To examine effects of hydrogen peroxide on intracellular free calcium concentration(i) in cardiac myocytes and its antagonism by carvedilol. Methods A cell culture of neonatal rat cardiac myocytes was used for experimentation. They were divided into four groups, i.e. control group, hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2) group, carvedilol group,and H 2O 2 + carvedilol group. Confocal microscope was used with Fluo-3/AM as calcium indicator to detect changes in i immediately and 15 minutes after H 2O 2 intervention, respectively. Results The intracellular fluoresence intensity of a single cardiae myocyts in the control group and carvedilol group was low. The intracellular fluoresence intensity of a single cardiac myocyte in H 2O 2 group was significantly higher than in the control group 15 minutes after intervention (P
