Jiujing Tu (Illustration of Moxibustion), excavated from Mo Kao Grotto at Dunhuang, is one of the earliest existing monographs on moxibustion. The medical masters from different schools have focused on this book because it is different from the existing ancient medical works and have not been collected in the medical works of different dynasties. In this study, the literature of Jiujing Tu on five acupoints (Dachangshu, Pangguangshu, Daxiaochangshu, Nieshu and Cigong) relevant with intestinal disorders is collected. It is intended to discuss and analyze the acupoint location, main intestinal disorder, moxibustion characters, recognition on the literature of different dynasties and modern clinical applications. It is believed that the thought of strong moxibustion in the treatment of intestinal disorders advocated in Jiujing Tu has profound impact on the medical development in later generations. It deserves us to have a further digging, collection and promotion of this thought in the modern time.

Objective To compare the advantages and disadvantages of the amplification refractory mutation system -polymerase chain reaction (ARMS-PCR) with restriction fragment length polymorphism polymerase chain reaction(RFLP-PCR) technology, then explore its application in detection and analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). Methods By using ARMS-PCR and RFLP-PCR the polymorphisms of the MMP-2 in cervical cancer and the normal-control group were analyzed. The research sites were-1306 C/T.The final result was verified by DNA sequencing. Results The results of amplified used ARMS-PCR showed that the genotypes of the SNP site in MMP-2 gene promoter were CC, CT, TT, and the DNA fragments were corresponding with the results of DNA sequencing. Conclusion ARMS-PCR technology has the advantages of lower cost time-saving simple operation and reliable results, while has a high value for research of SNP.

The clinical experience of professorfor polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) was summarized. According to the main pathogenesis of PCOS, the tonifying kidney should be taken as essence with synchronous treatment on liver, spleen and heart, presenting staging, classification and sorting method for PCOS. In the staging method, the regulation on follicle development should be taken as treatment core to comply with the rules ofand. A four-stage method was proposed, where "regulating method" was suitable in menstrual period, "tonifying method" in follicular phase;"dredging method" in ovulatory period and "adjustment and tonifying " in luteal phase. In the classification and sorting method, attention was paid on individualized treatment, and treatment was based on fat type, thin type and non-fat type as well as childbearing. Besides, psychological counseling and life adjustment for patient was essential, and the unity of body and mind could enhance curative effect.
