Objective To observe the effects ofTanyu Tongzhi Formula on proliferation and migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs);To explore its activity of pro-angiogenesis.Methods HUVECs were cultured in vitro. Rats were treated with gavage containing different doses ofTanyu Tongzhi Formula (78.0, 39.0, 19.5 g/kg) to prepare serum with different doses of medicine. The activity of HUVECs was measured by MTT method. The effects on migration of HUVECs were inspected by using scratch wound assay.Results Compared with the normal control group, serum containing high-dose and medium-doseTanyu Tongzhi Formula could significantly promote the proliferation of the HUVECs (P<0.01). The rates were 49.78% and 33.92% respectively. And the cell migration rate was higher in the two groups than in the normal control group (P<0.01). The rates were 11.36% and 11.62% respectively.ConclusionTanyu Tongzhi Formula can promote proliferation and migration in HUVEC, which may be active to pro-angiogenesis.

Object To determine the histochemical location d eposited artemisinin and to provide selection character for screening of Artemisia annua L. which contains rich content of artemisinin Methods Artemisinin was located by the histochemic al method and then statistical method was used to ascertain the correlation betw een the content of artemisinin and the density of biseriate glandular triche mes (BGT) Results Artemisinin is located in both BGT and non glandular T -shaped filamentous trichomes (NTFT) in A annua leave s The content of artemisinin had a positive correlation with the density of BG T in A annua leaves Conclusion High density of BGT in foliar tissue might be considered as one of the selection characters for the screening of A. annua with rich content of artemisinin

In order to improve the effect of teaching and teachers' ability,make our teaching methods adapt to the social development,the department of Endocrinology used the method of preparing lessons collectively in our teaching.We found that the method not only made the the supply of teachers reasonably but also made good contribution to the students' culture.Practice testified that the method of preparing lessons collectively could adapt to the new model of cultivation and create substantial results.

BACKGROUND: At present, more and more scholars pay attention to the influence of spine and pelvis sagittal balance on the quality of life of patients. Postoperative changes in spine imaging parameters fol owing corrective osteotomy for lumbar degenerative kyphosis have not been reported. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate postoperative changes in sagittal balance fol owing corrective osteotomy for lumbar degenerative kyphosis. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 35 consecutive lumbar degenerative kyphosis patients treated with posterior osteotomy fixation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from February 2012 to December 2014. Imaging parameters were measured before fixation, immediately after fixation and during final fol ow-up. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) There were significant differences between preoperative and postoperative parameters except for pelvic incidence angle (P < 0.05). (2) There were significant differences between postoperative and last fol ow-up parameters except for Cobb angle, pelvic incidence angle, thoracic kyphosis angle and the thoracolumbar kyphosis (P < 0.05). (3) Pelvic tilt angle was negatively correlated with lumbar lordosis after fixation (r=-0.610, P < 0.001). Thoracic kyphosis was positively correlated with lumbar lordosis (r=0.598, P < 0.001). (4) Results suggested that lumbar sagittal contour can be significantly improved by corrective osteotomy for lumbar degenerative kyphosis. Simultaneously, reciprocal changes in the adjacent areas such as thoracic spine and pelvis occur to adapt to the new sagittal balance.

Cancer-related fatigue(CRF) is one of the important symptoms for cancer patients,especially for the long-term survival patients after treatment.Its complexity and interdependency with other symptoms make it difficult to identify the clear underlying mechanisms. No single etiologic model provides a satisfactory explanation of cancer-related fatigue.For mild fatigue,non-pharmacological therapy is recommended.Non-pharmacological therapy combined with pharmacological therapies is recommended for patients with moderate and severe fatigue.

Objective To assess the effects of positions on circulation and neonatal during Caesarean section under epidural anaesthesia. Methods Eighty healthy parturients undergoing selective Caesarean section were randomly allocated in four groups with 20 cases each, who were positioned in supine (group S), left oblique 30 degress(group L), left oblique 15 degrees with 15 degrees Trendelenburg(group LT), or supine with 15 degrees Trendetenburg (group ST) position. MAP, HR,SpO_2 were recorded before and at 5 min, 10 min, 15 min during anesthesia. Apgar scores of 1-and 5-min were observed as well. Results MAP in groups of S, LT and ST was significantly lower at 10 min during anesthesia than that before or group L(P<0. 05) There was no significant difference in 1-and 5-min Apgar scores among four groups. Conclusion The left oblique 30 degrees position could effectively reduce the incidence of hypotension during Caesarean section under epidural anaesthesia
