ObjectiveTo investigate effects of exhaustive swimming on erythrocyte membrane composition. MethodThe components of rat erythrocyte membrane like sialic acid,phospholipid cholesterol ,ratio of cholesterol/phospholipid , -SH and MDA were measured afterexhaustive swimming. ResultThe components of erythrocyte membrane such as sialic acid,phospholipid and-SH decreased significantly while MDA,cholesterol/phospholipid ratio increased after exhaustive swimming,no significant change of cholesterol content was ob-served. ConclusionIt suggested that exhaustive swimming caused significant changes in composition of erythrocyte membrane impairing thedeformability and normal function of erythrocyte.

Objective To compare the feasibility and efficacy of PPSF with OPSF for thoracolumbar fractures.Methods We searched the PUBMED,OVID and Cochrane CENTRAL databases through Jan 2014.All of the clinical trials included were extrac-ted and evaluated by two reviewers independently.Data were analyzed using RevMan 5.2.6 software by the Cochrane Collabora-tion.Results Seven studies including 353 patients met the inclusion criteria.The Meta analysis found there were significant differ-ences between the two procedures in intraoperation blood loss (RR = 1.89,95%CI :1.55 - 2.29,P < 0.05)and operation time (RR=1.21,95%CI :1.12-1.30,P <0.05).For the correction of sagittal Cobb′s angle and the anterior vertebral body height,a-nalysis did not find any significant difference between the PPSF and OPSF(P >0.05).Conclusion Both PPSF and OPSF are safe and efficacious internal fixation methods for treating thoracolumbar fractures,while,PPSF may cause less blood loss and cost less time.

Objective We analyzed the current status of research publications and its citation in the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences,aimed to provide information for policy making in the office of research management.Methods We analyzed the number of published,cited frequency and subject classification for the research articles published in the Cancer Hospital,Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from 2004 to 2013.Results A total of 3749 research papers had been published from during the study period; cited frequency was 12633.Papers were mainly focused on three types of study,including cancer treatment,diagnosis,etiology and prevention.Conclusions Quantity of publications from 2004 to 2013 in Cancer Hospital,Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were improved significantly.The number of SCIE papers,cited papers and citation frequency increased as well,the number of articles cited and cited overall rate was essentially flat.It suggested that over the past decade academic research capabilities of Cancer Hospital in the field of cancer research continues to improve,however we should identify the existing problems and explore the strategy to improve the research ability.

Based on a clinical and radiological study of radiation injuries of the bones in the 17 cases, the relationship between the osseous changes and the radiation dosage and between the time from radiation therapy and the onset of the radiographic osseous changes were discussed. The authors found that the degree of local skin infection might determine the type of its underneath osseous injuries, i. e. being either "septic" (osteomyelitic) or "aseptic" (bone atrophic) radionecrosis, and it might also determine the time when the osseous changes appeared on the radiogram. It was found that radiation injuries of the bone could be distinguished from bone metastases. The authors suggest that a regular X-ray follow-up of the bones that had received a heavy dose of radiation should be made in order to reveal bone atrophy as early as posible and to remind the patient to avoid any trauma and infection.

Epidemic diseases often occur following natural disasters, such as earthquakes. The most commonly seen epidemics after an earthquake include: enteric diseases (dysentery, typoid and paratypoid fever, cholera, hand foot-mouth disease, hepatitis A, hepatitis E, etc), arthropod-borne infectious diseases (malaria, Kala-Azar, Japanese encephalitis, etc), zoonosis (plague, hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome, anthrax, etc), soil and epidemic water transmitted diseases (tetanus, gas gangrene, leptospirosis, etc), respiratory diseases (measles, rubella, influenza, etc), food-borne diseases (food poisoning caused by bacteria or bacterial toxin). This article reviews the controlling principles and measures for major infectious pathogens and epidemic diseases after earthquake.

Tropical medicine is defined by an association with geographic location, and it is a branch of medicine integrating preclinical medicine, clinical medicine and preventive medicine and investigating the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases of tropical and subtropical zones. Military tropical medicine is a new interdiscipline based on tropical medicine and military medicine. With the improvement of health condition and the development of global economy, some tropical infectious diseases have been gradually controlled. However, factors such as increasingly frequent international communication and extreme changes in global climate induced by overproduction activity of human are leading to a redistribution of infectious diseases, which inevitably has impact on military strategies and tactics. This article reviews the past and prospect of military tropical medicine.

Objective To analyze the efficacy of prophylactic dexamethasone in the treatment of aortic dissection with stent graft.Methods The clinical data of 87 patients who received aortic dissection with stent implantation were retrospectively analyzed.The treatment group(39 cases)was treated with dexamethasone on the basis of antibiotic prophylaxis to prevent infection,and the control group(48 cases)received antibiotics to prevent infection perioperatively.The curative effect was compared between the two groups.Results The degree of inflammatory reaction in the treatment group significantly reduced,and the treatment group had obvious curative effect(x2=54.88,P<0.01).The total effective rate,significant effective rate and effective rate of the treatment group were 92.31%,61.52%,7.70%,respectively,which were significantly higher than those of the control group(13.00%,6.25%,6.25%),the difference was statistically significant(x2=54.88,P<0.01).Conclusion Prophylactic use of dexamethasone in the treatment of systemic inflammatory response after aortic dissection with stent implantation has significant effect.

Objective To tudy the relationship of working family conflict and working pressure, symptom, working satisfaction, job burnout, and working achievement in Wanzhou district of Chongqing. Methods 1094 nurses were randomly surveyed in this study. Nursing woking family conflict scale, working pressure scale, symptom, working satisfaction scale, job burnout, and working achievement-related data were collected from clinical nursing units. Results High working family conflict had been ob-served in nurses of Wanzhou district of Chongqing. Nurses individual health had been greatly influenced by working family con-filct, which not influencing working achievement. Conclusions It is important to keep individual mental health through relieving job family conflict and taking more care for nurse population in family conflict.
