It is one heated topic to enhance the humanistic quality of current college students.This paper investigates and analyzes the status quo of humanistic education among the college students in two medical colleges in Tianjin city,exploring related issues in the humanistic education in the English language lecture teaching in medical colleges.

Asthma is heterogeneous disorder which caused by a complicated interaction between multiple genes and environmental factors. A increasing number of attention has paid in the researches about its pathogenic mechanism and therapeutic strategies. Not only can Toll-like receptors and signal transduction pathways mediate relevant immunocyte of asthma, but also induce or restrain development of asthma. TLRs is a land of pattern recognition receptor(PRRs), which can rely on the conserved sequence of gene encoding to identify pathogenic microorganism, meanwhile activate innate immunity,adjust acquired immunity and induce immune tolerance.

Objective To compare the outcomes of operative with non-operative treatment for thoracolumbar burst fracture without neurological deficit using Meta-analysis.Methods Electronic database were searched from inception to February 2014 by two independent reviewers,including Pubmed Medline,Excerpta Medica Database (Embase),Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials,Chinese Biology Medicine (CBM),Chinese Wanfang Database,and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI).Inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied to select the studies.Quality appraisal and data extraction were based on Cochrane Collaboration guidelines.Results Two randomized controlled trials (RCTs),which reported outcomes for 79 patients (41 with operative treatment and 38 with nonoperative treatment) at a follow-up of two years or more were included.Between-study heterogeneity was found to be significant,for one reported better results in surgery group concerning pain relief,function recovery and returning to work.However,opposite results were found in another trial.Meta-analysis showed surgery led to higher complication rates (RR =2.85,95％ CI 0.83-9.75),including subsequent surgery (RR =8.39,95％ CI 1.12-62.87).Conclusion Operative and nonoperative managements produce similar results with respect to pain relief,function regain,and returning to work when performed for thoracolumbar burst fractures without neurologic deficit,but operation is often associated with more complications.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of mechanical ventilation with different tidal volumes (VT) on coagulability and fibrinolytic characteristics in rabbits with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) induced by two-hits with oleic acid (OA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS).Methods Forty healthy adult male rabbits were randomly divided into five groups (8 rabbits in each group): sham operation group, model group, low VT group (6 mL/kg), rontine VT group (10 mL/kg), high VT group (15 mL/kg). ARDS model was reproduced by sequential injection of 0.1 mL/kg OA and 500μg/kg LPS via auricular vein, and the rabbits in sham operation group received normal saline in same volume. Mechanical ventilation was performed in different VT groups after model reproduction, and the end of the experiment was determined as 6 hours after LPS injection. Blood was collected from the carotid artery at 30 minutes and 360 minutes after LPS injection, with which arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) was determined, and oxygenation index was calculated. Internal jugular vein blood was collected at 5, 120, 240, and 360 minutes after LPS injection, and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), fibrinogen (Fib) and antithrombinⅢ(AT-Ⅲ) were determined. The blood was collected at the end of the experiment, and then the rabbits were sacrificed, and serum levels of procollagen typeⅢ (PⅢP), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) as well as PⅢP level in lung tissue were determined. The wet/dry weight ratio (W/D) of lung tissues was calculated.Results Compared with sham operation group, oxygenation index at both 30 minutes and 360 minutes were significantly decreased in model group, while W/D ratio was significantly increased. PT and APTT at 5 minutes were significantly shortened followed by a gradual increase. Fib and AT-Ⅲ showed no change at 5 minutes followed by a gradual decrease, while serum PAI-1 and PⅢP as well as PⅢP in lung tissue were significantly increased. There was no significant difference in oxygenation index between all VT groups and model group, with a tendency to increase in low VT group. W/D ratio in low VT group was the lowest (5.09±0.19), and it was significantly lower than that of the model group (6.02±0.27, P< 0.01), while it was the highest in high VT group (6.27±0.32). PT and APTT in all VT groups were gradually prolonged, and Fib and AT-Ⅲ were gradually decreased. PT and APTT in low VT group were significantly shorter than those in model group from 120 minutes on [PT (s): 120 minutes: 8.90±0.28 vs. 11.43±0.28, 240 minutes: 9.18±0.21 vs. 11.99±0.50, 360 minutes: 9.25±0.15 vs. 12.49±0.29; APTT (s): 120 minutes: 69.09±3.91 vs. 76.08±4.21, 240 minutes: 67.53±2.14 vs. 79.71±2.25, 360 minutes: 66.95±1.13 vs. 83.21±4.01, allP< 0.05], Fib (g/L) was significantly elevated (120 minutes: 3.80±0.09 vs. 3.38±0.15, 240 minutes: 3.91±0.05 vs. 2.47±0.16, 360 minutes:4.06±0.13 vs. 2.39±0.16, allP< 0.05), and no significant difference was found in AT-Ⅲ. Serum contents of PAI-1 and PⅢP as well as PⅢP in lung tissue were significantly lowered [serum PAI-1 (ng/L): 1.14±0.26 vs. 1.63±0.91, serum PⅢP (ng/L): 1.62±0.52 vs. 2.91±0.64, lung PⅢP (ng/L): 4.40±0.58 vs. 5.75±0.47, allP< 0.01]. The change tendency of all parameters in routine VT group was lower than that in low VT group, PT at 120 minutes and 360 minutes, APTT at 240 minutes and 360 minutes was significantly shorter than that in model group, and Fib at 120 minutes and 240 minutes were significantly higher than those in model group (allP< 0.05). No significant difference was found in AT-Ⅲ, serum PAI-1 and PⅢP as well as lung PⅢP as compared with model group. PT and APTT at 360 minutes in high VT group were significantly longer than those in model group, Fib at 360 minutes was significantly lower than that in model group, and lung PⅢP was significantly higher than that in model group. Conclusions There are some important changes in coagulability which changes from a hyper state into a hypo coagulate state, while fibrinolysis is inhibited during the pathological process of ARDS produced by two-hit of OA and LPS. Mechanical ventilation with low VT can obviously improve coagulability and fibrinolytic status, while ventilation with routine VT has little effect on coagulability and fibrinolytic status. Mechanical ventilation with high VT, however, will greatly deteriorate the coagulability and fibrinolytic function in ARDS.

PurposeTo explore the CT features and its diagnostic value of mediastinal congenital bronchogenic cysts.Materials and MethodsThe clinical findings and CT manifestations of 14 patients with mediastinal bronchogenic cysts confirmed by surgery and pathology were retrospectively analyzed, among which 12 were performed by both plain and enhanced CT scan, and the other 2 only received either plain or enhanced CT scan.ResultsAll the patients presentedfluid-filled cysts, and 3 of them had CT number lower than 20 HU, 7 cases from 20 to 60 HU, and 4 more than 60 HU. Four patients had lesions in anterior mediastinum, 4 others in posterior mediastinum, and all the 8 lesions were on the left side; 6 patients had lesions in middle mediastinum, among which 5 lesions were on the right side; and 1 case of posterior bronchogenic cysts cancerated into adenocarcinoma.ConclusionMediastinal bronchogenic cysts can appear in any part of mediastinum; lesions in middle mediastinum are more likely to occur on the right side, whilst lesions in anterior and posterior mediastinum are often located on the left side. The typical CT manifestations show well-defined round or oval masses of homogeneous soft-tissue or cysts with watery density.

Objective To explore the relationship between physical activity ( PA) in college students and self?efficacy,and provide guarantee for improving health education in colleges. Methods International physical ac?tivity questionnaire( IPAQ) ,scales of physical behavior,scales of stage of change in physical exercise behavior,and scales of self?efficacy were used to test 504 students from some of colleges in Zhejiang province. Results Signifi?cantly more males (38.52%) than females (27.27%) were in the high activity tertile (P<0.01); the amount of PA per week in males and females were (4608±872.07)MET and(4361±674.03)MET(P<0.01); the scores of males and females were (3.32±0.44) and(3.04±0.36),(P<0.01). The number of males (35.5%) in maintenance period and period of action is greater than that of females (28.9%). Males had higher self?efficacy and more scores of behavior than females (P<0.05) . There were significant characteristics of PA in their self?efficacy,score of be?havior and stages of change( F=18.38, F=15.08, F=34.71, P<0.01),and a significant correlation between PA and self?efficacy,stages of change and physical exercise behavior ( r=0.336, r=0.36, r=0.46, P<0.01).Conclu?sion Self?efficacy may have important effect on the level of PA. Stages of change and scores of behavior may ex?plain difference of PA between males and females.
