Incidence of acute kidney injury ( AKI ) is increasing rapidly to epidemic proportions . Development of AKI is associated with increased morbidity , mortality and hospitalization costs .Currently available diagnostic tools are mostly insensitive for early diagnosis of AKI .Finding an early, reliable, easily reproducible , economical and accurate biomarker for AKI is a top research priority .In recent years , many serum and urinary proteins have been investigated as possible early markers of AKI .

Objective To observe the efficacy of Zishen Anshen Decoction combined with Compound Zaoren (Ziziphi Spinosae Semen) Capsule on insomnia patients with disharmony between heart-yang and kidney-yin syndrome and its effect on sleep quality index. Methods Seventy insomnia patients were randomly divided into treatment group and control group. Both groups conventionally took estazolam as needed, the treatment group was additionally given Zishen Anshen Decoction (in the afternoon and after dinner) and Compound Zaoren Capsule (before sleep at night) for 14 d. The Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) score and dosage of estazolam were used as evaluation indexes for the comparison between the two groups. Results PSQI score of daytime function disorder and hypnotics dosage of the treatment group was significantly lower than that of the control group, and the dosages of estazolam were reduced (P<0.05). Conclusion The alternative application of Zishen Anshen Decoction and Compound Zaoren Capsule on insomnia treatment can not only improve daytime function, but also reduce the dosage of benzodiazepine, with better effect than estazolam.

There were 12 patients who were all type C1 or C3 epipod comminuted fracture.By means of the internal fixation,all patients were transplanted with the nanometer artificial bones,comprising hydroxyapatite and ?-tricalcium phosphate.The 12 patients used the bacteriophages preoperation,during operation and 3 days postoperation.They were free from pressure dressing and started to take exercises 48 hours postoperatively.Followed up for 6-12 months,all of the 12 patients healed well.So nanometer artificial bone is an effective method for the epipodite comminuted fracture,without any severe toxicity or complications.

Objective To analyze the effectiveness of doctor-patient communication course on improvement of doctor-patient communication ability.Methods Totally 360 eight-year program medical students of clinical medicine from Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine were chosen as the research object and were divided into educational group(n＝l80) and control group(n＝180).Students in educational group study doctor-patient communication course while those in control group do not.SEGUE Framework was used to conduct exploratory research between educational group and control group.Accuracy of questionnaire database was examined by Excel software and logical test.KoImogorov-Smimov(K-S test) was applied to analyze the scores and (x ± s) was used to express the data through SPSS 16.0 statistical software.Comparison between group differences are statistically significant(P＜0.05).Results Overall score was higher in educational group than in control group.Concerning of communication initiation,infomation collection and understanding of patients,scores of educational group were significantly higher than those of control group(P=0.001,P=0.002 and P=0.007,respec-tively).Furthermnore,KoInogorov-Smimov(K-S test) and (x ± s) statistical results showed that scores of detailed items were higher in educational group than in control group as well.Conclusions Doctor-patient communication course is of great importance to help medical students practice physician-patient communication based on related knowledge learning,but course content setting remains to be further improved.

Objective To study the effect and safety of intra-arterial thrombolysis combined with mechanical ad-juvant in the treatment of acute large artery occlusive infarction of anterior circulation and posterior circulation. Methods Fourty-tow patients were divided into anterior circulation group (24 cases) and posterior circulation group(18 cases). The recanalization rate, NIHSS score (National Institute of Health stroke scale), GCS score ( Glasgow coma score,GCS), BI ( Barthel Index) excellent rate, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage rate and mortality was analyzed after intra-arterial thrombolysis combined with mechanical aids therapy. Results The anterior circulation group was mainly caused by car-diogenic embolism (15/24, 62.5%) and posterior circulation group was mainly caused by atherosclerosis thrombosis (5/18, 72.2%). The NIHSS score was significantly lower after treatment (8.3±4.9 vs. 8.1±5.7) than before treatment(15.1±5.3 vs. 16.8±7.8)(P=0.001 vs. P=0.001), the GCS score was significantly higher after treatment(13.9±4.4 vs. 12.8±4.2)than be-fore treatment(9.5 ± 3.8 vs. 9.6 ± 3.7)(P=0.001 vs. P=0.021). The symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage rate was signifi-cant higher in anterior circulation group (5/24, 20.8%) than in posterior circulation group (0,0%) (P<0.05). Compared with the anterior circulation group, the recanalization rate trended to increase in posterior circulation group (P=0.830).The symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage rate in anterior circulation group (5/24,20.8%) was significant higher than in pos-terior circulation group (0,0%) (P<0.05), the mortality was similar between these two groups. Conclusions Intra-arterial thrombolysis combined with mechanical adjuvant therapy can improve neurological deficit in acute large artery occlusive infarction and increase the recanalization rate,which is more suitable for the treatment of posterior circulation infarction.

The structure of the hyperbaric oxygen chamber was introduced, and the application of automatic control system to the chamber was discussed from the aspects of the function and information system. The automatic control system can be used for monitoring and control of equipment condition, operation flow and performance data during hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which enhances the efficiency and safety of hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

Objective: To study the attenuating effect of angiotensin I type 1 receptor antagonist losartan and an-giotensin converting enzyme inhibitor captopril on aortic atherosclerosis in rabbits. Methods: Thirty-one male New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 5 groups:control group,high cholesterol diet group,losartan group, captopril group and combined drug administration groupdosartan+captopril). The animals were killed after 16 weeks and the serum total cholesterol ,triglyceride, high and low density cholesterol .atherosclertic ratio,endothelin,NO,plaque area percentage,aortic cholesterol content and vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) apoptosis were determined. Results:The plaque area percentage,aortic cholesterol contents and endothelin levels of 3 drug treatment groups were significantly lower than that of high cholesterol group,NO contents and VSMC apoptosis were significantly higher. Conclusion:Losartan and captopril can attenuate aortic atherosclerosis induced by high cholesterol diet .combined administration of the 2 drugs at low doses are more effective. The mechanism may be related to the protection of endothelial function and the effect on apoptosis of VSMC.

Medical laboratories provide test data and consultation services and are engaged in ensuring test results being timely,accurate and reliable,which are satisfactory for their service recipients.A summary of the customer satisfaction theory and quality management system,and an analysis of problems found in the quality management of such laboratories,attempt to pinpoint underlying causes of service quality setbacks.Based on such studies,the quality management system is built in accordance with customer satisfaction theory and CNAS-CL02 Accreditation Criteria for the Quality and Competence of Medical Laboratories (ISO 15189:2007).Such efforts aim to continuously improve service quality and ensure customer satisfaction.

Objective To investigate correlations between nursing students’discrimination on psychopaths and exposure to them.Method One hundred and twenty-one nursing students were involved in the investigation by a general information questionnaire,a discrimination against mental patients scale(DAMPS)and an exposure to mental patients scale(FLS).Results The total mean score on discrimination,scores on isolation dimension and scores on capability were all significantly lower than the norms(all P<0.01).Negative correlation was observed between nursing students’discrimination against patients and exposure to patients(r=-0.31,P<0.05). Conclusion Measures should be taken to encourage nurses to understand patients so as to alleviate their discrimination.
