Promoting self-discipline in morality, strengthening restraint by rules and regulations and enhancing legal protection of intellectual property are some of the key links in perfecting the credit system and consummating large-scale scientific and technological cooperation. Adopting the "coordinate signature system" for significant achievements through large-scale scientific and technological cooperation is the driving force behind such cooperation. Establishing information and experimental technology platforms is the basis and supplementary, means of scientific and technological cooperation while setting up a talent flow and excitation system and perfecting the system of resources integration and sharing are beneficial to the creation of a sound environment for large-scale scientific and technological cooperation.

Qualitative and quantitative analyses of biological samples containing drugs, toxicants and endogenous substances play an important role in the researches of life sciences, as well as in new drug discovery and development. Biological samples are characterized by complex matrix, multiple endogenous interferences, significantly lower concentrations of measured analytes compared to endogenous components and small sampling volume. Consequently, it often requires bioanalysis methods with superior specificity, high sensitivity and good reproducibility. The two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) technique, which allows for high peak capacity, significant reduced matrix effect and carryover of complex matrix samples and automated sample pre-treatment and analysis, has been the powerful solution to the separation and analysis of biological sample and widely applied to environment, food and pharmaceutical analysis. On the basis of introduction of the principle and equipments of 2D-LC, the application of this technique in the pharmacokinetics, toxicological and biological study was reviewed.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture in treating spastic paralysis following cerebral infarction. Methods: Sixty patients with spastic paralysis after cerebral infarction were randomly allocated into control group and treatment group, 30 cases each. The control group was treated with conventional acupuncture and the treatment group was treated with conventional acupuncture plus electroacupuncture according to the principle of antagonistic acupuncture. Both groups were given routine drugs and scalp acupuncture treatment. Results: Statistical analysis showed significant differences in NFI score and clinical curative effect score between pretreatment and posttreatment in the treatment and control groups and between the treatment and control groups. Conclusion: Both electroacupuncture and conventional acupuncture have clinical curative effect on spastic paralysis following cerebral infarction, but the curative effect of electroacupuncture is significantly superior to that of conventional acupuncture.

Objective:To observe the effect of Tangshenning on renal function and LOX-1 mRNA expression in the kidney of early diabetic nephropathy rats model. Methods:Early diabetic nephropathy rats model was made with high fat diet, STZ and unilateral ne-phregtomy. After the 12-week drug intervention, the rats were sacrificed, the kidneys were removed and the mRNA expressions of LOX-1 in the kidney were observed by the method of RT-PCR. Results:Early diabetic nephropathy rats model was successfully made by the triple-modeling method. The mRNA expression of LOX-1 in the kidney was significantly increased, and Tangshenning could low-er the expression of LOX-1 in the kidney in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion:The abnormal expression of LOX-1 could be one of the mechanisms for diabetic nephropathy. Tangshening has good kidney protective effect through decreasing LOX-1 abnormal expression in the kidneys, which deserves further research.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of 3D printing technology in percutaneous nephrolithotomy(PCNL) to complex renal calculi.Methods:The clinical data of 41 patients with complex renal calculi from May 2018 to October 2019, in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University and Xiang'an District of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University were retrospectively analyzed. There were 19 cases underwent PCNL after 3D printing (3D printing group), and 22 cases during the same period did not undergo 3D printing before operation (control group). Before operation, the two groups underwent CT plain scan enhanced examination. In 3D printing group, 3D printing technology was used to obtain 3D renal models, then 3D renal models were used for preoperative design and simulation of surgical puncture and preoperative conversation.The control group only underwent PCNL after routine examination.The ages of the patients in 3D printing group and control group were (42.9±2.5) vs. (41.3±2.9) years old, male/female ratio 11/8 vs. 12/10, body mass index (22.4±1.1) vs. (23.2±1.4) kg/m 2, serum creatinine (42.9±2.5) vs. (78.2±4.5) μmol/L, stone size (5.0±1.2) vs. (5.2±1.3) cm, the CT values of the stones was (930±210) vs.(950±200) HU. The difference of above parameters was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The following indexes were compared between the two groups: score of questionnaire on satisfaction of preoperative conversation, and datas about operation and postopetation. Results:All the operations were successfully completed. The time of locating the target calyces in 3D printing group and control group was (3.3±1.3) vs. (5.3±3.1) min, and the coincidence of puncture calices was 94.7% (18/19) vs. 54.5%(12/22), and the stone removal rate of the 3D printing group was 78.9% (17/19) vs. 36.4% (8/22), 3D printing group was better than the control group in these respects( P < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in postoperative complications [21.0% (4/19) vs. 13.6% (3/22)], multi-channel[89.4% (17/19) vs. 86.4% (19/22)], operation time [(121.8±20.2) vs. (132.1±18.5) min], time of hospitalization [(7.6±1.3) vs. (8.0±1.8)d] and time of extubation for renal fistula [(3.8±1.7)vs. (4.5±2.0 )d] (all P > 0.05). During preoperative conversation between the 3D printing group and the control group , the time spent on signing the consent [(17.0±3.9) vs.(21.0±3.3) min], the degree of understanding of the stone condition [(2.5±0.6)vs.(2.0±1.2) points], the degree of understanding of the PCNL surgical process and complications [(2.6±0.6) vs.(1.8±1.3) points] and the degree of satisfaction with the doctor’s preoperative conversation effects [(2.4±0.9) vs.(1.7±1.6) points]were significantly different in comparisons ( P<0.05). Conclusions:3D printing technology can be used in PCNL to directly display the internal anatomical relationship of renal calculi, guide accurate preoperative designing, help improve the operation efficiency and stone clearance rate, and can also be used as a mold in preoperative conversation to improve communication efficiency.

Objective To evaluate the miRNA change between hypothermia circulatory arrest at different temperature and its impact on intestinal protection.Methods Sixteen piglets were randomly(n =4) divided into four groups:deep hypothermia circulatory arrest (DHCA,18℃) group,moderate hypothermia circulatory arrest(MHCA,24℃) group,cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) group and sham operation(SO) group.They were subjected to 80 min hypothermia circulatory arrest,305 min CPB or thoracotomy,respectively.Pick-and-mix custom miRNA real-time PCR panels were utilized to detect intestinal samples.miRNA expression between DHCA and MHCA were compared directly(DHCA vs.MHCA) and indirectly(DHCA/SO vs.MHCA/SO,DHCA/CPB vs.MHCA/CPB).Results Exposure to DHCA caused less intestinal miRNA dysregulation than MHCA.Besides,seven miRNAs(miR-122,miR-145-5p,miR-421-5p,miR-99a,miR-365-5p,miR-31 and miR-192)were differentially expressed between the two hypothermia circulatory arrest groups.Conclusion Better intestinal miRNA protection was provided by DHCA than MHCA.Intestinal miRNA were differentially expressed between hypothermia circulatory arrest at different temperature.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in patients with minor stroke with large vessel occlusion (LVO).Methods:Twenty-three patients with minor stroke with LVO, admitted to our hospital from January 2017 to July 2019, were consecutively collected in our study; patients with contraindications of intravenous thrombolysis should be treated with direct thrombectomy, and the left were given bridging therapy (intravenous thrombolysis combined with MT). NIHSS scores were used to assess the degrees of neurological impairment at admission, and 12 h and 7 d after treatment. Vascular recanalization was assessed by modified cerebral infarction thrombolysis (mTICI) grading, with grading 2B-3 defined as successful recanalization. The prognoses 90 d after treatment were assessed by modified Rankin scale (mRS), and mRS scores≤2 was classified as having good prognosis. Safety indicators included symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, incidence of complications, and mortality 90 d after treatment.Results:Twenty-two patients had successfully recanalization; 19 patients had mTICI grading 3 and 3 patients had grading 2B. The NIHSS scores were 3 (2, 5) at admission, 2 (2, 3) 12 h after treatment, and 2 (1, 2) 7 d after treatment, with significant difference ( χ2=14.028, P=0.001); NIHSS scores 12 h and 7 d after treatment were significantly lower than those at admission ( P<0.05). Sixteen patients (69.6%) enjoyed good prognosis and 7 patients (30.4%) had poor prognosis. In terms of safety, two patients had symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage,10 had systemic complications, and one died during 90-d of follow-up. Conclusion:MT is effective and safe in minor stroke patients with LVO.
