Objective:To understand the effect and existing problems of teaching reform about primary health care demands in local medical universities and colleges.Methods:With sampling survey method,150 students from Xi'an Medical College were investigated using questionnaires.Results:Totally 93.1% of the freshmen approved of setting up the courses,72.6% of the students thought that nursing ethics and skills were equally important,43.2% of the students thought learning this course made themselves have a new understanding of nursing ethics.Totally 84.2% of the students were satisfied with the teacher's teaching process,while 69% of the students were not satisfied with the existing teaching materials.Conclusion:The teaching method oriented by practical problems and the teachers' own efforts are prerequisites for students' acceptance of this course.Content setting based on post needs is an important link of nursing ethics teaching effect.Setting up sustainable teaching time is the basis of the teaching effect.High quality teaching materials are necessary conditions to achieve the teaching orderly.

Warming yang, which is one of the treatment principles of traditional Chinese Medicine, is very important in treating chronic heart failure, especially late-stage heart failure. It has been proved in many experiments and clinical trials that warming yang can improve the hemodynamic parameters. The treatment strategy for heart failure has changed from short-term correction of hemodynamic parameters to long-term rehabilitation approaches. We discussed the possible negative-effects of warming yang on neuroendocrine responses and myocardial remodeling. The potential beneficial effects of treatment for nourishing yin or nourishing yin combined with warming yang on heart failure were also explored.

This article elucidates the relationship between the human susceptibility to obesity and gene polymorphisms such as peroxisome proliferators-activated receptors(PPARs)and PPAR?coactivator-1,along with milestones in the formation and development of capacity for fat deposition during evolutionary history of human.An biological evolutionary analysis,identifying factors favoring the energy stores,may be helpful to the development of preventive public health strategies.

Pediatrics internship is a bridge that brings medical theory into clinical reality.Cultivate systematic clinical thinking during internship is the key to the growth of clinical doctors.Good outcome has been achieved among these eight-year medical students by using teaching methods such as case discussions,lectures,teacher instructions,which can cultivate proper clinical thinking and make students more active.

Objective:To identify metastasis-associated genes in salivary gland adenoid cystic carcinoma(ACC).Methods:Salivary gland adenoid cytic carcinoma cell line ACC-2 and its highly metastatic ACC-M cells were used to screen the metastasis-related genes in ACC by microarray technology.Two fluorescent cDNA probes labeled with Cy3 and Cy5 dyes,were prepared from the mRNA samples of ACC-2 and ACC-M cells by reverse transcription method.The two color probes were then mixed and hybridized on the cDNA chip constructed by double dots of 1152 human genes,and scanned at two wave lengths.Differentialy expressed genes of the two cell lines were analyzed using computer.Then seven of the differently expressed genes were further validated by RT-PCR technique.Results:Of the 1,152 known genes and expressed sequence tags,26 showed significantly different expression level(minimum 2 fold) between the two cell lines.Among the 26 genes,19 were up regulated(with ratio more than 2) and 7 were down(with ratio less than 1/2).The results of RT-PCR analysis for 7 differently expressed genes were coincident with those of microarray assay.Conclusions:Down regulation of LIFR,LCP1,DPEP1 and ABLIM1,and up regulation of DCC,MMP1 and CNTN2 may be related to the highly metastatic potential of ACC-M cell line.

Cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) is a bacterial second messenger of growing recognition involved in the regulation of a number of complex physiological processes. In combinations to the related progress of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, the causing agent of bacterial blight of rice in our lab, this review describes (1) the biosynthesis and hydrolysis of c-di-GMP and several mechanisms of regulation of c-di-GMP metabo-lism, (2) the contribution of c-di-GMP to regulating virulence, motility and biofilm formation, processes that affect pathogenesis of many bacteria, and (3) ways in which c-di-GMP may mediate these regulatory effects.

Objective To investigate the effect of different sex hormones on insulin-stimulated glucose uptake on cultrured 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and adipocytes.Methods We treated cultured 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and adipocytes with different concentrations of 17?-Estradiol or testosterone and the effects were assessed as 2-deoxy glucose uptake.Results After incubation with 17?-Estradiol or testosterone,the ability of insulin-stimulated glucose transport was statistically significantly reduced.Dosage response study demonstrated that(10~(-7) mol/L) testosterone or(10~(-8) mol/L) 17?-Estradiol can induce insulin resistance(P

This study was aimed to explore factors related to microalbuminuria of early stage of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Through epidemiologic survey, syndrome data of patients with early stage of DN were collected. The analysis was made on relationship between MAU (strain) of early stage of DN patients and the influencing factors (variable) with logistic regression analysis. The influencing factors were investigated in the early stage of DN patients in MAU. The epidemiological study showed a close relationship between factors such as active living style, easy irritability, drinking, old age, long disease course, phlegm and dampness body constitution, qi-stagnation body constitution, purple or dark tongue, thin and rapid pulse, yin deficiency and heat pattern, qi-yin deficiency pattern, cold and dampness pattern with the incidence of early stage of DN. It was concluded that there were 114 cases of early stage of DN with MAU of 20-52 μg·mL-1. The risk factors contained easy irritability, qi-stagnation body constitution, purple or dark tongue, yin deficiency and heat pattern, qi-yin deficiency pattern, as well as cold and dampness pattern. The protective factor contained active living style. There were 95 cases of early stage of DN with MAU of 53-199 μg·mL-1. The risk factors contained drinking, old age, long disease course, phlegm and dampness body constitution, as well as thin and rapid pulse.
