Unlike other vulnerable groups, rehabilitation is the most urgent problem to be resolved for the disabled. Good working onrehabilitation for the disabled is the foundation to improve the basic living condition and enhance the ability to participate in the society, andcommunity-based rehabilitation is the key to achieve "Rehabilitation for All" for the disabled. The goal "Rehabilitation for All" can beachieved only if "rehabilitation in community and service in family" be reached.

Medical biochemistry is a very important basic curricular in medicine teaching.But its theory is abstract,so it is difficult for teachers to teach.On the other hand,the students feel it hard to learn too,because they don't know how these theories are applied.We have applied case-based teaching in medical biochemistry teaching.These methods effectively improve students' enthusiasm to study and to train their scientific thinking in preliminary.Following this way we have explored a new way to elevate teaching qualities and search new teaching model and to further reform present medical biochemistry teaching model.

OBJECTIVE To re-evaluate Bifidobacterium from microecological point of view. METHODS With the development of microecology,it is paid more and more attention to the medical field.The genesis and development of diseases were closely related with microbe imbalance.As a kind of common microbial population in intestinal tract,Bifidobacterium are one of the most important sources for the exploitation of microecological preparation.Bifidobacterium were re-evaluated by the reference review method. RESULTS This review is focused on the current situation,bioactivity,clinical application,and prospective of Bifidobacterium. CONCLUSIONS Bifidobacterium have good application prospects.

Aim:To develop a practical chiral CE method for the quantitative determination of the unwanted enantiomer[( R )-enantiomer]presented in zolmitriptan. Methods:The background electrolyte was 20 mmol/L sodium dihydrogenphosphate solution with 1% S-β-CD,adjusted to pH 3.50 with phosphoric acid. A fused-silica capillary(60 cm×50 μm ID,effective length 51.5 cm)was used at 20 ℃ for the separation. The applied voltage was -30 kV. The samples were loaded by hydrodynamic injection(50 mbar pressure,6 s). UV was measured at 220 nm. Results:Zolmitriptan and its chiral impurity were baseline resolved ( R s=6.66). The linearity was good over the concentration range from 4 to 80 μg/mL( r =0.999 8) of ( R )-enantiomer. The injection precision (expressed as CV%) was 2.83%. The average recovery was 99.97%( n =9). The limit of detection was 1.5 μg/mL. The host-guest complex binding constants were 964 and 905 mol-1 for ( R )-enantiomer and zolmitriptan,respectively. Conclusion:The method is suitable for the determination of ( R )-enantiomer in zolmitriptan and binding constants of zolmitriptan enantiomers to S-β-CD.

ObjectiveTo investigate left ventricular (LV) radial dyssynchrony and LV rotational change of isolated complete left bundle branch block (CLBBB) and CLBBB with heart failure (HF).Methods Twenty-six isolated CLBBB patients,twenty-four CLBBB patients with HF and twenty healthy controls were studied.Two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D-STI) was applied to short-axis views to calculate LV radial dyssynchrony and LV rotational and twist degree and time to peak rotational and twist degree.ResultsLV radial dyssynchrony and LV rotation and twist degree were intermediately damaged in isolated CLBBB patients and was significantly damaged in CLBBB patients with HF,compared with healthy controls.ConclusionsFor isolated CLBBB patients,even if LV ejection fraction was in the normal range,another parameters of cardiac mechanic had changed and 2DSTI could be used to evaluate these alterations.

Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are fibrous structures released by neutrophils and the formation process is called NETosis. NETs participate in the host innate immunity. Recent research has found that NETs is a double-edged sword. Under normal conditions, the formation of NETs can play a role in clearing pathogens and maintain the host homeostasis. However, when NETs are overproduced or not cleared in time, they can take part in the pathogenesis of many diseases. This article reviewed the formation of NETs, the mechanisms involved in NETosis and the role of NETs in the secretion of multiple cytokines in different diseases.

Tramadol and its metabolites in rat urine were identified by LC-MS(n). Rat urine samples of 0-36 h were collected after ip 9.0 mg x kg(-1) tramadol, then the samples were enriched and purified through solid-phase extraction cartridge. Purified samples were analyzed by LC-MS(n). Possible metabolites were discovered by comparing the full scan and SIM chromatograms of the test samples with the corresponding blanks and analyzing the retention time, quasi-molecular ion and fragment ion of all chromatograms. Nine phase I metabolites and four phase II metabolites were identified in rat urine. One of the metabolites was found first time in living body. The metabolites were formed via the following metabolic pathways: O-demethylation, N-demethylation, hydroxylation, N-oxidation and conjugation. The method can be used to identify tramadol and its metabolites in other animals and human.

Objective To explore the status and economic burden of falls in elderly people living in an urban community and tO provide evidence for prevention of falls in the elderly. Methods A cross-section study was conducted in a community in Beijing.A total of 1512 persons aged 60 years and over were selected with stratified cluster sampling,and the data about falls within the past 12months,the consequences and the direct economic burden were collected by face-to-face interview.Results The overall incidence of falls was 18.0%within 1 year among 1512 interviewees.Of the participants,8.7%(131 cases)suffered from injuries of falls(143 times)and 77.6%(111 times)adopted the corresponding treatments.Direct economic burden caused by falls totaled 741.82 yuan per fall,including direct medical cost 650.77 yuan per fall,and 244.76 yuan per fall should be paid by the elderly themselves.In 143 times of falls,74.8%recovered and a few(5 cases)had complications and disability accordingly. Conclusions The incidence of fall in an urban elderly community of Beijing is high and will cause huge economic burden.

Objective To study the expression of mitochondrial tumor suppressor gene 1 (MTUS1) mR-NA in papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC).Methods Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) was used to detect MTUS1 mRNA level in 68 cases of human PTC and the adjacent non-cancerous epithelium (NCE) specimens.Results The relative expression value of MTUS1 mRNA in PTC was 0.31 ± 0.09,while it was 0.65 ±0.12 in NCE.The difference had statistical significance between the 2 groups(t =2.39,P ＜0.05).In PTC,mRNA expression of MTUS1 gene was related to the pathological grade,and lymph node metastasis(P ＜ 0.05)while it was not related to patients' age,sex,differentiation degree,tumor size or TNM stage(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion mRNA expression of MTUS1 gene is lower in PTC than in NCE,which may play an important role in carcinogenesis and progression of PTC.

Objective To assess alternations in left ventricular volume and systolic synchrony in patients with frequent premature ventricular complexes(PVCs) from the right ventricular outflow tract(RVOT).Methods Twenty-nine patients with frequent isolated PVCs from RVOT were included and 30 healthy subjects as control.Instantaneous full-volume imaging(IFI) was performed to evaluate left ventricle volumetric parameters,including end-systolic volume (ESV),end-diastolic volume (EDV),stroke volume (SV),ejection fraction (EF),and systolic synchrony parameters,including systolic dyssynchrony index (SDI),dispersion end-systole (DISPES),mean end-systolic time (MES),pre-contraction time volume (PreContr) and post-contraction time volume (PostContr).Contraction front mapping was performed to visualize volumetric contraction sequence.All values of patients with PVCs were recorded during sinus beats (PVC-S) and premature ventricular beats (PVC-V) respectively.Results Significant differences were observed in left ventricular systolic volumetric and synchrony parameters between PVC-V and control subjects (P＜0.01),as well as in MES and PreContr between PVC-S and control subjects (P＜0.01).Conclusions Left ventricular systolic dysynchrony was demonstrated in patients with PVCs from RVOT.IFI was a novel tool to analyze left ventricular global and regional volumetric alternations.
