Objective To determine whether an environmental intervention tailored to each patient's allergic sensitization and environmental risk factors could improve asthma-related outcomes. Methods Irritant or allergen sensitivity determined by the patient's exposure history and confirmed with skin test. Patients were asked to record 2-week days without symptoms, days off-work(or school) and ?2-agonist puffs. Pulmonary function was also examined. Ninety-six asthmatics with atopic asthma (aged 16-78 years) were randomly assigned to a control group, an intervention group that received an educational handout monthly for 2 months. Asthmatics of both groups inhalded budesonide at a daily dose 200-800 ?g and ?2-agonist as needed. Environmental intervention lasted six months and included education and remediation for exposure to allergens. The control group had no special recommendations. Results The intervention group had more days without symptoms compared with the control group (13.4 vs.10.1days, P

The cardiovascular disease, accompanied by psychological disorder frequently, often re-quiresphysical and mental (double heart) treatment. The clinical teaching of cardiovascular graduate stu-dents is very important for cultivating qualified cardiovascular doctors. According to present situation, we improved the diagnosis rate and the doctor-patient communication skills by the strengthening of learning thedouble heart theory, the analysis ofdouble heart typical cases, and the clinical practice of double heart medical model. Accordingly, we enhanced the consciousness of double heart, which is helpful to reducing the conflicts between doctors and patients, promoted the rational use of medical resources, and fi-nally promoted the application ofdouble heartmedical model in clinical practice.

Aurora-B as an important kinase to adjust the cell normal mitosis is a potent target for cancer treatment. Aurora-B is overexpressed in a broad range of tumor and tumor cells are more sensitive while Aurora-B is inhibited. Due to the key role of the Aurora-B in cell mitosis, the development of its inhibitors is becoming more and more important. Several small molecules inhibit with a similar efficacy both Aurora-A and Aurora-B, however, in most cases the effects resemble Aurora-B disruption by genetic methods, indicating that Aurora-B represents an effective therapeutic target. There were several Aurora-B kinase inhibitors which had entered the clinics and displayed good antitumor activity. In this review, we will outline the functions of Aurora kinase B in normal cell division and in malignancy. We will focus on recent preclinical and clinical studies that have explored the mechanism of action and clinical effect of Aurora-B inhibitors in cancer treatment.

Three-orientation medical talent training mainly include humanistic quality cultivation, professional quality and physical and mental quality. With professional ability as the guidance of profes-sional quality education requires students not only to grasp skilled medical technology, but also have the ability to enhance the medical technology. Based on the orientation of training target, this research mainly from habit set, authority set, set the multitude and empirical mind-set four aspects in this paper, the critical thinking, and put forward problems from finding problems, and expounds the innovative thinking of concise problem.

The fundus lesions appear in early pathological myopia and develops step by step,causing significant visual impairment.The occurrence of choroidal neovascularization is the main cause for the vision loss.This paper gives an introduction to the prevalence,damages,outcomes,affecting factors and treatment for pathologic myopia,and lays emphasis on the progress of medical treatment with anti-vascular endothelium growth factor.

Dystonia is a common movement disorder characterized by abnormal gestures and involuntary movement as a result of incoordinate contraction of agonistic and antagonistic muscles.The underlying pathogenesis is very complicated and there are various clinical manifestations.The recent findings in genetics and clinical features of primary dystonia,dystonia-plus syndrome and heredodegenerative dystonia are introduced in this paper.
