Objective To observe two main subtypes of MAPK family-ERK and JNK activation in HSCs and investigate the effects of the serum of Radix Salviae Militiorrhizae treated animals on the activation of ERK and JNK in HSCs. Methods HSCs were cultured in vitro. After the model of hepatic fibrosis was replicated in SD rats, Radix Salviae Militiorrhizae decoction was given via gastrogavage to the rats of treatment groups to obtain serum containing the drug. The dose was 10 times of dose per kg per day for adults in 2 divided doses for 6 consecutive days, while the same volume of 0.9% NaCl was given to the rats of non-treatment groups. on the 7th day, the routine dose was orally given again; the blood sample was drawn from the vena cava after 2 hour; the serum was isolated and inactivated with water bath at 56℃; finally, the serum was filtered to eliminate bacteria. Just before using the serum, RPMI-1640 culture medium was added to prepare culture media of 10% drug-containing serum, which was incubated with the subcultured HSCs. The experiment was divided into the following groups: A: serum of extracted from normal rats; B: medicated serum of RSM extracted from normal rats; C: serum from CCl_4-induced liver fibrosis rats; D: medicated serum of RSM extracted from CCl_4-induced liver fibrosis rats.After 24h incubation with above every group serum which were added blindly to HSCs, P-ERK and P-JNK were detected by Western blot respectively. Results Both RSM Pharmacological serums decreased P-ERK and P-JNK in HSCs significantly compared with controls (P

BACKGROUND: Special anatomical location makes eye lens expose to stressful situation in a long term. Whether the environmental stress can up-regulate the expression of heat shock proteins in human lens epithelial cells? Whether the synthesis increase occurs in the level of trenscdption or translation, remains unclear.OBJECTIVE: To observe the expression and location of heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) in human lens epithelial cells under the conditions of high temperature and oxidative stress, and to investigate the pathogenesis of the cataract.METHODS: Human lens epithelial cells cultured in vitro were exposed to heat (45 ℃) and oxidative stress (50 mmol/L H_2O_2) for 30 minutes, respectively, then allowed to recover normal conditions. At different intervals (0, 2, 4, 6, 16, 24 hours),immunocytochemistry and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction were used to determine the expression and localization of HSP27.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: HSP27 was shown to express in both physiological and stressful conditions. The expressions of HSP27 mRNA and protein ware remarkably increased at 2 hours following heat and oxidative stress, and reached the peak at 6 hours. HSP27 could maintain a high level for 16 hours. The stress-induced HSP27 protein positive particles transferred from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, and gradually shift back to the cytoplasm along time. It is proved that HSP27 exists in lens epithelial cells and can be increased after stress. The data suggested it may play an important protective role in lens epithelial cells in respond to cellular stress.

Objective To study the application effect of clinical pathway teaching in respiratory medicine. Methods Seventy clinical medical students of our department during 2007 to 2009 were randomly divided into two groups. The control group (35 students) was treated by traditional teaching ways, while the experimental group(35 students) was treated by clinical pathway teaching ways, with 5 to 6 students forming a small group. Teachers provided one copy of the CP version to each person in advance. Then progressive questions and discussions were conducted according to the diagnosis, dif-ferential diagnosis and treatment of CP. After its implementation for a certain time, students were co-mprehensively assessed by the practice examination and questionnaire and the statistical analysis was performed by using SPSS 17.0 version statistics software. Results The experimental group's total aver-age score was (90.00±4.00) points, while the control group's total average score was (76.00±7.20) points. There was significant difference between the two groups(P=0.001). The effect of these two kinds of teaching was evaluated and compared in stimulating interest in learning (P=0.002), improving the analytical ability(P=0.004),improving self-study ability(P=0.001), deepening the under-standing of the basic concepts(P=0.112), improving the innovation ability (P=0.005), improving the efficiency of learning(P=0.034), improving clinical comprehensive ability(P=0.016), and improving the ability of language expression(P=0.000), showing that teaching method of clinical pathway could significantly improve clinical teaching effect, and there was statistically significant difference between them. Conclusion Clinical pathway teaching has obvious advantages in cultivating students' diagnostic thinking and clin-ical ability to solve practical problems, and therefore it has better clinical teaching effect than the tra-ditional teaching method.

BACKGROUND:Whole body vibration training, a recently developed method of neuromuscular training, is a useful method to improve muscle strength and postural control in the elderly. Recently, researchers attempt to explore whether whole body vibration training can reduce motor dysfunction for stroke patients.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize clinical progress in whole body vibration treatment on stroke patients with limb motor dysfunction, including muscle strength of the affected limbs, muscle tension, balance and gait.
METHODPubMed, EBSCO, Medline database were searched for articles relate to whole body vibration training intervention for stroke patients with motor dysfunction published from January 2002 to June 2014. Final y, 34 articles were included in result analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Whole body vibration training is feasible and safe for stroke patients has the feasibility and safety. For therapeutic efficacy, we focus on the muscle strength, muscle tone, balance, posture control ability, but there is no sufficient evidence to support that the whole body vibration training can improve the motor dysfunction. There is also no recognized standard on specific intervention protocols, such as vibration type, treatment frequency, treatment amplitude, treatment time. Many researchers aim to observe the clinical curative effect at present, but rarely explore the intervention mechanism of the whole body vibration. Further large-sample, multi-center randomized control ed experiments are required to test the validity.

Objective: To study the clinic and pathological features of leukoplakia of the larynx, and reduce canceration rate. Method: Seventy-four postoperative patients of leukoplakia of the larynx were followed up for four years by telephone or clinic service. Result: None of eighteen cases of pure leukoplakia was recurrence. Fifty-six ca-ses were leukoplakia with epithelial dysplasia histologically. Seven out of fifty-six postoperative cases occurred hoarseness; three out of fifty-six postoperative cases recured, and accepted twice or more operations successively; three out of fifty-six postoperative cases occurred canceration. Conclusion:Operation is the main means for the treatment of leukoplakia of the larynx, and the effect is comparatively well. The patients with histological epitheli-al dysplasia should be pay great attention because of their higher canceration rate, and enlarged operation ranges appropriately with the patient consent could effectually prevent recurrence or canceration during the early lesions. Close observation is important for these patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of nutritional risk and perioperative nutritional support status in the gastrointestinal cancer surgical patients.Methods Adult inpatients from the gastrointestinal cancer surgery department of our hospital were consecutively enrolled from May to September 2010.Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 ( NRS 2002) was performed at admission,and data of the nutritional support and complications during hospitalization were collected.The relationship between nutritional risk and postoperative complications was analyzed.ResultsA total of 195 patients were eligible.At admission,43.6％ (85/195) patients were at riskOf the patients at risk,totally 11.7％ (10/85) patients received preoperative nutritional support,and 100％ (85/85) patients received postoperative nutritional support; of the patients not at risk,no patients received preoperative nutritional support,and 84.5％ (93/110) patients received postoperative nutritional support.The overall rates of postoperative complications were 19.1％ ( 13/68 ) in the patients at risk while 7.1％ (9/127 )in the patients not at risk ( P =0.02).ConclusionsNutritional risk in gastrointestinal cancer surgical patients was high.The application of nutritional support was inappropriate in these patients.The nutritional risk is associated with higher postoperative complications.Dissemination of evidence-based guidelines should be enhanced.
