Through study on Bianque Shenying Zhenjiu Yulong Jing (Bianque's Classic of Effective Acupuncture Prescriptions), acupuncture experiences and ideology of WANG Guo-rui, an acupuncture physician of the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), is discussed in this article. Inherited and carried forward DOU's acupuncture theory, WANG Guo-rui encouraged to use experiential points and to expand extra points. Penetrating needling method was created, and the application of acupoints according to needling opportunities and seasonal factors were enriched by him. Great importance was also attached on treatment according to differentiation of syndromes, which including the simultaneous acupuncture and moxibustion, simultaneous reinforcing and reducing, reducing after reinforcing, reinforcing after reducing, predomination of reducing and predomination of reinforcing. The flexible treating methods are still extensively adopted in clinic nowadays. WANG Guo-rui is a master of clinical acupuncture who made great contribution to the development of acupuncture and moxibustion.

Objective To investigate chromosomal gains and losses in association with human papillomavirus status in the vulvar squamous cell carcinomas(VSCC). Methods We analyzed 21 VSCC with comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) and polymerase chain reaction.Results Each case had different degree of variances, including gains and losses of partial or whole chromosome. On average, each case had 4.9(102/21) abnormal regions; losses were more than gains, being respectively 2.6(54/21) and 2.3(48/21). Main variations were gains on chromosomes 3q(43%,9/21),8q(38%,8/21),12q(33%, 7/21 )and 9p(19%,4/21),and losses of 4p(52%,11/21),3p(43%,9/21)and 9p(10%,2/21).Gains of 3q(73%) and 12q(64%) were significantly more common in human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive VSCC compared to HPV-negative VSCC(10%,0;P

Objective To examine the relationship between plasma soluble interleukin 2 receptor(sIL2R), bone metabolism markers, and bone mineral densities in female patients with Graves′ disease(GD), and to explore the role of sIL2R in bone metabolism of GD.Methods This study included 201 female GD patients.FT3, FT4, TSH, PTH, osteocalcin(OCN), C-terminal telopeptides of type Ⅰ collagen (CTX), procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide(PINP), and 25-(OH)-vitamin D(25OHD) were measured using electrochemical luminescence technique.sIL2R was measured using chemiluminescence method.All pations underwent examinations of bone mineral densities at lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck(LS-BMD, TH-BMD, and FN-BMD).The associations of sIL2R with bone metabolism markers and bone mineral densities were analyzed.Results OCN,CTX,PINP gradually decreased across the tertile groups of LS-BMD, TH-BMD, FN-BMD(all P<0.05).FT3, sIL2R gradually increased across the tertile groups of OCN, CTX, PINP(all P<0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that sIL2R was independently associated with OCN and CTX(both P<0.05).Conclusion The increase of bone turnover leads to bone loss in female GD patients.The plasma level of sIL2R was positively correlated to bone turnover, which indicated that sIL2R may play an important role in bone metabolism of GD.

BackgroundLaser peripheral iridotomy(LPI) can break the pupillary block,and is an effective method of treating acute primary angle closure (APAC).However,a part of APAC eyes may gradually develop a formation and extension of peripheral anterior synechia(PAS) and increased intraocular pressure(IOP) after LPI.ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between appositional angle closure and darkroom provocative test(DRPT) in the fellow eyes with APAC after LPI.Methods Fellow eyes of APAC without PAS after LPI were studied.Ultrasounic biomicroscopy(UBM) were performed in darkness to observe whether appositional angle closure occurred and compare the relationship between the quadrants with appositional angle closure and the results of DRPT.Results Fifty-four patients were included in the study.Appositional angle closure was observed in at least one quadrant in 20(37.0％ ) of the 54 fellow eyes with APAC after LPI.Fifty-one patients were given DRPT and positive result in 9 patients( 17.6％ ).According to the quadrants with appositional angle closure,there were 5 patients with DRPT positive results in 46 patients with appositional angle closure 0 to 2 quadrants,and 4 patients with DRPT positive results in 5 patients with appositional angle closure 3 to 4 quadrants ( P =0.003 ).Bivariate correlation analysis indicated a positive correlation between the value of the increased IOP in DRPT and the number of quadrants with appositional angle closure in darkness( r =0.397,P =0.004).ConclusionsA certain proportional fellow eyes of APAC appeared appositional angle closure in darkness and DRPT positive result after LPI.The more the quadrants of appositional angle closure after LPI,the greater the likelihood of a positive DRPT.It suggests that the APAC fellow eyes and attack eyes with the same anatomical configuration still have the possibility of angle closure after LPI,and need follow-up and treatment for a long time.

Objective To analyze the present situation about early screening of developmental dysplasia of the hip( DDH) of infants in Shapingba district of Chongqing,and to explore the methods to improve the rate of diagnosis about DDH. Methods A total of 2 066 infants among 0~6 months old living in Shapingba district of Chongqing,were examined with clinical and ultrasound method on hip. Results Six infants with DDH were discovered among the 2 066 infants,which was more common in the female baby. The deficiency of hospital in which can exam hip with ultrasound method and the deficiency about DDH were the significant factors affecting the low detection rate. Conclusion Necessary measure must be taken to improve the low detection rate of DDH.

Objective To explore the impact of environment factors and social economic factors(environment interference factors for short)and control measures on the endemic status of schistosomiasis in Poyang Lake Eco?economic Region. Meth?ods The grey relational analysis model was applied to analyze the relationships between the key indexes of schistosomiasis epi?demic status and the environment interference factors and control measures in Jiujiang City of Poyang Lake Eco?economic Re?gion. Results Six environment factors,which included the annual average water level of Poyang Lake,average annual tempera?ture,storm frequency,annual average relative humidity,annual sunshine duration,and annual precipitation,had the most closed relationship with the indexes of schistosomiasis epidemic status(all ri>0.9). Among the socioeconomic factors,the num?ber of health technicians and beds of health facilities were most associated with the indexes of schistosomiasis epidemic status. Among the control measures of schistosomiasis,the number of cattle treated with extending chemotherapy,chemically killing of Oncomelania hupensis snails and eco?renovation were most associated with the indexes of schistosomiasis epidemic status. Con?clusion The various environment interference factors and their interaction should be considered in formulating the comprehen?sive control strategy for schistosomiasis,and the control strategy should be adjusted according to the epidemic dynamic and schistosomiasis?focused targets,so as to further strengthen the scientificity and validity of the control strategy.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of 2 kinds of fiber posts with different optical conductivity on the polymerization of resin cement in deep root canal.Methods:16 human premolars with single root were decoronated and randomly divided into 2 groups(n=8),which were restored using fiber posts with and without optical conductivity(i-TFC optical fiber post and Panavia post) respectively.Fiber posts were luted with light-curing resin cement and light cured.3 dentin slabs with fiber posts located at cervical,middle and apical 1/3 were harvested from each root.Knoop microhardness(HK) of the resin cement in each slab was measured using microindentation and the relative curing rate (RCR) was also examined,data were submitted to two-way ANOVA.Results:As the depth in the canal increased,the HK and RCR of the resin cement was decreased in both groups.At the cervical and middle 1/3 HK and RCR were not statistically different between the 2 groups(P＞0.05).At the apical 1/3 of the optical and Panavia group,the RCR of the resin cement was 69.89％ and 50.05％ (P＜0.05),the HK was 33.25 ± 3.04 and 23.08 ± 5.93 (P＜0.05),respectively.Conclusion:The optical fiber post is useful in promoting the polymerization of the resin cement in deep root canal.
