Objective To evaluate the quality of clinical trials about acupuncture and moxibustion treatment of vertebrobasilar insufficiency in China.Methods Literature of clinical trials of acupuncture was collected and analyzed,evaluated by the randomized controlled test criteria and the clinical assessing method in Cochrane handbook of international Cochrane cooperation net.Results Sixteen literatures were brought in.87.5% of the included literature had no clear description of random methods,and no allocation concealment,use of blind methods,sample size calculation,intention-to-treat analysis.Among them,62.5% had explicit diagnosis criteria,12.5% with correct randomizing method,62.5% with explicit evaluation criteria,however,31.22% with no words referring to the comparability among the groups.Conclusions Though acupuncture and moxibustion have been widely applied in prevention and treatment of vertebrobasilar insufficiency,it can not provide evidences of higher reliability for clinical treatment due to less clinical randomized controlled tests and lower quality,which severely hinder testing and verifying of clinical therapeutic effects of acupuncture and moxibustion.It is proposed that multiple central and randomized controlled test should be made,so as to search for feasible acupuncture and moxibustion methods with definite therapeutic effect for vertebrobasilar insufficiency,and provide basis for further systematical evaluation.

Objective To explore the hospitalization expenses and its related factors of injury cases in Shenzhen city in 2006,and to provide basis for the expense control in future.Methods The medical expense proportion was calculated on 7 180 injury cases with hospitalization data from Shenzhen injury surveillance system,ANOVA and multivariate regression analysis were used to determine the influencing factors for the expenses.Result The medical expenses of injury inpatients in Shenzhen were 3 835.65 RMB/case and 437.86 RMB/case/day.36.10% and 20.27% of the total expenses were attributed to medication and therapy,respectively.The expense per day was correlated strongly with the level of hospital,length of stay,age,method of payment and injury location.Conclusions The disease burden of injury was higher than that of other diseases,Hospitalization expenses can be effectively controlled by taking strategies,such as enhancing the care and treatment before hospitalization,shortening the duration of hospitalization,avoiding infection in hospital and so on.

Background and purpose:The most serious aspect of cancer is the emergence of metastases in organs distant from the primary tumor, since most deaths from cancer are due to metastases. In recent years, a series of studies has been undertaken both in vitro and in vivo, and demonstrated that the CD133+ hematopoietic stem cell is effective in increasing mice tumor cell metastases, but the efficacy of CD133+ stem cells is not well studied for human cancer.We investigated the effects of CD133+ stem cells on the proliferation, adhesion and migration in human colorectal neoplasm cell line SW480.Methods:CD133+ cells were separated from fresh cord blood mononuclear cells(MNC) by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation and magnetic activated cell-sorting system(MACS).The treatment group was the co-culture of CD133+ cells and SW480, the control group used the same culture medium without CD133+ cells. The effect of CD133+ cells on proliferation in SW480 cell was measured by MTT assay, the migration abilities of SW480 cell were assayed in Transwell cell culture, Cell adhesion assay was carried out in a 96 microplate well precoated with fibronection.Results:CD133+ cells could significantly improve the growth ability of SW480 cell, not only the ability of proliferation, but also the morphology. The morphology of the cells was remarkably changed. Irregular nucleus, double nucleus and polymorphic nucleus appeared in the treatment group, and the cells were shaped as polygon-like and leptosomatic. In the cell adhesion assay, A 490 of the treatment group was 0.11?0.01, A 490 of the control group was 0.05?0.01(P﹤0.05).Conclusions:Our results indicate that the CD133+ cell is effective in increasing tumor cell proliferation and invasion. Hematopoietic stem cell may play an important role in the invasion and metastasis of colorectal neoplasm.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics for new detecting cases of leprosy in 2012, in Yunnan Province, and provide clue and foundation for prevention and treatment in leprosy control. Methods The date of diagnosed leprosy patients in 2012 in Yunnan Province were collected and analyzed by disease reporting information system. Results 230 new cases were founded in 2012, and the discovery rate was 0.50/100 000. 4.35% of new cases were children, 64.35% of new cases were MB and 19.57% had grade 2 disability. 17 recurrent cases were founded in 2012,and 6 of them had received MDT. By the end of 2012, there were still 1084 present case in Yunnan Province,the prevalence rate was 0.24/10 000,and 485 of them need MDT. Conclusion The prevalence of leprosy was decreased,and the prevalence varies a lot in different regions. Honghe and Wenshan are still the focus regions. Leprosy is still a serious public health and social problem in Yunnan Province. In order to reduce the burden of leprosy and eliminate the leprosy danger, long-term financing investment and prevention are still needed.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of recombinant LIGHT-Fe gene on the proliferation of human esophageal carcinoma cell line Eea109. Methods LIGHT-Fc expression vector was transfected into human esophageal squamous carcinoma cell line Eca109 by using DOTAP liposomal transfection reagents. The effects of LIGHT-Fc gene on the proliferation of esophageal carcinoma cell line Eca109 in vitro were detected by cell growth curve and MTr assay. Forty-five nude mice were equally divided into Eea109/Wt group, Eca109/neo group and Eca109/LIGHT group. Carcinogenesis and pathological expression of the esophageal carcinoma tissues were observed. Results The expressions of LIGHT receptors were detected in Eca109 cells. The proliferation of Eca109 cells was inhibited after trasfecting LIGHT-Fc gene into Eca109 cells. The numbers of tumors generated in Eea109/Wt group, Eca109/neo group and Eca109/LIGHT group were 12, 11 and 5, with statistical significance between Eca109/LIGHT group and the other two groups (X2 =6.652, 4.821, P <0.05). The result of histopatholagical examination indicated that the tissue necrosis appeared significantly in tumors derived from Eea109/LIGHT cells. Conclusions The growth of esophageal squamous carcinoma cell line Eca109 can be suppressed by LIGHT-Fc gene whether in vitro or in vivo.
