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.

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 risk factors of multiple drug resistant bacterial infections in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and provide guidance for disease control and prevention. Methods Clinical data of 814 COPD patients were retrospectively analyzed from June 2011 to May 2015, including patient's age, gender, smoking history, age of onset, severity, aggravated frequency, duration of exacerbations, diabetes mellitus, complications, use frequency and use duration of glucocorticoid, use frequency of antimicrobial agents and use duration of each time, types of antimicrobial drugs used, combined with antibacterial drugs, plasma albumin concentration, blood glucose, bacteria culture detection of multi drug resistant bacteria infection. The risk factors of multi drug resistant bacteria infection were analyzed. Results A total of 857 pathogenic bacteria were isolated from 814 COPD patients with pulmonary infection. Multiple drug resistant bacteria infection were detected in 170 cases, and 175 strains (20.42%) were detected. The detection rate of multi drug resistant/PAN resistant pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDR/PDR-PA) was 55.38% (36/65). There were significant differences in patients with multi drug resistant bacteria infection between different clinical pathological characteristics. Logistic regression analysis showed that the acute exacerbation duration (days), long time use of antimicrobial drugs, and high frequency of corticosteroids and antibiotics use were independent risk factor of multi drug resistant bacteria infection in COPD patients. Conclusion Prevention and treatment of multiple drug resistant bacteria infection in COPD patients should pay attention to the combination of community and hospital, and take effective measures to prevent and control the risk factors.

Objective To investigate the effect of different concentrations of dexmedetomidine on the apoptosis of hippocampal neurons in neonatal rat induced by propofol in vitro. Methods Hippocampal neurons of primary cultured neonatal SD rat were divided randomly into three groups. Group C (control group)was normal cultured without any treatment for 12 h; group P (Propofol group)was incubated with 12 μg/mL propofol for 12 h and group DP (Dexmedetomidine + propofol group)was incubated with 0.002 5 ~ 25 μg/mL dexmedetomidine for 30 min, and then further incubated with 12 μg/mL propofol for 12 h. Results Compared with that of group C, the apoptosis rate of hippocampal neurons increased in group P and DP (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01); Compared with that of group P, the apoptosis rate of neurons decreased with the increase of dexmedetomidine concentration in group DP (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The result of transmission electron microscope indicated that compared with group C , group P showed obvious neuronal damage; the nerve cells damage alleviated in group DP, which were negatively associated with the concentration. Conclusions With the concentration ranging from 0.002 5 to 25 μg/mL, dexmedetomidine set pre-incubation and breeding can reduce apoptosis of hippocampus neuron of neonatal rats induced by propofol and the effect is concentration dependent.
