Glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) is a serine/threonine kinase.Several signaling pathways,such as growth factors and Wnts,inhibit the GSK3β activity,thereby it promotes cell survival At the time of cerebral ischemia,with the changes of the phosphorylated GSK3β level,its upstream and downstream phosphorylation levels also change.Ischemic preconditioning and postconditioning may induce cerebral ischemic tolerance by regulating the GSK3β signaling pathway.

Many countries have developed standard strategy under the tendency of the economic globalization.TCM international standardization faces more and more competitions.This article analyzes the competitors and competitive status of TCM international standardization by the research methods of competitive intelligence,competitor analysis and SWOT analysis,and puts forward corresponding strategic measures in details.

The severity of coronary artery diseases is assessed based on morphological and functional stenosis.The study Oil detection of coronary artery diseases based on morphological lesions has unveiled its short comings for evaluation of the seriousness of the disease.Therefore,many research groups diagnose the coronary artery diseases by functional stenosis.From functional aspect,studies of x-ray angiography algorithms for blood flow and velocity measurement are potentially clinically important and are an actively researched subject,which Can accurately diagnose the coronary diseases from functional stenosis aspect.Based on the angiographic images,the article describes formulation and characteristics of existing coronary blood flow and velocity techniques such as tracking and computational methods.Tracking methods can be divided into four classes:bolus transport time algorithms,continuous velocity determination from two-dimensional(time-distance)parametric images,contrast traversal distance algorithms,and droplet tracking algorithms.Computational methods can be divided into six classes:indicator-dilution or Stewart-Hamilton method,first-pass distribution analysis,inverted continuity equation algorithms,inverse mass transport problem approach,optical flow type algorithms,and the fluid continuity method.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of transvaginal hydrolaparoscopic pelvic adhesiolysis (THLPA) treatment in the infertile women.Methods From May 2007 to Sep.2008,30 infertile patients underwent THLPA.The dye-test,hysteroscopy,and dye-test using catheterization of tubal ostium by hysteroscopy were performed at the same time.Pelvic adhesions were scored according to the revised American Fertility Society classification of endometriosis (1985).The adhesions were graded as mild (score 1-9),moderate (10-19),and severe (≥20).Twenty-four cases were in mild adhesions,5 moderate adhesions,and 1 severe adhesion.The duration of the operation and discharge,pelvic adhesions score,tubal patency,complications,and pregnancy rate were investigated.Results (1) THPLA:the majority of pelvic adhesions in all patients were successfully performed adhesiolysis.Only a little filmy adhesions of proximal peritube of 7 tubes and proper ligament of 5 ovaries and cohesive adhesions of 4 ovaries did not underwent surgical lysis.(2) Tubal patency:35 tubes were of proximal occlusion by dye-test,of which 21 (60%,21/35) were unobstructed and 4 (11%,4/35) were partly unobstructed after the dye-test using catheterization of the tubal ostium by hysteroscopy.(3) The duration of operation:the overall operative time were (32±6) minutes in mild adhesion,(52± 6) minutes in moderate adhesion,and 83 minutes in severe adhesion.Of which the time of THLPA were (11±5) minutes in mild adhesion,(35±7)minutes in moderate adhesion,and 62 minutes in severe adhesion,respectively.(4)The duration of discharge:the postoperative discharge time was 120-175 minutes.No complications occurred.(5)The rate of pregnancy:in the (15.8±4.3) months' follow-up,the rate of pregnancy was 45% (13/29),which one patient lost follow-up.Conclusions THLPA is safe,efficacious and not being hospitalized management.When compared with laparoscopy,it is simpler,more economic,and less minimally invasive approach.The appropriate indication of THLPA is to treat filmy,especially mild pelvic adhesions.It could partly avoid transabdominal operative laparoscopy for the infertile women.

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is the commonest head and neck cancer in China and especially sensitive to both chemotherapy and radiotherapy. But radiotherapy alone has disappointing effect to local advanced cases. Nevertheless,chemoradiotherapy provides long term survival. This paper summarized the current status of the different ways of chemoradiotherapy such as induction,concurrent,adjuvant chemotherapy.

Adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity in pleural fluid from 81 patients was measured by colorime-tric method. Of these cases, 55 cases were tuberculous pleural effusion, 22 cases were malignant pleura! effusion and 4 cases were transudate pleural effusion.The mean ADA, activity in pleural fluid of tuberculous group was 188.3?58.2u and that of malignant group was 52. 2?15. 4u. Statistically the difference is highly significant (p0.05). In tuberculous group, pleural fluid ADA levels higher than 110u were found in 53. cases (96.3%), and those above 120u were found in 52 cases (94.5%), while no case in malignat group had the ADA level higher than 90u, and in 20 cases it is lower than 70u (20/22 cases, 90.9%). These data suggest that pleural fluid ADA activity may be a useful index in the differential diagnosis of tuberculous and malignant pleural effusions.

By using antr-ras P21 mouse monoclonal (MoAb), SCI-Oncogema 1, the authors examined immunohistochemica! staining in pancreatc adeocarcinoma. The percentage of positive staining was 24/43 (558%). Furthermore it was indicated that the positive staining rate of antr-ras P21 MoAb was related to either histopathological grade or clinical stage. Upon statistical analysis of the correlation between the staining of anti-ras P21 and patient prognosis with Kaplan-Meier curve and Log-rant test, the positive staining cases showed comparatively better prognosis than the negative ones. Our study suggests that ras P21 expression may be important in the early stage of pancreatic carcinoma.

This paper discussed the application of upper extremity rehabilitation devices in rehabilitation evaluation after stroke, focused on some typical kinds of upper extremity rehabilitation systems. It was analyzed that the way to obtain multiple parameter and evaluation indices during the progress of upper extremity rehabilitation evaluation, and viewed the development and application of upper extremity rehabilitation evaluation technology.

The single brain metastases of lung cancer is defined as limited brain metastases .Mechanism of brain metastasis from lung cancer remains to be further studied .Based on surgery ,radiotherapy ,and chemother-apy,the comprehensive treatment on limited brain metastasis of non -small cell lung cancer gets a better result , however ,the indications for combination therapy must be strictly controlled .Increasing radiation doses of local tumor area,followed by whole-brain radiotherapy,can improve tumor local control rate and prolong overall sur-vival.Prophylactic irradiation of whole brain showed no evidence on prolonging the overall survival .For patients with poor general state,targeted drugs combined with whole brain radiotherapy can be tolerated well ,as well as prolonged the overall survival to ertain extent .
