The author expounds his views on some queries about the integrated management of rural health services. ①The prospective goal of the integrated management is not to solve problems in the internal reform of township public health centers, but to implement management of health services at the village level, a goal that can be attained. ②The structure of property rights of rural health institutions ought not to become the criterion of rural health reform; what should become the criterion ought to be the establishment of safe, effective, comprehensive, and non profitable health services. ③Concrete analyses should be made regarding the increase of charges for medical services after the integrated management. ④The integrated management means management based on integration, the latter being an indispensable means of the former. ⑤Perfection of the integrated management needs to go through a process.

The main factor is the number of patients, which predicted by least square method to reduce the deviation. The like equipments located nearby are also considered and the Shared Coefficient is proposed.

Liver cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide and the third leading cause of cancer death.Partial hepatectomy and liver transplantation are the most effective therapies.However, postoperative tumor metastasis and recurrence are the main obstacles in the long-term survival.Liver cancer stem cells (LCSCs) within cancer tissues are associated with tumor occurrence, proliferation and tolerance to current therapy and are regarded as the major root of metastasis and recurrence.Eradication of LCSCs is a novel therapy of liver cancer.In this review, surface markers of LCSCs and mechanisms of pro-metastasis and recurrence, circulating LCSCs,microenvironment of LCSCs and their roles in the metastasis and relapse are summarized.

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is a newly-developed noninvasive technique recently. Being a safe, non-radioactive and reproducible therapy, high-intensity focused ultrasound has been extensively used in the clinical treatment for a variety of solid tumors such as uterine adenomyosis. This paper aims to make a comprehensive review about this technique, focusing on the mechanism, clinical indications and contraindications, safety, efficacy and the complications of HIFU for the treatment of uterine adenomyosis.

In order to study the physiological action of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in intact animal, an animal model of GR depletion was developed in the rat by mifepristone (RU486), an antagonist of GR. Mifepristone 50 mg/kg body weight mixed in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was injected intramuscularly every 12 h in order to maintain the plasma mifepristone at the concentration of about 10-6mol/L for 72 h. In the meanwhile, the plasma corticosterone (B) was stabilized at about 15 ?g/dl by unilateral adrenalectomy 3 d before. In this model mifepristone occupied 88.1 ?10.7% of the total GR in hepatic, brain cytosol and thymocytes as measured by the exchange assay with [3H]dexamethasone (Dex) as ligand. Some indexes of glucocorticoid response were measured in the control, model and bilateral adrenalectomized (AdxT) rats. The polymorphonuclear eosinophil leukocyte (PME) count in blood and phospholipase A2(PLA2) activity in serum were decreased and tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT) activity of the liver was elevated in the control rats after stress provoked by epinephrine, but these changes were reversed in the model rats as well as in the AdxT rats. Thus it may be concluded that decrease of GR to about 12% may result in adrenoglucocorticoid insufficiency in spite of the normal functioning adrenal gland and high plasma level of B. So far as we know this is the first success to produce experimental endocrine insufficiency in a receptor depletion animal model and to quantitate the occupational threshold of about 12% of the total GR in rats.

[Objective] To review the treatment of metabolic syndrome from phlegm and stasis, so as to provide effective ideas for the treatment of metabol-ic syndrome.[Method] Through searching for literatures related to Chinese medicine treatment of metabolic syndrome in the last decade, we can summarize the role of phlegm and blood stasis in the metabolic syndrome and its relationship with various components of metabolic syndrome. We can also research the application of the resolving the phlegm and removing blood stasis in the metabolic syndrome. [Results] Phlegm, blood stasis consistently run through the metabolic syndrome, and have a close relationship with each component of metabolic syndrome. The prescription of resolving the phlegm and remov-ing blood stasis can not only improve the clinical symptoms, but also can improve obesity-related indicators, reduce blood glucose, increase insulin sensitiv-ity, improve endothelial function and so on. [Conclusion] Treating metabolic syndrome from phlegm and stasis is safe and effective, which can reverse dia-betes, insulin resistance and prevent cardiovascular events through multi-channel, multi-level, multi-target. It has a broad application prospect and is worth further in-depth study.

Objective To discuss the effects of Danshen Chuanxiongqin injection on oxidative stress and cardiac function in patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI. Methods A total of 84 patients with acute myocardial infarction underwent PCI treatment, patients were randomly divided into control group and observation group. The two groups received oral clopidogrel and aspirin before operation, and two prevention and treatment of myocardial infarction were given after operation. The treatment group was treated with Danshen Chuanxiongqin injection on the basis of the control group.The two groups were detected with superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO), cardiac troponin I (TnT), creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB), plasma brain natriuretic peptide (brain natriuretic, peptide, BNP) level in PCI after surgery before and after PIC 12 and PIC after 7 days.The left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) and ejection fraction (LVEF) were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results Postoperative 12h, two groups of indicators were elevated. After the treatment of 7D, the treatment group MDA, TnT, CK-MB, BNP, significantly lower than the control group, SOD, NO, higher than the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Heart color index, LVEDD and LVEF were improved in the two groups, but there was no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion Danshen Chuanxiongqin injection can effectively scavenge free radicals, inhibit oxidative stress, alleviate inflammation and improve ischemia-reperfusion injury and cardiac function in patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI.

Objective To investigate the role of platelet-derived growth factor-β receptor (PDGFR-β) in self-renewal of neural stem cells (NSCs).Methods In this study,NSCs of subventricular zone were isolated and cultured from PDGFR-β knockout (PDGFR-β-/-) mice of postnatal day 1 (P1) and P28;the number and diameters of secondary neurospheres were calculated;using 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation assay and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay,cell proliferation and survival rates were analyzed;gene expression profiles were determined by PCR-array analyses;the effect of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on secondary neurospheres formation was examined in these cells.Results In PDGFR-β-/-NSCs,stem cell activities,such as number (/well;P1:25.9±1.3vs117.6±3.6,t=4.236,P＜0.01;P28:13.8± 0.7vs 19.8±0.6,t=2.116,P＜0.01)and diameters (μm;P1:67.7±1.9 vs 69.1 ±2.0,t=3.211,P＜0.01;P28:33.4±0.8vs37.8±0.8,t=2.354,P ＜0.01) of secondary neurospheres,cell proliferation (％;P1:73.3 ± 2.7 vs 88.7 ± 3.6,t =2.773,P ＜ 0.05;P28:28.6 ± 9.6 vs 68.2 ± 4.5,t =6.302,P ＜ 0.05) and survival rates (％;P1:14.5 ±2.1 vs 9.3 ± 1.3,t =7.222,P ＜ 0.05),were significantly lower as compared with age-matched controls.In comparison of the same genotypic NSCs,the decrease of secondary neurosphere formation was more striking in P28 NSCs than in P1 NSCs.PCR Array analyses demonstrated that expressions of fibroblast growth factor2 and BDNF were decreased (-2.04 ± 0.25,t =2.653,P ＜ 0.05;-3.24 ± 0.37,t =1.324,P ＜ 0.05),and Noggin (2.31 ± 0.37,t =2.749,P ＜ 0.05) was increased in P1 PDGFR-β-/-NSCs as compared with P1 controls.Addition of BDNF rescued the number and diameter of secondary neurospheres in P1 PDGFR-β-/-NSCs to similar levels as controls.Conclusions PDGFR-β signaling may play a role in the selfrenewal and proliferation of NSCs.BDNF may be involved in the effects of PDGFR-β signaling in these cells.
