0.05) . Time consumed for registration and waiting for consultation, average medical care cost, time consumed for dispensing prescription and average total patients' visit time except for diagnosis and treatment were significantly less in primary-care hospitals than those in secondary-care ones( P 0.05) . Conclusions Quality of medical care service process in primary and secondary-care hospitals was perceived good by the outpatients. In general, phenomena of long queues for registration, waiting for consultation, payment, getting drugs and short time for diagnosis and treatment in outpatient departments have been improved a little bit. Medical doctors in primary-care hospitals could provide medical care service as nearly the same as that in secondary-care ones, while time consumed for registration, waiting for consultation, payment and getting drugs, as well as for a total visit was much less in primary-care hospitals.

The morphological indexes of the Scuophularia ningpoensis seedlings including the longth, diameter and weight were measured, clustering analysis was used to set up the standard quality grading of seedlings of S. Ningpoensis by SPSS. Field experiment was carried out to measure the indicators of plants growth and development, the yield and the quality. The results showed that the growth and yield of class I seedlings were better than those of class II and III. The content of main active ingredients was affected barely by seedlings classification. To ensure the quality, class II seedlings or above should be used for plantation. The established quality classification standard of S. ningpoensis seedlings was scientific and feasible, and provides the basis for the standardized cultivation of S. ningpoensis.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 (PCSK9) level and the severity of angiographic coronary artery disease (CAD) in elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods The patients over the same period were divided into three groups:the elderly patients with AMI and T2DM (observation group, n=46), the elderly non diabetic patients with AMI (positive control group, n=34) and patients with chronic stable coronary heart disease (negative control group, n=33). The serum PCSK9 level was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent (ELISA) in three groups. The correlation between serum PCSK9 level and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), high sensitive C reactive protein (Hs-CRP) and Gensini score were analyzed. Results The levels of PCSK9, HbA1c, Hs-CRP and Gensini score showed a gradually increased tendency in negative control group, positive control group and observation group. Multiple comparison differences between groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). The serum PCSK9 level was positively correlated with Hs-CRP and Gensini score in observation group (P<0.05), and showed no correlation with HbA1c, TG, TC, LDL-C and HDL-C (P>0.05). Conclusion The serum level of PCSK9 is positive correlated with the severity of CAD, which can be used to determine the severity of coronary artery lesions in elderly patients with AMI complicated with T2DM.

Aim To establish ICR animal model with C6 glioma stem cells, to provide the ideal model for the further study of gli-oma stem cells in brain glioma model. Methods C6 glioma stem cell was cultured in vitro by suspension,and was identified with Nestin antibody. C6 stem cells of ICR mouse glioma model were used to investigate survival state and tumor volume in mice after the operation. HE staining and CD133 immunohistochemi-cal study were adopted to investigate the postoperative pathologi-cal changes in mice. Results The expression of Nestin was 96. 01% in C6 glioma stem cells, and Nestin was highly ex-pressed in the cultured C6 glioma stem cells. Mice were inocula-ted with tumor after loss of appetite, weight, behavior and slow, sluggish reaction. Tumor volume at day 21 after modeling was (9. 77 ± 6. 58) mm3 . After HE staining, the model showed the invasive growth, tumor cell shrinkage and derangement. Immu-nohistochemical CD133 staining revealed that tumor cytoplasm color was brown. Conclusion Glioma model can be established based on glioma stem cells into a high rate of tumor, the tumor cycle is short, which can be used as an ideal model for glioma.

Objective Investigating the relationship between the incidence of Primary Acute Cerebral Infarction (PACI) and seasonal variation to employ measures to prevent PACI with climate change. Methods A retrospective analysis of patients diagnosed with PACI between 2009 and 2013 in the department of Neurology of Second hospital of Tian Jin Medi-cal University (n=1 198 patients) was carried out. Combined with the general clinical data, we analyzed seasonal, monthly and weekly variation among PACI incidents. Results The incidence of PACI increases over years between 2009 to 2013 (P < 0.01). Significant difference of incidents of PACI was observed between each season (P=0.047). Incidence of PACI peaked in winter(30.33 ± 9.63/month), while bottomed in spring(21.83 ± 5.36/month). Significant difference of incidents of PACI was also observed between each months(P=0.010). The monthly incidence was highest in January and February (33.25 ± 9.62/month)and lowest in March and April(20.75 ± 4.89/month). The seasonal variation was only found in the pa-tients who are complicated with pulmonary infection (P<0.01) regardless of the presence or absence of other risk factors, such as smoking, drinking ,hypertension, coronary heart disease, and diabetes mellitus. The weekly variation of PACI was on-ly significant in patients younger than 65 years old(P=0.043). The peak incidence among a week was Monday(17.86%),and incidence bottomed on Friday (13.36%). Conclusion Our study revealed that the incidence of PACI increase over year be-tween 2009 to 2013 and it shew a characteristic variation with respect to season, month and week. Based on these results, we can formulate prevention measures accordingly.
