The accelerating pace of exchanges and cooperation in medical field between China and foreign countries demands a large number of medical papers, medical-related materials to be ac-curately translated into multiple languages , especially between English and Chinese . Oriented at English majors (medicine directed), based on eco-translatory approach and student-centered teaching method by creating simulations of the medical English ecological translation environment, this paper provided a better and effective practice-based teaching idea, which can promote students' medical English translation competence and strategies, even cultural consciousness and pragmatic ability in a comprehensive manner.

The bystander effect(BE) plays an important role in the gene therapy of cancer by the herpes thymidine kinase/ganciclovir(HSV-TK/GCV) system.It enhances the therapeutic efficacy of this system.Up to now,the exact underlying mechanism of the bystander effect remains unclear.A large body of evidence has indicated a close correlation of the connexin expression and gap junction in the targeted cells to the bystander effect.Here the publications concerning the relationship of gap junction with the bystander effect in the HSV-TK/GCV treatment have been reviewed.The possible cell death signals that can be transferred through gap junction to induce the bystander effect are also discussed.

Objective To study the adsorbability of active carbon fiber(ACF) for gaseous benzene and to use ACF for the determination of benzene in the air in future.Methods The adsorbability of ACF was investigated and the results were compared with that of granular active carbon(GAC).Results The adsorption efficiency of ACF was 93%,the selective adsorbability was 94.28%,the saturation adsorption capacity of gaseous benzene was 25%,as for GAC,they were 88%,88.57% and 12% respectively.Conclusion ACF is better than GAC in the adsorption efficiency of benzene in the condition of low concentration and long time sampling.

Objective To compare the differences of atria and atrial myocyte structure in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and sinus rhythm(SR) .To evaluate the influence of AF on cardiac function .Methods 79 patients without heart failure undergoing car-diopulmonary bypass surgery were divided into the AF group (n=39) and the SR group(n=40) .Echocardiography was performed for analysis of left ventricular end diastolic dimension(LVDd) ,left ventricular end-systolic dimension(LVDs) ,left ventricular poste-rior wall(LVPW) ,interventricular septum(IVS) and left atrial diameter(LAD) .Part of left atrial appendages was taken freshly for HE staining in order to observe atrial tissue structure .Results LVDd ,LVDs ,LVPW and IVS of the AF group were lower than that of the SR group .But LAD of the AF group was higher than the SR group .There was statistical significance in IVS and LAD between the two groups(P<0 .05) ,and there were no significant differences in other aspects (P>0 .05) .Compared with the SR group ,the AF group had thinner myocardial atrophy ,more obvious fibrosis ,smaller nucleus and darker HE staining .Conclusion The incidence of AF was mainly in rheumatic heart disease .The development of AF was mostly accompanied with the enlargement of LAD and the change of atrial tissue structure which showed that AF can reduce cardiac function .

A new, convenient, and rapid method for kinetic measurement of human fibrinolysis was established. The alteration of absorbance (A) in the process of blood coagulation and lyses was automatically scanned and recorded using a UV2000 spectrophotometer connected to a computer. The parameters of human fibrinolysis kinetics were established. Urokinase at 20 U/mL was the optimal concentration used. There was significant difference in fibrinolysis kinetics and plasma plasminogen concentration between 22 normal subjects and 27 patients with acute myeloblastic leukemia (P<0.05 and <0.01 respectively). The coefficience of variation was (5.24+/-1.51)%. This method could also be used to measure the plasma fibrinogen concentration at the same time. It was concluded that this method was stable and was capable of providing dynamic, direct experimental data and multiparemeters for clinicians. It was also valuable in evaluating the anti-and pro-fibrinolytic capcity of patients' plasmas, allowing for monitoring of therapy, choice of drugs and adjustment of drug concentrations.

Objective:To investigate serum high sensitive C-reactive protein levels in type 2 diabetic patients with periodontal diseases,and to explore the relationship between serum high sensitive C-reactive protein levels and periodontal diseases in type 2 diabetic patients.Methods:The study included 20 type 2 diabetic patients with moderate or severe periodontal diseases,20 type 2 diabetic patients without periodontal diseases and 20 normal as control.Serum hs-CRP,HbA1c and other biochemical parameters were detected.Results:Compared with normal control and type 2 diabetic subjects without periodontal diseases,serum hs-CRP levels in type 2 diabetic patients with moderate or severe periodontal diseases were significantly increased.Serum hs-CRP levels were significantly elevated in type 2 diabetic patients without periodontal diseases compared with normal control subjects(P

Objective To explore the clinical value of transvaginal four-dimensional hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (TVS 4D-HyCoSy)in evaluation of the patency of fallopian tubes. Methods Totally 53 patients underwent SonoVue TVS4D-HyCoSy to observe the tubal patency. Results Among the 106 tubes in 53 patients, TVS 4D-HyCoSy showed 47 unobstructed tubes, 23 obstructed tubes, and 36 partially passable tubes. In unobstructed cases, the fallopian tubes were smooth and regular in morphology, and contrast agents flowed into and dispersed over pelvic cavity rapidly and evenly. In the cases of partially passable tube, fallopian tubes were discontinuous and irregular in morphology, and contrast agents lfowed into and dispersed over pelvic cavity slowly and unevenly. In obstructed cases, there were no or little contrast agents into the fallopian tubes. Compared with the results of laparoscopy, the diagnostic accuracy of TVS 4D-HyCoSy was 94.4%(17/18). Conclusions TVS 4D-HyCoSy is a useful tool in demonstrating the morphological features of fallopian tube, diagnosing intrauterinc adhesion and lesion and assessing the tubal patency.

Objective To Study wheather the endogenous arginine vasopressin(AVP)is involved in the effect of oxotremorine(a muscarinic receptor agonist)-induced hypothermic response.Methods Core temperature and motor activity were monitored in undisturbed rats using radiotelemetry.Effect of AVP V1 antagonist on oxotremorine(OXO)-induced changes in body temperature and motor activity were observed in the rats.Results Administration of OXO led to a marked hypothermia.Core temperature recovered to basal levels at 4 hours after OXO administration.AVP V1 antagonist blocked markedly the hypothermia effect of OXO.Conclusion The AVP V1-receptor antagonist block the hypothermic effect of OXO,which suggests that OXO-induced hypothermia is mediated by AVP releasing.

Objective To survey the knowledge requested by patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) after stent implantation.Methods A survey on CAD and stent-related knowledge requested by CAD patients with stent implantation was conducted with a self-designed questionnaire from September 2013 to November 2013.Total 362 patients (235 males and 127 females) aged (67 ± 12) years participated in the survey in Yuetan Community Health Service Center and Fuxing Hospital in Beijing.Open questions and heuristic questions were used together during the survey.Results The knowledge requested by patients were:diet management(255,70.4％),side effects of medication(241,66.6％),management of physical activity (221,61.0％),prevention of CAD(181,50.0％),withdrawal of medication(176,48.6％),the life of stents (168,46.4％),post-operation check-up items (162,44.8％),the causes of CAD (156,43.1％)and drug mechanisms(134,37.0％).Patients with stent implantation less than one year requested more knowledge about the cause of CAD (x2 =37.4,P ＜ 0.001),life-time of stent (x2 =39.9,P ＜0.001),prevention of CAD (x2 =13.4,P =0.001),post-operation check-up items (x2 =21.2,P =0.001) and requested less knowledge about withdrawal of medication (x2 =9.56,P =0.008),diet management (x2 =6.49,P =0.04) than those with more than one year.Patients aged ＜ 70 years requested more knowledge about the cause of CAD (x2 =31.6,P ＜ 0.001),prevention of CAD (x2 =9.99,P =0.007),life-time of stent (x2 =79.1,P ＜ 0.001),side effects of medication (x2 =7.84,P =0.02) than patients aged ＞ 70 years.Patients with education higher than junior high school requested more knowledge about the cause of CAD (x2 =26.6,P ＜ 0.001),prevention of CAD (x2 =14.4,P =0.001) and life-time of stents (x2 =7.82,P =0.02) than those with education lower than junior high school.Patients with education higher than junior college requested more knowledge about the cause of CAD (x2 =26.6,P ＜ 0.001) and post-operation check-up items (x2 =10.7,P =0.005) than those with education lower than junior college.Conclusion Some factors affect the knowledge requested by patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) after stent implantation,which should be considered in health education for CAD patients.
