Objective To assess the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture plus acupuncture point injection in treating carpal tunnel syndrome. Method Sixty-three patients with carpal tunnel syndrome were allocated, using a random number table, to a treatment group (32 cases) and a control group (31 cases). The treatment group received electroacupuncture plus acupuncture point injection and the control group, conventional acupuncture. One course of treatment was given. After treatment, the clinical therapeutic effects and the recurrence rates based on the symptoms and signs were compared between the two groups. Result The total efficacy rates in the treatment and control groups were 93.8% and 77.4%, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in clinical therapeutic effect between the two groups (P＜0.05). There was a statistically significant posttreatment difference in the recurrence rate between the two groups of patients (P＜0.05). Conclusion Electroacupuncture plus acupuncture point injection is easy to perform and has a good effect in treating carpal tunnel syndrome.

Objective To understand the training status and learning requirement of nursing personnel for the aged from the perspective of nursing targets and their relatives in the city of Nanjing.Methods The questionnaire involved six categories,80 questionnaires were sent out,57 of them were recollected.The effective recovery rate was 71.3％(57/80).All the data were input into Excel to do statistical analysis.Results The nursing personnel did not fully grasp the skills of transfusion nursing and muscle injection [45.6％(26/57) and 33.3％(19/57)] in the basic theory of basic care,knowledge and skills from the perspective of nursing targets and their relatives.The Chinese medicine nursing skills such as scrapping [needing very much 40.4％ (23/57)] and burying seeds [needing very much 40.4％ (23/57)] in the ear acupuncture point were also needed to be enhanced.A total of 75.4％ (43/57) of respondents chose online examination as the way of nursing personnel's evaluation.Conclusions Nursing personnel are in great need of on-job professional training.

Objective To investigate the effects of simultaneous hepatic artery and portal revaseularization on the expression of TNF-α during bile duet ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats liver transplantation.Methods Male Spragne-Dawley rats were used to establish an autologous orthotopic liver transphmtation model.Model rats were random divided two groups,simultaneous revascularization group(sroup P)and portal vein revascularization group(group N).The animals were separately killed at the 2nd hour,6th hour and 24th hour after reperfusion.Plasma samples were collected for ALT,AST,GGT,AKP,TBiL and DBiL test.Bile duct tissues were collected to detect the histolosical changes,MPO activit,and the expression of TNF-α mRNA.Results The serum levels of GGT in group P was significantly lower than that in group N at the 6th hour and 24th hour after reperfusion(P＜0.05).And the serum levels of AKP,TBiL and DBiL and the morphological scores of bile duct in group P were significantly lower than that in group N at the 24th hour after reperfusion(P＜0.05).The activity of MPO in group N was significantly higher than that in group P at the 6th hour after reperfusion(P＜0.05).Compared with group N,the expression of TNF-αmBNA was reduced significantly in group P at the 2nd hour and 6th hour after reperfusion(P＜0.05).Conclusion Simultaneaus hepatic artery and portal revascularization can alleviate I/R induced bile duct injury of rat liver grafts,and the protective mechanism may be asseciated with inhibition the expression of TNF-α and decrease of neutrophil infiltration.

Legal clinic education originating in the United States, aims at educating students on legal practical skills, and plays an positive role in cultivating students' ability of integrating theory with practice and training their various practical vocational skills. The present Chinese training mode of health law specialty does not perform very well in training students' practical ability, while legal clinic education can better make up for some deficiencies. Therefore, this paper learns from the experience of American universities in their legal clinic education, such as the particular division of specialties, the development of outside-school clinics, taking pre-training seriously, and the unique evaluation mechanism. Correspondingly, we explore to construct a set of reasonable legal clinic education system in health law specialty, including the orientation of legal clinics, the double training system inside and outside school, the construction of teaching staff and the establishment of evaluation mechanism.

Objective To investigate whether there is an inhibition of the human lung cancer cell line A549 induced by the culture supernatant of Toxoplasma gondii in vitro and the mechanism of the inhibition. Methods A549 cells 5 x 10~4mL~(-1) were cultured and harvested. The cells were treated for different hours with different concentrations of Toxoplasma gondii culture supernatant (the concentrations of tachyzoites were 4×10~7mL~(-1), 8 × 10~7mL~(-1), 16 ×10~7mL~(-1) respectively). Growth inhibition rate was measured with the MTT method; Cell cycle was checked with flow cytometer. Western blot was used to detect the level of cyclinBl and cdc2 of cells. Results The culture supernatants of Toxoplasma gondii inhibited proliferation of A549 cells in a time-dose dependent manner. Cell cycle was significantly stopped at G_2/M phase by the culture supernatants with FCM technology. The culture supernatant of Toxoplasma gondii reduced the expressions of gene cyclinBl and cdc2 of A549 cells. Conclusion The culture supernatant of Toxoplasma gondii may inhibit A549 cell and arrest the cell cycle of A549 cells mainly by regulating the expression of gene cyclinBl and cdc2.

Objective To investigate the effect of IH764-3 on the leukocyte-mediated hypoxia-reoxygention injury of human brain microvascular endothelial cell (HBM VEC). Methods MTT assay was used to detect the survival of HBMVEC; gelatin zymography was used to check the activity of MMPs. The level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in leukocyte was determined via commercially available kit, and the indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to quantify the contents of TNF-α, IL-1α, IL-2 and INF-γ in leukocyte culture medium. Results Survival of HBMVEC was impaired by hypoxia-reoxygenation, which was aggravated by supernatant of activated leukocytes but was attenuated by IH764-3. Leukocytes produced high level of MMP-9, ROS and cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1α, IL-2, IFN-γ) after hypoxia-reoxygenation, the process was inhibited by IH 764-3. Furthermore, IH764-3 could effectively reverse hypoxia-reoxygenation injury of HBMVEC with supernatant of activated leukocytes. Conclusion IH764-3 can protect HBMVEC from leukocyte-involved hypoxia-reoxygenation injury by attenuating the activation of leukocytes and inhibiting the pathogenic effects of leukocytes products.

Objective To investigate the effects of brain ischemic preconditioning (BIP) on peripheral blood EPCs and neovascularization in ischemic brain tissue in rats with cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI). Methods One hundred and eight male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups:SO group (n=36), MCAO group (n=36) and BIP group (n=36). Neurological function assessment was conducted at 0 h before MCAO-reperfusion, 3 h, 24 h and 3 d, 5 d as well as 7 d after MCAO-reperfusion (n=6 for each group in each time point). Flow cytometry was used to calculate the number of EPCs. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the capillary density. Results ①Although neurologi?cal deficit scores were significantly decreased in both BIP and MCAO groups after 3 h following MCAO-reperfusion, the scores were much lower in BIP group than in MCAO group(5 d:1.00±0.63;7 d:1.00±0.63, P<0.05).②The numbers of EPCs were decreased in MCAO group while was increased in BIP group at 3 h after MCAO-reperfusion. The numbers of EPCs were significantly higher in BIP group than in MCAO group(24 h:0.58±0.07;3 d:0.80±0.10;5 d:0.68±0.05;7 d:0.52 ± 0.03, P<0.01). ③ The new blood vessels could be detected at 3 d in BIP group and 5 d in MCAO group after MCAO-reperfusion. The numbers of new blood vessels were significantly higher in BIP group than MCAO group(5 d:14.53 ± 3.44; 7 d: 41.40 ± 5.62, P<0.01). ④ Pearson analysis showed a positive correlation between EPCs and capillary density (5 d: r=0.855, P<0.01; 7 d: r=0.946, P<0.01). Conclusion BIP can improve EPCs mobilization and function, which may contribute to neovascularization in the ischemic brain tissue.
