ObjectiveTo identify the main problems and provide information for making plans on medical resources allocation by analyzing the dynamic trends of medical resources allocation and service efficiency in Guangzhou after reform and opening-up. MethodsDescriptive analysis, Ascend and Descend Trends Test and ratio analysis were used to compare medical resource allocation and utilization efficiency at different development phases. ResultsCurrently health resources per capita in Guangzhou are close to those in developed countries or areas, but relative shortage derived from demand-driven increase still exists. There is a central tendency toward big comprehensive hospitals, the quality of medical resources is rather low, and efficiency of medical services tends to descend. ConclusionIt showed that when the government making plans on medical resources allocation, strict entry regulation should be reinforced, the standard of medical resource quality should be improved, appropriate space should be left for further development. Medical resources should be directed to reallocate to communities and rural areas in a right way, medical service efficiency and accessibility should be improved.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathologic and immunohistochemicalcharacteristics of primary squamous cell carcinoma of the breast(PSCCB). Methods Sixteen patients with primary squamous cell carcinoma of the breast were retrospectively reviewed. Twelve cases with a follow-up information were evaluated for ER, PR, C-erbB-2, HCK, Ki-67 expression. Results PSCCB is a very rare neoplasm,constituting 0.8 % of all breast carcinoma over 28 years(1981-2008) in our hospital. The patients age varied from 25 to 72, median age is 49 years old. All patients received operative treatment. Seven patients had metastatic disease in axillary lymph nodes. Three patients died from metastases and tumour recurrence.Tumors were usually ER-negative, but most cases showed high molecular cytokeratin (HCK) expression.Conclusion In terms of the clinical feature, there were no differences between the PSCCB and the other breast cancer. PSCCB could be confirmed by pathology. The prognosis is in controversial. Standard therapy should be studied and recommended in future.

ObjectiveTo study the expression and significance of NDRG1(N-myc downstream regulated gene-1), p53 and VEGF in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). MethodsNDRG1, p53 and VEGF protein were detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC, SP method) in 20 cases of normal esophageal squamous epithelium and 78 cases of ESCC.ResultsThe results of IHC shows that in normal esophageal squamous epithelium and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,the positive rate of NDRG1 was 100.0 %(20/20) and 55.1% (43/78) respectively, p53 was 0 (0/20) and 65.4 % (51/78) respectively, VEGF was 30.0 %(6/20)and 67.9 %(53/78)respectively,all had statistical significance.There was inverse correlationof NDRG1 expression and lymphatic invasion(r =-0.237,P = 0.036).However expression of NDRG1 was no statistical significance with patient' s age,gender,grade,TNM stage,patient' s five year survival.The expression of p53 was inverse correlated with NDRG1,and the expression of VEGF was inverse correlated with NDRG1 (r =-0.331, P = 0.003). ConclusionNDRG1 may be a new tumor suppress gene and play an important role in the development and metastasis of ESCC.

Objective:To identify enolase,47 kD allergen,from Litopenaeus vannamei by Mass spectrometry. Methods: The proteins were extracted from Litopenaeus vannamei tissue with acetone precipitation method. The protein components were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. By using Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization time of flight mass spectrometry ( MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS) ,the 47 kD allergen from Litopenaeus vannamei was identified as enolase. Results:By SDS-PAGE,we proved that the native protein components from Litopenaeus vannamei were completely. According to the Western blot result more than 14 components could react with the positive serum. MALDI-TOF/TOF analysis results showed that the suspected proteins were enolase. A sensitization frequency was 55%. Conclusion:Enolase was identified as a new allergen of Litopenaeus vannamei.

Objective: By the bibliometrical analysis and evaluation of acupuncture theses on auricular acupoint sticking from 2005 to 2014, the analysis was processed from multiple aspects including the types and numbers of diseases and effective rates of various diseases, in order to objectively reflect the general situation of clinical application of ear point embedding method in the recent years. Methods: By the bibliometrical analysis, the literature on auricular acupoint sticking in the recent ten years was counted up, analyzed and categorized. Results and Conclusion: Auricular acupoint sticking is used clinically for diseases of 16 systems, including 130 diseases. 74 diseases were singularly treated with auricular acupoint sticking, including the advantageous disease category like insomnia, constipation and obesity, and secondary advantageous disease category like dysmenorrhea, myopia, allergic rhinitis, post-operative pain and acne vulgaris.

Objective To discuss the expressions and clinicopathologic significances of insulin-like growth factor Ⅱ mRNA binding protein 3 (IMP3)in squamous intraepithelial lesion (SIL)and cervical squa-mous cell carcinoma (CSCC)before and after the therapy of radiation and chemotherapy.Methods The expressions of IMP3 in 80 cases of CSCC,90 cases of SIL (60 cases of HSIL,30 cases of LSIL)and 30 cases of cervicitis were detected by immunobistochemistry.The relations between IMP3 and clinicopathological cha-racteristics of CSCC were analyzed.Results The expression rates of IMP3 in CSCC,HSIL,LSIL and cervici-tis were 86.3%(69 /80),78.3%(47 /60),33.3%(10 /30)and 0(0 /30),and the difference among the four groups was statistically signicant (χ2 =87.01,P <0.01).The positive expression rate of IMP3 declined by radiation or chemotherapy (60.0% vs.85.0%,χ2 =5.79,P =0.013).The expression of IMP3 was related with lymph node metastasis (χ2 =3.97,P =0.046),differentiated degree (χ2 =5.95,P =0.018),clinical stage (χ2 =5.82,P =0.016)and invasion depth (χ2 =5.73,P =0.017).There was nothing to do with age (χ2 =0.11,P =0.745).Conclusion IMP3 expresses excessively in CSCC,and is associated with pathologi-cal grade and invasion progress.Radio-chemotherapy can reduce the expression of IMP3.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the assessment indicators of the accessibility of essential medicines to comprehensively evaluate the accessibility of essential medicinesand its coverage of medicine supply security and service quality and the improve-ment of the implementation of the new Healthcare reform. METHODS:Retrieved from Chinese and English Literature and the World Health Organization(WHO),theoretical analysis was conducted for the covering the core elements of essential medicines to explore construction ideas and content of essential medicines evaluation index system with international suitability,index appropri-ateness and operability. RESULTS&CONCLUSIONS:A series of medicine policy evaluation guide established by WHO is current-ly the main basis of the accessibility of essential medicines evaluation around the world,however,there are certain limitations for these indicators.According to the concept put forward by WHO and the related organizations,the core elements of the accessibility of essential medicines include:availability,affordability,supply system,sustainable financing,medicine quality and appropriate use.
