The basic research and development of xeno-transplantation technique has been a new field. The article analyzed its current situation and problems, discussed the ethical problems the researchers and physicians faced, and raised a series of ethical principles which should be obeyed in xeno-transplantation, that is: stick to combining humanism and utilitarianism; observe the technological and sanitary criterion, choose the graft cautiously; Be attentive and loyal to the recipient's health; no harm and beneficial to the humankind. Besides, the article explored the importance of setting up laws and regulations about xeno-transplantation.

A large number of studies showed that hairy leukoplakia,pseudomembranous candidiasis,Kaposi' sarcoma,non-Hodgkin's lymphoma,linear gingival erythema,necrotizing ulcerative periodontitis and necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis were the most common lesions in patients with HIV infection and AIDS,and their higher prevalence and incidence rates correlated with the falling CD4 counts and higher virus load of the patients.The use of highly active antiretroviral therapy(HAART) was associated with decreases in the prevalence of oral diseases.Oral manifestations may represent early signs of AIDS di-sease and call attention to disease progression.Oral fluid has been shown to possess superior sensitivity for HIV antibody detection as serum.Abstract:SUMM ARY A large number of stud ies showed that hairy leukoplakia,pseudomembranous cand id iasis,decreases in the prevalence of oral d iseases.Oral manifestations may represent early signs of AIDS d i-sease and call attention to d isease progression.Oral fluid has been shown to possess superior sensitivity forHIV antibody detection as serum.Kaposi’sarcoma,non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma,linear gingival erythema,necrotizing ulcerative periodonti-tis and necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis were the most common lesions in patients with HIV infection and AIDS,and their higher prevalence and incidence rates correlated with the falling CD4 counts and higher virus load of the patients.The use of highly active antiretroviral therapy(HAART) was associated with

Objective To investigate the status of personality, family function and psychological resilience towards employed nurses, and to explore the relationship among personality, family function and psychological resilience. Methods Four instruments were applied to investigate 240 employed nurses from comprehensive Grade 3A hospital of Fujian Province, which were the Characteristics Questionnaire, Family Intimacy Scale (FACEⅡ-CV), Self-resilience Scale and Personality Traits Questionnaire. Results The correlation analysis showed that nurses′ personality traits, family functions and psychological resilience were closely related. The multiple regression and analysis showed that 40%of the variance for employed nurses′psychological resilience could be explained through considering personality dimensions, family cohesion and adaptability. Conclusions Personality, family functions and psychological resilience towards employed nurses are closely related as both internal and external protective factors.

Objective To investigate the effect of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) on cardiac function in children with pneumonia complicated with heart failure.Methods Twenty-two children with pneumonia complicated with heart failure were selected in emergency room of Beijing Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from Oct.2008 to Mar.2009,aged 1 month and 15 days to 2 years and 8 months,prospective clinical study.Cardiac function[including cardiac index(CI),heart rate(HR) and stroke volume index(SVI)] before and after NCPAP 0.04-0.05 kPa for 30 minutes were monitored by ultrasonic cardiac output monitoring(USCOM).Results After the application of 0.04-0.05 kPa NCPAP for 30 minutes,the heart rate decreased signi-ficantly [(173?10) beats/min vs (151?13) beats/min P0.05].Conclusions NCPAP might improve cardiac function by increasing stroke volume index and decreasing heart rate and respiratory rate in children with pneumonia complicated with heart failure.

Hypercholesterolemia and coronary heart disease caused by it have become the most important factors threatening human health. The lipid metabolism-related studies are increasingly receiving attention. Recent studies have demonstrated that proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), a family member of precursor protein-converting enzyme, plays an important role in the regulation of lipid metabolism. The expression and mutation of PCSK9 gene are closely correlated with the content of low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR). The excessive expression of PCSK9 promotes the degradation of LDLR, thereby increasing the levels of plasma LDL; whereas the inhibition of PCSK9 gene expression causes the decreased levels of plasma LDL. Therefore, it is promising to develop novel medications for treating hypercholesterolemia, controlling hyperlipermia and preventing coronary heart disease by studying the mechanism of PCSK9.

Objective To study and compare the effects of different surgical operation in treatment of adolescent idiopathic seoliosis. Methods 70 patients with adolescent idiopathic seoliosis and patients informed consent were selected as research object,and they were divided into group A 35 cases and group B 35 cases according to their willingness, and they were separately treated with videoassisted anterior thoracoscopic correction and traditional anterior thoracoscopic correction, then the surgical time, complications, hospital stays, rates of patients satisfaction, total effective rate and Cobb, before and after the treatment were detected and compared. Results The surgical time [(225.6 ± 30. 8) min] and hospital stays [(2. 7 ± 0. 8) d] of group A were all shorter than those of group B [( 365. 4 ±23. 8) min, (4. 8 ± 1.2 ) d] ( t = 3.26,3.78, all P ＜ 0. 05 ), complications rate ( 8. 6% ) was lower than that of group B (20. 0% ) ( x2 = 3. 45, P ＜ 0. 05 ), rates of patients satisfaction ( 97. 1% ) and total effective ( 97. 1% ) were higher than those of group B(80. 0% ,85.75% ) (x2 =2. 85,3.01 ,all P ＜0.05) ,Cobb( 14. 2 ± 5.4)°was smaller than that of group B(23. 4 ±5.6) °(t =2. 97 ,P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusion The effect of vidcoassisted anterior thoracoscopic correction in treatment of adolescent idiopathic seoliosis was good,and complications rate was low and it was worthy of extend and application.

Objective To explore the short-term and long-term clinical effect of leep knife treatment of chronic cervicitis. Methods A single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled study was used, 120 patients with chronic cervicitis were randomly divided into observation group and control group, each group of 60 patients. Patients in the observation group were treated with (LEEP) knife, parameters setting frequency was 3.8 MHz, power was 30 ~ 40W, patients in the control group were treated with microwave. The intraoperative and postoperative recovery and relapse were compared between two groups. Results The intraoperative blood loss, operative time, postoperative vaginal discharge time in the observation group were significantly less than control group, there was a significantly statistical difference (P<0.001) . After two weeks and three months , the cure rate in observation group were 70% and 98.33% respectively, the cure rate in control group were 16.67% and 51.67%, there was a significantly statistical difference (P <0.01) . After 2 weeks and 3 months, the infection rate and recurrence rate in the observation group were significantly lower than the control group, there was a significantly statistical difference (P <0.05) . Conclusion Leep knife for treatment of chronic cervicitis patients has lower postoperative recurrence, lower infection rate and higher cure rate in short-term and long-term, and less intraoperative trauma, shorter operation time, and has important clinical significance for the prognosis of patients.

Immunological imbalance is the foundation for the development of liver damage or fibrosis.Therefore,the treatment of liver disea-ses not only relies on regenerative medicine for cellular replacement,but also depends on immunoregulation.The immunological basis of liver injury and repair,the immunological basis of multipotent stem cells for allograft,and the research advances in the immunoregulatory effect of stem cells in the treatment of liver diseases demonstrated that multipotent stem cells,especially mesenchymal stem cells,have low immuno-genicity and cause immunosuppression,with the immunological basis of allograft;in addition,they can improve the local immune microenvi-ronment of the liver by immunoregulation to reduce the liver injury caused by immune response.It is suggested that multipotent stem cells, which meet the requirements of cellular replacement and immunoregulation in the liver,will become an ideal treatment of liver diseases.

Objective To investigate the effects of Astragalus membranaceus and Angelica sinensis on the hemodynamics and pathological features of arterial wall in restenosis of blood vessel in rats in order to find the potential mechanism of the effect of Astragalus membranaceus and Angelica sinensis in preventing restenosis after ablation of intima. Method Thirty SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (6 each):control group (C),model group (M),Astragalus membranaceus treatment group (H),Angelica sinensis treatment group (D),and combined Astragalus membranaceus with Angelica sinensis treatment group (HD). The restenosis model was reproduced by denuding rat's aorta endothelium with balloon catheter in all the groups except group C. After intramuscular injection of Astragalus membranaceus 0.42ml/(kg?d) in group H,Angelica sinensis 0.21ml/(kg?d) in group D,and Astragalus membranaceus 0.42ml/(kg?d) together with Angelica sinensis 0.21ml/(kg?d) in group HD for 21 days,the changes in hemodynamics and the pathological features of arterial wall were observed in all the groups. Result Compared with rats of group C,in which the intima was smooth and the smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in media were orderly arranged,the intimal thickness of aorta,pulsatile index (PI) and resistance index (RI) increased,while the diameter of lumen,blood velocity decreased remarkably in group M. Compared with the rats in group M,the extent of hyperplasia and thickness was notably reduced,RI and PI were lower while blood velocity was lowered in group H,D and HD after being treated for 21 days. Conclusion Hyperplasia induced by remaval of endothelial cells may be reduced and blood circulation may be improved to different extents by individually or simultaneously use of Astragalus membranaceus and Angelica sinensis,thus preventing restenosis of the aorta after removal of its intima.
