Objective To observe the effect of acupuncture on cerebral glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)expression of brain injury caused by intrauterine infection in neonatal rats.Methods Forty-three Wistar pregnant rats were divided into 2 groups:lipopolysaccharide(LPS)(n=35)and normal saline(n=8).Pregnant rats were consecutively injected intraperitoneally with LPS(450 ?g/kg)or saline on gestation 17 d and 18 d.LPS group were randomly divided into acupuncture group and model group.Acupuncture group were given acupunctured from 7 d to 21 d.GFAP expression was assayed with immunohistochemical technique.Results The number of GFAP immunoreaction(IR)strongly-positive neurons in the cerebral white matter was more in acupuncture group,less in model group and only very weakly IR-positive neurons were found in normal saline group.Conclusion Acupuncture can up-regulate the expression of GFAP in the cerebral white matter,which may contribute to the effect of acupuncture in improving brain injury caused by intrauterine infection.

One hundred and thirty-six adult patients with type 2 diabetes ( ≥40 years, body mass index > 24) were assigned to the low-dose Mefformin, high-dose Mefformin, and control groups. Plasma lactic acid level was detected with ultraviolet enzyme kinetics assay. Our data showed that plasma lactic acid of the low-dose or high-dose mefformin group was significantly higher than the control group (2.314 vs. 2.511, P<0.05 ), although there was no significant difference between the low-dose and the high-dose Mefformin group. In all the 3 groups, increased lactic acid ( > 2. 2 mmol/L) was found in some patients ( Mefformin group vs. Control group: X2 = 7.43, P < 0.05 ), and no lactic acid > 5.0 mmol/L was found. Insulin resistance index and hemoglobin Alc were similar between the 3 groups. Thus, mefformin may not increase the risk of lactic acidosis in diabetic patients with normal cardiorespiratory and renal function.

Objective To determine the bacterial composition and resistance of wound infections in China. Methods Disc diffusion test,MIC test and E-test were used to detect the antimicrohial resistance of bacterial isolates from wound secretions.WHONET 5.4 was applied for analysis of the bacterial sensitive data from 86 domestic tertiary hospitals from June 1,2006 to May 31,2007. Results (1)2125 bacterial strains were coileeted in the survey period,which included 994 strains (46.8%) of Gram positive and 1131 strains (53.2%) of Gram negative bacteria,Staphylococcus(780 strains,36.7%),E.coli(338 strains,15.9%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (231 strains,10.9%)were the most common isolates.(2)38.2% and 84.1% of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis were methicillin-resistant.respectively.No Staphylococcus strain was resistant to vancomycin or teicoplanin.(3)ESBLs positive rate of E.coli was about 60%,while the resistant rate to quinolones Was about 70%.(4)The resistant rates of Staphylococci and E.coli isolated from adults to aminoglyeoside and quinolones were higher than those from children.(5)The resistant rates of Staphylococei to cephalosporin,aminoglyeoside and quinolones from inpatients were higher than those from out-patients. Conclusion Staphylococci,E.coli and Pseudomonas aeriginoso were among the most common organisms isolated from wound infections.The ESBLs positive rate of E.coli from wound infections was higher than that from all specimen bacteria found in other surveys performed during the same period and the methicillin resistant Staphylococci were less than that.

Objective To investigate the effect of heat sensitive moxibustion combined with Bushen Huoxue traditional Chinese medicine for treating sterility due to ovulatory dysfunction, provide evidence-based medicine proof for clinical treatment of ovulation dysfunction infertility optimization scheme.Methods This was a prospective, randomized, parallel controlled study.The control group injected recombinant human chorionic gonadotrophin ( HCG) by intramuscular, the observation group used the traditional Chinese medicine heat sensitive moxibustion combined with Bushe Huoxue herbs therapy, with the total curative effect, the ovulation rate, pregnancy rate, B ultrasound follicle image as the main observation indexes to judge the effect of treatment.Results After treatment, the of control group and treatment group patients were able to ovulate; the total effective rate of treatment group was 100%, slightly higher than the control group, by Ridit analysis, R =0.523, P =0.720; after treatment, two groups of pregnancy success rate approaches, P=0.243, with no significant difference; the average healing time was shorter than that of control group (P<0.05); the diameter of the largest follicle increased in two groups after treatment, but the difference was not statistically significant;the treatment group improved the total efficiency of the kidney deficiency was higher than that in control group, but the difference was not statistically significant.Conclusion Application of combined treatment of Bushen Houxue herbs and heat sensitive moxibustion can improve the ovulation rate and pregnancy rate in patients of ovulation dysfunction infertility with kidney deficiency and blood stasis, convenient and economic.

Objective To explore the childhood abuse impact on clinical and personality characters among anxiety associated depressive patients.Methods A case-control method was taken among 86 anxiety associated depression patients,36 cases with childhood abuse and controlled with 50 cases without childhood abuse.HAMD,HAMA,CECA-Q,MMPI were used to evaluate the participants,and the scores of the results were compared between the two groups.Results For the HAND,the group with CA were significantly higher than the group without CA(t=7.079,P＜0.05).From the point of factor scores,there was not a significant difference between the two groups among the factors such as anxiety somatization,cognitive impairment,and hopelessness.From the point of view of the total scores of HAMA (t=3.108) and spiritual anxiety (t=4.037),somatic anxiety (t=2.742) the CA group was significantly higher than group without CA(P＜0.05).In the patients with CA the psychoticism(P) (t=2.794) and neuroticism (N) (t=3.217) factors were significantly higher than patients without CA (P＜0.05).MMPI evaluation results showed accept ance T points in addition to lie(L),calibration(K),male woman(Mf),light mania(Ma),the CA group were significantly higher than the group without CA(P＜0.05).T points to compare two groups of MMPI additional factor scale,the adaptation to the society (A),emotional intelligence (EQ),decisionmaking ability (DE),CA group were lower than the group without CA,violence (VL),traffic accident (DR) and addiction(SA) with CA group was higher than the group without CA(P＜0.05).The regression analysis showed that the emotional neglect score and HAMD scores were positively related in the relationship of the childhood abuse and depression.Y =3.729+0.887 X(P=0.000).Sexual abuse score and HAND scores were related,regression analysis showed that the Y =9.799 + 0.655 X (P =0.000).Conclusions The clinical patients with CA have more severe symptoms than the patients without CA.Personality is extraversion more emotionally unstable.Their emotional intelligence and decision-making comprehensive ability is low,and violence tendency is obvious.Emotional neglect and sexual abuse have an important impact in the pathogenesis of the disease.

Objective To understand the status of post-traumatic growth of severe burn patients and analyze its influencing factors. Methods General information questionnaire and post-traumatic growth inventory (PTGI) were used to investigate thirty patients with severe burn. Multi-linear regression method was used to analyze the post-traumatic influencing factors. Results The average score of PTGI was (68.30 ± 10.90), which was in media level. The main influencing factors included burn area, active exercise, time and expense of treatment, marital status and sear proliferation. Conclusion In order to improve the post-traumatic growth,nurses should enhance psychological intervention, teach effective coping strategies and increase the social level to the burn patients.
