Middle sized public hospitals are facing new challenges with the introduction of the new medical reform policies and the promotion of internet information economy.In order to adapt to the new social economy and policy,medium sized public hospitals should be reformed,be more active and find their own new position according to the new environment.The following work can be done to improve medium sized public hospitals' survival and development and to better meet the needs of the society:exploring their resources,building their regional medical associations,strengthening their construction of key disciplines,utilizing the advantages of internet and information system,and reforming their personnel divisions.

AIM: To observe the effect of Retinervus luffae fructus (RLF) on the myocardial ischemia in mice. METHODS: Mice were supplied with RLF (166.7,333.3, 666.7 g/L) twice daily (0.01 mL/g, ig). One week later, 30 U/kg pituitrin was injected intraperitoneally. The electrocardiogram was recorded, and the content of lactose dehydrogenase (LDH) in the serum and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), maleicdialdehyde (MDA) in the myocardium were examined. RESULTS: RLF reduced the height of T wave in electrocardigram in myocardial ischemia mice and inhibited the decrease in heart rate. RLF also reduced the content of LDH in serum and the content of MDA in myocardium. The increase in the activity of SOD in myocardium was also observed. CONCLUSION: RLF may protect myocardium against ischemia injury. The mechanism may be related to the increase in activity of SOD and the suppression of the lipid peroxidation.

Objective To study the influence of different routes of keyhole limpet hemocyanin ( KLH) immuniza-tion on the T-cell-dependent antibody response in mice.Methods SPF Kunming mice were divided into four groups: the intravenous injection group, subcutaneous injection group, intraperitoneal injection group and control group.Each mouse was injected 200 μg KLH intravenously, subcutaneously or intraperitoneally daily for consecutive 10 days, respectively. Mice in the control group were given solvent injection only.Serum concentration of IgG stimulated by KLH antigen was measured 7 days after the last dosing.Spleen was isolated to calculate the organ coefficient and examined by pathology u-sing hematoxylin and eosin staining.Results Intravenously, subcutaneously and intraperitoneally administered KLH stimu-lated the generation of secondary lymphoid follicles and germinal center to varying degrees, B cell apoptosis, increased a-mount of cells in the marginal zone and other pathological changes were observed in the spleen.Intravenous and intraperito-neal administration of KLH led to more pronounced pathological changes compared with that in the subcutaneous injection group.All of the three administration routes of KLH induced generation of IgG antibody, significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05).Intravenous injection of KLH generated the highest concentration of IgG and organ coefficient among the three administration routes ( P<0.05) .Conclusions Different immunization routes do affect the production of IgG antibody, organ coefficient and pathological changes in the spleen, and these differences should be taken into consider-ation when analyzing the T cell dependent antibody response in mice.

A total of 55 children aged under 14 years with cholecystolithiasis were treated at our hospital between January 2005 to December 2011.Their clinical data were collected and analyzed.The etiologies included pseudolithiasis (n =36),chronic hemolytic disease (n =2),obesity (n =9) and unknown (n =8).Among 50 cases on conservative treatment,42 cases were cured.Four cases underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy.During a follow-up period of 2-4 years,there was no occurrence of significant complications.The removal of gallbladder stone was performed via laparoscopy plus choledochoscope in 1 case.There was no recurrence during a follow-up period of 2 years.Ceftriaxone sodium and obesity were the major cause of pediatric cholecystolithiasis.A proper selection of treatment regimens should be based upon the considerations of etiologies and symptoms.

Objective To investigate the situation and change of antifungal resistance in clinical Candida and other fungal iso- lates from 5 hospitals in diverse geographic region of China.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility testing of 8 000 fungat iso- lates collected during 2001 and 2005 were carried out with 25?g fluconazole disk and 1?g voriconazole disk using disk diffusion method as recommend by CLSI/NCCLS M44-A.Disk test plates were automatically read and results were recoded with the BIOMIC Image Analysis System.The equivalent MICs were automatically calculated by the BIOMIC System software.Results The proportion of Candida atbicans and non-Candida albicans (e.g.Candida glabrata) in the total fungal isolates did not change significantly from 2001 to 2005.The susceptibility rate of C.albicans to fluconazole and vorieonazole were stable during 2001 and 2005.However, the resistance to fluconazole and voriconazole increased variably in C.glabrata and other non-Can- dida albicans fungal isolates during the same period.Conclusions The voriconazole demonstrated higher activity against all yeast species in comparison with fluconazole.The increasing resistance to fluconazole and voriconazole in non C.albicans fungal isolates including C.glabruta suggests the importance of surveillance of fungal resistance in Candida isolates.

Objective To study the clinical therapeutic effect of acupuncture in the treatment of depressive neurosis.Methods The 60 selected patients of depressive neurosis were randomized into treatment group(acupuncture regulating the liver group)and con- trol group(near-by sham-point acupuncture group),with 30 in each.The scores of Symptom Checklist 90(SCL-90),Self-rating De- pression Scale(SDS),and Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD),and the total effective rate after treatment were observed.Results The total effective rate of the treatment group and the control group was 92.6% and 56.0% respectively,and the difference was sig- nificant(P

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of β-adrenoceptor (β-AR) blockers on G protein and heart function changes in rats with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) MethodsWistar rats with AMI induced by left anterior descending coronary branch ligation were randomly divided into compared with sham operation group. Eight weeks after therapy, hemodynamics was assessed by inserting catheters and the level of G protein was detected by Western blot analysis. ResultsCompared with the sham operation group, systolic blood pressure(SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), left ventricular systolic pressure(LVSP) and left ventrieular pressure maximal rate of rise and fall(±dp/dtmax) in AMI group were significantly decreased, while left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and Gs and Gi protein levels were significantly increased (all P<0.05). Compared with AMI group, LVSP and ± dp/dtmax were increased, but LVEDP and Gi protein level were significantly decreased in metoprolol and carvedilol group. LVEDP and Gi protein level were decreased in carvedilol group compared with metoprolol group. ConclusionsCarvedilol can effectively suppress the change of G protein and improve the heart function after AMI, and the effect is better than that of metoprolol. This may be related with its β2-AR blocking effect.

AIM: To evaluate the implication of CXCL10-loop3-EGF fusion protein for the activities of targeting tumor and anti-angiopoiesis. METHODS: RT-PCR was preformed to amplify CXCL10 coding sequence from PBMC activated by IFN-γ. CXCL10-loop3-EGF fusion gene, which was conducted by Over-Lap Extention PCR, was hinged up with plasmid pTG19-T, transfected to E. coli DH5α and processed positive colony selection. After ligated with plasmid pET32a(+), recombinant CXCL10-loop3-EGF fusion gene was then transfected to E. coli Origami B (DE3) and induced to express its coding fusion protein his-CXCL10-loop3-EGF. The recombinant fusion protein CXCL10-loop3 -EGF was purified by His-bind affinity chromatograph, enterokinase cleavage, ultrafiltration and dislysis. The transwell chemotatic test and HUVEC angiopoiesis inhibition test were performed to determine the anti-tumor responses and anti-angiopoiesis activity of CXCL10-loop3-EGF fusion protein. RESULTS: CXCL10-loop3-EGF fusion protein was successfully constructed and confirmed by SDS-PAGE analysis and Western blotting. Significant PBMC chematatic activity and HUVEC anti-angiopoiesis activity were observed. CONCLUSION: CXCL10-loop3-EGF fusion protein, which has perfect anti-tumor activity, is successfully constructed.

AIM: To study effect of endogenous carbon monoxide on intracellular calcium concentration and explore the mechanism in brain protection of endogenous CO in focal cerebral ischemia in rats. METHODS: SD rats were divided into three groups randomly, which including hemin, ZnPP group and saline group as control. Respectively saline, hemin, ZnPP were injected intra-peritoneally twelve hours before middle cerebral artery was occluded. Twenty four hours after MCAO model was set up, the concentration of carbon monoxide in blood and intracellular calcium in neural cells was examined. RESULTS: Contrast to saline group, the concentration of CO in blood rose up while intracellular calcium in occluded side decreased in hemin group; the concentration of CO in blood went down while intracellular calcium in occluded side rose up in ZnPP group, there was significant difference among them (P0.05). CONCLUSIONS: It may be one of mechanisms on brain protection in ischemic cerebral tissue that carbon monoxide affected intracellular calcium concentration of neural cells by regulating Ca~(2+)-K~+ channel on cell membrane as a messenger gaseous molecular and neurotransmitter.
