Presently, with the development of tissue engineering technology, medical workers have seen a more effective and safer therapy to repair and reconstruct tissue defects. Many domestic and abroad animal experiments have confirmed that it is feasible, effective and superior to use tissue-engineered bone and cartilage for repairing tissue defects. There have been achieved considerable results using tissue-engineered bone and cartilage to repair tissue defects and reconstruct tissue functions through the animal experiments and initial clinical studies. Compare with traditional operations, tissue engineering technology has a broader clinical application, especially in orthopedics, department of stomatology, cranio-facial surgery and ear, nose and throat, department. However, through the research, we recognize some deficiencies of tissue engineering, such as single tissue components, lack of biological activity, limited for scaffolds, tissue regeneration and productions.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of automated medication management system in increasing clinical anesthesia management specification.Methods Sixty registered anesthesiologists of both sexes in our hospital,residents or attending physicians,with 1-10 yr of work experience,were divided into 2 groups (n =30 each) using a random number table:traditional medication management mode group (group T) and automated medication management system group (group A).In the clinical anesthesia work,traditional artificial management mode was used in group T,the mode of automated medication management system was used in group A,and 2 licensed pharmacists worked in the center pharmacy of our hospital were introduced for each group.Time of taking medicine was recorded by licensed pharmacists,and the error rates of taking medicine and recording were determined by licensed pharmacists.Results Compared with group T,the error rates of taking medicine and recording were significantly decreased (P＜0.01),and no significant change was found in the time of taking medicine in group A (P＞0.05).Medication errors including taking wrong anesthesia drug,wrong prescription recording,wrong names of the common drugs and drug omission were not detected in group A.Conclusion Application of automated medication management system can reduce the occurrence of errors made in taking medicine and recording,specify medication management and increase the quality of clinical anesthesia management.

The efectienes of acpuncture for smoking cessation was systematically evaluated in this paper. By using computer retrieval in Chinese national knowledge infrastructure (CNKI), WANFANG database, VIP database, PubMed, ScienceDirect and Springer, the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) regarding acupuncture for smoking cessation from January of 1983 to December of 2013 were collected; by using Table of Standardized Report Factors for Acupuncture RCTs, each inclusive RCT was evaluated; and by using RevMan 5. 2 software, the Meta-analysis was performed. Totally 24 RCTs were included, involving 3084 cases of smoking. The result of literature quality assessment showed that the average score was 25. 71 points without low-quality RCT which had a score of less than 16 points. The Meta-analysis showed that acupuncture could significantly increase the short-time abstinence rate [RR=1. 48, 95% CI (1. 18,1. 84), Z=3. 47, P<0. 0005] and number of cigarettes smoked daily [RR=4. 35, 95% CI (2. 03, 6. 66), Z=3. 68, P<0. 001] and FTND [RR=2. 37, 95% CI (1. 88, 2. 86), Z= 9. 44, P<0. 00001], however, it could not increase the long-time abstinence rate [RR=1. 40, 95% Cl (0. 90, 2.17), Z=1. 49, P>0. 05]. Compared with other treatment, acupuncture has positive advantages on short-time abstinence rate, however, its effect on long-time abstinence rate needs to be verified by high-quality, large-sample and multi-center RCT in the future.
