Moot Court practice teaching is an important part of the teaching of medical and health law. Based on several years of university students' participating in moot court competition, and combined with the personal experience of the instructors and the participating students, we summed up our inexperience of medical law moot court practice teaching, and put forward feasible suggestions to professional Moot Court simulation practice teaching reform of Health Law in order to effectively improve the medical and health professional moot court practice teaching, thus implementing the law to strengthen the students practical skills trainingteaching objectives.

The intracellular hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) content per cell was increased by 7.2-fold in the culture with 1.5% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) compared with that in the control without DMSO, while the extracellular HBsAg production and specific productivity were only improved by 70% and 3.2-fold, respectively. Electron microscope has been employed to reveal large dilated structures within recombinant CHO cells in the presence DMSO. The dilated structures have a distribution within whole cytoplasm, and some dilated areas were engulfed in the nucleus. These large, dilated structures were not observed in the control. Immunogold labeling was used to discover the accumulated HBsAg was localized within these dilated areas, and some HBsAg-specific labels were detected in the nucleus membrane, owing to the encroachment of the dilated areas upon nucleus. The result could help to reveal the mechanism of intracellular HBsAg accumulation in the presence of DMSO.

Objective To study the expression of VEGF-C and its receptor in breast carcinoma tissue and in peritumoral tissue,as well as their clinic significance.Methods Immunohistochemistry SP method was used to examine the expression of VEGF-C and VEGFR3 in 70 cases of breast cancer and in its peritu- moral tissue.Results In all 70 cases of breast cancer,the positive expression rate of VEGF-C in breast car- cinoma tissue was 78.6 %,and its rate in peritumoral tissue was 54.3 %.There was a significant stastistic dif- ference between the two groups(P

BACKGROUNDTo clarify the difference and significance of T-lymphocyte subsets in differential diagnosis between severe acute respiratory syndrome SARS) and common atypical pneumonia.

METHODSTotally 100 patients hospitalized in Beijing Ditan Hospital since March to June 2003 with clinical diagnosis of SARS were involved in this study. These patients courses of disease were over 3 weeks. These patients were divided into two groups, SARS group and common atypical pneumonia group (non-SARS group). The counts of CD3+, CD4+ and CD8+ T-lymphocyte of two groups were systematically recorded and analyzed.

RESULTSSixty-five of the patients were confirmed to have common type of SARS, including 26 males and 39 females, 50 cases received methylprednisolone treatment. Thirty-five cases had common atypical pneumonia (non-SARS), 21 were males while 14 were females, 20 cases received methylprednisolone treatment. All the cases of two groups were cured in the end. The SARS patients T-lymphocyte counts decreased first and then increased. Before 15 days of disease course, mean CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ T-lymphocyte counts of SARS patients were decreased apparently (694+/-568/microl, 441+/-356/microl, 309+/-462/microl). After 15th day of disease course, the counts gradually returned to normal CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ T-lymphocyte counts of non-SARS patients were normal. Compared with patients of the same group who were not treated with glucocorticoids, T-lymphocyte counts of non-SARS patients treated with glucocorticoids had no obvious difference. But glucocorticoids had some effect on SARS patients recovery of cellular immune function, i.e., it delayed the recovery by about 6 days.

CONCLUSIONWith or without treatment with glucocorticoids,the lowered CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ T-lymphocyte counts in the early stage are of very important significance in differential diagnosis between severe acute respiratory syndrome and common atypical pneumonia.

Total wrist arthroplasty are not used as widely as total knee and hip replacement. The functional hands are requiring surgeons to design a durable and functional satisfying prosthesis. This article will list the main reasons that cause the failure of the prosthesis. Some remarkable and representative prostheses are listed to show the devolvement of total wrist prosthesis and their individual special innovations to fix the problems. And the second part we will discuss the part that biomechanical elements act in the total wrist replacement (TWA). Summarize and find out what the real problem is and how we can find a way to fix it.

OBJECTIVETo test expression of carbonic anhydrase II (Ca II) mRNA in osteoclasts which were applied with fluid shear stress.

METHODSThe bone marrow cells of Sprague-Dawley rats were cultured with the presence of 1,25-(OH)2D3 and dexamethasone. The osteoclast-like cells were identified by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase(TRAP) staining and scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation, then purified with trypsin/ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA). Different values and lasting time of steady fluid shear stress were exerted on the osteoclasts with parallel plate flow system. The Ca II expression of osteoclasts were detected by real time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and nested polymerase chain reaction(PCR).

RESULTSThe levels of Ca II mRNA were down-regulated correspondingly with the increase of stress and time (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONIt's indicated that steady fluid shear stress within a certain range may down-regulate the expression of Ca II in osteoclasts.

The adverse drug reaction (ADR) of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been concerned nowadays. Some bans were published to limit their use abroad. There wasn't a feasible criterion to reply to the ADR of TCM yet in China. The ADR of 6 kinds of typical TCM which state attached importance to was chosen to discuss. Based on the retrospect investigation, the objectivity of ADR was explored in this study.

BACKGROUNDAllografts were widely used in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction for patients with ACL rupture of the knee. This study was to approve the feasibility of bone-posterior cruciate ligament-bone (BPCLB) allograft transplantation in ACL reconstruction.

METHODSEight patients underwent ACL reconstructions with BPCLB allografts and were followed up for an average period of 32 months after operation.

RESULTSSubjective parameters including International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC), modified Larson knee ligament, Lysholm, and Tegner rating scales were much improved and side to side KT-2000 arthrometer difference was much less postoperatively. Pivot shift test was negative in all patients. The reconstructed ACL had satisfactory shape and tension.

CONCLUSIONSBPCLB allograft is an optional choice for ACL reconstruction.
