"Correspondence between nature and human" is the basic thought of ancient Chinese philosophy. It had different meanings at different historical period. In Shang and Zhou dynasty, nature and human were combined together by sorcery; in Han dynasty, "qi" became the link of nature and human; and in Song and Ming dynasty, the link turned to the "Li".The concept of "correspondence between nature and human" improved the formation TCM theory and influenced its development for all the time.

Objective To develop a national reference for nucleic acid detection reagents of Yersinia pestis, so as to use it for the evaluation and quality control of Yersinia pestis nucleic acid detection reagents. Methods Five strains of Yersinia pestis[(EV strain, 0614F strain, otten strain, Tjiusidej(R) strain and Microtus vole 201 strain)] and 10 strains of negative bacteria(3 Yersinia enterocolitica strains, Brucella bovis 104M strain, Bacillus anthracis, Salmonella typhi, Francis tulage LVS strain,Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, Vibrio cholerae and Shigella) were cultured, harvested and inactivated. The stock solution of the reference was obtained and verified by ordinary PCR amplification, and a set of national references composed of 5 positive references, 10 negative references, 1 reference of minimum detection limit(EV strain positive reference was prepared by freeze-drying) and 1 repetitive reference(the same preparation method as the minimum detection limit reference) was prepared. Fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect the coincidence rate, uniformity and stability of the national reference products, and four laboratories were organized for collaborative calibration. Results After ordinary PCR amplification, the corresponding target gene bands were found in the stock solution of all the positive references, and no corresponding gene bands were amplified in the stock solution of negative references. The coincidence rates of the national references detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR were 100%. There was no significant difference in Ct values of 3a gene in 10 minimum detection limit references in three repeated detections(F = 1. 567, P = 0. 193). Compared with the references without freezing and thawing, there was no significant difference in Ct values of 3a gene of the minimum detection limit references and positive references after freezing and thawing for three times(t = 0. 416 and 0. 079, respectively, each P > 0. 05). Compared with the references without high temperature preservation, the Ct value of the minimum detection limit reference stored at37 ℃ for 5 d was significantly different(t = 7. 109, P = 0. 002), while there was no significant difference at 4 and 25 ℃(t = 0. 341and 0. 751, respectively, each P > 0. 05). The Ct values of positive references had no significant difference after preservation at 4, 25 and 37 ℃ for 5 d(t = 2. 442, 0. 373 and-0. 043, respectively, each P > 0. 05). The coincidence rates of positive and negative references in four laboratories were all 100%. The minimum detection limit of the minimum detection limit reference detected by two laboratories was 1 × 10~2/mL, and that by the other two laboratories was 1 × 10~3/mL. The CVs of the repetitive reference detection results in four laboratories were all less than 10. 0%. Conclusion This set of national reference for Yersinia pestis nucleic acid detection reagents developed in this study has good uniformity and freeze-thaw stability, and has good accelerated stability at 4 and 25 ℃, which can be used for the evaluation and quality control of Yersinia pestis nucleic acid detection reagents.

Objective To increase the speed of thermoacoustic imaging, a deconvolution reconstruction (DR) algorithm is proposed for small-scale need detecting living beings, on the basis of deconvolution of thermoacustic imaging algorithm. Methods A new function was firstly constructed from the detected acoustic pressure function. Then, the distribution of electromagnetic wave absorption coefficient of the need detecting living beings could be reconstructed from this new function based on the deconvolution method. Computer simulation studies were carried out to compare the DR algorithm with the two popular algorithms: the time-domain reconstruction (TDR) and the filtered back projection (FBP). Results For small-scale need detecting living beings, the accuracy of DR was nearly equivalent to TDR and slightly better than FBP. However, DR was about 4 to 6 times faster than TDR and about 25 to 100 times faster than FBP under the simulation experiment condition. Conclusion DR is a fast and effective algorithm of thermoacoustic imaging for small-scale living beings.

Barrett’s esophagus is associated with esophageal adenocarcinoma and cardia cancer,although it has no significant influence on individual’s expectation of life and the canceration rate is comparatively low. However,Barrett’s esophagus has big burden on the psychology and economy of patients. At present,there are still some debates about the diagnosis and management of Barrett ’s esophagus. American Gastroenterological Association, British Society of Gastroenterology and Chinese Society of Gastroenterology have updated their guidelines on Barrett’s esophagus. In this review,we introduced the updated progress in diagnosis and management of Barrett’s esophagus according to these three new guidelines,and compared the similarities and differences between these guidelines.

ObjectivesTo study the clinical characteristics, the risk factors and outcomes of arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) and hemorrhagic stroke (HS) in children.MethodsThe clinical data from 142 children with AIS or HS were retrospectively re-viewed and compared from Nov. 2010 to May 2014.ResultsIn these children, 92 cases (64.8%) was diagnosed of AIS, amont whom there were 60 males and 32 females and the onset age of stroke was 4.6±3.6 years (1 months to 16 years old), and 50 cases (35.2%) was diagnosed of HS, among whom there were 34 males and 16 females and the onset age of stroke was 2.6±3.7 years (1 months to 13 years old). The difference in age between two groups was statistically signiifcant (P=0.007). The most common presentation of AIS were focal neurological dysfunction including paralysis (73 cases, 79.3%), central facial palsy (30 cases, 32.6%) and speech impairment (19 cases, 20.7%). The most common presentation of HS were diffuse neurological dysfunction including dizziness (29 cases, 58.0%), nausea/vomiting (22 cases, 44.0%) and headache (14 cases, 28.0%). The major risk factors of AIS were arteriopathy (49 cases, 53.3%), infection (47 cases, 51.1%) and minor head injury (16 cases, 17.4%). The major risk factors of HS were vitamin K deifciency (22 cases, 44.0%), intracranial vascular anomalies (8 cases, 16.0%) and haematological disorders (6 cases, 12.0%). Five cases (6.4%) were died, 48 cases (61.5%) became disabled and 9 cases (11.5%) were relapsed in children with AIS while 15 cases (34.1%) were died, 19 cases (43.2%) became disabled in children with HS. The mortality was signiifcantly higher in children with HS than that in children with AIS (P<0.01).ConclusionsIn childhood stroke, HS occurs more frequently than is commonly appreciated and it has a poorer prognosis than AIS.

Objective To study the method based on gradient vector flow (GVF) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) for realizing multimodal medical image registration and improving its accuracy. Methods In view of three major components of image registration, i.e. the feature space, the similarity metric and the search strategy, a novel method was proposed with three improvements. Firstly, the GVF field was employed as the feature space. Then three similarity metrics were proposed based on GVF field. Finally, an improved PSO combined with crossover mechanism of genetic algorithm was utilized to search for the optimal transformation of two images. Results With 54 times of experiments on both simulated and real medical images, it was demonstrated that this method accurately registered the multimodal medical images to be superior to the method based on PSO of pixels, and the Walsh transform method. Conclusion The method based on GVF and PSO is effective for multimodal medical image registration.
