Objective Estimating clinical effects of the Therapy of Potassium L-aspartate Injection on Hypokalemia.Methods These hypolalemia patients from the Renji hospital of Shanghai Jiaotong University and Other Two Hospitals,and from March 2007 to May 2008,which were caused from various kinds of reasons.The test group (42 patients) were intravenous dripped by using three rami potassium L-aspartate injection added in 5% Glucose (or saline) 750 mL,the control group (44 patients) were gived two rami chloratum Kalium injection added in 5% Glucose (or saline) 750 mL,the Kalium were 1.10 g/d in both groups,once per day,time of therapy was 7 day.Results The test and control groups effective power after therapy were 86.67% and 91.11%,respectively,there was no significant difference (P=0.3998).The Kalium dose of test group was advanced from (3.18?0.23) mmol/L before testing to (3.73?0.37) mmol/L after therapy,the elevated average was (0.61?0.46)mmol/L,and there was no significant difference (P=0.4722).The accumulation power of Kalium recovery were (51.11?7.45)%,(77.78?6.20)%,(86.67?5.07)%,at the second,the fored and the sevened day,respectively.There was no significant difference between the two groups (P=0.1430).Conclusion The clinical effect was correspond between three rami potassium L-aspartate injection added in 5% Glucose (or saline) 750 ml and the Isodose chloratum Kalium injection,by once per day,and seven days of therapy,which can treat hypokalimeia caused from various kinds of reasons.

To modify the splicing pattern of Bcl-x and compare the effect of this approach with that of the antisense gene therapy in BIU-87 cell line of bladder cancer, by using 5'-Bcl-x AS to target downstream alternative 5'-Bcl-x splice site to shift splicing from Bcl-xL to Bcl-xS and 3'-Bcl-x AS antisense to the 3'-splice site of exon III in Bcl-x pre-mRNA to down regulation of Bcl-xL expression, the inhibitory effects on cancer cells by modification of alternative splicing and antisense gene therapy were observed and compared by microscopy, MTT Assay, RT-PCR, FACS, Westhern bloting and clone formation. The growth of cells BIU-87 was inhibited in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Its inhibitory effect began 12 h after the exposure, reaching a maximum value after 72h. The number of cells decreased in S phase and the number increased in G1 phase. The ability to form foci was reduced and the antisense gene therapy was approximately half as efficient as modification of alternative splicing in inducing apoptosis. It is concluded that modification of splicing pattern of Bcl-x pre-mRNA in bladder cancer cell BIU-87 is better than antisense gene therapy in terms of tumor inhibition.

It has been suggested that progression of bladder transitional cell cancer (BTCC) may be regulated at the molecular level by a typical pattern of expression of genes involved in apoptosis. Recently Livin, belonging to the inhibitors of apoptosis (IAP) family, has been found to be expressed in most solid tumors, where its expression is suggested to have clinical significance. In order to explore the significance of Livin expression in the development of BTCC, immunohistochemistry and RT-QPCR were used to detect the expression of Livin mRNA in tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues of 30 cases of BTCC. The results showed that the positive rate of Livin expression in adjacent normal tissues and tumor tissues was 0 and 60% (18/30) respectively. The-DeltaDeltaCT value of Livin in BTCC tissues was 8.0454 (7.4264-8.6644) times of that in adjacent normal tissues. The expression of Livin mRNA had no correlation with tumor pathological grades and clinical stages. It was suggested that there was weak expression of Livin mRNA in adjacent normal tissues, but strong in tumor tissues.

Objective To observe the effect of rhTRAIL on survivin gene expression of human lung adeno-carcinoma A549 xenografted tumor in nude mice,and investigate the possible inhibitory mechanism of rhTRAIL on the implanted-tumor growth.Methods The solid tumor model was formed in nude mice with human lung adeno-carcinoma cell line.A549.24 mice were randomly divided into the four groups,rhTRAIL single treated group (1 μg/mL),rhTRAIL combined with cisplatin (DDP) treated group,cisplatin treated (1.5mg/kg) and 0.9％ sodium chloride injection(NS) control group.The rhTRAIL and DDP were injected once every other day by intraperitoneal injection to mice in the treated groups,lasting eight times,the same volume of saline solution was injected to the control group.After these,mice were killed and dissected completely.The expression level of survivin mRNA and protein in the tumor tissues was detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry,respectively.And the expression of survivin gene in serum of each group was tested by ELISA.Results The expression levels of survivin mRNA in implanted-tumor tissues in rhTRAIL,rhTRAIL combined with DDP,DDP and NS group were (48.7 ± 2.5) ％,(53.1 ± 4.6) ％,(99.1 ± 5.3) ％ and (95.6 ± 3.7) ％,respectively.While the protein expressions of survivin gene in those groups were (0.319 ± 0.025),(0.483 ± 0.058),(0.635 ± 0.041) and (0.619 ± 0.017),respectively.Moreover,the serum levels of survivin were (71.9 ± 7.05),(80.26 ± 10.80),(112.75 ± 15.41) and (105.03 ± 20.37),respectively.The data showed that the expression levels of rhTRAIL and rhTRAIL combined with DDP group were lower than that of DDP-treated group or the NS control group (P ＜ 0.0 5).Compared with the rhTRAIL combined with DDP group,the survivin gene expression level of rhTRAIL-single treated group decreased a little lower,but the difference was not significant (P ＞ 0.05).Conversely,the survivin gene level was increased to some degree compared with the NS control group,and uniformly there was no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion rhTRAIL can downregulate the expression level of survivin gene of human lung adeno-carcinoma A549 xenografted tumor in nude mice.It may be one of the possible inhibitory mechanisms of rhTRAIL on the implanted-tumor growth that rhTRAIL can downregulate survivin gene expression and promote tumor cell apoptosis.

BACKGROUND:Recent studies have proved the presence of adjacent vertebral fractures after percutaneous kyphoplasty, suggesting that cement leakage may be an important reason. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of bone cement amount during percutaneous kyphoplasty on adjacent vertebral endplate using finite element analysis. METHODS: Three-dimensional finite element pathological model of Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture was established using finite element analysis, and 10%, 20% and 30% volume of bone cement were filed, respectively. Then the adjacent vertebral endplate stress under the axial compression, anteflexion and rear protraction were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with that before operation, the adjacent vertebral endplate stress increased with the increase in filed bone cement volume, suggesting that the increased amount of bone cement wil lead to the increasing of adjacent vertebral re-fractures.

To study the current situation of Chinese medicine services from both perspective of supply and demand, looking to promote the healthy development of Chinese medicine community health service strategy. Questionnaire survey was conducted to practitioners of 14 community health service centers in Longhua district (80) and service objects (800). Ratios and SWOT methods were used for analysis. 75 qualified practitioners and 736 qualified service objects questionnaire recoveries showed that there are different degrees of commands from both sides, different options on therapeutic methods and lack of practitioners. It is suggested that community health service center should supply TCM service according to different time, different place and different patient on different type and levels.

BACKGROUND:Pelvis is the most complicated structure of human body, and many scholars have devoted themselves to its biomechanical study. However, it is difficult to construct the pelvic finite element model containing main muscles and ligaments, as a result of its irregular shape and complicated structure.
OBJECTIVE:To establish a normal human pelvis three-dimensional finite element model and provide digital model for the subsequent biomechanics analysis of pelvis.
METHODPelvic CT images of healthy male volunteers were stored in DICOM format and then put into Mimics 10.01 software for three-dimensional medical image reconstruction. The files were imported into reverse engineering software Geomagic studio 11 for surface processing and establishing surface model;then the surface model was introduced into finite element analysis software Ansys 14.0 for finite element meshing.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A normal adult pelvis three-dimensional finite element model was developed, including 818 294 units and 149 290 nodes. Based on the CT images, we established pelvic finite element model, which have good accuracy, anatomical and geometric similarity, and could provide the basis for subsequent biomechanics analysis of pelvis.

The biobank for medical researchers is a resource of significant utility , which also causes a series of ethical issues. For example, the question of what kind of informed consent should be adopted for the biobanking tissue residue, whether related study can be conducted without the donors' consent and how to accomplish the biobank research. Based on ethical principles of donation, individual rights of donor and common interest of the society, this study suggested the informed consent that to which extent can be accepted for biobank and which type should be adopted in different scenes with two feasible choices. One is the irreversible, and the other is the reversible anonymization process for samples. The necessity and rationality of informed consent for biobank con-struction were also evaluated in order to provide references for the ethical practice of biobank research.

Issues related to bioethics research often involve four basic principles , which are the value and integri-ty of the research, respect for human being, risk to benefit ratio, and the justice in subject selection. These prin-ciples contribute to the basis of bioethics for human-involved studies and they are capable of being applied to other relevant fields including complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) researches. The World Health Orga-nization (WHO) guidelines related to CAM studies clarify that the consideration should be taken for the human rights based on different value systems caused by social, cultural and historical problems, and the ethical prob-lem involved in CAM clinical studies should be properly handled in the further studies. Based on the four prin-ciples and Chinese traditional culture, the author attempted to discuss controversial bioethical issues such as the understanding and setting of informed consent, risk and benefit in western culture bioethics in order to analyze possible issues in the ethical review of Chinese medicine clinical research. We hoped that these considerations can provide references to the bioethical understanding of Chinese medicine clinical studies and ethical review on Chinese medicine practice .
