OBJECTIVE:To investigate the study of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in the treatment of chloasma,and to provide reference for clinical treatment and study of chloasma. METHODS:Retrieved from CBM,Wanfang database,CNKI and VIP,usingchloasmaas subject,the literatures of TCM therapy were collected during Jan. 2003-Dec. 2012. Bibliometric meth-od was adopted to analyze included literatures statistically in respects of publication amount,periodicals,research institution,litera-ture types,citing references,other periodicals citatien times,fund support,distribution of provinces and cities. RESULTS:During 2005-2012,the amount of the literatures increased slowly. Among top 10 journals in the list of publication amount,only Chinese Journal of Aesthetic Medicine was not TCM journal and took up the first place. Among top 7 research institutions in the list of publi-cation amount,TCM colleges took up predominant place,followed by TCM hospitals. The types of the literatures were mainly case report,contrastive study before and after treatment,group-divided control study;the amount of group-divided control studies increased gradually year by year. The references cited were mainly English literatures. There were 82 literatures which were cited by other periodicals more than 10 times;the highest time of other periodical citation per literature was 47 times;only 11 literatures were supported by fund. The institutions of literatures authors were distributed in 32 provinces,cities and autonomous regions of China,mainly in the eastern coastal areas. CONCLUSIONS:More and more attention has being paid to TCM therapy for chloas-ma,but the scope and depth of the studies were inadequate. From the point of view of modern medicine,we can explore the patho-logical TCM mechanism and the treatment method of shortening the course of disease.

Objective To study the correlation between organizational commitment of nurses and their intention to drop out. Methods Toally 304 contract nurses were recruited in this investigation. The questionnaires including demographic data, scale of organizational commitment and intention to drop out scale were used. Results The score of intention to drop out was 16.94 ± 2.16. The score on organizational commitment was 71.19 ± 6.65. There was a positive correlation between intention to drop out and organizational commitment among the contract nurses. Conclusions Improving contract nurses′organizational commitment can be an effective mean to reduce contract nurses′intention to drop out. It is an important means to promote the development of the nurse team and provide a reference for the scientific development of nursing.

AIM:To compare the synthesis efficiency of n3 and n6 very long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid ( VLC-PUFA ) by overexpressing ELOVL4 protein, providing guidance for treating Stargardt-like macular dystrophy (STGD3).
METHODS:To establish recombinant adenovirus with the ELOVL4 protein and green fluorescent protein, transferred into cultured PC12 cells. The cells were divided into 3 groups: PC12, PC12 + Ad- GFP and PC12 + Ad-ELOVL4, former two groups serve as controls. ELOVL4 gene expression was quantified by qRT-PCRs. ELOVL4 protein was analyzed by Western - Blot ( WB ) . The transduced cells were treated with both EPA and AA (1:1). After 48h of incubation, cells were collected, total lipids extracted and fatty acid methyl esters prepared and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry ( GC-MS) .
RESULTS:When supplemented together, 20:5n3 (EPA) and 20:4n6 ( AA) were efficiently taken up at almost the same amounts in the PC12 cells regardless of ELOVL4 expression. The ELOVL4-expressing cells elongated both EPA and AA to a series of n3 and n6 VLC-PUFAs. From 20:5n3/EPA, 34:5n3 and 36:5n3 account for 0. 71% and 1.6%, respectively. From 20:4n6/DHA, 34:4n6 and 36:4n6 were only 0. 46% and 0. 61%, respectively. The total relative mol% of n3 VLC-PUFAs synthesized from EPA was almost two times that of n6 VLC-PUFAs synthesized from AA.
CONCLUSION: ELOVL4 protein preferentially elongates n3 PUFA to VLC - PUFAs over n6 PUFA. Dietary supplementation of appropriate n3/n6 PUFAs may provide STGD3 patients with some therapeutic benefits.

Objective To studied perioperative changes in blood coagulation and the fibrinolytic system in patients undergoing acute aortic disec tion repair analyse the reason and outcome for these changes.Methods Between August 2011 and December 2011,30 patientsk[22 male and 8 female,mean aged (43.0±9.13) years] had undergone open repairs of aortic dissection or aneurysm with DHCA.Indications for surgical intervention were type A sortic dissection in 26 patients and aortic aneurysm in 4 patients.According to the time from clinical onset of the dissection to operation,acute group(less than 7 days,A group) 20 patients; chronic group (more than 30 days and aortic aneurysm,C group) 10 patients.Data were gathered for muhiple preoperative and intraoperative factors including age,sex,diagnosis,aortic dissection type,preoperative ejection fraction,aortic surgery history,surgical intervention type,cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time,aortic cross-clamp time,blood transfusion volume (PRBC),mechanic ventilation time,ICU length of stay and hospital length of stay.Platelet (PLT),fibrin degredation product (FDP),D-dimmer,thrombin-antithrombin (TAT),and soluble fibrin monomer complex (SFMC) were assayed before and after operation,as well as 0 h,24 h,48 h,72 h.These valuables were recorded and compared statistically between two groups.Results Preoperative serum level and postoperative peak level of FDP and D-dimmer in group A were significant higher than in gnoup C (P ＜ 0.05)and postopertive serum peak level in group C were significant higher than preoperative level (P ＜ 0.05 ).Preoperative snd postoperative most hours there was significant intergroup difference on the serum levels of SFMC and TAT (P ＜ 0.05 ).Preoperative level of PLT in group A is lower than in group C significantly (P ＜ 0.05 ).The level of PLT in each hour after surgery were much lower than the level before surgery in both group (P ＜0.05 ).In addition,thromhus fonantion in ascending aortic falsc lumen in group A was much moee common than in group C (P ＜0.05 ).There was significant difference on incidence of postoperative complications between two groups (P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Activation of coagulation and fibrinolysis which results from acute aortic dissection and surgical procedure was obscrved before and after surgery to treat acute aortic dissection.There is increasing risk for consumption coagulopathy and thromboembolism during perioperative period.

Objective To investigate the effects of laporoscopic resection applied to colorectal cancer patients on metabolism. Methods According to patients' choice of operation, either laparoscopic-assisted (n = 22, experimental group) or open(n = 27, control group) resection of colorectal cancer was performed. The levels of electrolyte were assayed preoperatively, postoperatively and on the time of 24 hours after opera-tion. Rseults There was no significant difference in the level of electrolyte before operation between the two groups (P > 0. 05). Compared with the preoperative period, the level of serum potassium in the both groups were significantly increased after operation(P < 0. 05), and 24 hours later, the levels of electrolyte was not significantly different in both the two groups (P > 0. 05). During the postoperative period, the level of serum potassium in the experimental group was lower than the control group(P <0. 05), while the level of HCO_3~- was higher than the control group(P <0. 05), and there were no significant differences in the level of serum sodium, chloride and calcium between the two groups(P > 0. 05). Conclusions Laparoscopic-assisted re-section of colorectal cancer gives lower levels of stress responses compared to open surgery. However, it shows higher effect on the level of HCO_3~- , and must be paid more attention during operative and postopera-tive period.

Objective To compare the effect and safety of enteral and parenteral nutritional support for gastric cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy(LRG). Methods Sixty gastric cancer patients received nutritional support after LRG at The Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from December 2007 to April 2010. All patients were randomly divided into the enteral nutrition(EN) group (n = 30)and parenteral nutrition (PN) group (n = 30) according to the random number table. Anthropometry, nutritional indexes, complications and expenses of the two groups were compared after treatment. All data were analysed by using the t test and chi-square test. Results Body mass index, triceps skin fold, mid-upper arm muscle circumference, hemoglobin levels, transferrin levels, and albumin levels were ( 16.9 ± 2.4) kg/m2, ( 10.6 ± 2.5 ) mm,(24.2 ±2.5) cm, (106 ± 15) g/L, (2.2 ±0.4) g/L and (39 ±3) g/Lin the EN group, and they were (16.6 ±2.1) kg/m2, (9.2 ± 1.3) mm, (24.0 ±3.4) cm, (102 ± 18) g/L, (2.0 ±0.4) g/L and (38 ±3) g/L in the PN group, respectively, with no significant differences between the two groups (t =0. 52, 1.72, 0.05, 0.93, 1.94,1.29, P ＞ 0.05). Prealbumin levels, nitrogen balance, time of first flatus, and daily expenses in the EN group were (0.30 ±0.10) g/L,0.8 ±0.3, (29 ± 10) hours and (210 ±30) yuan, while they were (0.25 ±0.09) g/L,0. 4 ± 0.2, (38±6) hours and ( 700 ± 50) yuan in the PN group, respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups ( t = 2. 03, 6. 08, 2. 25, 10. 38, P ＜ 0.05 ). One patient had dysbacteriosis, two were glycometabolic and two had a hepatic disorder in the EN group, while the corresponding numbers in the PN group were 9, 12 and 15 patients, respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups ( x2 =7.68, 9.32,13.87, P ＜ 0.05). Conclusions Nutritional support can promote the recovery of gastric cancer patients undergoing LRG. The efficacy of EN is superior to that of PN, and EN is the method of choice for nutritional support.

Objective To study the effect of hyperlipidemia on postoperative complications in patients of colorectal cancer (CRC) undergoing open or laparoscopic surgery. Methods Clinical data of 382 CRC patients who received either traditional or laparoscopic operation from Mar. 2005 to Sep. 2009 were reviewed. By preoperative blood lipid levels, patients were divided into hyperlipidemia group and normal blood lipid group. Data were analyzed by Chi-square test and T test. Results In hyperlipidemia group of 201 CRC cases, volume of blood loss ( t = 11.318, P ＜ 0.01 ), time to resume oral intake( t =5.956, P ＜ 0.01 ), drainage tube removing (t = 4.781, P ＜ 0.01 ), hospital stay( t = 2.449, P ＜ 0.05 ), and incidence of wound liquefaction( x2 =3.988 ,P ＜0.05) were inferior to the other 181 cases in normal blood lipid group, while no difference was observed in operation time ( t = 0.374, P ＞ 0.05 ) and incidence of anastomotic leakage( x2 = 0.239, P ＞ 0.05 ). Patients who received laparoscopic operation had less blood loss (t=10.078 ,P ＜0.01 ), less time to resume oral intake(t =6.366,P ＜0.01 ) and earlier drainage tube removing ( t = 7.654, P ＜ 0.01 ), shorter hospital stay ( t = 4.241, P ＜ 0.01 ) and lower incidence of wound liquefaction ( x2 = 5. 203, P ＜ 0.05 ), though longer operation time ( t = 8.456, P ＜ 0.01 ) comparing with those receiving traditional operation. Among patients who received laparoscopic operation, there was no difference observed postoperatively in time to resume oral intake ( t = 0.356, P ＞ 0.05 ) and drainage tube removing (t = 0.261, P ＞ 0.05 ), and hospital stay (t = 0.248, P ＞ 0.05 ) between the hyperlipidemia group and normal blood lipid group, though the former suffered from more blood loss (t =8.784,P ＜0.01).Conclusions Hyperlipidemia impacts adversely on hemorrhage, delayed recovery and increasing rate of wound liquefaction on rectal cancer surgery. Laparoscopic surgery effectively eliminates prolonged postoperative recovery caused by hyperlipidemia.

The M and NP genes of H5N1 avian influenza virus (A/chicken/Hubei/489/2004) were amplified by RT-PCR from viral RNA,and cloned into pMD 18-T vector respectively.The expression plasmid containing the M gene (pHM6-m) or the NP gene (pHM6-np) was then constructed by inserting the M or NP gene into the pHM6 eukaryote expression vector; the constructed plasmid was then sequenced.32 BALB/c mice (6-week-old) were divided into four groups at random.Three groups of BALB/c mice were inoculated one time the intramuscular route with either 30 μg of plasmid pHM6-m,30 μg of plasmid pHM6-np or the mixture of plasmid pHM6-m (15 μg ) and pHM6-np(15 μg) respectively.A additional group of mice were injected with 100 μ1 PBS as controls.Two weeks later,all mice were challenged with homologous H5N1 avian influenza virus,and observed in the following 12 days.The survival rates of mice in the pHM6-m group,the pHM6-np group and mixed plasmids group were 62.5% ,25.0% and 50.0%,respectively.Results showed that effective protection could be provided by either pHM6-m or pHM6-np,but pHM6-m provided a better protective effect than pHM6-np.
