Strengthening the construction of open optional courses of medicine in universities is necessary for us to make good use of the teaching resources,to optimize the open optional courses system,and to improve the quality education.This thesis analyzes the problems of open optional courses of medicine in the university by questionnaire.It brings out ways to further improve the construction of open optional courses of medicine in universities.

Global minimum essential requirements in medical education(GMER) was established by the Institute for Intemational Medical Education(IIME),which consisted of members from all over the world,the GMER should be reached by all of the graduates.This paper analyzes the importance and possibilities that the university of the extrovert type ushers in the international medical education standard,and according to actual work,put forward some suggestions.

AIM: To observe the relationship between noradrenaline and the synaptic configuration in rat hippocampus CA3 area. METHODS: Noradrenergic system injured models were produced by injecting 6-hydroxydopamine into rats' bilateral dorsal noradrenergic bundle. Then Y-type maze tests and elicitation of P3-like were carried out respectively before and after the model was established. The parameters of synaptic configuration in the hippocampus CA3 areas were also analyzed quantitatively. RESULTS: The decreases in the thickness of postsynaptic density material, the curvature of synaptic interface and the occurrence of perforated synapses, and the increase in the width of synaptic cleft were observed. CONCLUSION: The normal noradrenalin level in hippocampus is necessary to maintain the normal synaptic interface ultrastructure in hippocampus CA3 area.

AIM and METHODS: The purpose of the study was to characterize the time-related effect of Danazol therapy on endometriosis explant using the rat model. Endometriosis was induced in mature female rats. One group of treated animals as well as controls were sacrificed at 2,4,6 and 8 weeks after treatment at which time the explant was evaluated. RESULTS: Explant volume was significantly reduced in all treatment groups, and the effect was more significant in animals treated for 4 weeks than those treated for only 2 weeks. CONCLUSION: Danazol treatment can cause gradual regression of endometrial explant in a time-related manner.

Objective To study the protective effect of GYY4137 on rat myocardial cells infected by Coxsackie virus B3 (CVB3) and its signal transduction mechanism.Methods Cardiomyocytes were treated with different concentrations of GYY4137(10,50,100 μmol/L) for 24 hours before addition of 100 TCID50 CVB3 for 2 hours before serum-free conditions.After treatment,the cell viability was ascertained with Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay.At the same time,the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),interleukin-1β (IL-1β),interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the supernatants were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Western blot was used to study the expression of nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) protein and the inhibitory subunit of (IκBα) in myocardial cells.Results After exposure of cardiomyocytes to GYY4137 with different concentration (10,50,100 μmol/L)for 24 hours cell viability had no change.The NF-κB expression and the levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6 [(175.80 ± 5.05) ng/L,(25.80 ± 1.97) ng/L,(65.33 ± 3.51) ng/L] in the GYY4137-treated CVB3 infection group were significantly reduced when compared with untreated CVB3 infection group (P ＜ 0.01),respectively.Compared with the normal group,the GYY4137 concentration-dependently restrained the CVB3-mediated IκBα degradation(P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions GYY4137 exerts anti-inflammatory effects in CVB3-infected cardiomyocytes.This anti-inflammatory mechanism may be associated with suppression of the activation of the NF-κB.

The safety and efficacy of retroperitoneoscopic microwave ablation (MWA) in the treatment of renal hamartoma were evaluated. From July 2007 to July 2009, a total of 16 cases of renal hamartoma were treated with retroperitoneoscopic MWA. Peri- and post-operative findings were observed. Middle-term efficacy was assessed by contrast-enhanced computerized tomography (CT) in follow-up period. All patients received MWA of 1-5 points. The mean operative time was 85 min and the mean blood loss was 65 mL. During a median follow-up of 16 months, no evidence of disease recurrence was observed despite of incomplete ablation in 1 case. Retroperitoneoscopic MWA is a relatively simple procedure with less impact to renal function and less complication. The outcome of middle-term follow-up is satisfactory. Thus, retroperitoneoscopic MWA appears to be a safe and effective technique for renal hamartoma in selected patients.

Simplified dose calculation model with high computation efficiency is often used to generate the dose matrices for beamlets in the inverse planning of the intensity modulate radiation therapy. It is likely that this simplification could degrade the quality of the final treatment plans. This paper is aimed at testing the influence of such simplification in dose calculations of beamlets and accordingly proposing methods to avoid severe degradation of the plans. Two simulation instances were adopted. The primary dose calculation model without involvment of scattering effect was used to generate the dose matrices of beamlets. The differential convolution superposition dose calculation model that well accounts for scattering effect was used to calculate the final dose distributions for given intensity profiles. It is found that the simplification in dose matrices of beamlets degrades the dose levels in the edge area of the targets, however, the degradation could be diminished or even avoided by adding a suitable margin around the targets or by using the multiple-shifted-beamlet-matrices (MSBM) method that was proposed in our previous paper.
