The international Non-governmental Organizations ( NGOs) have been playing an important role in the field of global health, which also represents a channel for countries' international experience. This research fo-cuses on the role of NGOs in global health, their governance tools, global health program management experience, and current status of development for Chinese NGOs. In light of international experiences, we suggest the Chinese government to support a few top NGOs to engage intensely in global health, build management and cooperation mechanism with NGO which will be considered as important complemertary role. The Chinese government shonld implement “major support and comprehensive improvement” strategy.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of platinum-based chemotherapy combined radiotherapy for cervical cancer.Methods From October 2008 to June 2010,61 patients with cervical cancer were treated by radiotherapy( conventional external radiation and after-loading brachytherapy,to a total dose of 8000- 8500 cGy)combined platinum-based chemotherapy (cisplatin or nedaplatin 20 mg/m2,one times per weeks) in our department.The clinical efficacy and side effects were evaluated.Results Among 61 patients,the short-term effective rate was 100％ ( 61/61 ) and 1-year survival rate was 85.2％ ( 52/61 ).There was no significant difference between cisplatin group and nedaplatin in 1-year survival rate ( 84.6％ vs.85.7％,x2 =0.014,P=0.095).Arrest of bone marrow at Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳlevel occurred 5,24,5 and 1 patients in the cisplatin group,and 6,12,3 and 3 patients in the nedaplatin group.There was also no significant difference between these two groups in great mass side effects induced by chemoradiotherapy (x2 =6.402,P =0.171 ).Conclusion It is worth practising of platinum-based chemotherapy combined radiotherapy for cervical carcinoma.The side effects induced by chemoradiotherapy is low.

After introduction into Chinese academy, and in the application in health care domain, the usage ofmotivation and related concepts has been changed. The changes were partly due to pragmatic utility, and caused confusion in the application of motivation theory in Chinese human resource for health. Both English and Chinese lit-erature was reviewed and systematic literature review was applied. We analyzed the different definitions of motiva-tion in English, and how they were used and understand in Chinese academia in history. Motivation was divided into three Chinese concepts, representing the process of motivation, inner driver of motivation and psychological state of being motivated. The other usage changes include willful exchange ofincentive andmotivation;motivationbeing used more as a means to motivate than a motivational process;the result of motivation as an aroused psychologi-cal state not seriously defined. Systematic literature review revealed the distribution of various motivation topics in Chinese literature and supported the abovementioned arguments. These changes of usage could cause barriers to re-search of human resource for health in China. It is recommended that usage ofmotivation should be clarified in ac-ademia in China and the process of motivation rather than motivation as a managerial means deserves more attention.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of fiberoptic bronchoscope( FOB )-guided tracheal intubation with laryngeal mask airway (LMA) in patients undergoing anterior cervical spine surgery.MethodsForty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes,aged 18-55 yr,weighing 50-75 kg,mallampatis Ⅰ or Ⅱ,scheduled for anterior cervical spine surgery under general anesthesia,were randomly divided into 2 groups( n =20 each): FOBguide tracheal intubation (group FOB) and FOB-guided tracheal intubation with LMA group (group LMA).Anesthesia was induced with mindazolam 0.04 mg/kg,fentany 3-4 μg/kg,cis-atracuriun 0.2 mg/kg and propofol 2 mg/kg.Tracheal intubation was performed at 3 min after cis-artracurium iv.Auditory evoked potential index was maintained at 10-20.The intubation time,the number of successful intubation,hypertension,tachycardia and hypoxemia were recorded.The number of successful LMA placement,LMA placement time and LMA shift after extubation were recorded.Blood stain at LMA removal and complications were also recorded.ResultsThe rate of successful LMA placement at first attempt was 90％ and placement time was ( 13 ± 3) s.The rate of successful intubation in the both groups was 100％.The intubation time was significantly shorter and the rate of successful intubation at first attempt was higher in group LMA than in group FOB ( P ＜ 0.05).Hypertension,tachycardia and hypoxemia were not found in the two groups.The number of LMA shift was 8 (40％).The number of blood stain and slight sore throat was 1 respectively in group LMA.There was no other complications in the both groups.Conclusion FOB-guided tracheal intubation with LMA can provide effective ventilation during operation,improve the success rate at first attempt and shorten the intubation time in patients undergoing cervical spine surgery.

Objective To investigate the effects of intravenous penehyclidine hydrochloride or doxofylline on respiratory mechanics during non-thoracotomy in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods One hundred and thirty-five ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients with COPD, aged 55-86 yr, weighing 44-78 kg,scheduled for elective non-thoracotomy under general anesthesia, were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 45 each): control group (group C), penehyclidine hydrochloride group (group P) and doxofylline group (group D).Anesthesia was induced with fentanyl 4 μg/kg, propofol 1.5 rg/kg and cis-atracurium 0.2 mg/kg. The patients were tracheal intubated and mechanically ventilated. PETCO2 was maintained at 40 mm Hg. At 5 rin after tracheal intubation, penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.01 mg/kg was injected intravenously in group P, and doxofylline 4 mg/kg was injected intravenously in group D. The equal volume of normal saline was injected intravenously in group C. Anesthesia was maintained with propofol 5 mg· kg- 1 · h- 1, eis-atracurium 0.2 mg· kg- 1 · h- 1, and intermittent iv boluses of fentsnyl. The auditory evoked potential index was maintained at 15-20 during operation. The peak airway pressure, airway plateau pressure, lung compliance and airway resistance were recorded immediately before administration, and at 30, 45 and 60 rin after administration. Results Compared with group C, the peak airway pressure, airway plateau pressure and airway resistance were significantly decreased, while the lung compliance was significantly increased at each time point after administration in groups P and D ( P ＜ 0.05 ). There was no significant difference in the parameters of respiratory mechanics at each time point between group P and group D ( P ＞ 0.05). Conclusion Both intravenous penehyclidine hydrochloride and doxofylline can improve respiratory mechanics during non-thoracotomy in patients with COPD.

Objective To investigate the effects of Puerarin on glucose and lipid metabolism and gastric motility in early period type 2 diabetic (T2DM) rats.Methods Rat model of T2DM was established by high fat-sugar diet fed and low-dose streptozotocin-treated. SD rats were divided randomly into normal control group (NC), normal+Puerarin group (NP), diabetes control group (DC) and diabetes+Puerarin group (DP). NP and DP rats were given Puerarin 400 mg/(kg?d) once per day for 5 weeks, NC and DC rats were given PBS. Half time of gastric emptying and emptying rate were evaluated by SPECT. The serum level of FBG, GSP, FFA, TC, TG and INS were measured by kit.Results Compared with NC group, DC rats had higher FBG, FFA, TC, GSP, TG and emptying rate, but INS and half time of gastric emptying decreased significantly (P<0.05,P<0.01). Compared with DC group, TG, GSP, FFA and emptying rate of DP rats were reduced (P<0.05), but had more half time of gastric emptying (P<0.05). The results of multivariate stepwise regression analysis showed that FBG related to half time of gastric emptying.Conclusion Type 2 diabetic rats have faster gastric motility, higher blood glucose and lipid. Puerarin might improve the disorders of GSP, TG, FFA and gastric emptying in diabetic rats.

Objective To investigate the effect of microRNA-101 (miRNA-101) on atrial fibrosis in human chronic atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods Right atrial appendages were obtained from 59 patients (30 with AF) undergoing cardiac surgery, including 47 patients with valve heart disease and 12 patients with congenital heart disease. The expression of miRNA-101 was determined by quantitative real-time PCR in the right atrial appendages of patients with and without AF. The cell-specific localization of miRNA-101 was detected by in situ hybridization assay. The mRNA and protein expression levels of transforming growth factor β typeⅠreceptor (TGFβRⅠ) and collagen type I (COL1) were determined by quantitative real-time PCR and Western-blot assay, respectively. Collagen in the right atrial appendages was observed by Masson staining assay. Results The expression of miRNA-101 was found to be significantly down-regulated in AF patients compared with patients with sinus rhythm (SR) (P < 0.05). The result of miRNA-ISH showed that miRNA-101, which was highly distributed within the connective tissues of heart, was down-regulated at about 24.9% in patients with AF compared with patients with SR. No significant differences at the mRNA expression level of TGFβRI was found between patients with AF and patients with SR (P > 0.05). But the protein expression of TGFβRI in patients with AF was significantly higher than that of patients with SR (P < 0.05). The mRNA and protein expressionsl of COL1 were significantly higher in patients with AF than thoset of patients with SR (P < 0.05). The collagen was significantly increased in patients with AF than that of patients with SR (P < 0.05). Conclusions Downregulation of miRNA-101 may contribute to atrial fibrosis in human atrial fibrillation by targeting TGFβRⅠ.
