Chinese Medical Ethics 2015;(1):80-82
In this paper, the importance of using advanced medical equipment to check treatment was ana-lyzed, and then pointed out that nowadays there were the following problems: the medical staff had excessive de-pendence on medical equipment; medical equipment inspection treatment of irrationality; medical equipment in-spection treatment with humanity was not enough; medical equipment management of dereliction of duty. Put for-ward to strengthen medical personnel professional moral education;to strengthen the medical students' ethical edu-cation;regular hospital manage concept;improve the cognitive level of medical staff of medical equipment.

3.Ligustrazine inhibited TNF-α-induced TGF-β1 and CTGF expression in human peritoneal mesothelial cells
Basic & Clinical Medicine 2009;29(11):1185-1188
Objective To investigate the effects of Ligustrazine on TNF-α-induced TGF-β and CTGF expression in human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs). Methods HPMCs were isolated from human omenta by trypsin di-gestion. Then, the subcultured HPMCs were divided into control group, TNF-α-induced (1 μg/L) group and TNF-α-induced plus low-, medium-and high-dose Ligustrazine (10, 20 and 40 mg/L Ligustrazine respectively) groups. The viability of HPMCs was measured by MTT assay. RT-PCR was used to detect the expressions of TGF-β1 and CTGF mRNAs in HPMCs. TGF-β1 and CTGF in supernatants were measured by ELISA. Cell protein concentration was measured by trace bicinchoninic acid (BCA) method to validate the ELISA assay results. Results Ligustrazine significantly decreases TNF-α-induced TGF-β1 and CTGF expression in a dose-dependent manner at both protein and gene levels ( P < 0. 05 ). In addition, medium-and high-dose Ligustrazine injection significantly ameliorates the viability of HPMCs inhibited by TNF-α ( P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion Ligustrazine inhibits expressions of TGF-β and CTGF of HPMCs in an inflammatory conditions.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of ilium grafting combined with Duhuojishengtang on the delay fracture healing and explore the effect on hemorheology. Methods Eighty patients with delayed fracture healing were randomly divided into two groups. Forty patients in control group were treated by ilium grafting and 40 patients in observation group were treated by ilium grafting combined with Duhuojishengtang.

Results The cure rate of observation group was 62.5%, which was significantly higher than that of control group 35.0%, the effective rate of observation group was 92.5%, which was significantly higher than that of control group 72.5% (P<0.01) . There were no significant differences between two groups in indexes of hemorheology after ilium grafting (P>0.05) . After the first, second, third course, the indexes of hemorheology of observation group were better than those of control group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05) . Conclusions Ilium grafting com-bined with duhuojishengtang can improve the indexes of hemorheology, improve the cure and effective rate and also has high security. It has high clinical value and worth of popularization and application.
5.Numerical analysis of the effect of capillary geometry on oxygen transport in the microcirculation by MATLAB
Journal of Medical Biomechanics 2009;24(4):263-269
Objective Delivery of oxygen in tissues is limited in the space where oxygen must diffuse between the vascular and the surrounding tissues. Normal capillaries are relatively straight and well spaced, in contrast, the tumor vascular networks usually display more irregularity and the vessel wall shows higher permeability and less elasticity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of capillary elasticity and tortuosity on the oxygen distribution and make further investigation on the mechanism of the formation of hypoxic regions in tumor. Method One-dimensional capillary model was coupled with the oxygen diffusion model. Oxygen transport was investigated in a Krogh and tortuous tissue model. The capillarygeometrywas obtained bythe one-dimensional model and transferred to the tissue model. Finite element method was employed in the analysis. Result The capillary radii along the flow direction under pressures were obtained for different initial radii and the oxygen distribution in the Krogh cylinder tissue model and the model with a tortuous capillary were computed. Conclusions when the capillary radius is small, the effect of vessel elasticity may have not significant effect on the oxygen distribution. However, with the capillary radius increasing, the effect on the oxygen transport becomes obvious. Moreover, with the tortuosity of the capillary increasing, the oxygen distribution becomes more heterogeneous, which is in agreement with the result in available reference. This work will be helpful to the investigation of oxygen transport within tumor.

Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University(Medical Sciences) 1981;0(03):-
Objective To establish a qualitative and quantitative method for controlling the quality of Radix Puerariae and its preparation. Methods The qualitative fingerprint of effective part (extract part of ethyl acetate) was obtained by using RP-HPLC with methanol-water (42∶58) as mobile phase and UV detection at 250 nm . The quantitative measurement of effective components (puerarin and daidzein) was finished under the above chromatographic conditions. And the 11 kinds of different samples of Radix Puerariae were analyzed by the method. Results Under the qualitative conditions, the 5 common peaks in RP-HPLC fingerprint of the effective part could be used as index peaks for qualitative identification. In RP-HPLC quantitative analysis, the recoveries of the method were 98.0% with RSD of 1.30% for puerarin and 95.4% with RSD of 1.61% for daidzein, respectively. The amount of puerarin and daidzein in Radix Puerariae was 0.213%~3.626% and 0.012%~ 0.049% , respectively. Conclusion The analytical method with qualitative fingerprint of effective part and quantitative measurement of effective components of Radix Puerariae can be accurately used for controlling its quality.
