2.Gene Therapy of Spinal Cord Injury
Progress in Biochemistry and Biophysics 2001;28(1):29-32
Gene therapy of spinal cord injury (SCI) is the most promising method compared with the others, because it doesn't involve the problems of resource and higher exclusion which respectively exists in fetal nerve transplantation and peripheral nerve transplantation. There are two ways of gene therapy to be chosen: one is to transfer objective genes to the target-cells in vivo directly; the other is to transfer objective genes to one proper kind of transplantable cells firstly, then graft the highest expressing cells to the target-cells in vivo. To realize the transfer of genes to cells, two measures are used in common: physical or chemical measure such as micro infection et al and biochemical measure i. e. gene modified defective virus. Although there are some questions unresolved in this field, the clinical value of gene therapy of SCI in the future is depended.
3.Validation of a Chinese version of Death Attitude Profile-Revised
Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2011;27(8):51-53
Objective To develop a Chinese version of Death Attitude Proevaluate its reliability and validity by applying it in the Chinese Christians.Methods After undergoing forward and backward translation of the DAP-R by expert consultation and in-depth interview,150 Christians over 40 years old were recruited to complete the Chinese version of DAP-R,And then factor analysis,correlation analysis and reliability analysis were applied to establish the scale's construct validity and reliability.Results The final scale consisted of five dimensions with 25 items; the varimax rotation factor analysis of the scale identified seven principal factors and explained for 67.075% variances; the correlation coefficient between each item and its domain was 0.432~0.850; Cronbach's α coefficient of five domains were 0.585~0.853,the Cronbach's α and split-half coefficient for the whole scale were 0.840 and 0.843 respectively.Conclusions The Chinese version of DAP-R possesses acceptable validity and reliability in the setting of Christians,and more in-depth study on the scale needs to be done in a wider population.

Chinese Traditional Patent Medicine 1992;0(02):-
To investigate the quality of prepared pieces of Stephania tetrandra S.the content of total alkaloids and tetrandrine of the products prepared by 10 different prepared pieces of Chinese medicine factories has been determined. In conclusion, it is practicable to prescribe the content of total alkaloids and tetrandrine for 3% and 1%, respectively.
5.Treatment of non-small cell lung carcinoma by hyperthermia therapy combined with chemotherapy
Chinese Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery 2001;0(06):-
Objective To evaluate therapeutic effects of hyperthermia therapy in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of nonsmall cell lung carcinoma. Methods Fifty-two patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma underwent hyperthermia therapy in combination with chemotherapy(NP regimen) in this hospital between September 2003 and November 2006.The therapeutic effects were evaluated after 3 cycles of the combination therapy,and were compared with those from 16 patients receiving only chemotherapy between January 2006 and November 2006.Results The combination therapy offered significantly better curative short-term effects than the simple chemotherapy.The total response rate was 65.4%(34/52) for the combination therapy and 37.5%(6/16) for the simple chemotherapy(Z=-2.419,P=0.016).Significant pain relief was achieved in patients after the combination therapy,while no analgesic effect was noted after the simple chemotherapy,the difference between the two groups of patients being statistically significant(Z=6.486,P=0.000).There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups,which mainly included nausea,granulocytopenia,thrombocytopenia,and abnormal liver functions.Conclusions Hyperthermia therapy in combination with chemotherapy compares favorably to simple chemotherapy in the treatment of non-small cell lung carcinoma.
6.Pregnancy in renal transplant recipient: A case report and review
Journal of Peking University(Health Sciences) 2009;41(6):710-711
SUMMARY In recent years, successful pregnancies in renal transplant women have been reported worldwide. However, pregnancy in renal trasplant recipient is relatively rare in China. This paper reported a case of pregnancy 2 years post renal transplant. At the end of 28 weeks' gestation she had abnormal liver and renal function complicated with severe preeclampsia. Literatures were reviewed on considerations about pregnancy in renal transplant women. Maternal and neonatal outcomes can be improved by intensive care during pregnancy, proper immunosupression and timely termination of pregnancy.

Objective:To determine the changes of intramucosal pH(pHi) after severe craniocerebral injuries and the correlation to bleeding from stress ulceration. Methods:Nineteen cases of severe head trauma patients were enrolled, their pHi were determined at different time point with tonometry. The pH of gastric juice and plasma gastrin concentrations were monitored for 7 days. Results:Five cases(bleeding group) developed stress ulcer bleeding. On admission, the pHi were not significantly different in the non bleeding group, but the differences between two groups at 12 hours, 24 hours, the 3rd day, the 5th day, the 7th day after admission were significant, pHi in the bleeding group was statistically lower than non bleeding group. The pH values of gastric juice and the plasma gastrin concentrations were not different significantly between two groups during each therapeutic periods. Conclusion:Bleeding group had significantly lower pHi than non bleeding group during the therapeutic periods. pHi was predictive for bleeding from stress ulceration after severe craniocerebral injury.
8.The Bibliometric Analysis on the Application Status of EQ-5D and SF-6D in Cost-Utility Analysis in the Recent 10 Years:Based on PubMed Data Base
Chinese Health Economics 2014;(3):12-15
Objective: To analyze the application status of the EQ-5D and SF-6D in cost-utility analysis ( CUA) . Methods: The data from PubMed data base from 2003-2012 was conducted as the main resource in econometric analysis. Results: There is no certain increasing trend of literature quantity in the recent 10 years’ application of EQ-5D and SF-6D in the CUA. The main published language was English and the main country was the United Kingdom. The core authors of researches on the CUA estimated by EQ-5D and SF-6D had not been formed, however, the core periodicals had been formed. The literatures involve wide-spread diseases, mainly known as Motion system and pain diseases. Most of the effectiveness could be calculated with quality adjusted life year ( QALY) , the object of CUA is mainly on the medicine, operation and health intervention. Conclusion: Appicating EQ-5D and SF-6D in CUA and research content of the literatures has wide distribution width, although it has shown centralized trend, which still needs more studies by related researchers.
9.Hypoxia increases IRAK-4 expression in cultured murine N9 microglia cells
Journal of Third Military Medical University 2002;0(12):-
Objective To explore the mechanism of the microglia inflammatory response through observing the changes of interleukin-1 receptor associated kinase-4(IRAK-4) expression in murine N9 microglia cells under hypoxia.Methods N9 cells were exposed to 3%O2,5%CO2,92%N2 for 1,3,6,12 and 24 h respectively.The IRAK-4 protein level was detected by Western blotting and the celluar change was observed by laser scanning confocal microscope(LSCM).The TNF-? level was measured by ELISA.Results After hypoxia,the expression of IRAK-4 protein was increased in a time-dependent manner.The elevation began at 1 h after hypoxia,increased significantly at 3 h(P0.05).The fluorescence intensity of IRAK-4 also increased with the extension of anoxic time.The TNF-? level change were similar.There were significant positive correlations between the expression of IRAK-4 and TNF-?(P
