The knowledge of surface anatomy in the ancient classic Zhenjiu Jiayi Jing (A-B Classic of Acupuncture and Moxibustion) is expounded in this article through comprehensive reading of the book and study of surface anatomy. The description and application of body surface landmarks,recording of the length of skeleton at the surface of the body,location of the viscera,palpation on arteries at the surface of the body and dynamic selection of acupoints are studied as well,which provide basis for locating and selecting of acupoints.

Hemodynamics changes in pregnant women,cardiac output increases by 50％,increasing the burden of cardiovascular system.It leads to further aggravation of original cardiovascular diseases during pregnancy,and non-pregnancy potential cardiovascular diseases will show up.Advanced age,obesity and diabetes etc.are risk factors of cardiovascular diseases,and they are more common in pregnant women than those non-pregnant,thus incidence rate of cardiovascular diseases increase in pregnant women consequently,making 1％～4％pregnancy more compli-cated than the normal pregnancy,which is also an important reason leading to pregnant woman death and adverse outcomes such as premature birth and stillbirth.Treatment during pregnancy should consider impact of fetus,there-fore its more complicated and difficult for clinical treatment of cardiovascular diseases during pregnancy.The pres-ent article mainly elaborates influence of cardiovascular diseases on pregnancy,including gestational hypertension,gestational diabetes and perinatal cardiomyopathy.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the feasibility of improving the sensitivity of DNA detection by increasing the PCR cycle index and decreasing the volume of amplifying system. METHODS: The DNA of semen were collected from 10 healthy irrelevant volunteers, and were quantified to 50, 40, 30, 25, 20, 15, 10 pg/microL, separately. All samples were then amplified in 10, 5, 3 microL volume and at 28, 30, 32, 34, 36 cycles, respectively. 3130 genetic analyzer was used to detect 15 autosomal STR loci. RESULTS: Under the situation of 28 cycles and 3 microL volume, samples which achieved > 40 pg/microL could be correctly typed. Under the situation of 10, 5, 3 microL volume, samples which achieved > 20 pg/microL could be correctly typed at 34 cycles. When increasing the index to 36 cycles, they could not be correctly typed because of the non-specific band. CONCLUSION DNA detecting sensitivity can be improved to a certain extent by increasing the cycle index and decreasing the volume of amplifying system.
