0.05). Regarding to the grade of irradiation mucositis, the majority of patients in the treatment group were at stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ,while those in the control at stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ(P0.05).No adverse drug reaction was observed in both groups during irradiation process.Conclusion:Actovegin can postpone the development of irradiation oropharyngeal mucositis and decrease the incidence of gradeⅢ and Ⅳmucositis.

Objective To discuss the valuable influence of the total-body massage on the facilitation of the rehabilitation for the women in puerperium.Methods Both Chinese traditional medical total-body massage and the biological information theories and its methodology were employed in dealing with 50 cases of puerperants without contraindications,who had labored naturally 12 hours before and who had received cesarean sections 48 hours before. The results were compared with the control group in which conventional preventive health care for puerperants was adopted.Results Notable differences exist in the aspect of lochia,defecation,lactation and emotions between the two groups.Conclusion Significant benefits can be obtained from the massage to facilitate the rehabilitation of the women in puerperium while promoting their quality of lives and broadening the coverage of services of the preventive health care for the puerperants.

To investigate the therapeutic effect of artesunate on mouse cytomegalovirus pneumonia, the BALB/c-nu mice were infected with murine cytomegalovirus-green fluorescent protein (MCMV-GFP) by nose dropping method. The experimental protocol was approved by the Medical Laboratory Animal Ethics Committee of Guangzhou Medical University. The BALB/c-nu mice were randomly divided into five groups: control group, MCMV pneumonia group, and artesunate (60, 120, and 240 mg·kg^-1) groups. The survival rate, weights, and virus loads in lungs among the groups were observed. The degree of histopathologic changes in lungs was assessed directly by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) assay. MCMV-GFP expression was assessed by immunofluorescence. In addition, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis was performed to investigate the content of major immediate early 1 (Mie1) mRNA, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the changes of inflammatory factors, interleukin 10 (IL-10), IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Western blot analysis was used to detect the expression of the changes of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathways in total proteins. Compared with MCMV group, artesunate (120 mg·kg^-1) significantly increased body weights of MCMV-infected nude mice over 30 days, and decreased the viral titer in lung homogenate, lung inflammation, and histological severity. Moreover, the administration of artesunate (120 mg·kg^-1) could downregulate the expression of phospho-NF-κB (p-NF-κB) p65 in the lungs of mice. The present study suggested that artesunate can protect the immunocompromised mice from MCMV-induced interstitial pneumonia via downregulating NF-κB signaling pathway, thus attenuating inflammation in the lungs.

Objective To reveal and forecast the incidence trend of Brucellosis, in order to provide acientific basis for future intervention and policy-making. Methods Descriptive epidemiological method was used to analyze and statistically describe the distribution of the disease in different times, different locations and different (7.0783/10 million to 13.1257/10 million) and Qingxu ( 1.4811/10 million to 8.5241/10 million) were higher,followed by Yangqu county(0 to 5.8232/10 million), Xiaodian(0.8108/l0 million to 2.4229/10 million) and Jinyuan district ( 0.5329/ 10 million to 1.5896/10 million), and the remaining counties(districts) in the annual There were 223 cases of Brucellosis patients from 2006 to 2009 in Taiyuan. Vocational high risk population was farmers, with a total of 140 cases, accounting for 62.78% of the total number of incidence, followed by students and workers, respectively, 13, 14 cases, accounting for 5.83% and 6.28%, other occupational groups, 56 cases,77.58%;28 cases aged above 60 years, accounting for 12.56%;22 cases aged younger than 19 years, accounting identical in the four years, most cases occurred in spring and summer and showing a clear seasonal high.Conclusions The incidence trend of Brucellosis is on the rise from 2006 to 2009. High risk population is farmer,and the number of younger patients is on the rise, we propose strengthen protection for high risk groups.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the fungal composition in Massa Medicata Fermentata based on culture dependent method and independent PCR-SSCP technique.

METHODFungi were directly isolated from Massa Medicata Fermentata samples. The obtained strains were identified according to morphology and DNA sequence. Meanwhile the total fungal DNA was extracted from Massa Medicata Fermentata samples, the cultural independent PCR-SSCP technique based on β-tubulin gene were used to identify the mycobiota.

RESULTAccording to cultural method, Aspergillus flavus and Rhizopus oryzae were present in Massa Medicata Fermentata samples, while A. flavus and A. niger were present in fried Massa Medicata Fermentata samples. In contrast, 5 species were obtained by PCR-SSCP technique, A. flavus was overlapped with fungal taxa derived from culture dependent method; A. ambiguu and A. s ivoriensis were dominant with relative abundance of 57% and 35% respectively, while the relative abundance of A. flavus was as low as 4%. None species was obtained from fried Massa Medicata Fermentata samples.

CONCLUSIONPCR-SSCP based on β-tubulin gene could distinguish fungi into species, culture dependent method combined with culture independent method could better understand the fungal composition associated with Massa Medicata Fermentata fermentation.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency of emergency surgery to consecutive 258 infants suffering with critical congenital heart diseases (CHD). Methods From January 2006 and February 2009,emergency surgery was performed within 24 h after definite diagnosis on 258 children with critical congenital heart diseases,including 150 males (58.1%) and 108 females (41.9%),with a mean age of (7.5?4.3) months (ranging from 6 d to 11 months),at a mean weight of (5.5?3.3) kg (ranging from 2.1 to 9.5 kg). Complications such as refractory pneumonia,heart failure,repeated episodes of hypoxic spells,kidney dysfunction,liver dysfunction,severe anaemia or growth retardation were found in 233 infants (90.2%). Totally 246 (95.3%) of them were operated on CPB with heart arrested,and 12 (4.7%) with patent ductus arteriosus and operated off pump. Results This group of patients had a stage-one corrective rate of 92.3%,and a total curative rate of 96.9%. In infants operated with heart arrested and with heart beating,the duration of cardiopulmonary bypass was 105.00?38.71 min and (71.89?27.78) min respectively,postoperative ventilation duration was (16.5?9.3) h,intensive care unit (ICU) staying duration was (98.5?33.6) h. After operation,low cardiac output syndrome occourred with a rate of 6.9% and severe complications of major organs with a rate of 12.9%. Of 8 (3.1%) dead infants,7 were diagnosed with complicated CHD. Five died of low cardiac output syndrome,1 of arrhythmia,1 of respiratory failure and 1 of arrhythmic heart. Conclusion Emergency surgical treatment should be performed as soon as definite diagnosis for critical infants with congenital heart disease. Heart failure,respiratory failure,liver dysfunction,severe anaemia and infection are not contraindications to surgical treatment. However,complex anomalies and younger age are considered to be the most risk factors for surgery of infants with CHD.
