Good regulation of acupuncture in simple obesity patients with stomach-intestine excessive heat type

In order to investigate the regulatory effect of acupuncture on obesity patients with the Stomach-Intestine Excessive Heat Type, the pre-acupunctureal and post-acupunctural obesity index and biochemical indices of 718 simple obesity patients with Stomach-Intestine Excessive Heat Type were observed. It was showed that the marked weight loss effect was achieved in the cases by acupuncture, and the biochemical indices improved. It suggests that acupuncture had a optimal regulatory effect on the function of nerve, endocrine, digestion and energy metabolism.     

Comparison in the immunological properties of Borrelia burgdorferi isolates from Ixodes ricinus derived from three endemic areas in Switzerland.

Borrelia burgdorferi isolates were obtained from Ixodes ricinus from three sites in Switzerland. They were examined by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting. The phenotypes, in respect of three outer surface proteins (Osp), differed between the sites of collection. In site 1, most isolates had an OspA of 31 kDa and an OspB of 34 kDa; in site 2, isolates presenting an OspA of 33 kDa dominated and in site 3, the isolates with an OspA of 32 kDa and an OspB of 35 kDa were most frequent. This distribution differed significantly. About half of the isolates from sites 1 and 3 reacted with anti-OspA monoclonal antibody H5332 compared to 29% from site 2. Site 1 isolates reacted significantly more frequently (81%) with another anti-OspA monoclonal antibody LA-31 than isolates from site 3 (P < 0.0001). These findings have implications for the epidemiology of Lyme borreliosis, for the further development of serodiagnostic reagents and for the development of a vaccine.     

1977～1990年同济医科大学新生视力状况分析

用统计学方法对14年来（1977～1990年）我校6746名新生（13492只眼）的视力状况进行分析。结果表明；新生正常视力逐年减少，视力不良率相应上升（P＜0.001）。城市学生的视力比农村学生差，男生的视力优于女生（P＜0.001）。17～19岁组的视力明显低于其他年龄组（P＜0.001）。高考分数线升高与正常视力者减少呈明显负相关；而与视力不良者增加呈正相关（P＜0.001,＜0.05）。本文认为近距离用眼持续时间过长及环境视域小等是引起视力不良的主要原因。     

Detection of circulating antigen by McAb-AST for evaluating the efficacy of anti-Leishmania chemotherapy.

We have adapted the simple and sensitive McAb-antigen spot test (AST) for evaluating the efficacy of anti-Leishmania chemotherapy. Serum samples from 37 kala-azar patients were tested by McAb-AST, and all showed definite positive reactions before treatment. After a course of antimony treatment, 20 turned negative, coupled with the disappearance of clinical symptoms; another 12 cases responded with weak positivity accompanied by an improvement of clinical manifestations; and the remaining 5 antimony-resistant patients showed strong positive reactions, with their conditions gradually worsening. Furthermore, all 6 cases in which the diagnosis was missed by the bone marrow smear method turned McAb-AST negative after chemotherapy. These results suggest that McAb-AST can be used to evaluate the efficacy of chemotherapy as well as to avoid missed diagnosis by the bone marrow smear method.     

The use of 6-flavor Rehmannia decoction with additives in the prevention of ototoxic deafness induced by gentamicin in guinea pigs]

The purpose of this study is to discuss the effects of the Chinese medicine six-flavor Rehmannia Decoction with additives on preventing deafness induced by gentamicin (GM) in guinea pig by means of testing the thresholds of Preyer's reflex (PR) cochlear microphonic potential (CM), action potential of the auditory nerve (N1) and scanning electron microscope of inner ear (SEM). The results showed that the medicine is effective in reducing the ototoxic effect of GM on inner ear.     

联合国驻利比里亚维和部队二级卫勤保障中航空医疗后送的组织实施

目的 通过伤病人员空运后送的组织实施,了解联合国维和部队快速空中转运系统与卫勤保障. 方法 2004年12月至2005年7月,中国维和医疗分队在非洲执行了联合国利比里亚维和行动中的二级卫勤保障任务.利用联合国在任务区建立的陆空一体化机动后勤保障力量,我们对63例伤病员组织实施了航空医疗后送.通过与维和战区小型军事移动通信单位联络,经卫星远程通讯设施,用电话、传真、电子邮件等与任务区军事指挥、卫生、运输等部门联通.采取多国维和部队联军协调,联合行动,外军护卫,专人陪送,保障伤病员安全与生命.所有伤病员在后送前经严格对症治疗处理,病情稳定.空运机种为俄罗斯米-8通用型直升机和加拿大Duch-7固定翼飞机,采用固定的野战直升机场. 结果 全部伤病员无一例因空运后送死亡或病情加重. 结论 在维和行动中,多国维和部队合作实施安全高效的航空医疗后送伤病人员是新时期我军开展的一项新课题.在联合国维和行动卫勤保障体系框架下,注重联络、协调、理顺与任务区各相关部门关系,配合多国维和军兵种单元联军合作,可以实施高效快速的卫勤行动,提高保障的整体效能.利用维和卫勤保障锻炼部队,是培训和提高我军医务人员综合实战能力的极好时机.     

小檗碱对大鼠阴茎海绵体磷酸二酯酶5mRNA水平的影响

目的 :检测大鼠阴茎海绵体中磷酸二酯酶 5 (PDE5 )mRNA的表达 ,进而探讨小檗碱 (berberine ,Ber)的分子作用机制。　方法 :通过逆转录酶链反应 (RT PCR)技术检测大鼠阴茎海绵体中PDE5mRNA的表达。　结果 :大鼠阴茎海绵体中有PDE5A1和PDE5A2mRNA的表达 ,以PDE5A2为主要的异构酶。与内参照 β 肌动蛋白相比 ,对照组、Ber孵育 1和 3h组的PDE5A1及PDE5A2基因mRNA的相对表达量分别为 :0 .2 2± 0 .0 2 ,0 .4 1± 0 .0 1 ;0 .1 5± 0 .0 1 ,0 .34± 0 .0 2 ;0 .1 0± 0 .0 1 ,0 .1 2± 0 .0 1。与对照组相比 ,PDE5A1、PDE5A2的mRNA表达 ,在Ber孵育 1h组降低了 32 %和 1 7%,3h组降低了 5 5 %和 71 %,其中尤以应用Ber 3h后PDE5A2的mRNA减少最为明显 (n =5 ,P <0 .0 1 )。　结论 :Ber对NO cGMP信号通路的下游关键酶 (PDE5 )具有一定的调控作用 ,尤其是抑制PDE5A2的mRNA表达 ,为Ber治疗勃起功能障碍的分子机制之一。     

氩激光凝固法对糖尿病性视网膜病变的疗效观察

目的 观察糖尿病性视网膜病变(DR)不同分期者接受氩激光治疗的临床效果。方法 采用科以人2000型氩激光组合激光机对170例263只患眼分别做如下处理：(1)对非增殖期糖尿病视网膜病变(NPDR)30眼行局部氩激光凝固术(光凝)；(2)对增殖前期糖尿病视网膜病变(PPDR)156眼行次全视网膜光凝；(3)对增殖期糖尿病视网膜病变(PDR)77眼行全视网膜光凝，对合并黄斑局限或弥漫性水肿者给予局灶性光凝或格栅样光凝。于光凝后3个月检查。进行视力、眼底、视网膜荧光血管造影，并与治疗前各项结果对比。结果 视力提高92眼(35％)、无变化144眼(55％)、下降27眼(10％)。眼底检查、荧光血管造影复查示：NPDR、PPDR眼视网膜微血管瘤、水肿、渗出消退，荧光渗漏消退占89％。其余11％需补充光凝。PDR眼视网膜、视盘新生血管消退占67％，33％为部分消退需补充光凝。黄斑水肿完全或部分消退占91％，光凝后出现视网膜前灶性出血占8％，玻璃体积血为1％。结论 氩激光对不同分期DR均有效。NPDR、PPDR效果好于PDR眼，后者光凝后荧光血管造影复查以及补充光凝对提高疗效非常必要。
