科学美是美学形态分类中的一种 ,它从本质上反映事物运动的内在联系 ,属于美的深层形式。中医理论中存在简明、对称、新奇等科学美     

纸本与数字的交互：手机阅读的最佳效果

随着全球3G商用的推进和拥有大容量存储能力的智能终端的日益普及,手机正逐步演变成为一个新型的数字阅读终端。利用手机进行电子阅读的全新模式,正以前所未有的普及速度冲击着人们的阅读习惯。而这趋势也逐渐为"阅读"进行重新的定义。对于每一个读者而言,在这样一个信息化的时代里,手机阅读和纸本阅读的交互使用、取长补短,才是获得最佳阅读效果的最有效方式。     

对《诸病源候论》毒邪症状界定的分析

《诸病源侯论》论毒邪篇幅之多,明目之清,发前人所未发,打破传统束缚,注重临床实际。如其提出毒邪判断要以阴阳为纲;毒邪向内为病重,向外为病轻;赤白为轻,青紫黑为重;过肘膝为重,以及伤肠胃心肝脾肾均有不同的症状特征,提示了六淫从化于毒,毒邪与六淫有不同表现等问题,值得一读。     

上睑下垂的术前评估及改良提上睑肌缩短术矫治的疗效评价

目的评价改良提上睑肌缩短术矫治上睑下垂的效果。方法采用改良提上睑肌缩短术[此改良术式与常规术式不同之处在于增加分离提上睑肌腱膜的长度(22mm)和宽度(16mm),腱膜在睑板上固4对缝线,以增加其牢固度],共治疗上睑下垂57例68眼,其中轻度13例13眼,中度38例47眼,重度6例8眼。结果术后4～36个月随访,治愈48例59眼,欠矫9例9眼,无过矫病例。结论该提上睑肌缩短术与常规手术比较有改进,术后的睑缘高度易保持在上方角膜缘,弧度与健侧对称,不易形成眼角畸形,能较好提高矫治效果。     

Health-related quality of life and its predictive role for analgesic effect in patients with painful polyneuropathy.

Painful polyneuropathy is a common neuropathic pain condition. The present study describes health-related quality of life (HRQL) in a sample of patients with painful polyneuropathy of different origin and the possible predictive role of HRQL for analgesic effect. Ninety-three patients with a diagnosis of painful polyneuropathy were included in the analysis. Data were obtained from three randomised, placebo-controlled cross-over studies testing the effect of different drugs on polyneuropathic pain (St. John's wort, venlafaxine/imipramine and valproic acid). Patients completed a HRQL questionnaire (SF-36) after a drug-free baseline period and at the end of each treatment period. At baseline, all eight SF-36 scores were lower than in the normal population. No significant differences were found between SF-36 scales during placebo and treatment with valproic acid and St. John's wort. Those two drugs had not shown a pain relieving effect in former analysis. The SF-36 scale of bodily pain (BP) was improved by venlafaxine treatment (p=0.023). General health (GH) and vitality (VT) were improved under treatment with imipramine (GH: p=0.006, VT: p=0.015). In a multivariate logistic regression analysis, baseline SF-36 scores predicted subsequent response to pharmacological treatment. Results show an impaired HRQL in painful polyneuropathy and suggest that HRQL may predict response to analgesic treatment.     

Integrating Nursing Care into Systems of Care for Children with Emotional and Behavioral Disorders

PROBLEM: Recent developments in providing care to children with emotional and behavioral disorders, especially those with serious emotional disturbance, have included the establishment of systems of care. Guided by a set of principles and values, these systems of care have organized and delivered services to children and families with complex needs. To date, nurses have not had a salient role in systems of care. RESULTS: It is estimated that 20% of American children and adolescents have an emotional or mental disorder. As many as two thirds of these children are not receiving services. Systems of care have been funded to provide services for these children, particularly for the most severely affected. To date, nursing has not had a prominent role in these systems of care. CONCLUSIONS: Based on their knowledge, skills, and holistic approach to care, nurses could better integrate nursing care into systems of care. Possible roles as case managers, primary therapists, in-home interventionists, and in educational programs are suggested.

瑞格列奈与迪沙片治疗新诊断2型糖尿病的疗效对比观察

比较对新诊断2型糖尿病患者应用瑞格列奈（11例）和迪沙片（10例）治疗4周后空腹血糖（FPG）、餐后2h血糖（2hPG）、晨3点血糖（3aPG）,空腹胰岛素（FIns）、餐后2h胰岛素（2hIns）,糖化白蛋白的值。结果显示,与迪沙片组相比,瑞格列奈组治疗后空腹血糖、餐后2h血糖的下降幅度更为明显,但低血糖的发生次数反而减少。     

Iron deficiency down-regulates the Akt/TSC1-TSC2/mammalian Target of Rapamycin signaling pathway in rats and in COS-1 cells

Iron deficiency (ID) is one of the most commonly known forms of nutritional deficiencies. Low body iron is thought to induce neurologic defects but may also play a protective role against cancer development by cell growth arrest. Thus, ID may affect cellular pathways controlling cell growth and proliferation, the mechanism of which is still not fully understood. The serine/threonine protein kinase Akt and its downstream target, the mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR), is known to play a crucial role in the regulation of cell growth and survival. Therefore, we hypothesized that Akt/mTOR pathway could be influenced by ID. Three-week-old male Wistar-strain rats were divided into 3 groups and the 2 groups had free access to a control diet (C group) or an iron-deficient diet (D group). The third group (PF group) were pair-fed the control diet to the mean intake of the D group. After 4 weeks, rats were killed and their brains were sampled. In separate experiments, COS-1 cells were cultured with or without the iron chelator deferoxamine. Western blots of brain samples and COS-1 lysates were used to analyze the expression and phosphorylation state of Akt, TSC2, mTOR, and S6 kinase proteins implicated in the Akt/mTOR pathway. Using 2 different ID models, we show for the first time that iron deficiency depresses Akt activity in rats and in COS-1 cells, leading to a decrease in mTOR activity.
