Rethinking about acupuncture intervention opportunity based on dynamic perspective of inflammatory response. / åŸºäºŽç‚Žæ€§ååº”åŠ¨æ€æ€§è§†åŸŸä¸‹å¯¹é’ˆç¸ä»‹å ¥æ—¶æœºçš„å†æ€è€ƒ.

Acupuncture and moxibustion therapies are widely used in the field of anti-inflammation, but the dynamic characteristics of inflammatory response with time in the modern biological mechanism research has been ignored to some extent. Therefore, the body surface intervention system represented by acupuncture-moxibustion urgently needs to rebuild the research perspective oriented to the complex immune regulation model, and then to explore the opportunity of acupuncture-moxibustion anti-inflammatory intervention according to the dynamic change process of inflammatory response. Through comparative analysis on the ancient and modern acupuncture-moxibustion immune regulation, and starting from the construction of clinical body surface intervention system, we propose that grasping the appropriate "intervention opportunity" is an important entry point that cannot be ignored to effectively "pry" inflammatory response.

[Effect on expression of vascular smooth muscle cell calcium channel in rats exposed in low temperature].

OBJECTIVE: To observe the expression of vascular smooth muscle cells calcium channel α1C subunit (LTCCα1C) in rats exposed in low temperature. METHODS: Cold-induced hypertension was established and blood pressure was measured every two weeks. The mRNA expression of L type calcium channel α1C was determined by RT-PCR. RESULTS: The blood pressure of the rats exposed to cold environment increased. The blood pressure of experimental groups [(102.8 ± 2.25) mm Hg] began to increase from the first two weeks, compared with the control group [(89.2 ± 3.73) mm Hg], there were significant difference (P < 0.05). The blood pressure of experimental groups were (114.5 ± 4.21), (121.9 ± 3.03) mm Hg respectively at 4, 6 weeks. Compared with the control group, the expression of LTCCα1C mRNA of the cold exposure group increased significantly (P < 0.01). There was a significant correlation between the expression of LTCCα1C mRNA and the blood pressure of the rats (r = 0.86, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Repeated cold exposure can establish cold-induced hypertension, and the level of vascular smooth muscle cells LTCCα1C expression increase.

[Cardiovascular circulation feedback control treatment instrument].

The cardiovascular circulation feedback control treatment instrument (CFCTI) is an automatic feedback control treatment system, which has the function of monitoring, alarming, trouble self-diagnosis and testing on the line in the closed loop. The instrument is designed based on the successful clinical experiences and the data are inputted into the computer in real-time through a pressure sensor and A/D card. User interface window is set up for the doctor's choosing different medicine. The orders are outputted to control the dose of medicine through the transfusion system. The response to medicine is updated continually. CFCTI can avoid the man-made errors and the long interval of sampling. Its reliability and accuracy in rescuing the critical patients are much higher than the traditional methods.
