ABSTRACT
Three-parent test tube baby technology is important to solve the mitochondrial genetic disease.Once available,it raises greatly ethical controversy such as breaking traditional family values,hitting the religious belief,existing unknown risks,correctly handling the failed embryo,as well as the influence on the social status of the babies.Regarding these controversy,we can discuss it from several aspects.Because the development of ethics is behind the progress of science and technology,we should affirm the value of three-parent test tube baby technology and balance the development of science and technology with respecting the religious beliefs.Strict supervision system and standard application system reflect our respect for life.Incomprehension to the unknown things should become the motivation of our inquiry.We should face up to our fear of three-parent test tube baby technology,and thus to strengthen research and deepen understanding.Based on the above argument,this paper puts forward the ethical principles that should be followed in the development of three-parent test tube baby technology,namely respect,benefit,no harm and justice.
ABSTRACT
Since CRISPR/Cas9 has been discovered,it opens a new era for gene therapy with its low cast,high efficiency,short cycle,easy operation and other characteristics.In 2015,Huang Junjiu had used the technique to nodify human embryonic cell for the first time,leading to widespread attention at home and abroad.For nearly 50 years,ethical discussion of gene therapy has never stopped.Through reviewing the development of gene therapy,this paper analyzed several key issues of ethical controversy in gene therapy,such as safety,effectiveness,justice,right,interest orientation and so on,and put forward that gene therapy and ethics are not two opposite sides and cannot be treated separately,the development of gene therapy should follow certain ethical norms and technical norms and it should use the bioethical principles to direct gene therapy.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the content determination of muscone in Aiweixin oral liquid. METHODS:After extracting sample by butanol,GC-MS was performed on the column of BD-17 MS with the volume temperature of 270 ℃;the carrier gas was helium with the sample size of 1 μl at the flow rate of 10 ml/min;the split ratio was 20∶1. EI was ion source with the electron energy of 70 eV,ion source temperature of 230 ℃ and quadrupole temperature of 150 ℃;the tuning mode was automatic tuning by quality full scanning with the threshold value of 30 in the range of 30-600 aum. RESULTS:The linear range of muscone was 12.216-61.08 ng(r=0.999 6);RSD of precision test was lower than 2% and the RSDs of reproducibility and stability tests were lower than 3%;the average recovery was 100.24%(RSD=1.58%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The method is sensitive, rapid and simple,and can be used for the content determination of muscone in Aiweixin oral lipid.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of needling Danzhong(CV 17) in the treatment of postpartum hypogalactia and provide clinical evidence for indications of the point. Methods: A multi-centre single-blind randomized controlled trial was carried out. Two hundred and seventy-six puerperal women with postpartum hypogalactia were randomly allocated into acupuncture group and herb group, and respectively treated for three consecutive days. The degree of mammary fullness, the amount of milk secreted, prolactin, baby weight, the frequency and volume of artificial feeding, the number of infant urination events, and the duration of baby crying were observed. The clinical curative effects on postpartum hypogalactia were compared. Results: Hypogalactia was effectively treated in both acupuncture and herb groups. There were statistically significant differences in degree of mammary fullness, amount of milk secreted, baby weight, the frequency and amount of artificial feeding, and the number of infant urination events between pretreatment and post-treatment, but no difference between the two groups. There was no significant difference in prolactin in the acupuncture group and there was a difference in prolactin in the herb group between pretreatment and posttreatment. Conclusion: Needling Danzhong(CV 17) can effectively promote lactation.
