ABSTRACT
Objective To develop a rotatable scalp acupuncture to enhance success rate of arteriovenous puncture during hospital treatment, field firstaid and evacuation.Methods The acupuncture was composed of a pinhead, a neilsbed, wings and a soft tube. The wings connected with each other to form a hole to hold the intermediate section of the neilsbed rotating in it. There was an index point in the middle of the head of the neilsbed, whose direction corresponded linearly with that of the inclined plane of the pinhead in the vessel.Results Clinical trials proved that the acupuncture could eliminate the failure of puncture due to tremble hands, incoordination of the patient and etc.Conclusion The acupuncture structured well is easy to operate for all conditions, and thus is worth popularizing practically.
ABSTRACT
In this study, the natural biological inducer, rat regenerating pancreatic extract (RPE), was used to induce human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) into insulin-secreting cells. We excised 60% of rat pancreas in order to stimulate pancreatic regeneration. RPE was extracted and used to induce hAMSCs at a final concentration of 20 microg/mL. The experiment methods used were as follows: morphological-identification, dithizone staining, immumofluorescence analysis, reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) and insulin secretion stimulated by high glucose. The results show that the cell morphology of passge3 hAMSCs changed significantly after the induction of RPE, resulting in cluster shape after induction for 15 days. Dithizone staining showed that there were scarlet cell masses in RPE-treated culture. Immumofluorescence analysis indicated that induced cells were insulin-positive expression. RT-PCR showed the positive expression of human islet-related genes Pdx1 and insulin in the induced cells. The result of insulin secretion stimulated by high glucose indicated that insulin increasingly secreted and then kept stable with prolongation of high glucose stimulation. In conclusion, hAMSCs had the potential to differentiate into insulin-secreting cells induced by RPE in vitro.

The battlefield rescuing unit of the current model is always restricted by some factors such as regional environments in wartime rescuing action and peacetime disaster relief, which can lead to failure of following and deploying action, so that wounded persons can not be rescued at the first time. Aiming at the special circumstances, a forward first-aid unit composed of five doctors and nurses should be established to give emergency medical rescue with rescuing emergent equipments and medicine packed in portable packages such as portable respiring machine, defibrillator and oxygen device at the battlefront. In this way, success rate of rescuing wounded persons would be increased obviously, while mortality rate and deformity rate would be decreased greatly.
