RESUMO
This paper aimed at exploring methods and their effectiveness of cultivating the scientific research quality in medical undergraduates in the early stage of. In combination with teachers' scientific research projects, 3 to 5 medical undergraduates in 3rd grade who applied for the projects initiatively were selected every year to enter into different research groups in the department. According to students' wishes, they may participate in some experiments in scientific research projects , or complete small projects independently, or write a review on a certain topic under teachers' guidance. In the past 10 years, 25 students participated in the program of our section and published 19 papers in total. Most students who participated in the experimental research program were able to carry out some scientific experiments independently with improved scientific research ability and practical ability. Students who wrote reviews not only broadened their knowledge, but also developed the skills of literature search, reading, comprehensive writing and critical thinking. Therefore, it was concluded that the cultivation of scientific research quality in students in the early stage could motivate students to actively participate in scientific research; both scientific experiments and themed reviews could enhance the scientific research ability and scientific research quality of undergraduates from different angles.

RESUMO
Objective To study the modulation of central amygdale (CeA)on cardiac nociception with electrical stimulation in rats.Methods The heart pain model of adult male Sprague-Dawley rats was established with intrapericardial injection of capsaicin; then the evoked electromyography (EMG ) responses in the spinotrapezius (SPT)were observed as an index.Immunohistochemical method was used to observe the expression of c-fos in CeA;The rats were divided into normal control group,intrapericardial saline injection control group,and intrapericardial capsaicin injection group. The changes of EMG responses after electrical stimulation on CeA (intensity of 30μA and 70μA)were observed separately by electrophysiology in different groups.Results① Compared with normal control group, intrapericardial capsaicin injection group had significantly increased expression of c-fos in CeA.However,c-fos expression did not differ significantly between intrapericardial saline injection group and normal control group;② After 30μA electrical stimulation on CeA,EMG response in SPT significantly decreased in intrapericardial capsaicin injection group compared with that in control group;the total discharge rate was (78.58±4.62)% of that of control group (P<0.05).After 70μA electrical stimulation on CeA, the total discharge rate was (54.89±3.98)% of that of control group (P<0.05).Conclusion CeA may be involved in cardiac nociceptive transmission in rats and has inhibitory effects on the modulation of rat cardiac nociception.
RESUMO
Chinese medical student's education system is quite different from that in western countries.Besides,Chinese residency training program is just starting.The professional training of pathologists,who make the final diagnosis in the hospital,is not satisfied.The present situation in China is that overall quality of pathologists is low and varied.The pathology department of Xijing Hospital started to carry out the pathology residency training program since 2009.It is expected to search for a model of pathology residency training program with Chinese characteristics.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effects of infrasound at different frequencies on the pathological morphology of mouse testes and to explore the possible involvement of β-cateinin in the mechanism of injury. MethodsSixty adult BALB/C mice were randomly divided into 2 groups.One group of 6 mice were the controls without infrasound exposure.The other group with 54 mice was evenly divided into 3 subgroups of 18 exposed to 130 dB infrasound at 4 Hz,8 Hz or 20 Hz for 2 hours daily.The pathological morphology of the mice's testes was observed 3,9 and 21 h after exposure.Immunohistochemical staining was used to examine β-catenin expression 3 h after exposure.ResultsMarked damage was observed in the morphology of the testicular cells of rats in the 8 Hz group.Cell denaturation was found in germinal cells.The cell structure was loosened and the cell junctions had decreased or disappeared.The damage was most serious at 3 h after exposure.But at the same time point,pathological damage of testicular cells was not obvious in the 4 Hz group,with only a few testes cells swollen.The morphology of testicular tissue of mice in the 20 Hz subgroup exhibited no significant difference from the control group.β-catenin was mainly found in the membranes of Leydig cells,Sertoli cells and myoepithelial cells in all of the mice,and there was no significant change in the expression level or distribution pattern between the exposed mice and the controls.No expression ofβ-catenin was found in spermatogenic cells. ConclusionInfrasound at 4 Hz or 8 Hz can damage testicular tissue,at least in mice.At 20 Hz there is no significant effect on the testes.The loosened cell structure might have been caused by the mechanical force produced by the infrasound and not by any decrease of β-catenin.
RESUMO
Pancreastatin, a novel peptide isolated from porcine pancreas, is capable of inhibiting the insulin release and the exocrine secretion of the pancreas. In this study, the localization and distribution of pancreastatin in guinea pig, pig and human pancreas were investigated with ABC immunostaining method combined with the glucose oxidase-DAB-nickle developing technique on paraffin sections. The results showed that in human pancreas pancreastatin-like immunoreactive(PLI)cells were mainly dist- ributed in the periphery of the islets. While in guinea pig and pig pancreas, the majority of islets cells showed positive pancreastatin immunostaining. The coexistence of pancreastatin and insulin in the pancreatic islets of guinea pig and pig were also proved with immunostaining of adjacent thin sections. PLI-cells were also found in the epithelium of the ducts and acini of all investigated pancreas. However, in the exocrine portion of human and pig pancreas, PLI-cells were present in amounts smaller than those found in guinea pig pancreas. The significance of the distribution pattern of pancreastatin was discussed.
