[Effects of harvest on greenhouse gas emissions from forested swamp during non-growing season in Xiaoxing'an Mountains of China.].

Soil greenhouse gas emission during non-growing season plays an important role in ecosystem carbon and nitrogen cycling in mid and high latitude regions. However, the effects of harvest on greenhouse gas emission during non-growing remain unclear. We measured the fluxes of CO, CH and NO and environmental factors (soil temperature, moisture, soil organic carbon and total nitrogen etc.

[Relationship between the gene polymorphism in fibroblast growth factor-10 and susceptibility to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease 220 cases].

Objective: Fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF 10) signaling pathway is crucial to lung development and epithelial reconstruction. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between gene polymorphisms in FGF 10 and susceptibility to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in a Han population of North China.

Methods: The subjects included 220 patients with COPD (COPD group) and 285 healthy controls (control group).

[The clinical characteristics and treatment of community outbreaks of the new influenza A (H1N1) infection].

Objective: To describe the clinical characteristics of 3 community outbreaks of the novel influenza A (H1N1), and to compare the treatment effects of the traditional Chinese medicine with or without Oseltamivir.

Method: The clinical records of 234 patients in 3 community outbreaks of the novel influenza A (H1N1) infection in June (n = 56), August (n = 96) and October (n = 82) of 2009 were analyzed, and the treatment effects of the traditional Chinese medicine with or without Oseltamivir were evaluated.

Results: The baseline characteristics, including age, temperature, indices of blood tests, hepatic and renal functions were distributed evenly between the 2 treatment groups.
