[Effect of electroacupuncture at Baihui ameliorated neurologic deficit and hemodynamic stability in rat model of post-cardiac arrest syndrome].

Objective: To observe the results of electroacupuncture (EA) on the resuscitation of a rat model of asphyxia cardiac arrest (CA). And to explore its effect on the neurologic deficits and hemodynamic instability of post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS).

Methods: A total of 107 male SD rats were randomly divided into sham, CA, and EA groups.

Flexible stretchable low-energy X-ray (30-80 keV) radiation shielding material: Low-melting-point GaInSnBi alloy/thermoplastic polyurethane composite.

A highly flexible stretchable thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) composite loaded with a low-melting-point GaInSnBi multiprincipal element alloy (LMPEA) was prepared, and its radiation shielding performance was evaluated. The fluid characteristic of LMPEA and the flexibility of TPU enable good interface compatibility. GaInSnBi LMPEA consists of two eutectic structures, and the liquid gallium-rich phases are distributed at the boundary of the InBi intermetallic compound and Sn solid solution.

Shenfu injection alleviates the clinical symptoms of heart failure patients combined with conventional treatment: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials.

Background: Shenfu Injection (SFI) is a promising alternative treatment for heart failure (HF) in China. Many complete clinical trials have examined the efficacy of SFI combined use with conventional treatment (CT) vs CT alone. This study is to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials to evaluate the benefits and risks of using SFI in addition to CT for the treatment of HF.

The effect of acupuncture on the expression of inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-6,IL-1 and CRP in cerebral infarction: A protocol of systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: The mechanisms of acupuncture on the treatment of cerebral infarction remain unclear, the aim of the present study was to provides a protocol of systematic review and meta-analysis, with which we will collect clinical evidence to verify whether acupuncture will have an effect on reducing the levels of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-1 (IL-1), and interleukin (IL-6) after cerebral infarction based on evidence-based studies.

Methods: Included studies will be retrieved according to inclusion and exclusion criteria from 5 English databases (the MEDLINE via PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, the Web of Science, and Ovid database), and 4 Chinese databases (China Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), Wan-fang Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI)) from October 1990 to October 2017. The inflammatory factor levels of TNF-α and IL-1,IL-6,CRP will be marked as major outcomes.

[Electrochemical deposition of silver by using ionic liquids as additive and its surface-enhanced Raman scattering effect].

In the present work, the electrochemical deposition of silver was investigated on a glassy carbon electrode from AgNO3 solutions in the presence of RTILs (1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium nitrate, [bmim]NO3) additive by cyclic voltammetric technique, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray photon spectroscopy (XPS). For comparison, the electrodeposition of silver from [bmim]NO3-free AgNO3 solution was also investigated. The voltammograms showed that the cathodic peak potential shifted toward more negative potential and the cathodic peak current decreased when 5 x 10(-6) mol x L(-1) [bmim]NO3 was added into AgNO3 solutions.

[Raman investigating of trace contraband heroin by micro Raman].

Under incident light 514.5 nm, Raman scattering spectrum of trace contraband Heroin on finger with low concentration was investigated. It has been known that contraband Heroin has strong fluorescence background in its Raman scattering under visible excitation.
