1、Pharmacology is truly multidisciplinary in scope.Research in this field is closely interwoven with the subject matter and experimental techniques of analytical chemistry,biochemistry,cellular and molecular biology,genetics,immunology,medicinal chemistry,microbiology,pathology,and physiology. 药理学是真正的多范围的学科。在这个领域中的研究紧密地交织在一起的主题和实验技术的分析化学、生物化学、细胞和分子生物学、遗传学、免疫学、药物化学、微生物学、病理、生理原因。

2、The biochemical pharmacologist uses drugs as probes to discover new information about biosynthetic pathways and their kinetics,and investigates how drugs can correct the biochemical abnormalities that are responsible for human illness. 生化药理学家使用探针去发现新的药物信息及其动力学生物合成途径,并考察药物能正确的生化异常负责人类疾病。

3、Research in immunopharmacology includes work on immunosuppressant agents used in organ transplant operations,as well as the development of agents to enhance the immune response as required for the treatment of diseases such as AIDS. 免疫药理学的研究工作包括免疫抑制剂在器官移植手术代理以前以及发展代理来提高免疫反应要求治疗疾病,如艾滋病。

4、Clinical pharmacologists study how drugs works,how they interact with other drugs,how their effects can alter the disease process,and how disease can alter their effects. 药物临床药理学家去研究如何工作,如何与其他药物相互作用,可以改变疾病的影响过程,疾病能改变他们的影响。

5、Researchers observe the effects of drugs on arterial pressure,blood flow in specific vascular beds,release of physiological mediators,and on neural activity arising from central nervous system structures. 研究人员观察药物对动脉压的影响、血流在特定血管床,释放的生理介质,在神经活动引起的中枢神经系统的结构。

1、Microbiololgy involves the study of those organisms too small to be seen by the unaided eye.These organisms include bacteria,fungi,viruses,protozoa and alga.As a group these organisms are referred to as microbes,microorganisms or,if they cause disease,pathogens,germs or “bugs”.It

should be noted that for the most part microbes do not cause disease.

2、Even before the medical community had embraced the germ theory,two physicians had observed that the use of sloppy methods and contaminated instruments during surgery led to increased mortality of the surgical patient.

3、Smallpox was a disease that ravaged Europe for centuries.Those that contracted the disease often died and those that survived were often left with scars.The control of this scourge was the first complete success that has been achieved by western medicine.

4、Over the last two hundred years,the use of vaccination against smallpox has led to the eradication of naturally occurring cases of this disease.

5、This work led to his proposing Koch’s postulates.These po stulates state that to consider a specific bacterium as the cause of a specific disease the bacterium must be isolated,introduced into

a healthy host and cause the same disease as seen in the originally infected organism.

1、Over the years,repeated spine fractures can cause chronic lower back pain as well as loss of height or curving of the spine,which gives the individual a hunched-back appearance of the upper back,often called a “dowager hump.”

2、If you smoke,drink more than two units of alcohol a day,are underweight,don’t exercise or eat well,you could be setting yourself up for osteoporosis later in life.

3、People with a more sedentary lifestyle are more likely to have a hip fracture than those who are more active.Women who sit for more than nine hours a day are 50% more likely to have a hip fracture than those who sit for less than six hours a day.

4、Both genders are almost twice (1.86 times) as likely to have a second fracture compared to people who are fracture free.

5、Ninety percent of hip fractures result from falls.Visual impairments,loss of balance,neuromuscular dysfunction,dementia,immobilization,and use of sleeping pills which are quite common conditions in elderly persons,significantly increase the risk of falling and the risk of fracture.

1、Parkinson’s results from the degeneration of dopamine-producing nerve cells in the brain,specifically in the substantia nigra and the locus coeruleus.

2、Many researchers believe that several factors combined are involved:free radicals,accelerated aging,environmental toxins,and genetic predisposition.

3、There are three surgical procedures for treating Parkinson’s diease:ablative surgery,stimulation surgery or deep brain stimulation (DBS),and transplantation or restorative surgery.

4、The body’s ability to produce smooth,controlled,muscular activity is a product of many complex,interrelated functions.

5、Surgery is another method of controlling symptoms and improving quality of life when medication ceases to be effective or when medication side effects,such as jerking and dyskinesia,become intolerable.

1、The levels of HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol in the blood are measured to evaluate the risk of atherosclerosis.That helps determine the risk of heart attack or stroke.

2、Because of the damage to the endothelium,fats,cholesterol,platelets,cellular debris,calcium and other substances are deposited in the artery wall.

3、Research has shown that when the amount of cholesterol within cells builds up,the number of these receptors on cell surfaces is reduced and blood levels of LDL increase.This can lead to more cholesterol being available for deposit in artery walls.

4、As VLDL and chylomicron particles release their triglycerides into the body’s cells,fragments containing proteins,fats and cholesterol break away.

5、Research also suggests that inflammation in the circulating blood may play an important role in triggering heart attacks and strokes.

1、The ICU team typically includes a pharmacist who helps you review medication profiles and determine if your patient is predisposed to side effects or drug interactions.The pharmacist will help you calculate clearance rates from measured drug levels and plan dosing schedules for many of the medications used in the ICU.

2、Patients with respiratory distress,manifested either as an inability to oxygenate or an inability to ventilate,are transferred to the ICU for supplemental oxygen and mechanical ventilation.

3、Patients with life-threatening gastrointestinal bleeding are admitted to treat hypotension with IV fluids,blood and blood products.Diagnostic tests such as endoscopy will likely be performed to locate and treat the source of bleeding in unstable patients in the ICU.

4、The respiratory rate and the pulse oximeter reading,which indicates the patient’s oxygen saturation,are also displayed on the monitor.The pulse oximeter is a noninvasive monitor attached to the patient’s finger or earlobe to measure oxygen saturation continuously.

5、Intravenous medication pumps allow the nursing staff to titrate medications;Foley catheters and urine collection bags aid in monitoring urine output;sequential compression devices squeeze the lower extremities and reduce the incidence of deep venous thrombosis;transvenous pacemakers stimulate the patient’s heart to beat;dialysis machines remove fluid and correct electrolyte and acid-base disturbances;intraaortic balloon pumps assist the heart’s contractility;and neurologic monitoring systems measure intracranial pressure.

1、In 1997,exposure to live poultry within a week before the onset of illness was associated with disease in humans,whereas there was no significant risk related to eating or preparing poultry products or exposure to persons whith influenza A(H5N1) disease.

2、Given the survival of influenza A(H5N1) in the environment, several other modes of transmission are theoretically possible.

3、In contrast to 1997, when most deaths occurred among patients older than 13 years of age, recent avian influenza A(H5N1) infections have caused high rates of death among infants and young children.

4、Most hospitalized patients with avian influenza A(H5N1) have required ventilatory support within 48 hours after admission, as well as intensive care for multiorgan failure and sometimes hypotension.

5、In addition to empirical treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics, antiviral agents, alone or with corticosteroids, have been used in most patients, although their effects have not been rigorously assessed.

1、New methods to achieve tight glucose control are needed that are practical and can be administered to all persons wit type 1 diabetes, including methods of insulin delivery, better forms of insulin, and practical, affordable methods of noninvasive self monitoring that can be coupled to patient-specific insulin treatment regimens.

2、Efforts to understand genetic variation, gene expression profiling, and the interaction between genetic factors and environmental triggers must be intensified.

3、This research coupled with the efforts to identify the diabetes genes, will provide a mechanistic understanding of the specific defects in these pathways in type 2 diabetes, which should lead to

the development of more specific, and more effective, pharmaceutical agents directed against defined molecular targets.

4、For patients with type 1 diabetes, the procedures of cadaveric islet cell transplants will be largely perfected so that this can be performed either without the need for immunosuppression or whith the of specific highly focused immunosuppressive agents that will produce minimal adverse effects.

5 Once the predisposing diabetes genes are identified, it will be a straightforward matter to genotype individuals for diabetes susceptibility.
