Objective:To study the curative efficacy of wenxin granule combined with propafenone in the treatment of arrhythmia and its effects on the serum levels ofhs-CRP,TNF-α,IL-6 and heart function.Methods:96 patients of arrhythmia who were treated from July 2014 to October 2016 in our hospital were selected and randomly divided into the observation group (n=48) and the control group (n=48).The control group was treated with propafenone,while the observation group was treated with wenxin granuleon.Then the serum levels of hs-CRP,TNF-α and IL-6,heart function,clinical efficacy and incidence of adverse reactions were observed and compared between the two groups before and after the treatment.Results:After treatment,the total effective rate of observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05).The serum levels of hs-CRP,TNF-α and IL-6 of observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group (P<0.05);the left ventricular end diastolic dimension (LVEDD) and left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVESD) of observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group,and the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was significantly higher than that of control group(P<0.05);the incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion:Wenxin granule combined with propafenone was effective for arrhythmia,it could effectively improve the heart function and high safety,which might be related to the decrease of serum hs-CRP,TNF-and IL-6 levels.

Objective To assess the sensitivity and specificity of vaginitis pathogen detection reagent kit (Nucleic acid hybridization). Methods Four hundreds cases of vaginal secretion samples were detected with Amsel, vaginalis culture, fungal culture and Affirm VPIII detection method, respectively. Using the methods of Amsel, vaginalis culture and fungal culture as the gold standard, the clinical application value of Affirm VPIII detection method was evaluated. Results Compared with Amsel, the sensitivity and specificity of Affirm VPIII detection was 92.2%and 70.5%, respectively. Compared with fungal culture, the sensitivity and specificity was 88.3% and 92.9%, respectively. Compared with vaginalis culture, the sensitivity and specificity was 92.6% and 93.8%, respectively. There was a good consistency between the gold stardard and the Affirm VPIII detection. Conclusion Compared with the traditional detection methods,the Affirm VPIII detection has the advantages of fast detection speed,simple operation, and high sensitivity and specificity. In addition, it can identify three kinds of vaginitis pathogenic microorganisms at the same time,with a certain clinical value.

Objective In this article Response Surface Analysis(RSA)was applied to optimize the formulation of doxycycline hydrochloride sustained release tablet.Methods Single factor exploration was used to determine the three factors which have the greatest impact on the release rate.The three factors were the dosage of the HPMC in the total weight of the tablet,the concentration of PVP-K30,and the ratio of lactose to microcrystalline cellulose,respectively.The composite score of the release behaviour was taken as the response value.The dosage of the ingredients were determined by Box-Benhnke design principles and 3 factors and 3 levels.Results The optimized formulation and process are as follows:the dosage of the HPMC in the total weight of the tablet was 30%;the concentration of PVP-K30 was 10%,and the ratio of lactose to microcrystalline cellulose was 13.The release behavior in vitro is ideal.Conclusion The optimized preparation process of doxycycline hydrochloride sustained release tablet is stable,highly efficient and suitable for industrial production.

Objective To study the validity of Dynamic Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment for Children (DOTCA-Ch) on the cognitive function of children with cerebral palsy. Methods 30 children with cerebral palsy were assessed with DOTCA-Ch and Chinese Binet Test of Intelligence by trained rehabilitation medicine graduates within 1 week. The correlation between these tests were analyzed. Results The total DOTCA-Ch scores, spatial orientation and thought operation function were strongly correlated with IQ, while spatial perception,praxis and optomotor tissue were slightly correlated with IQ. Conclusion DOTCA-Ch can comprehensively assess the cognitive function of children with cerebral palsy.

Objective To observe the application of elastic bandage in cerebral palsy with knee hyperextension. Methods 20 spastic diplegia children were radomly divided into control group and experimental group with 10 cases in each group. Both of them received conventional rehabilitation, including exercise therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. The experimental group worn elastic bandages additionally when orthostatic walk preparing and walking training. The knee range of motion (ROM), D and E zones of Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) were evaluated before and 3 months after treatment. Results The ROM decreased, and the score of GMFM increased after treatment in both groups (P<0.01), especially in the experimental group (P<0.01). Conclusion The elastic bandage can improve the knee function and the gross motor function of cerebral palsy children with knee hyperextension.
