ObjectiveTo determine the optimal combination of the effective monomer components "quercetin-kaempferol-abietic acid-boswellic acid" in Fujin Shengjisan for promoting diabetic ulcer （DU） wound healing through uniform design， thereby achieving the modern application of the ancient formula. MethodsFollowing the principle of "uniform design-pharmacodynamic experiment-mathematical modeling and model verification"， the U₁₄（14⁵） uniform design table was adopted.The four monomer components of Chinese medicine were considered as the independent variables， and the proliferation rate of human umbilical vein endothelial cells （HUVECs） induced by glucose was used as the pharmacodynamic indicator. A mathematical model was constructed using DPS software to correlate the effective monomer components with the pharmacodynamic indicator. The results of uniform design were verified through CCK-8 assay， cell scratch healing， tube formation， Western blot， and Real-time PCR. ResultsAmong the 14 compatibility groups， compared with the high-glucose model group， compound compatibility group 6 showed the strongest proliferation effect and statistical significance （P<0.05）. Four quadratic polynomial regression equations （Y₁-Y₄） were obtained through DPS modeling. Considering the model's fit， stability， and practical application， equations Y₁-Y₃ were selected for the follow-up verification. To ensure experiment reproducibility， group 6 was used for validation. Group 6 and equations Y₁-Y₃ were renamed as compound prescription ① to compound prescription④， respectively， to represent the modern application of the ancient FJSJ Powder through compatibility of monomer components. Verification experiments showed that in the CCK-8， scratch healing， and tube formation assays， the cell viability， wound healing rate， and tube formation number of HUVECs stimulated with 50 mmol·L^-1 glucose were significantly reduced compared with the blank group. Moreover， the expression levels of angiogenesis-related cytokines， vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） and fibroblast growth factor 2 （FGF2）， and CD31 secretion were significantly down-regulated. However， after intervention with compound prescriptions ① to ④， compound prescriptions ① and ③ significantly improved the biological functions of HUVECs induced by 50 mmol·L^-1 glucose. Further analysis of the regression coefficients of compound prescriptions ① and ③， and the relative dose ratios of each monomer component， indicated that abietic acid， quercetin， and boswellic acid promoted angiogenesis of HUVECs in the high glucose environment， with a major effect （positive partial correlation coefficients， all > 0.9）. Abietic acid and boswellic acid， as well as kaempferol and boswellic acid， promoted angiogenesis in HUVECs through interaction （positive partial correlation coefficients）. ConclusionCompound prescriptions ① and ③ are the optimal combinations. They can reverse the inhibitory effects of high glucose， stimulate the proliferation， migration， and tube formation abilities of HUVECs in a high glucose environment， and promote the expression of vascular endothelial growth factorA（VEGFA）， FGF2， and CD31， thereby promoting angiogenesis and facilitating DU wound healing. This finding not only confirms the good reproducibility and feasibility of compound prescriptions ① and ③ but also provides new insights and methods for the rational construction of mathematical models to further study the compatibility theory of Chinese medicine.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of pseudohypoparathyroidism ( PHP ) inpatients in our hospital from January 2008 to December 2017 and to gain a better understanding of this disorder. Methods 18 inpatients diagnosed as sporadic PHP in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively, as regarding the clinical manifestation, laboratory examination and imaging data. Results 18 inpatients were diagnosed sporadic PHP consisting of 12 males and 6 females, with 13 adults and 5 child participants respectively. The medium age of onset was 14 (6-57), and the average age at diagnosis was (24.9± 14.7) years old. Initial onset of symptoms reported were: 12 patients complained of tetany, 3 reported convulsions, 1 reported numbness, 1 reported dysnoesia, and 1 were asymptomatic. Among them: 3 patients were found to have short distal phalanx, 7 displayed a round face, and 3 out of 15 adults were less than 155 cm in height. 12 patients had a positive Trousseau sign, 1 had an ectopic calcification. 11 were found to have intercranial massive calcifications by head computed tomography. Serum calcium was reported at (1.58 ± 0.11) mmol/ L and parathyroid hormone was (359.5 ± 146.6) pg/ ml. 3 patients were discovered to have hypothyroidism, 2 had been misdiagnosed with epilepsy, and 1 with encephalitis. Conclusions Tetany and intracranial calcifications were the most common signs of PHP patients. A number of the PHP cases in this study lacked typical Albright's Hereditary Osteodystrophy ( AHO) appearance. The age of onset and or duration of the disease varied somewhat in the different patient populations. The heterogeneity nature of the clinical manifestations of PHP makes it difficult to diagnose. It is therefore important to make accurate differential diagnosis of PHP to avoid misdiagnosis of the condition.

Cervical spondylosis belongs to the category of "arthralgia syndrome" in traditional Chinese medicine.From the number and distribution range of disease,the incidence of cervical spondylosis is yearly increasing and shows a trend of younger age.Cervical spondylosis has become one of the common diseases that seriously affect people's health.This article reviews the relevant literature of TCM nursing interventions in the rehabilitation of cervical spondylosis and explores the influence of TCM nursing interventions on patients with cervical spondylosis including tuina,cupping,moxibustion,scrapping,TCM fumigation,auricular therapy and so on,in order to provide a reference for the future practice and research of TCM nursing interventions for patients with cervical spondylosis.

OBJECTIVETo detect potential mutation in a pedigree affected with congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI).

METHODSClinical data of a male patient affected with NDI was collected. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples from the patient and five family members. The whole coding region of the arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) gene was amplified by PCR and directly sequenced.

RESULTSThe patient presented polyuria and polydipsia postnatally. Computerized tomography revealed bilateral hydronephrosis and hydroureter. The patient was responsive to hydrochlorothiazide but not to desmopressin. DNA analysis identified a hemizygous missence mutation c.295 T>C in exon 2 of the AVPR2 gene in the proband. His mother and grandmother were both heterozygous for the same mutation.

CONCLUSIONThe congenital NDI in the patient was probably due to mutation of the AVPR2 gene.

Objective:To investigate the influence and mechanism of Portulaca extracts on Tumor Necrosis Factor -α(TNF-α), Interleukin-4(IL-4) in skins of rats with atopic eczema (AE).Methods:40 SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group , model group,Cortex Phellodendri group and Porulaca group.2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene was used on the right back of rat for making atopic eczema.21 days later , all animals were sacrificed , compared the weight of the same size of the eczema and healthy skin.The levels of TNF-αand IL-4 in rats skins were detected by immunohistochemical method.Results:The right back of rats in model group appeared obvious erythema ,erosion and leakage ,which meant the modeling succeeded.Compared with model group ,the swelling degree of Cortex Phellodendri group and Purslane group were significantly decreased ( P<0.01 ) ,compared with Cortex Phellodendri group ,the swelling degree of Purslane group were less than them ( P<0.05 ).The levels of TNF-α, in rats skins of normal control group , model group,Cortex Phellodendri group and Portulaca group were (6 652.66±1 190.94 ),(19 927.10±5 494.21 ), (7 515.13±877.66 ), (6 809.93±1 385.54).The levels of IL-4 were (5 378.44±1 685.01),(26 334.89±3 993.48),(7 814.84±1 751.38),(8 246.57± 975.08 ).Compared with model group ,the levels of TNF-α,IL-4 in rats skins of Cortex Phellodendri group and Purslane group were sig-nificantly decreased(P<0.01).Compared with positive drug group,the levels of TNF-α,IL-4 in rats skins of Purslane group were a little decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion:Purslane extracts has effect to treat atopic eczema ,its possible mechanism is by erducing the proinflammatory factor ,and moderating the anti-inflammatory factor and the ratio between them.
