Objective] To sum up Pro. Cheng Zhiqing’s clinical experience in treating hypertension with insomnia in menopause. [Method] Select 3 classical cases of the disease above treated by Pro. Cheng Zhiqing for analysis and discussion, and summarize her differentiation thought and treatment features. [Result] In her view, such disease is mostly concerned with liver, as well as related to heart, kidney, etc., the pathological course concerns mother-organ disorder involving its child-organ, so the therapy shall center on stretching liver, clearing liver, smoothing liver and tonifying liver, also purging child-organ in excess, nourishing mother-organ in deficiency, treating multi-organ in the same time, therefore to get better clinical effect. [Conclusion] For the hypertension with insomnia in menopause, Pro. Cheng Zhiqing is good at grasping disease mechanism, revising famous and recipe decoctions in generations, with close compatibility of medicines, definite cure effect, worth reference.

Effects of vitamin A on antimetastatic activity of alveolar M 0 were studied. The results were as follows:1 . SD rats recieved vitamin A were killed and their alveolar M0 were harvested by lavage and cocultured with prelabelled B16 Melanoma cells for 48h in proportion of 20 : 1 , the average precentage of cytotoxity were 34.28%;2 . Zymosan-C3b rosette formation in SD rats treated with vitamin A was significantly increased. The average rosette forming rate was 43.00%. It was markdly higher than those of controls ( P

Medical English listening is an important part of English education in medical institutes. On the basis of schema theory,this paper tries to explore the application of the theory in the teaching practice of medical listening and focuses on how to improve the teaching quality of medical English listening from the perspectives of phonetic schema,vocabulary schema and background schema.

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship of clinical manifestations with prognosis of patients with diffuse axonal injury (DAI) and select the indices that can accurately evaluate the prognosis so as to create a predictive model of outcome of DAI patients.MethodsClinical data of 98 DAI patients were retrospectively analyzed to identify the relationship between the indices and outcomes through Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel x2 test or Student-Newman-Keuls one way variance test via SAS 8.1.Then,the indices was analyzed through multivariant cumulative stepwise way so as to establish the Logistic regression model. Results (1)The indices including Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) on admission,combined with other type of cerebral injuries,unstable vital signs,abnormal pupil size and reactivity,decerebrate rigidity,imaging with characteristic DAI signs,paralysis of the limbs and length of coma were correlated with the outcome,while the indices including gender,age,injury mechanism,pathologic signs and decorticate rigidity were insignificantly associated with the outcome.(2) The logistic regression model showed that GCS on admission,paralysis degree of the limbs,abnormal pupil size and reactivity,and combined with cerebral injuries were the optimum predictors of outcome of the DAI patients.ConclusionsThe logistic regression model in the study is a reliable tool in predicting the prognosis of DAI patients.The patients wit higher GCS on admission may have better outcome.The patients with light degree of paralysis,normal pupil size and reaction,and combined with none cerebral injuries may have sound prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the interference of 13 kinds of β‐lactam antibiotics in fructosamine detection .Methods A se‐ries of solution of antimicrobial drugs were formulated with water for injection ,and added into the mixture fresh serum volume by 5% .Interfere with antimicrobial drugs on the test results of fructosamine were evaluated .Results When the blood concentrations of cefathiamidine and ticarcillin sodium/clavulanate potassium were up to 37 .5 mg/L and 247 .5 μg/mL respectively ,they began to produce positive interference on fructosamine detection .However ,the degree of interference was not correlated to the serum concen‐tration of fructosamine .Conclusion Cephathiamidine and ticarcillin sodium/clavulanate potassium have positive interference on fructosamine detection .

Objective To evaluate the effects of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) on sleep apneas in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats.Methods Thirty adult male SD rats were randomly divided into two groups (15 rats in each group).The treatment group and the control group were injected intraperitoneally with paroxetine (10 mg · kg-1·d-1) and sterile distilled water (2 mL · kg-1 · d-1) for 7 days respectively.Parameters about sleep apnea and sleep structure were measured before and after the treatment.Results In the treatment group, there was a significant reduction of apnea index (AI) from (12.4±3.7) times/hour to (7.4±2.2) tmes/hour (P = 0.000).Both post sigh apnea index (PSAI) and spontaneous apnea index (SPAI) were decreased significantly (P = 0.000 and 0.021 respectively) in non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, but not in REM sleep.REM sleep was reduced from 8.6% to 8.0% (P = 0.013) and its latency was increased from (54.1±48.4) rain to (110.9±43.4) min (P = 0.001) in the treatment group,as well as the sleep-onset latency [from (20.7±9.1) rain to (30.0±15.7) rain, P = 0.038].Conclusion Paroxetine can reduce sleep apneas in SD rats during NREM sleep.Its effects on sleep structure include reducing REM time,increasing REM latency and sleep-onset latency.

Objective To study the directly injury effects of lipopolysaccharide(LPS) on human vascular endothelial cells(HVEC).Methods Lipopolysaccharide with different concentrations added into cultured vascular endothelial cells of human umbilical vein,at different phase after lipopolysaccharide being added,the concentrations of nitric oxide(NO),lactic acid dehydrogenase(LDH) were measured,and the adhesion of HVEC to polymorphonuclear leucocytes(PMN) were observed,the morphological changes of HVEC were detected by phase-contrast microscope.Results The NO content,LDH activity were obviously elevated with increase of LPS concentration(P

Objective To investigate the effect of suspended moxa stick moxibustion on points Shenshu(BL23) and Guanyuan(CV4) on the pituitary-adrenal axis and the pituitary-thyroid axis in rats with kidney yang deficiency. Method A rat model of corticosterone kidney yang deficiency was made by intramuscular injection of hydrocortisone. The rats were randomized into model control and moxibustion treatment groups. A blank control group was set up. The moxibustion treatment group received suspended moxa stick moxibustion on points Shenshu and Guanyuan 20 min once daily, for a total of 14 times. After the completion of treatment, serum CORT, ACTH, T3, T4 and TSH contents were measured by ELISA and pituitary expressions of ACTH and TSH mRNA were determined by RT-PCR. Result There was no significant difference in serum CORT (P>0.05), there were significant differences in serum ACTH, T4 and TSH and pituitary ACTH and TSH mRNA (P<0.05) and there was a very significant difference in serum T3 (P<0.01) between the moxibustion treatment and model control groups. There were no significant differences in the above indicators between the moxibustion treatment and blank control groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Suspended moxa stick moxibustion on points Shenshu and Guanyuan produces a therapeutic effect on rat kidney yang deficiency by decreasing serum TSH content, down-regulating pituitary TSH mRNA expression, increasing serum ACTH, T3 and T4 contents and up-regulating pituitary ACTH mRNA expression.
