Objective To investigate the effects of Yiqi Congming pill combined with western medicine on hearing and sleep quality in tinnitus patients. Methods 60 tinnitus patients caused by liver fire treated in our hospital from May 2015 to February 2017 were selected for the study and randomly divided into the observation group and the control group, with 30 cases in each group. The two groups were given conventional western medicine and Yiqi Congming pills combined with western medicine respectively. The effective rates of treatment, the speech pure-tone average (PTA), speech recognition threshold (SRT) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were compared between the two groups, and the adverse reactions were observed. Results The effective rate of the observation group was 93.33％, which was higher than that of the control group with 73.33％ (P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of PTA, SRT the scores of PSQI were significantly lower in the observation group than those in the control group (P<0.05). There were no differences in the incidence rates of adverse reactions between the two groups. Conclusions Yiqi Congming pill combined with western medicine can effectively treat tinnitus caused by liver fire, and improve hearing and sleep quality without obvious adverse reactions. Therefore it is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Objective:To investigate the protective effect of adenosine on cochlea in acute acoustic trauma. Methods: Guinea pigs were exposed to 118 dB SPL white noise for 30 min. During the process of exposure, artificial perilymph or artificial perilymph containing adenosine (0.1 mmol/L,1 mmol/L or 5 mmol/L) was infused into the cochlea through perilymphatic perfusion. Concentration of glutamate in perilymph and thresholds of compound action potentials (CAP) were measured before and after noise exposure. Results: After exposure, the concentration of glutamate and the mean threshold shifts evoked by click were significantly higher than those of before exposure. Concentration of glutamate and thresholds of CAP in adenosine (1 mmol/L and 5 mmol/L) treated groups were significantly lower than those of the control group. Conclusion: Adenosine can inhibit the elevation of glutamate and decrease the threshold shift of CAP after exposure to noise,which can protect cochlea in acute acoustic trauma in guinea pigs.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of double-balloon enteroscopy in small bowel Crohn’s disease. Methods In sixty five patients with suspected small bowel Crohn's disease double-balloon enteroscopy were performed, and some of them received enteroscopy and enteroclysis, capsule endoscopy as well.Results The first enteroscopy was performed via mouth in 20 of 65 cases, and the lesions were detected in 11 cases (55%), 5 of 9 cases(55.6%) had lesions detected in enteroscopy via anus while nothing was found in mouth route. Among 45 cases examed by enteroscopy firstly via anus, 34 cases had lesions detected (75.6%), 8 of 11 cases(72.7%) had lesions found in following exam via mouth. Totally 58of 65 had lesions detected through enterosocpy examination, the overall diagnostic yield was 89.2%. Twenty four of 46 cases had positive findings with enteroclysis. The diagnosis of Crohn's disease was comfirmed in 14 of 22 patients(63.6%) underwent capsule endoscoy. The diagnosis was finally confirmed by enteroscopy only in 11 patients(78.6%).Conclusion The entire small intestine could be examined by enteroscopy with combination of mouth and anus route. Double-balloon enteroscopy was an ideal diagnostic modality for small bowel Crohn's diseases, which was also valuable in assessment on extent and severity of the disease. Small bowel enteroclysis was a useful screening alternative for selecting procedure route in DBE.

Objective To determine the value of ERCP and EST after Billroth gastroenterostomy. Methods ERCP was used in 31 patients after Billroth- Ⅰ gastroenterostomy, 12 of whom received EST. It was in 137 patients after Billroth-Ⅱ gastroenterostomy, of the 34 received EST and 4 EPBD.Results Billroth- Ⅰ gastroenterostomy ERCP was successfully performed in 28 out of the 31 patients and EST in 11 out of the 12 patients. Billroth- Ⅱ gastroenterostomy ERCP was successfully performed in 109 out of the 137 patients and EST in 31 out of the 38 patients. There were no serious complications in patients receiving endoscopic treatments. Concluasion The success rates of ERCP and EST are high in patients with bile duct lithiasis after Billroth-gastroenterostomy. Endoscopic treatment or cholangioduodenostomy has good therapeutic effects.

Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics,diagnosis and treatment of chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis(CMC).Methods The case diagnosed as CMC in the Department of Nephrology and Immunology of Shenzhen Children's Hospital in February 24,2014 was analyzed in terms of symptoms,signs,laboratory findings,gene tests and treatment process,and related literature was reviewed.Results The patient was a 14-year-old boy.The patient started to develop recurrent oral candida infection shortly after birth,then candida infection of skins and nails,which could be alleviated by antifungal agents,but easily relapsed.Since 4 years ago,autoimmune reactions such as autoimmune anemia,thrombocytopenia,leucopenia,proteinuria,and hypothyroidism had successively appeared,and cytopenia began to palliate after administering Glucocorticoid and Cyclosporin,but easily relapsed when the dosage was reduced.The genetic test showed the case was of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) gain-of-function mutation.During the hospitalization,hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) and stagnation of hematopoietic function successively occurred.The cytopenia did not improve and the patient suffered severe infection in spite of washing red blood cells 13 times and blood palate 3 times via infusion,together with high dosage of Dexamethasone and Cyclosporine.The peripheral blood cells and bone marrow gradually returned to normal after being treated by human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor combined with Dexamethasone and Cyclosporin.Retrieving the database in PubMed database,824 articles were found which were about CMC,and 39 of them were about the STAT1 gain-of-function mutation,including 120 cases.But there was only 1 domestic case in 2012,who was a three-year-old child,manifesting recurrent fungal infection of the skin.Conclusions STAT1 gain-of-function acquired mutation is one of the reasons that can lead to CMC.Autoimmune reactions prominently represented by cytopenia occur in a few patients with CMC.It should be alert on those who are with CMC and simultaneously with autoimmtne reaction of blood system.And gene tests facilitate the early diagnosis.

Aim To investigate the induction effect of ginsenoside Rc, Re, Rf and Rg1 on CYP1A1, and further validate the role of aryl hydrocarbon receptor in CYP1A1 expression. Methods Dual luciferase re-porter gene system was performed. Four kinds of gin-senoside were screened for aryl hydrocarbon receptor activation by reporter assays, and TCDD as the positive control. Further with different concentrations of ginsen-oside Rc, Re, Rf and Rg1 treated on LS174T cells, RNA and total protein were extracted to detect the reg-ulating effect of ginsenosides on CYP1 A1 mRNA and protein expression with Real-time PCR and Western blot technology respectively. Results Reporter gene screening showed that the ginsenoside Rc, Re, Rf and Rg1 could activate AhR and had potential effects on the induction of CYP1A1 enzyme. Meanwhile, dose-de-pendent induction of the gene expression were observed in response to ginsenoside Rc, Re, Rf and Rg1 and the levels of CYP1 A1 protein expression were increased by ginsenoside Rc, Re, Rf and Rg1 in varying de-grees. Conclusion Ginsenoside Rc, Re, Rf and Rg1 can up-regulate the gene and protein expression of CYP1 A1 possibly via the AhR-mediated CYP1 A1 path-way.

Objective To investigate the angiogenesis effects of Salvia miltiorrhiza in heterotopically grafted frozen-thawed mouse ovaries. Methods The ovaries thawed after cryopreservation were xenografted into the donated kidney capsules of 8- to 12-week adult male mice. The mice were divided into two groups, saline and Salvia miltiorrhiza groups, the mice either in the saline or in Salvia miltiorrhiza groups were administered I.p. Daily either saline(0.5ml) or Salvia miltiorrhiza(0.5g)respectively, from the day prior transplantation. The two groups were sacrificed 1 day,2 days and 7 days after transplantation respectively, the grafts from thawed,1 day,2 days,7 days were removed for follicle counting, immunohistochemical studying and detecting of the mRNA expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF). Results The number of follicles and survival rates in grafts after transplantation of Salvia miltiorrhiza group were more than that of saline group (P<0.05);the expression of VEGF increased after transplantation,peaked on day 7,there was no difference between the two groups (P>0.05);the apoptosis index of Salvia miltiorrhiza group was less than that of saline group (P<0.05), the mRNA expression of VEGF188 and VEGF164 of Salvia miltiorrhiza group was more than that of saline group on 48 hours after transplantation(P<0.05). Conclusion Salvia miltiorrhiza may provide benefits for folliculogensis and decreasing the apoptosis index of follicles. Nevertheless,a increase in the VEGF188 and VEGF164 isoform in the Salvia miltiorrhiza group may suggest the positive effect of exogenous Salvia miltiorrhiza therapy in the early stage of angiogenesis.

Objective E0703 is derived from estradiol and has anti-radiation effects on irradiated mice, the effects of E0703 on cell viability,cell cycle and the related mechanism in irradiated AHH-1 cells were investigated in this study.Methods Cell viability,cell apoptosis and cell cycle were determined by Cell Counting Kit-8.Annexin V-FITC double staining kit and Flow Cytometry,respectively.Level of mRNA and protein were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot,respectively.Results 3.0 Gy 60 Co γ-rays induced significant cell cycle arrest,necrosis,apoptosis and reduction of viability.Pretreatment with E0703 for 12 h before irradiation could increase cell viability and regulate cell cycle.but had no obvious effect on cell necrosis and apoptosis.The expression of cell cycle arrest related molecules Rb and MDM2 were increased after 3.0 Gy irradiation,but decreased significantly with pretreatment of E0703.Moreover.the phosphorylation of Rb was also increased.Conclusions The radioprotective function of E0703 might be exerted through influencing on cell cycle and promoting cell proliferation instead of apoptosis or necrosis.
