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 evaluate the safety and feasibility of three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy combined with tegafur in treating locally recurrent rectal cancer. Methods A total of 32 patients with locally recurrent rectal cancer were treated with chemoradiotherapy ( CRT) . Radiotherapy was delivered to a total of 45 Gy in 25 fractions followed by a boost of 18 Gy in 10 fractions using three dimensional radiotherapy planning. Tegafur was given orally[80 mg·(m2)-1·d-1] on days 1-5, 8-12, 15-19, 22-26, 29-33, 36-40, and 43-47 during radiotherapy. Results Most of the adverse effects were mild. Grade 3-4 toxic effects occurred in 12. 5% of patients. Thirty-one patients completed full course of CRT, while one patient discontinued chemotherapy due to Grade 4 thrombocytopenia. There were 3 cases (9. 4%) with complete response, 21 cases (65. 6%) with partial response, and the overall response rate was 75. 0%. Overall pain response (complete and partial pain relief) was achieved in 96. 9% of patients. The 1- and 2-year overall survival rate was 71. 0% and 56. 5%, respectively. Conclusion 3D-CRT combined with tegafur for locally recurrent rectal cancer is feasible with high patient compliance and tolerable toxicities.

Aim To investigate the effects of Fufangdanshen on TNF-? stimulated vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMC) and discover potential molecular mechanism to cure atherosclerosis at molecular level.Methods TNF-? stimulated VSMC was used as dysfunction cell model;VSMC proliferation was detected with MTT and FACS;proteomic protocol involving 2-DE,image analysis and spectrometry detection were used to detect regulated protein by Fufangdanshen.Results Fufangdanshen inhibited expression of 16 proteins but promoted expression of 24 proteins in TNF-? stimulated VSMC.The expression of CaMKK and N-ras were decreased by Fufangdanshen,which farther decreased matrix metalloproteinase production;while cell cycle related protein p21,p53 were increased by Fufangdanshen in TNF-? treated VSMC.Conclusion The inhibition of proliferation and migration of VSMC through decreased matrix metalloproteinase production and increased cell cycle related protein p21,p53 might be the mechanism of Fufangdanshen to cure atherosclerosis.

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.
