Objective To observe the clinical effects of self-prescribed Anshen pills in the treatment of female patients with menopausal syndrome . Methods From August 2012 to September 2014, 100 female patients with menopausal syndrome in Tianjin Beichen District Chinese Medicine were randomly divided into control group (50 cases) and observation group (50 cases).The control group received tibolone orally, and the observation group received self-prescribed Anshen pills orally.All treated for 3 months.Modified Kupperman score, self-rating anxiety scale ( SAS) score, self-rating depression scale (SDS) score, Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) score, menopause-specific quality of life (MENQOL) score, the main clinical symptoms and hormone levels in serum were compared; the adverse reactions were recorded.Results Compared with control group post-treatment, hot flashes and perspiration, insominia improved greatly in observation group.The serum levels of luteinizing hormone ( LH ) in observation group was (28.04 ±3.37)IU/L, which was higher than (24.48 ±6.63)IU/L in control group.PSQI score in observation group was (6.57 ±1.23), which was lower than (8.18 ±1.70) in control group.The incidence of adverse reactions in observation group was 4.0%, which was lower than 18.0% in control group, and there were significant differences between two groups ( P<0.05 ) .Conclusion Self-prescribed Anshen pills is effective and safe for menopausal syndrome.

Objective To discuss the relationship between peptic ulcer in children and food-specific IgG, and to evaluate the effect of avoiding the intolerant food on treatment of peptic ulcer. Method Fourteen kinds of food specific IgG in 69 cases of peptic ulcer were tested by ELISA. The patient′s intolerance to different foods and its relationship with age , sex and different ulcer were analyzed. The efficacy of avoiding the intolerant food was assessed after 8 weeks. Results Total positive of food-specific IgG in children with peptic ulcer was 94.2%. For preschool children, the highest intolerance rates were in milk and eggs; for school-age and adolescence children, the highest intolerance rate was in eggs. As the age increases, kinds of intolerant food increased too. Ulcer healing rate in observation group was higher than that in the control group after 8 weeks. Conclusions High positive percentage of food- specific IgG was found in children with peptic ulcer , indicating a possible correlation of peptic ulcer and food-intolerance. Kinds of intolerant food correlates with the age group , but not with sex and ulcer sites. Avoiding the intolerant food may increase ulcer healing rate.

Purpose To explore the accuracy of ALK fused gene expression by immunohistochemistry ( IHC) in non-small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC) patients, and to investigate the clinical and pathological features of ALK-positive NSCLC patients. Methods By u-sing rabbit monoclonal D5F3 antibody, ALK IHC was performed on 234 NSCLC patients. ALK positive cases were confirmed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR) . Results The positive incidence of ALK by IHC in 234 NSCLC specimens was 8. 97% (21/234), the positive rate of ALK fused gene verificated by RT-PCR was 5. 98% (14/234). There was significant difference with histological type, age, stage (P<0. 05), but no significant difference with gender, smoking history, tumor differentiation. Of 21 cases of ALK-positive NSCLC patients, the consistency of IHC and RT-PCR was 0 when IHC was ( +) , however, when IHC was or immunohistochemical score was >120, the consistency rate was 100%. Conclusion Although immunohistochemical expres-sion of ALK fused gene may have a certain false positive, IHC or immunohistochemical score> 120 show very high value for ALK fused gene RT-PCR followed by ALK immunohistochemistry in lung cancer is a economical and feasible method for the valuation of ALK fused gene.
