Object To establish the process of supercritical CO 2 extraction of glycyrrhetic acid from Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch.. Methods The comparison methods among supercritical CO 2 extraction, Soxhleth extraction and ultrasonic extraction were conducted. Results The optimized supercritical CO 2 extraction conditions were 30 MPa, pressure; 70 meshes, granularity of material; 80% ethanol, modifying agent; 45 ℃, extraction temperature; 2 hours, extraction time. Conclusion The results show that supercritical CO 2 extraction has an advantage over any other extractions of glycyrrhetic acid from G. uralensis.

Objective To explore the changes of plasma melatonin(MT)level in hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE)neonates,and elucidate the function of rnelatonin in the pathogenesis and the prognosis of HIE.Methods Fourty HIE neonates were divided into 2 groups,20 mild HIE neonates and 20 moderate or severe HIE ones.The femoral vein blood were collected in 48 h and on 7 d after birth in mild HIE group,and in 48 h,on 7 d and(14±4)d after birth in moderate on severe HIE group.Twenty normal term infants served as control group.The level of plasma MT was determined with enzyme-labeled immunosorbent assay.Results Compared with control group[(8.003±1.840)ng/L],The MT level in mild HIE group in 48 h after birth[(13.311±4.025)ng/L]was higher(P＜0.01),but there was no difference on 7 d[(6.605±1.269)ng/L](P＞0.05);The MT level in moderate or severe HIE group in 48 h after birth[(5.487±1.997)ng/L]was lower(P＜0.01),but it was higher on 7 d[(16.201±5.594)ng/L](P＜0.01),there was no difference on(14±4)d[(6.799±1.765)ng/L](P＞0.05).Conclusion MT may have protective action on HIE.The prognosis of HIE with rising MT level in 48 h after birth is better than that with lower MT level.

Objective To explore the relationship of the polymorphism of E-selectin gene A561C and essential hypertension (EH) among Chinese people. Methods Genotypes of E-selectin were analyzed in 95 EH patients with age ≤70 and 101 normal controls people matched in age and gender by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism ( PCR-RFLP). Serum levels of lipid, glucose, urea and creatinine were measured by biochemical techniques. Plasma soluble E-selectin were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Results The frequency of E-selection genotypes AA, AC and CC in EH group were significantly higher than normal group (P

Objective To investigate the effect of auto-skeletal muscle satellite cell implantation into ischemic myocardium on cardiac function and the mechanisms.Methods Approximately 10 7 to 10 9 muscle satellite cells(SCs)were cultivated in vitro.The left anterior descending(LAD)artery was ligated in Wistar rats to create myocardial infarction(MI).Some rats only underwent sham operation served as control.Two weeks after MI,autologous SCs,serum-free culture medium and sodium chloride injection were injected into ischemic myocardium of implantation rats(n=15),control rats(n=15)and myocardium around LAD of sham operation rats(SO,n=15),respectively.Four weeks after injection,hemodynamic parameters and cardiac function in all groups were evaluated by polygraph system,capillary density in the ischemic myocardium was demonstrated by immunohistochemical method,serum VEGF concentration was examined by ELISA,and the differentiated myofibers from SCs in the infarcted site were observed by pathologic examination and immunohistochemical method.Results Four weeks after injection,the SCs had progressively differentiated into striated muscle fibers in the myocardial infarction site,and immunohistochemical analysis confirmed their skeletal muscle origin.Compared with the SO rats,systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),mean ar-tery pressure(MAP),left ventricular systolic pressure(LVSP)and dp/dtmaxwere markedly decreased(P

Objective:To summarize the scope of relevant research on the psychological state of parents during perinatal loss of re-pregnancy, and summarize the research status, so as to provide reference for future research and intervention.Methods:From the establishment of the database to December 2020, the literatures of China biomedical literature database, China Knowledge Network, VIP, Wanfang database, Medline, CINAHL, Web of Science, psychINFO and Cochrane Library were searched, the studies related to the psychological state, feelings and experience of the population were screened, and the JBI scope Review Guide was used as the methodological framework for analysis.Select the research related to the psychological state, feelings and experience of the population, and use the JBI scope review guide as the methodological framework for analysis.Results:Finally, 25 literatures were included, including 11 qualitative studies and 14 quantitative studies. Perinatal loss leads to an increased risk of psychological diseases when parents were re-pregnants, facing a complex mixture of new hope and uncertainty, and fathers were even more troubled by dual identity, but some parents could still benefit from perinatal loss.Conclusions:At present, China is lack of attention to the parents of perinatal loss of re-pregnancy. Medical staff should respect the differences of parents′ emotional expression, formulate targeted intervention measures, reduce the negative impact of perinatal loss, and guide the generation of positive psychology of the parents of re pregnancy.

Objective    To investigate the clinical manifestations of patients with cardiac myxoma and the factors affecting the occurrence of embolic events. Methods     A retrospective study of 38 patients with cardiac myxoma diagnosed and surgically removed from January 2010 to December 2017 was performed. There were 11 males and 27 females at age of 32-75 (50.00±16.12) years. The patients were divided into a non-embolized group and an embolized group. The clinical manifestations of the patients were summarized and the factors leading to embolism were analyzed. Rseults    Of the 26 patients in the non-embolized group, 22 patients (84.62%) had dyspnea, 14 patients (53.85%) had palpitations, 4 patients (15.38%) had angina pectoris, and 1 patient (3.85%) had heart failure. Of the 12 patients in the embolized group, 4 patients (33.33%) had dyspnea, 3 patients (25%) had palpitations, and 1 patient (8.33%) had angina pectoris. The mean diameter of the non-embolized group was 5.71±1.63 cm, and the maximum diameter of the tumor in the embolized group was 4.52±1.88 cm. There was no significant difference between the maximum diameter of the tumor in the embolized group and the maximum diameter of the non-embolized group (P>0.05). Atrial fibrillation occurred in 2 patients in the non-embolized group before operation. Atrial fibrillation occurred in 5 patients in the embolized group. Atrial fibrillation was more likely to occur in the embolized group (P<0.05). Conclusion     Atrial fibrillation in the patients with cardiac myxoma is closely related to embolic events. The size of myxoma is not related to the occurrence of embolic events.

Objective     To evaluate efficacy of amiodarone in the prevention of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting. Methods     CBM (from January 1978 to August 2017), CNKI (from January 1987 to August 2017), VIP (from January 1989 to August 2017), Wanfang (from January 1998 to August 2017) and PubMed (from January 1989 to August 2017) databases were searched. The articles were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Quality of articles was assessed by improved Jadad scale. Statistical analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3. Results     There were 19 articles meeting inclusion criteria including 2 817 patients and all were randomized controlled trial (RCT). There were 16 articles with high quality and 3 articles with low quality by improved Jadad scale. Compared with the placebo, amiodarone had a significant effect on reducing the incidence of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting (RR=0.37, 95% CI 0.28 to 0.50, P<0.000 01) and different administration models and time of amiodarone had effect on the atrial fibrillation after aterial bypass grafting (P<0.05). Conclusion    Compared with the placebo, amiodarone is effective in reducing the incidence of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting.
