OBJECTIVE:To investigate influential factors of standardization of clinical research on therapeutic efficacy of Yao-tongning capsules,and to provide direction for reasonable and standard development of clinical research. METHODS:Retrieved from CJFD,VIP and Wanfang database,RCTs about Yaotongning capsules in the treatment of related disease were collected. After data extraction and quality evaluation,Meta-analysis was conducted by using Rev Man 5.3 statistical software. The effects of the di-alectical situation,treatment course and route of administration on the evaluation of therapeutic efficacy of Yaotongning capsules were compared;based on this,the concepts of index evidence-based value which reflected clinical standardization were put for-ward,and its effects on Yaotongning capsules were investigated. RESULTS:A total of 71 RCTs were included,involving 11009 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed therapeutic efficacy of Yaotongning capsules was better than that of other drugs in dialecti-cal case(P=0.02),while therapeutic efficacy of Yaotongning capsules was inferior to that of other drugs in non-dialectical case(P<0.01);therapeutic efficacy of Yaotongning capsules was inferior to that of other drugs when treatment course was shorter than 30 days(P<0.05),while treatment course was longer than 30 days,there was no difference in therapeutic efficacy between Yaotongn-ing capsules and other drugs(P=0.99). When did not take medicine according to the instruction,therapeutic efficacy of Yaotongn-ing capsule was inferior to that of other drugs(P<0.05);when taking medicine according to the instruction,there was no differ-ence in therapeutic efficacy between Yaotongning capsules and other drugs(P=0.94). When evidence-based value was ≥5,thera-peutic efficacy of Yaotongning capsules was better than that of other drugs(P=0.03);when evidence-based value was equal to 4, there was no difference in therapeutic efficacy between Yaotongning capsules and other drugs(P=0.56);when evidence-based val-ue was ≤3,therapeutic efficacy of Yaotongning capsules was inferior to that of other drugs(P<0.05),with statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS:It is an important guarantee of playing therapeutic efficacy of Yaotongning capsules to regularly use drugs strictly according to the principle of dialectical treatment,and take drugs according to treatment course and instructions. Clinical trials should be standardized strictly in accordance with the instructions,so as to provide objective and fair clinical findings.

Objective To investgate the expression and the clinical significance of survivin in the primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods S-P immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect the expression of survivin in 50 samples of HCC tissue and 20 of normal liver tissue. Results The positive rate of survivin expression in HCC was 66. 0% (33/50) , which was significantly higher than that in normol liver tissues (negative expression) (P<0. 001). The expression of survivin was correlated with intrahepatic dissemination and multiple masses (P = 0. 019, P=0. 030). The high survivin expression was associated with the survival time less than three years(P = 0. 018). Conclusion The survivin may play certain roles in the oncogenesis and progression of HCC. Detection of the survivin can supply certain evidence on prognosis of primary hepatocellular carcinoma.

The left ventricular function of 103 normal subjects in the age range of 17 to 48 were examined with three echocardiographic methods, the Pombo's method (Method I), Fortuin's method (Method II) and Lalani's method (Method III), in order to evaluate their relative efficiency. The results were as following:( 1 ) The value of left ventricular end diastolic volume determined with Method II was larger than that determined with Method 1(123. 9?22.6vsl05. 43?26.0 ml, P0. 05).( 2 ) The values of stroke volume, stroke index, cardiac output, and cardiac index were the largest as determined with Method II, the second with Method I and the smallest with Method III. For instance, the value of cardiac index was 4.66 ?1.21 /m2/min wita Method 11,3.81?1.0 with Method I, and 2.96?0.8 with Method III(P0. 05).( 4 ) All the parameters obtained from Methods I and II were correlated with each other closely (r = 0.72 - 0.96, P0.05).( 5 ) Methods I and II are simple to operate and easy to reproduce and there have been a lot of parameters obtained with these two methodds. However the systolic mitral closure slope of Method III is rather difficult to determine and the parameters obtained with Method III are comparatively less in number.It is concluded that Methods I and I of the echocardiographic technique are the methods of choice in determining the left ventricular function of a normals-sized or nearly normal-sized heart since they are simple, effective and accurate.

Objective To study the effect of mixed purified autogenic and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus. Methods Thirty-six MRL/lpr mice were randomly divided into the control group, the study group,the mixed group ( the ratio of autogenic to hematopoietic stem cells, mixed in different proportions were infused intravenously after 60Co irradiation. The study group were treated with daily intraperitoneal infusion of dexamethasone 1 mg·kg-1·d-1, while the control group were treated with intraperitoneal infusion of equivalent volume of saline daily. The changes of serum creatinine level, the urine protein excretion of the mice and blood WBC count were compared. Repeat measures ANOVA was used for data analysis. ELISA was used for anti-nuclear antibody detection Light microscopy, electronic micros-copy, immunofluorescence were applied to detect the pathological changes in renal tissue. Results Serum creatinine and urine protein excretion levels increased with time in the ontrol group, while those of the transplant group and the study group decreased. The reduction in mixed transplantation group and the study group was more evident compared with that of the allogeneic group. The difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05), but there was no significant difference between the mixed transplantation groups and the study group (P＞0.05). The histopathologic damage was most serious in the control group as pathological injury score of most mice were in grade 3 or 4. The majority of the histopathologic damage of the allogeneic group was in grade 2. Most f pathological damage of the study drug group and the mixed transplantation group were grade 1 or 2. Conclusion Mixed hematoopoietic stem cell transplantation for the treatment of murine systemic lupus erythematosus can effectively correct heavy proteinuria in murine systemic lupus erythematosus so improve the renal damage. It is a safe and effectively way to treat murine systemic lupus erythematosus.
