OBJECTIVE: To study the feasibility of quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker (QAMS) in determination of flavones in Shuanghuanglian preparations by comparing the results assayed by QAMS and external standard method (ESM). METHODS: The analysis was performed on a Xtimate™ C18 column (4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 μm)with methanol and water containing 0.2% phosphoric acid as the mobile phase in gradient elution. The flow rate was set at 1.0 mL · min-1. The UV detector wavelength was 274 nm, and the column temperature was 30°C. RESULTS: Within the linear ranges, the analysis results showed no significant difference between QAMS and ESM. CONCLUSION: The QAMS method is credible and will be a new quality evaluation pattern for the determination of multiple flavones in Shuanghuanglian preparations.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of early rehabilitation on disability of motion and cognition.Methods107 patients were randomly divided into two groups,rehabilitation group (51 cases) and control group (56 cases).Patients in rehabilitation group were given regular early rehabilitation,while all patients in both groups were given usual clinical treatment. The Barthel Index (BI), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Mini-mental Status Examination (MMSE) were used to evaluate these two groups before and 3 months after treatment. ResultsAfter treatment, the scores of BI, FMA and MMSE were improved significantly(P<0.05) in rehabilitation group compared with that before treatment, so did that of BI, FMA in control group(P<0.05).The scores of BI、FMMS、MMSE in rehabilitation group improved significantly compared with that in control group(P<0.05).ConclusionEarly rehabilitation may obviously improve the motive and cognitive function and increase the quality of living of hemiplegia after stroke.

Objective To learn the existing state of Keshan disease and its trend in Baoji City,and to provide a scientific basis for control of the disease.Methods Feng,Qianyang,Linyou and Long Counties,the Keshan disease affected areas were selected to carry out the case study,and Keshan cases were searched from all registered cases of myocardial patients of the past three years at county-level medical institutions and hospitals of townships(towns).Thirteen villages affected by Keshan disease in Qianyang,Fengxiang,Feng,Linyou and Long Counties were selected as monitoring points to carry out a intensified monitoring.All subjects were surveyed by comprehensive clinical physical examination and 12-lead ECG tracings,and they were diagnosed according to the Keshan disease diagnostic criteria.Ten households were selected randomly in each monitoring point(village),and self-produced wheat samples and adult subject's occipital hair samples were collected for detecting selenium levels.Results Seven hundred and forty-six cardiac cases which containing 17 cases of chronic Keshan disease were discovered in 32 medical institutions,and there were no acute and subacute type of Keshan disease patients.Five thousand seven hundred and twenty-three subjects were examined in the 13 monitoring sites,and 65 cases of Keshan disease were diagnosed which including 17 cases of slow and 48 cases of potential Keshan disease,and no acute or subacute case was found.The total detection rate was 1.14％,and the detection rate ranged from 0 to 2.86％.Hair selenium mean was 0.420 mg/kg; wheat selenium mean was 0.079 mg/kg.Conclusions The Keshan disease detection rate of Baoji City is at a low level.The selenium level of local residents has reached the level of non-endemic area.Constant detection of patient with Keshan disease means various control measures should be reinforced.The comprehensive monitoring program,such as monitoring people's in vivo and in vitro selenium level and others,should be established as soon as possible.

Objective: To learn the health literacy status, trend and associated factors of Ningbo residents from 2015 to 2019, so as to provide basis for developing health policies and interventions. Methods: The monitoring data of health literacy of Ningbo residents from 2015 to 2019 was collected. The health literacy level was calculated and standardized by the population data of the sixth national census of Ningbo in 2010; five-year absolute growth and growth rate were used to reflect the changing trend. Multivariate logistic regression model was employed to analyze the influencing factors for the health literacy level. Results: The health literacy levels from 2015 to 2019 were 15.44%, 21.73%, 22.41%, 27.60% and 30.03%, with an annual increase trend ( P<0.05 ). The five-year absolute growth and growth rate were 14.59% and 94.49%. The Results of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the year ( OR=1.158, 95%CI: 1.132-1.184 ), age ( 25-<35岁 years, OR=1.235, 95%CI: 1.039-1.468; 35-<45岁 years, OR=1.416, 95%CI: 1.193-1.681; 45-<55岁 years, OR=1.221, 95%CI: 1.024-1.455 ) , education level ( primary school, OR=1.790, 95%CI: 1.461-2.195; junior high school, OR=2.574, 95%CI: 2.102-3.154; high school/vocational high school/technical secondary school, OR=4.863, 95%CI: 3.943-5.998; college or above, OR=8.829, 95%CI: 7.109-10.965 ) , urban areas ( OR=0.934, 95%CI: 0.874-0.998 ) and occupation ( farmers, OR=0.692, 95%CI: 0.608-0.787; workers, OR=0.746, 95%CI: 0.664-0.837; enterprise staff, OR=0.822, 95%CI: 0.745-0.906; others, OR=1.106, 95%CI: 1.009-1.211 ) were the influencing factors for health literacy level. Conclusion The health literacy level of Ningbo residents shows an upward trend from 2015 to 2019, which are associated with age, education level, area and occupation.

Objective:To propose a method to evaluate the total body water (TBW) of patients on hemodialysis with urea kinetic model (UKM), and compare it with body surface bio-impedance spectrum (BIS) analysis. Methods:We enrolled 24 adult patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) without hyper-catabolism in our dialysis center. All of them had been on hemodialysis for more than 3 months. TBW was measured with BIS analysis immediately before and after dialysis session, and one hour after hemodialysis session. Spent dialysate was collected; blood samples were taken before and one hour after hemodialysis session, TBW before hemodialysis session were calculated by UKM. Results:Patients were 6 men and 18 women, the average age was (51.2?13.5) years and the average time on dialysis was (33.2?36.7) months. Causes of ESRD included chronic glomerulonephritis (8 patients), diabetic nephropathy (1 patients), hypertensive renal damage (1 patients), interstitial nephritis(two patients), chronic pyelonephritis (two patients). The average ultrafiltration volume was (2.7?1.0) L (0.5-4.4 L) . Plasma urea concentrations were (23.06?5.76) mmol/L and (8.15?2.06) mmol/L before and one hour after hemodialysis session, respectively. There was no significant difference between TBW measured immediately after and one hour after hemodialysis session with BIS analysis [(29.9?8.8) L and (29.8?8.6) L, respectively; average difference was (0.1?0.9)L, P=0.70]. These two measurements correlated very well (Pearson r=0.99, P

Objective: To study the fluid distribution abnormalities in patients on hemodialysis and fluid shift between intracellular and extracellular compartment during hemodialysis (HD).Methods: Eighty stable end stage renal disease patients on maintenance hemodialysis were selected. Conventional low flux dialyses at dialysate sodium concentration of 138 mmoL/L were performed for all of the patients. Fresenius polysulphons or Gambro hemophon dialyzers were used. All of the patients showed no clinical signs of over ultrafiltration during HD sessions and dry body weights were considered adequate. Intracellular water (ICW), extracellular water (ECW) and total body water (TBW) were measured and standardized by body weight (nICW, nECW, nTBW) before and after HD sessions. Sixty-seven cases of sex, age and body weight matched normal individuals were used as controls. Bio-impedance spectrum (BIS) analysis (Xitron, Technolo gies, San Diego, CA, USA) was used in body fluid measurement. Pre and post HD nICW, nECW, and nTBW were compared with these of the controls.Results: There were no differences in age, post-dialysis body weight and body mass index between patients on hemodialysis and the controls. Patients on hemodialysis had less nICW [male (0.28?0.05) vs (0.33?0.04), P

3T3-L1 adipocytes transfected with TSH receptor (TSHR) shRNA were incubated with bovine TSH.The concentration of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in culture medium was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent asssy.Protein level of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) was quantified by Western blotting.Tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 was measured by immunoprecipitation.The results showed that 1 mIU/ml TSH significantly sitmulated TNF-α release in 3T3-L1 adipocytes [(341.85 ± 12.00 vs 522.67 ± 36.22) ng/L,P＜0.01],along with the decreases in IRS-1 protein expression and its tyrosine phosphorylation (P＜ 0.01).These effects disappeared when TSHR expression was down-regulated with RNA interference in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.In addition,WP9QY,a TNF-α antagonist,blocked TSH-decreased IRS-1 expresssion.These results suggest that TSH downregulates IRS-1 protein expression and its tyrosine phosphorylation through stimulating production of TNF-α,and thus contributes to the development of insulin resistance.
