Objective To investigate the effect of Yiqi Huoxue prescriptions on prevention of neointima hyperplasia after carotid artery vascular injury in rats.Methods Ninty male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups:the model group,the aspirin group,the low-dose Yiqi Huoxue group,the mid-dose Yiqi Huoxue group and the high-dose Yiqi Huoxue group.All of the rats were fed with hypercholesterolemic diet for 30 days,then the 2.0F balloon catheter injury was perfomed through the right femoral artery into the left common carotid artery of rats,the balloon was inflated and deflated 3 times.The rats was given drugs from 1 d before injury and to 5 d,14 d,28 d after injury.Around 6 rats from each group were euthanized by exsanguination at appropriate time point.The injuried left common carotid arteries were carefully removed and harvested for HE staining.Results The neointima hyperplasia was faint at 5 d after the operation.Morphological analysis demonstrated that there were markedly differences in the area of neointima hyperplasia at 14 d or 28 d,the average thickness of neointima hyperplasia,the surplus area of lumen/the total area of lumen between the high-dose Yiqi Huoxue group and the model group(P

Objective To explore the factors affecting the prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients,using COX risk model to carry on the statistical analysis of 154 cases of pancreatic carcinoma.Methods Retrospectively analyzed 154 pancreatic cancer cases' history date treated in April 2001-April 2008 of Fujian Medical University Union Hospital.Survival rate was caculated by Kaplan-Meier estimation while survival cruve was analysed by Log-rank test.Prognostic factors were studied by multivariate analysis with COX proportional hazards survival model.Results In this group,survival time was from 1 to 106 months and the median survival time was 8 months.Overall survival rates at 6 months,12 months,18 months,36 months were 58.4％,29.2％,16.3％ and 3.7％ respectively.Multivariate revealed that independent prognostic factors were follows:TNM tumor staging,operation mode and synthetic therapy.Conclusions The prognosis of patients with pancreatic carcinoma is determined by multiple factors.Patients of advanced TNM staging have a poorer prognosis.Radical resection and comprehensive treatment of patients prognosis is better.

To investigate the freshness, high molecular weight substances, the determination of polypeptide, haemolysis and agglomeration, biological activity of Cervus and Cucumis polypeptide injection; to provide the direction for improving the quality of products for enterprises; furthermore, to provide reference for the revision of the quality standards of Cervus and Cucumis polypeptide injection. Firstly, we investigated the factors affecting the freshness of the injection, including biogenic amines, aflatoxins, the acid value and peroxide value of the melon seeds. The method of dansyl chloride pre-column derivatization-HPLC was used to determine the content of 8 biogenic amines in Cervus and Cucumis polypeptide injection. The method validation results showed good specificity, precision, linearity and recovery rates, which was suitable for the determination of biogenic amines in Cervus and Cucumis polypeptide injection. The results of sample determination showed that relatively higher concentrations of cadaverine were detected in the products from company B. The results of aflatoxins, acid value and peroxide value showed that the melon seeds from some companies had rancidity, mildew and other problems, indicating that the quality standards of multi-component biochemical drugs containing animal- and plant-derived components should be controlled in terms of freshness. Secondly, the methods for the determination of high molecular weight substances and polypeptides in the quality standard were improved. Tricine-SDS-PAGE electrophoresis was used instead of gel chromatography to determine the high molecular weight substances, which improved the accuracy of determination. The kits were used instead of folin-phenol for the determination of peptide content, which is easy to operate, specific and suitable for high-throughput sample determination. Finally, the haemolysis, agglomeration, and biological activity of Cervus and Cucumis polypeptide injection were studied. The results showed that no haemolysis and agglomeration were found in all samples, and the inhibitory effect of samples on THP-1 proliferation in vitro from different companies was different to some extent. In conclusion, the optimized quality standard is more suitable for the detection of Cervus and Cucumis polypeptide injection, and can lay the foundation for improving the safety of multi-component biochemical drugs.

Objective To evaluate the clinical characteristics and the clinical outcomes of perianal abscess (PA) in neonates.Methods A retrospective review was performed on the collected data of 185 patients of PA in neonates prospectively admitted to Binzhou Medical University Hospital from January 2008 to December 2015.Patients were divided into 2 groups on the parents' intention:nonsurgical treatment and surgical treatment,the standard surgical treatment for PA was incision and drainage with the use of packing.The standard surgical treatment for PA was surgical incision drainage of lower abscess under local anesthesia by the use of filling tamponade iodoform gauze,while the patients receiving conservative treatment took hip bath perianally with topical 1 ∶ 5 000 potassium permanganate,besmearing erythromycin eye ointment outside locally.Incision-thread-drawing procedure was recommended in fistula-in-ano (FIA) after 6 months.Antibiotics were administered in all patients in the early days.The clinical data of age,gender,accompanying diseases,abscess amount and location,treatment approach,healing time and recurrence rates were analyzed with statistical method.Results All patients were boys,time of visiting hospital was 1-25 day,the average time 7.5 days;60 cases (32.4％)had neonatal diarrhea,45 cases (24.3％)had neonatal jaundice,but no patients had severe fever.A single skin lesion was present in 145 patients (78.4％),2 lesions in 30 patients (16.2％),and 10 patients had 3 lesions (5.4％).The most commonly affected sites were at 9 o'clock clockwise direction with 115 (62.2％)lesions on lithotomy position,followed by 3 o'clock clockwise direction with 65(35.1％) lesions by 1 o'clock clockwise direction with 3 (1.6％) lesions and 6 o'clock clockwise direction with 2 (1.1％) lesions.Bacteria cultures were obtained from 123 patients (90.4％,123/136 cases) of surgical treatment and 35 patients (71.4％,35/49 cases) of nonsurgical treatment obtained the results of bacteria culture.The average healing time was (21 ±2) days (10-60 days) in the surgical treatment group,and (36 ± 3) days (9-90 days) in the nonsurgical treatment group,7 out of 136(5.1％) patients had a recurrence with surgical treatment,incision drainage was performed again with the use of packing,and FIA was not found,10 out of 49 (20.4％) patients had a recurrence with nonsurgical treatment group,and 6 out of 49 (12.2％) were spontaneously resolves within the first year of life,4 out of 49 (8.1％) developed into FIA,incision-thread-drawing procedure was performed after 6 months.The significant difference was observed between and nonsurgical treatment and surgical treatment in healing time (t =-6.707,P =0.000),recurrence (x2 =11.347,P =0.001) and FIA formation rate (x2 =10.054,P=0.002).Conclusions PA is an entity in neonates.Incision and drainage of PA is an effective and safe therapy in the early days.Surgery for PA may result in low recurrence rates,a low rate of evolution toward FIA,and a short healing time,which should be considered as the primary treatment.The key procedure is to keep the drainage unobstructed by the use of filling gauze drainage to prevent crissum abscess recurrence.Postoperative care with antibiotics is effective to shorten hospital stays.

Objective:To study the correlation between hearing loss and cognitive decline in community-dwelling older adults and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods:Using Pure-tone audiometry, the Hearing Handicap Inventory for the Elderly (HHIE), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and Generalized Anxiety Disorder, a survey was conducted with 492 community-dwelling older adults aged 60 years and above in Beijing. Age, gender, education level, hearing loss, levels of anxiety and depression, and other factors were used as independent variables, and the MMSE scores were used as dependent variables. Analysis of variance and multiple linear regression were performed.Results:Among the 492 subjects, based on the better ears, 418 (85.0%) had hearing loss and 160 (32.5%) had disabled hearing loss. Factors such as age (β=-0.33, P<0.01), gender (β=0.09, P=0.04), education level (β=0.31, P<0.01), hearing loss (β=-0.11, P=0.02) and marital status (β=0.56, P=0.02) were significantly related to cognitive decline. Gender (β=-0.17, P<0.01) and hearing loss (β=0.08, P=0.02) correlated with anxiety indicators; gender (β=-0.84, P=0.02) and hearing loss (β=0.04, P=0.01) also correlated with depression indicators. Conclusion:Results indicated a correlation between hearing loss and cognitive decline, and between hearing loss and anxiety and depression among community-dwelling older adults in Beijing.
