Objective To investigate chitosan flocculating and other pretreatments of Huoxue Tongluo extract and their effects on the membrane flux and fouling degree of membrane. Methods Based on the index related to the total sinomenine reserved in liquid and fouling degree of membrane, compared to other pretreatments, discuss the function of chitosan used as flocculation and the effect on membrane separation by orthogonal test. Results The reservation of the total sinomenine was best by means of chitosan flocculation and the smallest fouling degree of membrane was it too, compared with other pretreatments as decompress filtration, high-speed-centrifugation, low-speed-centrifugation and decolored by active carbon. Conclusion Chitosan flocculating is the best pretreatment method of Huoxue Tongluo extract, and the suggested operation condition is that the Huoxue Tongluo extract’s temperature is 50 ℃, pH=5 and add 1% chitosan 30 mL/L.

In traditional Chinese medicine,medical practice is combined with qi,which forms special qi-theory.Body fluid which includes blood and Jin-ye is the fluid structure of human being.Nutrient qi and defensive qi depend on these two kinds of body fluid.Defensive qi not only maintains physiological functions of Jin-ye,but also participates pathomechanism such as Jin-ye consumption,retention,etc.The identity of defensive qi and Jin-ye plays an important role in theory and clinic.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of lornoxicam used for craniotomy. Methods60 neurosugical patients, ASA physical I～II, were randomly allocated into three groups to receive normal saline in controlled group (GroupⅠ), lornoxicam 8 mg (Group Ⅱ) and lornoxicam 24 mg (Group Ⅲ) intravenously 10～15 min before anesthesia. The end-tidal concentration of isoflurane was measured. The volumes of bleeding, transfusion, fluid infusion and urine were recorded. The time of consciousness, psychomotor and cognitive recoveries from general anesthesia were observed. The VAS scores of pain were evaluated 48 h after operation.ResultsThe concentrations of end-tidal isoflurane in the controlled group were significantly higher than other groups (P<0.01). There was no difference among the three groups in the volume of bleeding, transfusion, infusion and urine. The recovery time of conscious, psychomotor and cognitive from general anesthesia were shorter in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ (P<0.01). The total dose of tramadol and VAS score after the operation were no difference among the three groups.ConclusionThe preoperative application of lornoxicam can reduce the concentrations of end-tidal isoflurane significantly, smooth the recovery from anesthesia.

Objective To clone, express and purify human PIF1 protein and analyze its ATPase activity. Methods The PIF1 cDNA was amplified by PCR from HeLa cell cDNA library and inserted to pET24b with histidine tag at its terminus to form pET24b-PIF1 plasmid. The recombinant pET24b-PIF1 plasmid was transformed to RosettaTM 2 (DE3) and the expression of PIF1 protein was monitored by SDS-PAGE analysis. By using fast protein liquid chromatograph (FPLC) system, the PIF1 protein was purified by affinity chromatograph and gel filtration. The ATPase activity of PIF1 was checked by thin layer chromatograph(TLC). Results The PIF1 protein was successfully cloned and expressed in E.coli. Conclusions The purification procedure of PIF1 protein was established using FPLC. The overexpressed and the purified PIF1 helicase has DNA and Mg2+ dependent ATPase activity.

Treating different diseases with the same method is a unique original thinking in Chinese medicine, which embodies the spirit of treatment based on syndrome differentiation. We briefly reviewed the origin and development of this concept. We also reviewed that thinking of combination of disease and syndrome is its premise and foundation. We put forward the conditionality of diseases in treating different diseases with the same method by cutting-in modern biological basic researches, that is to say, one kind specific diseases or disease of one specific system. We emphasized the importance of diseases conditionality in treating different diseases with the same method, which was of great significance in studies on combination of disease and syndrome, correspondence of prescription and syndrome, and modern biological basic researches of treating different diseases with the same method.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of Brucella orchitis, so as to provide reliable evidence for the prevention and treatment of the disease.

METHODSWe conducted retrospective statistical analyses on the medical records of 48 outpatients and 21 inpatients with Brucella orchitis.

RESULTSBrucella orchitis was diagnosed in 6.67% of the male patients with brucellosis (69/1 034). The disease exhibited typical epidemiological features, with a higher incidence rate among those in frequent contact with sheep and elderly people, in the period from April to July, and in the areas with sheep husbandry. All the Brucella orchitis patients had such local symptoms as testicular pain and swelling, more frequently involving both testes, and other most common symptoms included fever, chills, sweating, and painful joints. Based on IIEF-5, 45 of the patients suffered from severe erectile dysfunction, with their reproductive function temporarily affected in the course of the disease. Misdiagnosis easily occurred in the early stage of the disease. Therapeutic options mainly included doxycycline hydrochloride and rifampicin, administered orally or intravenously, which could effect a cure, though relapse might occur in some cases.

CONCLUSIONBru- cella orchitis has distinct epidemiological characteristics, with clinical manifestations of testicular pain and swelling. Though a transient disease, it affects the reproductive function of the patient before cured. It can be treated by combined oral and intravenous medication, with painkillers or ice bags for testicular pain and swelling.

Objective Study on the traceability of serum enzyme ass ays by testing enzyme reference material in clinical laboratories. Methods 50 laboratories were involved in this survey. One enzyme reference material was send to each participate lab. The reference material was tested by use of routine method and the results were recorded. All lab data were processed with computer. Results Compare with the target values, the bias of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LD) assays were 6 3%, 5 5%, -5 9% and -5 0% respectively, the bias of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assays was -36 6. The inter laboratory coefficient variation of the amylase assay was 29 2%. Conclusions The results of enzyme assay in clinical laboratories could be traced to the international reference material.

From the view of realizing health justice,The paper discusses the consistent objective between health justice and "Primary Health Care for all".It put forward and expound that PHC is the effective path of realizing health justice in new period,and some proposal which strengthen government's responsibity and function about PHC,as well as develop the health service in community both in urban and rural areas,with the focus on PHC in rural areas.
