Objective To investigate the effect of chaishao chengqi decoction and mirabilite synthesis treatment for patients of severe acute panereatitis (SAP). Methods 62 cases of SAP were randomly divided into treatment group (n = 32) and control group (n = 30). Conventional treatment was administrated to control group, while chaishao chengqi decoction and mirabilite were added to treatment group. The duration of abdominal pain, the time of the first bowel, days of gastrointestinal decompression, average days of hospitalization, hyperamylasemia, complication and mortality was compared. Results The duration of abdominal pain, the time of the first bowel, days of gastrointestinal decompression, average days of hospitalization and complication rate were (5.8 ± 2.5) d, (1.84 ± 0. 67) d, (8.2 ± 2.2) d, (21.2 ± 12.5) d and 15.6% in treatment group,respectively, which were lower than those in the control group (P <0.05). Duration of hyperamylasemia (10.2 ± 3.2d) and mortality rate (3.12%) in treatment group was lower than those in the control group without statistic difference (P > 0. 05). Coucluslons Based on conventional therapy, chaishao chengqi Decoction and mirabilite could improve gastrointestinal function of SAP, shorten course of disease, reduce the occurrence of complication and improve the prognosis.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for cardiovascular complications in the elderly persons undergone with dialysis.Methods One hundred and eighteen patients undergone with hemodialysis(HD)or continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis(CAPD)at the Eastern Hospital, Tongji University, Shanghai during January 2002 to December 2006 were retrospectively analyzed.They were divided into four groups based oil their age and mode of dialysis, i.e., 44 patients in the elderly HD group(aged over 60years), 16 patients in the elderly CAPD group(aged over 60), 46 patients in medium-age HD group(aged under 60 years)and 12 patients in the medium-age CAPD group(aged under 60).Routine biochemical parameters were measured for all the patients and their difference was compared among the four groups.Logistic regression analysis was performed for the risk factors of cardiovascular complications.Results Pulse pressure(PP)was(66±21)mm Hg, serum level of triglycerides(TG)was(1.28±0.67)mmol/L, serum level of lipoprotein(a)[LP(a)]was(434±202)mg/L, C-reactive protein was(CRP)(21±15)mg/L, serum phosphorous(P3-)was(2.02±0.77)mmol/L, and product of serum calcium and phosphorous(Ca×P)was(4.3±1.6)mmol2/L2, respectively, in the elderly group with dialysis, all significantly higher than those in the medium-age group with dialysis(t=1.535, 1.016, 2.154, 2.252, 4.676, and 4.534, respectively, P＜0.05).Incidence of cardiovascular events was markedly lower in the CAPD group than that in the HD group(P＜0.05), either in the elderly or medium-aged patients.And, incidence of cardiovascular complications correlated positively with age, PP, LP(a), CRP and Ca×P of the patients with dialysis, but correlated reversely with serum level of albumin(all with P＜0.05).Conclusions There exist a few risk factors for cardiovascular complications in the elderly patients with dialysis, so proper mode of dialysis should be selected for those who need it and adequate intervention should be implemented for them to correct the risk factors.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs about 18-25 nucleotides in length,involved in post-transcriptional genes regulation process.Previous studies showed that miRNAs played an important regulatory role in pancreatic development,gene expression,and synthesis and secretion of insulin.A variety of miRNAs which expressed in islet β cells may affect the proliferation and differentiation of islet β cells.Since miRNAs showed tissue specificity,their expression changes were closely related to some diseases.Thus,integrative studies with miRNAs over the essence of syndromes of traditional Chinese medicine could provide new ideas for the treatment of diabetes.

Objective To evaluate the curative effect of potassium magnesium aspartate on arrhythmia and heart function in valve replacement postoperative patients of rheumatic heart disease. Methods Two hundred and eighty patients with rheumatic heart disease were divided into 2 groups in random,with no statistical significance. Treatment group (n=155) were received i.v. potassium magnesium aspartate 40 ml every day and control group (n=125) were only given conventional therapy. At the same time they were given same treatment. Blood magnesium level,blood potassium levels,arrhythmia incidences and heart function were also observed. Results Blood magnesium and potassium levels of the treatment group were higher than those of the control group (P

Objective To study the effects of recombinant human growth hormone(rhGH) on the treatment for valve replacement postoperative in rheumatic heart disease associated cardiac eaehex.Methods Fortytwo patients with rheumatic heart disease associated cardiac eachexia were divided into two groups.Group one(n=20,rhGH group) received standard enteral nutrition (15 kal·kg-1 · d-1)with rhGH 10U injection subeutaneously from postoperation day 7 to day 14 and group two(n = 22,eontrol group) received standard enteral nutrition (15 kal·kg-1· d-1) for the same period.Haemoglobin, serum total protein, serum albumin, blood glucose, handgrip exercise and triceps skin_fold thickness were determined.Meehanieal ventilation, hypostatie pneumonia incidence rate, and length of stay were observed.Results The levels of serum total protein, serum albumin and blood glucose eoneentration in the rhGH group at the 14th day were inereased significantly compared to that in the control group(P <0.01).Haemoglobin, triceps skinfold thiekness and handgrip exercise in rhGH group were significantly different from those in the control group(P <0.05).Postoperative meehanieal ventilation time, intensive care unit time, hospital stay time were signifieantly shorter than those in the eontrol group (P < 0.05), and hypostatie pneumonia was significantly lower than that in the eontroi group(P < 0.01).Conclusions The rhGH can obviously improve anabolie effects of patients with rheumatic heart disease associated cardiac eachexia whieh can reduce hypostatie pneumonia and shorten postoperative hospital stay time.

97 cases of jaw bone fractures were treated with rigid internal fixation.16 cases had malocclusion postoperation.The etiology was analyzed and the prevention methods were proposed.Intermaxillary elastic traction or fixation and craniomaxillofacial fixation or craniomentum elastic traction were performed to treat the malocclusion.By this way,14 cases were cured.1 case was operated again to resume the normal occlusion,1 case received occlusal adjustment.Incomplete reduction,incorrect operative performance,deficiency of postoperative intermaxillary fixation and incorrect intermaxillary fixation were the main causes to malocclusion.So anatomic in time reduction,correct operative performance,intermaxillary fixation,application of craniomaxillofacial fixation or craniomentum elastic traction instead of intermaxillary fixation for some special cases are effective methods to correct postoperative malocclusion.

This article was aimed to study the correlation between iron content inCornus officinalis leaves and its yield as well as quality. The method of microwave digestion atomic absorption spectrophotometer was used to determine the content of iron element inCornus officinalis leaves. HPLC was used to determine the content of loganin and ursolic acid in fruits. Correlation analysis was made among the content of iron element, yield of fruits, loganin and ursolic acid in fruits.
