The ghrelin is an endogenous ligand of the growth hormone (GH) secretagogue receptor,which can regulate the secretion of GH,stimulate the appetite,adjust the energy metabolism,and improve the cardiovascular function.Children with congenital heart disease (CHD) usually suffered from malnutrition and growth retardation,which were connected with insufficiency of energy intake,poor absorption,and increase of nutritional requirement,anatomy and the changes of hemodynamics.Many infants with CHD gradually present ventricular dysfunction and growth restriction in their early childhood,which consequently lead to severe complications.Ghrelin is valuable in the early detection of potential CHD,plays an important role in improving the state of malnutrition and protecting the cardiac function,and provides an important reference to explore the new drug therapy for CHD.This review summarized the effects and significances of ghrelin on growth and cardiac function in infants with CHD.

Objective] To study the transmission of the Ishinpo versions ,understand the prevailing version of Ishinpo. [Method] With the research methods of the Chinese traditional history and philology,collect and sort historical cited references of the Ishinpo, by paying attention to three main emendation in the transmission history of Ishinpo. [Result] Ishinpo of Nakarai is the golden version for document research. The prevailing Ansei Ishinpo version of contemporary China is based on Nakarai version,which consists of twenty seven scrolls of Hei era and three scrolls of Edo Era. Ishinpo Versions have been divided into Emperor Nakarai versions,Uji versions and Family tradition versions. There are big differences in utilization and completeness of the three version system. The Emperor Nakarai versions are relatively good, of which the Nakarai version preserves best. The Uji versions are widespread, of which the RenHe Temple version is better preserved but lacuna. There are lots of lacunas in the family tradition versions, owing to circulateed copies. [Conclusion] In the three main emendation, of Ishinpo, mostly, the Nakarai version is the source edition, the Uji version is primary edition, and the family tradition version is the secondary edition. The paper, which is useful in the transmission of the Ishinpo and thus historical process of medical exchange between China and Japan, has established the system of Ishinpo versions, defined the golden version and the prevailing version.

Objective The purposes of the present study are to investigate the effects and mechanisms of Bu Shen Ning Xin Yi Jing Pill on premature ovarian failure (POF) through a clinical study. Methods Sixty women with POF were administered and randomized into the treatment group and the control group. Every group had thirty cases. Patients in the treatment and control groups were requested to have the Bu Shen Ning Xin Yi Jing Pill and the Liu Wei Di Huang Pill, respectively. Six-month duration was considered as a therapeutic course. The serum levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and estradiol (E2) were determined by the chemistry luminescence method. Differences between the treatment and control groups were investigated.Results Improved menstruation were revealed in both groups and the treatment group showed significant improvement than the control group (P<0.01). In the treatment group, serum FSH levels sharply dropped after treatment, while the serum E2 levels significantly elevated compared with those of prior-treatment (P<0.01) . The total effective rate in the treatment group was 70% (21 cases), whereas 40% in the control group (12 cases). The difference had statistical significance (P<0.01) .Conclusion The BuShen NingXin YiJing Pill is effective in the treatment of premature ovarian failure via significant improvements in the clinical symptoms and balance of the endocrine hormones.

Objective To observe the effects of ganglioside and piracetam in improving the neurological function in patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.Methods Ninety-six patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage Were randomly divided into 2 groups,ganglioside group(48 patients)and piracetam group(48 patients).Ganglioside group used the amount 40mg ganglioside mixed with sodium chloride injection(100ml,concentration 0.9%),and the piracetam group uesd piracetam(20g)mixed with the same injection.Both the patients of the 2 groups were given intravenous drip once a day,then after continuous 3 weeks,the general information and the improvement of nerve were observed.Results The effective rate and excellent rate of ganglioside group were remarkably higher than piracetam group,there was significant difference between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ganglioside was better than pimcetam in improving clinical symptoms and the neurological deficit of the patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.

Plasma levels of homocysteine (Hcy),folic acid (FA) and Vitamin B12 (VB12) were measured in 120 patients of colon adenomatous polyps and 40 healthy subjects.Plasma Hcy levels in colon adenomatous polyps patients were significantly higher than those in controls[(14.24 ± 0.52) μmol/L vs.(10.93 ± 0.81) μmol/L,P =0.0014)],while plasma FA levels in polyps patients were lower than those in controls [(6.26 ± 0.27) μg/L vs.(10.74 ± 0.85) μg/L,P ＜ 0.0001].There was no difference in plasma VB12 levels between two groups(P =0.7100).The plasma Hcy levels in patients with multiple colon polyps were higher than those with single colon polyps (P =0.0092),while the plasma FA levels demonstrated contrary results (P =0.0047).With the pathological type progression,the plasma Hcy levels were gradually raised,and FA levels gradually decreased.Plasma levels of FA,Hcy and VB12 were not correlated with the location and distribution of polyps.These results suggest that plasma FA and Hcy levels may be related to disease progress in patients with colon adenomatous polyps.

Results After 7 days treatment, we found compared with control group, the speed of decline of serum bilirubin of treatment group was much faster, the degree of decline was much bigger and the average time of jaundice subside was much shorter, all P<0.05.The total efifciency of treatment group was 98.33%which was signiifcantly higher than the control group which was 91.67%, P<0.05.Conclusion Compared with conventional treatment methods, blue-ray combined with Yinzhihuang Keli for neonatal jaundice would get a better efifcacy, faster speed of jaundice subside and smaller side effects.

Objective To explore the changes of T-lymphocyte subsets,D-Dimer and immunoglobulin in mycoplasma pneumonia children and its significance.Methods The levels of T lymphocyte subsets (CD3 +、CD4 +、CD8 +、CD4 +/CD8 +)in 50 children with mycoplasma pneumonia (MPP Group)and 50 healthy children were detected by flow cytometry;The levels of D-Dimer were detected by immunoturbidimetry;The levels of serum immunoglobulin were detected by immune turbidimetric method.Results The results of T lymphocyte subsets:Compared with normal control group, CD3 +and CD4 +peripheral blood cells in MPP group were significantly declined(P<0.001)、CD8 +cells were increased slightly,but with no significant difference、CD4 +/CD8 +ratios were decreased slightly.The results of D-Dimer:Compared with normal control group,the levels of D-Dimer in MPP group were significantly escalated(P<0.001).The results of immunoglobulin:IgA and IgMin MPP group were both significantly higher than those of normal group,but IgG was not different from that in normal group.Conclusion Children with mycoplasma pneumonia have immune disorder,which may generate abnormal clotting.Therefore,besides the conventional anti-mycoplasma pneumonia treatment,we need to detect the levels of D-Dimer according to the clinical symptoms and disease progression and strength the regulation and treatment of the immune system.

Objective To study the T Lymphocyte Subsets and the cytokines in the newborns with infectious diseases. Methods Twenty cases of neonatal bacterial pneumonia (bacterial group), 15 cases of rotavirus enteritis (virus group) and 20 newborns with jaundice (control group) were recruited in this study. The peripheral CD4+T Cells and lymphocyte subsets were assessed by flow cytometry. Results The IL-4 level was significantly different among different groups (F=3.39, P=0.041). The levels of IL-17 and IFN-γdid not differ signiifcantly among different groups (F=0.28 and 1.24 respectively, P>0.05). The IL-4 level was higher in bacterial group than that in virus group and control group (P<0.05). The percentages of CD3+, CD4+, CD19+and NK cells and the ratio of CD4+/CD8+ had significant difference among different groups (F=3.30-26.69, P<0.05). The percentages of CD3+and CD4+cells and the ratio of CD4+/CD8+were lower in bacterial group and virus group than those in control group (P<0.05). The percentage of CD19+cells was higher in bacterial group and virus group than that in control group (P<0.05). The percentage of NK cells was lower in virus group than that in bacterial group and control group (P<0.05). Conclusions The pattern of cytokines level is different in newborns with infection caused by different pathogens. Newborns with infectious diseases have immune dysfunction and Th2-dominated imbalance. The low percentages of T lymphocyte subsets indicate the depressed cellular immunity after infection, which may result in atypical symptom and prolonged disease course.
