To elucidate the mechanism of Pai Pei Tang in combination with mifepristone in termination of early pregnancy, samples of apoblema (5 each) were collected from the Pai Pei Tang group, mifepristone group, Pai Pei Tang and mifepristone group (N = 68) and routine artificial abortion group (N = 22). We found that atrophy of the decidua and chorion was the utmost in the Pai Pei Tang and mifepristone group under the electron microscope. The result suggested that Pai Pei Tang could induce degenerative and atrophic changes in the decidua and affect the chorion directly.

AIM: To study the curative effect for patients with age related cataract and shallow anterior chamber after phacoemulsification.METHODS: Totally 38 patients (38 eyes) with age related cataract and shallow anterior chamber were selected and divided into two groups according to the depth of the anterior chamber, as mild shallow anterior chamber group (2-2.5mm) 23 eyes, high risk shallow anterior chamber group (<2.0mm) 15 eyes.Thirty-eight patients (38 eyes) with age related cataract with normal anterior chamber were as control group at the same period.All the patients received the operations by the same doctor and were followed up for 3mo.The observed items included visual acuity before and after operations, intraocular pressure, anterior chamber depth, corneal endothelial cell density and complications.RESULTS: There were no significant difference on visual acuity, intraocular pressure and corneal endothelial cell density between the two groups before operations (P>0.05).The visual acuity improved significantly after operation in both groups (P<0.05).Intraocular pressure after operation decreased significantly in both groups (P<0.05).Anterior chamber depth increased significantly after operation in both groups (P<0.05).Corneal endothelial cell density decreased significantly in both groups (P<0.05).There were no significant difference on anterior chamber depth, intraocular pressure and corneal endothelial cell density between the two groups at different time point after operations (P>0.05).Posterior capsular rupture occurred in shallow anterior chamber group in 1 eye, suspensory ligament rupture in 1 eye.Posterior capsular rupture and suspensory ligament rupture occurred none in normal anterior chamber group.Postoperative corneal edema occurred in 10 eyes (26%) in shallow anterior chamber group, which occurred in 3 eyes (8%) in normal anterior chamber group.The difference on the incidence was significant (P <0.05).CONCLUSION: Phacoemulsification should be taken timely for patients with age related cataract and shallow anterior chamber.The postoperative visual acuity can be improved and the anterior chamber depth can increase.The operation is safe and effective for those patients.

Objective To observe the expression of resistin mRNA and protein in adipose tissues of obese rats,and to explore the correlations between resistin and obesity,insulin resistance.Methods Thirty SD rats were divided into control group(n=15) and high-fat diet group(n=15).The rats in control group recieved common forage.The obese and insulin resistance models were induced with high-fat diet in SD rats.The plasma insulin level was determined by double antibody radioinimunity analysis,and automatic biochemistry analyzer in plement was used to detect the plasma free fatty acid.After 11 weeks,glucose tolerance test was carried out to determine blood glucose levels at intervals(0,30,60,90,120 min).Resistin mRNA from fat pads tissue was extracted by RT-PCR,and then its protein was detected by Western blot.The data were analyzed statistically by SPSS 11.5 software.Results After 11 weeks,the rats′ weight in high-fat diet group increased obviously than that of control group,as well as fasting blood glucose,free fat acid homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMAIR) and the glucose tolerance in high-fat diet group reduced greatly.The resistin mRNA and protein in white adipose tissues were significantly higher in the obese mice than those of control group(Pa

Objective To explore the psychomotor development in 12 month old infants born after in vitro fertilization with a control group of infants concieved naturally.Methods A matched control study was performed on psychomotor development of 12-month-old infants concieved with use of assisted reproductive technology(in vitro fertilization only).The control group was matched according to maternal age,parity,social class and level of parental education.The suitable mothers were invited to participate at the 28th week of gestation and were followed up to delivery.The infants of the two groups were followed up to 12 months old and a formal developmental assessment was done with the Children Development Center of China(CDCC) scales of infant development.Results The incidences of preterm birth,low birth weight and twin pregnancy were significantly higher in the assisted conception group.No statistically significant difference was found in the mental development index and psychomotor development index between assisted conception and control groups.Conclusions The levels of psychomotor development in 12 months old infants born after in vitro fertilization are normal.But as the incidences of preterm birth,low birth weight and multifetation are significantly higher in vitro fertilization group,it need to follow up the ongoing development of these children.

To analyze the prescription and medication regularities of traditional Chinese medicines in the treatment of melancholia in the Chinese journal full text database (CNKI), Wanfang Data knowledge service platform, VIP, Chinese biomedical literature database (CBM) in based on the traditional Chinese medicine inheritance support platform software, in order to provide reference for further mining traditional Chinese medicines for the treatment of melancholia and new drug development. The traditional Chinese medicine inheritance support platform software V2.0 was used to establish the prescription database of traditional Chinese medicines for treating melancholia. The software integrated data mining method was adopted to analyze four Qis, five flavors, meridian distribution, frequency statistics, syndrome distribution, composition regularity and new prescriptions. Totally 358 prescriptions for treating melancholia were analyzed to determine the frequency of prescription drugs, commonly used drug pairs and combinations and develop 22 new prescriptions. According to this study, prescriptions for treating depression collected in modern literature databases mainly have the effects in soothing liver and resolving melancholia, strengthening spleen and eliminating phlegm, activating and replenishing blood, regulating liver qi, tonifying spleen qi, clearing heat and purging heat, soothing the mind, nourishing yin and tonifying kidney, with neutral drug property and sweet or bitter flavor, and follow the melancholia treatment principle of "regulating qi and opening the mind, regulating qi and empathy".

Objective To investigate the relationship between the apoptosis,expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax protein in perihematomal brain regions of rats and neurologic dysfunctions after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Methods Seventy Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into two groups:an experimental group and a control group.A model of ICH was established by injection of 0.5 U bacterial collagenaseⅦinto the caudate nucleus in the rats.Neurological impairment was evaluated at 6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h,7 d and 14 d after 1CH,respectively, before the rats were sacrificed.TUNEL method was used to detect apoptosis,and SP method to detect expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax protein in the perihematomal brain tissues.Results Neurological impairment occurred in all the rats after ICH,and peaked at 48 h after ICH.The apoptosis and expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax protein were peaked at 48 h,6 h and 48 h after ICH,respectively.Conclusion The degree of the neurological impairment after ICH is parallel to that of the apoptosis.Apoptosis may play an important role in neurological impairment after ICH.
