Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 1987;0(03):-
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmunity disease, and many effect factors contribute to the pathogenesis process of RA. Prostaglandin E_2(PGE_2) is one major inflammatory mediator. In this article ,we review the synthesis,metabolism and action pathway of PGE_2, the interaction between PGE_2 and inflammatory cellular factors of RA, and the therapeutic effect of drugs on RA.

Objective To investigate the association between diet during pregnancy and hypertensive dis-order complicating pregnancy ( HDCP ) , so as to provide a theoretical basis guiding appropriate diet during pregnancy.Methods Using 1∶2 matched case-control study method, we selected pregnant women delivered in Anhui Women and Child Health Care Hospital from January to December 2014, and interviewed them with food frequency questionnaire.The relationship between intake frequency of various food and HDCP was analyzed. Results A total of 543 women were included in this study, including 181 cases and 362 controls.Mann-Whit-ney U test results showed that the frequencies of meat and fish, eggs, beans, nuts, milk, and pickled food con-sumption were significantly different between the cases and the controls (all P<0.05);while the differences in cereals, vegetables, and fruits consumption frequency between cases and controls were not statistically signifi-cant (all P>0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that higher intake frequencies of beans (OR=0.746, 95%CI:0.645-0.862), eggs (OR=0.789, 95%CI:0.693-0.898), and milk (OR=0.822, 95% CI:0.725-0.931) were associated with lower risk of HDCP; in contrast, higher intake fre-quency of pickled food was associated with higher risk of HDCP (OR=1.190, 95% CI:1.054-1.344). Conclusions Beans, eggs, and milk may be protective factors for HDCP, while pickled food may be risk fac-tor of HDCP.Diet during pregnancy should be appropriate and following scientific guidelines.

Objective To assess the efficacy of clinical intervention of early swallowing syndrome on neonates. Methods Eighty-six cases of normal newborns were enrolled in the study, including 44 cases of natural delivery,32 cases of cesarean section,8 cases of premature infant. The cases started vomitting before feeding the milk, became more severe after feeding the milk. once the pathological factors were excluded, the cases were treated with breastfeeding, warm water enema, massaging the lower abdomen, 1% sodium bicarbonate solution to the gastric lavage. Results A variety of clinical interventions on the control of neonatal swallowing syndrome results are obvious. Conclusions Early detection early intervention can prevent complications occurring.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis under hysteroscopy for uterine malformation,especially in maiden. Methods Hysteroscopy combined with ultrasonography was used to determine the types of uterine malformation in 24 cases. Results Definitive diagnosis indicated 8 cases of uterus bicornis,10 cases of uterus septus with single uterine neck,2 cases of uterus septus with double uterine neck and single uterine body,and 4 cases of puberal rudimentary horn of uterus.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of sertraline on cytokine balance in patients with depression. METHODS: Serum levels of interleukin2(IL-2), interleukin12(IL-12), interleukin4(IL-4), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-?) and transforming growth factor beta (TGF-?1) were measured in 26 patients with depression(depression group) before and after treatment and 28 healthy volunteers (control group) by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS: As compared with control group, in depression group the serum levels of IL-2, IL-12, TNF-? were significantly higher than in control group; the serum levels of IL-4, TGF-?1 were significantly lower than in control group(P

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the efficacy and safety of the generic and original preparation of atorvas-tatin,and provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS:Retrieved from PubMed,EMBase,Cochrane Li-brary,CJFD,Wanfang Database,VIP and CBM,related randomized controlled trials(RCT)about generic preparation of atorvas-tatin(test group)versus original preparation of atorvastatin(control group)were collected. Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.3 software after data extract and quality evaluation. RESULTS:Totally 16 RCTs were included,involving 2 077 pa-tients. Results of Meta-analysis showed,compared with control group,there were no significant differences in reducing total choles-terol (TC) [MD=-0.06,95%CI(-0.14,0.01),P=0.11],triglyceride (TG) [MD=-0.00,95%CI(-0.08,0.08),P=0.99], low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) [MD=-0.07,95%CI(-0.16,0.01),P=0.09],increasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)[MD=-0.00,95% CI(-0.03,0.03),P=0.96] and the incidence of major adverse cardiac events(MACE) [OR=1.18,95%CI(0.71,1.97),P=0.52] in test group;in terms of safety,compared with control group,there were no significant differences in the resulting in alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increased [OR=1.08,95%CI(0.51,2.30),P=0.83],the incidences of myalgia [OR=2.46,95%CI(0.70,8.65),P=0.16] and gastrointestinal adverse reactions [OR=1.11,95%CI(0.64,1.95),P=0.71]. CONCLUSIONS:Both the generic and original preparation of atorvastatin can effectively reduce blood lipid levels,with sim-ilar safety.

Objective To explore the effect of the improved abdominal rotation card method in insulin injection. Methods A total of 100 hospitalized diabetes patients were randomly divided into control group (n=50) and observational group (n=50) according to the random number method. In the control group, insulin was injected to the subcutaneous tissue of abdomen with traditional method annular rotating method. Insulin was injected using improved abdominal rotation card method in the observational group. Compare accuracy and mastery rate of injection site rotation between the two groups. Compare fasting blood glucose (FBG), postprandial 2H blood glucose (PBG), HbA1c, the incidence of hypoglycemia and endermic induration between the two groups after three months. Results The nurses in the observation group had higher accuracy rate of the injection site rotation compared to the control group [98.6%(690/700) vs. 38.6%(270/700),χ2=584.66, P<0.01]. Mastery rate of the injection site rotation for the patients in the observation group were significantly higher than the control group [70.0% (35/50) vs. 20.0% (10/50), χ2=25.74, P < 0.01]. The incidence of endermic induration were significantly lower in observation group compared to the control group [2.0% (1/50) vs.16.0% (8/50), χ2=5.98, P < 0.01]. The incidence of hypoglycemia were significantly lower in observation group compared to the control group [4.0%(2/50) vs. 16.0%(8/50),χ2=4.00, P<0.01]. Conclusions The new abdominal rotation method in insulin injection can be a safe and effective therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes.
