Objective To study the safety of tilt table test (TTT) in elderly patients. Methods Among the 785 subjects examined for TTT, 110 were elders with an average age of( 65?4) years, ranging from 60 to 82. Out of the 110 elder subjects, 39 syncope patients were due to unknown reasons, 13 due to heart or brain diseases and 58 were non syncope subjects. We conducted base tilt table test (BTTT) in all patients and additional isoproterenol tilt table test (ITTT) in 18 patients. The BTTT protocol included 60～80 degrees upright tilt for 25 minutes and the ITTT protocol included isoproterenol infusion at 2-4 ?g/min for 10 minutes. Results 13 out of 39 patients with unknown reasons had a positive BTTT and 6 out of 10 patients had a positive ITTT, respectively; Among the 31 out of 110 positive TTT patients, 17 (54.8%) showed a vasodepressor response, 4 (12.9%) a cardioinhibitory response and 10 (32.3%) mixed response. Serious abnormal responses were not observed. Conclusions (1) TTT is a safe and effective method for diagnosing the vasovagal syncope (VVS) in elderly patients; (2) Because of its safety, BTTT could be chosen for identifying the VVS in the elderly heart or brain disease patients complicated with syncope.

Objective To explore the interventional effect of two different methods in the prevention of chemotherapy phlebitis caused by 5-fluorouracil.Methods Eighty cases of patients treated with cisplatin+5-fluorouracil (PF) chemotherapy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from May 2015 to July 2016 were selected and divided into the observation group and control group according to admission time,40 cases in each group.The observation group was smeared with 2% anisodamine along the direction of vein puncture after peripheral venous puncture success,while the control group was smeared with mucopolysaccharide polysulphate emulsion paste.The occurrence of phlebitis and degree of local pain after intervention were compared between the two groups.The blood biochemical indexes and inflammatory factors levels before and after intervention were compared too.Results After the intervention,the distribution of phlebitis level and local pain degree had statistical difference between the two groups (Z=2.57,2.53;P=0.01);the observation group was superior to the control group in the aspects of phlebitis lesion degree and local pain alleviation;WBC,MPV and PDW in the observation group had statistical difference between before and after intervention;WBC,PLT and PCT in the control group had statistical difference between before and after intervention (P<0.05);PLT count was positively correlated with PCT in the two groups (r=0.952,P<0.05);the CRP level and WBC count after intervention had no statistical difference between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion 2% anisodamine can effectively prevent and alleviate the occurrence of 5-FU caused chemotherapy phlebitis and local pain.At the same time,PLT can provide a basis for preventing chemotherapy phlebitis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between the color， odor and volatile components of Paeoniae Radix Alba（PRA） and its processed products， and to examine the effects of different processing methods on the odor and color formation of PRA. MethodThe odor and chromaticity information of PRA， honey chaff-fried PRA and honey bran-fried PRA were identified by electronic nose and colorimeter， and the volatile components in the different processed products of PRA were identified and relatively quantified by headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（HS-GC-MS）， and analyzed using principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA）， then the differential key flavor components among the three were screened according to the principles of variable importance in the projection（VIP） value>1 and relative odor activity value（ROAV）≥1. Pearson correlation analysis was used to investigate the association between the differential flavor components and the colorimetric values and electronic nose sensors， respectively. ResultAfter being fried with honey chaff and honey bran， the lightness value（L^*） of PRA decreased， and red-green value（a^*） and yellow-blue value（b^*） increased significantly（P<0.05， P<0.01）. The odor differences were mainly reflected in the S1， S2， S4， S5， S6， S8 and S11 sensors， and the results of PCA of the electronic nose indicated that the odor differences among PRA， honey chaff-fried PRA and honey bran-fried PRA were obvious， among which the overall odor intensity of honey bran-fried PRA was higher than that of honey chaff-fried PRA. A total of 47 volatile components were identified from PRA and its processed products， including 21 for PRA， 36 for honey chaff-fried PRA， and 37 for honey bran-fried PRA. Odor analysis revealed that 12， 24 and 22 volatile components may be the key flavor components in PRA， honey chaff-fried PRA and honey bran-fried PRA， respectively. Correlation analysis showed that the L^* of the decoction pieces was negatively correlated with the content of the Maillard reaction products， the a^* and b^* were positively correlated with the content of the Maillard reaction products， the S1 and S8 sensors were negatively correlated with the content of the Maillard reaction products， and the S2， S4， S5， S6 and S11 sensors were positively correlated with the Maillard reaction products. ConclusionThe color of PRA is deepened after being stir-fried with honey chaff and honey bran， and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural， furfural and other components are generated at the same time， which is in line with the theory of burning aroma strengthens the spleen of stir-fried with honey chaff and honey bran. Honey bran-fried PRA has a stronger Maillard reaction than honey chaff-fried PRA， which makes honey bran-fried PRA with a burnt flavor and a dark yellow color， while honey chaff-fried PRA has a sweet flavor and a bright yellow color.

ObjectiveBy comparing the composition and content of volatile components in raw products， wine-washed products and wine-fried products of Ligusticum sinense cv. Chaxiong rhizome（LSCR）， to investigate the influence of wine processing on the volatile components of LSCR， in order to provide a basis for the development of quality standards for LSCR and its processed products. MethodsElectronic nose was used to identify the odors of LSCR， wine-washed and wine-fried LSCR， and their volatile components were detected by headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（HS-GC-MS）， and the relative mass fractions of these components were determined by peak area normalization method. Principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA） were performed on the obtained sample data by SIMCA 14.1 software， and the differential components of LSCR， wine-washed and wine-fried LSCR were screened according to the variable importance in the projection（VIP） value>1. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between volatile differential flavor components and electronic nose sensors. ResultsElectronic nose detection results showed that there were significant differences in the odors of LSCR， wine-washed and wine-fried LSCR， mainly reflected in the sensors S2， S4， S5， S6， S11， S12， S13. And a total of 62 compounds were identified from LSCR and its wine-processed products， among which 46， 50 and 51 compounds were identified from LSCR， wine-fried and wine-washed LSCR， respectively. There were 21 differential components between the raw products and wine-fried products， of which 10 components were increased and 11 were decreased after processing. There were 20 differential components between the raw products and wine-washed products， of which 11 constituents increased and 9 decreased after processing. There were 17 differential components between the wine-wash products and wine-fried products. Compared with the wine-washed products， the contents of 13 components in the wine-fried products increased， and the contents of 4 components decreased. The increasing trend of the content of phthalides in the wine-washed products was more obvious than that in the wine-fried products， but the content of total volatile components was higher in the wine-fried products than the wine-washed products. Correlation analysis showed that there were different degrees of correlation between the 7 differential sensors of electronic nose and 24 differential volatile components， mainly phthalides and olefins. ConclusionThe odor and the content of volatile components in LSCR changed obviously after wine processing， and n-butylphthalide， Z-butylidenephthalide and E-ligustilide can be used as the candidate differential markers of volatile components in LSCR before and after wine processing.
