51 cases of osteoporosis were put on clinical trial in our OPD and randomly assigned to TCM treatment group (N = 17), TCM control group and blank group. The total effective rate in the TCM treatment group obtained was 94. 1% and the significantly effective rate achieved 88. 2%. After the treatment, the density of the osseous tissue increased by 3-4%, main symptoms improved markedly, the serum calcium increased and the urine pyridine phenol decreased. All the findings were superior than that in the rest two groups. This composite is effective and safe (no side reactions) and worth put into large sale production.

Objective To explore the factor structure of the anxiety imagery characteristics questionnaire.Methods Through the literature review and expert group discussion,the initial anxiety imagery features questionnaire was created.The first questionnaire contained 49 items of anxiety imagery,which was answered by 106 imagery dialogue psychotherapists.After analysis of the items and exploratory factors,the formal questionnaire that contained 20 items of anxiety imagery characteristics was formed.The formal questionnaire was measured by 115 imagery dialogue psychotherapists,then,exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were made.Results The exploratory factor analysis showed that four factors whose Eigen value were more than 1 were extracted from l0 items,including emotional panic,uneasy,tense muscles,and motor restlessness.Those four factors explained 54.39% of the total variance.Confirmatory analysis showed that x2/df was 2.142 ; root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) was 0.059 ; and comparative fit index (CFI),goodness-of-fit index (GFI),non-normed fit index (NNFI) and RSMEA was 0.912,0.935,0.896,and 0.057,respectively.Conclusions The four-factor structure was constructed by 10 items of anxiety imagery characteristics questionnaire.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of pumping haematoma from vertebrae and skull with CT locating to treat hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.MethodsThe cases were divided into 2 groups:the operation group(89 cases),in which patients were given the approach of pumping haematoma from vertebrae and skull on the basic of internal medical treatment, with the help of head CT locating, and the control group(71 cases),in which the internal medical treatment was used only. ResultsThe survival rate,the death rate,the complications and the nerve function recovery in the operation group after 20 days and 6 months were improved compared with that in the control group(P<0.01).ConclusionThe approach of pumping haematoma from vertebrae and skull is a safe,effective,practical and easy method in treating hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.

Objective To establish spastic cerebral palsy model of macaque by partial resection of motor cortex and explore its evaluation method.Methods Four individuals of 3-month-old macaques were divided into healthy control group and operation model group according to random number table.Partial resection of the motor cortex was carried out in operation model group,in which precentral gyrus cortex from above the right lateral cerebral fissure to the inter-hemicerebral fissure,together with the posterior-superior frontal gyrus (about 0.3 to 0.5 cm in front of the anterior median sulcus) cortex were removed with the depth of about 0.5 to 0.6 cm.After the operation,the continuous camera shooting was used to record whether left limb motor dysfunction and abnormal posture existed or not.Muscle tension was assessed by manual examination of muscle tone with reference to the modified Ashworth scale.The quantitative indexes of the two groups were detected by using the gross motor and fine motor assessment scale.9.4T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to detect the brain imaging changes.Results After operation,the macaque in the operation model group immediately showed left hemiparesis,left upper limb abnormal lifting,left lower limb paralysis,left limb claudication,and eating mainly relied on the right side of the body.After 6 weeks of operation,left limb activity of the operation model group was significantly lower than that of the healthy control group,and the gross motor scores and fine motor scores were significantly lower than those of the healthy control group(Friedman test:χ2=33.939,P<0.05;χ2=37.526,P<0.05).The macaque in the operation model group showed some symptoms that abnormal posture mainly tilted to the left for the rest,sitting in a corner of the monkey cage,left arm was put on the cage to maintain postural balance,and movement was left slightly inclined,which had simulated the typical clinical manifestations of human spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy.Muscle tension was checked by hand,and the left limb paralysis and muscle tension decreased after operation in the model group,and the left muscle tension increased gradually after 5 weeks,and gradually increased to score 4 points and the score remained 3 after 10 weeks.Brain MRI of 3 weeks postoperatively suggested scar tissue formation after right motor cortex resection,which supported the pathological changes of the hemiplegic cerebral palsy models.Conclusions Through the partial resection of the motor cortex,the model of spastic cerebral palsy was established successfully.The results of behavioral evaluation and MRI showed that the model was consis-tent with spastic hemiplegia.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Gegen Qinliantang (GGQLT)-medicated serum on free fatty acid (FFA)-induced nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in vitro model of human hepatoma cells HepG2. MethodNASH model of HepG2 cells was established in vitro, and the cells were intervened with different volume fractions of GGQLT-medicated serum and resveratrol. Intracellular lipid deposition in each group was detected by oil red O staining, the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in each group were detected by flow cytometry, the levels of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), superoxide dismutase (SOD), triglyceride (TG) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in each group were detected by kits. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of nuclear transcription factor (NF)E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), Kelch-like epichlorohydrin-associated protein-1 (Keap1), NF-κB, thioredoxin interacting protein (TXNIP), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in HepG2 cells of each group. The protein expression of Nrf2, TXNIP in cells of each group was detected by Western blot. ResultFFA induced large accumulation of intracellular lipids. Compared with the normal group, the activities of GSH-Px and SOD were significantly decreased (P<0.01) and the contents of TG, ROS and MDA were significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01) in the model group. Compared with the model group, all GGQLT groups and resveratrol group could elevate intracellular SOD activity to different degrees (P<0.05, P<0.01) and significantly reduce the levels of intracellular ROS and MDA (P<0.05, P<0.01), GGQLD high- and medium-dose groups and resveratrol group significantly elevated GSH-Px activity (P<0.01), GGQLD medium- and low-dose groups and resveratrol group significantly decreased TG content (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the model group, GGQLT high- and medium-dose groups and resveratrol group could significantly upregulate the mRNA expression levels of Nrf2, HO-1 and NQO1 (P<0.01), all GGQLT groups and resveratrol group could significantly downregulate the TXNIP protein expression level, as well as significantly downregulate the mRNA expression levels of Keap1, NF-κB (P<0.05, P<0.01). Nrf2-siRNA transfection of cells revealed that Nrf2 expression was significantly downregulated (P<0.01) in the Nrf2-siRNA group of cells by comparing with NC-siRNA group at the corresponding dose of drugs, and the inhibitory effects of GGQLT and resveratrol on TXNIP, IL-1β were attenuated. ConclusionFFA induces the production of ROS and inflammatory factors in HepG2 cells, and GGQLT can improve the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant capacities of cells, and its mechanism may be related to the regulation of Nrf2/TXNIP signaling pathway, so as to improve NASH.
