By digestion with concentration sulfate acid and fuming nitri c acid under refluxing coprecipitation with Fe(OH)3, colorimetry with phenylfluorone-cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTMAB), germanium (Ge) contents of 18 kinds of Chinese medicinal herbs were determined. The Ge contents in Ganoderma lucidum and oldenladia diffusa were higher than those of others (2.46 and 0.35 ?10-8, respectively).In this method, the recoveries of Ge added to various herbs were in the range of 91%~93%. The detection limit and coefficient variation were 198 ng/g and 0.89%, respectively.

Objective To observe the peroxidase body growth activated receptor γ (PPARγ) agonist rosiglitazone on acute pancreatitis in mice with hepatic injury and to investigate the mechanism of hepatic injury .Methods Seventy‐two male Kunming mice were randomly allocated into three groups(24 cases for each group):acute pancreatitis group(AP group) ,rosiglitazone group (AP‐ROS group) ,saline group(NS group) .Mice were killed at 6 ,12 and 24 h after induction of acute pancreatitis .Serum amylase , ALT and AST activities were measured .The expressions of NF‐κB and PPARγmRNA were assessed by RT‐PCR .The expressions of NF‐κB and PPARγ protein were assessed by Western blot .Results Compared with NS group ,serum amylase ,ALT and AST levels at each time point significantly increased in AP group(P< 0 .01);serum amylase ,ALT and AST levels in AP‐ROS group were significantly lower than those in AP group(P<0 .01) .Compared with NS group ,the expressions of liver PPARγ mRNA and protein in AP group were markedly lower at 6 h and 12 h(P<0 .05) ,and the expressions of PPARγmRNA and protein in AP‐ROS group were significantly higher than those in NS group and AP group(P<0 .01) .The expressions of liver NF‐κB mRNA and NF‐κB p65 protein in AP group were significantly higher than those in NS group and AP‐ROS group at all time points(P<0 .01) .Con‐clusion There are clear relationships between NF‐κB and hepatic injury in acute pancreatitis .The expressions of PPARγin injuried hepatic decreased .Rosiglitazone can increase the expressions of PPARγand prevent the expressions of NF‐κB in hepatic during the early phase of acute pancreatitis .

OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of dabigatran etexilate on coagulation indexes and safety of elderly patients with persistent atrial fibrillation. METHODS:52 elderly patients with persistent atrial fibrillation were randomly divided into obser-vation group and control group by random number table,26 cases in each group. Creatinine clearance rate in observation group was higher than 30 ml/min,110 mg Dabigatran etexilate capsule was orally given,bid;when 15-30 ml/min,55 mg capsule was orally given,bid. Control group orally received Warfarin sodium tablet with initial dose of 2.5 mg,qd,according to international normal-ized ratio (INR) after 3-5 days till maintained in 2.0-3.0. After 3 months,coagulation indexes [prothrombin time (PT),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT),thrombin time (TT),INR,platelet count (PLT),fibrinogen (FIB)] before and after treat-ment,incidences of clinical events (cerebral embolism,cerebral hemorrhage,fatal bleeding,the remaining parts of embolism, death)and adverse reactions in 2 groups were compared. RESULTS:There was no significant difference in PT,APTT,TT,PLT and FIB between 2 groups before treatment(P>0.05);after treatment,PT and INR in 2 groups significantly increased,and obser-vation group was obviously better than control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). No cerebral hemorrhage or fatal hemorrhage occurred in the two groups. There was no significant difference in the incidence of cerebral embolism between 2 groups (P>0.05);the incidence of remaining parts of embolism,death in observation group significantly lower than control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in observation group was significant-ly lower than control group,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Dabigatran etexilate shows good coagulation effect on elderly patients with persistent atrial fibrillation,which can effectively improve PT and INR levels and reduce the incidences of clinical events,with good safety.

Objective: This study aimed to discriminate between Eupatorii Herba and its adulterants in order to guarantee the quality and clinical curative effect of this medicinal material. Methods: Genomic DNA extracted from Eupatorii Herba was used as templates. The internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) of nuclear ribosomal DNA was amplified. Sequence assembly and consensus sequence generation were performed by CodonCode Aligner. The intraspecific and interspecific genetic distances of Eupatorii Herba and its adulterants were computed by MEGA5 and the phylogenetic tree was constructed using the neighbor-joining (NJ) method. Results: The length of ITS2 sequence of Eupatorii Herba was 218 bp. The maximum intraspecific genetic distance (K2P distance) of Eupatorii Herba was 0.0092. The minimum interspecific genetic distance of Eupatorii Herba and its adulterants was 0.024. The NJ trees showed that the ITS2 sequence would be used to identify Eupatorii Herba and its adulterants. Con-clusion: ITS2 sequence was able to identify Eupatorii Herba and its adulterants correctly and it provided a new technique to ensure clinical safety in utilization of traditional Chinese medicines.

Objective To observe the early clinical effect of single kidney transplantation from cardiac death pediatric donors to adult recipients. Methods Clinical data of 6 single kidney transplantations from cardiac death pediatric donors in adult recipients in Department of Organ Transplantation ,Guangdong Province No.2 People′s hospital were retrospectively analyzed. the transplant operations were carried out between January 2010 to may 2016.The median age of 6 pediatric donors was 9 years (5 years to 15 years). All recipients had the same blood type. The median age of 12 recipients was 38 years (21 years to 65 years),with 4 man and 8 women. All recipients received kidney transplantation for the first time,and overall reactive antibodies(PRA) were negative,with HLA mismatch between 1to 4. All recipients received single kidney transplantation in right fossa iliaca. Results 12 kidney transplantations were successful. The renal allografts recovered successfully without acute renal rejection , delayed graft function or primary nonfunction. Renal function of 5 of recipients immediately recovered in 5 days,5 recovered in 10 days,and 2 recovered slowly. 1 recipient manifested urine leak and recovered after drainage. 1 case developed delayed incision healing and recovered after dressing at stage II. All patients and renal grafts functions were wellnormal during follow?up period between 1 month to 36 months. Conclusion The early clinical effect of single kidney transplantation from cardiac death pediatric donors to adult recipients is good and could be a promising pathway to expand the organ donor sources.

ObjectiveTo investigate the distribution of thethymidylate synthase (TS) gene polymorphisms inChinese femaleHan-nationality breast cancer patients,including tandemrepeat polymorphisms in the enhancer region ( ER), 6 bp deletion/insertion (del6/ins6) polymorphism in the 3′untranslated region (3′-UTR) and G→C single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). The association of TS gene polymorphism with pathological results was retrospectively analyzed.MethodsThis study included 83 breast cancer patients who received no preoperative chemotherapy. The polymorphisms of TS, ER and TS 3′2UTR were determined by polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method.Results ( 1 ) Of the 83 patients, the frequencies of the TSER 3R/3 R, 2R/3 R and 2R/2R were 68.7％ ,27. 7％ and 3. 6％, respectively; (2) Due to existence of the G→C single nucleotide polymorphism,TSER genotypes were divided into 2R/2R, 2R/3C, 2R/3G, 3G/3G,3C/3C and 3G/3C,their frequencies were 3. 6％, 19. 3％, 8.4％, 19. 3％, 37. 3％ and 12. 1％, respectively; ( 3 ) Of the 83 patients, the frequencies of the TS 3′-UTR ins6/ias6、ins6/del6 and del6/del6 were 8.4％ 、50.6％ and 41.0％, respectively; (4) TSER polymorphisms were correlated with lymph node metastasis ( P = 0.019 ),Ki67 ( P = 0.022 ) and histological grade ( P = 0.042 ). The TS 3′-UTR polymorphisms were correlated with age ( P = 0.002) and histological grade (P = 0.042). G→C SNP were correlated with lymph node metastasis ( P = 0.021 ) and histological grade ( P = 0.028 ).ConclusionsChinese female Han-nationality breast cancer patients have more genotypes frequencies of the TSER 3R/3R and 3′-UTR del6/del6; The TS polymorphisms are correlated with pathological factors of breast cancer.
