Chinese Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology 2017;31(3):231-236
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the anti-vertigo effect of phencynonate hydrochloride. METHODS To detect the improvement of phencynonate hydrochloride on cerebral blood flow, a rat model wa s es?tablished with bilateral common carotid arteries occlusion. Phencynonate hydrochloride 0.1-4.0 mg·kg-1 was ig given, twice a day for three consecutive days and the alteration of cerebral blood flow was measured with laser Doppler flowmetry. Rotating acceleration equipment was used to provocate mouse vertigo for 30 min, and the spontaneous locomotor activities were tested for occurrence of vertigo in mice. Phencynonate hydrochloride 1.4-5.6 mg·kg-1 was ig given before rotating acceleration. Gastric phenol red emptying rate was used to determine the anti-nausea effect of the test drug in mice 30 min after phencynonate hydrochloride 1.4-8.4 mg·kg-1 was ig given. RESULTS The cerebral blood flow of the rat model with bilateral common carotid arteries occlusion was reduced significantly after 24 h (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, phencynonate hydrochloride (0.5, 2.0 and 4.0 mg · kg-1) increased the cerebral blood flow in a dose-dependent manner in rats with cerebral ischemia (P<0.01). The spontaneous locomotor activities were significantly reduced after vertigo stimulation in mice (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, phencynonate hydrochloride (2.8 and 5.6 mg · kg-1) increased the movement distance and speed of vertigo mice (P<0.05). Phencynonate hydrochloride (2.8, 5.6 and 8.4 mg·kg-1) inhibited the gastric emptying of mice (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Phecynonate hydrochloride can improve the cerebral blood flow and locomotor activities in vertigo rats, while inhibiting gastric emptying, which points to the therapeutic potential of phencynonate hydrochloride for vertigo in clinic.

Chinese Journal of Current Advances in General Surgery 1999;0(03):-
Objective: To study the efficiency and prognosis of preoperative transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)treatment in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)after hepatectomy. Methods: The clinical pathological data of 479 patients with resectable HCC from 1998 to 2007 were analyzed retrospectively. Fifty patients had preoperative TACE, 379 cases had not and others were lost of follow up or dead. Clinical pathological data, tumor-free survival rate and overall survival rate after hepatectomy were analyzed. Results: There was a significantly difference in the age and the tumor grade between the groups, other clinical pathological factors were no difference. The preoperative TACE group was younger than non-TACE group (?2=6.228, P=0.012), And had lower tu-mor grade, more tumor necrosis (?2=53.874, P=0.000). The disease tumor-free survival rate and overall survival rate were no difference between the groups (?2=0.736, P=0.391;?2=0.000, P=0. 995). Conclusions: For the unresectable HCC patients by one-stage operation, the preoperative TACE treatment has no adverse effect. However, tumor-free survival rate and overall survival rate are similar to non-TACE group.

Objective: To observe the effect of Kangqianling Granules (Radix Salviae miltiorrhizae,Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, Radix Achyranthis Bidentatae, etc.) on renal function and renal fibrosis in chronic renal faiure(CRF). Methods: Effect of Kangqianling Granules on Serum Creatinine (SCR), Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), Laminin (LN), Fibronectin (FN), Precollagen Ⅲ (PC Ⅲ) and Collagen Ⅳ (C Ⅳ) were observed in CRF patients and rats with 5/6 nephrectomy. The expression of FN and C Ⅳ in remnent renal tissue of model rats were determined by immunhistochemistry. Results: Kangqianling Granules decreased significently serum volume for Scr, BUN, LN, PC Ⅲ, C Ⅳ and elevated FN considerably in CRF patients and rats. Kangqianling Granules inhibited the expressions of FN and C Ⅳ protein in remnant renal tissue of model rats. Conclusion:Kangqianling Granules could relieve renal fibrosis and delay process of CRF.

OBJECTIVE To investigation central venous catheter-related infections(CRI) in critical patients. METHODS Fifty-nine cases from Jul 2006 to Jun 2007 in intensive care unit (ICU) of our hospital were analysed retrospectively. RESULTS Among 59 cases, 27 cases were with positive results of fungi (51.85%) and bacteria(48.15%) in which G+(25.93%) and G-(22.22%). CONCLUSIONS CRI is related to the indwelling time, fungi are the major pathogens. It is important to prevent CRI through careful nursing. We must pull out the catheters if recessary and antibiotics should be used reasonablly.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of Quercetin on kidneys in diabetic rats. Methods STZ induced diabetic rats were given quercetin 100 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 for 8 weeks. Urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) was measured by radioimmunoassay. The changes of creatinine clearance rate (Ccr) and glomerular protein kinase C (PKC) activities were determined. The expression of TGF ? 1 mRNA of renal cortex in diabetic rats were determined by RT PCR analysis. The glomerular changes were also observed morphologically. Results In untreated diabetic rats, Ccr, UAER, kidney weight/body weight and PKC activity in renal glomeruli were significantly increased, the expression of TGF ? 1 mRNA in renal cortex was elevated, and glomerular hypertrophy existed. After Quercetin treatment, Ccr, UAER, PKC activity and the expression of TGF ? 1 mRNA were markedly reduced as compared with those of untreated diabetic rats in 2 and 8 weeks, no significantly abnormal changes in kidney morphology were observed in Quercetin treated group. Conclusion Quercetin ameliorates early diabetic renal hyperdynamic abnormality via inhibiting PKC activity, in which inhibiting of TGF ? 1 production seems to be involved. Reduction of the PKC activity is important in preventing or delaying the development of diabetic nephropathy.
