Objective: To study the mechanism of effect of total flavone of rhizoma drynariae in groups with different dosage on osteoblasts cultured in vitro. Methods: To culture osteoblasts with UMA-106-01 osteoblast strain and to observe the activity of ALP and the endosmosis of 3H-TdR. Results: The total flavone of rhizoma drynariae increased the activity of ALP in cells cultured with UMR-106-01 strain. The ALP activities correspondingly changed in the 24h, 48h and 72h, which related to dosage effect and time effect. Among them, the activity in the 48h is the most ideal one. And the amount of endosmosis of the total flavone of rhizoma drynariae to 3H-TdR increased more remarkably in the 48h than that in the 24h and it also related to the time effect. Conclusion: The total flavone of rhizoma drynariae can promote the differentiation and multiplication of osteoblasts.

Objective To investigate the incidence of infection and the effect of anti-infection prophylaxis in renal transplanted patients after Basiliximab induction therapy. Methods A total of 204patients who have received renal transplantation and Basiliximab induction therapy from January 1,2001 to December 31, 2010 in our hospital have been retrospective analysed in this study. These patients were divided into a prophylaxis group (118 cases) with Ganciclovir + Sulfadiazine +Trimethoprim therapy and a control group (86 cases) without any anti-infection prophylaxis.Furthermore, 440 transplanted patients in the same peroid without any induction therapy were also analysed. They were also devided into two groups: an anti-infection prophylaxis group (206 cases)and a control group (234 cases) without any anti-infection prophylaxis. Results In the prophylaxis group with Basiliximab induction therapy, there were 23 patients (19. 5 %, 23/118)experienced hospitalization due to infection, 3 cases (13. 0 %,3/23) among them were severe infection, and 3patients (13.0 %, 3/23) died from vital infection. In the non-prophylaxis control group with Basiliximab induction therapy, 27 patients (31.4 %, 27/86) had infection complication, 7 patients (25.9 % ,7/27) among them were severe infection, and 4 patients(14. 8 % ,4/27)died. The incidence of infection between the above two groups is significantly different (P<0. 05). In the prophylaxis group without induction therapy, the incidence of infection was 15.0 % (31/206), there were no severe infection cases but 7 patients (22. 6 %, 7/31) died from infection. In the non-prophylaxis control group without induction therapy, the incidence of infection was 12. 8 % (30/234), 3 cases among them were severe infection(10. 0 %,3/30)and 5 patients died from infection (16. 7 %, 5/30).The incidence of infection in Basiliximab induced patients without anti-infection prophylaxis is significantly higher than that in patients without induction therapy and anti-infection prophylaxis (31.4 % vs. 12.8 %,P<0.01). Conclusion Basiliximab induction therapy increased the risk of infection, but not the rate of mortality. It is necessary to give anti-infection prophylaxis in renal transplanted patients with Basiliximab induction therapy.

Objective:To investigate the expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), procalcitonin (PCT), soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (sTREM-1) and soluble cell differentiation 14 (sCD14) in pregnant women with premature rupture of membranes (PROM) and their predictive value for chorioamnionitis.Methods:A total of 132 pregnant women with PROM who received treatment in Tengzhou Central People's Hospital from January 2016 to June 2017 were included in the study group. These women were assigned to pre-term PROM group (gestational age < 37 weeks, n = 58) and full-term PROM group (gestational age > 37 weeks, n = 74). A total of 106 concurrent full-term healthy pregnant women were included in the control group. Pregnant women in the PROM group were also assigned into an infection group ( n = 51) and a non-infection group ( n = 81). Serum levels of MMP-9, PCT, sTREM-1 and sCD14 were compared between study and control groups, and their value in the diagnosis of PROM complicated with chorioamnionitis was analyzed. Results:The expression levels of MMP-9 [(271.42 ± 34.16) ng/L], PCT [(54.57 ± 8.16) pg/mL], sTREM-1 [(0.51 ± 0.11) ng/mL] and sCD14 [(60.23 ± 9.49) ng/mL] in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group [(54.97 ± 10.08) ng/L, (26.04 ± 1.98) pg/mL, (0.19 ± 0.04) ng/mL, (42.04 ± 10.33) ng/mL, t = 27.064, 13.767, 14.831, -13.342, all P < 0.01). The expression levels of MMP-9 [(314.05 ± 45.37) ng/L], PCT [(0.61 ± 0.18) ng/mL], sTREM-1 [(63.12 ± 10.12) pg/mL] and sCD14 [(68.07 ± 11.05) ng/mL] in the pre-term PROM group were significantly higher than those in the full-term PROM group [(238.01 ± 40.45) ng/L, (47.87 ± 8.90) pg/mL, (0.43 ± 0.14) ng/mL, (54.09 ± 10.33) ng/mL, t = 9.103, 8.862, -10.538, 6.494, all P < 0.05). The expression levels of MMP-9 [(343.74 ± 43.74) ng/L], PCT [(69.88 ± 8.83) pg/mL], sTREM-1 [(0.67 ± 0.16) ng/mL], sCD14 [(70.41 ± 8.89) ng/mL] in the infection group were significantly higher than those in the non-infection group [(230.09 ± 49.82) ng/L, (45.82 ± 11.04) pg/mL, (0.42 ± 0.19) ng/mL and (54.41 ± 12.42) ng/mL, t = 23.655, 12.014, 9.382, 11.306, all P < 0.01]. The sensitivity (94.23%), specificity (93.75%), positive predictive value (92.45%) and negative predictive value (96.20%) of combined detection of these indexes in the diagnosis of PROM complicated by chorioamnionitis were significantly higher than those of other indexes detected alone (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Combined detection of serum levels of MMP-9, PCT, sTREM-1 and sCD14 can be used as an effective auxiliary index for the diagnosis of early premature rupture of membranes complicated with chorioamnionitis.
