As an indispensable part of minority traditional medicine, mineral medicine has used with less dosage and reliable efficacy for the last thousand years. Based on the unearthed relics and medical literatures of past dynasties, the history of Han nationality ap- years, which had been recorded in main literature. But there is less comprehensive report of its usage in the other 55-minority nationality. This article was based on the analysis of ethnic minority literature of thousands of years, and conducted a comprehensive collation and analysis of mineral medicine. It was mostly determined that there was 20 minority groups using mineral medicine, with a total of 163 species (limited our references), and the most used is the Tibetan, accounting for 141. The most serious problems of mineral medicine are that species should be further investigated and researched, and then become the legal commercial medicine, and the classification principles of mineral medicine should be established. Through the traditional processing and experimental studies, the problems of attenuation and detoxification should be solved.

A 36-year-old female presented with multiple dark brown papules on the chest and abdomen for more than 10 years,which had gradually increased in number.Physical examination revealed dozens of dark brown,flat papules measuring 1-3 mm in diameter in the chest and abdomen.Most of the lesions had a smooth surface,and some lesions gave a papilloma-like appearance,with no confluent trend.Biopsy of abdominal lesions showed mild hyperkeratosis of epidermis,acanthosis,extension of epidermal protrusions forming a reticulated appearance,horn pseudocysts in prickle cell layer,enhanced pigmentation of basal layer,and a sparse lymphocytic perivascular infiltrate in superficial dermis.A diagnosis of dermatosis papulosa nigra (DPN) was made.

Objective The research was to achieve Shanghai resident satisfaction of primary health service after new health reform.Methods During self-compiled questionnaire survey,the research adapted stratified random sampling to select 9 community health centers in Shanghai urban,rural and suburb areas.Results Shanghai resident satisfaction rate of new health reform was 85.2％.Satisfaction rate of basic medical security system was 85.0％.Satisfaction rate of basic medical service was 96.5％.Satisfaction rate of basic public health service was 95.1％.Age,region,job,education and income were main factors to satisfaction of primary health service.Conclusion From an overall point of view,Shanghai resident satisfaction of primary health service after new health reform was high.However,the level of basic medical security and convenience of reimbursement were not high.Medical expenses of primary health care institution had not been effectively controlled.Basic medicine could not fully meet the medication needs of primary health care institutions.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine(HCQ) in pregnant patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Methods Twenty-four pregnant patients with SLE treated with HCQ during pregnancy from May,2006 to February,2011 were studied retrospectively.All babies were followed up during early infancy for growth development.ResultsOf them,22 patients were treated with HCQ throughout the whole pregnancy with no lupus flare occurred in 21 patients (95.4％),while temporary discontinuation of HCQ precipitated a flare of disease in two patients.Three patients ( 12.5％ ) had premature delivery,and pregnancy induced hypertension happened in 3 patients (12.5％ ).No congenital abnormalities occurred and mean follow-up of 26 months ( range 1 - 47 months) revealed no abnormalities in these children.Conclusion Our findings reinforce the safety of HCQ therapy during pregancy and HCQ should probably be maintained throughout the pregancy in patients with SLE.

Aim: To prepare the influenza vaccine lyophilized liposomes and to characterize its particle distribution, encapsulation efficiency and immunogenicity. Methods: Flu vaccine liposome based on the method of thin-film evaporation was prepared using phospholipids , cholesterol and the purified influenza virus split vaccine, and was further subjected to frozen-drying. The polymorph was observed by microscope; the particle distribution and the average size were analysed by transmission electron microscope; its encapsulation efficiency was determined by Lowry method and the antibody titers were assessed by hemagglutination-inhibition after pulmonary delivery to mice. Results: The reconstitated influenza vaccine liposome under electronic microscope were round or elliptic particles evenly distributed at a mean size of 2. 14 祄, with the encapsulation efficiency of more than 80%. The antibody titer through pulmonary delivery was higher than that through intraperitoneal injection. Conclusion: The prepared influenza vaccine lyophilized liposomes possess high encapsulation efficiency, better particle distribution and marked immunogenicity through pulmonary delivery to mice. Pulmonary delivery of influenza vaccine liposomes is a potential immunization approach worthy of further exploitation.

Objective To study the incidence of low triiodothyronine (T3) syndrome in critical patients,and compare the prognosis evaluation value between low T3 syndrome and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) Ⅱ score.Methods A total of 160 critical patients were enrolled.APACHE Ⅱ score of patients were recorded at admission,and thyroid hormone levels were measured on the first and the third day after admission.The patients who were low T3 level were enrolled into observation group,and the patients who were normal T3 level were as control group.The patients were followed up for 28 d,then were divided into death group and survival group according to the prognosis.The prognosis evaluation value was compared between T3 and APACHE Ⅱ score by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results The incidence rate of low T3 syndrome was 25.6％ (41/160).During the follow-up phase,the fatality rate in observation group was 41.5％(17/41),and in control group was 29.4％ (35/119),there was statistical difference (P ＜ 0.05).The ROC area under curve of T3 was 0.657 (95％ CI:0.712-0.846),APACHE Ⅱ score was 0.672 (95％ CI:0.721-0.857),and there was no statistical difference (P ＞ 0.05).Best cut-off value of T3 was 0.41 μ g/L resulting in 76.9％(40/52) sensitivity and 78.7％(85/108) specificity.Conclusion Critical patients complicated with low T3 syndrome has poor prognosis,and T3 may be a predictive marker in evaluating the prognosis of critical patients.
