Objective To approach the effects of the combination of simvastatin,clopidogrel and low molecular weight heparin on patients with unstable angina pectoris(UAP). Methods A total of 86 patients presented with UAP in Department of Internal Medicine of Tianjin Hongqiao Hospital were divided into control group and therapy group(each 43 cases)by random number table. The patients in the control group were treated with routine therapies such as oxygen,anti-platelet agents,nitrates,β-blockers,calcium channel antagonists,et al,while the patients in treatment group received besides the above conventional treatments,they additionally took simvastatin, clopidogrel orally and subcutaneous injection of low molecular weight heparin. The frequency of recurrence of angina, improvement of cardiac ischemia,the change of cholesterol,adverse reaction and the occurrence of complication were observed during 4 weeks of treatment. Results Compared to the control group,the frequency of angina(time/week:2.77±1.12 vs. 3.78±2.57,P<0.05)and consumption of nitroglycerin(mg/d:1.16±0.46 vs. 2.89±1.89,P<0.05) were obviously less,the improvement of cardiac ischemia(95.3%vs. 79.1%,P<0.05)and electrocardiogram(ECG:90.7%vs. 62.8%,P<0.05)was superior and the total effective rate was higher obviously in the therapy group. After treatment,plasma cholesterol levels were decreased obviously in treatment groups compared with before treatment (mmol/L:3.78±1.23 vs. 5.76±1.74,P<0.05),but the statististical difference in cholesterol levels in control group was found between before and after treatment(5.66±1.14 vs. 5.69±1.89,P>0.05). Before and after treatment,there were no significant changes of platelet count(PLT),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),liver functions and renal functions,and after treatment,bleeding and allergy serious adverse reactions were not seen in patients of both groups. Myocardial infarction occurred in 2 patients in the control group. Conclusion The addition of combined application of simvastatin,clopidogrel and low molecular weight heparin onto routine therapies has better effects for treatment of UAP.

A lot of evidence shows that autophagy is involved in the occurrence and development of cerebral ischemia - reperfusion. Autophagy and its related signal transduction pathways may be an effective therapeutic target for ischemic brain injury. This article reviews related signal transduction pathways of autophagy regulation after cerebral ischemia.

After the concept of symptoms in traditional Chinese medicine was defined, the classification of symp-toms in traditional Chinese medicine and the characteristics of clinical diagnosis and treatment in traditional Chinese medicine were described .It was suggested that the symptoms in traditional Chinese medicine should be classified into 3 kinds, namely symptoms and signs according to the 4 diagnostic methods, symptoms and signs according to the diagnostic devices, symptoms and signs according to the physical constitutions of patients in order to lay a foun-dation for improving the classification in clinical term system of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective To investigate the effects of C-peptide on apoptosis induced by high glucose and analyze the relationship between the apoptosis and expression of eNOS in HUVEC. Methods We determined the HUVEC apoptosis by Annexin-V, the expression of eNOS mRNA of HUVEC by RT-PCR, the apoptotic quantity of HUVEC by DNA fragment ELISA. Results High level of glucose could increase HUVEC apoptosis (P<0.01) and reduce the expression of eNOS. After adding physiological or high concentration of C-peptide, the apoptosis decreased and the expressions of eNOS increased markedly, with the relationship coefficient of -0.854 (P<0.01). Conclusion High glucose may induce apoptosis. Physiological or high concentration of C-peptide may reduce the apoptosis induced by hyperglycemia, the relationship between apoptosis and eNOS is negative.

Objective: To investigate the current situation of consumption and development tendency of antitumor Chinese herbal injections in Wuhan area. Methods:The analytical method of the defined daily dose ( DDD) recommended by WHO was used to ana-lyze the application of antitumor Chinese herbal injections in 32 hospitals of Wuhan area during the period of 2010-2012. Results:The consumption sum and the DDDs of antitumor Chinese herbal injections were increased year after year, while the daily drug cost ( DDC) was stable in general. The sort of consumption was generally in accordance with the sequence of DDDs. Conclusion:The status quo of antitumor Chinese herbal injections during the period of 2010-2012 is in line with the characteristics of clinical application, indicating the use is rational.

Objective To explore the role of clinical pharmacists in nutrition support therapy in the patients with hyperemesis gravidarum. Methods The clinical pharmacist played a positive role in nutrition support care of a patient with hyperemesis gravidarum by analysising disease characteristics and adverse drug reactions, providing suggestion on the selection of fat emulsion and offering an individualized pharmaceutical care. Results The clinical pharmacist recognized the potential risk in nutrition support plan, took modifications timely, and prevented the occurrence of unfavorable clinical outcomes. Conclusion The participation of clinical pharmacists in nutrition support therapy of the patients with hyperemesis gravidarum is beneficial to improve the efficacy and safety of nutrition support and promote the rational use of drugs.

Objective To explore the use of urine LH test paper associating basal body temperature in ovulation monitoring and conception guiding in anovulatory infertility.Methods We used clomiphene to treat 100 anovulatory infertility patients.Then we recorded basal body temperature and used urine LH test paper in morning to determine whethere there is urine LH peak between the 12th to 20th day of menstrual cycle.If the patient become pregnant,we stop observation.If not,we observed them until the third treatment cycle completed.Result Before treatment,both the urine LH test paper and basal body temperature showed there was no ovulation.After treatmend,we observed 199 menstrual cycle.There were urine LH peak in 149 menstrual cycle.And there were double phase body temperature in 158 treat cycle.The lowest body temperature appeared in the urine LH peak day or after it.71.1%of the lowest body temperature emerged in one or two days after the urine LH peak appeared.76 patients in our study become pregnant,pregnancy rate is 76%.Conclusion Urine LH test paper associating basal body temperature is convenient and easy tO learn.It is a good way in ovulation monitoring and conception guiding.

Objective To isolate the rat insulin gene enhancer binding protein 1(Islet-1)gene and construct plEGFP-C1-Islet-1 recombinant retroviral expression vector.Methods The cDNA encoding the rat Islet-1 gene was isolated by RT-PCR method,the cDNA was first cloned into PGET-1 TA vector to facilitate the sequence and then subcloned into the retroviral vector plEGFP-C1.plEGFP-C1-Islet-1 was transfected into PA317 packaging cells with lipofectamine 2000.Transformants were selected in medium containing G418.Results A 1 050 bp DNA fragment was obtained by RT-PCR;plEGFP-C1-Islet-1 recombinant retroviral expression vector was identified by restrictive enzymes digestion,PA317 cells transfected with recombinant vector expressed enhancer green fluorescent protein(EGFP).Conclusion The gene encoding the rat Islet-1 is obtained and plEGFP-C1-Islet-1 expression vector is constructed successfully.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the risk factors of nosocomial infection among child tumor patients with post-surgery chemotherapy.METHODS A total of 312 child tumor cases with post-surgery chemotherapy in the pediatric ward during from Dec 2004 to Dec 2008 were retrospectively reviewed.And 16 variables such as age,diagnosis,white blood cell count and nosocomial infections were studied.The data were analyzed with the single factorial ?2 test and multifactorial Logistic-regression analysis.RESULTS The incidence of nosocomial infection was 27.56%.The length of hospitalization,the white blood cell count,the neutrophil cell count and the invasive operation were found as independent risk factors of the nosocomial infection.CONCLUSIONS Shortening the hospitalization length,increasing the white blood cell and the neutrophil cell count and avoiding the unnecessary invasive operation will decrease the nosocomial infection.
