Objective To explore the clinical significance of serum total bile acid (TBA) test in evaluation of the prognosis of posthepatitis cirrhosis.Methods 92 patients with posthepatitis cirrhosis were selected as the observation group,and divided into A,B,C groups according to the Child-Pugh grades.32 healthy people were selected as the control group.The level of serum TBA was detected and compared.Results The level of TBA in the observation group was (84.26 ±49.03) μmol/L,which was higher than that in the control group[(3.52 ± 2.67) μmol/L](t =17.53,P ＜ 0.01).The level of TBA was gradually increased in Child-Pugh grade A,B,C grade,and the differences were statistically significant (t =3.84,6.21,5.49,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion TBA test is benefit for the diagnosis and prognosis of posthepatitis cirrhosis.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of pharmaceutical care (PC) program on hypotension. METHODS: The pertinent literature from January 1999 to February 2008 was retrieved from Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane, CNKI, CBM and other databases, and the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with the intervention measures of PC were collected. The literature retrieving and screening were done respectively by 2 statistical clerks. A meta-analysis of the data was conducted by using the Review Manager 4.2 software. RESULTS: A total of 5 RCTs with 585 hypertension patients were included in this Meta analysis. Compared with the control group, the PC program intervention group had significantly lower systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) after follow-up; and the SBP and DBP had a much better improvement in the intervention group than in the control group. CONCLUSION: The high blood pressure can be effectively controlled by carrying out the PC program such as medication consultation and health education etc in hypertensive patients.

Objective To elucidate that AIDS is not equal to any disease of TCM. Methods Previous literatures on differentiating the difference between AIDS and its similar TCM termed diseases as "Fuqiwenbing", "Wendu", and "Xulao" were reviewed and further discussion on the differences was performed by the author. Results Many scholars draw a conclusion that AIDS is not equal to any of TCM diseases or syndromes by their detailed research, comparison and analysis. Conclusion AIDS is not any of TCM termed disease, but it can be treated with the successful experience of TCM in treating other traditional diseases.

OBJECTIVE: To explore approaches for further development of pharmaceutical care in retail drugstores by strengthening drug administration. METHODS: The main problems occurred in pharmaceutical care were analyzed from the perspective of drug administration. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS: The main problems occurred in pharmaceutical care were the absence of laws and regulations related to pharmaceutical care,misalignment between the access criteria for retail pharmacy and the necessary conditions for pharmaceutical care. The development of pharmaceutical care could be promoted by perfecting current law system,enhancing the access criteria for running retail drugstore,and strengthening drug administration etc.

Objective To investigate the syndromes, syndrome elements and target sites of diabetic cerebral infarction. Method Firstly, literatures were searched from January 2003 to October 2013 in China Academic Journals Database (CNKI) retrieval system, then a database of 22 eligible articles was established. Syndromes of diabetic cerebral infarction were extracted from the database, then syndromes, syndrome elements and target sites were analyzed. Results Totally 2550 cases of diabetic cerebral infarction were concerned with 15 syndromes, including 659 cases of stagnation of phlegm and blood (25.84%), 445 cases of stagnation of phlegm-heat (17.45%), 366 cases of wind-phlegm syndrome (14.35%) and 341 cases of qi deficiency and blood stasis (13.37%). There were 10 syndrome elements in the 2550 cases, of which 1588 cases with phlegm (62.27%), 1026 cases with blood stasis (40.24%), 649 cases with qi deficiency (25.45%) and 539 cases with yin deficiency (21.14%). And seven target sites were encompassed, the highlights of which included 2502 cases of liver (98.12%), 2194 cases of spleen (86.04%), 2096 cases of kidney (82.20%) and 1026 cases of brain (40.24%). Conclusion The important syndrome elements of diabetic cerebral infarction were phlegm, blood stasis, qi deficiency and yin deficiency. The four major syndromes comprising stagnation of phlegm and blood, stagnation of phlegm-heat, wind-phlegm syndrome and qi deficiency and blood stasis were concluded, mainly affected the liver, spleen, kidney and brain. And there were two fundamental pathogenesis in diabetic cerebral infarction:qi and yin deficiency, phlegm and blood stasis.

Purpose Blast lung injury is severe, and is the main causes of death in explosion. This paper aims to explore the imaging features of blast lung injury, and to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and care. Materials and Methods The clinical data of 37 patients with primary blast lung injury stricken in the 8.2 Kunshan explosion in 2014 were retrospectively studied, with regard to the degree of burn, area, auxiliary emergency treatment and medical history. The imaging manifestations of X-ray and/or CT were also analyzed. Results ① The X-ray and/or CT findings of chest showed that 6 cases (16.2%) presented no obvious abnormality of lung parenchyma, 14 cases (37.8%) manifested increase of lung markings and spot-like clouding opacity, 6 cases (16.2%) presented ground glass opacity, 7 cases (18.9%) manifested patchy shadow, 4 cases (10.8%) showed diffuse consolidation. 6 cases (16.2%) with pleural effusion, 6 cases (16.2%) complicated with pneumothorax and hydropneumothorax, 4 cases (10.8%) with enlarged podoid and pericardial effusion, 2 cases (5.4%) with mediastinal hematoma, 9 cases (24.3%) with rib fracture. The positive rate of X-ray film inspection was 72.2% (13/18), yet that of CT reached 92.9% (13/14). ② Five patients who had not been seen obvious abnormal in emergency lung examination appeared mottling shadows or flake fuzzy shadows in the examination on the second day; 9 cases with aggravated symptoms and infection signs displayed relieved signs, expanded or changed primary lesions. Conclusion Imaging examination is an important tool in the diagnosis of primary blast lung injury. CT is superior to X-ray film on the detection of lesions; therefore, CT examination on chest should be carried out as soon as possible if conditions are allowed.

Objective To evaluate the association between cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection and atherosclerosis (AS) and explore the possible role of endothelin (ET) and serum tumor necrosis factor(TNF ?) in the pathogenesis of AS in diabetic patients and the relationship between HCMV infection and concentrations of ET and TNF ?. Methods Blood samples were collected from 21 patients with AS of type 2 DM, 47 patients with non AS of type 2 DM and 20 controls. Special antibodies to HCMV (IgM,IgG) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) . The concentrations of serum TNF ? and plasma ET were determined by RIA. Results (1) Type 2 diabetic patients, especially those with established AS, had a higher prevalence of active infection of HCMV. (2) The levels of plasma ET and serum TNF ? in type 2 diabetic patients were higher than those in normal people. In the pathogenesis of AS in diabetic patients, the ET played more important role than the TNF ?.(3) There was a significantly positive correlation between anti IgM to HCMV and the level of plasma ET in type 2 DM patients. It suggested that the injury of endothelium cell was related to the active infection of HCMV. Conclusion The study suggests that HCMV infection may be important in the pathogenesis of AS in type 2 diabetic patients and ET possibly plays an important role on the pathological course of AS.
