OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of xuebijing Injection (XI) on perioperative coagulation and inflammatory reaction in senile patients receiving total hip arthroplasty (THA).

METHODSTotally eighty patients receiving THA at Luoyang Orthopedics Hospital, 65 to 85 years old, were randomly assigned to the control group (40 cases) and the treatment group (40 cases). All patients received routine perioperative therapies. Those in the treatment group received XI (adding 50 mL XI in 100 mL normal saline, 30 min each time). XI was continually injected after THA, twice daily for 3 successive days. Blood samples were harvested on the morning of the 2nd admission day (TO), immediately after operation (T1), on the morning of the 3rd day after operation (T3), and on the morning of the 5th day after operation (T4) to detect prothrombin time (PT), thrombin time (TT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), levels of FIB and D-dimer (D-D), changes of white blood cell (WBC), neutrophils (N), C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and IL-6. Complications of surgery were compared between the two groups.

RESULTSThere was no statistical difference in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and blood transfusion between the two groups (P >0.05). Compared with TO in the same group, WBC, N, CRP, ESR, IL-6, PT, TT, and D-D all increased in the control group at T1-T4 (P < 0.05); APTT increased at T1-T2 (P <0.05); FIB increased at T1-T3 (P <0.05). WBC, N, IL-6, PT, and D-D all increased in the treatment group at T1-T3 (P <0.05); CRP and ESR increased at T1-T4 (P < 0.05); TT increased at T1-T2 (P <0.05); APTT and FIB increased at T1 (P <0.05). Compared with the control group at the same time period, WBC, N, CRP, and IL-6 all decreased in the treatment group at T1-T4 (P <0.05), ESR decreased at T3-T4 (P <0.05); PT and TT decreased at T1-T3 (P <0.05); FIB and D-D decreased at T2-T4 (P<0.05). The occurrence of each complication was significantly lower in the treatment groups than in the control group.

CONCLUSIONXI could improve the perioperative high coagulation state of senile THA patients, inhibit inflammatory reactions, and reduce complications.

OBJECTIVE: To review and summarize the effect of health literacy on medication safety and the progress of recent studies. METHODS: Pubmed and Google were searched for related studies conducted in recent 20 years worldwide. The effect of health literacy on patient's medication understanding and medication behavior was reviewed. This paper also analyzed the current situation and future prospects of studies on health literacy in clinical practice in China. RESULTS: Patients with inadequate health literacy are less likely to understand medication information correctly and their actual medication practice is less likely to match their medication record in health care system. CONCLUSION: The assessment of health literacy can help pharmacists discriminate patients with different health literacy levels and predict patients' medication understanding and medication behavior, which is a useful tool to promote the efficiency of patient education and medication safety.

The results of the current studies demonstrated that the combined use of IL - 2 and IL - 7 could augment the in vitro proliferative responses of tumor - specific T cell lines and clones to antigen stimulation, increasing stimulation induces 6 to 8 times greater than using either IL - 2 or IL - 7 alone. Antigen - driven T cells maintained in culture using this combined cytokine regimen can be induced to grow and maintained functional in large numbers and survive long-term in cultrue with each antigen restimulation cycle prolonged to six weeks. The IL-2 doses used in this combined cytokine regimen can be reduced 10 to 100 times that of cultures using IL-2 alone. Thus, the combined use of IL-2 plus IL-7 is effective for procuring large numbers of antigen - specific functional T cells in vitro.

[Objective] Through a meta-analysis to compare the effectiveness and safety of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine in the treat-ment of chronic atrophic gastritis(CAG) with dysplasia . [Methods] Randomized clinical trials(RCTs) which compared traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine for chronic atrophic gastritis with dysplasia in PubMed, Cochrane library, WanFang and CNKI were searched. The patients which were analyzed were divided into two groups: western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine.Statistical heterogeneity between trials was evaluated by RevMan5.0. Heterogeneity of the included articles was tested and used to select proper effective model for calculation.Publication bias was investigated through visual inspection of funnel plots and Egger's regression model.[Results] 6 RCTs including 632 patients were analyzed. The total odd ratios(OR) of clinical symptoms,gastroscope symptoms,pathological symptoms by traditional Chinese medicine were higher than western medicine, the OR values were 3.40(95%CI:2.18~5.31,P<0.01),4.14(95%CI:2.37~7.20,P<0.01),2.94(95%CI:1.77~4.90,P<0.01),3.71(95%CI:2.29~6.02,P<0.01),4.41(95%CI:2.75~7.07,P<0.01),5.21 (95%CI:3.65~7.43,P<0.01). Inspection of the funnel plots for al outcome measures did not reveal evidence of publication bias( P=0.81, 0.41, 0.29, 0.88, 0.44, 0.82, respectively).[Conclusions] The treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis with dysplasia by traditional Chinese medicine can improve the excel ent response rate, overal response rate of clinical symptoms,gastroscope symptoms,pathological symptoms better than its purely western medicine treatment efficacy.

BACKGROUND: Pathogenesy of immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is not clear up to now. Present research has verified that the key pathogenetic pathway is abnormalities of IgA1 molecular O-glycosylation induced by decrease of ?1,3-galactosyltranferase activity in IgA1 hinge region of IgAN patients. Prophase study by the authors supposed that the key of IgAN O-glycosylation abnormality might be due to the decrease of ?1,3-galactosyltranferase specific molecular protein chaperone Cosmc in B lymphocyte of peripheral blood in IgAN patients. OBJECTIVE: To measure DNA sequence of ?1,3-galactosyltranferase specific molecular chaperone in coding region of Cosmc gene in IgAN patients,and compared with the sequence of Gene Bank. DESIGN: Case-controlled observation. SETTING: Department of Nephrology,West China Hospital,Sichuan University. PARTICIPANTS: Totally 27 IgAN patients and 10 non-IgAN patients were recruited in Department of Nephrology of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from November 2005 to August 2006,and five normal controls were included in this study. All the subjects knew the fact and agreed to participate in the experiment. METHODS: The experiment was performed at the State Key Laboratory of Biotherapy of Sichuan University. 2 mL peripheral venous blood of all the samples were taken into heparin sodium anticoagulated tubes,from which total genomic DNA were extracted by phenol/chloroform precipitation method. Concentration of DNA was determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometer. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify the coding region of ?1,3-galactosyltranferase specific molecular chaperone Cosmc gene in all the subjects and direct sequencing was done in PCR products of each subjects. The results of all the sequencing were compared with Gene Bank one by one. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Amplification findings and sequencing of coding region of ?1,3-galactosyltranferase specific molecular chaperone Cosmc gene by PCR. RESULTS: ①Coding region of Cosmc gene located at 257-1 213,and amplified Cosmc gene was 1 247 bp. ②The sequence of Cosmc gene coding region was similar in IgAN patients,non-IgAN patients and normal controls,and no difference of gene sequence was noticed in all the result sequences as compared with the Gene Bank registered sequence. CONCLUSION: No abnormal sequence is found in coding region of Cosmc gene in IgAN patients,suggesting that this coding region probably is not associated with the abnormalities of IgA1 O-glycosylation in IgAN.

Objective To investigate the effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on the growth of human pancreatic cancer cell lines. Methods Human pancreatic cancer cell lines Patu8988 and SW1990 were treated with DHA. The cell proliferation was evaluated by MTT assay. Cell cycle, apoptosis, and cyclooxygenase-2 ex-pression were evaluated by flow cytometry. Results After incubation of pancreatic cancer cell with DHA for 24 to 72 hours, cell proliferation significantly decreased (P<0. 01) and apoptosis increased, both of which were time- dependent and dose-dependent After incubation with 50μg/ml DHA for 24 hours, cyclooxygenase-2 expression of pancreatic cancer cell lines significantly decreased (P < 0. 05). Conclusions DHA can inhibit the growth of hu- man pancreatic cancer cells via decreasing cell proliferation and inducing apoptosis. These effects may be associat- ed with the decrease of cyclooxygenase-2 expression.
