AIM: To investigate the effect of treatment based on syndrome differentiation only and combined with Shexiang Baoxin Pill for acute ischemic stroke(AIS). METHODS: Fifty-eight cases of AIS were randomly (allocated) to two groups.Thirty cases of group A were treated with treatment based on syndrome differentiation combined with Shexiang Baoxin Pill and twenty-eight cases of group B with the treatment based on syndrone differentiation. Therapeutic effects were observed in one month after medication. RESULTS: The total effective rate was 90% in group A and 89.3% in group B, the difference being not significant. However, the difference of markedly-effective rate was significant (P

Objective: To optimize the Shenzhen universal infant hepatitis B immunization method. Methods: To analyze the long effectiveness of different immunization strategies and disease transition after hepatitis B virus infection by using cost-effectiveness method through decision-tree and Markov models among the Shenzhen newborns cohort in 2010 based on the local parameters. Results:Through the current strategies, the program of screening all pregnant women for HBsAg and vaccinating newborns of single-positive mothers combing with HBIG and vaccine would not only prevent more new cases, hepatic carcinoma and related deaths; but also gain more living years and QALYs. From the social prospect, it will save about RMB 40 million compared with the current program. Conclusion: It is suggested that Shenzhen Government should amend the current universal infant hepatitis B immunization program to gain more economic and social benefits.

[Objective] To investigate the effect of aromatic herbs for resuscitation such as Moschus and Borneol on nitric oxide (NO) content and expression of endothelial NO synthetase (eNOS) and inducible NO synthetase (iNOS) in brain tissue of rats with cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury. [Methods] Forty rats were allocated to 4 groups: mimic operation group (Group A), model group (Group B), herbs treatment group (Group C) and nimodipine treatment group (Group D). Rat model of cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury was established by Pulsinelli 4VO method. NO content in brain tissue was determined by nitrate reductase method. Expression of eNOS and iNOS in micrangium and iNOS in neurons was measured by semi-quantitative analysis. [Results] NO content was decreased and approached normal level in Group C and Group D (P 0.05 as compared with Group A). Aromatic herbs with action of inducing resuscitation increased the expression of eNOS in micrangium and decreased the expression of iNOS in micrangium and neurons, the differences being significant as compared with those in Group B ( P

To investigate the effect of treatment based on syndrome differentiation combined with resuscitation inducing aromatic herbs for acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Forty four cases of AIS were randomly allocated to two groups. Twenty cases of Group A were treated with treatment based on syndrome differentiation combined with Tongqiao capsule(each capsule containing Moschus 0 04?g and Borneolum 0 1?g)and twenty four of Group B with treatment based on syndrome differentiation. Therapeutic effect were observed in the second week after medication. The total effective rate was 95% in Group A and 91 6% in Group B, the difference being not significant. However, the difference of markedly effective rate (80 0% in Group A and 54 2% in Group B) was significant (P

Objective To construct bispecific antibody BsAb1/17 against both IL-1β and IL-17A,express and purify the biologically active BsAbl/17 protein in prokaryotic system for further studies and applications. Methods VH1VL17-CL and VL1VH17-CH1 gene segments were constructed by overlap-PCR.Restriction enzyme sites Nco Ⅰ and BamH Ⅰ were designed at the 5'and 3' end primers respectively. The products of overlap-PCR were ligated to the Nco Ⅰ/BamH Ⅰ -prepared pET-27b vector. The recombinant plasmids pET-27b-VH1 VL17-CL(petA) and pET-27b-VL1 VH17-CH1 ( petB ) were transformed into E. coliRosetta separately. The expressing products were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. Neutralization activity of the bispecific antibody for blocking the induction of IL-18 expression by IL-1β in human T cells was determined by real-time PCR. Neutralization activity of the bispecific antibody for blocking the induction of IL-6 expression by IL-17A in HeLa cells was determined by ELISA assay. Results The structure of the plasmids pET-27b-VH1 VL17-CL(petA) and pET-27b-VL1 VH17-CH1 (petB)was confirmed by DNA sequencing. After induction, the fusion proteins were expressed mainly as inclusion bodies. The purity of the both proteins exceeded 90%. SDS-PAGE analysis suggests the relative molecular mass of both products expressed by petA and petB were approximately 38× 103, which is in accordance with the theoretical value. The results of Western blot and ELISA test demonstrated that BsAb1/17 molecule had binding ability to both IL-1β and IL-17A. The BsAb1/17 could block IL-1β to stimulate human T cell to express IL-18 and block IL-17A to stimulate HeLa cell to express IL-6. Conclusion We successfully constructed a novel bispecific antibody BsAb1/17 against both IL-1 β and IL-17A, and expressed biologically active BsAb1/17 protein in prokaryotic system.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI)in the diagnosis and aggressiveness assessment of prostate cancer.Methods The MR data with multi-b-value diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)of 30 male patients with prostate cancer were retrospectively analyzed.D maps and K maps were generated from the DKI model and ADC maps were obtained using the conventional monoexponential model.Differences in the D,K and ADC values between prostate cancer and benign peripheral zone (PZ)tissues,among tumors with different Gleason scores were analyzed.P<0.05 was considered statistical significance.Results ADC and D values were significantly lower in the prostate cancers than in the benign PZs (P <0.001).K values were significantly greater in the prostate cancers than in the benign PZs (P <0.001).ADC,D and K values were different significantly among the tumors with Glea-son scores of 6,7 and ≥8 (P <0.001,P =0.01 5 and P <0.001,respectively).Conclusion The DKI model can better describe the signal intensity attenuation with b values increasing,which is helpful for diagnosing and grading prostate cancer.K value may be used to quantitatively evaluate the complicated microstructure of prostate cancer.

Objective To analyze and explore the value of 3 T high resolution magnetic resonance vessel wall imaging for identifying the activity of Takayasu arteritis. Methods Twenty-six consecutive patients with Takayasu arteritis underwent 3.0 T high resolution MR vessel wall imaging on supraortic vessels (according to the classification of Lupi-Herrea , type Ⅰ and Ⅲ were included). Sixteen patients were in active phase and 10 in inactive phase based on the Kerr criteria. The MR vessel wall imaging appearances of Takayasu arteritis were compared between the active phase and inactive phase cases. Results Wall thickening was demonstrated in all involved arteries. There were statistically significant differences between active phase and inactive phase cases in MR appearances including multi-ring thickening of vessel wall (75/80 and 18/50), arterial inner wail enhancement (50/80 and 19/50), obscurity of perivascular fat (55/80 and 18/50,X<'2>=50.39,7.41,13.40,P<0.01). There was also a statistically significant difference in the thickness of carotid artery wall between the two groups [ (3.8±0.2) mm vs (2.5±0.8) mm]. Conclusion 3 T high resolution MR vessel wall imaging is valuable for identifying the activity of Takayasu arteritis.
