Objective To develop a HPLC method for determining the contents of lobetyolin and gallic acid in Eighteen Flavors Dangshen Pill(EFDSP) produced by different factories.Methods The HPLC analysis was performed on a VP-DOS C18 column (4.6 mm×150 mm,5 μm).The mobile phase was acetonitrile and 0.4% glacial acetic acid(21∶79) in the determination of lobetyolin content.The detection wavelength was 267 nm and the flow velocity was 1 mL/min.the column temperature was25 ℃ and the sample size was10 μL.The mobile phase was methanol and 0.4% glacial acetic acid(1∶99) in the determination of gallic acid content.The detection wavelength was 280 nm.The column temperature was 25 ℃ and the sample size was 10μL.Results The contents of lobetyolin and gallic acid in EFDSP were 1.0835mg·g-1and 15.334 0 mg/g for Qinghai Gela Dandong Tibetan Pharmaceutical Factory;0.628 9 mg/g and 15.159 5 mg/g for Changdu Tibet Medicine Factory;0.306 5 mg/g and 8.762 7 mg/g for Tibetan Hospital of Tibet.Conclusion This method has the advantages of good reproducibility,good accuracy,simple and fast operation.The contents of lobetyolin and gallic acid in EFDSP produced by different manufacturers are significantly different.The gallic acid content has greater difference.It provides the reference for quality control of EFDSP

ObjectiveTo investigate the distribution of Kashin-Beck disease(KBD) in Tibet, and assess the disease status. Methods Between 2007 and 2008, a survey was done on KBDepidemiology which was carried out in four prefectures of 26 counties according to the east, south, west, north and center in Nakchu,Lhoca, Nyingtri and Shigatse districts of Tibet, with towns and villages as baseline survey points. According to the KBD e survey scheme, KBD clinical examination for adults was also carried out and at the same time clinical and right hand anteroposterior X-ray examinations were given to children aged 4 - 13. The partition of endemic area was based on the criteria of national standards for Kashin-Beck disease diagnoses《GB 16395-1996》. Slight KBD area:clinical prevalence of Kashin-Beck disease grade Ⅰ and above was less than 10% or X-ray detection rate < 10% of children; the moderate prevalent KBD area: clinical prevalence of Kashin-Beck disease grade Ⅰ and above was between 10% and 20% or X-ray detection rate was between 10% and 30% of children; severe KBD area: clinical prevalence of KBD grade Ⅰ and above was more than 20% or X-ray detection rate was higher than 30% of children.ResultsA total of 108 townships of 26 counties were surveyed, 14 686 adults were clinically examined, cases detection of grade Ⅰ and above were 637 people, the prevalence was 4.34%, and no case of grade Ⅲ was detected.Of 5769 children's right anteroposterior X-ray film, 102 were detected positive; the prevalence rate was 1.77%.Metaphysis was affected in most of the child cases, which accounting for 89.2% (91/102). Amongst all the counties, there were 10 counties, clinical detection rate of adult KBD was 0, and children's X-ray detection rate of KBD was also 0. In 1 county the clinical prevalence rate for adults KBD was 0 and X-ray detection rate for children was 3.66(7/191 ). In 12 counties the clinical prevalence rate for adults KBD was between 1.03% and 7.54%, X-ray detection rate for children was between 0 and 7.76%, amongst all these counties surveyed there were 5 counties,the detection rate for children was 0. In 3 counties the clinical prevalence rate for adult KBD was between 10.69%and 13.88%, the X-ray detection rate for children was between 5.31% and 7.76%. Conclusions According to the criteria for diagnoses of KBD, within the 26 counties surveyed, 10 counties are non-endemic areas, 13 counties are slight endemic areas, 3 counties are medium endemic areas. So far, KBD is prevalent in 52 counties of 7 prefectures (cities) in Tibet, the disease is widely distributed, the situation is still severe, and there is a need to continue to strengthen KBD surveillance.

OBJECTIVETo investigate whether plasma from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) inhibits the suppressive effects of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on lupus B lymphocytes.
METHODSMSCs isolated and expanded from the bone marrow of healthy donors were co-cultured with B cells purified from the peripheral blood of SLE patients in the presence of fetal bovine serum or pooled plasma from SLE patients, and the proliferation and maturation of the B lymphocytes were analyzed.
RESULTSs Co-culture with normal MSCs obviously inhibited the proliferation of lupus B cells and suppressed the maturation of B lymphocytes, which showed lowered expressions of CD27 and CD38. The pooled plasma from SLE patients significantly inhibited the suppressive effects of normal MSCs on B cell proliferation and maturation.
CONCLUSIONPlasma from SLE patients negatively modulates the effects of normal MSCs in suppressing lupus B cell proliferation and maturation to affect the therapeutic effect of MSC transplantation for treatment of SLE. Double filtration plasmapheresis may therefore prove beneficial to enhance the therapeutic effects of MSC transplantation for SLE.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of primary acute mesenteric venous thrombosis (AMVT) in plateau area.Methods:Data of 54 primary AMVT cases admitted to the People's Hospital of Tibet Autonomous Region between Jan 2015 and Jul 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 42 males and 12 females, aged from 29-79 years. One hundred and ninty matched volunteers severed as control. Logistic multivariate regression analysis was used to screen out independent risk factors. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the area under the curve are used to evaluate the value of each indicator and model prediction.Results:Univariate analysis showed that the two groups were significantly different in gender, smoking history, drinking history, and hemoglobin concentration ( P<0.05); there was no significant difference in age, altitude of residence, uric acid and BMI ( P>0.05). Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that male ( OR=2.466, 95% CI: 1.166-5.212, P=0.018), elevated hemoglobin levels ( OR=2.761, 95% CI: 1.411-5.403, P=0.003) were independent risk factors for primary AMVT. The area under the ROC curve of the two predictors and prediction model are 0.639 (95% CI: 0.559-0.719), 0.650 (95% CI: 0.563-0.737), 0.697 (95% CI: 0.618-0.776). Conclusion:Male and elevated hemoglobin levels are independent risk factors for primary AMVT in plateau areas.
