Multi-Efficacy of One Drug (MEOD) refers to the traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) with diverse efficacies.MEOD,one of the important characteristics of TCM,is regarded as the basis of clinical rational drug use.However,there have been few reports on the MEOD research so far.In this paper,with rhubarb selected as a typical model drug,metabolomics and network pharmacology analysis are integrated to investigate the mechanisms of MEOD with the employment of the two animal models of constipation and jaundice.Then,the biological target network of MEOD is established for promoting the precision of the quality control and clinical use of TCM.

Objective To investigate the regulatory effects of extracellular matrixes, including fi-bronectin(FN), and collagen Ⅰ (ColⅠ ) on the immunologic function of human airway smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) passively sensitized with asthmatic serum, and the role of phosphoinosifide 3-kinase (PI3K). Methods Primarily cultured HASMCs were inoculated on the blank plates or on the plates coated with difference matrix proteins, added 10% asthmatic serum to passively sensitized non-asthmatic HASMCs and 10% non-asthmatic serum treated HASMCs as control, cell pretreated with PI3K inhibitor LY294002 for 30 min. The expressions of RANTES, Eotaxin, TGF-β1 mRNA were observed by RT-PCR and RANTES, Eotaxin, TGF-β1 protein in the ceil culture supernatunts was detected by enzyme-linked immtmosorbent assay (ELISA). Results Compared with the control serum group, the expressions of RANTES, Eotaxin, TGF-β1 mRNA of HASMCs and those protein in HASMCs culture supematants were significantly increased in the asthmatic serum group and the control serum + FN group and the control serum + Col Ⅰ group ( P < 0.05 ). The expressions of RANTES, Eotaxin, TGF-β1 mRNA of HASMCs and protein in HASMCs culture superna-tants were significantly increased in the asthmatic serum + FN group and the asthmatic serum + Col Ⅰ group. 50 μmoL/L LY294002 could significantly inhibit the expressions of RANTES, Eotaxin, TGF-β1 mRNA of HASMCs and protein in HASMCs culture supematants(P < 0.05). Conclusion These results suggest ex-tracellular matrixe may regulate immunomodulatory function of HASMCs passively sensitized with asthmatic serum and PI3K signaling pathway may play an important role in the process.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a new semi-automatic drug dispensing mode,with proper cost,which falls in between full-automatic drug dispensing mode and manual drug dispensing mode,good work efficiency,standard and simple operation meth-od and meets national laws and regulations. METHODS:A semi-automatic drug dispensing system was designed,in which the in-formation in the drug dispensing sheet could be automatically printed on the drug bag,and automatic bagging,packaging and deliv-ery of drugs were realized. Such drug dispensing system included hardware(mechanical structures such as drug turntable and drug funnel,transmission device,etc.)and software control systems(the program of interface with hospital information system,micro control unit software,computer software,etc.). Through commissioning,formal operation and statistics,based on 18 oral drug dis-pensing sheets with the same contents,calculated the time of drug dispensing and the number of drug dispensing errors by 3 phar-macists respectively in manual drug bag dispensing mode and semi-automatic drug dispensing mode,to evaluate the effect of the semi-automatic drug dispensing system. RESULTS:From commissioning in May 2012 to formal operation in September 2012,the system operated normally and utility model patents were obtained. In the two modes,the total time of drug dispensing was 481 and 397 min (t=6.82,P<0.001),the numbers of drug dispensing errors were 25 and 7 (χ2=9.353 8,P=0.002 2),respectively. There was statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS:The semi-automatic drug dispensing system has higher efficiency and less num-ber of drug dispensing errors compared with manual drug bag dispensing mode and lower cost compared to full-automatic drug dis-pensing system. It deserves promotion.

Objective To discuss the health education effect of a self-made health education video for patients with hepatic carcinoma who are receiving transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE)therapy.Methods Based on the needs of patients,a TACE health education video was designed and produced,which was input into the tablet personal computer,such as iPad,to let patients watch.A total of 451 patients with liver cancer,who were admitted to the Department of Intervention,First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Technology and Science,China,to receive TACE during the period from June 2014 to June 2016,were included in this study.By using the random number table method,the patients were divided into the observation group (n=226) and the control group (n=225).The self-made health education video together with regular education was used to educate the patients of the observation group,while routine oral and written education was executed for the patients of the control group.The cognition to TACE-related knowledge,the compliance with postoperative treatment and nursing,and the patient's satisfaction were assessed and the results were compared between the two groups.Results The cognition in the following three aspects,including TACE-related knowledge,perioperative education and discharge education,in the patients of the observation group was significantly higher than that in the patients of the control group (P＜0.05).The compliance with postoperative treatment and nursing in the patients of the observation group was remarkably higher than that in the patients of the control group (P＜0.01).The patient's satisfaction in the patients of the observation group was strikingly higher than that in the patients of the control group (P＜0.01).Conclusion Health education by using a self-made health education video can improve liver cancer patient's cognition to TACE as well as the patient's compliance with postoperative treatment and nursing.The health education in the form of watching video can significantly improve health education effect and the satisfaction of the patients.Thus,it is worthy of clinical application.
