OBJECTIVE:To study the antipyretic,in vitro and in vivo bacteriostatic effects of XBT METHODS:Experimen_ts were carried out on a rat model of using dry-yeast as pyretogenic agent and by conventional in vitro and in vivo antimicrobial tests,and the antipyretic and bacteriostatic effects of XBT were observed RESULTS:XBT can significantly inhibit the pyretogenesis induced by dry-yeast in rats;The result of antimicrobial experiment showed that XBT could significantly inhibit ?-hemolytic streptococcus,?-hemolytic streptococcus,streptococcus pneumaniae,and staphylococcus aureus in vitro It showed protective effects on infection with ?-hemolytic streptococcus CONCLUSION:XBT have antipyretic and bacteriostatic effects

Objective To discuss the clinical value of protein induced by vitaminK absence antagonist-Ⅱ (PIVKA-Ⅱ)and al-pha-fetoprotein (AFP)in diagnosing primary hepatocellular carcinoma (PHC).Methods There were 178 samples from in-patients in Fuzhou Infectious Disease Hospital,including 54 patients with PHC,39 patients with liver cirrhosis,55 patients with hepatitis and 30 cases of healthy.Serum levels of PIVKA-II and AFP levels were detected by LUMI-PULSEG1200 au-tomatic immunity analyzer and Abbott automatic immunity analyzer respectively,and the difference between the levels was compared.Analyzed the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC-AUC)and compared the sensitivity and specificity of single PIVKA-II or AFP assay,and the combined detection of PHC.Results The serum level of PIVKA-Ⅱ in hepatocellular carcinoma group was 274 mAU/ml,which was higher than that in liver cirrhosis group (23 mAU/ml), chronic hepatitis group (26 mAU/ml)and healthy group (21 mAU/ml)(P<0.001),and the levels of AFP in PHC group was 84.0 ng/ml,which was higher than that in liver cirrhosis (21.78 ng/ml)and healthy groups (2.8 ng/ml).But it was not statistically significant (P=0.585)compared with those in the chronic hepatitis group (66.8 ng/ml),the results of re-ceiver operating characteristic (ROC)curve showed that the area under the curve of PIVKA-Ⅱ was 0.776,higher than the AFP (0.649),(Z=2.262,P=0.023 7).Serum PIVKA-Ⅱ (≥40 mAU/ml)had a sensitivity of 78.52% and a specificity of 76.23% in the diagnosis of PHC,While serum AFP (≥10 mg/ml)had a sensitivity of 77.78% and a specificity of 34.64%in the diagnosis of PHC.A combination of serum levels of PIVKA-Ⅱ and AFP could increase the sensitivity in the diagnosis of PHC (vs PIVKA-Ⅱ,P=0.031;vs AFP,P=0.016)and specificity (vs PIVKA-Ⅱ,P=0.004;vs AFP,P=0.001).Con-clusion Serum PIVKA-Ⅱ have high clinical application values in diagnosing PHC.A combination of serum levels of PIV-KA-Ⅱ and AFP could increase the sensitivity and specificity in diagnosis of PHC.
