Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2015;(6):25-27
Objective To discuss the correlation between the distribution of TCM constitutional types and carotid artery intima-media thickness (CIMT) in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism;To select the biased constitution type with high risk factors for atherosclerosis;To provide theoretical basis for preventing this disease from the perspective of TCM physique. Methods Totally 120 patients with subclinical hypothyroidism and 50 cases of normal healthy subjects were selected. TCM constitutional types of two groups were distinguished by KY3H TCM physique recognition software. CIMT was determined, and the correlation between the distribution of TCM constitutional types and CIMT in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism was analyzed. Results In 120 cases of subclinical hypothyroidism, there were 3 cases of gentleness type (2.50%), 30 cases of qi-depression type (25.00%), 28 cases of qi-deficiency type (23.33%), 25 cases of yang-deficiency type (20.83%), 13 cases of phlegm-damp type (10.84%), 9 cases of yin-deficiency type (7.50%), 6 cases of blood stasis type (5.00%), 5 cases of dampness heat type (4.17%), 1 case of particular type (0.83%). The main TCM constitutional types of subclinical hypothyroidism were qi-depression type, qi-deficiency type, yang-deficiency type and phlegm-damp type. The morbidity of atherosclerosis in patients with qi-depression type and qi-deficiency type were higher than other constitutional types. Conclusion The main TCM constitutional types of subclinical hypothyroidism were qi-depression type, qi-deficiency type, yang-deficiency type and phlegm-damp type.

China Medical Equipment 2017;14(8):144-147
Objective:To explore the status and characteristic of psychology for primipara and gravida with second child so as to improve psychological status of them and take them keep positive mentality in whole gestation.Methods: 176 gravidas randomly were selected in this study, and a self-designed questionnaire of psychology was applied to evaluate and compare the psychological status and self-care capacity between primipara and gravida with second child by using method of questionnaire survey. The primipara and gravida with second child were implemented hierarchical management depended on their differently psychological problem, and personalized intervening measurement was adopted to enhance their self-care capacity.Results: The psychological enduring capacity, self-care capacity and the ability of deal with problem about interpersonal relationship of gravidas with second child were obviously better than that of primiparas, while the neglect degree for antenatal care of them was higher than that of primiparas.Conclusion: The whole society should pay attention to the process for gestation of pregnant woman, and give them higher social support so as to promote the maternal and child health and effectively decrease the occurrence rate of delivery risk.

Objective To quantify the contents of baicalin, wogonoside, baicalein, wogonin, chrysim and oroxylinA in the Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi with different storage time by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry( LC-MS) and determine the stability of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi. Methods The LC system consisted of an Agilent Zorbax XDB-C18 column (2. 1 mm×150 mm,3. 5 μm) with acetonitrile and water (0. 1% formic acid) in linear gradient condition. The flow rate was 0. 2 mL·min-1 and the wavelength of detection was 276 nm. The mass spectrometer was operated under the positive ion mode with the ESI source. The precursor-to-product ion pair was 447/271 for baicalin,461/285 for wogonoside,271/123 for baicalein, 285/270 for wogonin, 255/153 for chrysim and 285/270 for oroxylinA, respectively. Results The contents of baicalin, wogonoside, baicalein, wogonin, chrysim and oroxylin A had a linear relationship with their peak areas within the ranges of 8. 86-177. 2, 2. 33-46. 5, 2. 6-52. 0, 0. 52-10. 4, 0. 04-0. 8 and 0. 04-0. 8 μg · mL-1 , respectively. The contents of baicalin, wogonoside, baicalein, wogonin, chrysim, and oroxylin A were overall decreased over the first 3 months of storage,but remained relatively stable between 0 and 18 months. Conclusion The results provides basis for the establishment of quality standard.

Objective: To compare the volatile compounds extracted from Rhodiola renulata respectively by HS-SPME and SD. Methods:The volatile constituents from Rhodiola crenulata were extracted respectively by HS-SPME and SD, and then the contents and the names were confirmed by GC-MS. Results:Totally 39 compounds were identified from Rhodiola crenulata by HS-SPME while 16 ones were identified by SD. Among them, 4 common compounds were detected. Conclusion: There are some differences between the two methods. Compared with SD, HS-SPME is obviously better because more volatile constituents can be extracted from the herb, furthermore, HS-SPME has notable advantages of higher retrieval matching and sensitivity.

Objective To explore the correlation between the level of serum uric acid (UA) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP) with sudden cardiac death of coronary artery disease.Methods Clinical data of 80 patients with coronary artery disease were collected,and according to whether occurred coronary heart sudden cardiac death,the patients were divided into the observation group(coronary heart disease with sudden cardiac death group) and the control group(coronary heart disease with non-sudden death group),each group had 40 cases.The levels of serum UA,low-density hpoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),blood sugar,hs-CRP of the two groups were detected and compared.Results The UA and hs-CRP levels of male and female in the observation group were (444.06 ±36.44.) μmol/L,(7.29 ± 0.57) mg/L,(399.25 ± 9.91) μmol/L,(6.56 ± 0.38) mg/L,respectively,which were significantly higher than those in the control group [(289.40 ± 25.78) μmol/L,(1.04 ± 0.11) mg/L,(209.90 ±29.87) μmol/L,(1.22 ± 0.31) mg/L] (t =-15.49,-47.71,-26.90,-47.92,all P < 0.01).There were no statistically significant differences in the levels of LDL-C and blood glucose between the same sex of the two groups(t =-1.34,-1.54,-1.06,-1.33,all P > 0.05).Conclusion The increased levels of serum UA and hs-CRP may be associate with sudden cardiac death of coronary artery disease.

Aim The goal is to make a further comprehension of the pathogenesis of Parkinsons disease (PD) and hence add further knowledge for PD diagnosis by observing the functions of nitric oxide (NO) in striatum (STR). Method Microelectrodes were used to observe the effects of sodium nitroprusside (SNP), L-glutamic acid (GLU) and ?-aminobutyric acid (GABA) on STR neurons' spontaneous firing rates, and at the same time, we observed the effects of NO on GLU and GABA. Results 77% (51/66) of the tested neurons were excited by SNP, NO synthase inhibitor L-NAME antagonized the excitatory effect of SNP. Duringthe periods of microelectrophoresis GLU and GABA, SNP amplified the excitatory effect of GLU and weakened the inhibitory effect of GABA. L-NAME antagonized the excitatory effect of GLU.Conclusion These results demonstrated clearly that NO, GLU and GABA functions might converge in the same STR neurons. NO and GLU functions are excitatory whereas GABA function is inhibitory on the firing activities in STR neurons.
