Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Qingzhuo Qudu Pills combined with acupuncture in treating chronic nonbacterial prostatitis and to explore the possible molecular mechanism. Methods A total of 160 cases of chronic nonbacterial prostatitis were randomly divided into western medicine group, Chinese medicine group, acupuncture group and combined group, 40 cases in each group. The western medicine group was given Tamsulosin and Celecoxib tablets orally, Chinese medicine group was given Qingzhuo Qudu Pills, acupuncture group were given acupuncture, and the combined group were given Qingzhuo Qudu Pills plus acupuncture. Treatment period covered 30 days. Before and after treatment, the clinical efficiency of the four groups was assessed by the US National Institutes of Health chronic prostatitis symptom index ( NIH-CPSI) scores, and routine prostatic fluid examiantion and drug safety assessment were also carried out. Results ( 1) The total effective rate was 69.23%, 84.62%, 74.36% and 92.50% in the western medicine group, Chinese medicine group, acupuncture group and combined group, respectively; the combined group had the best clinical efficiency ( P<0.05) , and then came Chinese medicine group ( P<0.05) , but the difference between acupuncture group and western medicine group was insignificant (P>0.05). (2) After treatment, the total scores and scores of each item of NIH-CPSI were decreased in the four groups ( P<0.05 compared with those before treatment) , and the improvement of general symptoms, the quality of life, pain and urination in the combined group was superior to that in the other 3 groups ( P<0.05) . ( 3) After treatment, levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) were decreased to various degrees (P<0.05 or P<0.01 compared with those before treatment), and the decrease in the combined group was superior to that in the other 3 groups (P<0.05). (4) The blood, urine and stool routine examination, electrocardiography, hepatic and renal function of the 4 groups stayed normal before and after treatment, and no adverse reaction was present in the 160 cases. Conclusion Qingzhuo Qudu Pills combined with acupuncture is safe and effective in treating chronic non-bacterial prostatitis through relieving symptoms and reducing the degrees of prostatitis. Cytokines may play an important role in the pathogenesis and treatment of chronic prostatitis.

Starting from the clinical practice,this paper considers the common used syndrome typing in current of zang-fu differentiation are basic syndromes. It is too general,weak in pertinency and inconvenient for the clinical application. Therefore,we provide the new assumption about the detailed typing of zang-fu differentiation,and expatiate its concept,principle,basis and significance. Through these,TCM syndrome differentiation system can be expanded in some sense. The paper also provides a new way for building an objective and standard TCM system.

Objective To evaluate bone marrow smear examination in early diagnosis of AIDS complicated with disseminated Penicillium marneffei infection. Methods Seventy-three clinically suspected AIDS patients complicated with disseminated PeniciUium marneffei infection were included in the study. Peripheral blood and bone marrow smear examinations, and the fungal thermally dimorphic culture were performed in all cases. Results PeniciUium marneffei infection was identified in 44 patients by peripheral blood and bone marrow fungal thermally dimorphic culture. The features of the bone marrow smear were as follows : they were all hyperplastic or significantly hyperplastic; there were thickened and increased granules, vacuolization and band-formed in most granulocytes; there were increased and augmented histiocytes, and increased plasma cells. In 12 samples of bone marrow smear, there were phagncytized mulberry-like Penicillium marneffei organisms in the cytoplasm of the histiocytes or the organisms found extracellularly. One sample demonstrated the increased granulocytes and the phagocytized organisms in the neutrophils and monocytes. In 4 samples of peripheral blood smear, there were phagocytized Penicillium marneffe organisms in the neutrophils and monocytes. Conclusion Bone marrow smear examination is of value in early diagnosis of AIDS complicated with disseminated Penicillium marneffei infection, which is 7 to 10 days earlier than routine fungal thermally dimorphic culture.

Ultrafine powder and cell wall-broken powder of herbal medicine lack of the morphological characters and microscopic identification features. This makes it hard to identify herb's authenticity with traditional methods. We tested ITS2 sequence as DNA barcode in identification of herbal medicine in ultrafine powder and cell wall-broken powder in this study. We extracted genomic DNAs of 93 samples of 31 representative herbal medicines (28 species), which include whole plant, roots and bulbs, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds. The ITS2 sequences were amplified and sequenced bidirectionally. The ITS2 sequences were identified using Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) method in the GenBank database and DNA barcoding system to identify the herbal medicine. The genetic distance was analyzed using the Kimura 2-parameter (K2P) model and the Neighbor-joining (NJ) phylogenetic tree was constructed using MEGA 6.0. The results showed that DNA can be extracted successfully from 93 samples and high quality ITS2 sequences can be amplified. All 31 herbal medicines can get correct identification via BLAST method. The ITS2 sequences of raw material medicines, ultrafine powder and cell wall-broken powder have same sequence in 26 herbal medicines, while the ITS2 sequences in other 5 herbal medicines exhibited variation. The maximum intraspecific genetic-distances of each species were all less than the minimum interspecific genetic distances. ITS2 sequences of each species are all converged to their standard DNA barcodes using NJ method. Therefore, using ITS2 barcode can accurately and effectively distinguish ultrafine powder and cell wall-broken powder of herbal medicine. It provides a new molecular method to identify ultrafine powder and cell wall-broken powder of herbal medicine in the quality control and market supervision.

Objective High-throughout sequencing of all plasmid of 206 strains of Klebsiella pneu-moniae using Solexa/Illumina sequencing technology in order to investigate the resistance for plasmids in Klebsiella pneumoniae. Methods Bacterial isolates were obtained over the years 2002-2008. Solexa/Illumi-na sequencing technology was used to sequence both samples (S1 and S2) to a depth of between 10-560 fold coverage. We used SOAP provided by BGI to find SNPS and use velvet package to assemble these sequences and gained some long sequences, and MAQ programs developed in the laboratory were used to annotate SNPs and compare lineage-specific mutations in SHV-ESBLs. Results The Metagenome of plasmid encodes a 13 variety of resistance-related genes with exceptionally high copy numbers, including ABC-type efflux pumps and 4 variety of β-lactamases, SHV-ESBLs is abroad presence. We systematically investigated single nucleo-tide substitutions in plasmids metagenome, and found an amount of nonsynonymous mutations in the SHV-ESBLs genes. Conclusion Probabily in press of positive selection, we can clearly see these nonsynonymous changes predominantly occurred in plasmid SHV-ESBLs genes. And our findings indicate a unspecial low-level resistance contribute to antimicrobial efflux in the metagenome of plasmid in Klebsiella pneumoniae.
