Objective To study the effect of Xiaoaiping injection on Caov-3 human ovarian cancer cells and its mechanisms. Methods After treatment with Xiaoaiping injection, viability of Caov-3 cells determined by MTT method. Phase contrast microscopy was used to observed the morphological changes of Caov-3 cells. Cell cycle was assessed by FACS. Cell signaling pathway protein-Akt and pAkt, and cell cycle associated protein-p27 were measured by western blot. Results Xiaoaiping injection inhibited the growth of Caov-3 human ovarian cancer cells in a dose and time dependent manner. Xiaoaiping injection induced G0/G1 phase arrest of Caov-3 cells, accompanied by pAkt down-regulation and p27 up-regulation. Conclusion Xiaoaiping injection can inhibit the proliferation of Caov-3 human ovarian cancer cells by inhibiting PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the effects of exogenous glial cell derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)on colon glial cells in slow transit constipation (STC ) rats,and to explore the optimal concentration of GDNF in order to provide evidence for intestinal neurotrophic therapy in the treatment of STC.Methods A total of 132 SD rats were divided into STC group and control group,66 rats in each group.STC rats were established by feeding with rhubarb.Six rats were randomly selected from either groups to verify whether STC model was successfully established.And the left 120 rats of two groups were randomly divided into six subgroups:STC group one to group six and control group one to group six,ten rats in each group,which were untreated,injected through tail vein with saline,and 0.001 ,0.010, 0.050,0.100 μg/L GDNF 2 mL respectively for one week.The expression of Sox-8 at protein level of either group were detected by Western blotting.Independent sample t test was performed for statistical analysis.Results After treated with 0.001 μg/L GDNF (STC group three),there was no significant
difference in expression level of Sox-8 between STC group three and STC group one (13.38 ±0.70 vs 13.39±0.45 ,t = 0.042,P = 0.969 ).After treated with 0.010 μg/L GDNF (STC group four),the difference in expression level of Sox-8 between STC group four and STC group three was significant (21 .11 ±2.56 vs 13.38±0.70,t=5 .040,P <0.01).After treated with 0.050 μg/mL GDNF (STC group five),the expression level of Sox-8 was higher than that in STC group four (31.86±1.57 vs 21.11±2.56,t=-6.198,P <0.01 ).The Sox-8 expression of untreated,saline treated,0.001 and 0.050 μg/L GDNF treated STC rats (STC group one,two,three and five)were lower than those of the corresponding control groups (t= 3.394,12.103,10.302,- 6.120,all P < 0.05 ).Conclusion Exogenous GDNF could increase Sox-8 expression in colon tissue of STC rats,an increase in the number of colon glial cells could repair enteric nervous system,and 0.050 μg/L was the optimal concentration.

This study aimed at exploring the economic operation and developing trend of county-level public TCM hospitals in Guangxi Province,promoting the comprehensive reform of county-level public hospitals with feasible countermeasures and suggestions.In this study,forty-seven county-level public TCM hospitals were involved in the analysis of their economic operations and benefits by constituent ratio analysis,ratio analysis and trend analysis.As a result,the average gross income of the hospitals exceeded the total expenditure with a slight surplus.Drug income contributed the biggest share of the medical income,while the ratio of Chinese drug income to the medical income was increasing year by year.The debt ratio increased from 38.7％ in 2009 up to 44.6％ in 2013,being over 30％ in this period.In conclusion,it was demonstrated that problems were found in the lack of financial assistance,the low efficiency of economic management and the increasing average medical charges,which should be addressed by increasing investments to TCM hospitals,strengthening the performance appraisal and adjusting the charges of TCM medical services.

Objective To evaluate the guidance value of capsule endoscopy and clinical scoring system in risk stratification for acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB) .Methods 24 patients presenting to the emergency room with AUGIB ,were randomly divided into two groups (12 cases in each group) .Pre‐Endoscopic Blatchford and Rockall scores were calculated for all pa‐tients .All patients underwent endoscopy(EGD) within 24 hours .The timing of EGD was based on clinical scores in control group , and on VCE in observation group .Positive VCE was defined as red blood ,clot or coffee grounds .Mean Rockall and Blatchford scores for all 24 patients were compared to differentiate high‐and low‐risk patients .Rockall and Blatchford scores were also com‐pared with VCE findings .Results A total of 13 out of 24 patients had high‐risk stigmata on EGD ,with the mean Rockall and Blatchford scores of 3 and 13 respectively .Meanwhile ,the mean Rockall and Blatchford scores of the other 11 patients were 2 and 11 .There was no statistically significant difference between the Blatchford scores of the two groups(95% CI:5 .2‐1 .4 ;P=0 .23) . Also there was no statistically significant difference between the Rockall scores of the two groups(95% CI:2 .2‐0 .3;P=0 .12) .In the subgroup of 12 patients who underwent VCE ,9/12 had positive findings confirmed at EGD afterward ,compared with the other 3 patients with negative VCE and endoscopy .Conclusion Both the Rockall and the Blatchford scores are not accurate to predict the degree of risk in patients with AUGIB identified at EGD .However ,VCE is sensitive and specific enough to a better risk stratifica‐tion tool .

Objective To explore the value of 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy(31P MRS)for differential diagnosis of bone malignancy and inflammation.Methods Radiography.MRI and 31P MRs were performed on 20 bone malignancy patients,22 bone and soft-tissue inflarnmation patients and 32 healthy voluntecrs.The spectra were analyzed by measuring the areas under the peaks of various metabolites,and by calculating the pH from the Pi shift relative to PCr.The data were analyzed by one-way analysis of vailance (ANOVA).Results Analysis of the 31P MRS data suggested differences among the bone malignancy,the inflammation and the healthy group.The mean of PME/β-ATP ratio(1.24±0.37)in malignancy group increased significantly(P＜0.01).The mean of PDE/β-ATP(2.21.±0.37),Pi/β-ATP(1.46±0.43)in inflammation group was higher than that of the other two groups(P＜0.05),but the ratio of PME/β-ATP (0.19±0.10)wag not increasing.The LEP/T31P(0.10±0.02),PCr/T31P(0.45±0.03)and ATP/T31P (0.45±0.03)ratios in control group were significantly difierent from the two others(P＜0.01).The mean of intracellular pH in malignancy group was 7.45±0.16,higher than that in control group(7.05±0.06),and in inflaruination group(7.20±0.13)(P＜0.01).Conclusions The significant increase of PME and intraeellular pH is of great value in diagnosis of bone malignancy.Combined conventional radiography and MRI.31PMRs would be a simple,no-.invasive and effective diagnostic method.

In order to investigate the efficiency of a new quantitative head-band formed ocular compressor to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP), ocular compression by this new reducer with 40 mmHg for 10 min was performed on 87 cataractous eyes of 78 cases. The changes of IOP (87 eyes) and anterior chamber depth (ACD) were observed. There was a significant decrease of IOP and increase of ACD within 30 min after decompression (P < 0.001). The mean decrease of IOP was 5.62 +/- 2.41 mmHg and the mean increase of ACD was 0.18 +/- 0.09 mm within 5 min after decompression. The IOP 5 min after decompression had no significant difference with that 10 min after decompression (P > 0.05). IOP below 10 mmHg could last for about 15 min. This apparatus had been successfully applied to 80 eyes for extracapsular cataract extraction. It was suggested that this device had the advantages of safety, accurate quantification, reliable effect, casually adjusting pressure according to various demands and time-saving.
