Objective To evaluate the effect of live combined bifidobacterium, lactobacillus and enterococcus capsules for colitis in rats induced by trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS), so as to explore a new therapy for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Methods 50 female adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 5 groups i. e. normal control group(G1) ,untreated TNBS-induced colitis(G2) ,TNBS-induced colitis treated with live combined bifidobacterium, lactobacillus and enterococcus (G3), TNBS-induced colitis treated with olsalazine (G4) and TNBS-induced colitis treated with both live combined bifidobacterium, lactobacillus and enterococcus and olsalazine at the same dose and duration (G5). Each group received its respective treatment. Serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), TNFα and IL-10 were measured with ELISA, colonic myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity was determined with spectrophotometric method, histopathologic picture of the colon of each rat was studied with microscope and colonic mucosa damage index(CMDI) was recorded. Results Serum CRP,TNFα,IL-10,CMDI and colonic MPO in G1 were significantly lower than those in G2 (P < 0. 001) with normal colonic architecture. G2 exhibited the most severe colonic inflammation and the highest levels of CRP,TNFα, IL-10, CMDI and colonic MPO with stastical significance. Treatment groups G3, G4 and G5 showed more obvious colonic inflammatory remission and lower levels of serum CRP,TNFα , IL-10 and colonic MPO, G5 being most notable when compared to G2 with stastical significance. In G2, serum levels of CRP, TNFα, IL-10 and colonic MPO activity each correlated positively with CMDI (P < 0. 001). Conclusions Live combined bifidobacterium, lactobacillus and enterococcus can effectively ameliorate colitis in rats induced by TNBS; the underlying mechanism may possibly be associated with the serum levels of cytokines.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)granules made by the formula of Shegan Mahuang decoction for treatment of patients with asthma. Methods A prospective study was conducted,51 cases of light to moderate asthma(cold type)patients were randomly divided into treatment group (25 cases)and control group(26 cases). Conventional symptomatic treatments were of the same in two groups. The patients in control group were given salbutamol aerosol inhalation,100μg each time,4 times per day;based on the treatment of the control group,additionally the above mentioned TCM granules dissolved in water was administered orally 1 dose/day taken twice once in the morning and another once in the evening in treatment group. The therapeutic course was 12 weeks in both groups. Before and after treatment,the asthma control test(ACT)score,forced expiratory volume in 1 second(FEV1)and peak expiratory flow(PEF)were observed. The therapeutic effect,adverse reaction and compliance were evaluated. Results The number of patients with asthma completely controlled in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group(16 cases vs. 9 cases,χ2=4.82,P=0.028). In the patients of two groups,FEV1,PEF and ACT scores were significantly improved after treatment,and in the treatment group,they were obviously higher than those in control group〔FEV1(L):2.67±0.46 vs. 2.32±0.47,PEF(L/min):327.6±49.4 vs. 273.1±42.8,ACT score:22.8±2.0 vs. 21.1±2.6,all P<0.05〕. After treatment,FEV1%predicted value was increased in the treatment group but decreased in control group,there was significantly statistical difference〔(0.68±0.07)% vs.(0.80±0.11)%,P<0.05〕,no significant adverse reaction was found,compliance was good. Conclusion TCM granules made by formula of Shegan Mahuang decoction can improve the clinical symptoms, pulmonary function and control level in patients with asthma,so it is an effective medicine for the control of asthma.

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a noninfectious inflammatory response in nasal mucosa caused by allergens, which is contacted by a specific individual. The immune imbalance of Th1/Th2 plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AR. In?terleukin (IL)-33, the novel cytokine of IL-1 family, is an important regulatory factor of allergic diseases, autoimmune diseas?es and various inflammatory diseases. IL-33 is a kind of alarm, which is mainly secreted and released by damaged tissues and cells, especially impaired epithelial cells and endothelial cells. IL-33 binding to its receptor ST2L can activate a variety of immune cells to produce Th2 cytokines, precipitating and maintaining Th2 polarization, increasing AR immune inflamma?tion, which is the new target of AR in research and treatment. In this article, we have done a brief overview for the biological functions of IL-33 and its receptor ST2L and the research progress in the AR.

This study was aimed to evaluate the feasibility of wind-warm lung-heat disease (non-severe community-acquired pneumonia, CAP) from the clinical curative effect, hospitalization days, medical expenses and other aspects. This study selected 198 wind-warm lung-heat disease (non-severe CAP) inpatients from January, 2012 to December, 2012 with the conventional therapy in the Respiratory Department, Wuhan Integrated Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) & Western Medicine Hospital as the control group. And another 179 wind-warm lung-heat disease (non-severe CAP) inpatients were selected from January, 2013 to December, 2013 with the TCM clinical pathway treatment in the Respiratory Department of the same hospital as the treatment group. Retrospective analysis was used to compare the clinical curative effects, hospitalization days, and medical cost differences. The results showed that TCM clinical pathway for wind-warm lung-heat disease (non-severe CAP) can shorten the hospitalization days and reduce patients’ medical costs, and ensure the clinical curative effects. It was concluded that the standardized TCM clinical pathway had positive effect on wind-warm lung-heat disease (non-severe CAP). Therefore, the formulation and implementation of TCM clinical pathway was of great significance in the treatment of wind-warm lung-heat disease (non-severe CAP).

OBJECTIVE:To compare the quality control index between Jinzhen Suanzao teabag and decoction,and explore the alternative supplement of teabag to decoction. METHODS:The test sample solutions of Jinzhen Suanzao teabag and decoction were prepared by hot-maceration method and water-decoction method. The contents of water soluble extract and total flavonoids were de-termined and compared between 2 kinds of preparation. The leaching rates of teabag were investigated at different soak time(0,5, 10,15,20,25,30 min) to optimize soaking time. RESULTS:The average content of water soluble extract were 50.56% and 44.45%(P<0.05) respectively for the teabag and decoction. The total flavonoids content were 0.64 mg/g and 0.69 mg/g (P<0.05). The dissolution amount of teabag were increasing and leaching rate increased within first 20 min,and reached balance gradu-ally 25 min later. CONCLUSIONS:According to the convenience of use and results of each index,the difference in quality control index is not great between 2 kinds of preparation. Teabag can be as the supplement of decoction.

Objective To investigate the effects of partial body weight supported treadmill training (BW- STT) on post-stroke depression (PSD) and on patients' quality of life.Methods Sixty patients with PSD were re- cruited and divided into a training group (n=30,male 17,female 13) and a control group (n=30,male 16,fe- male 14).All patients were treated with routine internal medication and rehabilitation.The patients of the training group also received BWSTT in addition to their routine treatment.All patients' neurological impairment was evaluated using the Modified Edinburgh-Scandinavian Stroke Scale (MESSS).The Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) was used for evaluating the degree of depression.The Fugl-Meyer scale and the Barthel index were used to assess ambula- tion and balance,and facility in the activities of daily living.All patients were assessed before and after the treat- ment.Results After four weeks of treatment,depression in the training group had improved significantly more than in the control group.Conclusion BWSTT intervention is very important for patients with PSD:it can reduce the degree of depression and improve the quality of life.

Objective To evaluate the protective effect of aminophylline on myocardium in the patients undergoing prothetic valve replacement operation of heart.Mothods Thirty patients undergoing prothetic valve replacement operation of heart were randomized to be treated either with aminophylline(n=15)or without aminophylline treatment(n=15). Aminophylline(5mg/kg)was injected intravenously at 15 minutes after induction of anesthesia.Cardiac troponin I(cTnI), cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP),myeloperoxidase(MPO),ratio of aortic blood neutrophil count to coronary vein sinus blood neutrophil count,hemodynamics,time of aortic cress-clamping and other clinical data were recorded during the operation.Results There were no differences between the two groups in the major perioperative variables.Plasm cTnI concentration in both groups increased after off-clamping than that before CPB,however,it was lower in aminophylline group than that in control group.Concentration of cAMP in both groups after off-clamping was lower than that before CPB, however cAMP concentration in aminophylline group after off-clamping was higher than that in control group.Myocardial MPO activity and neutrophil count ratio after aortic off-clamping in aminophylline group was significantly lower than that in control group.Conclusion These results suggest that aminophylline is helpful to unprotection of myocardial and decreases the sequestration of neutrophil in myocardium.The mechanism of the protection may be related to the cAMP increased in myocardium.

Objective:To understand the reliability and validity of quality of life instruments for cancer patients-brain neoplasm [QLICP-BN (V1.0)], a self-developed quality of life scale for cancer patients.Methods:The quality of life of 112 patients with brain neoplasms in Yunnan Cancer Hospital from March 2012 to November 2013 was measured. The general data questionnaire and QLICP-BN (V1.0) were used for data collection.
