Objective To investigate the relationship between serum uric acid level and the severity of pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) in pregnant women with hypertension.MethodsFrom January 2016 to July 2016 in our hospital for treatment of 100 cases of patients with pregnancy induced hypertension, as PIH group, divided into severe hypertension group (33 cases), moderate PIH group (33 cases) and mild PIH group (34 cases), then select 100 cases of normal pregnant women normal pregnancy group.The serum uric acid levels were measured and the results were analyzed.ResultsThe average serum uric acid levels in PIH group (359.75+89.23) mol/L was significantly higher than the control group (188.24+54.54) mol/L in PIH group, the average level of serum uric acid in severe, moderate and mild degree is decreasing, respectively (449.32+81.11), (352.89+76.41), (288.76+59.58) mol/L, a statistically significant difference between the groups (P<0.05).ConclusionThe detection of serum uric acid level in pregnant women can effectively determine the degree of pregnancy induced hypertension in pregnant.

Objective: To introduce recent research progress in anti-diarrhea with single Chinese herb and its effective compo-nents. Methods:The references on anti-diarrhea with single Chinese herb and its effective components in recent years were reviewed and analyzed. Results:The researches on anti-diarrhea activity and possible mechanism of single Chinese herbs, such as Terminalia chebula Retz, Fructus mume, Radix Puerariae and Pulsatilla chinensis ( Bunge) Regel, were reviewed. Conclusion: At present, the researches on anti-diarrhoea with single Chinese herb and its effective components have made some progress, while further and wider researches are still needed to explore the underlying mechanisms.

Overnutrition during the early postnatal life,a critical time window for growth and development,may induce metabolic syndrome later in life,including overweight/obesity and insulin resistance.The important target organs of insulin,such as liver,adipose tissue,skeletal muscle,and central nervous systems show insulin resistance.The involved mechanisms include abnormality of insulin signal pathway,increment of free fatty acid and some adipocytokines,oxidative stress,maladjustment of orexigenic and anorexigenic neuron,modifications of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal glucocorticoid axis as well as epigenetic,etc.Hence,overnutrition should be avoided during the early postnatal life,so as to decrease the risk of developing long-term insulin resistance.

Objective To explore a simple, effective and stable method for the isolation and purification of Kupffer cells from rat liver, enabling further study on the structure and function of these cells in vitro. Methods After laparotomy, a catheter was inserted into the portal vein and secured with artery clamp. Then, the rat liver was perfused and digested with solution Ⅰ and solution Ⅱ containing 0.05% collagenase Ⅳ respectively. The cell suspension was centrifuged with isopycnic sedimentation in a two-step Percoll gradient to harvest Kupffer cells. The isolated Kupffer cells were purified by selective adherence after 30 min of cultivation, and identified by evaluation of phagocytosis of India ink and peroxidase staining with DAB through light and electron microscopy. Results It was verified that the viability of isolated Kupfffer cells was more than 90% through Trypan blue staining. Those Kupffer cells could attach to plastic quickly and phagocytose ink, and had the appearance of "fried eggs" in positive peroxidase staining with a purity of 95%. Under the light microscopy, the appearance of newly isolated Kupffer cells was round with uniform shape and size. After two days of culture, Kupffer cells appeared to distend with irregular or stellate shape. The typical features were observed in the transmission electron micrographs. There were numerous pseudopods and occasional cup-like indentations in the cell membrane of Kupffer cells. The cytoplasm contained numerous types of lysosomes and other phagocytotic vesicles. Conclusion The method for isolating and culturing Kupffer cells in this study is effective and stable, and the biological characters are preserved in the cultured cells.

The research was carried out to establish HPLC fingerprints of Tibetan medicinal herb "Songdi" (Saxifraga umbellulata var. pectinata), and to provide reference for identification an quality control of it. It was performed on an Amethyst-C18-P (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm) column with the mobile phase of methanol-0.4% formic acid in a linear gradient mode at a flow rate of 1.0 mL x min(-1). The column temperature was 30 degrees C, and the detection wavelength was set at 254 nm. The software for chromatographic fingerprint was applied to analyse the pattern analysis, the common peaks and similarity. Cluster analysis was done based on the common peaks data of 33 samples from different plant species and sources by SPSS software. Ten common chromatographic peaks were identified by fingerprint, showing a low similarity in constituent and variety. Flavonoids and saponins were the principal components. The number and area of peaks were affected by the collection sources and method. The high similarity are showed by the samples derived from the same area with high accuracy and high purity. The method is so simple, exclusive, stable and high repeatable that it can provide reference for identification and quality assessment of "Songdi" (S. umbellulata var. pectinata).

Although the key role of External Quality Assessment schemes ( EQAS ) in the standardization/harmonization process has been clear from the start, it has never been totally implemented, mainly due to the lack of commutable materials, the difficulty target values and acceptable range.EQAS may also improve standardization/harmonization by proposing rules for the post-examination phase.Improvements in standardization and harmonization will really be able to work under the joint efforts of stakeholders.

To improve the management level of patients' information of schistosomiasis control stations in Nanchang City,the B/S three-layer architecture and ASP+SQL technology were applied to formulate the WEB-based management system of chronic schistosomiasis patients' information,so as to achieve the information sharing of chronic schistosomiasis among schistosomiasis control stations.

Objective To explore the feasibility and effect of intervention therapy for patients subclavian steal syndrome.MethodsThe data of 35 patients with subclavian artery steal syndrome in neurology department of our hospital from October 2014 to March 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients treated with pecutaneous transtuminl angioplasty and stenting.The degree of vascular stenosis was measured by digital subtraction angiography, the inter-arm blood pressure was tested by mercury sphygmomanometer.And the clinical manifestations before and after surgery were compared.All patients were followed up for 1 to 12 months,the clinical manifestations,blood flow and vascular stenosis degree in patients were observed.Results All patients were finished pecutaneous transtuminl angioplasty and stenting successfully,7 patients with serious vascular stenosis treated with percutaneous intravascular balloon dilatation at first.The average artery stenosis before operation was(74.73±10.42)%,while it decreased to(8.60+3.16)% after surgery,which were measured by DSA,the difference was significant(P<0.01).The result from mercury sphygmomanometer showed that the inter-arm blood pressure from preoperative(44.43±10.12)mmHg to postoperative (10.09+4.80)mmHg (2~7 days),systolic blood pressure differential minified significantly,the difference was significant(P<0.01).All patients were followed up for 1 to 12 months,support forms of 34 cases were in good conditions without new narrow,1 case appeared narrow in postoperative 7 months,then recovered after reoperation;symptoms of 28 cases significantly improved or disappeared,5 cases partly alleviated,2 cases had recurrence,no serious complications such as thrombosis and severe infarction occurred.Conclusion The pecutaneous transtuminl angioplasty and stenting is stable,high successful and low short-term recurrence rate for subclavian steal syndrome,which is good to alleviate vascular stenosis,reduce interrm blood pressure difference and improve clinical manifestation.
