OBJECTIVE:To observe the therapeutic effect of Yindanxinnaotong Soft Capsules combined with three chemicals for coronary disease angina pectoris. METHODS:91 cases which were up to the diagnosis standard were randomly divided into control group(n=44) and treatment group(n=47) . Control groups were treated with the routine isosorbide 5-mononitrate sustained release tablets(10～20 mg,bid) ,bisoprolol fumarate tablets(5～10 mg,qd) ;amlodipine besylate tablets(5 mg,qd) . Treatment group were additionally treated with 2 to 4 Yindanxinnaotong Soft Capsules,tid,p.o,with treating course of 30 days. RESULTS:The total efficacy rate of angina pectoris and the electrocardiogram were 80.85% and 74.47% for treatment group while 61.36% and 56.82% for control group. There was significant difference between two groups(P

OBJECTIVE To analyze the changes in clinical behaviors in the recent 10 years among patients with diabetes combined infection,including incidence of diabetic′s concurrent infections, the infective sites,the pathogen spectrum,the danger of infections and so on,we could do better in preventing and curing the diabetic′s concurrent infections.METHODS Using retrospective methods,the diabetic patients with concurrent infection were divided into two groups,712 patients in 1995-1999 as the first group,986 patients in 2000-2005 as the second group,were respectively calculated and compared their average age,sex distribution,the average course of diseases,the fasting blood sugar,glycosylated hemoglobin,the incidence of infection,and the distribution in body systems.RESULTS The diabetic patients′ average course in the second group(10.82?9.83 years) prolonged a little than the first(P

Objective To observe the expression level of stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) in bone marrow stromal cells of acute leukemia at initial diagnosis and complete remission. Method Bone marrow stromal cells were isolated and cultured from five patients of acute leukemia at the time of initial diagnosis (Group A), five patients of acute leukemia at complete remission (Group B), and five healthy individuals or persons with no serious hematopathy (Group C). The content of SDF-1 protein in cultured supernatants was determined with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results The contents of SDF-1 protein in supernatants of groups A, B and C were 2 941?374, 2 891?305 and 1 583?157pg/ml, respectively. The contents in both group A and group B were significantly higher than that in group C. Conclusion The SDF-1 expression level in acute leukemia bone marrow stromal cells was elevated at initial diagnosis, and the abnormality persisted until the stage of complete remission.

Objective To study the effect of dipsacus on the expression of β-amyloid in parietal cortex and hippocampus of Alzheimer's disease model rats.Methods A total of 40 rats were randomly divided into control group,model group,dipsacus group and vitamin E group (n=10,each)General situation of rats was observed after 42 days of dipsacus treatment.The ability of learning and memory in rats was tested by Morris water maze.The content of β-amyloid in parietal cortex and hippocampus of each group rats were measured using double antibody sandwich method.Results Model group compared with control group showed that general conditions deteriorated markedly;escaping delitescence was prolonged significantly(P＜0.01) ; the activity time on the former platform quadrant reduced significantly (t=4.6261,P=0.0002) ; the number of crossing the former platform reduced significantly (t=6.5335,P=0.0000) ; the content of Aβ in parietal cortex and hippocampus increased significantly (t=4.2812,P=0.0004) (t=5.2499,P=0.0001).Dipsacus group and vitamin E group compared with model group showed that general condition improved significantly;escape latency was shortened significantly (P＜ 0.01); the activity time on the former platform quadrant increased significantly [(45.76±12.15) s,(48.70±10.25) s and (30.20±10.48) s (t=3.0666,3.9908,P=0.0066,0.0009)]; the number of crossing the former platform increased significantly [(3.02±1.19) t/2min,(3.56±0.85) t/2min and (1.43 ± 1.24) t/2min (t=2.9256,4.4804,P=0.0090,0.0003)]; the content of Aβ in parietal cortex and hippocampus reduced significantly in parietal cortex [(280.37-51.40) pg/g,(263.14 ± 45.52) pg/g versus (337.46 ±70.51) pg/g (t=2.1164,2.8003,P=0.0485,0.0118)],in hippocampus [(295.60±67.58)pg/g,(274.38±57.56)pg/g versus (388.26±83.72)pg/g(t=2.9256,4.4804,P=0.0090,0.0003)].Conclusions Dipsacus can reduce expression of Aβ in brain areas related to general intelligence that may have anti-Alzheimer's disease action.The active ingredients of dipsacus may be natural vitamin E.

Objective To evaluate MRI in diagnosing brachial plexus preganglionic injury.Methods Twenty cases with brachial plexus preganglionic injury underwent M R scanning before operation.MR imaging was obtained by GE Signa EXCITE 1.5 T scanner.The scanning sequences included SE T1 WI,FSE T2 WI,T2 WI STIR and 3D Fast imaging employing steady state with phase cycled(3D-FIESTA-c).All the patients had exploration of the supraclavicular plexus and electrophysiology examination. And the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of MRI in diagnosing preganglionic brachial plexus iniury were calculated with the standards of surgical and EMG results.Results Among the 73 pairs of i,jured roots.MR imaging detected the abnormalities in 63 pairs.The accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of MRI in diagnosing preganglionic brachial plexus injury were 86.5/(83/96),86.3/(63/73).87.0/(20/23),respectively.The direct signs of brachial plexus preganglionic injury included (1) lack or mutilation of netwe root in 54 pairs (85.7/),(2)coarsening,bending,stiff course and unable to be traced to the intervertebral foramen continuously in 9 pairs (14.3/).The indirect signs included (1)cystic cerebrospinal fluid gathering in the vertebral canal,posttraumatic spinal meningocele in 46 pairs (73.0/),(2)abnormal shape of nerve sleeve in 13 pairs(20.6/),(3)displacement and deformity of spinal cord in 50 pairs(79.4/),(4)abnormal signal of paravertebral muscles in 1 9 patients.Conclusion MRI can distinctly show the nerve rootlets within the vertebral canal,so it is helpful in making a correct diagnosis of brachial plexus preganglionic injuries.

Objective To investigate whether HER-2/neu oneogene amplification exists in 08- teosarcomas. Methods Fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH)and DNA probes for HER-2/neu and centromere 17 were used to examine the HER-2/neu gene amplification in samples taken from 23 patients with osteosarcoma. Results None of the 23 osteosarcoma samples showed the HER-2/neu gene amplification.Condusion Since HER-2/neu gene amplification is rare in osteosarcomas, HER-2/neu target medicine should not be applied to patients with osteosarcoma
