1.Meta-Analysis on Clinical Efficacy of Integrated Treatment of Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine on Immune Thrombocytopenia
Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2014;(3):5-9
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of integration of traditional Chinese and western medicine (ITWM) or pure western medicine on the patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on ITWM treatment of ITP were searched in PubMed, EMBASE, Wanfang database, CBMDisc, CNKI and VIP. Quality of the RCTs was evaluated strictly, and statistical analysis was performed with Cochrane Collaboration’s RevMan5.1.7 software. Results Twenty-two trials involving 1527 patients were included. The results of Meta-analysis showed that the ITWM treatment of ITP significantly improved the total effective rate [RR=1.23, 95%CI (1.17, 1.29), P<0.000 01] compared with that of pure western medicine treatment. Funnel plot showed that publication bias was small. Meanwhile, peripheral platelet count and the number of megakaryocyte which can generate platelet in bone marrow increased, obvious advantage was showed in long-term effect, and adverse reactions were reduced with ITWM treatment in ITP patients. Conclusion The existed limited evidences suggest that ITWM treatment of ITP can significantly improve clinical efficacy. The quantity and quality of research literature were limited, and well-designed randomized double-blind controlled trials with large sample and multi-centers are required for a more reliable conclusion.

ObjectiveTo examines the difference in illusion of transparency between high and low selfmonitoring individuals in different situations in reference to the experimental paradigm ofdrink recognition by Gilovich(1998 ).MethodsHigh and low self-monitoring individuals (the subjects) were selected by Snyder's Self-Monitoring Scale.Two situations were designed to study the illusion of transparency.One was acquaintance situation,and the other was the stranger situation.Results 1.The differences among the high and low selfmonitoring individuals had influence on the illusion of transparency.In low self-monitoring individuals there was a stronger illusion of transparency being demonstrated among both acquaintance situation (4.53 ± 2.12,2.53 ±2.45; t (16) =4.41,P<0.05) and stranger situation (4.33 ±2.93,3.11 ±2.89; t (17) =2.11,P=0.05),while in high self-monitoring individuals,there were no illusion of transparency in either situations ( t (12) =0.38,P > 0.05 ; t (22) =1.09,P> 0.05 ).2.The level of illusion of transparency in low self-monitoring group among acquaintance situation (2.00 ± 2.17) was higher than high self-monitoring group(0.23 ± 1.87 ),t (28) =2.40,P <0.05 ),while there was no difference between two groups in stranger situation (1.22 ±2.46,0.74 ±3.25,t (39) =0.52,P >0.05).ConclusinThe differences among the high and low self-monitoring individuals have inlluence on the illusion of transparency.The interactive situations have an influence on the level of illusion of transparency.

Objective: To study the effect of GLP-Ⅱ on residual bowel absorption of glucose in a rat model of short bowel syndrome. Methods: Rats undertaken 75% small bowel resection were randomly assigned to SB group and SB/GLP-Ⅱ group. Another group of weight-matched normal rats(Normal) received normal diet ad libitum was used as control group for SB group. All rats were allowed normal chow on the 1st postoperative day(POD). On the POD6,the intestinal glucose absorption data per unit length as well as per unit weight of ileum were measured by in vivo circulatory perfusion experiment. Results: Length of perfused ileum in 3 groups of rats were not significantly different. Wet weight to length ratio of perfused ileum in SB group was significantly higher than that of normal group,but significantly lower than that of SB/GLP-Ⅱ group. 45min glucose absorption of per cm ileum in SB/GLP-Ⅱ group was significantly higher than that of SB group(P0.05). Conclusions: In a rat model of SBS, GLP-Ⅱ can enhance the intestinal glucose absorption measured as per unit length of resudial ileum and GLP-Ⅱ manifests a trend to increase the glucose absorption measured as per unit wet weight of resudial ileum.

Objective To study the effect of the extract of total flavonoids of Chrysanthemum indicum(TFC) on adjuvant arthritis(AA) synoviocytes.Methods Totally 0.1ml of the complete Freund's adjuvant was subcutaneously injected into the right hind feet pads of 20 SD rats.24 days after immunity synoviocytes in the knee joint were treated with TFC.Cell morphology was examined with electron microscopy.Protein level of caspase-3 cleaved fragments was analyzed by Western blotting.The annexin V stain assay was applied to explore the effect of caspase-3 inhibitor on the amelioration in synovial cells apoptosis of AA rats.Results Typical morphology and biochemical feature of apoptosis in synovial cells of AA rats were observed with TFC.The protein level of caspase-3 cleaved fragments increased obviously and was related with the concentration of TFC in synovial cells of AA rats.The apoptotic cells positively stained with annexin V were markedly reduced by caspase-3 inhibitor.Conclusion TFC can induce apoptosis in AA rats synoviocytes,which may achieve therapeutical effects in AA.The activation of caspase-3 may be one of the main causations.

Objective To investigate the effects of δ-opioid receptor agonist DADLE (D-Ala2-D-Leu5-enkephalin) on the hemodynamics and oxygen metabolism in rats with sepsis. Methods Eighty healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n = 20 each) : sham operation group (group S), sepsis group (group SEP) ,DADLE, group and DADLE2, group. Sepsis was induced by cecum ligation and puncture (CLP) in SEP, DADLE,and DADLE2 groups. In DADLE1 and DADLE2 groups, 0.5 mg/ml DADLE 10 mg/kg was injected intraperitoneally (IP) 0.5 h before CLP and immediately after CLP respectively. Mean arterial pressure (MAP), left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP) and ± dp/dtmax were recorded at 0, 2, 4 and 6 h after CLP (T1-4). Blood samples from left common carotid artery and right external jugular vein were collected at T4 for blood gas analysis. The cardiac index (CI), O2 delivery (DO2), O2 consumption (VO2) and O2 extraction rate (ERO2) were calculated.Results Compared with group S, MAP and LVSP were significantly increased at T2, while decreased at T3,4, and ± dp/dtmax was significantly increased in group SEP, MAP was significantly increased at T2, while decreased at T3,4, LVSP was significantly increased at T2,3, while decreased at T4 , and ± dp/dtmax was significantly increased in DADLE, and DADLE2 groups, and CI, DO2 and VO2 were significantly decreased and ERO2 was increased in SEP, DADLE, and DADLE2 groups (P<0.05). Compared with group SEP, MAP, LVSP and ± dp/dtmax at T3,4 and CI, DO2 and VO2 were significantly increased, while ERO2 was significantly decreased in DADLE1 and DADLE2 groups (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the parameters mentioned above between DADLE1 and DADLE2 groups ( P > 0.05). Conclusion δ-opioid receptor agonist DADLE can obviously improve the hemodynamics and oxygen metabolism in septic rats.
