Objective:To investigate the individual serum tauro-conjugated bile acid concentration in patients with Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy(ICP) by high performance liquid chromatography-tendem mass spectro-metry(HPLC-MS/MS).Methods:Bile acids were extracted from serum samples of ICP,ICP with Diabetes Mellitus,ICP with Virus Hepatitis patients and normal pregnant women.Serum tauro-conjugated bile acids were measured by HPLC-MS/MS.Results:The serum levels of taurocholic acid(TCA),taurochenode-oxycholic acid(TCDCA) and taurodeoxycholic acid(TDCA) in the three groups of ICP,ICP with Diabetes Mellitus,and ICP with Virus Hepatitis were significantly higher than those of the control group(P

This article was aimed to analyze literatures on preventive treatment of disease in acupuncture and moxi-bustion in order to understand its status and development trend. Bibliometrics and statistics method in NoteExpress were used in the analysis of related literatures about preventive treatment of disease in acupuncture and moxibustion from 1981 to 2013, which were included in CNKI. The analysis and research were from aspects such as year distri-bution, keyword, journal distribution, author distribution, and fund distribution. The results showed that there were 537 articles in total from 1981 to 2013. The number of literatures was in an overall growing trend.“Zusanli”,“Inner Canon of Huangdi”,“sub-health”, and“clinical research”were high frequency keywords. The journal distribu-tion conformed to the Brad Ford’s law. The author distribution conformed to the Lotka’s law. The number of fund papers was also increased. It was concluded that research on preventive treatment of disease in acupuncture and moxibustion was still in the period of rapid development and had not reached maturity. The preventive treatment of disease in acupuncture and moxibustion had broad application prospects. However, the research still required to be strengthened.

This study was aimed to discuss possible problems in the data collection process of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) clinical medicine and to propose appropriate solutions. Based on analysis of clinical data features and data collection demands among 20 TCM clinical research bases, reference were made on key technologies of the Electronic Medical Records' integration and sharing, to propose the solution of TCM clinical data collection. The re-sults showed that proposing the metadata and data entities synchronized intersecting strategy, analyzing key points on this strategy, and proposing appropriate solutions, found the technical processes of the TCM clinical data collec-tion. It was concluded that the analysis and solution on key points of TCM clinical data collection provided the basis and the reference to data collection issues of TCM clinical research base.

This study was aimed to investigate structured approach of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) symptom information. Combining results of the Chinese Symptomatology Research and literature review, this study proposed a dual structure model of symptom. A total of 440 symptoms, which were screened out from the Chinese Terms in TCM and Pharmacy, were used for symptom structured attempt. The results showed that 9 symptoms and 9 attributes were identified, 201 main concept words of symptoms were extracted, and 420 symptoms with the dual structure model were structured. It was concluded that structural information model of TCM symptoms proposed in this study was feasible. However, the research methods and results are exploratory, which requires further verification.

The paper introduces the status of TCM symptoms information application,constructs the symptoms knowledge classification system by taking the TCM Diagnostics as the knowledge source,constructs the symptoms knowledge representation model based on the classification and coding technologies,and draws a conclusion that the data analysis result is consistent with the actual clinical situation based on collecting symptom data in the Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and correlation analysis using this model.

Objective To evaluate the accuracy of 99mTcO4- gastrointestinal imaging in the diagnosis of Meckel’s diverticulum in children. Methods The clinical data of 99mTcO4-imaging, surgery and pathological results of 95 children with gastrointestinal bleeding were retrospectively analyzed. Results Forty-four cases of 95 patients had positive ifnding of 99mTcO4-ectopic gastric mucous membrane imaging, and positive rate was 46.3%. In the positve cases 52.3%cases (23/44) were diagnosed of intestinal heterotopic gastric mucosa, 47.7%cases (21/44) were suspected of intestinal heterotopic gastric mucosa. The sex ratio (males to females) was 7.8:1. Thirty-seven positive cases underwent operation;among them, 35 cases were found to have Meckel’s diverticulum and 1 case had duplication of the digestive tract;Diverticulum lesion was not found in 1 case. The samples of 35 cases diagnosed surgically of Meckel’s diverticulum were examined by pathologic histology. All 35 cases were conifrmed as Meckel’s diverticulum and ectopic gastric mucosa epithelium, including 2 cases with ulcer formation, 1 case with small patches of pancreatic tissue, 1 case with ileocecal junction of suppurative enteritis and 1 case with chronic appendicitis. Conclusions 99mTcO4-radionuclide imaging technique is of high value for the non-invasive diagnosis of children’s Meckel’s diverticulum.

Objective To construct the recombinant protein AtlM ( rAtlM) of Staphylococcal au-reus through prokaryotic expression system and to investigate its antibacterial activity in vitro.Methods The specific primers were designed according to atlM gene sequence of Staphylococcal aureus recorded in Gen-Bank, and atlM gene was amplified by PCR from the Staphylococcal aureus strain (ATCC25923).The re-combinant plasmid pET-32а(+)/atlM was constructed and transformed into Transetta ( DE3 ) to express AtlM after induced by IPTG .The expressed protein AtlM was further analyzed by SDS-PAGE and purified by electroeluting of bag filter.The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of rAtlM to ATCC25923 and oxac-illin-resistant S.aureus strain were determined by the broth microdilution method .S.aureus ATCC25923 strain and oxacillin-resistant S.aureus strain (final concentration of 5×105 CFU/ml) were exposed to rAtlM (50 μg/ml) respectively to test its antibacterial activity in vitro.Results The recombinant protein AtlM was expressed and purified successfully with a relative molecular weight of 80 ×103 and a concentration of 1.25 mg/L.The MICs of rAtlM to ATCC25923 strain and oxacillin-resistant S.aureus strain were 8 μg/ml and 64 μg/ml, respectively.In vitro test showed that rAtlM had inhibitory effects on the growth of ATCC25923 strain and oxacillin-resistant S.aureus strain after 1 h of intervention (P=0.004 and P=0.026, respectively), which lasted to 5 h for ATCC25923 strain (P=0.012) and 3 h for oxacillin-resistant strain (P=0.001).Conclusion This study shows that rAtlM has a certain antibacterial effects on S.aureus ATCC25923 strain and oxacillin-resistant S.aureus strain, suggesting a possibility of serving as antimicrobial agent.

Objective To explore the effect of comorbidities on the surgical outcomes of elderly patients with hip fracture. Methods The Age,gender,weight,type of fracture,preoperative comorbidities and surgical outcomes of 117 patients aged 80 yr or over who undergoing hip fracture surgery in our hospital were recorded. Patients were divided into rehabilitation group and postoperative in-hospital death group ac-cording to surgical outcomes. The potential predictors of postoperative in-hospital death were identified by univariate model and were then entered into multiple Logistic regression analysis. Results Twenty three patients(19. 7%)had no comorbidity,94 patients(80. 3%)had one or more comorbidities. Ten patients(8. 5%)died in hospital after the operation. Predictors of postoperative in-hospital death were preoperative respiratory diseases and three or more comorbidities. Conclusion Surgical outcomes of elderly patients with hip fracture may be predicted by analysing preoperative comorbidities. Preoperative preparations must be sufficient in order to ensure successful operation.
