Persicae Ramulus decoction, as the first prescription in Treatise on febrile Diseases, has been recommended by physicians of successive generations. It is also the general prescription for harmonizing yingfen and weifen, yin and yang, qi and blood. Although it only consists of five herbal medicines, it has a wider range of application and more categorized formulas than other prescriptions. Though Persicae Ramulus decoction was originally formulated to treat taiyang apoplexy, it has functions beyond the treatment of exopathic diseases. This formula is also effective in treating internal diseases, surgical diseases, gynecologic diseases, paediatric diseases, etc. KE Yun-bo praised it as the No. 1 formula among ZHANG Zhong-jin's formulas as well as the general prescription for harmonizing Yin and Yang, yingfen and weifen, resolving fleshy exterior and inducing perspiration. Professor SHI Xin-de has been expert at treating intractable diseases by using Persicae Ramulus-associated prescriptions, such as Xiaojianzhong decoction and Baohe pill for children's chronic eczema, Persicae Ramulus and Puerariae Lobatae Radix decoction and Yupingfeng powder for chronic nephritis, and Persicae Ramulus and Longgu Muli decoction for insomnia. Instead of being restricted to Chinese or Western disease names, he prescribed appropriate formulas according to syndromes, thereby achieving a good efficacy.

Ion channels are membrane proteins that are found in a number of viruses and which are of crucial physiological importance in the viral life cycle.They have one common feature in that their action mode involves a change of electrochemical or proton gradient across the bilayer lipid membrane which modulates viral or cellular activity.We will discuss a group of viral channel proteins that belong to the viroproin family,and which participate in a number of viral functions including promoting the release of viral particles from cells.Blocking these channel-forming proteins may be"lethal",which can be a suitable and potential therapeutic strategy.In this review we discuss seven ion channels of viruses which can lead serious infections in human beings: M2 of influenza A,NB and BM2 of influenza B,CM2 of influenza C,Vpu of HIV-1,p7 of HCV and 2B of picornaviruses.

Objective:To discuss the application of tracer methodology in the management of medical high-value consumables, find out the problems and existing risks, and propose possible solutions. Methods: The system tracing based on high-value consumables and the case tracing based on patient were used to track and check the medical high-value consumables in hospital. The inspectors summarized and discussed the issues as well as the possible risks after inspection, to develop the appropriate improvements.Results: There were many problems that were found in the management of medical high-value consumables in this tracing program, of which the main aspects were the species introduction, the implementation of procurement and relative departments, and the organization and leadership among departments.Conclusion:The management of medical high-value consumables is an important part of hospital management, and the tracer methodology provides an effective guarantee for the medical equipment management in hospital.

Objective To understand drug resistance in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS)after antiretroviral therapy(ART).Methods Articles about drug resistance in HIV/AIDS patients after ART were retrieved from Wangfang data,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),and PubMed. Meta analysis were performed.Results 15 articles (1 English and 14 Chinese) were extracted,quality score of 3,4,and 8 articles was 6,7,and 8 respectively. Heterogeneity of the included stud-ies showed the difference was significant (Q= 45.98,P<0.001),there was heterogeneity,random-effects models was conducted for Meta analysis,which revealed that the overall drug resistance rate in HIV/AIDS patients in China was 4% (4% -5% );Begg's test showed that P= 0.012,there was publication bias. After articles were excluded through sensitivity analysis,the combined effect was still 4% (4% -5% ).Conclusion The overall drug resistance rate in Chinese HIV/AIDS patients after ART is not high.

Objectives To evaluate the effects of“the Seven Acupoints of the Cranial Base”(SACB) in improving quality of life(QOL)of patients with PD. Methods The study Subjects were seventy(70)patients with a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease. The Subjects were divided into two groups, i.e. acupuncture group and drug group.The former was treated by SACB every two days,while the latter took Levodopa and Benserazide Tablet250mg tid. The subjects all received treatment for 6 months. PDQ-39,UPDRSⅡand PDSS were adopted to measure quality of life at 4 time points. Results The total effective rate of the treatment group was 85.71%, the control group was 71.43%. And there was a statistical difference of level distribution between the two groups(P<0.01). The total score of PDQ-39, UPDRSⅡ and PDSS of patients in the treatment group [(20.41± 11.64), (9.09±5.02), (126.31±8.37)]were significantly improved compared with the control group[(27.48± 8.69), (10.29±4.93), (109.94±8.11), P<0.01]. The 5 dimension score of PDQ-39, and the 4 single item score of UPDRSⅡ in the treatment group[(8.60±5.07), (3.20±2.08), (2.34±1.73), (1.20±1.68), (1.63±1.96),(1.31±0.68), (0.77±0.94), (0.91±0.74), (0.77±0.65)]were significantly improved compared with the control group[(11.69±4.11), (5.09±3.72), (5.37±1.99), (2.86±2.33), (2.74±2.08), (1.74±0.98), (1.31±0.93), (1.43±0.78), (1.20±0.68), P<0.01 or 0.05]. Conclusion SACB can markedly and multi-dimensionally improve the QOL of patients with PD and has a higher efficacy than Levodopa and Benserazide Tablet.

Objective To evaluate the value of MSCT three-dimensional reconstruction postprocessing technique for operation of Scoliosis Orthomorphia. Methods 18 cases of scoliosis were performed with MSCT to be reconstructed by MPR, VRT. The three-dimensional reconstruction images displayed traverse, coronal and sagittal plane and measures data. Results By measuring data of 18 cases by means of the methods above, all parameters were accurate. Conclusion The three-dimensional reconstruction of MSCT makes up the disadvantages of X-ray. Any retrospective reconstruction can be done to the collected data. So patients can avoid being projected repeatedly and radiation can be reduced. Various parameters of the vertebrae concerning spine, spinal canal and the pedicle plane can be offered, providing reliable reference for pre-operations.

Objective To measure the volume of liver, the volume of mass of liver and the ratio of mass/righe lobe with the Volume Evaluation of MSCT, as a reference of liver function after resection of liver mass. Methods All cases were scanned and reconstructed with MSCT,and the volume of right liver, the volume of mass of right liver and its ratio were obtained with Volume Evaluation of MSCT. Results The method of measuring volume of liver with Volume Evaluation is simple and accurate. Conclusion It can be a important reference before and after resection of liver mass.

Objective To establish a GC-MS method for the analysis of the chemical components of essential oil from Fructus Ponciri Trifoliatae Immaturi.Methods The essential oil was extracted by steam distilyation ,then separated by capillary gas chromatography. The components from essential oil were identified by comparing with related standard chromatogram and their amount were determined by normalization method.Results Twenty-one components have been identified from Folium Fructus Ponciri Trifoliatae Immaturi and their amount accounted 99.04 %of total essential oil. The main components are limonene (55.68 %),?-myrcene(21.96 %),?-Pinene(5.17 %),cis-caryophyllene(4.61 %)and ?-Ocimene (1.71 %).Conclusion This method is reliable and effective and can be applied to analyze the essential oil components extracted from Fructus Ponciri Trifoliatae Immaturi.
