The 30 patients in the treatment group were treated with Zhao's thunder-fire moxibustion while the other 30 patients in the control group were treated with oral medicine. Results: After one course of treatment, the total effective rate of treatment group was notably higher than that of the control group, showing statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion: The total effective rate of thunder-fire moxibustion on gastralgia of deficiency cold type was better than that of the traditional Chinese medicine in relieving epigastralgia.

Objective:To perfect and improve the quality standard of Malloti Apeltae Radix. Methods:Microscopic identification was used to identify the transverse section and the powder. The water-soluble and the fat-soluble components were identified by TLC. Rutin was used as the reference in the characteristic chromatogram established by HPLC to determine the relative retention time and rel-ative peak area of each characteristic absorption band. A SPOLAR C18 chromatographic column ( 250 mm × 4. 6 mm,5μm) was used with acetonitrile-0. 4% phosphate solution as the mobile phase with gradient elution, the detection wavelength was set at 328 nm, the flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1, and the temperature was 35℃. Results: The microscopic characteristics were obvious. The spots of TLC were round and clear with good repeatability. Five characteristic absorption bands were shown in the fingerprints with the relative retention time within ± 5% of reference value of rutin, and the relative area of peak 3 and peak 4 was not lower than 0. 23 and 0. 66, respectively. Conclusion:The method is convenient, fast and repeatable, and the result is accurate and reliable, which can be used to control the quality of Malloti Apeltae Radix effectively, and as the main index of the quality standard.

Purpose　To describe clinicopathological and immunophenotypic features of 10 cases of histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis (HNL). Methods　HE sections of 11 lymph node biopsies were re-examined. Immunophenotyping and detection of apoptotic DNA fragments were performed using S-P and TUNEL methods, respectively. Results　Five cases have been diagnosed as non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Histologically variable-sized discrete or confluent nodules were seen in the paracortex, especially in the interfollicular area, which were composed of proliferative pleomorphic histiocytes, transformed lymphocytes, and karyorrhectic debris. Immunohistochemistry revealed CD3+ and CD45RO+ for lymphocytes, Mac387+ and/or CD68+ for histiocytes, and no expression for CD15,CD30 and CD20 in the lesions. Conclusions　The presence of pleomorphic histiocytes, transformed T-cells, and karyorrhectic debris in the biopsy of lymph nodes, together with the absence of neutrophils support the diagnosis of HNL.

Object To study the protective effect of Rodobryum roseum (Hedw) Limpr. on acute myocardial ischemia. Methods Rat acute myocardial ischemia models were prepared by ligating their left coronary arteries. Changes of their S-T segment was observed on lead Ⅱ dynamic ECG. Degree of ischemia was assessed by the extent of S-T segment elevation. Lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), creative phosphokinase (CPK), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were determined at the same time. Results R. roseum can significantly alleviate S-T segment elevation, being most evident at the dose of 2 g/kg (P

This study investigated the variation of serum monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in patients with both diabetes mellitus (DM) and metabolic syndrome (MS). Based on the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) diagnostic criteria, 93 patients enrolled in this study were divided into four groups: normal control (NC), simple DM, simple MS, and DM plus MS (DM-MS) groups. The main measures included height, weight, waist circumference (WC), hip circumference, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), serum triglyceride (TG), HDL-ch, LDL-ch, and MCP-1. The results showed that the serum levels of MCP-1 in the DM-MS group were significantly increased as compared with those in the DM and MS groups (P<0.05), and the increase in the MCP-1 level in the DM group was much higher than in the MS group (P<0.05). The DM-MS group had the highest HOMA-IR levels, followed by MS, DM and NC groups (P<0.05). Correlation tests showed that the association of MCP-1 with age, HDL-ch, or LDL-ch was insignificant, whereas that of MCP-1 with body mass index (BMI), waist hip rate (WHR), WC, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), TG, and HOMA-IR was significantly positive. It was concluded that circulating MCP-1 was substantially increased in patients with both DM and MS as compared with that in the patients with DM or MS alone, and the central obese state may contribute to a more vicious proinflammatory condition and insulin resistance in patients with diabetes.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence and associated factors of suicide ideation among adolescent students in Guizhou Province, and to provide scientific evidence for developing strategy. Methods: Multistage stratified cluster sampling method was used to recruit 4 903 adolescents from 14 middle schools in Guizhou Province. China Youth Health Risk Behaviors Questionnaire was used and data were analyzed by using univariate analysis and Logistic regression analysis. Results: Totally 14.3%(703/4 903) middle school students had suicide ideation during the past 12month period, in which 13.2% were boys and 15.4% were girls, more girls were prone to suicide than boys(χ2=5.20, P<0.05); 13.7% junior students, 15.0% senior students, 14.5% Han ethnic students and 14.1% minority students suicide ideation, and the differences between grades and ethnic groups were of no statistical significance (P>0.05). The multivariates Logistic regression analysis showed that risk factors for suicidal ideation included being girl(OR=1.49),higher maternal education(college and above: OR=2.26), suffering psychological bullying over the past 30 days(OR=1.30), taking part in fighting for the past 12 months (OR=1.33), often feeling lonely(OR=1.86), sleeplessness(OR=1.38), deliberate selfinjury(OR=3.58),decreases of daily activities due to depression(OR=1.87), ideation of running away(OR=3.31), internet addiction(OR=1.37), walk violating regulations(OR=2.42), but occasional low mood from academic pressure(OR=0.73) was a protective factor for suicidal ideation(P<0.05). Conclusion Suicide ideation of middle school students is closely related to campus violence, adverse inner metal experience and unhealthy behavior pattern. All sectors of society should attach great importance and targeted measures to prevent suicide and protect the students.

ObjectiveTo study the biological characterization and the genetic background of circulating CA16 strains in mainland of China for the purpose of CA16 vaccine development in the future.MethodsCA16 strains were isolated from throat swabs of patients with hand-foot-mouth disease and identified by neutralization assay and RT-PCR.The genotype of these isolates were determined by sequence alignment and phylogenetic analysis of VP1 gene.The proliferation dynamics and the plaque morphology were observed when propagated in Vero cells.The pathogenicity of these CA16 isolates was evaluated by challenging newborn mice.ResultsIn this study,six CA16 circulating isolates,BJ-1-6 were obtained.The RT-PCR products were 150 bp amplified with the general enterovirus primers and 210 bp with CA16 primers respectively,which cannot be amplified by EV71 primers.Additionally,these isolates were identified to display some obvious proliferation dynamics and plaque morphology when propagated for 96 h in Vero cells.The diameter of plaques were about 1.5 to 2 mm for BJ-1,BJ-2,BJ-4,BJ-6,4-5 mm for BJ-3 and 3 mm for BJ5,the plaques were regular except BJ-3.All the six isolates can be neutralized by the convalescent serum of patient infected with CA16.The virus titer of different isolates propagated for five passages in Vero cells was 7.0LgCCID50/ml.The sequence alignment of VP1 gene demonstrated that the genotypes of BJ-2,BJ-4,BJ5 were C1 and BJ-1,BJ-3,B J-6 were C,3 comparatively.The genetic distance of the VPI gene from theseisolates suggested that they were highly genetic identity with the homology of 90％ in nucleotide and 99％ in dedicated amino acid respectively.However,a distinctive difference in pathogenic ability in neonatal mice was found that the suckling mice challenged with BJ-3 & BJ-5 were paralyzed 4-5 d and dead 6-7d postchallenge,compared with the control group without any abnormality in the during of 14 d.ConclusionThe circulating CA16 isolates in China have different biological characteristics,different pathogenic ability and similar genetic backgrounds,which is helpful for the development of a CA16 vaccine in the future.

Objective To assess the antiangiogenic role of recombinant human endostatin combined with chemoradiotherapy and the capacity,and to explore the early tumor response as measured by comparing the change of MRI perfusion parameter.Methods From May 2012 to March 2013,22 locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients who received recombinant human endostatin combined with chemoradiotherapy following induction chemotherapy,were included in the prospective study group.The other 25 patients,who received chemoradiotherapy following induction chemotherapy alone in the same period,were included in the control group.The perfusion parameters including blood volume(BV),blood flux(BF),mean transit time (MTT) were obtained by carrying out MR perfusion scanning at 3 time points:before induction chemotherapy,after induction chemotherapy,the end of concurrent chemoradiotherapy.Results Compared with before induction chemotherapy,the perfusion parameters including BV and BF obviously decreased in the study group (F =3.05,3.85,P ＜ 0.05).The parameter of MTT had no obviously change in the study group(P ＞0.05).In the control group,the change of BV,BF and MTT of nasopharyngeal lesions area during the treatment showed no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).To make comparison between the two groups,at the end of concurrent chemoradiotherapy,BF of nasopharyngeal lesions area in the study group was 0.72 ± 0.56 and 1.92 ± 1.26 in the control group,the former showing significantly declined results (t =-3.056,P =0.012).Conclusions Recombinant human endostatin might be a good indicator of local tumor microvascular changes and the treatment-related toxicity could be tolerated.Magnetic resonance perfusion imaging maybe assessed the capacity of anti-angiogenesis therapy to induce early tumor response.Clinical trial registration Chinese clinical trial registry,ChiCRTONRC-12002394.

OBJECTIVETo study the immunophenotype and differential diagnosis of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL).

METHODFifty six cases originally diagnosed as HL were re-evaluated according to lymphoma classification of WHO 2000 on paraffin sections using SP immunohistochemistry.

RESULTSAmong the 56 cases, 47 met the WHO criteria for HL, 8 were NHL and 1 metastatic tumor. Of the 47 HL cases, 2 were nodular lymphocyte predominant HL (NLPHL), 43 classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (CHL) and 2 unclassified HL, and of the 8 cases reclassified as NHL, 6 were T-cell rich B-cell lymphoma (TCRBCL) and 2 anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). In NLPHL cases, L&H cells were CD(20)(+), CD(15)(-) and CD(30)(-); CD(57)(+) cells and small B-lymphocytes predominated the background infiltration. Diagnostic R-S cells and other tumor cells in 43 cases of CHL were positive for CD(30) (100%), CD(15) (81%) and CD(20) (7%). Six cases of TCRBCL were negative for CD(15) and CD(30). Two cases of ALCL were positive for CD(30), ALK-1 and CD(3), and negative for CD(15) and CD(20). The reactive inflammatory infiltration in CHL and TCRBCL was rich in TIA-1 positive cytotoxic lymphocytes, and CD(57)(+) cells were rarely encountered.

CONCLUSIONCombining the immunophenotype of tumor cells and background cells with morphologic criteria are more helpful for classification of HL, and discrimination between NLPHL, CHL and TCRBCL.
