Objective To study the concentration alteration of serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in patients with primary and secondary glomerular diseases (GD), the effect of immune inhibitors on the concentration, and analyze the relationship between VEGF concentration and some clinical indexes. Methods Serum VEGF concentration of GD patients was determined by sandwich ABC-ELISA. Results All of the GD patients had higher level of serum VEGF than the control group. Of the 5 groups divided according to the clinical classification, patients of chronic glomerulonephritis(CGN) group, latent glomerulonephritis(LGN) group, Henoch-Schonlein purpura nephritis(HSPN) group and lupus nephritis(LN) group had higher serum VEGF level than the control group, respectively, with no difference among the above groups. The patients without taking immune inhibitors had higher serum VEGF level than the control group,while no difference was observed between the patients taking immune inhibitors and the control group.Patients with glomerulonephritis had a significantly lower serum VEGF level after receiving immunosuppression aggressive therapy than before. The serum VEGF level of nephrotic syndrome in nephrotic phase was higher than in remission stage. In membranous glomerulonephritis serum VEGF correlated positively with 24-hour proteinuria excretion. The serum VEGF level correlated positively with anti-dsDNA Ab titer and the concentration of ? globulins in LN. Conclusion Cytokine VEGF is involved in the pathogenesis of glomerulonephritis, and in the occurrence and progression of proteinuria. Immunosuppression therapy can inhibit the expression of VEGF. In LN patients, the serum VEGF level is related to LN activity.

To investigate the efficacy of the formula composed of the herbal drugs to soothe the liver, regulate qi, clarify the heart and eliminate vexation plus acupuncture for general anxiety disorder. Methods: Forty cases in the treatment group were treated with acupuncture plus herbal formula and 38 cases in the control group were treated with oral Doxepin. The assessment was conducted by Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and the Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale (TESS) before, during and after treatment. Results: The total effective rate was respectively 82.50% in the treatment group and 84.21% in the control group, with a significant difference in SAS assessment (P＜0.01) between the two groups before and after the treatment.There were no significant differences in the curative and remarkable effective rate, total effective rate and SAS assessment between the two groups (P＞0.05), but the side effect was higher in the control group than in the treatment group (P＜0.01). Conclusion: Acupuncture plus herbal formula can have a precise effective effect for extensive anxiety neurosis with mild toxic side effects.

Objective:To investigate the impact of social determinants of health on the inequality of child health and health care utilization.Methods:Information of 1 118 children aged 0 to 16 is extracted from the Chinese Family Panel Studies(CFPS)year 2008 cross sectional survey data for the analysis.Age standardized concentration curves and concentration indices are employed to assess the inequalities for incidence of low birth weight,self reported good health,adequate timing of breast feeding,health insurance coverage and incidence of catastrophic health expenditures for these children.Concentration indices are decomposed to four levels of social determinants of health(community,family,mother and individual level)to understand their contributions to health inequality respectively.Results:There are health inequalities existing in the investigated children,among which social factors at mother and family level have the largest contribution.Conclusion:To respond to the call by the WHO to achieve health equity through action on the social determinants of health in a generation,the inequalities of health and health care utilization amongst Chinese children should be put on the policy agenda,and social policies should intervene from multiple social dimensions,especially from family and mother levels.

Objective To observe clinical effects of compound Muniziqi granules combined with vitamin A acid cream, and analyze its mechanism of action.Methods 76 cases of patients with chloasma treated in our hospital in March 2010 to February 2014 were selected.They were divided into two groups according to random number table method, 38 cases in each group.Observation group was given compound Muniziqi granules( three times per day,orally) combined with vitamin A acid cream(smear once respectively each morning and evening),control group was taken vitamin C 0.3 g and vitamin E 0.2 g ( three times per day, orally ) comined with vitamin A acid cream ( smear once respectively each morning and evening ) treatment.Observed clinical effects, scores of lesion area and color, detected serum estrogen level in both groups by radioimmunoassay.

AIM: To investigate the preventive effect of tetrahydroxystilbene-glucoside (TSG) on experimental atherosclerosis rats. METHODS: Sixty one male rats were randomly divided into six groups. normal control; model control; TSG low dose(30 mg?kg-1?d-1);TSG middle dose(60 mg?kg-1?d-1);TSG high dose(120 mg?kg-1?d-1); simvastatin(2 mg?kg-1?d-1). The AS model of rats was made by feeding high grease food and injecting VitD3 .All the rats were fed for 12 weeks, blood samples were drawn from carotid artery of rats, the levels of TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C ,CRP,IL-6 and TNF-? in serum were measured with biochemical method. After blood samples were collected , the aorta samples were separated from the bodies, then they were placed 4% paraformaldehydea and were through Sudan Ⅳ and HE staining. STATA7.0 software was used to evaluate the differences between groups. RESULTS: Data of the study demonstrated that the levels of TC、TG、LDL-C、TNF-?、IL-6 and CRP were decreased remarkably, the level of HDL-C was increased by TSG 60, 120 mg?kg-1?d-1 group in the high cholesterol-fed rats, which showed a dose-dependent effect. The result of Sudan Ⅳ and HE staining suggested that the lipid deposits in aortic endothelium in TSG group were less than those in model group. CONCLUSION: TSG has preventive effect on the experimental atherosclerosis among the high cholesterol-fed rats. The anti-atherogenic effect of TSG seems to be closely related to regulating plasma lipid profile, and inhibiting inflammation.

Aim To investigate the effects of TSG on the content of nitric oxide and the expression of endo-thelium nitric oxide synthase in artery vessels of experimental atherosclerotic rats.Methods Sixty male rats were randomly divided into six groups.GroupⅠ,Normal control;GroupⅡ,Model control;Group Ⅲ,TSG low dose;Group Ⅳ,TSG middle dose;GroupⅤ,TSG high dose;group Ⅵ,Simvastatin.After 12 weeks,blood samples were collected from carotid arteries of rats,and the levels of NO in serum were measured.After that,the aortas were separated from the bodies and placed in-70℃,then the content of nitric oxide synthase was detected,and gene expression of eNOS and iNOSmRNA in artery vessels were respectively measured with RT-PCR method.STATA 8.0 software was adopted in date analysis..Results compared with those of the model group,the level of NO,the activity of NOS and the gene expression of eNOS were increased,and the gene expression of iNOS was reduced by simvastatin and TSG 30,60,120 mg?kg-1?d-1 in the high cholesterol-fed rats,which showed a dose-dependent effect.Conclusion TSG can enhance the expression of eNOS gene and reduce the expression of iNOS gene in aorta vessels of experimental atherosclerotic rats,which may be one of the anti-atherosclerosis mechanisms of TSG.
