China Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Pharmacy 2005;0(07):-
TCM is unique and e ective on senile dementia in both theory and practice;therefore it is signi cant to generalize TCM understanding and experience on senile dementia for speci c therapy to reduce patients' cognition impairment and enhance their living quality.Sorting of TCM understanding on senile dementia pathogenesis and causes,it was clear that seniledementia was often seen in aging people characterized by de ciency in origin and excess in super ciality.Its de ciency in origin was de ciency of kidney essence,marrow and lucid yang failing to ascend.The origin aspect of senile dementia was believed to be the insu ciency of kidney.The de ciency of ve zang-organs was closely related to it.While the super ciality aspect was thought to be turbid phlegm and stagnant blood blocking brain and cerebral meridian with ve zang-organs all concerned.On one hand,the de ciency of kidney assisted by the de ciency of ve zang-organs could result in phlegm and blood stasis,that is to say excess resulted from de ciency.On the other hand,the stagnation of phlegm and blood stasis could block the generation,transformation and transportation of qi,blood and body uid,which would further consume the essence of the body.This is so-called de ciency transformed from excess.The above two aspects a ected each other and causing lingering pathogenic factors.

Objective To investigate the effect of sufentanil on norepinephrine (NE)-induced contraction of thoracic aorta isolated from rats with spontaneous hypertension (SH) .Methods Eight male rats with SH weighing 250-300 g were used in this study. The rats were decapitated and their thoracic aortas were isolated and cut into rings 2-3 mm in length. The aorta rings were suspended for isometric tension recording. The aortic rings obtained from SH rats were divided into 4 groups ( n = 8 each) : control group and 3 sufentanil groups. The contraction of aortic rings in response to NE in the absence (control) and presence of 3 concentrations of sufentanil 7 × 10-11 ,2 × 10-10 and 1 × 10-9 mol/L was recorded. Results The amplitude of NE-induced contraction of thoracic aorta was significantly greater in 3 sufentanil groups than in control group. Sufentanil significantly inhibited the NE-induced aortic contration in proportion to concentration. Conclusion Sufentanil can inhibit NE-induced contraction of thoracic aorta isolated from rats with SH in a concentration-dependent manner.

Objective To investigate the prognostic value of CD44V6, MMP-9, p57kip2 and hCG in diagnosis differential diagnosis and malignant transformation of hydatidiform mole. Methods The expressions of CD44V6 MMP-9 and p57kip2 was detected by SP method and the serum hCG was detected with CLIA method in 55 cases of hydatidiform mole, 20 cases of abortion villi and 10 cases of normal villi, and the value of CD44V6, MMP-9, p57kip2 and hCG in diagnosis differential diagnosis and malignant transformation of hydatidiform mole was analyzed. Results There were 9 cases malignant transforming hydatidiform mole and 44 cases of non-malignant transforming hydatidiform mole(20 cases of complete hydatidiform mole, 26 cases of partial hydatidiform mole). The expression of CD44V6 MMP-9 and p57kip2 of malignant transforming mole was significantly higher than that of non-malignant transforming group (77.8 % vs 30.4 %, 77.8 % vs 34.8 %, 11.1 % vs 58.7 %) (P <0.05) and the expression difference of p57kip2 in complete mole and partial mole group (5.0 % vs 100.0 %) was statistically significant (P <0.05). HCG remained positive in 4 cases of hydatidiform mole and dropping and then rised in 5 cases. The sensitivity of p57kip2 in the diagnosis of partial hydatidiform mole was 100.0 %, the specificity was 95.0 %, the negative prediction was 100.0 %. The sensitivity of CD44V6 in the diagnosis of malignant hydatidiform mole was 77.8 %, specificity was 69.6 %, negative prediction was 94.1 %;The sensitivity of MMP-9 was 77.8 %, specificity was 65.2 %, negative prediction was 93.8 %. The sensitivity of the two combined detection (CD44V6 and MMP-9) was 88.9 %, negative prediction was 96.3 %. The sensitivity of combined detection (CD44V6, MMP-9 and hCG) was higher than any of them. Conclusion p57kip2 is an important marker in differential diagnosis of hydatidiform mole. CD44V6, MMP-9 play important roles in the process of transformation of hydatidiform mole. The combined detection of CD44V6, MMP-9, p57kip2 and hCG can help to diagnosis and differential diagnosis and predict biological behaviors and prognosis of hydatidiform mole.
