1.Progress on effect and mechanism of Danhong injection in treatment of coronary heart disease
Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2015;(9):186-188
Coronary heart disease is a kind of serious heart disease, which is caused by the disease of the coronary artery, which leads to the stenosis or obstruction of the coronary vessels.Danhong injection is made of Salvia miltiorrhiza, safflower extract, chemical composition of two drugs is the key to play a role in treatment.Numerous clinical studies show that the red injection can effectively expand the coronary artery, increase the coronary blood flow, relieve the clinical symptoms of coronary heart disease, improve the ECG and improve the clinical effect.In this paper, the pharmacological properties, clinical research and treatment of CHD were reviewed,In this paper, the pharmacological properties, clinical research and treatment of CHD are reviewed, to provide theoretical basis for the treatment of CHD molecular mechanism and clinical application.

ObjectiveTo analyze the seroepidemiologic of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection and evaluate antibiotics medication of some positive patients by follow-up. Methods Serodia-MycolⅡ particle agglutination assay was used to detect serum antibodies against Mycoplasma pneumoniae in 3 134 clinically suspected infections. Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection was determined and seroepidemiologic was analyzed by results of the test, including positive antibody rates in whole subjects, in male or female groups, in different seasons or age groups as well as in different sources. Evaluate antibiotics medication of some positive patients by follow-up. The average days of medication were counted, different antibiotics medication and medication effect were analyzed. Results In 3 134 serum samples from clinically suspected Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections, 350 ( 11.2% ) were tested with positive antibodies. The positive antibody rate in female patients was 12. 3% ( 198/1 604), which was higher than 9. 9% ( 152/1 530) in males (X2 =4. 58,P <0. 05). The peak season was found in the fourth quarter (October-December) with 13.2% of positive antibody and the highest positive rate (32. 8%, 45/137 ) was found in school aged (5 -9 years old )children. Samples from pediatrics clinic and ward were tested to have highest positive rates ( 27. 9% and 26. 5%, respectively ), comparing that from other sources. Infection due to Mycoplasma pneumoniae was identified in 28% (7/25) of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) patients, which is higher than other diseases. Based on the follow-up of 91 antibody positive patients, between 5 to 120 days ( mean 24. 2 days )were counted from appearance of clinical symptoms to clinic visiting/testing. 71 of 91 (78. 0% ) patients was medicated with macrolide antibiotics, 4 (4. 4% ) with quinolones, 4 (4. 4% ) with cephalosporin, and the rest 12 ( 13.2% ) patients were medicated with other antibiotics or only symptomatic treatment. The average period of antibiotics medication was between 3 to 21 days (mean 8. 2 days). Medication effect results by follow-up were cure in 35 ( 38. 5% ), improvement in 50 (54. 9% ), and poor responses in 6 (6. 6% ).ConclusionsMycoplasma pneumoniae positive rate in female patients was higher than in males, and peak rate was found in the fourth quarter and in school aged children. Samples from pediatrics clinic and ward were tested to have highest positive rates. Physicians could choose first line antibiotics according to laboratory test results of Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and gain good effect.

Objective To establish plaque reduction assay and evaluate the activities of oseltamivir (tamiflu),amantadine,ribavirin and herb radix isatidis against influenza virus in vitro.Methods Plaque reduction assay was used to determine IC_(50) values of four studied drugs above in this susceptibility testing in which 8 clinical isolates(three influenza A virus isolates and five influenza B virus isolateds)were inoculated and tested.Results By testing of 8 clinical isolates of influenza virus A and B isolated between the year 2001 to 2008,oseltamivir and amantadine were found to be sensitive to influenza A virus with IC_(50) of 0.064 -0.128 mg/L and 0.5 mg/L,respectively.However,ribavirin(IC_(50)>8 mg/L)was not found to be sensitive,and herb radix isatidis had totally no activities.Unfortunately.all four studied drugs were not found to have activities against influenza B virus in vitro.Conclusions It Was indicated that oseltamivir and amantadine.but not ribavirin and herb radix isatidis.are sensitive to influenza A virus.All four studied drugs were not found to have activities against influenza B virus in vitro.
