Objective To compare the clinical effects and safety of treating newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients by combining Glargine insulin with Metformin or/and Acarbose. Methods 84 patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes ,who have a history of weight loss, body mass index( BMI )23 ~ 28kg/m2 and poorly controlled blood glucose in Metformin at least a month ,were randomly divided into three groups. Glargine insulin plus Mefformin were used in group A. Glargine insulin plus Acarbose(without mefformin)were used in group B, Glargine insulin, Acarbos and metformin were used in Group C. All three groups were given a 12-week follow-up. Results FBG,2hBG and HbA1c levels were lower in the patients after treatment( P <0. 05 ). HbA1c of patients was partly up to the standard in group A and group B,but HbA1c of patients was all up to the standard in group C. The effects in group C were better than those in group A and group B. It had the shortest time to achieve the target and the smallest dose of insulin in group C. BMI in group A and B did not change but decreased in group C(P>0.05).The incidence of low blood sugar in all three groups was low and no significant difference observed among three groups (P>0.05). And in all three groups no severe hypoglycemia occurred. Conclusion The method of combining Glargine insulin with Mefformin or/and Acarbose could effectively control blood sugar had little impact on body weight of the newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients, and moreover, the incidence of low blood sugar in the newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients was lower. It would be the ideal method to treat newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients considering the general safety and effectiveness and convenience.

Objective To investigate the effects of ultrashortwave therapy associated with home-based rehabilitation on lung function and quality of life (QOL) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. Methods Ninety patients with stable COPD were equally and randomly divided into a combination group (received uhrashortwave therapy combined with home-based rehabilitation and regular treatment), a rehabilitation group (received home-based rehabilitation and regular treatment), and a control group ( received regular treatment). Spirometry and diaphragm function were measured, and St George's respiratory questionnaire (SGRQ) was administered for QOL assessment at the beginning and after 6-month of treatment. Results FEVI% pred and FEV1% increased and average SGRQ scores decreased in the combination group and rehabilitation group. FEVI% pred and SGRQ scores improved most in combination group (all P < 0.05 ). FEV1% pred, FEV1 % and SGRQ scores in control group did not show any obvious change. Diaphragm function in all groups did not change significantly. Conclusions Ultra-shortwave therapy combined with home-based rehabilitation might have combinative effects in improving lung function and QOL of COPD patients.

Objective To analyze the medication rules of the treatment of stroke in Gu Jin Ming Yi Lin Zheng Jin Jian Zhong Feng Juan; To provide references for the clinical treatment. Methods Prescriptions with confirmed efficacy of famous TCM doctors in the history in Gu Jin Ming Yi Lin Zheng Jin Jian Zhong Feng Juan was searched. Excel2003 was used to establish database to analyze medication frequency. SPSS17.0 statistical software was used to conduct cluster analysis, and tree view was used to show results. Results Totally 112 prescriptions for the treatment of stroke of 36 famous TCM doctors were included in the study, including 204 kinds of Chinese materia medica and 1169 times of medication frequency. The high-frequency medicines (>10 times) were Paeoniae Radix Alba, Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix, Angelicae Sinensis Radix, Pinelliae Rhizoma Praeparatum, and Poria. The high-frequency medicine categories were tonifying deficiency medicine (22.58%), pacifying liver and wind medicine (12.31%), activating blood and dispelling stasis medicine (11.89%), clearing heat medicine (11.46%) and dissipating phlegm, cough and asthma medicine (8.72%). Cluster analysis showed that high-frequency medicine (>10 times) could be clustered as 6 categories. Conclusion Gu Jin Ming Yi Lin Zheng Jin Jian Zhong Feng Juan focuses on tonifying deficiency medicine, accompanied with pacifying liver and wind medicine, activating blood and dispelling stasis medicine, clearing heat medicine and dissipating phlegm, cough and asthma medicine, which can be used to guide clinic.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the protective effect of propofol against focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats and its relation with gap junction.
METHODSSeventy adult male SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group, I/R group, low-, moderate-, and high-dose propofol groups (25, 50, 100 mg/kg; P25, P50, P100 groups, respectively), I/R+CBX group and P100+CBX group. Thread occlusion was used to induce middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in the mice for 2 h followed by reperfusion for 24 h. Longa's scores were used to evaluate the neurological behavior of the rats. TTC staining was used to measure the cerebral infarction volume and Western blotting was performed to detect the expressions of Cx43, PKC, Bax, and Bcl-2 in the brain of the rats.
RESULTSCompared with the I/R group, the rats pretreated with moderate and high doses of propofol showed significantly reduced neurological behavior scores and cerebral infarction volume percentage, and the effect was more obvious in high-dose propofol pretreatment group. CBX obviously enhanced the protective effect of propofol against I/R injury. Compared with those in the sham-operated group, the protein expression of Cx43 and the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio were increased and the protein expression of PKC was reduced in I/R group, and these changes were significantly reversed by high-dose propofol pretreatment; the effects of propofol were further enhanced by CBX.
CONCLUSIONThe protective effect of propofol against cerebral I/R injury may involve the inhibition of the gap junction via PKC signaling and by reducing the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the standardized production of Sojae semen praeparatum (SSP). METH-ODS:SSP samples from Heilongjiang,Hebei,Gansu,Shandong,Anhui and Yunnan were respectively collected. The fermentive bacteria were cultured with the selective medium contained artemisiae annuae herba and mori folium. Foline-phenol method,fibrous protein plate method and p-nitrophenol-β-D-glucoside colorimetric method were respectively conducted to determine the activities of protease,plasmin and β-glucosidase of the strains to screen dominant fermentive bacteria. RESULTS:Totally 14 wild strains were separated from SSP samples from 6 production places, including 3 strains of bacteria and 11 strains of molds. 1 strain of rod-shaped bacteria and 1 strain of Mucor sp. were separated from SSP from Heilongjiang;2 strains of Mucor sp. and 1 strain of rod-shaped bacteria were separated from SSP from Hebei;1 strain of Mucor sp.,1 strain of Penicillium sp.,1 strain of Streptococ-cus sp. and 1 strain of Aspergillus sp. were separated from SSP from Gansu;2 strains of Mucor sp. were separated from SSP from Shandong;1 strain of Mucor sp. and 1 strain of Aspergillus sp. were separated from SSP from Anhui;and only 1 strain of Mucor sp. was separated from SSP from Yunnan. According to the strains category and enzyme activities,No.1 bacillus,No.9 Aspergillus sp.,No.11 and No.14 Mucor sp. were preliminary authenticated as dominant fermentation microorganism,total enzyme activities of the 4 strains were 22.77,25.49,41.32,39.13 U/g respectively. CONCLUSIONS:The fermentive bacteria of SSP from different pro-duction places were different,and the dominant one can be screened preliminary through enzyme activity analysis.
