Conclusion The treatment thinking of Professor ZENG Bin-fang for CHB pays attention to entire concept, attaches importance to Zang-fu transmission, regards“nourishing liver, soothing liver and strengthening spleen”as the therapeutic principle, together with nourishing yin, softening and resolving hard mass, clearing heat-toxin and eliminating dampness.

Objective To explore the effects of movement on hippocampal β-amyloid protein ( Aβ ) and amyloid precursor protein (APP) in senescence-accelerated and senescence-prone (SAMP8) mice, and the mechanism by which movement improves learning and memory in mice with a model of Alzheimer's disease. Methods Forty 3-month-old SAMP8 mice were divided randomly into a movement group and a control group. The movement group was trained with a running wheel 10 min daily, 5 days a week in the first month, and 20 min daily in the second month. Morphological changes in the hippocampus were observed under the microscope after HE staining. The expression of Aβ in the hippocampus was detected by immumohistochemical methods and APP mRNA expression was detected by RT-PCR two months later. Results HE staining showed neuron degeneration and death, chromatin condensation and vacuolar degeneration in the hippocampus of the 5-mouth-old SAMP8 mice of the control group. The movement group showed less neuron degeneration and death, and the morphology of most cells was normal The expression of Aβ in the hippocampus of the 5-month-old SAMP8 mice in the movement group was significantly lower than that in the control group. APP mRNA expression levels in the movement group were also significantly lower.Conclusions Movement can delay neuron degeneration and down-regulate Aβ and APP mRNA expression levels in the hippocampus of SAMP8 mice. It may be an important mechanism by which movement improves learning and memory in mice with a model of Alzheimer's disease.

Aim To study whether Ophiopogonin D has an effect inhibitory on myocardial hypertrophy induced by AngiotensinⅡand its possible mechanism. Methods Rat myocardial cell line H9 c2 were cultured in vitro. The effect of Ophiopogonin D on cell vitality was tested by;H9 c2 cells were treated with AngⅡ 1μmol ·L-1 after 24h to induce the cardiac hypertrophy,then it was co-treated with different concentrations of Ophio-pogonin D were added for 24h. After above,the total protein content was detected by BCA method;Quantita-tive real-time PCR ( qRT-PCR ) technique was used to examine the expression of marker genes BNP and β-MHC mRNA ,which representing the function of hear-ing; Western blot was used method to detect the ex-pression of autophagy protein LC3 B and high-through-put screening technology was emptoyed to verify it. In addi-tion, the changes of mitochondrial membrane po-tential in H9c2 myocardial cell were also examined. Results The cell viability results showed that H9 c-2 cells exposed to different concentrations of AngⅡ had no significant effect on vitality compared with the con-trol group after 24 h,but high concentrations of Ophio-pogonin D ( 50 ~100μmol · L-1 ) could obviously in-hibit the cell activity. Ot-her experimental results showed that myocardial cells treated with AngⅡ for 24h could cause myocardial hypertrophy,which appar-ently displayed the growth level of specific hypertrophic gene mRNA expression and the marked increase of the total protein expression. As hypertrophy was activated by AngⅡ, cells autophagy would be significantly en-hanced at the same time, more-over, the mitochondrial membrane potential would be reduced. But the effects of Ophiopogonin D could significantly reverse those pathological changes. Conclusion All above experi-mental results indicate that Ophiopogonin D can in-hibitmyocardial hypertrophy induced by AngⅡand pos-sibly plays a critical role in cardiovascular protection.

Objective To study the system of streptococcal C5a peptidase (ScpB) and the specif-ic antibody levels in serum, lung, vagina and recta after subcutaneous and intranasal immunization with dif-ferent doses of C5a peptide. Methods Recombinant protein C5a peptide was expressed in E. coli strain BL21 and purified by affinity chromatography. The expressed product was identified by SDS-PAGE and pep-tide mass fingerprinting (PMF). BALB/c mice were subcutaneously and intranasally injected with different doses of ScpB. Antibody titer was tested by ELISA. Opsonophagocytosis assay was used to test the function of antibody. Results ScpB protein was successfully expressed and purified. The probability based mouse score of ScpB was 175 by PMF analysis. ELISA data showed that both subcutaneous and intranasal immtmi-zation could elicit significantly higher levels of IgG in immunized mice serum than that of control group (P ＜0.01), 30 μg group waa better than 5 μg and 10 μg group. Intranasal immunization could elicit higher lev-els of IgA in lung, vagina and rectum (P ＜0.001) while system immunization could not. Opsenophagocyto-sis tests indicated that anti-serum of ScpB had opsenophagocytic activity than that of control (P ＜ 0. 05).Conclusion The results demonstrated that intranasal immunization with ScpB could induce significantly higher levels of lgG and IgA, and its anti-serum had better opsenic activity.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of early mobilization on mortality in intensive care unit (ICU) patients with mechanical ventilation after discharge by Meta-analysis.Methods:Databases including SinoMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang data, PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Embase were searched from inception to September 17th, 2020, to collect randomized controlled trials (RCT) about early mobilization on mortality of patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU after discharge, the references included in the literature were traced. The control group was given routine care, the experimental group was given early mobilization on the basis of the control group, including passive or active mobilization on the bed, sitting on the bed, standing by the bed, transferring to the bedside chair and assisting walking. The literature screening, data extracting, and the bias risk assessment of included studies were conducted independently by two reviewers. Stata 12.0 software was then used to perform Meta-analysis. Funnel plot was used to test publication bias.Results:A total of 10 RCT studies involving 1 323 patients were included, with 660 patients in the control group and 663 patients in the experimental group. The results of literature quality evaluation showed that 7 studies were grade A and 3 studies were grade B, indicating that the overall quality of included literatures was high. The Meta-analysis results showed that early mobilization did not increase the mortality of patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU after discharge [odds ratio ( OR) = 0.92, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.75-1.13, P = 0.449]. Subgroup analysis results showed that early mobilization had a tendency to reduce the mortality of ICU patients with mechanical ventilation at 3, 6 and 12 months after discharge, but the difference was not statistically significant (3-month mortality: OR = 1.02, 95% CI was 0.74-1.40, P = 0.927; 6-month mortality: OR = 0.95, 95% CI was 0.70-1.27, P = 0.712; 12-month mortality: OR = 0.60, 95% CI was 0.33-1.10, P = 0.101). Funnel plot showed that the distribution of included literatures was not completely symmetrical, suggesting that publication bias might exist. Conclusions:Early mobilization does not increase the mortality of ICU patients with mechanical ventilation after discharge. Although it tends to have a favorable outcome in reducing mortality, and has a trend to reduce the mortality. However, due to the small number of included literatures, small sample size and differences in the specific implementation of early mobilization among various studies, a large number of high-quality RCT studies are still needed for further verification.

OBJECTIVE To study the effect of the ethanol extract of Fructus Psoraleae(EEFP)on endogenous metabolites in rat urine based on metabolomics. METHODS Male SD rats were orally administered with EEFP at the doses of 0.54,1.08 and 1.62 g · kg-1,respectively,once a day for two consecutive weeks. Urine samples were collected for 12 h after the last administration. Data were acquired with the MassLynx software based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS). The principal component analysis(PCA)and partial least squares-discriminant analysis(PLS-DA)were used to analyze the difference of endogenous metabolites in different groups,then putative biomarkers were found through the orthogonal partial least-squares-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA),variable importance in the projection(VIP)and t test and their relative intensity were determined. RESULTS The results of PCA showed that samples of each group were clustered,all the groups were separated,and that the distance between the EEFP groups and the blank control group was increased in a dose-dependent manner. The relative contents of p-cresol glucuronide and galactose-beta-1,4-xylose were 40.0 ± 11.2,2.7 ± 2.6,16.8 ± 6.3 and 45.9 ± 16.4,32.6±22.1,8.0±8.3 in the EEFP 0.54,1.08 and 1.62 g·kg-1 groups,respectively,significantly lower than those of the control group,which were 107.0 ± 26.9 and 82.3 ± 13.6(P<0.01),respectively. The relative contents of 5-L-glutamyl-taurine,and gluconolactone were 22.4 ± 10.0,47.6 ± 19.1 and 138.2 ± 18.8,337.3±64.0 in EEFP 1.08 and 1.62 g·kg-1groups,respectively,significantly higher than those of the blank control group,which were 2.6±1.6 and 20.5±6.8,respectively(P<0.01). The relative content of D-pantothenoyl-L-cysteine was 74.2 ± 31.5 in the EEFP 1.62 g · kg-1 group,significantly higher than that in the blank control group(0.6±0.5)(P<0.01). As the dose of EEFP increased,D-pantothenoyl-L-cysteine,5-L-glutamyl-taurine,and gluconolactone had an upward trend(P<0.01),while galactose-beta-1,4-xylose and p-cresol glucuronide had a downward trend(P<0.01). CONCLUSION The two-week administration of EEFP has effect on the endogenous metabolites in urine. The substances identified are mainly related to energy metabolism,taurine,tyrosine and glucose metabolism.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of the long-term quality of life(QOL).Methods:According to the standard of diagnosis of primary lung cancer, a total of 74 patients with primary lung cancer were included in the study, who were first diagnosed by pathology and /or cytology and /or clinic from 1 January 2010 to 30 June 2016 in Tangshan Third Hospital, Heibei Province, and whose data were analyzed retrospectively.The Chinese version of FACT-L (4.0) QOL questionnaire was used to evaluate the QOL in 74 patients with primary lung cancer who survived more than three years.Multivariate regression statistical method was used to analyze the main influencing factors.Results:All patients with long-term survival lung cancer were treated by operation, their average QOL score was ( 126.62±13.29). Age, type of medical insurance and clinical stage had significant influence on QOL ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the total QOL scores between<50-year-old group(138.18±13.92) and ≥50-<60-year-old group(138.18±13.92, 137.04±12.82)(all P>0.05), but they were higher than that in ≥60-year-old group (115.28 ±13.11) (all P<0.05). The QOL of residents′ medical insurance patients (117.92 ±13.13) was lower than that of employees′ medical insurance patients (142.69±13.07) ( t=10.849, P=0.002). The QOL scores of stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ (140.34 ±12.88, 133.31±12.07) had no significant difference, but which were higher than that of stage III (96.84 ±13.46) ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Patients with long-term survival lung cancer after surgery could maintain a better QOL by early detection, timely surgery and constantly improving the medical security system to reduce the financial burden of patients.
