Parkinson's disease is a commonly encountered central nervous retrograde affection in elder persons. According to the theories of traditional Chinese medicine, Parkinson's disease is characterized by deficiency in the Ben (root) and excess in the Biao (branch). The Ben (root) is insufficiency of liver and kidney and deficiency of qi and blood; and the Biao (branch) is wind, fire, phlegm and stasis. Good therapeutic effects have been obtained by treatment based on syndrome differentiation, treatment with specific prescriptions and acupuncture. The further study on literatures, standardized criterion of symptoms differentiation and therapeutic effect determination as well as the screening and further research on the effective prescriptions and herbs should be paid more attention, meanwhile, the integration of herbs and acupuncture will be conducive to raise the therapeutic effect.

Objective　To assess fetal cardiac hypertrophy and ventricular function in fetuses of diabetic mothers. Methods　Study group was consist of 23 fetuses of diabetic pregnancies. Control group was consist of 108 fetuses of normal pregnancies. Cardiac size was measured by ultrasound as inter-ventricular septal (IVS) thickness and ventricular diastolic and systolic (VD and VS) dimensions and perimeter. Cardiac function was expressed as ventricular shortening fraction 1 (VSF1) (ventricular diastolic perimeter -ventricular systolic perimeter/ventricular diastolic perimeter)and ventricular shortening fraction 2 (VSF2) (ventricular diastolic dimension-Ventricular systolic dimension/ventricular diastolic dimension).Fetal birth weight was recorded. Results　 IVS of study group （6.1±0.7） mm, which was significantly thicker than IVS of control group （4.4±0.7） mm. Left ventricular diastolic dimension (LVDD) and Left ventricular systolic dimension (LVSD) of study group were （3.3±0.8）cm2 and （2.2±0.6） cm2, which were greater than those of control group （2.6±0.6） cm2 and （2.0±0.5） cm2. Right ventricular diastolic dimension (RVDD) and Right ventricular systolic dimension (RVSD) of study group were （3.9±0.7） cm2　and （2.6±0.7） cm2, which were also greater than those of control group （3.5±0.5） cm2 and （2.4±0.7） cm2. Left ventricular shortening fraction 1 of left ventricular (LVSF1) of study group was 0.20±0.07, which was greater than that of control group （0.12±0.04）. LVSF2 of study group was 0.35±0.11，which was greater than that of control group too （0.23±0.10）. Right ventricular shortening fraction 1 of left ventricular (RVSF1) of study group was 0.19±0.05，which was greater than that of control group （0.13±0.11）. RVSF2 of study group was 0.33±0.09，which was greater than that of control group （0.23±0.14）. Estimated fetal birth weight of study group was （4 076±608） g, which was greater than that of control group （3 440±377） g. Conclusion　These findings showed that fetal hyperinsulinemia result in fetal weight increasing, global cardiac enlarger inter-ventricular septal thickness larger and revealed hypercontractillty of ventricle in fetuses of diabetas mothers.

Objective To investigate the association of fluctuation of anticardiolipin antibody (ACA) levels and clinical manifestations in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Anticar-diolipin antibodies were measured sequentially by commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 85 SLE patients. Patients were classified into two groups: group A was persistently positive for ACA, group B was transiently positive for ACA, and the clinical features of the two groups were compared. Results There were 37 patients (44%) in group A, and 48 (57%) patients in group B. 41% patients had occurred thromboeytopenia in group A, 19% patients in group B, the difference was significant (P<0.05); platelet accounts were (24±6)×109/L in group A,and (46±10)×109/L in group B, the difference was significant (P< 0.05), too. 11% patients experienced thrombosis in group A, and none in group B, the difference was significant (P<0.05). 19% in group A and 4% in group B had occurred valvular diseases, the difference was significant (P<0.05.). The prevalence of lupus anticoagulant was 32% in group A, 13% in group B and the difference was significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in Raynaud's phenomenon, pulmonary hypertension, and lupus nephritis (P0.05). Conclusion Fluctuations of anticardio-lipin antibodies are asso-ciated with thrombosis, thrombocytopenia vascular disease and lupus anticoagulant however, there is no lack of association with other clinical manifestations in SLE patients.

Objective To study the effect of anti anxiety treatment in residual dizziness after successful canalith repositioning procedure in benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.Methods 68 cases of benign paroxysmal position vertigo patients with residual dizziness after successful canalith repositioning procedure were collected,who visit department of Neurology..They were randomly assigned to anti anxiety group and the control group according to randomized controlled method.Deanxit (0.5mg/10mg,1times/day)combined with betahistine mesilate tablets (6mg, 3 times/day)were taken by patients in the anti anxiety group;take betahistine mesilate tablets (6mg,3 times/day) were taken in the control group.Follow up 3 months,the duration of residual dizziness and the changes of symptoms between the two groups were compared.The symptoms of all patients were evaluated before and after treatment by dizziness handicap inventory.Results The duration of residual dizziness in the control group was (16.38 ±8.83)days, and that in the anti anxiety group was (10.13 ±5.10)days.The duration of residual dizziness in the anti anxiety group was significantly shorter than that in the control group (t =3.440,P <0.05).In the control group,the scores of first week,s econd week and third week were (26.60 ±13.54)points,(20.80 ±10.97)points and (6.27 ±5.88)points.In the anti anxiety group,the scores of first week,second week and third week were (23.10 ±11.02)points,(13.33 ± 5.83)points and (0.67 ±2.50)points.There was not significant difference between the two groups (t =1.122,P >0.05)in the treatment of first week.In second week and third week,the scores of the anti anxiety group were lower than those of the control group,the differences were statistically significant (t =3.378,4.935,all P <0.05).After 3 weeks of treatment,the scores of the anti anxiety group were significantly decreased in the functional,emotional and physical scores (t =5.297,4.537,4.451,all P <0.01 ).Conclusion Deanxit can shorten residual dizziness duration of benign paroxysmal position vertigo patients after successful canalith repositioning procedure,and can reduce the degree of residual dizziness.

Objective:To investigate if a plant-derived polysaccharide sulfate(M33A) binding to HIV1 gp120 may induce the exposure of neutralization epitopes of gp120,and if M33A-bound HIV-1ⅢB antigens may be used as a AIDS vaccine for inducing neutralizing antibodies against HIV-1.Methods:Whole-inactivated M33A-bound HIV-1ⅢB antigens were prepared and used to immunize mice after mixing with FCA or FIA.The titers of anti-HIV-1 IgG antibodies in immunized mouse plasma were detected by ELISA,and the HIV-1 neutralization by those plasma was detected by the improved microtiter neutralization assay.Results:M33A-bound HIV-1 antigens induced higher titers of anti-HIV-1 IgG antibodies(group C:1.5?10~6;group D:1.5?10~6) than HIV-1 antigens alone(4.9?10~5),and female mice produced 3 times higher titers of anti-HIV-1 IgG antibodies than male mice after immunized with various HIV-1 antigens.All three immunization schemes did not induce the production of anti-HIV-1 neutralizing antibodies.Conclusion:M33A binding does not induce gp120 to expose neutralization epitopes.However,M33A may improve the level of mice immune responses to HIV-1 antigens,suggesting M33A may enhance immune response to HIV-1 antigens.

Objective　To investigate the characteristics of fetal growth in uterus. Methods　A total of 695 term singleton infant were studied. Various ultrasound measurements (including Biparietal diameter BPD, Transverse abdomen-diameter AD, femur length FL) obtained from 26 weeks' gestation to term. 147 cases were macrosomia. 48 cases were intra-uterine growth retardation (IUGR). 500 cases were normal weight. We assessed the tendency of BPD/AD and AD/FL of fetal. Results　BPD/AD ratio of macrosomia was lowest, and BPD/AD ratio of IUGR was highest of them. The tendency of BPD/AD ratio were declined in gestation. AD/FL ratio of macrosomia were highest, and AD/FL ratio of IUGR was lowest of them. The tendency of AD/FL ratios were smooth in gestation. Conclusion　The tendency of fetal growth in uterus showed that the add of abdominal diameter contributed to gain in weight.
