BACKGROUND: Clinical experiments indicates that Yufeng capsule (composed of milkvetch root, angelica, szechwan lovage rhizome, senega and salvia miltiorrhiza) is effective for benefiting vital energy, circulating blood flow,dispelling gores and killing inflammation. The mechanism may be associated with the function of platelet aggregation, changes of contents of thromboxane B (TXB) and 6-Ketoprostaglandin F1 alpha (6-keto-PGF1 α) in plasma.OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of Yufeng capsule on the platelet aggregation and its mechanism.DESIGN: Randomized controlled animal trial.SETTING: Department of Pathology, Daqing Branch of Harbin Medical University.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed at the Laboratory of Pharmacology, Daqing Branch of Harbin Medical University from May 2000 to July 2004. A total of 40 Wistar male gerontic rats with mean age of (8-10) weeks and mean body mass of (550±150) g and 8 Wistar male young rats with mean age of 4-6 weeks and mean body mass of (230±120) g were selected.METHODS: The 8 Wistar male youth rats were selected as youth control group. The 40 Wistar male gerontic rats were selected as the blood stasis model, and according to the numeration table method they were classified into 5 groups: aspirin group, low-dose Yufeng capsule group, the middle-dose Yufeng capsule group, high-dose Yufeng capsule group and gerontic model group, with 8 rats in each group. The Yufeng capsule was constituted by milkvetch root, angelica, szechwan lovage rhizome, senega and salvia miltiorrhiza, and provided by the Preparation Office, Second Affiliated Hospital,Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine. Respectively the rats were injected with aspirin solution (5.5 g/kg), Yufeng capsule (0.33 g/kg, 0.66 g/kg and 1.32 g/kg), successively for 22 days by gastric perfusion, twice a day.Those in the gerontic group and youth control group were not treated with any drug One hour after last time administration, function of platelet aggregation(PAG), contents of thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and 6-Ketoprostaglandin F1 alpha (6-keto-PGF1 α) in plasma were examined with platelet aggregation method and radioimmunoassay.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Function of platelet aggregation; contents of TXB2 and 6-keto-PGF1 α as well as ratio of TXB2 to 6-keto-PGF1α.RESULTS: Totally 48 animals were involved in the result analysis. ①The PAG was higher in the gerontic model group than other groups (P < 0.01).②One minute platelet aggregation rate (PAG1), five minutes platelet aggregation rate (PAG5)and the maximal platelet aggregation rate (PAGM) in the high-dose Yufeng capsule group were lower than those in the aspirin group[(7.96±2.17), (6.38±1.66), (14.33±2.87) ng/L and (31.95±3.94),(35.29±6.54), (38.68±7.46) ng/L, respectively(P < 0.01 )]. PAG5 in the middle-dose group was lower than that in the aspirin group [(13.96±1.66),(35.29±6.54) ng/L, (P < 0.01 )]. ③TXB2 content in the low-dose Yufengcapsule group, middle-dose Yufeng capsule group, high-dose Yufeng capsule group, aspirin group and youth control group was lower than that in the gerontic model group (P < 0.01). ④The TXB2 content in the high-dose Yufeng capsule group was lower than that in the low-dose Yufeng capsule group [( 100.13±8.90), (127.00±20.99) ng/L, (P < 0.01 )]. ⑤TXB2/6-ke-to-PGF1 α in the high-dose Yufeng capsule group, middle-dose Yufeng capsule group and youth control group was lower than that in the gerontic model group [0.62±0.17,0.69±0.14,1.75±0.17,1.11±1.12, (P < 0.05 )].CONCLUSION: High-dose and middle-dose Yufeng capsule is able to decrease the content of TXB2 and increase the content of 6-keto-PGF1 α, and improve their ratio. It is important to enhance the balance of TXB2 and 6-keto-PGF1 α. The effect in the low-dose Yufeng capsule group is lower as compared with that in the high-dose and middle-dose Yufeng capsule groups. It is thought that the low-dose Yufeng capsule has preventive effect.

Objective To study the feasibility and safety of horseshoe kidney transplantation and avoid the waste of the donor kidney. Methods The horseshoe kidney was identified and confirmed during the organ procurement process. It was perfused in situ and procured en bloc. With an appropriate dissection and reconstruction on the beach table, the horseshoe kidney was carefully divided at the isthmus and transplanted into two separate recipients. The surgical strategies and postoperative outcomes of transplanting the cadaveric horseshoe kidneys were evaluated. Results Two recipients had a immediate return of renal function after the blood vessels were opened. One recipient had a normal renal function presented as lower post-transplant serum creatinine values with a follow-up of 12 months. There was no complications related to the horseshoe kidney. Another case died of infection 1.5 month later after the transplantation. Conclusions Cadaveric horseshoe kidney may be transplanted successfully using various individual technical strategies based on the specific renal anatomy. Considering the lack of donor horseshoe kidney transplantation is feasible and safe.

Objective To explore the affinify of combination of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) and its L-form with surfactant protein D(SP-D),and to find function of SP-D in Hp infection and immunity. Methods SP-D was extracted from the lung of rats by Tris-HCl-EDTA and maltose-agarose affinity column. The combination of Hp and SP-D was detected by slide and tube agglutination tests,and the agglutination inhibition with SP-D immune serum was carried out. The L-form of Hp was induced by Ceftriaxon sodrum and identified by PCR and sequencing of the 16S rDNA fragment.The combination of SP-D and the L-form was tested by slide agglutination test. Results Agglutination of Hp NCTC11637 and SP-D was observed on slide,but NCTC11639,SS1 and the L-form failed to agglutinate. Agglutination was found 45 minutes after reaction and was inhibited by SP-D immune sera. Conclusion The ability of combination with SP-D was different between strains of Hp.The combination could be weakened or vanished when Hp lost the cell wall.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate characteristics and regularity of ADR induced by antineoplastic drugs and provide ref-erence for the safe drug use. METHODS:7 417 ADR reports induced by antineoplastic drugs from 91 hospitals from 2009 to 2013 were collected in the ADR monitoring center of PLA. According to the classification in national ADR monitoring cencer,Excel soft-ware was performed to statistically analyze the data. RESULTS:Among 7 417 ADR reports,1 475 were severe ADR(19.89%), 196 were the new and general ADR(2.64%),and 44 were new and severe ADR(0.59%);the elderly patients aged from 45-59 years accounted for the highest proportion (41.01%);intravenous administration was the main administration route causing ADR (88.96%);the incidence of antineoplastic drugs was higher in plant-derived drugs(26.55%),platinum drugs(24.86%)and an-ti-metabolism drugs (19.46%);ADR mostly manifested as lesions of digestive system (38.80%),blood system (16.53%) and general system(12.79%);43.60%ADR occurred within 12 hours after administration. CONCLUSIONS:Highly poisonous,nar-row-range security antineoplastic drugs could easily induce ADR. Risk prevention of antineoplastic drugs should be strengthened to undertake monitoring for high-risk patients and antineoplastic drugs,and severe ADR. More attention should be attached to the reac-tions after 12 h administration to reduce ADR incidence as much as possible.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for improving the drug price regulation policy in China. METHODS:Literature research,system comparison and other methods were used to summarize the commonalities and characteristics of drug price regula-tion policy in Germany,Japan and Taiwan area of China,and the successful experience was learned. RESULTS & CONCLU-SIONS:Drug price management in Germany,Japan and Taiwan area of China has their own characteristics. Germany conducted reference price system and new drug pricing mechanism,which was the first country to introduce the reference price system. Japan granted price premiums to innovative drugs,decreased pricing for generic drugs and adjusted drug price again. And Taiwan area of China classified and grouped differential pricing to encourage competition negotiation and regularly investigated drug prices and pric-ing. Germany,Japan and Taiwan area regard medicare pay price as core of drug price management,adopt comprehensive means to regulate the drug price,and pay attention to the monitoring and regular adjustment of market price as well. Price negotiation,phar-macoeconomics and multiple pricing methods are broadly used. Value-based drug pricing system is new trend of price policy re-form. It can be used for reference to improve the drug price regulation system in China.
