Objective To study the effects of antidepressant treatment on living quality of patients at stable stage of COPD with depression. Methods 43 cases at stable stage of COPD with depression were randomly divided into treatment group( n = 22) and control group( n = 21 ). The control group were given appropriate bronchodilators and disperse phlegm with common;the treatment group were given zoleft(50mg, 1 time/d, 6 weeks and 10 weeks) based on the control group. Lung function, nutritional status and quality of life score before and after inpatient treat-ment were determined. Results There was significant difference on lung function, nutritional status and quality of life score between the treatment group before and after inpatient treatment( P < 0.05 ～ P < 0.01 ). There was no significant difference in the control group (P > 0.05 ). Conclusion Antidepressant treatment on patients at stable stage of COPD with depression is very important for improving the quality of life.

Objective: To explore the effect of modified HuangqiJianzhong decoction(MHQJZD) with various concentrations at different time points on gastrin(GAS) gene expression level in spleen-qi deficiency rats.Methods: Spleen-qi deficiency syndrome was induced in rats by compound methods which including Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, exhausting and hunger.Spleen-qi deficiency rats were randomly divided into the model control group and the low,medium and high dosage of MHQJZD group.Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction was used to observe the effect of MHQJZD on the GAS mRNA of gastric antrum in rats treated at different time points(7,14,21d).Results: As compared with that in model control group,the GAS gene expression level were both significantly higher in the medium and high dosage groups(P
