Results The excellent rate in observation group was 76.74% (66/86),the excellent and good rate was 90.70%(78/86),which were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.05 ).83 kinds of traditional Chinese medicine were successfully identified in observation group,the success rate was 96.5 1%,significantly higher than control group(P<0.05).The identification tine,retention time after correction of errors in observation group were significantly less than control group(P<0.05 ).Conclusion LC-MS has high accuracy,short identification time and wide adaptation range in identification of chemical components of traditional Chinese medicine.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the rational drug use and glycemic control for patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS:160 patients with type 2 diabetes in 3 communities of Tianjin were divided into 2 groups based on the understanding of the diabetic knowledge,group A(86 cases)had understanding of diabetic knowledge and group B(74 cases)had no. They were carried on the questionnaire survey about the general information,medication and glycemic control. RESULTS:A total of 160 ques-tionnaires were conducted,and 160 were effective with the effective rate of 100%. The proportion of patients with highly educated (college or above)in group A was significantly higher than group B,low education(secondary or below)was significantly lower than group B(P<0.05). The proportion of patients with medicine background in group A was significantly higher than group B(P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the use ratio of different types of drugs for diabetes between group A and group B (P>0.05),however,the use ratio of self-purchase functional food in group A was 0,and group B(60.8%)was significantly high-er than group A(P<0.05). The recent self-test average blood glucose levels,the average blood glucose levels in the investigation day,the 2 h postprandial blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin levels in group A were significantly lower than group B(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The medication and glycemic control of patients with type 2 diabetes is closely related to the understand-ing of glycemic knowledge. Therefore,propaganda and education of medication and related functional food for patients need to be strengthened to promote the rational medication.

BACKGROUND: The parameters of blood platelet(B-PLT) can reflect its thrombo-function, but the variation of blood-platelet parameters in patients with thrombotic disease is controversial and not unanimous.OBJECTIVE: To observe the changing rule of the B-PLT parameters in patients with cerebral infarction(CI), and investigate whether blood cell counter can be used in the evaluation of the variation of B-PLT parameters in CI patients.DESIGN: A case-control and experimental study based on patients and healthy people.SETTING: Department of laboratory and internal medicine in a university.PARTICIPANTS: During the January and March 2002, 37 CI patients including 28 males and 9 females aged 45 - 87 years were selected from Department of Neurology, Union Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College,Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Among 37 healthy people,20 males and 17 females aged 40 - 60 years were selected as control group.METHODS: Platelet distribution width (PDW), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet-large cell ratio(P-LCR) and the changing quantity of B-PLT of 37 CI patients were analyzed with blood cell counter, meanwhile,the healthy people were analyzed as control subjects.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Changes of B-PLT parameters in two groups respectively.RESULTS: A positive relation between PDW and P-LCR was observed and between P-LCR and MPV as well( r = 0. 99, 0.92, P ＜ 0. 001 ). A negative correlation between B-PLT quantity and MPV was observed and also between B-PLTquantity and P-LCR(r= -0.58, -0.59, P ＜0.05) .In CI patients, PDW, MPV and P-LCR were(14.51 ± 2. 88)%, (10.95 ± 1.48) fl and(34.24 ± 11.23)% respectively, which were higher than those of healthy people [ (12. 86 ± 2.02)%, (10. 19 ± 1.29) fl, (28.47 ± 9.41 )% ]respectively, and the difference was significant( P =0. 019 31, 0. 021 77 and 0.026 35), but there was no significant difference between the two groups in B-PLT quantity.CONCLUSION: The blood platelets' parameters in CI patients, which reflect the function of the B-PLT, are significantly higher than those in healthy people. It shows that the enhanced function of platelet is a risk factor of cerebral infarction, the use of blood cell counter in analysis can observe the variation of the platelets' function rapidly and accurately. It can be a useful method of the therapy and prevention in CI patients.
