The aim of the present study was to evaluate the protective effect of catalpol on vascular endothelial function in STZ-induced type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) rats. 40 high-fat diet with STZ-induced diabetes rats were randomly divided into model group, catalpol low-dose, middle-dose and high-dose group (10, 50, 100 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)), 10 normal Wistar rats were used as the normal group. The normal and model groups were given an equivalent amount of saline. All reagents were administered by oral gavage for 6 weeks. After 6 weeks, blood glucose and lipids were detected by an automatic biochemical analyzer. The endothelium-dependent vasodilation response of thoracic aortar was detected. The pathological changes of the thoracic aorta were observed by HE staining. Ser- um nitric oxide (NO), 8-iso prostaglandin F2α (8-iso-PGF2α) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were detected by ELISA. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) level of thoracic aorta was detected by fluorescence method. The expression of Nox4 and p22phox mRNA and protein in aortic tissue were detected by RT-PCR and Western-blot respectively. After catalpol treatment, endothelial damage of thoracic aorta was attenuated significantly; ROS level of thoracic aorta and serum level of 8-iso-PGF2α were decreased significantly; serum NO and SOD levels were remarkably elevated; expression of Nox4, p22phox mRNA and protein in thoracic aorta were significantly reduced (P < 0.05). Therefore, catalpol has protective effect on endothelial of T2DM, its mechanism may be associated with the down-regulation of Nox4 and p22phox expression, inhibiting oxidative stress reaction response.

Objective Comparison of the modified Weaver-Dunn method with AO clavicular hook plate for acromioclavicular joint dislocation efficacy.Methods Surgical treatment of Rockwood Ⅲ to the V Type acromioelavicular joint dislocation 35 cases,depending on the surgical approach,were divided into 2 groups of the modified Weaver-Dunn method and AO clavicular hook plate.Operation time,blood loss,hospitalization costs,postoperative Xray film results,the clinical efficacy results and complications were compared between two groups.Results Modified Weaver-Dunn method Section of the longer operative time,mean intraoperative blood loss more.Shoulder pain,the incidence of postoperative modified Weaver-Dunn method group is significantly lower than the AO clavicular hook plate group,abduction activity was better than AO clavicular hook plate group.AO clavicular hook plate group prone to shoulder mobility and shoulder pain.Postoperative Karlsson assessment standard,modified Weaver-Dunn method were excellent in 10,good in 4 cases and poor in 1,excellent rate was 93％ ;AO clavicular hook plate group were excellent in 8 cases,good in 7 cases and poor in 5 cases,excellent rate of 75 ％.Conclusion Modified Weaver-Dunn method is used to treat complete acromioclavicular joint dislocation.Postoperative shoulder pain and shoulder mobility are in low incidence of shoulder function recovery effect.

Lead compound optimization plays an important role in new drug discovery and development. The strategies for changing metabolic pathways can modulate pharmacokinetic properties, prolong the half life, improve metabolism stability and bioavailability of lead compounds. The strategies for changing metabolic pathways and improving metabolism stability are reviewed. These methods include blocking metabolic site, reduing lipophilicity, changing ring size, bioisosterism, and prodrug.

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) exerts its central nervous system (CNS) protective function as it hinders the delivery of diagnostic and therapeutic agents to the brain. With the development of nanotechnology during the last thirty years, the nanocarriers for delivering drugs make it possible to transport drugs across the BBB. The brain-targeted drug delivery system usually consists of two parts: nanocarriers and brain-targeted strategies. In this review, several kinds of nanocarriers are introduced for brain-targeted drug delivery. We focus on several possible strategies for brain-targeting and comment on their advantages and disadvantages in application.

Obesity in children and adolescents has become a public health problem of global attention.Although children obesity has less significant cardiovascular events,many obese children have early vascular lesion and endothelial dysfunction.Therefore,the risk factors of cardiovascular injury should be evaluated and intervented as soon as possible.

Objective To explore the main points of early diagnosis,the principles and the efficacy of surgical treatment of Lisfranc injury.Methods The clinical data and follow-up results of 23 cases of patients with Lisfranc injury treated from April 2004 to February 2011 (17 males,6 females,aged from 19 to 57 years old) were collected and analyzed.All patients underwent open reduction and internal fixation,among them,13cases with Kirschner wire fixation and 10 cases with screws fixation.Efficacy was evaluated in accordance with Maryland foot score.Results Twenty-one patients were followed up for 6 - 46 months with an average of (28.5 ± 2.6) months.In the last follow-up no patients has internal fixation fracture,loss of reduction and other complications.The score was 56 - 97 points with an average score of ( 86 ± 8 ) points.The results showed excellent in 6 cases,good in 10 cases and fair in 3 cases,good rate was 76.2％.Conclusion Lisfranc injury can be diagnosed by early signs and symptoms,and can be confirmed by combining with radiographic examination.Lisfranc injury should be treated with open reduction and internal fixation with Kirschner wire or screw,both of the two fixation methods can achieve good results.

Antithyroid drugs(ATD)is the main treatment for hyperthyroidism and its adverse reactions have been much concerned by physicians. Methimazole(MMI)and propylthiouracil(PTU)are the two common antitithyroid drugs used currently. Generally, the ATD are safe and effective, though their clinical adverse reactions are also relatively common. The toxic effects include liver damage and leukocytopenia, antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated pulmonary small-vessel vasculitis, hypoglycemia, allergic reactions, muscle impairment,and so on. They are usually reversible and disappear spontaneously when the drug is discontinued. However,the serious rare side effects can also occur and there may have potentially deadly threatening effects which need to be cautious for the clinicians. MMI is usually preferred over PTU because it has significantly fewer side effects. And unlike the dose-dependent side effects of MMI, there has no significant correlation between adverse reaction and drug dosage in using PTU. Moreover, PTU has more severe hepatotoxity than MMI, even fatal liver impairment and liver failure. The risk of liver damage from PTU is an important concern, particularly in children. For this reason, MMI is the first choice for treating children with hyperthyroidism.

International League Against Epilepsy announced the new International Classification of Epilepsy in 2001. One of the main objectives of the project is to adopt standard terms to describe seizure phenomena according to the terminological database. The project may profit academic communication and resource integration, and provide evidence for the individual treatment for epilepsy. Treatment based on syndrome differentiation is one of the characteristics of the treatment for epilepsy in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). As far as the individuation on diagnosis and treatment is concerned, TCM and Western medicine present to reach the same goal by different routes gradually for the treatment of epilepsy. But for TCM, the diagnosis and treatment criteria for epilepsy are imperfect and the experts, opinions are not unified, so that the treatment based on syndrome differentiation becomes confused, hence the credit of treatment based on TCM is restricted accordingly. It is necessary to formulate advanced diagnosis and treatment criteria for syndromes of epilepsy in TCM.

Ginsenoside is the main component of antitumor effects of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) Ginseng. Clinical pharmacological studies have shown that Ginsenoside Rb1 can inhibit P-gp which can lead to efflux of drugs, enhance the sensitivity of cells to drugs, reduce the multidrug resistance of the tumor cell, and maintain the immune function of the body to tumor cells. Ginsenoside Rg3 can impact tumor cell protein expression, play a role in cell division, induce tumor cell apoptosis and inhibit tumor growth of blood vessels. Ginsenoside Rh2 may play an antitumor effect by inhibiting tumor cell proliferation and metastasis, inducing tumor cell apoptosis. This article ex-plained the antitumor effects and mechanism of Ginsenoside Rb1, Rg3, Rh2 in order to provide theoretical evidences for the clinical development and application.
