Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2017;37(9):65-66,69
Objective To investigate the effects of Xinnaoxuemianning combined with statins on carotid atherosclerotic plaque in patients with cerebral infarction. Methods 180 cerebral infarction patients were divided into the observation group (90cases) and the control group (90cases) by random number table method. The control group was given atorvastatin calcium tablets and the observation group was given additionally Xinnaoxuemianning. The changes and prognosis of carotid atherosclerotic plaques were evaluated before and after treatment, and the incidence of adverse reactions was counted. Results There were no differences in the carotid atherosclerotic plaque, TCM syndrome score and neurological deficit severity between the two groups before treatment. After treatment, the above indexes were significantly improved, and the increasing degree of the observation group was better than that of the control group. The incidence rate of adverse reactions was lower in the observation group than that in the control group (5.56% vs.13.33%) (P<0.05). Conclusion Xinnaoxuemianning can reduce the carotid atherosclerotic plaque area and correct the unstable plaques in patients with cerebral infarction.

BACKGROUND:No particularly effective medicine could treat human immunodeficiency virus 1(HIV 1) associated dementia(HAD) at present,which mainly because the mechanism of HIV 1 infection induced neural damage and necrosis is still not completely clarified. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of human immunodeficiency virus I type(HIV 1) enveloped protein(EP) gp120 on the synaptic transmission and plasticity in hippocampal CA1 area of rat to clarify the mechanism of HAD generation. DESIGN:A paired design. SETTING:Department of Pathophysiology of Medical College of Jinan University. MATERIALS:The study was conducted in the Department of Pathophysiology(a tertiary national key laboratory of National Administration for Traditional Chinese Medicine,registration number: TCM 03 131) of the Medical College of Jinan University from January to October of 2003.Male SD rats aged between 2 and 5 weeks were used in the study. INTERVENTIONS:Brain slice perfusion and recording technique was employed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:To record the excitatory postsynaptic potential(EPSP) in hippocampal CA1 area in rat;to investigate the effects of gp120 on long term potentiation(LTP) induced by high frequency electric stimulation in Schaffer lateral branch. RESULTS:gp120 had inhibitive effect on LTP in hippocampal CA1 area in rat [the average amplitude of LTP decreased from normal (216.1± 14.0) % to(90.8± 6.0) % ,n=12,P< 0.01],but had no effect on basic EPSP.PKA/PKC protein kinase(PK) inhibitor H7 could reverse this inhibitive effect [the average amplitude of LTP was(198.8± 16.2) % ,n=8,P< 0.01]. CONCLUSION:gp120 might participate the generation of HAD through inhibiting LTP in hippocampal CA1 area.

Objective To understand the current status of health knowledge demands and its associated factors in general population. Methods A questionnaire-based survey by convenience sampling method was carried out in 700 subjects aged over 15 years old in October 2014. Information of demographics and health knowledge demands were collected. Data was analyzed using SPSS 17.0. Results A total of 653 subjects were responded, with a response rate of 93.3%. Respondents in male and female were 339 (51.9%) and 314 (48.1%) respectively. There were no differences among age , educational levels and self-reported health status between the two genders 86.6% of the participants showed that they had interests in health knowledge. Educational level and age were the factors associated with the interests. 65.8% and 72.3% of people want to get practical health knowledge of western and traditional Chinese medicine respectively. The top concern of health issues were cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. For preferred ways of learning health knowledge , television is the favorite one (44%), especially in elderly (over 63.8%). A relative high option rate was newspaper and magazine in all age groups. However, young people showed that they preferred the ways of the internet and Wechat (about 50%). For health disseminators, the participants in all age had greatest trust in experts in large hospitals (over 60%). The second option was retired old experts. The experienced patients were convinced in some degree and increased with age. Conclusions In future, health education in general population should considered the characteristics of the population and the applicability of knowledge. Besides , it is necessary to integrate traditional Chinese medicine with Western medicine, traditional media with new media, also authoritative experts and living example.

Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine 2015;35(11):1361-1366
OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of Tanshinone II A on severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) lung injury (ALI) rats and its possible mechanism.
METHODSSD rats were injected with sodium taurocholate to induce SAP group, and then intervened with sodium tanshinone II A sulfonate ( STS group). Simultaneously a sham-operation group (SO group) was set up. There were 24 rats in each group. The survival state and wet-to-dry weight ratio of lung tissues were observed. Activities of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in lung were determined by MPO reagent kit. Pathologic changes of lung tissues were determined by Hofbuaer method. Expression levels of three cytokines, TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) were detected by ELISA.
RESULTSThe survival state of rats in the SAP group was deteriorated. The wet-to-dry weight ratio, MPO activities, pathologic changes in lung tissues, and expression levels of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and ICAM-1 increased significantly more in the SAP group than in the SO group (P < 0.05). Compared with those in the SAP group, the survival state of rats in the STS group was improved; the wet-to-dry weight ratio, MPO activities, pathologic changes in lung tissues, and expression levels of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and ICAM-1 obviously decreased in the STS group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONTanshinone II A had remarkable effect on SPA LI rats, which might be associated with changing cytokines levels and attenuating infiltration of lung inflammatory cells.
