This article sumed up the therapeutic principle and treatments of ‘toxin' in Treatise on the Causes and Manifestation of Diseases,including sterilizing,alexipharmacon,Daoyin technique,perspiration,vomiting,inducing stool and vomiting,and external treatment.These treatments offered theoretical evidence for clinical treatment.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen combined with flupentixol and melitracen on depres-sion improvement,extremity motor function and ability of daily living and activity in patients with post-stroke depression (PSD). METHODS:60 PSD patients were divided into control group and observation group according to random number table,with 30 cases in each group. Both groups received routine clinical treatment,comprehensive rehabilitation therapy and psychotherapy. The control group was additionally given Flupentixol and melitracen tablets,orally,one tablet each time,in the morning;3 days later, one tablet each time,in the morning and noon,for 4 weeks. Other anti-depressive agents were not given during treatment. Observa-tion group was additionally given hyperbaric oxygen,0.12 MPa,for 90 min,qd,5 times a week,for 4 weeks,on the basis of control group. Depression degree [Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) and Self-rating depression scale(SDS)],extremity motor function [Fugl-Mayer motor function assessment (FMA)] and ability of daily living and activity [modified Barthel index (MBI)] were scored in 2 groups before and after treatment,and ADR was observed. RESULTS:After 4 weeks of treatment,HAMD and SDS of 2 groups were decreased significantly compared to before treatment,while FMA and MBI were increased significantly;the improvement of observation group was significantly better than that of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). No ob-vious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Hyperbaric oxygen combined with flupentixol and melitracen can effectively improve PSD,relieve negative emotion and improve extremity motor function and ability of daily living and activity.

Objective To explore the effect of applying problem-based learning (PBL) and case-based learning (CBL) in the kinesiology experiments. Methods Totally 534-year program undergraduates of Nantong University Medical School were divided into control group (n=26) and experimental group (n=27). The control group received traditional teaching and the experimental group received PBL and CBL teaching. The teaching effect was evaluated by examination and questionnaire. Data were analyzed by SPSS 19.0 and t test was used to compared the average scores of theory and questionnaire, α=0.05. Results The theoretical examination results (89.81 ±1.32) were better than the control group (84.82 ±1.75) (P=0.028). Meanwhile questionnaire survey showed that the experimental group students' evaluation of their teaching methods in promoting learning interest and initiative, combining theory with practice and teamwork con-sciousness were better than the control group students' evaluation of traditional teaching methods (P<0.05). Conclusion The teaching effect of integration of PBL and CBL teaching methods is better than traditional teaching in kinesiology experiments.

Objective: To observe the impacts of Xinnaoning capsules on the aortic intimal structure, serum levels of diponectin (APN) and calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) expression in rats with myocardial infarction, and explore the endothelial protection mechanisms of Xinnaoning. Methods: 15 male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats in sham operation group were randomly selected from 60 rats, the rest 45 rats were fed with high fat diet for 6 weeks and received coronary artery ligation operation. The successful modeling rats were randomly divided into model group, western medicine group and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) group, and fed with high fat diet for 8 weeks. The sham operation group fed with normal diet. The western medicine group and TCM group received atorvastatin and Xinnaoning capsules, respectively; the sham operation group and model group received same amount of distilled water. After treatment of 4 weeks, the aortic intimal structure was observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE); the serum levels of triacylglycerol (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) were measured by microplate test; serum levels of APN and CaSR expression were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blot, respectively. Results: Compared with sham operation group, aortic intimal structure derangement and plaque formation in intima in model group, and serum levels of TG, TC, LDL and CaSR expression were increased; HDL and APN were decreased (P<0.05). Compared with model group, the endarterium was more smooth in the western medicine group and TCM group, serum levels of TG, TC, LDL and CaSR expression were decreased; HDL and APN were increased (P<0.05). And there were no significant differences between western medicine group and TCM group (P>0.05). Conclusions Xinnaoning capsules are effective for myocardial infarction.
