OBJECTIVE:To facilitate the construction of Chinese pharmaceutical profession associations. METHODS: We analyzed the current situation and problems existing in Chinese pharmaceutical profession association as well as the developmental experience of foreign pharmaceutical associations then put forward suggestions for the development of pharmaceutical profession associations in China. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS: The sound development of pharmaceutical profession associations calls for the cooperated efforts of government, profession association and pharmaceutical enterprises, meanwhile its function as bridge and tie between pharmaceutical enterprises and government should be brought into full play.

Objective: To observe the clinical effect of Acupuncture at Baihui (GV 20), Sishencong (EX-HN 1) and Anmian [Extra, locates at the midpoint between Yiming (EX-HN 14) and Fengchi (GB 20)] for primary insomnia. Methods: A total of 112 patients with primary insomnia were randomized into an acupuncture group and a medication group according to the visiting sequence, 56 cases in each group. The acupuncture group was intervened by acupuncture at Baihui (GV 20), Sishencong (EX-HN 1) and Anmian [Extra, locates at the midpoint between Yiming (EX-HN 14) and Fengchi (GB 20)], and points selected based on syndrome differentiation, while the medication group was by oral intake of zopiclone tablet. The Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) was measured before and after treatment, and the clinical efficacy was compared after 1 month of treatment. Results: After treatment, subscales of PSQI and global score in the acupuncture group were improved, and intra-group comparisons showed statistical differences (all P<0.05); subscales of sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration and global score of PSQI in the medication group were improved, showing statistical differences (all P<0.05). Inter-group comparison of global and subscales scores of PSQI showed statistical differences (all P<0.05). The total effective rate in the acupuncture group was 92.9%, higher than 67.9% in the medication group, and between-group comparison showed a statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture at Baihui (GV 20), Sishencong (EX-HN 1) and Anmian [Extra, locates at the midpoint between Yiming (EX-HN 14) and Fengchi (GB 20)] as the main treatment method can produce a better effect than oral intake of zopiclone tablet.

The development of TCM is based on management with its core in education.Here it expounds the understanding of the nature on higher education of TCM.The higher education of TCM cultivates the inheritor and developer of TCM,who must possess the following basic qualifications:with the concept in the mind that TCM is a science;can differentiate TCM and western medicine;be responsible for inheriting and developing TCM,take as historic task realizing modern scientification of TCM;know the scientific development outlook of marching with the times and insist on the features of TCM.The coming of many talents and their hard work will make TCM develop continuously,which is sure to have bright and prosperous future.

Objective To discuss the relationship of miR-21 expression and IL-12 level in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.Methods Chosed 80 patients with suspected chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)and 50 cases as control group.Real-time RT-PCR was performed to determine the expression 1 evels of miR-2 1 of peripheral blood mono-nuclear cells of three groups.To detect IL-1 2 level by ELISA method.Results There were no statistical difference among GLU,TC and TG level among stable phage,acute phage of COPD and control group(F=0.341~1.542,P>0.05).Howev-er miR-21 expression and IL-12 level had statistical difference (F=8.951~15.017,P<0.05).The expression 1evels of miR-2 1 of peripheral blood mononuclear cells of acute phage group were apparently higher than stable phage,health group(P<0.05).The concentration of IL-12 in serum of acute COPD group was higher than other two groups(P<0.05),compared with stable COPD group and health group.IL-12 level was positiveiy related to miR-21 expression (r=-0.381~0.496). Conclusion miR-2lmay be involved in the regulation of IL-12 expression.miR-21expression may be closely related to the pathogenesis of COPD.
