China Pharmacy 2015;(29):4063-4065
OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational application of TCM injection. METHODS:The utilization of TCM injection in our hospital during 2011-2014 was analyzed in terms of species,consumption sum,DDDs and DDC,etc. RESULTS:The type and consumption sum of TCM injection kept stable in our hospital during 2011-2014. TCM injection for activating blood circulation to dissipate blood stasis as Shuxuetong(Heilougjiang),Danhong,Shuxuening took up the front of consumption sum in 4 years. Top 3 TCM injections in the list of DDDs were Shuxuetong,Shuxuening(Heilougjiang), Danhong/Xueshuangtong corre-sponded to consumption sum. DDC of TCM injection were kept around 100 yuan. DUI ratio of TCM injection were almost equal to 1 or close to 1. CONCLUSIONS:The amount and DDDs of TCM injection are synchronous in our hospital,and the utilization of TCM injection is stable and rational basically in our hospital. TCM injection with suitable price and definite efficacy take up a large share,and the amount of TCM injection for clearing away heat and toxic material with anti-inflammatory effect increase rapidly.

Objective To analyze the corneal flap thickness in laser in situ keratomileusis(LASIK) using Moria M2 microkeratome and to identify the related factors. Methods Sixty patients with LASIK were divided into two groups: M2 90 group,using the Moria M2 90 microkeratome,n=30;M2 110 group,using the Moria M2 110 microkeratome,n=30.All were performed on both eyes with the right one treated first.Subtraction pachymetry was used to measure corneal flap thickness which was analyzed statistically with the data including age,preoperative corneal diameter,curvature,corneal thickness and refraction. Results In the 30 patients of M2 90 group,the mean corneal flap thickness of right eye and left eyes were(128.03?12.03)?m(105~156 ?m) and(123.40?12.38) ?m(92~147 ?m),respectively,and the corneal flap thickness were statistically different between the right and left eyes(P

Inflammatory bowel disease ( IBD ) is a group of chronic non-specific inflammatory conditions of the intestine with unknown etiology.IBD has variety of intestinal manifestations and complications and there is lack of gold standard for diagnosis, so the disease should be diagnosed on the basis of clinical manifestations, endoscopic findings and histopathological examination.Most patients require surgical treatment and long-term maintenance of medication.Multi-disciplinary team (MDT), consisting of gastroenterologist, general surgeon, anorectal surgeon, nutritionist and psychologist, is needed for individualized treatment of patients.This article introduces the MDT model of diagnosis and treatment, and its application in inflammatory bowel disease.

Digestive diseases, are various types of frequently encounted clinical disorders .at present, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of digestive diseases , in addition to laboratory tests (biochemistry, immunology, cytology and bacterial genetics , etc.), to a large extent still rely on imaging studies.Flow cytometry is a function of the level of single cells or other biological particles for quantitative analysis and sorting means of detection , which can be tens of thousands of high -speed analysis of cells and can simultaneously from a cell a plurality of measured parameters , high speed, high precision, accuracy, etc., become the most advanced cellular quantitative analysis techniques .In recent years, flow cytometry is widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal cancer , liver cirrhosis, Crohn′s disease, ulcerative colitis and other digestive diseases.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of acupoint selection by heavenly stems on eosinophils(EOS) in guinea pigs with asthma.Methods Forty-eight guinea pigs were randomized into four groups: group A(timely electroacupuncture at the period of the day from 3 p.m.to 5 p.m.),group B(un-timely electroacupuncture at the period of the day from 9 a.m.to 11 a.m.),group C(model group) and group D(normal control group).Asthma was induced by chicken ovalbumin in groups A,B and C.The hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining method and terminal-deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick end labeling(TUNEL) method were applied in the pathological and quantitative observation of eosinophils(EOS) in lung slices.Results The number of EOS was increased in model group(P

Objective To investigate the effects of rapamycin on renal tissue and function of rats with protein overload nephropathy and to explore the protective mechanism of losartan. Methods Experimental rat models with protein overload nephropathy, induced by intraperiotoneal injection of BSA (2. 0 g/d)into female Wistar rats, were divided into three groups: control group, rapamycin group(injected intraperitoneally with rapamycin) and losartan group(injected intraperitoneally with rapamycin and given orally with losartan). At different time points, the quantity of 24-hour urine protein and renal function were measured, and the morphologic changes of renal tissues were evaluated by HE staining and electron microscope. Results Both at day 7 and day 14, rats received BSA developed intense proteinuria. At day 7, compared with control group, 24-hour proteinuria increased markedly in rapamyein group (P<0.05). Nevertheless,proteinufia was notably alleviated in losartan group (P<0.05). At day 14, 24-hour-urine protein of rapamycin group was also significantly higher than that of the losartan group (P<0.05), but therewas no significant difference between control group and losartan group (P>0.05). Proteinuria and intratubular albumin cast formation were alleviated notably in losartan group. The fusion of focal podocytes in rapamycin group was obvious in comparison with control group. Conclusions Rapamycin can agrravate proteinuria in rats with protein overload nephropathy through changing the barrier of glomerular filtration by damaging podocytes. Furthermore, losartan can alleviate severe proteinuria induced by rapamycin.

BACKGROUND:It has been an urgent problem of how to promote cartilage repair of the knee and shorten the total course through a tissue engineering approach. Fortunately, microfracture plus stem cel transplantation may open up a new path for this issue. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinic feasibility of arthroscopic microfracture technique plus stem cel transplantation for repair of articular cartilage injury of the knee. METHODS:From October 2010 to March 2012, a total of 16 patients with articular cartilage injury of the knee were enrol ed, including 12 males and 4 females, with the average age of 38.6 years (16-52). Al cases of cartilage injury were confirmed by arthroscopy. Autologous bone marrow was extracted from patients at 2 weeks before treatment to isolate, culture and amplify bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s in vitro. The cel culture solution of 3-5 mL (about 107 cel s) was harvested. The articular cavity was clean by arthroscopy and microfracture technique was performed at the area of cartilage injury that was then covered with hemostatic gauze through a minimal y invasive incision and the prepared bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were injected. The knee was bandaged with the elastic bandage after aspirating the joint cavity effusion by vacuum suction. Functional exercises were performed early by CPM.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After fol ow-up of 4-18 months, there were 13 cases of excel ent, 2 cases of valid and 1 case of ineffective. According to Lysholm knee scores, the average scores were improved from 42 points (33-67 points) to 89 points (75-99 points) at 4 weeks after treatment. The function was satisfied and al patients were fol owed up without recurrence or worse. Under the arthroscopy, the combination of microfracture technique and autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel transplantation is proved to be effective for articular cartilage injury of the knee and it can notably improve the clinic symptoms and recover the function of the knee.

Object To investigate and compare the scavenging effect of Cordyceps growing in different environment on hydroxyl radical. Methods 10-Phennanthroline-Fe 2+ oxidative assay was used to observe the effect of scavenging hydroxyl radical from H_2O_2/Fe 2+ system by the aquenous extracts of Cordyceps. Results Cordyceps from Naqu of Xizang,northwest Yunnan,and northwest Sichuan all showed us the significant effect on scavenging of hydroxyl radical produced from Fenton Reaction. The biggest values of MDR among Cordyceps specimens from various microecological environment surpassed that among specimens of Naqu of Xizang,northwest Yunnan,and northwest of Sichuan. Conclusion The aquenous extracts of Cordyceps could scavenge the hydroxyl radical from Fenton Reaction. The microecological environment for Cordyceps growing has an significant effect on its scavenging action.
