Objective To observe the effect of Yijinjing Supporting Pile on the superficial microcirculation blood perfusion units (MBPU) on Du meridian in subjects with yang-deficiency constitution.Methods After the classification and determination of constitution according to the traditional Chinese medicine,19 volunteers (8 males and 11 females) with Yang-deficiency constitution were selected and provided with standard Yijinjing Supporting Pile training for 3 months.The laser Doppler flowmeter system was used to detect the superficial MBPU on the acupoints of Du meridian including Dazhui,Zhiyang and Mingmen,Results Before the training,the average MBPU value of Zhiyang was higher than Mingmen,but lower than Dazhui (P＜0.05,P＜0.01).After the training,the average MBPU value of all the acupoints increased significantly (P＜0.01).Conclusion Yijinjing Supporting Pilecan improve the superficial MBPU of Du meridian in subjects with Yang-deficiency constitution,and regulate the energy metabolism of the Du meridian.

Objective To investigate the drug resistance tendency of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from the clinical samples during 2012-2014 to provide reliable evidence for clinical treatment .Methods The Klebsiella pneumoniae strains isolated from the submitted specimens were collected and identified according to the national clinical test procedures ,and the drug sensitivity test was performed by using MIC method .The confirmation test of ESBLs was conducted by using K‐B method and the phenotype of carbap‐enemases producing was confirmed by using the improved Hodge test .Results Totally 410 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae were i‐solated ,55 .87% of which were derived from sputum ,and the rest was derived from pus(9 .53% ) ,secretion(9 .47% ) and blood (8 .78% );Klebsiella pneumoniae was mainly originated from ICU ,respiration department and oncology department ,accounting for 16 .10% ,9 .02% and 7 .80% respectively ;the resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae against imipenem was 0 .74% ,the resist‐ance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae against ampicillin/sulbactam ,cafazolin ,cefepime ,cefotaxime ,cefatriaxone ,ceftazidine ,compound sulfamethoxazole were decreased year by year ,while which against amoxicillin/clavulanic acid showed the increasing trend as a whole .Conclusion Timely conducting the identification and drug susceptibility analysis on local Klebsiella pneumoniae and tracking its drug resistance trend can guide the rational and standardized use of antibacterial drugs ,reduces the pressure for selecting anti‐bacterial drugs in order to reduce the generation of drug resistant strains .

Objective To explore the effect of practicing Chinese gymnastic Qigong-Yijinjing on the infrared radiant track along meridian course (IRRTM)of Ren Meridian stimulated by moxibustion on CV-8 among dysmenorrhea patients.Methods Twenty dysmenorrhea undergraduate patients were recruied and practiced Chinese gymnastic Qigong-Yijinjing for 3 months.The numbers of patients of mild,moderate and severe symptoms were collected before and after the intervention.The effects of IRRTM stimulated by moxibustion on CV-8 were compared before and after practicing Chinese Gymnastic Qigong-Yijinjing.Results After practicing Chinese Gymnastic Qigong-Yijinjing,symptoms of 15 patients (including 11 with moderate dysmenorrhea and 4 with severe dysmenorrheal)were relieved to different extent.After the practice,all IRRTM of Ren Meridian turn to be more continuous,clear and regular either the Ren Meridian was stimulated with moxibustion or not.The average surface temperature along Ren Meridian rose significantly after the practicing.The conduction time to achieve the best states of IRRTM along Ren Meridian significantly shortened compared to before the intervention.Conclusion Chinese Gymnastic Qigong-Yijinjing can effectively enhance the transmission of IRRTM along Ren Meridian on dysmenorrhea patients,and may have a positive effect on dysmenorrhea treatment.

Objective To observe the efifcacy and safety of ticagrelor in patients received percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods 50 patients with non-responding platelet aggregation rate and CYPC219 gene after clopidogrel treatment were given ticagrelor and enrolled in the study. All enrolled patients received aspirin loading dosage 300 mg, followed by maintenance dosage 100 mg, once daily and ticagrelor maintenance dosage 90 mg twice daily, for 1 year. The primary endpoint for the study were the incidence of major cardiovascular events (including death, stent thrombosis, stent restenosis, nonfatal myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization) and stroke after followed up for a month. The secondary endpoint were the incidence of general events (including minor bleeding, allergies, breathing dififculties) and platelet count changes. Results No occur major cardiovascular and stroke events record after 1 month of ticagrelor treatment. The general events rates included 2 cases of dyspnen, 1 case of epitaxis and 1 case of subcutaneous bleeding. The platelet aggregation with ticagrelor was signiifcantly lower than clopidogrel without signiifcant decrease in platelets count. Conclusions Using ticagrelor for antiplatelet in patients with coronary artery stenting in clopidogrel resistance cases is safe and effective.

Clopidogrel was believed to be superior to aspirin by the well-known CAPRIE trial. However, no other large clinical trials demonstrated the same results, but all focused on the combination use of clopidogrel with aspirin, and combination therapy in CREDO was called the "Emperor's New Clothes". However, no one overturned the results of these clinical trials by quantitatively analyzing them. We reviewed ten large-scale clinical trials about clopidogrel. On the basis of results of CAPRIE, CREDO and CHARISMA trials, we re-estimated their minimal sample sizes and their powers by three well-established statistical methodologies. From the results of CAPRIE, we inferred that the minimal sample size should be 85 086 or 84 968 but its power was only 30.70%. A huge gap existed. The same was also true of CREDO and CHARISMA trials. Moreover, in CAPRIE trial, 0 was included in the 95% confidence interval and 1 was included in the 95% confidence interval for the relative risk. There were some paradoxical data in CAPRIE trial. We are led to conclude that the results in CAPRIE, CREDO, and from the subgroup analysis in CHARISMA trials were questionable. These results failed to demonstrate that clopidogrel was superior to aspirin or that clopidogrel used in combination with aspirin was better than aspirin alone. The cost-effectiveness analyses by some previous studies were not reliable.

Objective To observe and analyze the effect of HbA1c level on macular microcirculation in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods A cross-sectional study.One hundred and twenty-four T2DM patients (124 eyes) without diabetic retinopathy who diagnosed by the examination of fundus color photography in Lixiang Eye Hospital Of Soochow University during September to December 2017 were enrolled in this study.There were 59 males (59 eyes) and 65 females (65 eyes),with the mean age of 65.06±7.99 years old.All patients underwent BCVA,fundus color photography,and OCT angiography (OCTA).The history of diabetes,hypertension and dyslipidemia were recorded in detail.According to the HbA 1 c level,patients were divided into three groups,HbA1c ideal control group (group A,HbA1c ＜7％,67 eyes),HbA1c control group (group B,7％≤HbA1c≤9％,44 eyes),and HbA1c poor control group (group C,HbA1c＞9％,13 eyes),respectively.The 3 mm × 3 mm range of the macular area was scanned by OCTA instrument.The vascular density (VD) and skeleton density (SD) of nonsegmented retinal layer (NRL),superficial retinal layer (SRL) and deep retinal layer (DRL) in the macular area and foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area,non-circularity index,axial rate (AR) of SRL were measured.The correlation between HbA1c,BCVA and VD,SD ofNRL,SRL,DRL was analyzed statistically with Spearman correlation test.The correlation between systemic factors and the above indicators was analyzed statistically with linear regression analysis.Results The results of linear regression analysis showed that HbA1 c was significantly correlated with VD (t=-3.237,-3.156,-2.050) and SD (t=-0.3.45,-3.034,-2.248) of NRL,SRL and DRL (P＜0.05);but no correlation with FAZ,non-circularity index and AR (t=1.739,0.429,1.155;P＞0.05).The differences of VD (F=6.349,5.981,3.709),SD (F=7.275,6.085,1.904) and AR (F=0.027) of NRL,SRL and DRL in group A,B and C were statistically significant (P＜0.05);but the differences of FAZ (F=1.904),non-circularity index (F=0.280) was not statistically significant (P＞0.05).Significant differences (P＜0.05) of VD and SD of NRL were found between group A and B (t=1.987,2.201),group A and C (t=3.365,3.572),group B and C (t=2.010,2.076).Significant differences (P＜0.05) of VD and SD of SRL were found between group A and B (t=2.087,2.168),group A and C (t=3.197,3.194).There were significant differences (P＜ 0.05) in SD of DRL between group A and B (t=2.239),group A and C (t=-2.519).There was significant difference in VD of DRL between group A and C (t=2.363).The results of Spearman correlation analysis showed that HbA1c was negatively correlated with VD (r=-0.273,-0.255,-0.222;P=0.002,0.004,0.013) and SD (r=-0.275,-0.236,-0.254;P＜0.05) ofNRL,SRL,DRL;positively correlated with FAZ and BCVA (r=0.221,0.183;P＜0.05).BCVA was negatively correlated with VD (r=-0.210,-0.190,-0.245) and SD (r=-0.239,-0.207,-0.296) of NRL,SRL,and DRL (P＜0.05),but not correlated with FAZ (r=0.099,P＞0.05).Conclusion The decrease of macular perfusion and the morphological change of FAZ accompanied by HbA1c increased.
