Object To do detail investigation of the saponins from the Chinese materia medica Huluba (the seeds of Trigonella foenum graecum L ) Methods The pure saponins from the total saponins were isolated by employing the column chromatography and dry column chromatography of silica gel H Their chemical structures were elucidated by 13 C NMR , FAB MS, DEPT spectroscopic evidence and the results of the fraction hydrolysis of acquiring their secondary glucosides were obtained Results Two new saponins B and C were isolated and both were the glucosides consisted by four molecules of sugar with diosgenin The chemical structure of B is: diosgenin 3 O ? L rhamnopyranosyl (1→3) ? L rhamnopyranosyl (1→4) ? D glucopyranosyl (1→4) ? D glucopyranoside And saponin C is: diosgenin 3 O ? D glucopyranosyl (1→4) ? L rhamnopyranosyl (1→4) ? D glucopyranosyl (1→4) ? D glucopyranoside Conclusion Saponins B and C are two new ones with four molecules of sugar respectively

Objective To investigate the saponins from the Chinese materia medica Huluba (the seeds of Trigonella foenum-graecum L.). Methods To isolate and purify the single saponin by the column chromatography and dry column chromatography of silica gel H. The structural elucidation was carried on by spectroscopic evidence of (()~(13)C-NMR), FAB-MS, DEPT and the results of the fraction-hydrolysis of acquiring the secondary glucosides. Results The newly isolated saponin D was consisted by six molecules of sugar with diosgenin. The chemical structure of saponin D is: diosgenin-3-O-?-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1→3)-?-D-glucopyranosyl (1→4)-?-L-rhamnopyranosyl [(1→3)-?-L-rhamnopyranosyl] (1→4)-?-D-glucopyranosyl (1→4)-?-D-glucopyranoside. Conclusion Saponin D is a new one consisted of six molecules of su-(gar) with diosgenin.

The receptor of the heart transplantation was a patient with terminal dilated cardiomyopathy, the donor was a patient with congenital ventricular septal defect, in situ double-chamber heart transplantation was performed, and the result of the four-year follow-up was satisfactory. At present, donor is deficient,and those donors with congenital defect can also obtain satisfactory clinical application effects after appropriate handling.

Objective To analysis the association between nephrotic syndrome (NS) and Hodgkin lymphoma. Methods The clinical data of one child with clinical manifestations of NS before diagnosed Hodgkin's lymphoma were retrospectively analyzed. Results A 3-year and 8-month-old boy, with NS as the first onset symptom, was poor response to hormone therapy. Hodgkin's lymphoma was diagnosed with cervical lymph node biopsy. After chemotherapy, the symptoms were relieved and the renal function turned to normal. Conclusion NS can be a paraneoplastic performance of Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Objectives:To investigate the clinical value of contrast echocardiography in the detection of right heart space-occupying lesions. Methods:The imaging and clinical data of 39 patients with right heart space-occupying lesions confirmed by surgery,pathology and clinical treatment in Yanbian University Hospital from January 2019 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients underwent contrast echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance(CMR)examinations.The contrast echocardiography features of right heart neoplastic from non-neoplastic occupying lesions were summarized.The diagnostic efficacy of contrast echocardiography and CMR in right heart space-occupying lesions was compared. Results:Among the 39 patients,12 patients(30.8%)were confirmed as thrombus and vegetation,6 patients(15.4%)as benign tumors and 21 patients(53.8%)as malignant tumors.There were 8,4,4 and 17 patients of thrombus,vegetation,benign tumor and malignant tumors located in right atrium,respectively.Contrast echocardiography was used to diagnose thrombus and vegetation in 12 patients(30.8%),benign tumors in 5 patients(12.8%),malignant tumors in 22 patients(56.4%).CMR was used to diagnose thrombus and vegetation in 18 patients(46.2%),benign tumors in 5 patients(12.8%),malignant tumors in 16 patients(41.0%).The Kappa coefficient between contrast echocardiography and clinical diagnosis was 0.956(P<0.001).The Kappa coefficient between CMR and clinical diagnosis was 0.754(P<0.001). Conclusions:Contrast echocardiography can dynamically observe the degree of vascularization in the lesion tissue in real-time,accurately distinguishing the nature of the right heart space-occupying lesions.
