Abdominal fullness in Taiyin disease,marked by being aggravated after vomiting,is mainly caused by internal exuberance of cold dampness,which indicates that the pathogenic cold dampness is accumulated in not only the interior of intestines,but also the exterior of intestine in the abdominal cavity.According to the description about hardness beneath chest in outline syndrome of Taiyin disease,Taiyin disease may be considered as such diseases as cirrhosis,congestive splenomegaly due to portal hypertension.Sini decoction should be used to treat abdominal fullness in taiyin disease with the function of warming and eliminating cold dampness,which shows the decoction has the function of recovery of cirrhosis of the liver decompensation.

Chronic myeloid leukemia(CML)is a pluripotent stem cell disease characterized by the proliferation of myeloid cell.Ph chromosome has been found in 95% of CML patients.BCR-ABL fusion protein expressing on Ph chromosome displayed constitutive tyrosine kinase activity.The fusion protein could phosphorylate and activate downstream substrates continually in the process of cell signal transduction,and then cells proliferate and migrate constantly,resulting the occurrence of CML.In recent years, people have been tried various methods to cure CML, which included developing some chemotherapy drugs and herbal extracts,as well as designing and synthesizing the inhibitors targeting BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase.Clinical studies showed that these drugs have been achieved remarkable effects.This paple aimed to review for drugs treated in CML.

OBJECTIVETo study the protective effect of puerarin on MPP(+) -induced SH-SY5Y cells by chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA).

METHODThe Parkinson's disease cell model was established by injuring SH-SY5Y cells with 1 mmol x L(-1) MPP+. The CCK-8 staining was adopted to detect the effect the puerarin of different concentrations on the survival rate of MPP(+)-induced SH-SYSY cells. The autophagosome formation was observed under transmission electron microscope. The AO staining showed the changes in the lysosome activity. RT-PCR was used to detect the changes in Lamp2a and Hsc70 mRNA expressions. The western blotting was adopted to test the expressions of Lamp2a, Hsc70 and alpha-synuclein protein in cells.

RESULTWithin the concentration range of 12. 5-50.0 micromol x L(-1), the pretreatment with puerain for 30 minutes could protect the injury of MPP+ in SH-SY5Y cells, and showed a certain dose-effect relationship. The AO staining and electron microscope showed the effect of puerain within the concentration range of 12.5-50.0 micromol x L(-1) on 1 mmol x L(-1) MPP(+)-induced SH-SY5Y cells; autophagosomes emerged in cells, and increased along with the rise in the puerarin dose. The results of the flow cytometry revealed that 50.0 micromol x L(-1) of puerarin could protect against the increase of the ROS level in 1 mmol x L(-1) MPP(+) -induced SH-SY5Y cells and prevent the oxidative injury. The results of RT-PCR and western blotting indicated that puerain within the concentration range of 12.5-50.0 micromol x L(-1) alleviated the MPP(+)-induced SH-SY5Y cell injury, and inhibited the accumulation of alpha-synuclein proteins in MPP(+) -induced SH-SY5Y cells by up-regulating Hsc70, Lamp2a mRNA and protein level.

CONCLUSIONPuerarin could protect against the MPP(+) -induced cell injury, whose protective mechanism may be related to the chaperone-mediated autophagy pathway of interventional molecules.

BACKGROUND:With the improvement of hemodialysis technology, the long-term survival rate of maintenance hemodialysis patients has been increased continual y. Nowadays, how to improve the quality of life in maintenance hemodialysis patients has been aroused widespread concern, and gradual y become the reliable indicator for comprehensive evaluation of the effect of hemodialysis. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of individualized intervention and col ective intervention on quality of life in maintenance hemodialysis patients. METHODS:Eighty maintenance hemodialysis patients, who had accepted more than 3 months of dialysis, were randomly divided into two groups (40 cases in the experimental group and 40 patients in the control group). Al the patients in the control group received 6 weeks of individualized intervention according to the pre-established schedule based on the hemodialysis routine care. Patients in the experimental group also have a period of six weeks of col ective intervention according to the pre-established weekly schedule based on the hemodialysis routine care. The quality of life of the patients was evaluated with MOS 36-item short form health survey and kidney disease quality of life short form before and after intervention. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After the intervention, both of the experimental group and the control group achieved significantly greater improvement than before in MOS 36-item short form health survey and kidney disease quality of life short form (P<0.01). The physical impact, overal health, emotional state, emotional impact, social function and energy of MOS 36-item short form health survey in the patients of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group after intervention (P<0.01);and the social quality, sleep, social support and patient satisfaction of kidney disease quality of life short form in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.01). The results show that both individualized intervention and the col ective intervention based on the individualized intervention are effective in improving quality of life in maintenance hemodialysis patients and the col ective intervention can better improve the quality of life from physical, psychological and social aspects.

Objective To explore the effect of transtheoretical model-based(TTM) health education on the self-management of the patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.Methods 100 patients of COPD were divided into the experimental group and the control group randomly,50 cases in each group.The patients in the control group received routine health education,while the patients in the experimental group received TTM education.All the patients were investigated with the self-management scale at baseline and 4,12 and 24 weeks after discharge.Results After the intervention,the scores of self-management in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group,the difference was statistically significant.Conclusions TTM health education can improve the self-management skills in patients with COPD.

The relationship between 3 polymorphisms sites [interleulin-4 (IL-4), IL-4 receptor (IL-4R) alpha chain and activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AICDA)] and adult allergic asthma in China was studied. By using case-control method, DNA and clinical data were obtained from allergic asthmatic patients and compared with those in the control subjects. The subjects were genotyped for the IL-4 C-589T promoter polymorphism, the IL-4R alpha chain Q576R and the AICDA C8408T by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. The results showed that the IL-4 C-589T was not associated with adult allergic asthma in China. However, the IL-4R alpha chain 576R/R and AICDA 8408T/T frequency was significantly increased in allergic asthma group as compared with that in the control group [odd ratio (OR) = 3.797 and 9.127, respectively; P < 0.01)] and was correlated with the increased plasma total IgE. These data suggested that the IL-4R alpha chain 576R/R and AICDA 8408T/T genotypes confer genetic susceptibility to adult allergic asthma in China.

Objective: To assess the potential significance of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) labelling indexes (PCNA-LI) and AgNORs number in evaluation of proliferative activity of Wilms′ tumor. Methods: A silver staining for AgNORs and an immunohistochemical method PCNA staining were performed on the biopsy specimens taken from 34 children with Wilms′ tumor. Results: No significant differences were observed between PCNA-LI and the pathological types and clinical stages, whereas fraction of S-phase and PI and the number of AgNORs were significantly higher in patients with PCNA-LI≥25% than that in patients with PCNA-LI<25%. The number of AgNORs/cell correlated well with both pathological types and clinical stages. The combination of PCNA-LI and AgNORs can accurately reflect the proliferative activity of cancer cells in Wilms′ tumor. Conclusion: The current pathological types and clinical stages may reflect the aggressive activity in Wilms′ tumor, but insufficient. The simultaneous determination of PCNA-LI and AgNORs count could be used as the essential complementarity of conventional pathological types and stages for accurate evaluation of biologic behaviour of Wilms′ tumor.
