Objective:To fast detect hypotensive drugs illegally added to the flower buds of Panax notoginseng. Methods:A laser Raman spectrometer was used to detect several chemical drugs added to the flower buds of Panax notoginseng, and the spectrum was qualitatively analyzed. Results:Raman spectroscopy could detect chemical antihypertensive drugs added to the flower buds of Panax notoginseng, and the test results were in accordance with those of the traditional method. Conclusion: Raman spectroscopy can be used for the determination of illegal additives in the flower buds of Panax notoginseng.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for small interfering ribonucleic acid (SiRNA) R&D and registration in China. METHODS:The situation of SiRNA R&D at home and abroad were introduced,and problems encountered in the evaluation and approval process were summed up to put forward suggestions. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:SiRNA has developed slowly in Chi-na,with a gap of 5-10 years at least compared with foreign developed countries. The registration category of SiRNA is not clear;applicants lack of guidance documents;production workshop which meet requirement is in shortage;the efficiency of drug registra-tion allows of no optimism. It is recommended that pharmaceutical registration departments carry out the pilot reform for SiRNA registration,publish SiRNA registration guide,relax regulations for IND gradually,encourage applicants to participate in the inter-national multicenter clinical trials in order to improve the efficiency of SiRNA evaluation and approval efficiency.

Pulmonary interstitial fibrosis (PIF) is a common complication of connective tissue disease (CTD). The patients with PIF usually manifest with intensive dry cough, progressive dyspnea aggravated by activities, and even weight loss and very fatigued. In this paper, we have applied the traditional methods of "invigorating qi for ascending" and "strengthening earth to generate metal" with modif ied Shenxian decoction for treating CTD combined with PIF to support healthy energy, ascend thoracic qi, and ascend both qi of lung and spleen. We have observed Shenxian decoction could enhance body immune system, benefit the repair of damaged lung tissues, improve microcirculations, and treat both branch and root of body, which has been giving patients prominent effects.

Diabetic retinopathy ( DR ) is one of the most serious microvascular complications of diabetes. It also is a world's major causes of blind eye diseases. Although the injection of anti - vascular endothelial growth factor intraocular drug is becoming a hotspot of current research. Pan retinal photocoagulation (PRP) remains the effective and economical treatment for DR. As a destructive treatment, PRP will inevitably cause some changes on the normal morphology and function of the retinal and cornea. Currently, with the development of the optical coherence tomography, confocal microscopy and other auxiliary examination, we have more accurate and objective research to better understand the laser-neural tissue interaction. This may help us to protect the patient's visual function more efficiently.

Objective: To investigate the reparative dentine formation induced by the recombinant human bone morphorgenetic protein2(rhBMP2) used as a indirect pulp capping agent in dog teeth. Methods: Type V cavities were prepared in 48 teeth of 2 dogs. rhBMP2 with zinc oxide(A) was lined on the bottom of 24 cavities, saline with zinc oxide(B) in 12 and zinc oxide eugentol cement(C) in 12. 0.5 g of tetracycline was orally administered to the dogs twice a day on day 24, 54, 83 and 111. On day 135, the teeth were extracted and processed for the quantitative observation of reparative dentin under a fluorescent microscope .Results: On day 135, the reparative dentine (expressed as "?m" of diameter of area) in group A, B and C was 825.04? 125.46, 315.33? 80.43 and 415.25? 90.75 respectively(P

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of the effect of tonifying kidney recipes(TKR) on osseointegration of the Titanium Implants by established animal model of osteoporosis rats.Methods:Fifty-four female SD rats were randomly divided into three groups:A:Sham group, B:ovariectomy(OVX) group C:OVX+TKR group. After operation, tonifying kidney recipes was given orally in C group. The results were observed by bone histomorphometry. Results:Trabeculae area (Tb?Ar,%), trabeculae width (Tb?Wi), combined bone lamella width (CBLW), osteoblast number (OB?N) in C group were significantly increased compared with B group (P

Objective To analyze the curative effects of total knee arthroplasty(TKA)for severe genu varus combined with flexion deformity.Methods The clinical data of 25 patients(36 knees),who had undergone TKA for severe genu varus combined with flexion deformity from January 2005 to October 2010,were retrospectively analyzed.There were 7 males and 18 females,aged from 55 to 80 years(average 70.5 years).The primary diseases were osteoarthritis in 22 cases and rheumatoid arthritis in 3 cases.HSS knee score was used before and after the operation to assess the efficacy of the TKA.Results All of the patients were followed up for 4 to 9 years(average 6 years).The degree of flexion deformity was reduced from (21 ±63)°to(1.1 ±2.3)°;the degree of the varus decreased from(210 ±4.8)°to(175.6 ±2.1)°;range of motion of the knee joint increased from(70.5 ±20.5)°to(115.1 ±5.3)°;knee score augmen-ted from(33.2 ±10.5)to(90.7 ±8.5);function score added from(35.5 ±14.2)to(85.6 ±10.5);there were 21 cases(8 knees)rated as excellent,2(3 knees)as good and 2(3 knees)as fair,and the excel-lent and good rate was 86%.Most of the patients had normal force line of the knee joint,but 2 patients re-mained varus deformity of 5°~10°.Conclusion Satisfying outcome can be achieved by TKA in treating severe genu varus combined with flexion deformity of the knee.

Objective To investigate the relationship between C-reactive protein and clinical significance of Tokyo Guidelines for acute cholangitis.Methods Analyzed 739 cases with acute cholecystitis in Xianyang Central Hospital of Shaanxi province.Records of patients diagnosed with acute cholecystitis were screened between September 2013 and October 2015.The criteria of Tokyo guidelines were used in grading the severity of acute cholecystitis.Patients were divided into 3 groups,Group Ⅰ (n =450),Group Ⅱ (n =260) and Group Ⅲ (n =29).C-reactive protein values at the time of admission were analyzed and compared among the groups.Results Mean C-reactive protein levels of groups were found to be significantly different,18.74 mg/L in Group Ⅰ,133.67 mg/L in Group Ⅱ,and 257.43 mg/L in Group Ⅲ.C-reactive protein values among the groups were found to be highly and significantly correlated with the disease grade (P ＜ 0.01).After evaluating C-reactive protein levels according to the grade of the disease,Group Ⅱ was distinguished from Group Ⅰ with a cutoff C-reactive protein level of 72.54 mg/L,and from Group Ⅲ with a value of 195.85 mg/L.Those results were found to be statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion C-reactive protein can be accepted as a strong predictor in classifying different grades of the disease,and treatment can be reliably planned according to this classification.
