For understanding the effect of MDG-1, a water-soluble β-D-fructan polysaccharide from Ophiopogon japonicas, on intestinal microecological balance, especially on the changes of lactobacillus, sixty 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were given a high-fat diet for six weeks and were also gavaged with saline once a day simultaneously. Then the mice which is below 30 grams or dropped more than 10% through lavage were eliminated and the rest were randomly divided into four groups: diet-induced obese (DIO) model group (n = 12, gavaged with saline), low-dose MDG-1 group (n = 12, gavaged with MDG-1, 75 mg · kg(-1)) , medial-dose MDG- 1 group (n = 12, gavaged with 150 mg · kg(-1)), and high-dose MDG-1 group (n = 12, gavaged with 300 mg · kg(-1)) according to the weight and blood glucose; the model group and MDG-1 group were placed on a high-fat diet while the normal control group (n = 12, gavaged with saline) were kept on a low-fat diet through the experiment. After 12-weeks of treatment, feces samples were collected and cultured for intestinal microecological balance analysis. Then the intestinal probiotics were cultured through traditional methods combined with modified gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) method. The changes of lactobacillus in each treatment group were also detected by a statistical analysis of the total number of the intestinal flora. We have established the phylogenetic tree by 16S rDNA sequencing and use some molecular identification methods such as PCR-DGGE to analyse the changes of the dominant bacteria floras, and also get the pure culture. In conclusion, different concentrations of MDG-1 can increase the number of the intestinal probiotics, especially Taiwan lactobacillus and Lactobacillus murinus, and improve their diversity and promote proliferation in a dose-dependent way.

Azone. PG combined with azone showed a higher synergic effect of enhancing effectiveness. Conclusion National Starch polyacrylate pressure-sensitive adhesive was the most effective pressure-sensitive adhesive matrix, PVP-K30 was the most effective crystallization inhibitor, PG combined with azone were the most effective penetration enhancers.

IPA.Skin permeation was significantly enhanced by increasing the loading concentration of OA or NMP,larger IPA amount(8%) or PG amount(20%) could inhibit the permeation of artesunate.Conclusion Oleic acid was found to be the most efficient enhancer for artesunate,10% is the most effective concentration.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of Ender nail fixation in the management of pediatric femoral shaft fractures. Methods A total of 24 children with femoral shaft fracture underwent small incision Ender nail internal fixation followed by 4 weeks of monolateral hip spica-cast immobilization. Results Follow-up observations for 6~24 months revealed no non-union or delayed union. The affected limbs were found within 1 cm shorter or longer than the contralateral in 4 cases. None became lame, and the functions of lower limbs were completely recovered. Conclusions So far as indications and contra-indications of Ender nail fixation are strictly followed, this treatment for femoral shaft fractures in children of age 5~10 years gives characters of small incision, anatomic reduction, unimpaired periosteum, short hospital stay, and quick functional recovery.

With the development of mass spectrometer,protein and peptide separation technology,and data analysis tools,the study on protein expression profiling of various tissues,organs or cells has been developed rapidly.The most basic purpose of proteomics is qualitative and quantitative identification of the whole protein in a cell or tissue.Therefore,how to make full use of mass spectrometry data has an important significance in proteome.Recently years,proteomics has begun to be applied in allograft rejection and discovery of rejection related biomarkers in organ transplantation.Through the extensive application of the technology in organ transplantation,graft rejection can be earlier detection and treatment.Therefore,the proteomics research have potential application prospects in the diagnosis of the organ transplant rejection.

Objective To observe the effect of Lovastatin on carotid atherosclerotic plaque(CAP),levels of blood lipid and serum C-reactive protein(CRP) in patients with cerebral infarction(CI).Methods 120 CI patients with CAP were randomly divided into Lovastatin group and control group.At the basic of low fit diet for the two groups,Lovastatin was taken with 20 mg once a day for 6 months in Lovastatin group.Then,the changes of paque score,the levels of CRP and blood-lipid were observed 8 weeks and 6 months after treatment.Results (1)6 months later,the plaque score(4.20?3.77) in the Lovastatin group was significantly lower than pro-treatment(4.77?2.31)and the control group(6.86?1.89) (all P
