Objective:To investigate the effects of Kangyan Decoction-1 on Th1/Th2 in peripheral blood of patients with atopic dermatitis in wet-heat syndrome.Methods:The patients of atopic dermatitis were randomly divided into two groups: the therapy group treated with Kangyan Decoction-1 and the control group treated with loratadine.At the same time,the healthy nornal group was established,taking no medicine.The people's peripheral blood of three groups were detected respectively by flow cytometry.Results:Before the treatment,the level Th1 cell and the ratio of Th1/Th2 was augmented,the Th2 cell was decreased obviously of the therapy group(P0.05),the percentage of Th2 and the ratio of Th1/Th2 had statistic discrepancy(P0.05).Conclusion:The imbalance of Th1/Th2 might be part of the immune character of patients with atopic dermatitis in wet-heat syndrome.Kangyan Decoction-1 could adjust the Th1 and Th2 cells,but especially reduce the level of Th2 cell,adjusting the imbalance of Th1/Th2.This might be one of the possible function mechanism.

Objective:To screen the optimal formula and technology of demethoxycurcumin nano-structured lipid carriers. Meth-ods:The encapsulation efficiency as the main investigation index, the single factor exploration and orthogonal design were used to study the main factors affecting the quality of the nanoparticles. The optimal formula and technology were obtained. Results:The optimized parameters were as follows:the ratio of drug to lipid materials was 1 ∶40, the ratio of liquid lipid to total lipid materials was 10%, the amount of surfactants was 4% and the amount of lecithin was 2%. The prepared nanoparticles were spheric and regular. The size dis-tribution of the nanoparticles was narrow with the average particle size of 110nm and PDI of 0. 199. Conclusion:The optimized formula and technology of demethoxycurcumin nano-structured lipid carriers are stable and practicable,which provide reference for the further research of demethoxycurcumin.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of 64-slice CT angiography (CTA) to head and neck artery pathological changes.Methods One hundred patients with clinical suspicion of head and neck vascular lesions were retrospectively analyzed.Sixty four cases of lesions were detected by 64-slice CTA,and were checked by Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) within a week.First,the correlation of 64-slice CTA and DSA diagnosis of head and neck artery stenosis grade was counted.Then DSA was taken as the gold standard.The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,and negative predictive value of 64-slice CTA to diagnose head and neck arteries stenosis were calculated.Results Of 64 cases of patients,2 cases of congenital vascular dysplasia,including 1 case with internal carotid artery in 2 cases,the remaining 60 patients had different degree of stenosis.The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,and negative predictive value of 64-slice CTA was 95.34％,99.48％,97.62％,and 98.98％,respectively.Among 60 narrow patients,the plaque number was 205,including 88 soft plaques,56 mixed plaques,and 61 calcified plaque.Conclusions The 64-silce CTA has multiple advantages including rapid,noninvasiveness,high accuracy and safety,and high application value in the diagnosis of head and neck vascular lesions.It is worth promoting.

Objective To investigate the influence of acupuncture and stage health education on the function rehabilitation of stroke patients with depression.Methods 85 patients with poststroke depression were divided into a treatment group (44) and a control group (41).All the cases were treated with routine neurological therapy.Based upon it,the treatment group was given acupuncture and stage health education.Barthel (BI) index and movement scale Fugl Meyer (FMA),depression scale Zung (SDS) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD)were observed in the two groups before and after the treatment.Results After eight weeks treatment,the scores of SDS and HAMD in the two groups were (46.97±12.17),(26.04±5.37),compared with the pretreatment scores(56.07± 5.51),(32.74± 5.17),they were significantly reduced.The scores ofBI,FMB were(67.13 ±15.53),(64.41 ±20.03) which were significantly increased (average P＜0.01),this increase was more significant in the treatment group (P＜0.05) Post-stroke depression comparison:the total effect of SDS and HAMD in the treatment group was (77.88％,78.6％),which was more superior to the control group (56.6％,52.4％).Conclusion The acupuncture and stage health education has a significant clinical treatment effect on the patients suffered from post-stroke depression and also can enhance their body movement function as well as the daily ability.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect ofYiqi-Fumai injection andShenshao capsule in the treatment of angina pectoris and the influence on vascular endothelial cell function and serum MPO. Methods 90 cases of angina pectoris of coronary heart disease were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group. 50 cases in the treatment group were treated withYiqi-Fumai injection and Shenshao capsule; 40 cases in the control group were treated with Plavix and metoprolol; clinical symptoms were observed before and after treatment, the indexes of endothelial cell function and electrocardiogram blood serum nitric oxide (NO), endothelin (ET), NOS and serum MPO, SOD, GSH changes were compared.Results The content of nitric oxide (NO), 6-keto-PGFLa and NOS of the treatment group were increased than the control group, while ET was reduced. In the treatment group, NO was (78.09 ± 88.71)μmol/L 6-keto-PGFL was 32.04 ± 25.82 pg/ml and NOS was 27.88 ± 9.08 U/MI before the treatment,; after the treatment, the NO was 127.11 ± 103.60μmol/L, 6-keto-PGFLa was 50.03 ± 60.87 pg/ml and NOS was 35.12 ± 22.18 U/MI.

Objective To provide objective evidences for early screening of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal(HPA)axis function in diabetic patients, the relationship between HPA axis function and diabetes mellitus was systematically reviewed. Methods PubMed, Ovid, Embase, Web of science Databases were retrieved from articles reporting the relationship between HPA axis function and diabetes mellitus. Meta-analysis were carried out by Stata 12. 0 software for heterogeneity test and data merged among articles for the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results Our meta-analysis showed the following results: Compared with control group, the basal plasma cortisol level in total diabetes group, T1DM group, T2DM group, diabetes patients(with or without chronic complications)combined with hypertension was significantly higher. Compared with control group, postdexamethasone cortisol level was markedly higher in diabetes group. There was no significant difference in 24 h urinary free cortisol(24h UFC)and ACTH levels between diabetes group and control group. Our qualitative evaluation shows the following results: the differences of awaking salivary cortisol and cortisol awakening response(CAR)between the two groups were inconsistent among all included studies. Most studies showed that CAR was lower in diabetic patients. Conclusion The present analysis has demonstrated that HPA axis dysfunction exists along with diabetes mellitus, and diabetic comorbidity may further worsen the HPA axis dysfunction.

Objective To discuss the influence of hierarchical management mode on psychological empowerment and innovation behavior of nurses in intensive care unit (ICU). Methods From April 2016 to April 2017, hierarchical management mode was applied among 41 ICU nurses in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital for 12 months. The levels of psychological empowerment and innovation behavior were compared before intervention, on the 6th and the 12th month after intervention. Results Before the intervention, the score of the psychological empowerment was (3.07±0.46), which was at a middle level. Meanwhile, the score of innovation behavior was (2.91±0.40), which was at a low level. With the implementation of hierarchical management mode, the differences in the scores of each dimension and the total score of psychological empowerment were statistically significant (F=11.463, 27.192, 13.700, 36.609, 45.733;P<0.001). The differences in the scores of each dimension and the total score of innovation behavior were statistically significant (F=43.149, 106.489, 21.836, 80.586;P< 0.001). Conclusions ICU nurses' psychological empowerment is at a moderate level, and individual innovative behavior is at a weak level. Hierarchical management mode helps to improve ICU nurses' psychological empowerment and personal innovative behavior level.
