Typha angustifocia L(TA ) and its extracts: total flavones ( FT ) , organic acids ( OT ) , and poly saccharide ( PT ) inhibited platelet-aggregation induced by arachidonic acid in rabbits significantly and dose-dependend in vitro. The IC50-m of TA, FT, OT and PT for maximum aggregation % was 9.3, 3.0, 12.1, and 6.5g/L PRP and IC50-s for aggregating slope was 10.8, 4.3, 17.7 and 15.3 g/L PRP respectively. The ratio of IC50-m/IC50-s was TA 1 : 1.2, FT 1 : 1.4, OT 1 : 1.5, and PT I : 2.4 respectively. FT and OT also showed inhibition to platelet aggregation exvivo. The results proved that flavones may be the principal effective ingredient of Typha angustifocia L on platelet aggregation and responsible for the difference the drug effects on maximum aggregation % and aggregation slope between.

In the isolated perfused rat heart, TFH counteracted significantly the arrhythmias caused by perfusing with a solution without oxygen; increased ventricular fibrillation threshold markedly and showed a good dose-effective relation; prolonged the P-R period of electrocardiogram and decreased the heart rate and fell the amplitude of cardiac contraction markedly; and counteracted significantly the decrease of the heart rate and the amplitude of cardiac contraction caused by perfusing with a solution without oxygen. In the isolated guinea pig left atrium, TFH prolonged the function refractory period slightly. In the isolated guinea pig right atrium, TFH increased the accumulated dose of aconitine inducing arrhythmias.

Bacillus megaterium strains are commonly used in microbial fertilizer(MF) . MF products are often contaminated by other B. cereus group members,which have similar phenotype such as Bacillus cereus,B. thuringiensis,B. mycoide. For quality control and safety of MF,a rapid and accurate method is needed to distinguish the strains of Bacillus megaterium from B. cereus group. Based on specific nucleotide sequences of the spoOA genes,2 pairs of species-specific primers were designed and a multiplex-PCR(mPCR) was developed for this purpose. When the optimized mPCR was used to detect the DNAs of 24 reference strains from three genera of Bacillus,Paenibacillus,and Brevibacillus,all B. megaterium strains showed singlefragment of 443 bp and Bacillus cereus group showed a fragment of 411 bp. However,no any amplified product was from the other bacteria. The sensitivity of mPCR was 105 CFU/mL. The mPCR results of 10 isolates of B. megaterium/B. cereus group and 8 products of MF coincided with the biochemical assay. Taken together,our newly developed mPCR assay was species-specific and effective in application. It can be used to detect and identify the strains of B. megaterium and B. cereus group from microbial fertilizer products.

ObjectiveTo explore the value of the diagnosis of breast cancer by acoustic elastography, conventional ultrasonography (including gray-scale ultrasonography, color Doppler flow imaging and Doppler spectrum) and mammography.MethodsOne hundred and four patients with breast disease conifrmed by surgical pathology were studied retrospectively in Zibo Maternal and Children Health Hospital. All the patients were examined by acoustic elastography, conventional ultrasonography and mammography before surgery.ResultsPathological results of 104 cases were: sixty-five malignanies and 39 benignities. The most common signs in the diagnosis of breast cancer by conventional ultrasonography were spicule sign (76.9%, 50/65), taller-than-wide sign (73.8%, 48/65), vascular resistance index>0.7 (70.8%, 46/65), calciifcation (53.8%, 35/65). And breast masses without these signs were regarded as benign lesions. The diagnostic criteria of breast cancer by acoustic elastography was 5-point method. We regarded the lesions got more than 3 points as malignancy. The most common signs in the diagnosis of breast cancer by mammography were dense shadow (73.8%, 48/65), spicule sign (70.8%, 46/65), calcification (69.2%, 45/65). And breast masses without these signs were regarded as benign lesions. The diagnostic accuracy of acoustic elastography, conventional ultrasonography, mammography, conventional ultrasound plus acoustic elastography, conventional ultrasound plus mammography and acoustic elastography plus mammography for breast tumor were 88.4% (92/104), 86.5% (90/104), 83.7% (87/104), 93.3% (97/104), 90.4% (94/104) and 89.4% (93/104), respectively. ConclusionsThe combination of any two imaging modalities can improve the diagnostic accuracy of breast cancer. And conventional ultrasound combined with acoustic elastography could be an effective method in the diagnosis of breast cancer.

Objective To observe the benefits and safety of low-dose azithromycin maintenance treatment on pulmonary function and quality of life in patients with bronchiectasis. Methods Thirty-seven adult bronchiectasis patients accompanied with chronic purulent respiratory tract symptoms were selected, and all the patients were given azithromycin 250 mg oral, once/d for 12 months. The respiratory symptoms, pulmonary function and quality of life before treatment and 16, 52 weeks after treatment were observed. Results Among 37 patients with bronchiectasis, 3 cases were lost, 1 case was in the follow-up of the 16th week, and 2 cases exited because of acute exacerbation. There were no statistical differences in body mass index (BMI) and inspiratory capacity percentage of estimated value (IC%Pred) before treatment, 16 and 52 weeks after treatment (P>0.05). The C-reactive protein (CRP), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)/ forced ventilatory capacity (FVC), forced expiratory flow between 25% and 75% of vital capacity percentage of estimated value (FEF25-75%Pred), modified British medical research council dyspnea scale (mMRC) score 16 and 52 weeks after treatment were significantly better than those before treatment:(15.33 ± 4.00) and (9.21 ± 3.04) mg/L vs. (25.59 ± 9.82) mg/L, (75.94 ± 5.59)%and (75.52 ± 7.06)% vs. (72.14 ± 5.62)%, (60.22 ± 10.90)% and (63.73 ± 6.54)% vs. (55.44 ± 9.16)%, (1.75 ± 0.69) and (1.41 ± 0.56) scores vs. (2.19 ± 0.74) scores;the low respiratory tract infection visual analog scale (LRTI- VAS) score, FEV1 percentage of estimated value (FEV1% Pred) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease assessment test (CAT) score 52 weeks after treatment were significantly better than those before treatment: (17.74 ± 3.76) scores vs. (21.57 ± 4.47) scores, (70.31 ± 4.07)% vs. (66.95 ± 5.48)%and (18.06 ± 3.32) scores vs. (21.54 ± 4.89) scores, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). In the course of treatment, 5 cases might be associated with the drug adverse reactions, but the symptoms were mild. No patients exited because of adverse reaction. Five patients had 7 episodes of acute exacerbation, among whom 2 cases exited and the other 3 cases did not interrupt azithromycin treatment during acute exacerbation. Conclusions For adult patients with bronchiectasis, the long-term treatment of low-dose azithromycin (250 mg/d) can improve the respiratory symptoms and quality of life, and reduce the airflow limitation of peripheral airway.

ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors associated with macrovascular disease in patients with newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes. MethodsAccording to arterial intima-media thickness(IMT)measured by color duplex ultrasonography,232 cases of newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients were divided into two groups:one group were 95 cases with macrovascular disease(MD),and the other group were 137 cases without macrovascular disease (non-MD).Then various clinical data between the two groups were compared and the correlated risk factors for macrovascular disease were analyzed. Results (1)95 patients(40.9%)showed macrovascular disease in 232 patients.(2)Age,BMI,SI,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,TC,LDL-C,CRP and 24h UmAlb were significantly higher in MD group compared with those in non-MD group(all P<0.05);But ISI was significantly lower in MD group compared with that in non-MD group(P<0.05).(3)Pearson correlation analysis showed that risk factors were old age,BMI,smoking,higher systolic blood pressure,higher diastolic blood pressure,TC,LDL-C,CRP and microalbuminuria. ConclusionMacrovascular disease was related to many factors.It was important to control some risk factors earlier for preventing the happening and progress of macrovascular disease.

Aim To investigate the proliferative effect and the apoptosis of human hepatoma SMMC-7721 cells induced by gallic acid ( GA ) , and its underlying mechanism. Methods SMMC-7721 cells were cul-tured in vitro. MTT assay was used to observe the pro-liferation of SMMC-7721 cells induced on GA 24 , 48 , 72 h. The morphological and ultra structural changes of the SMMC-7721 cells were observed by inverted micro-scope and transmission electron microscope respective-ly. Annexin V-FITC/PI staining was used to quantify the percentages of apoptosis in the total cell popula-tion. The expression of p53 mRNA was investigated by RT-PCR. Western blot was used to determine the pro-tein expression of p53. Results GA(6. 25~50 μmol ·L-1 ) markedly inhibited the activity of proliferation and induced apoptosis of SMMC-7721 cells after 48 h in a dose-dependent manner. GA significantly induced cell nuclear condensation and fragmentation. RT-PCR and Western blot results showed that GA could improve the expression of p53 mRNA and protein. Conclusion GA can inhibit the proliferation of human hepatoma SMMC-7721 cells and induce cells apoptosis. The mechanism may be associated with improving tumor suppressor gene p53 expression.
