Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2015;(7):534-536
[Objectives]To extract Yang Lishan’s description of latent evils ,summarize his arguments, and provide reference for exploring his academic ideology further. [Methods] Use the literature methodology, take“latent evils”and“pestilential pathogen”as keywords, retrieve the related description in Yang Lishan’s book, summarize his main opinions on latent evils. [Results] Yang Lishan wholly refused the theory of latent cold evil turning into pathogenic warm, and he believed that the cause of latent evils is pestilential pathogen, thereby distinguishes warm disease from exogenous febrile disease on etiology level. He described the disease’s quality, afferent pathway, hiding spot, the way out, therapeutic method, prescription and recuperation in details, which are mature enough to form a complete theoretical system. The prescription Sheng Jiang Powder represents experiment with the thought of treating pestilential pathogen with drugs and special medicine for special disease, which makes the etiology of pestilential pathogen to have real directive value. [Conclusion] Yang Lishan’s theory of latent evils has implications in treatment and prevention of epidemic diseases.

Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2015;35(10):102-104
Objective To explore different doses of recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) intravenous thrombolytic therapy for acute cerebral infarction.Methods 130 patients with acute cerebral infarction were as the research subjects selected from May 2014 to May 2015 for rt-PA thrombolytic therapy, who were divided into two groups according to rt-PA thrombolytic agent dose, 65 cases in each group.Evaluated the clinical efficacy of thrombolytic therapy after treatment in accordance within 24 h intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) , symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH) , other bleeding symptoms and for 3 months after treatment the prognosis was good rate, total mortality.For pre-treatment, the degree of defect nerve function after two groups of patients were scored by NIHSS score, correlation analysis between the two groups of clinical efficacy and function of the degree of nerve defect before treatment.Results 3 months after thrombolysis total mortality in the standard dose group was significantly higher than that in the low-dose group (P<0.05) .After treatment, both groups NIHSS scores were significantly lower than before treatment (P<0.05); After treatment, NIHSS score 4-8 points in the proportion of low-dose group was significantly more than that in the standard dose group (P<0.05); NIHSS score 9-16 points, 17-24 points in the proportion of low-dose group were significantly less than that in the standard dose group (P<0.05).NIHSS9-16 points of patients after total mortality three months in the standard-dose group was significantly higher than that in the low-dose group (P<0.05) . Conclusion Different doses of rt-PA thrombolytic therapy in acute cerebral infarction are basically the same, and the degree of neurological deficit does not affect the efficacy, but reduce mortality in patients 3 months after low-dose rt-PA treatment, it is worth widely used in clinical practice.
4.Fibrin glue application in breast surgery:a Meta-analysis
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2015;(38):6228-6232
BACKGROUND:Fibrin glue has been widely used in breast surgery, but due to the limitation of cases, there are some differences in clinical effects.
OBJECTIVE:To systemicaly review the clinical effect of fibrin glue in breast surgery.
METHODS: We searched China Journal Ful-text Database (CNKI), VIP database, Wanfang Database for clinical randomized controled trials related to fibrin glue used in breast surgery published from March 2002 to March 2014. A Meta-analysis was done in included studies using Rev Man 5.2 statistical software.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 11 studies, with 1 043 cases, were enroled for the Meta-analysis. Meta-analysis showed that the postoperative 1-day drainage amount and total drainage amount were significantly lower in the fibrin glue group than the control group [WMD=-85.62, 95%CI(-128.86,-42.39), P=0.000 1;WMD=-167.27, 95%CI (-210.05,-124.49),P < 0.000 01]. In addition, the fibrin glue group was superior to the control group in the postoperative seroma rate [OR=0.30, 95%CI (0.21, 0.44),P< 0.000 01]. Application of fibrin glue in breast cancer surgery can significantly reduce postoperative drainage and seroma rate.
5.Research on Ancient Literature of the Correlation Between Psoriasis and External Infection of Six Evil Factors
Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2015;(7):11-13
Psoriasis is a recrudescent chronic inflammatory dermatosis which is called“tinea”in ancient times. Its pathogenesis is not only associated with changes in the blood and body fluids, but also has close connection with external infection of six evil factors. This article sorted data of pathogenesis and treatment from the perspective of external infection of six evil factors, and discovered that pathogenesis of psoriasis includes external factors of four evils of wind, cold, damp and heat and internal factors of blood deficiency and blood dryness. Ancient treatment was based on dispelling wind, clearing away heat and moistening dryness. The pathogenesis can be summarized as follows:wind and poison attack skin and hinder blood production. The treatment can be “let in air for detoxification, enrich blood and moister dryness, cooling and activating blood”, blood and functional status of organs of patients should be observed, with a purpose to provide references and basis for modern clinical prevention and treatment of psoriasis.
6.A case report of the vasculitis misdiagnosed as pneumonia with stubborn heart failure
Tianjin Medical Journal 2017;45(7):750-752
Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) is a kind of systemic necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis characterized by capillary and small arteriovenous involvement.The typical WG triad is lesions of the upper and lower respiratory tract and kidneys.Only changes in the respiratory tract without renal lesions are localized WG.Localized WG is very easy to be misdiagnosed because of its nonspecific symptoms and radiological manifestations.The author found one case of localized WG,which showed pulmonary symptoms and refractory heart failure.The chest CT showed that multiple irregular nidus,blurred and density enhanced lesions in both lungs.The patient was misdiagnosed as pulmonary infection for a long time.The patient was eventually diagnosed as asantineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis and WG after two times of examination of protease-3(PR3) ANCA were positive.This article reviewed the diagnosis and treatment of the patient,and reviewed the relevant literatures.
7. Induction of acute myelogenous leukemia cell apoptosis by bortezomib and its effect on SALL4 gene expression
Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2012;47(4):274-278
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib induces acute myelogenous leukemia cell lines TF1 and NB4 apoptosis and its effect on SALL4 gene expression. METHODS: Cell proliferations were analyzed by MTT assay. Flow cytometry was used to analyze cell apoptosis rate. SALL4 protein was detected by immunocytochemistry. The expressions of SALL4 gene were detected by Real-time PCR. SALL4 proteins in two cell lines were detected by Western Blotting. RESULTS: MTT assay showed bortezomib inhibited the proliferations of two cell lines in a time-and-does manner. TF1 and NB4 cells' 48 h IC50 were (29.15 ± 0.55) and (30.55 ± 0.74) nmol · L-1 respectively. Flow cytometry showed bortezomib could induce apoptosis of two cell lines in a dose-dependent manner. Immunocytochemistry analysis revealed that both of two cell lines expressed SALL4 proteins which located in cell nucleus. Real-time PCR demonstrated that SALL4 genes were down-regulated after cells were treated by different concentrations(10, 30, 50 nmol · L-1) of bortezomib for 24 h, and bortezomib 50 nmol · L-1 groups' genes were down-regulated to 45.11% (TF1) and 69.77% (NB4) respectively comparing with the control groups (P < 0.05). Western blotting revealed that both of the cell lines expressed SALL4B proteins and which could be inhibited by bortezomib in a time-and-does manner. CONCLUSION: Bortezomib can significantly inhibit two cell lines proliferation and induce apoptosis, meanwhile down-regulate the expressions of SALL4 gene.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of herb therapy for benefiting qi and removing blood stasis on ultrastructure of vascular endothelial cells (VECs) and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) of uterine endometrium in rabbits with copper intrauterine device. METHODS: Fifty-six rabbits were randomly divided into seven groups, which were normal control group, sham-operation group, untreated group, indomethacin-treated group and low-, medium- and high-dose Gonghuan Zhixueling Recipe (GHZXLR)-treated groups. The rabbits in the last five groups were operated with copper IUD insertion and then orally given distilled water, indomethacin and low-, medium- and high-dose GHZXLR respectively for at least one week. Rabbits in the normal control group and sham-operation group were given distilled water orally. The ultrastructure of VECs and VSMCs of uterine endometrium in rabbits was observed by transmission electron microscopy. RESULTS: The morphological changes of VSMCs revealed intracellular edema, organelle disintegration and decrease of organelle amount, or cell atrophy and vacuolar degeneration of mitochondria in the untreated group, and the amount of collagen fibers also increased outside the VSMCs. Local interstitial edema in subendothelial substance and vacuolar degeneration of mitochondria in VECs were both observed. The ultrastructural damages to the mitochondria, Golgi bodies and myofilament of VECs and VSMCs and the intercellular substance in GHZXLR-treated groups were slighter than those in the untreated group, while these damages had no significant differences as compared with those in the indomethacin-treated group. CONCLUSION: The Chinese herb therapy for benefiting qi for removing blood stasis has the protective effect on VECs of uterine endometrium in the rabbits with copper intrauterine device. It appears to be a good treatment for menorrhagia induced by copper IUD insertion.
