The clinical efficacy and safety of auricular acupuncture (AA) for treatment of primary insomnia was evaluated. After a comprehensive retrieval in domestic and foreign databases, literatures were strictly screened and Revman 5.2 software was applied to perform a Meta-analysis on eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The evidence quality was assessed with GRADE profiler 3.6 software. As a result, 8 articles were included involving 894 patients. Compared among AA and sham AA, placebo AA, blank control, there was significant difference in Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) [WMD = -3.48, 95% CI (-3.96, -3.00)], sleep latency LWMD = -10.14, 95% CI (-17.16, -3.12)] and sleep awakening times [WMD = -9.98, 95% CI (-1.10,-0.48)]. Compared between AA and western medication, there was significant difference in PSQI [WMD = -3.62, 95% CI (-4.59, -2.65)]. The evidence quality was moderate in AA vs. sham AA, placebo AA or blank control, while that of the rest was extremely low. No reports of adverse events were described in all studies. In conclusion, for the treatment of primary insomnia, AA could effectively improve sleep quality, but due to the low evidence quality, cautious attitude should be taken on this conclusion, and clinical trials with large sample and high quality were needed in the further.

Objective To investigate the clinical status of 1242 patients with diabetic kidney diseases (DKD) during their first hospitalization,and to analyze the risk factors of prognosis,so as to provide reference for clinical practice. Methods Retrospective case-control study was performed.Clinical data of 1242 patients diagnosed as DKD in first hospitalizaton from January 2003 to December 2008 were reviewed,and patients were followed up to realize the prognosis.Multiple regression analysis was carried out to screen the risk factors. Results Most of the patients were Mogensen stage Ⅳ or Ⅴ in their first hospitalization,accounting for 77.2％.24.8％ of cases was complicated with cardiocerebrovascular diseases.Scr of 36.6％ patients was higher than 176.8 μmol/L.One way ANOVA indicated that diabetes course,hemoglobin,serum albumin,Scr and Charlson index were significantly different among Mogensen stage Ⅲ, Ⅳ,Ⅴ patients.Logistic regression showed that age,albumin,Scr,cardiocerebrovascular diseases and Chalson index were risk factors for death in DKD patients (OR =1.057,0.908,1.002,2.006,1.371),but sex,diabetes course and hemoglobin were not risk factors,which was in accord with the resuh from 416 non-dialysis patients.Multiple linear regression analysis revealed serum albumin level was positively correlated with survival in non-dialysis DKD patients (P=0.003).The mean survival time was only 1.2145 year in 162 non-dialysis dead patients. Conclusions DKD patients in our hospital refer quite late,usually with poor conditions and complications.Most of DKD patients are Mogensen stage Ⅳ or Ⅴ in the first hospitalization.Age,serum albumin,Scr,cardiocerebrovascular diseases and Charlson index are risk factors of death,while gender,diabetes course and hemoglobin are not significantly correlated with death.In addition,serum albumin is positively correlated with survival time.Early diagnosis and management of risk factors are crucial for improving the prognosis of DKD patients.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of the expression of XIAP mRNA and Survivin mRNA in non-small cell lung cancer and their relationship. Methods RT-PCR was used to evaluate the expression of XIAP mRNA and Survivin mRNA in 59 cases of NSCLC and corresponding normal tissues.Results There was a significant difference in XIAP mRNA expression in primary lung and corresponding normal tissues (61.0 % vs 30.5 %, P<0.05), whereas there were no significant correlation between the XIAP mRNA expression and gender, age, smoking history, histological subtype, T stage, lymph node metastatic status and TNM stage. There was a significant difference in Survivin mRNA expression in primary lung and corresponding normal tissues (81.4 % vs 23.7 %, P<0.05), whereas there were no significant correlation between the Survivin mRNA expression and gender, age, smoking history, histological subtype, T stage, lymph node metastatic status and TNM stage. Conclusion The significant difference of XIAP mRNA and Survivin mRNA expression between the tumor and corresponding normal tissues implies they might play important roles in the carcinogenesis and progress of NSCLC and might become marker for the diagnosis and target for treatment of NSCLC.

Liver fibrosis is a common pathological process for chronic liver injury caused by multiple etiological factors and an inevitable phase leading to liver cirrhosis. According to the previous studies, hesperidin (HDN) shows a very good protective effect on CCl4-induced chemical hepatic fibrosis in rats. In this experiment, based on the findings of the previous studies, a platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-induced HSC-T6 model was established to observe the inhibitory effect of HDN on HSC-T6 proliferation. The ELISA method was adopted to detect the content of collagen I in HSC-T6 supernatant. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1, Smad2, Smad3, Smad7 and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) mRNA expressions were measured by RT-PCR; TGF-beta1 and CT-GF protein expressions in HSC-T6 were determined by Western blot, in order to study HDN's effect on TGF-beta1 signaling pathway in HSC and its potential action mechanism. The results demonstrated that HDN could notably improve HSC-T6 proliferation, Collagen I growth and TGF-beta1, Smad2, Smad3 and CTGF mRNA.expressions. After being intervened with HDN, it could notably inhibit HSC-T6 proliferation and Collagen I growth, reduce TGF-beta1, Smad2, Smad3 and CTGF mRNA and TGF-beta1, CTGF protein expressions and increase Smad7 mRNA expression. HDN's antihepatic fibrosis effect may be related to the inhibition of HSC proliferation and activation by modulating TGF-beta/Smad signaling pathway.
