Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2017;41(4):282-284
[Objective]On the origin and development of stroke research and interpretation. [Methods]Reading from pre-Qin period to the Ming and Qing dynasties in the ancient literature related to stroke the literature, according to the treatment of disease, etiology, pathogenesis, therapeutic principle, prevention and curing of Chinese medical induction, summary, combining the origin of stroke, analysis of pathogenesis and therapeutic principle of stroke, and it is filtered and classified the ancient literature and research, summarizes the extraction.[Methods]Reading and analyzing ancient documents related to the stroke.[Results]The termstrokeand theoretical source inNei Jing, the treatment based on syndrome differentiation is initiated Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases.Jin and Yuan dynasties developed stroke theory;modern perfect stroke syndrome differentiation system. Previously, during the Tang and Song dynasties, it is mainly based on the theories of vital Qi deficiency,pathogenic wind into the argument, treatment of strengthening the body and removal of scattered wind. After the Jin Yuan dynasties, they are internal injury based, wind from the endogenous theories. the treatment is mainly focused on internal injuries. [Conclusion]That ancient physicians paid attention to the etiology and treatment of stroke more, keeping in good health and prevention mentioned less, so we should pay attention to the prevention and recovery.

The compounds were separated and purified by repeated column chromatographic methods on silica gel and HPLC, and the chemical structures of compounds were determined by spectral data analyses. Fourteen compounds were obtained and identified as tert-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(R)-byakangelicin (1), (2"S) -3"-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-oxypeucedanin hydrate (2), marmesinin (3), sec-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-byakangelicin (4), isofraxidin-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (5), benzyl-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (6), 8-O-β-D-glycopyranosylxanthotoxol (7), prenyl-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (8), scopolin (9), (2' R) -5'-hydroxymarmesin-5'-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (10), (2'S,3'R) -3'-hydroxymarmesinin (11), skimmin (12), benzyl-O-β-D-apiofuranosyl-(1"--> 6')-β-D-glucopyranoside (13), and decuroside IV (14). Among them, compounds 2, 5, 6, 8, and 10-13 were obtained from the roots of title plant for the first time.

Objective To evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for patients with solid tumors under sedation and analgesia. Methods Sedation and analgesia were induced with i.v. fentanyl(1?g/kg) and midazolam (0.03mg/kg) in 81 patients with benign or malignant solid tumors. High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation treatment was then performed. The short-term effect and adverse events of sedatives and analgesics, as well as the effect of HIFU ablation treatment were observed. Results One hundred and twelve HIFU courses were performed on 81 patients, among them 23 patients with benign solid tumors received 26 courses of treatment, and 58 patients with malignant solid tumors, received 86 courses of treatment. A total of 153 foci were targeted. It was estimated that in 81% of all the patients, the tumor size was decreased by 50%, including 72.2%(52/72)of malignant tumors and 97.4%(37/38)of benign tumors. Tumor markers of malignant tumors decreased by more than 50% in 81.3%(13/16) of patients, and remission rate of tumor-related symptoms reached 77.9% (30/39). The adverse events during sedation and analgesia were nausea, reduction in the respiratory rate, visual hallucination, and that of HIFU were pain and swelling. No comblications with severity surpassing grade Ⅲ were found as a result of either sedatives, analgesics or HIFU treatment. Conclusion Sedation and analgesia are relatively safe, effective and feasible during HIFU treatment for solid tumor.

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) encompasses many different hereditary retinal degenerations that are caused by a vast array of different gene mutations and have highly variable disease presentations and severities.Work over the past 25 years has resulted in the identification of genes responsible for about 50% of the RP cases,and it's predicted that most of the remaining disease-causing genes will be identified by the year 2020 or most likelysooner.This marked acceleration is the result of dramatic improvements in DNA-sequencing technologies and the associated analysis.The advent of two recent innovations, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated nuclease-9 (Cas-9) mediated genome editing,are changing the landscape of RP research, with causative genes being identified at an accelerated rate withgreat potential to translate these discoveries into personalized therapeutic strategies.
