Sample of Pingle Jiegu Dan was extracted with methanol, n-butyl ethanol and absorbed with coarse-hole resin, and its total saponin content of notoginseng was determined with spectrophotometry. The result was reproducible. This method effectively excludes the interferential elements in a complex preparation and can be employed as a method for quantitative analysis. Meanwhile, it also provides a reference for the quantitative analysis of preparation containing notoginseng.

Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy of Yanshu compound sophora flavescens injection (Yanshu injection) combined with paclitaxel and cisplatin (TP) regimen in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods One hundred and sixty-two patients with NSCLC admitted to the Department of Oncology of Danyang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from May 2014 to June 2018 were enrolled, all of their definite diagnosis was based on pathological or cytological examinations, and they were divided into two groups by the administration type, 81 cases in each group. The western medicine treatment group (western group) was treated with TP regimen alone, 3 weeks constituting 1 therapeutic course, and 3 consecutive courses were treated; based on the treatment of western drug TP regimen, the integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine treatment group (combined group) was additionally and simultaneously given Yanshu injection for consecutive 2 weeks. After treatment, the clinical efficacy and incidence of adverse reactions of the two groups were observed. Results The total effective rate in the combined group was significantly higher than that in western group [60.49% (49/81) vs. 40.74% (33/81), P <0.05]; the incidences of adverse events: alopecia, thrombocytopenia, neurotoxicity, leukopenia, nausea and vomiting, and gastrointestinal reaction in the combined group were obviously lower than those in western group [alopecia: 24.69% (20/81) vs. 60.49% (49/81), thrombocytopenia: 23.45% (19/81) vs. 40.74% (33/81), neurotoxicity: 14.81% (12/81) vs. 34.57% (28/81), leukopenia: 17.28% (14/81) vs. 62.96% (51/81), nausea and vomiting: 14.81% (12/81) vs. 60.49% (49/81), gastrointestinal reaction: 27.16% (22/81) vs. 62.96% (51/81), all P < 0.05]. Conclusion Yanshu injection combined with TP regimen is obviously effective in the treatment of advanced NSCLC, thus it is worthy to be applied clinically.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of early pancreatic duct stenting in the treatment of acute pancreatitis.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 201 patients with acute pancreatitis who were admitted to General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from October 2011 to December 2017 were collected. There were 106 males and 95 females, aged from 18 to 90 years, with a median age of 62 years. Of 201 patients, there were 178 cases with moderate severe acute pancreatitis and 23 cases with serious severe acute pancreatitis. Patients were treated with pancreatic duct stenting within 48 hours after admission. Observation indicators: (1) treatment; (2) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination and telephone interview to detect recurrence of acute pancreatitis after surgery up to June 2019. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented by Mean± SD, and the independent sample t test was used for comparison between groups, and the matched samples t test was used for comparison between before and after. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented by M( P25 ,P75) or M(range), and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between groups, and the Wilcoxon signed rank sum test was used for comparison between before and after. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test . Results:(1) Treatment: 201 patients received pancreatic duct stenting successfully, 63 of which were detected pancreatic obstruction with white-floc. The interval time from admission to surgery , operation time, time for initial oral intake, duration of hospital stay and hospital expenses of 201 patients were 10 hours(4 hours,22 hours), (35±15)minutes, 3 days(2 days,5 days), 6 days(5 days,10 days) and 3.8×10 4 yuan (3.0×10 4 yuan,4.9×10 4 yuan). Of 201 patients, 22 patients were transferred to intensive care unit, including 1 case with serious severe underwent inhospital death and 1 case with moderate severe and 7 cases with serious severe underwent auto-discharge from hospital. There were 25 cases with local complications, including 17 cases with pancreatic infectious necrosis, 7 cases with pancreatic walled-off necrosis and 1 case with spleen infarction. All 25 patients were cured after surgical inter-vention or conservative treatment. Further analysis showed that cases being transferred to intensive care unit, cases undergoing surgical treatment, the time for initial oral intake, duration of hospital stay and cases undergoing auto-discharge from hospital were 6, 11, 3 days(2 days,5 days), 6 days(5 days,10 days) and 1 for the 178 moderate severe cases, versus 16, 5, 7 days(4 days,9 days), 9 days (7 days,17 days) and 7 for the 23 serious severe cases, showing significant differences ( χ2=91.561, 6.730, Z=6.485, 5.463, χ2=47.561, P<0.05). The white blood cell count, serum amylase indexes and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ score of 201 patients were (14±6)×10 9/L, 928 U/L(411 U/L,1 588 U/L), 9±5 before admission, versus (10±4)×10 9/L, 132 U/L(72 U/L,275 U/L), 6±4 at 48 hours after admission, respectively, showing significant differences ( t=12.219, Z=11.639, t=16.016, P<0.05). (2) Follow-up: of 201 patients, 153 cases were followed up for 40 months (27 months,55 months). During the follow-up, 32 of the 153 cases had recurrence of acute pancreatitis. Conclusion:Early pancreatic duct stenting is safe and feasible in the treatment of acute pancreatitis.

AIM:To explore the mechanism of ATP synthase mitochondrial F0 complex H+ transporting,sub-unit F6(ATP5J)in affecting the metastasis of hepatoma carcinoma cells by regulating mitochondrial function-mediated cy-toskeletal remodeling.METHODS:Hepatocellular carcinoma cells Li-7 were used to construct the ATP5J overexpression and knockdown models.JC-1 staining was used to detect the mitochondrial membrane potential in each group,reactive oxygen species(ROS)levels were examined by DCHF-DA,and mitochondrial ATP fluorescence probe was used to assess mito-chondrial function.Cytoskeletal remodeling was detected with a microfilament green fluorescent probe(Actin-Tracker Green-488).Transwell assay was used to assess cell invasion ability.The expression levels of ATP5J and translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 20(TOMM20)were determined by Western blot.RESULTS:Overexpression of ATP5J up-regulated mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial ATP fluorescence intensity,induced cytoskeletal re-modeling,promoted cell invasion and TOMM20 expression,and inhibited ROS production(P＜0.01).On the contrary,knockdown of ATP5J significantly decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial ATP fluorescence inten-sity,significantly decreased cell invasion ability and TOMM20 expression,promoted ROS production and blocked cyto-skeletal remodeling(P＜0.01).CONCLUSION:ATP5J regulates mitochondrial energy transformation in hepatocellular carcinoma cells,and affects metastasis of hepatoma carcinoma cells by regulating mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial ATP production-mediated cytoskeletal remodeling through TOMM20.
