The ghrelin is an endogenous ligand of the growth hormone (GH) secretagogue receptor,which can regulate the secretion of GH,stimulate the appetite,adjust the energy metabolism,and improve the cardiovascular function.Children with congenital heart disease (CHD) usually suffered from malnutrition and growth retardation,which were connected with insufficiency of energy intake,poor absorption,and increase of nutritional requirement,anatomy and the changes of hemodynamics.Many infants with CHD gradually present ventricular dysfunction and growth restriction in their early childhood,which consequently lead to severe complications.Ghrelin is valuable in the early detection of potential CHD,plays an important role in improving the state of malnutrition and protecting the cardiac function,and provides an important reference to explore the new drug therapy for CHD.This review summarized the effects and significances of ghrelin on growth and cardiac function in infants with CHD.

Objective] To study the transmission of the Ishinpo versions ,understand the prevailing version of Ishinpo. [Method] With the research methods of the Chinese traditional history and philology,collect and sort historical cited references of the Ishinpo, by paying attention to three main emendation in the transmission history of Ishinpo. [Result] Ishinpo of Nakarai is the golden version for document research. The prevailing Ansei Ishinpo version of contemporary China is based on Nakarai version,which consists of twenty seven scrolls of Hei era and three scrolls of Edo Era. Ishinpo Versions have been divided into Emperor Nakarai versions,Uji versions and Family tradition versions. There are big differences in utilization and completeness of the three version system. The Emperor Nakarai versions are relatively good, of which the Nakarai version preserves best. The Uji versions are widespread, of which the RenHe Temple version is better preserved but lacuna. There are lots of lacunas in the family tradition versions, owing to circulateed copies. [Conclusion] In the three main emendation, of Ishinpo, mostly, the Nakarai version is the source edition, the Uji version is primary edition, and the family tradition version is the secondary edition. The paper, which is useful in the transmission of the Ishinpo and thus historical process of medical exchange between China and Japan, has established the system of Ishinpo versions, defined the golden version and the prevailing version.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of postmenopausal patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia ( CIN) gradeⅡ/Ⅲand cervical cancer . Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the clinical characteristics of 57 cases of postmenopausal patients who were diagnosed as CIN grade Ⅱor above from January 2014 to September 2015.Their age ranged from 49 to 77 (58.2 ±5.6) years old, and the time of menopause ranged from 1 to 36 (9.4 ±6.9) years. Results ①In postmenopausal women with CIN Ⅱ/Ⅲ and cervical cancer, only about 1/5 (11/57, 19.3%) had clinical complaints, and nearly 2/3 (36/57, 63.2%) had smooth cervical appearance .②There were 36 cases of high-risk human papillomavirus ( HPV) (36/39, 92.3%), 20 cases of single HPV16 infection (20/36, 55.6%), 7 cases of HPV16 type and other high-risk HPV infection (7/36, 19.4%), and 9 cases of other types of high-risk HPV infection (9/36, 25.0%).③The positive rate of high-risk HPV was 92.3%(36/39) and the HPV16 positive rate was 69.2% (27/39).TCT examination showed a positive rate of high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) of only 29.6% (16/54), with significant difference (χ2 =6.686 and 14.286, P =0.010 and 0.000, respectively). Conclusions Postmenopausal women with cervical lesions usually have no obvious clinical symptoms . Gynecological examination alone is difficult to judge whether the cervical lesions exist .Strict cervical lesions screening is particularly important .

Autophagy is a powerful process for removing such proteins and for maintaining homeostasis.However,autophagy dysfunction has also been implicated in the pathogenesis of vari-ous neurodegenerative diseases,including Parkinson 's disease (PD).Recent studies have shown that TFEB could regulate au-tophagy and lysosome function through regulating the expressionof the relatedgenes.Thus,TFEB plays a key role in the occur-rence of Parkinson's disease.Therefore,this article will make a review of the regulatory mechanism of TFEB and its role in Par-kinson's disease.

Objective The purposes of the present study are to investigate the effects and mechanisms of Bu Shen Ning Xin Yi Jing Pill on premature ovarian failure (POF) through a clinical study. Methods Sixty women with POF were administered and randomized into the treatment group and the control group. Every group had thirty cases. Patients in the treatment and control groups were requested to have the Bu Shen Ning Xin Yi Jing Pill and the Liu Wei Di Huang Pill, respectively. Six-month duration was considered as a therapeutic course. The serum levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and estradiol (E2) were determined by the chemistry luminescence method. Differences between the treatment and control groups were investigated.Results Improved menstruation were revealed in both groups and the treatment group showed significant improvement than the control group (P<0.01). In the treatment group, serum FSH levels sharply dropped after treatment, while the serum E2 levels significantly elevated compared with those of prior-treatment (P<0.01) . The total effective rate in the treatment group was 70% (21 cases), whereas 40% in the control group (12 cases). The difference had statistical significance (P<0.01) .Conclusion The BuShen NingXin YiJing Pill is effective in the treatment of premature ovarian failure via significant improvements in the clinical symptoms and balance of the endocrine hormones.
