AIM:To observe effects of Jiming Powder(Semen arecae,Pericarpium citri reticulatae,Fructus Chaenomelis,Fructus Evodiae,Folium Perillae,Radix Platycodonis,and Rhizoma Zingiberis recens) on anticoagulation and hemorheology and on the circadian variations in order to verify the rational practice of timing administering the drug by our ancestors. METHODS:The effect of Jiming Powder on clotting time(CT) was observed by using glass-tube method in mice. Quick test was used to determine the prothrombin time(PT) and circadian variations in rats. The experimental animal models of blood stasis syndrome were prepared by subcutaneous injection of adrenaline in combination with ice water bath for observing the effect of Jiming Powder on hemorheology in such types of animals,and the maximum rate of platelet aggregation was determined by method of Born turbidimetry. RESULTS:Jiming Powder could significantly delay CT and PT characteristic of circadian rhythm. As compared with the administration at daytime,CT and PT were greatly prolonged during the night. Besides,the hemorheological parameters were improved markedly in blood,plasma and fibrinogen viscosity,which suggested that the drug administration was more effective during the night than daytime. Also,the findings showed that Jiming Powder could prevent platelet aggregation induced by adenosine diphosphate. CONCLUSION:Jiming Powder plays a role in anticoagulation and improves the indication of hemorhelogy in the blood-stasis rats model,showing dosing time-dependent.

Objective To determine the risk factors for acute kidney injury following type Stanford A Aortic Dissection surgeryies.Methods It's a restrospective study.The clinical data of 176 patients undergoing type Stanford A Aortic Dissection surgery from Septerary 2009 to December 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 115 males and 61 females with mean ages(43.20 ± 10.14)years old.The patients were divided into two groups according to whether AKI occurred after operation.Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to evaluate possible pre-,intra-,and post-operative parameters associated with AKI according to AKI Network.Results Among all the patients,AKI occurred in 78 (44.32％),21 (11.93％) of whom underwent continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT).In hospital mortality was 3.41％ in all discharges while 6.45％ in AKI patients (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that increased age,pre-operative left ventricular insufficiency,pre-operative renal insufficiency and long extracorpeal circulation (CPB) time ＞ 140 min were risk factors for the development of AKI.AKI is the most common complication of type Stanford A Aortic Dissection surgery,and is the risk factor of mortality after the surgery.It is important to enhance peri-operative protection of the renal function.

Objective To explore the clinical effects of single-agent Xeloda (Capecitabine) therapy and the related risk factors in patients with advanced colorectal cancer. Method Seventy-eight patients with advanced colorectal cancer were treated with oral Xeloda, 1250 mg/m 2 twice daily, on days 1-14 every 21 days. At least 2 cycles were administered. The short-term clinical effects were evaluated, and the related risk factors were tested by Logistic regression analysis. Results The overall response rate was 32.05%with 5 cases complete response (CR), 20 cases partial response (PR), 31 cases stable disease (SD), 22 cases progress disease (PD). The Logistic regression analysis showed that the age (OR=1.52, 95%CI 1.015~2.319), fast blood glucose (OR=1.30, 95%CI 1.483~3.677), albumin (OR=1.98, 95%CI 1.526~2.572), ALT (OR=2.37, 95%CI 1.621~3.509) and AST (OR=2.21, 95%CI 1.526~2.572) were independent risk factors for inefficient treatment. Conclusion The single-agent Xeloda (Capecitabine) is an efficacious treatment for the patients with advanced colorectal cancer. However, the inefficient rate is also high and it relates to a variety of factors. We should comprehensively evaluate the patients to improve the short-term clinical effects.

AIM:To study the sedation, diuresis and anticoagulation effects of Ji-Ming-San (JMS) in animal models for exploring the circadian variations of the dosing action and verifying the rationality of administering JMS on special time. METHODS: The sedation effect and circadian difference were determined by observing the time session of ambulation, raising double-forefoot test and autonomic activity of model mice. The diuretic effect and the circadian variation in rats were examined by metabolic cage test while the anticoagulation and the circadian change were observed by glass test. RESULTS: JMS produced significant sedation effect by reducing time session of ambulation, raising upper limbs frequencies/time and autonomic activity and the built-in rhythm with autonomic activity disappeared after JMS administration. JMS had satisfactory diuretic effect and total urinary output in water-loaded rats was increased after dosing. The diuretic effect of dosing showed a circadian rhythm with more significant output during the night than that during the daytime. Also, JMS prolonged the clotting time significantly and the action exhibited circadian difference. As compared with administration at the night, the clotting time was more prolonged at the daytime. CONCLUSION: JMS can produce obvious sedation, diuresis and anticoagulation effects with varied circadian rhythm. The findings suggest that the effect of administering JMS is better at the end of rest phase than other time session.

BACKGROUND:Stem cel transplantation is a promising treatment of advanced liver disease, and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel s have become another kind of popular cel s fol owing bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the influence of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel transplantation on blood biochemical indices of liver cirrhosis rats.
METHODS:Sixty rats were equal y randomized into normal control, model and cel transplantation groups. Model rats of liver cirrhosis were made in the latter two groups through intragastric administration of carbon tetrachloride. One week after successful modeling, rats were given intraperitoneal injection of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel suspension in the cel transplantation group, and given normal saline in the other two groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the normal control group, the model group showed a significant increase in the levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin, total protein in liver tissues, serum level of malondialdehyde, 15-minute indocyanine green retention rate and degree of hepatic fibrosis, and a significant decrease in serum albumin level, serum albumin/globulin, levels of glutathione peroxidase and cyclic guanosine monophosphate in liver tissues. On the contrary, these indicators were al improved in the cel transplantation group compared with the model group.
Moreover, CM-Dil-positive cel s were visible in the liver tissue of rats undergoing adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel transplantation. Al these findings indicate that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel transplantation can reduce liver cirrhosis in rats by acting on blood biochemistry levels.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of Xuebijing(XBJ)on the injury of vascular endothelial cells(VEC)induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS),and to study the mechanisms of the production of nitric oxide (NO)and the expressions of inducible nitric oxide sytnhase (iNOS)and signal transduction under XBJ intervention condition.Methods The cultured VEC were divided into control group, LPS (1 mg · L-1 )group, LPS (1 mg·L-1)+XBJ(25 g·L-1)group,LPS(1 mg·L-1)+pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate(PDTC,20μmol·L-1) group;XBJ and PDTC were administrated 1 h before incubation of with LPS.Western blotting method was used to detect the expressions of iNOS and NF-κB p65 protein.The level of NO in the supernatant was measured by Griess reagent.Results Comparaed with control group,the NO level and the expression levels of iNOS protein and NF-κB p65 protein in VEC in LPS group were significantly increased(P<0.01).Compared with LPS group,the NO level and the expression levels of iNOS protein and NF-κB p65 protein in VEC in LPS+XBJ group were significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01);the NO level and the expression levels of NF-κB p65 protein and iNOS protein in VEC in LPS+PDTC group were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).There were no significant differences of the NO levels and the expression levels of iNOS protein between LPS+XBJ group and LPS +PDTC group (P>0.05),but the expression level of NF-κB p65 protein in LPS+PDTC group was lower than that in LPS+XBJ group(P<0.05).Conclusion XBJ can inhibit the production of NO and the expression of iNOS protein in VEC;its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the activation of NF-κB to control inflammation.
