OBJECTIVE: To study the feasibility of quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker (QAMS) in determination of flavones in Shuanghuanglian preparations by comparing the results assayed by QAMS and external standard method (ESM). METHODS: The analysis was performed on a Xtimate™ C18 column (4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 μm)with methanol and water containing 0.2% phosphoric acid as the mobile phase in gradient elution. The flow rate was set at 1.0 mL · min-1. The UV detector wavelength was 274 nm, and the column temperature was 30°C. RESULTS: Within the linear ranges, the analysis results showed no significant difference between QAMS and ESM. CONCLUSION: The QAMS method is credible and will be a new quality evaluation pattern for the determination of multiple flavones in Shuanghuanglian preparations.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of early rehabilitation on disability of motion and cognition.Methods107 patients were randomly divided into two groups,rehabilitation group (51 cases) and control group (56 cases).Patients in rehabilitation group were given regular early rehabilitation,while all patients in both groups were given usual clinical treatment. The Barthel Index (BI), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Mini-mental Status Examination (MMSE) were used to evaluate these two groups before and 3 months after treatment. ResultsAfter treatment, the scores of BI, FMA and MMSE were improved significantly(P<0.05) in rehabilitation group compared with that before treatment, so did that of BI, FMA in control group(P<0.05).The scores of BI、FMMS、MMSE in rehabilitation group improved significantly compared with that in control group(P<0.05).ConclusionEarly rehabilitation may obviously improve the motive and cognitive function and increase the quality of living of hemiplegia after stroke.

Objective To learn the existing state of Keshan disease and its trend in Baoji City,and to provide a scientific basis for control of the disease.Methods Feng,Qianyang,Linyou and Long Counties,the Keshan disease affected areas were selected to carry out the case study,and Keshan cases were searched from all registered cases of myocardial patients of the past three years at county-level medical institutions and hospitals of townships(towns).Thirteen villages affected by Keshan disease in Qianyang,Fengxiang,Feng,Linyou and Long Counties were selected as monitoring points to carry out a intensified monitoring.All subjects were surveyed by comprehensive clinical physical examination and 12-lead ECG tracings,and they were diagnosed according to the Keshan disease diagnostic criteria.Ten households were selected randomly in each monitoring point(village),and self-produced wheat samples and adult subject's occipital hair samples were collected for detecting selenium levels.Results Seven hundred and forty-six cardiac cases which containing 17 cases of chronic Keshan disease were discovered in 32 medical institutions,and there were no acute and subacute type of Keshan disease patients.Five thousand seven hundred and twenty-three subjects were examined in the 13 monitoring sites,and 65 cases of Keshan disease were diagnosed which including 17 cases of slow and 48 cases of potential Keshan disease,and no acute or subacute case was found.The total detection rate was 1.14％,and the detection rate ranged from 0 to 2.86％.Hair selenium mean was 0.420 mg/kg; wheat selenium mean was 0.079 mg/kg.Conclusions The Keshan disease detection rate of Baoji City is at a low level.The selenium level of local residents has reached the level of non-endemic area.Constant detection of patient with Keshan disease means various control measures should be reinforced.The comprehensive monitoring program,such as monitoring people's in vivo and in vitro selenium level and others,should be established as soon as possible.

Objective: To learn the health literacy status, trend and associated factors of Ningbo residents from 2015 to 2019, so as to provide basis for developing health policies and interventions. Methods: The monitoring data of health literacy of Ningbo residents from 2015 to 2019 was collected. The health literacy level was calculated and standardized by the population data of the sixth national census of Ningbo in 2010; five-year absolute growth and growth rate were used to reflect the changing trend. Multivariate logistic regression model was employed to analyze the influencing factors for the health literacy level. Results: The health literacy levels from 2015 to 2019 were 15.44%, 21.73%, 22.41%, 27.60% and 30.03%, with an annual increase trend ( P<0.05 ). The five-year absolute growth and growth rate were 14.59% and 94.49%. The Results of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the year ( OR=1.158, 95%CI: 1.132-1.184 ), age ( 25-<35岁 years, OR=1.235, 95%CI: 1.039-1.468; 35-<45岁 years, OR=1.416, 95%CI: 1.193-1.681; 45-<55岁 years, OR=1.221, 95%CI: 1.024-1.455 ) , education level ( primary school, OR=1.790, 95%CI: 1.461-2.195; junior high school, OR=2.574, 95%CI: 2.102-3.154; high school/vocational high school/technical secondary school, OR=4.863, 95%CI: 3.943-5.998; college or above, OR=8.829, 95%CI: 7.109-10.965 ) , urban areas ( OR=0.934, 95%CI: 0.874-0.998 ) and occupation ( farmers, OR=0.692, 95%CI: 0.608-0.787; workers, OR=0.746, 95%CI: 0.664-0.837; enterprise staff, OR=0.822, 95%CI: 0.745-0.906; others, OR=1.106, 95%CI: 1.009-1.211 ) were the influencing factors for health literacy level. Conclusion The health literacy level of Ningbo residents shows an upward trend from 2015 to 2019, which are associated with age, education level, area and occupation.

Objective To study the (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) function on the proliferation of T cells derived from the peripheral blood and synovial fluid of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and RA-related cytokine levels and the role of EGCG on RA synovial fibroblasts (FLS) proliferation was investigated. Methods ① Mononuclear cells from RA peripheral blood (30 cases) and synovial fluid (23 cases)were isolated. Blank group, negative control group, positive control methotrexate (MTX) group and therapeutic group with three different concentrations of EGCG were set up. Incorporated isotope 3H was used to test T cell proliferation from RA-PBMC and SFMC. ELISA assay was used to test cytokine (TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-1, IL-6 and IL-17A) levels. ② MTT assay was used to test FLS proliferation from RA synovial tissue (8 cases).Results ① The CPM value of the high-dose group of EGCG in the peripheral blood and synovial fluid of RA patients was [ ( 15 136±2910), ( 11 587±3135 ) ], which was declined significantly than the control group (42856±2127) (P＜0.01). The levels of TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-1, IL-6 and IL-17A in the high-dose group of EGCG in the peripheral blood were [(321±13), (298±20), (132±12), (197±7), (59±8) pg/ml], which were decreased significantly than those of the control group [ (458±28), (505±26), (346±28), (405±25),(109±13) pg/ml ] (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 ). The levels of TNF-o, IFN-γ, IL-1, IL-6 and IL-17A in the highdose group of EGCG in the synovial fluid were [(41.4±2.9), (182±16), (56.3±11.0), (34.2±1.9), (44±8)pg/ml ], which was decre-ased significantly than the control group [ ( 388.3± 19.3 ), (469±20), ( 104.2±17.8 ),( 114.5±4.8), ( 104±11 ) pg/ml] (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 ). ② The level (A) of the high-dose group of EGCG in the FLS was (0.08±0.02), which was declined significantly than the blank group (0.27±0.04) (P＜0.05).Conclusion ① In vitro EGCG can inhibit T cell proliferation from peripheral blood and synovial fluid of RA patients and the TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-1, IL-6 and IL-17A secretion are decreased. ② In vitro EGCG can inhibit the proliferation of RA FLS.

[Summary] According to the cutpoint of plasma triglycerides concentration ≥ 1.7 mmol/L,waist circumference ≥85 cm in men or ≥80 cm in women,459 patiens with type 2 diabetes mellitus were divided into four groups:normal waist circumference and triglycerides,normal waist circumference and hypertriglyceridemia,abdominal obesity and normal triglycerides,and hypertriglyceridemic-waist (HTWC) group.The results showed that body mass index,waist circumference,systolic blood pressure,triglycerides,microalbuminuria,and homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) in HTWC group were higher than those in non-HTWC groups (all P＜0.01),as well as higher diabetic nephropathy incidence (P＜0.05).Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that HTWC was an independent risk factor of diabetic nephropathy (OR =2.070,95 ％ CI 1.195-3.586).
