Objective To establish hypoxic-ischemic brain damaged (HIBD) rat model,investigate whether H2S and cystathionine-β-synthase (CBS), the key enzyme for its generation, may be a mediator of electro-acupuncture(EA) stimulation treatment for HIBD. Methods Thirty-two healthy Sprague-Dawley neonatal rats were divided into four groups randomly: sham control group ( n = 8 ); sham + EA group ( n =8); HIBD control group ( n = 8); and HIBD + EA group ( n = 8 ). HIBD rat models were established on their 7-day-old. From the next day ,rats of sham + EA group and HIBD + EA group were electric stimulated 30 min daily for 14 d,BAIHUI and DAZHUI as the acupoints. Control ones were just fixed at the same time,without acupuncture. The rats were sacrificed on the 22 nd day, one day after the treatment course. Cortical H2S concentration was measured by sensitive sulphur electrode assay. The CBS protein expression was measured by western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry for localization. Results The concentration of cortical H2S in HIBD control group was (26. 83 ± 4. 31 ) nmol/mg protein, which was significantly higher than that of sham control group[(22. 78 ± 1.54) nmol/mg protein]( P ＜ 0. 01 ). The H2 S levels in HIBD + EA group and sham + EA group were ( 18.08 ± 2.71 ) nmol/mg protein and ( 18.91 ± 2. 78 ) nmol/mg protein, respectively. Compared with corresponding control group, they were much lower( P ＜ 0. 01 ). The expression of CBS protein in rats with EA stimulation decreased in cortex compared to corresponding control group( P ＜0. 05 ).Conclusion EA can down-resulate H2S/CBS pathway. This may be one of the mechanisms of how EA contributes to the recovery of brain damage.

Objective To Analyze the distribution characteristics of Hyperthyroidism's syndrome and the relationship between symptoms and thyroid hormones. Methods The TCM syndromes of a total of 78 patients with hyperthyroidism were differentiated. The relationship between syndrome and general condition of patients (gender and age, etc.) were analyzed;correlation between symptoms and thyroid hormones were also studied. Results Of all 78 patients, patients with yin deficiency and hyperactive yang accounted for 43.6%; patients with internal disturbance of phlegm-fire accounted for 30.8 %; and patients with hypteracitivity of heart-fire and liver-fire accounted for 25.6%. The severity of all the symptoms showed positive correlation with hyroid hormones (the value of r is positive, P＜0.05); and no linear relationship with TSH (P＞0.05).Conclusion The syndrome of yin deficiency and hyperactive yangI was the most common syndrome type. Thyroid hormones had direct proportion with the severity of syndrome.

Objective This clinical research will compare the constitution of patients with positive and negative family history in order to study on the relation between TCM constitution and the familial hereditary in type 2 diabetes patients.Methods The data of family history,general conditions,Chinese medical constitutional types of 231 type 2 DM patients in Dongzhimen Hospital were collected and analyzed.Results Among patients with family history,the number of patients' mothers with diabetes was significantly more than that of fathers'(x2=22.319,P＜0.05).There was a positive correlation between phlegm-dampness constitution r=0.215,blood stagnant constitution r=0.268 and female patients' family history(P＜0.01).And there was a positive correlation between the familial hereditary of DM and the familial hereditary of hypertension r=0.328,hyperlipidemia r=0.223,obesity r=0.151 and coronary artery diseases r=0.215.Conclusion Among type 2 DM,female had stronger familial hereditary.It indicated that diabetic mothers had a stronger influence on following generations than diabetic fathers,especially those female patients of phlegm-dampness constitution or blood stagnant constitution.There was inner correlation between the familial hereditary of DM and the familial hereditary of hypertension,hyperlipidemia,obesity and coronary artery disease.

Objective To evaluate the effect of endoluminal treatment for Budd Chiari syndrome (BCS) .Methods In 36 patients with BCS were treated by inferior vena cava(IVC) dilation and endoluminal stent placement guaded by ultrasonography, including self expanding mental Giaturco stent placement in 33 patients and pure dilation in 3 patients. Portosystemic shunts(PSSs) were followed in 13 patients with hepatic venous occlusion a week after the endoluminal treatment, including splenorenal(S R) shunts in 5 cases,and mesocaval (M C) shunts in 8 cases. Results After endoluminal procedures ,slight heart dysfunction appeared in 3 cases . After shunting ,acute pancreatitis occurred in 1 case, and upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage occurred and finally resulted in death in another case on the 10th day after PSS.All the 36 patients were followed up for 1 month to 8 years. Restenosis of the distal part of stent was found in 1 case 2 years after the operation,hepatic vein occlusion occurred in 1 case 1 year after the treament, hepatoma occurred in 1case 3 years after the treatment,and 1 patient died of C type hepatitis a year later; and 2 cases with infertility had babies 1 year later. All patients had no stent migration or occlusion of shunts .Conclusions Endoluminal therapy guarding by ultrsonography is a convenient, safe and effective method for Budd Chiari syndrome. For patients with hepatic venous occlusions, a portosystemic shunt is recommended.The above mentioned methods provide a feasible and effective means for some kinds of Budd Chiari syndrome.

Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics of brucellosis among risk population and analysis risk factors, and to provide a reference basis for prevention and treatment of brucellosis. Methods Retrospective survey method was used to collect information on brucellosis and epidemiologically confirmed cases in Tongxiang City from 2010 to 2015. The employees gender, age, occupation, job seniority, contact area, contact history to abortion cub and with or without protection measures were analyzed by single factor and multiple factors analysis, calculate odds ratio (OR) and 95%confidence interval (CI). Results Totally 1 450 people were investigated and 43 were confirmed positive (2.97%),new cases were 37 with joint pain 86.49% (32/37), low temperature 81.08%(30/37), and weak 62.16%(23/37) as the main body symptoms. Most people were infected in the summer season, accounted for 8.07%(18/223); female cases were relatively higher, accounted for 5.38% (12/223);people younger than 30 years old had the highest positive rate 24.14%(7/29);people working in the processing of animal products had the highest positive rate 6.42%(12/187). The employees gender, age, the types of work, the job seniority, the district distribution and the season were all related to the prevalence of the disease (all P< 0.05) analyzed by Chi-square test and Fisher's exact probability method. By single factor analysis, gender (male, OR =0.397, 95%CI:0.178-0.884), age (31-60 years old, OR = 0.254, 95%CI:0.081-0.796), and types of work (processing personnel, OR =3.211, 95%CI: 1.424 - 7.238) and contacting young animal (OR = 3.544, 95%CI: 1.729 - 7.264), practitioners operating tool (OR=0.231, 95%CI:0.070-0.766) were related to the prevalence of the disease;by multiple factors analysis, contacting young animal (OR=5.198, 95%CI:2.078-13.000) was a risk factor for brucellosis abortion, and practitioners operating tools (OR = 0.161, 95%CI: 0.045 - 0.577) were brucellosis protective factors such as wearing gloves . Conclusion We suggest to strengthen health education and health promotion in professional key populations, do a good job in the epidemic monitoring and promote occupational protection awareness, and decrease the infection of brucellosis.
