To carry out research on the construction of standardized digital research platform of traditional Chinese medicine.Beginning from the consolidation of data usage resources,the strengthening of environmental construction,the improvement of quality on database creation and the perfection of training mechanism,the construction of standardized digital research platform of traditional Chinese medicine can be improved with the times,adapting to the times and meeting the demands of society.To meet the demands,the construction of digital scientific research foundation platform was perfected by improving quality and emphasizing on application.The service capabilities of standardized Chinese medical information can be promoted by establishing a new information scientific research model.

This article discussed the library services for readers from their needs of TCM ancient literature.We believed the library service should focus on the readers needs to elevate its knowledge service ability,to establish new service mode,and to meet the TCM ancient literature needs of readers greatly.

OBJECTIVETo investigate clinical and epidemiological characteristics of hospitalized severe acute respiratory illnesses (SARI) patients under 15 years old registered by sentinel hospitals at 10 cities and risk factors analysis of severe illness.

METHODSThe objects of this study were 2 937 SARI patients under 15 years old registered by sentinel surveillance in internal wards, pediatrics wards and intensive care units (ICU) of 10 sentinel hospitals in 10 cities during the period from December 2009 to June 2014. We also collected case report form (CRF) of them and their throat swabs for influenza testing. The inclusion criteria was hospitalized patients who were admitted by surveillance departments, registered by SARI surveillance system, under 15 years old, meeting SARI case definition and with complete CRF. Rank-sum test was used to compare the difference of age, the duration including from onset to admission, hospital stay and from onset to discharging/death between mild illness and severe illness. Chi-square test was used to compare the difference of demographic characteristics, influenza psoitive rate, vaccination rate of influenza, chronic medical conditions and clinical characteristics between mild illness and severe illness. Logistic regression was used to analysis risk factors associated with severe illness by two stratifications from SARI surveillance protocol (< 2 years old and ≥ 2 years old).

RESULTSAmong 2 937 SARI patients under 15 years old, 97.7% (2 872/2 937) was mild illnesses, and 2.3% (65/2 937) was severe illnesses. 78.8% (2 315/2 937) was under 5 years old. The median ages of severe illness and mild illness were 0.4 and 2.0 years old (U = -6.23, P < 0.001). The proportions of severe illness and mild illness with at least one chronic medical condition were 32.3% (21/65) and 8.4% (240/2 872) (χ² = 45.03, P < 0.001). The positive rate of influenza virus was 6.5% (190/2 937), which was 6.5% (186/2 858) for mild illness and 6.2% (4/65) for severe illness (χ² = 0.08, P = 0.961). The proportion of seasonal influenza vaccination was 1.5% (42/2 853), which was 1.5% (42/2 788) for mild illness and higher than that for severe illness (0) (χ² = 6.09, P = 0.048). For under 2 years old patients, age < 11 months and with at least one chronic medical condition were risk factors for severe SARI illness, and the risk for SARI patients who was 12-23 months and without medical condition was 14.71 (5.35-40.44) and 5.61 (2.96-10.63). For ≥ 2 years old patients, age, with at least one chronic medical condition and seasonal influenza vaccination history have no association with severe illness, OR (95% CI) was 0.92 (0.80-1.05), 0.67 (0.09-5.05) and 0.85 (0.31-2.35), respectively.

CONCLUSIONMost of SARI patients registered by 10 urban sentinel hospitals were patients under 5 years old. Age < 11 months and with at least chronic medical conditions were possible risk factors of severe illness of SARI patients.

Objective To study the effective fraction and mechanism of Lycium barbarum leaves on improving learning and memory ability of subacute aging mice induced by D-galactose injection.Methods The model of subacute aging mice was developed by injection of D-galactose subcutaneously,and different extracts of Lycium barbarum leaves were prepared.The effects of the extracts of Lycium barbarum leaves on the learning and memory ability of model mice were evaluated by Y maze experiment and new object recognition experiment.The pathomorphological changes of hippocampus in mice were observed by hematoxylin-eosin and Nissl staining.The levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF),nerve growth factor(NGF),glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor(GDNF),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interferon-γ(IFN-γ)and interleukin-10(IL-10)in hippocampus of mice were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and the contents of glutathione(GSH)and malondialdehyde(MDA)in hippocampus of mice were detected by related assay kits.Detection of apoptosis in the hippocampal region of mouse brain tissue using the TUNEL method.Western blotting analysis was used to detect the expressions of antioxidant proteins Nrf2,HO-1 and apoptotic proteins Caspase-3,Caspase-9 in hippocampus of mice.Results The water extraction part and 80%alcohol precipitation supernatant part of Lycium barbarum leaves significantly improved the learning and memory ability of model mice,improved the pathological damage of hippocampus in mice,increased the number of Nissl bodies in hippocampus of mice,and promoted the expression of neurotrophic factors BDNF,NGF and GDNF,and promoted the expression of neurotrophic factors BDNF,NGF and GDNF.Pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α,IL-1β and IFN-γ expression declines while anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 expression rises.The activity of SOD and the expression of GSH were increased,and the expression of MDA was decreased.Increase the expression of Nrf2 and HO-1 antioxidant proteins;reduce the expression of Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 apoptosis pathway proteins.Inhibition of apoptosis in the hippocampal region of mouse brain tissue using a model.Conclusion The water extracts and 80%alcohol precipitation supernatant extracts of Lycium barbarum leaves are the effective fractions of Lycium barbarum leaves to improve the learning and memory ability of D-galactose-induced subacute aging mice,and its mechanism might be related to the inhibition of neuronal apoptosis caused by oxidative stress and inflammation.

OBJECTIVETo identify clinical characteristics of hospitalized laboratory-confirmed influenza cases of children under 15 years old, and their risk factors of influenza infection.

METHODSAnalyzing the reports of hospitalized laboratory-confirmed influenza cases of children under 15 years old who were detected by the sentinel surveillance systems in 10 provinces from December 2009 to June 2014. Such data as their demographic, medical history, clinical symptoms and signs, treatment and outcome were collected using questionnaires, with their clinical characteristics and their risk factors of influenza infection described.

RESULTSOf the 2 937 severe acute respiratory infection inpatients, 190 (6.5%) were laboratory-confirmed influenza cases. 123 (64.7%) of such confirmed cases were male, and 139 (73.2%) were children under 5 years old, with age median of 3.0 years (IQR: 1.0-5.0 years). 20 (10.5%) of them had at least one chronic medical condition, mostly chronic cardiovascular disease (3.2%), immunosuppressive disease (3.2%), and cancer/tumor (2.6%). Most common clinical symptoms of the cases were fever (92.6%) and cough (88.8%), of which abnormal pulmonary auscultation (51.1%) and abnormal chest X-ray performance (36.1%) were the most common clinical signs. 29 cases (15.8%) had complications, of which pneumonia (15.3%) was most common. 16 cases (8.6%) used antiviral drugs, and 4 cases (2.2%) were admitted into ICU. Risk factor analysis suggested that age < 6 months (OR = 0.406, 95% CI: 0.203-0.815) was a protective factor against influenza infection; and age 5-9 years old (OR = 2.535, 95% CI: 1.059-6.066) was a risk factor for influenza infection.

CONCLUSIONHospitalized laboratory-confirmed influenza cases were found mostly in children under 5 years old. Risk exposure for influenza infection varied among age groups.
