BACKGROUND:Tripterygium wilfordi and its certain monomers have exact clinical effects on rheumatoid arthritis. However, there are few studies about a systematic discussion on pharmacodynamic material basis and molecular mechanism of Tripterygium wilfordi. OBJECTIVE:To explore the pharmacodynamic material basis and molecular mechanism ofTripterygium wilfordi in treating rheumatoid arthritis. METHODS: Based on the platform of Discovery Studio 4.0, the molecular set of Tripterygium wilfordiwas built and compared with the rheumatoid arthritis drug set from Therapeutic Target Database in chemical space. After that, network pharmacology was used to explore the interactions ofTripterygium wilfordi and therapeutic targets related to rheumatoid arthritis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The molecular sets ofTripterygium wilfordi and drugs for treating rheumatoid arthritis had similar chemical space. The pharmacodynamic material basis ofTripterygium wilfordi had 46 compounds, such as celacinnine, epigalocatechin, euonine, triptolide. They could mediate inflammation, regulate immune response, inhibit cartilage and bone destruction, improve blood stasis-type rheumatoid arthritis by acting on 10 targets, such as tumor necrosis factor-α, JAK-1, matrix metaloproteinase-1, matrix metaloproteinase-3, matrix metaloproteinase-9. Computer simulation could intuitively trace out the multi-ingredient, multi-target and multi-pathway effects of Tripterygium wilfordi.

Objective To investigate the status quo of nutrition knowledge,attitude and practice(KAP) among elite female small ball athletes of Guangdong province and its influencing factors.Their serum ferritin was also observed to explore its correlation with their KAP,so as to provide evidences for formulating and implementing scientific and reasonable nutrition education schemes.Methods Fifty-four female small ball athletes,including 20 handball,20 hockey and 14 softball players,were selected to complete a self-designed diet questionnaire based on KAP education mode and their serum ferritin indicators were analyzed at the same time.Results (1)The average scores(all out of 100)of nutrition knowledge (K),attitude (A) and practice (P) were 43.64 ± 11.66 (with a failure rate of 90.7％),78.37 ± 10.21 (with the rate of excellence of 59.3％)and 63.10 ± 10.17(with a passing rate of 37.0％),and the average KAP score was 185.10 ± 23.01,with a passing rate of 44.4％.(2)The one-way ANOVA found that there were significant differences in the average A score and the total KAP score (P＜0.05) among the athletes of different small ball teams.The correlation analysis results showed that the average A score was of significant positive correlation to the average P score.Moreover,the average KAP total score was of significant correlation with sports events (P＜0.05) and the education level (P＜0.05),but not with the age,training period and exercise level(P＞0.05).The multiple stepwise regression analysis results showed that training period(P＜0.05) and sports events(P＜0.05) was the influencing factor of nutrition knowledge and attitude respectively,and that education level (P＜0.01) was the influencing factor of both nutrition practice and KAP.(3)Significant differences were found in the serum ferritin among athletes of different sports events(P＜0.05)the serum ferritin was of significant positive correlation with the nutrition knowledge(P＜0.05).Conclusion (1)The lack of sports nutrition knowledge and the unbalance of nutrition behavior are common in elite female small ball athletes,but they had a positive attitude.It is necessary to carry out a series of effective nutrition education programs to improve their sports nutrition knowledge,cultivate their good nutrition attitudes and finally formulate rational and effective nutritional intervention measures to promote the formation of healthy nutrition behavior of athletes.(2) The sport event is the key influencing factor of the nutrition attitude and dietary behaviors,which suggests that more more attention should be paid to athletes' dietary management and focus should be put on their diary behavior on no-training days and on their energy ratios control of each meal,especially breakfast and extra meals,and rational intake of snacks.(3)The incidence of iron deficiency is consistent with KAP questionnaire survey results,which indicates that it may be an effective measure to prevent iron deficiency anemia through strengthening athletes' dietary nutrition education.

Plasma levels of artial natriuretic polypeptide (ANP), cyclic GMP (cGMP), renin activity (PRA), angiotensin II (AT II) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) were measured by radioimmunoassay in 30 patients with acute heart failure (AHF), 30 chronic heart failure (CHF), 30 chronic atrial fibrillation (CAF) and 27 paraxysmal atrial fibrillation and supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). The results showed that plasma ANP and cGMP levels in all these four groups were significantly higher than those in the normal group (P

Thirty four patients with decompensated cirrhosis received umbilical blood stem cell transplantation via hepatic artery from December 2008 to August 2009. The symptoms and biochemical testing results were observed before and after stem cell transplantation. One month after the transplantation,appetite was improved in 32 patients ( 94% ), physical capacity improved in 29 patients ( 85% ) and the abdominal distention relieved in 28 patients (82%). Abdominal B-ultrasonography showed that ascites decreased in 15 cases(60% ), and disappeared in 9 cases(36% ). Six month later the mean serum albumin levels were increased from ( 30. 9 ± 0. 6) g/L to ( 35.5 ± 2. 5 ) g/L( P ＞ 0. 05 );alanine aminotransferase levels decreased from (57 ±7) U/L to (46 ± 10) U/L(P ＞0. 05);total bilirubin decreased from (47 ±5 )μmol/L to (25 ±4) μmol/L(P =0. 017);prothrombin time decreased from ( 17.9 ±0. 7) s to ( 16. 4 ±1.3) s (P ＞ 0. 05 ). Hemophagocytic syndrome developed in one case but no severe adverse reactions occurred. The results indicate that umbilical blood stem cell transplantation may improve liver function in various degrees with safety for patients with liver cirrhosis.

Objective:To explore the difference of constituents and contents of volatile oil in Perilla leaf and Perilla stem.Methods:The volatile oils of Perillaleaf and Perillastems were extracted with steam distillation method. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) technique was used to detect the chemical constituents of volatile oil from different parts of Perilla frutescens. The relative percentage content of each component was determined by peakarea normalization method, and the differences of the components and contents of volatile oils from different parts of Perilla frutescens were compared.Results:A total of 24 volatile oil components were identified in perilla leaves and 19 volatile oil components in Perilla stems. The most components in Perilla leaf and Perilla stems was 2-Hexanoyl furan. The content of 2-Hexanoyl furan in the oil of Perilla leaf reached 67.493%. The content of 2-Hexanoyl furan in the oil of Perilla stem reached 70.473%.Conclusions:The composition and content of volatile oil in different parts of Perillafrutescens are different.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the risk factors for contact dermatitis in pig farm workers.

METHODSThe cross-sectional questionnaire survey and on-site survey were conducted in pig farms raising more than 50 pigs in a county of Fujian Province, China. The study subjects were grouped based on different factors. The incidence rate was compared between groups by statistical analysis.

RESULTSOf 302 subjects, 70 (23.18%) had contact dermatitis. There was a significant difference in the prevalence of contact dermatitis between the subjects in direct contact with commercially available pannage and those in indirect contact (χ(2) = 14.552, P < 0.01). Region, season, farm scale, brand of pannage, and allergic history were not influential factors for contact dermatitis (P > 0.05 for all).

CONCLUSIONDirect contact with commercially available pannage is closely associated with contact dermatitis in pig farm workers.

Objective:To conduct meta analysis to compare the effect of complete resection with or without postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) on survival in stage Ⅲ(N 2) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods:Relevant studies of the efficacy of PORT for stage Ⅲ(N 2) NSCLC were searched from Wanfang Data, PubMed, and Cochrane Library from January 2006 to January 2022. Literature screening, extraction of information and assessment of the risk of bias of the included literature was carried out by two independent researchers. Meta analysis was performed using R4.0.3 software. Results:A total of 12 publications consisting of 2992 patients were included, 1479 cases in the PORT group and 1513 cases in the control group. PORT improved the overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS) compared to the control group. Fixed-effects model meta analysis of 6 randomized controlled trials showed that PORT did not significantly reduce the risk of death ( HR=0.98, 95% CI: 0.80-1.20). Fixed-effects model meta analysis of 6 retrospective studies showed that PORT improved prognosis ( HR=0.68, 95% CI: 0.59-0.79). PORT could improve OS of patients with multiple (station) metastasis of ipsilateral mediastinum and / or submandibular lymph nodes ( HR=0.89, 95% CI: 0.80-0.99). Conclusions:PORT could improve OS and DFS in stage Ⅲ(N 2) NSCLC. A trend towards benefit can be observed in the subgroup with multiple/multi-station N2 metastasis.
