[Objective] To develop a method for the determination of thiamazole content in Yingqi Ling Tablets. [Methods] High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used. The chromatographic conditions were: C18 Gravity Column (4.6mm ? 250mm), methanol - water (10:90 ) as mobile phase, flow rate being 1.0mL/min and the detection wavelength at 258nm. [Results] The calibration curve was linear in the range of 0.16 - 0.64?g. The average recovery was 101.01% (relative standard deviation sr = 2.21%). Relative standard deviation of precision test was 1.04% and the content of the sample was 0.4841 mg per tablet (sR = 0.78%). [ Conclusion] HPLC is effective for the determination of thiamazole content in Yingqi Ling Tablets.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of the gene therapy on angiogenesis after myocardial infarction in rats.Methods Thirty-six male SD rats,after the ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery,were divided into 2 groups as experimental and control one.Expressions of VEGF were measured by RT-PCR and Immunohistochemistry(IHC).Angiogenesis and capillary density were evaluated by HE stain,and qualitative and quantitative analysis were carried out.The adverse effects were tested after injection of pVEGF165-PLGA nanoparticle.Results Compared with control groups,ischemic myocardial cells persistently and stably expressed VEGF in experimental group;Vascular endothelial cells actively proliferated,and the effect of angiogenesis was significant;48 hours later,nanoparticles were observed in myocardial cells.Conclusion Injection of with pVEGF165-PLGA nanoparticle,it can stimulate effective host-derived angiogenesis,which results in the prevention of impaired cardiac muscle after myocardial infarction.It may be an effect way to treat MI.

Objective To screen the sensitive plasma molecular markers in diabetic nephropathy ( DN) patients with kidney yang deficiency. Methods Two-dimensional fluorescence difference gel electrophoresis (2-D DIGE) was used to analyze the plasma which was sampled from 4 early DN patients with kidney yang deficiency and 4 healthy adult volunteers. Proteins that showed differential expression with an over 1.5-fold change were analyzed by MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry. Results Two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) maps of plasma proteins in DN patients with kidney yang deficiency and healthy adults were established successfully. We validated 9 differentially expressed proteins, including complements C3 and C4, apolipoprotein E and ubiquitination factor. Conclusion Proteomic analysis by 2-D DIGE can objectively reveal the differences of plasma protein expression in DN patents with kidney yang deficiency and healthy adult volunteers. The obtained 9 proteins have potential to provide plasma molecular markers for the early clinical diagnosis and for the research of traditional Chinese medical patterns of DN.

Objective To investigate the role of 8 iso PGF2a in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods Level of serum 8 iso PGF2a and lung function were studied in 38 patients with acute exacerbation of COPD(AECOPD),23 patients with stable COPD and 18 health subjects.Results The serum 8 iso PGF2a level was significantly higher in patients with AECOPD[(6.84?1.70)?g/L]as compared to those in the controls[(4.64?1.24)?g/L]and in patients with stable COPD[(5.82?1.72)?g/L](P

Objective To research the reliability and validity of the N-QOL Chinese version system.Methods A total of 260 nocturia patients were surveyed by the Chinese version of N-QOL and the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of N-QOL were assessed.Results Cronbach's α of the total questionnaire and two dimensions were 0.899,0.672 and 0.799,respectively.The split-half reliability was 0.828 and re-test reliability was 0.796.The correlation coefficients of scores of the items with its subordinate dimensionality were 0.595～0.854,and those with the total scores were 0.578～0.754.Two common factors were found through exploratory factor analysis,which explained the percent of 57.20％ rotation sums of squared loadings.Conclusions The reliability and validity of the Chinese version of N-QOL were good,so it could be used to evaluate the life quality of nocturia patients.

Objective To study the value of MRI and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy(H 1-MRS)for neonatal hypoxic-is-chemic encephalopathy(HIE).Methods Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (H 1-MRS)were performed in 30 cases of full-term neonates with HIE,and 10 infant control group without evidence of birth asphyxia. Cerebral MRI and H 1-MRS were performed within 1 5 days after birth.The results of H 1-MRS such as subwave crest values of me-tabolites in lesion areas were recorded.The data were analyzed statistically.Results (1)MRI showed abnormal fetures of HIE such as diffuse cerebral edema,loss of hyperintensity in the posterior limb of the internal capsule on T1 WI,gyrus sign,diffuse parenchy-mal hemorrhage,which could predict the severity of brain damage.(2)On H 1-MRS,the ratio of Lac/Cr in HIE group was much higer than that in control group,which was statistically significant (P <0.05).The ratio of Lac/Cr showed a rising trend with clini-cal grading of HIE.The ratio of NAA/Cr and NAA/Cho were lower in HIE group than that in control group (P <0.05),which showed a trend of gradually reduce with clinical grading of HIE.The difference between ratio of Glx-α/Cr in HIE group and control group was also significantly,the moderate-severe group was much higher than the mild group and control group.There was no sig-nificant difference in the ratio of Cho/Cr between the 4 groups.Conclusion The combination of MRI and H 1-MRS can objectively re-flect brain morphology and metabolic changes of HIE,and evaluate the severity of the brain injury,and provide an effective evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
