AlM: To observe the clinical curative effect of calcium dobesilate capsule and yimaikang tablet for treating retinal vein occlusion ( RVO) .METHODS:A total of 120 patients (167 eyes) with RVO were divided into 2 groups at random. The control group of 60 cases ( 82 eyes ) were given calcium dobesilate capsule, and the treatment group of 60 cases ( 85 eyes ) received calcium dobesilate capsule and yimaikang tablet. Changes of visual acuity and clinical effects after 3 courses of treatment were compared and analyzed for all patients.RESULTS: Markedly effective 15 cases ( 23 eyes ) , effective 42 cases (57 eyes) and invalid 3 cases (5 eyes) in the 60 cases (85 eyes) of the treatment group, the total effective rate was 94. 1%. Eighty-two eyes of 60 cases in the control group, markedly effective in 8 cases ( 12 eyes), effective 38 cases (49 eyes), ineffective 14 cases (21 eyes), The total effective rate was 74. 4% in the control group. There were significant differences between the 2 groups of curative effect, and low incidence rate of adverse reaction. CONCLUSlON: Calcium dobesilate capsules and yimaikang tablet is effective and safe in the treatment of RVO.

Side population (SP) cells are highly enriched for stem cell activity and characterized by their ability to efflux the vital dye Hoechst 33342, because they express the ATP binding cassette (ABC)-dependent transporter ABCG2. SP cells can be selected from main population using flow cytometric analysis. Currently SP cells have been isolated from many tissues and organs. SP cells of different origins have some common characteristics. This article introduces the classifications, surface marker, and characteristics of SP cells.

Objective To understand change and pathogenesis of microalbuminuria(MAU) in cases of adiposity.Method MAU were measured by immunoturbidmetric methods 300 cases of adiposity and 100 cases of nomal children in morning,meanwhile blood press,blood su-gar,blood fat,blood insulin were measured.Results MAU was higher in cases of middle and severe adiposity than normal controls.The diffe-rence was significant(Pa

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of lung detoxification soup for treatment of patients with ventilator associated pneumonia(VAP)and its effects on serum procalcitonin(PCT),high sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP)and white blood cell count(WBC). Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted, sixty cases of VAP with traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome of accumulation of phlegm and heat in lung from Department of Intensive Care Unit(ICU)in the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui TCM University were enrolled, and the CASIO fx-360P function calculator was applied to generate random numbers to proceed to simple randomized dividing into two groups(each,30 cases). In the control group,mechanical ventilation,anti-infection,prevention of stress ulcer,early enteral nutrition,early weaning of ventilator and conventional western medicine treatment were given to the patients,while in the treatment group,based on the above conventional treatments in the control group,additionally the lung detoxification soup was given(soup composition:radix astragali 20 g ,baical skullcap root 15 g,coptis 10 g,shellfish 8 g,pinelliae tuber 10 g,white mustard seed 10 g,heartleaf houttuynia herb 15 g, honeysuckle flower 15 g,forsythia 15 g,banlangen 15 g,rhubarb 10 g,salvia miltiorrhiza 30 g)by nasal feeding, once 100 mL,twice a day. The therapeutic course was 7 days in both groups. The changes of TCM syndrome integral, levels of serum PCT,hs-CRP and WBC before and after treatment and the clinical efficacy were compared between the two groups. Results After treatment,the TCM syndrome integral,the levels of WBC,serum PCT,hs-CRP were significantly lower than those before treatment in both groups,and the decrease in treatment group being more marked〔TCM syndrome integral:4.73±1.10 vs. 10.33±1.46,WBC(×109/L):8.71±0.55 vs. 10.77±0.65,PCT (μg/L):1.64±0.40 vs. 5.71±1.25,hs-CRP(mg/L):4.96±1.06 vs. 8.85±1.53,all P<0.05〕. The total effective rate of treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group〔(93.33%(28/30)vs. 73.33(22/30),P<0.05〕. Conclusion The lung detoxification soup can significantly improve the clinical symptoms,reduce the levels of WBC,serum PCT and hs-CRP in patients of VAP with TCM syndrome of accumulation of phlegm and heat in lung, therefore the soup may play a beneficial role as an adjuvant therapy for such patients.
