Of 807 Cases of Diabetes mellitus, 100 were ketoacidosis with or with-ot coma(40 Cases among them with coma), 55 were males, 45 females. Therange of age was 5 to 76 years. There were 39 cases of ketonemia with ju-venile diabetes, and the incidence was 29. 5 per cent of 137 cases. 61 werefound to have ketonemia with adult dialetes, the incidence being 10. 2 percent of 594 cases. Blood glucose level was 166. 7 to 1000mg/dl. The mostcommon precipitating causcs of ketonemia were infection and the dis-continue of insulin treatment(58 per cent). According to the dosage of insu-lin, our patients were divided into two groups. One was a small dosagegroup(the total mean dose 25. 5 ? 3. 1 u), the other was a large dosage group(the first 8 hours' mean dose 121. 67 ? 102u, the fitst 24 hours' mean dose206. 62 ? 18. 01) There were on death and severe complications of insulintherapy in the small dosage group, but 13 (16 per cent) were died in thelarge dosage group, in which there took place such complications as hypo-kele mia(11 per cent), hypoglycemia (26 per cent) and encephaledema (3. 8per cent). Also, the negative acetone bodies occured faster in the smalldosage group. For this reason, we consider the effect of the treatment inthe small dosage group was better. Recently, we have controlled alkelidosage more strictly than before. 100-200ml of 4% Bicarbonate was givento the patient if the blood CO_2 combinedpower was lower than 20 Vol pe,

Objective To develop a RP-HPLC method to determine adenosine in Chongcaoqizhi granule. Method The separation was performed in a Kromasil ODS-1 column (250 mm?4.6 mm, 5 ?m) with a mobile phase of phosphate buffer solution (pH 6.5) - methanol (85∶15). The flow was 0.7 mL/min and the detective wavelength was set at 260 nm. Results The standard adenosine showed a good linear correlation at range of 1.016~12.192 ?g/mL. The linear regression equation and correlation coefficient (r) were Y =169339X -82318, r =0.9990, respectively. The average recovery of the loading was 98.02% and the RSD was 1.72%. The average content of adenosine was 12.45 ?g/g. Conclusion This method is accurate, reproducible and highly selective, and can be used for quality control of Chongcaoqizhi granule.

Through several years practice of bilingual education,we have established the bilingual teaching model with its own characteristics,which in cludes the selection of materials,the choice of teaching methods,improvement of teaching methods and means on several aspects.We have also made some reflection and study of the existing problems and future improvement of pharmacology bilingual education.

Objective To observe the effect of Sijunzi Decoction (SD) on the mitochondrial DNA deletion of the aging model mice, and to explore its anti-aging biomolecular mechanism. Methods Kunming mice were divided into 6 groups according to the body weight: normal control group, .model control group, high-, middle-and low-dose SD groups (at the dose of 20, 10, 5 g·kg-1 respectively), and vitamin E group (250 mg·kg-1), 20 mice in each group.The mice models of aging were induced by D-galactose. Water maze test was used to evaluate the learning and memory ability of the aging model mice. The effect of SD on the mitochondrial DNA deletion of the aging model mice was ob-served. Results In the hippocampal mtDNA of model control group and low-dose SD group, there were about 3.87 kb fragment missing. But there was no missing pieces in high-and middle-dose SD groups. Conclusion The anti-aging biomolecular mechanism of SD is probably related to the preventive effect on the mutation and deletion of the mitochondrial DNA in the aging model mice.

Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) has been widely used in the treatment of Sjogren's syndrome. However, there remains no systematic review to assess the effectiveness and safety of CHM.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of wheat-sized moxibustion in treating epigastric pain due to deficient cold of spleen and stomach. Method Fifty-six patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 28 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by wheat-sized moxibustion; the control group was by orally taking Omeprazole enteric-coated tablets. For both groups, 7 treatment sessions were taken as a course, and the therapeutic efficacies were evaluated after 2 courses. Result There were significant differences in comparing the total effective rate, pain score, and relapse rate between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion It can be confirmed that wheat-sized moxibustion is effective in treating epigastric pain due to deficient cold of spleen and stomach, and it can effectively lower the relapse rate and significantly reduce the sufferings brought by the recurred symptoms.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of melatonin on the gastrointestinal motility and plasma levels of the stress hormone in overtraining rats.

METHODThirty adult SD rats were randomly divided into three groups (n = 10): control group, over-training group, melatonin intervention group. 30 min before each training, rats in the control and over-training groups were fed with normal saline (15 mg/kg) once a day and 5 times per week, while rats in the melatonin intervention group were administrated with melatonin, perfusion in the intervention group (15 mg/kg). Excessive training group and melatonin intervention group rats were subjected to excessive training at 5 times a week for 6 weeks. After 6 weeks, the gastric emptying rate, small intestinal propulsion ratio and levels of plasma motilin (MTL) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), cortisol (CORT) and catecholamines (CA) were observed in all groups.

RESULTSCompared with the control group, the gastric emptying rate, small intestinal propulsion ratio and levels of plasma MTL, CORT and CA were increased significantly (P < 0.01) while the content of CGRP was reduced (P < 0.01) in over-training group. After treated with melatonin, this trend was reversed, that was, the gastric emptying rate, small intestinal propulsion ratio and levels of plasma MTL, CORT and CA were surpressed significantly (P < 0.01) while the content of CGRP was improved obviously (P < 0.01) in over-training group.

CONCLUSIONMelatonin plays an important role in protecting gastrointestinal tract from dysfunction, in which MTL, CGRP, CORT and CA are all involved.
