A canthopanax Senticosus , a vulnerable species, was one of the major government-protected plants. This paper deals with the major reason for wildlife resources from biological standpoints, which are sexual propagation with less capability , vegetative propagation being damaged due to leaves , roots and rhizomes being gathered un-reasonable. Raising wildlife resources, semi-wild extensive management, and reasonable gatheration will be an important means for protection of wildlife resources in light of local conditions.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effects of carbon monoxide releasing molecule-2 (CORM-2) on experimental periodontitis in rats.
METHODSForty-two Wistar rats were divided into three groups. Rats in the normal group (NL group) did not undergo any procedure, whereas the other rats were ligatured and treated with saline solution (NaCl 0.9%) (LO group) or treated with CORM-2 (10 mg kg(-1) per day) (CO group). A 3-0 silk suture was placed around the mandibular first molars. Rats were sacrificed after 3, 7, and 10 d. Blood samples were collected from all animals for tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) analysis. Changes in alveolar bone levels were measured clinically, and periodontal tissues were histopathologically examined to assess the infiltration of inflammatory cells.
RESULTSLigature placement increased alveolar bone loss and inflammatory cell infiltration in periodontal tissue. Alveolar bone loss in CO group was significantly higher than that in NL group, but was lower than that in LO group (P<0.05). The ratio of inflammatory cell infiltration in LO group was significantly higher than that in CO and NL groups, and that in CO group was lower than in LO group (P<0.05). Serum levels of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta in the LO group were significantly higher than those in the CO and NL groups, and those in CO group were lower than in LO group (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONSystemic administration of CORM-2 reduced periodontal inflammation and alveolar bone loss in experimental periodontitis in rats.

Objective To investigate the correlation of the 24?hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure (SBP) and carotid intima?media thickness(CIMT) in the elderly. Methods A total of 2 464 who were more than or equal to 60 years old participants were selected with random sampling in accordance with the inclusion criteria from the retired workers in Tangshan Kailuan Company. Dynamic blood pressure monitoring, neck vascular ultrasound and other examination were performed for the participants. . Multivariable linear regression analysis was used to analyze correlation between the SBP of 24?hour, daytime and nightime with CIMT, respectively. Results ( 1) The observation population was divided into three groups according to the tertiles of SBP of 24?hour, daytime and nightime, respectively. With the levels of different SBPs inceasing, CIMT values thickened markedly ( P<0. 01 ) . ( 2 ) Multivariable linear regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors,the SBP of 24?hour,daytime and nightime associated with CIMT positively and linearly(P<0. 05),and regression coefficient(95%CI) were 0. 022(0. 009-0. 035), 0. 021(0. 008-0. 035), 0. 019 ( 0. 006-0. 032) respectively. In addition,clinic SBP step into the multivariable linear regression,and regression coefficient ( 95%CI ) were 0. 016 ( 0. 003-0. 029 ) , 0. 016 ( 0. 003-0. 030 ) , 0. 019 ( 0. 007-0. 032 ) , respectively. Conclusion The effect of increased 24?hour ambulatory SBP on CIMT was greater than the clinic SBP. Active monitoring of 24 h ambulatory blood pressure and maintaining a low level of blood pressure is essential for preventing and delaying atherosclerosis.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) in gingival tissues of chronic periodontitis.
METHODSHuman peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) were stimulated with 1 microg x mL(-1) lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 24 h or 48 h. Expression and release of HMGB1 were checked by immunofluorescence and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), respectively. PBMC were stimulated with 100 ng x mL(-1) HMGB1 or 50 ng x mL(-1) tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), the expressions of TNF-alpha and HMGB1 in the supernatant were studied by ELISA. Gingival tissues and gingival crevicular fluids (GCF) were collected from patients and healthy people. Expression of HMGB1 in gingival tissues and GCF was studied using immunofluorescence and ELISA, respectively.
RESULTSHMGB1 was translocated from nucleus to cytosol in PBMC after LPS stimulation for 24 h. The content of HMGB1 in the supernatant from stimulated cells was significantly higher than that from unstimulated cells after 48 h (P < 0.01). HMGB1 was released by PBMC in response to TNF-alpha stimulation, it also stimulated PBMC to release TNF-alpha (P < 0.01). Translocation of HMGB1 from nucleus to cytosol was also found in infiltrated cells in gingival tissues from patients, and HMGB1 in GCF from patients was significantly higher than that from healthy people P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONThe results suggest that HMGB1 may play an important role in the pathological progress of chronic periodontitis.

Objective To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine combined with butorphanol conventional therapy on sustaining sedation of intensive care unit (ICU) patients.Methods Sixty critically ill patients in Binzhou Central Hospital from June to September in 2014 were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, 30 cases in each group. In the control group, 0.8 mg/L dexmedetomidine hydrochloride injection (400μg with addition of 46 mL normal saline to form 50 mL solution) was intravenously infused continuously at a speed of 0.4μg·kg-1·h-1 by a micro-pump to induce analgesia and sedation; while in the experimental group, dexmedetomidine combined with 200 mg/L butorphanol (10 mg plus 40 mL normal saline to form 50 mL solution) was given for intravenous infusion by a micro-pump with a speed of 0.01 mg·kg-1·h-1 to maintain analgesia and sedation for 48 hours whose required Ramsay score in both groups was 3 - 5. Before and after treatment, the changes of heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), and the pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) of both groups were observed. The dosage of dexmedetomidine used for maintenance of required analgesia and sedation and FPS (facial expression) grading and Ramsay score were compared respectively between the two groups, and the clinical efficacy of the two groups were evaluated.Results After treatment, the HR, MAP, RR in both groups were significantly lower, and PaO2 and SpO2 were significantly higher than those before treatment, and the degrees of improvement in the above indexes of the experiment group were superior to those of the control group [HR (bpm): 84.58±12.43 vs. 118.62±14.21, MAP (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 82.35±12.12 vs. 92.35±12.32, RR (times/min): 25.42±3.98 vs. 32.87±5.12, PaO2 (mmHg): 95.21±10.55 vs. 75.18±8.57, SpO2: 0.981 4±0.102 8 vs. 0.954 7±0.093 8, allP < 0.05]. The total therapeutic effect in experiment group was significantly higher than that in control group [93.3% (28/30) vs. 76.7% (22/30),P < 0.05]. The dexmedetomidine dosage used in the experiment group was much less than that in the control group (μg/d: 412.12±23.18 vs. 520.05±15.68,P < 0.05). The FPS score in the experiment group was obviously lower than that in the control group (1.48±0.16 vs. 2.52±0.74,P < 0.05).Conclusion In comparison, to achieve sustained and required analgesic and sedative effect for ICU patients by combined use of dexmedetomidine and butorphanol, the dosage of dexmedetomidine used is less than dexmedetomidine applied alone, in addition, the combined use can achieve better Ramsay grading, steady blood pressure and excellent effect.

Objective:To explore the effect of sarpogrelate on platelet function in patients at the bridging stage before coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
Methods: A total of 40 consecutive patients with peripheral artery stent and scheduled for CABG in our hospital from 2011-05 to 2013-04 were enrolled in this study. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups, Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) alone group, n=19 and Sarpogrelate+LMWH group, n=21. The medications started at 5-7 days before CABG and stopped at 24 h before CABG. The platelet inhibition rates (platelet aggregation induced by collagen+ serotonin) were examined and compared between 2 groups at the baseline (before randomization), 24h and 1h before CABG respectively.
Results: The platelet inhibition rates were similar between 2 groups at the baseline (87.33 ± 6.82) % vs (86.11 ± 6.87) %, P=0.577 and 1h before CABG (62.60 ± 12.39) % vs (56.19 ± 14.99) %, P=0.148. At 24h before CABG, the platelet inhibition rate in Sarpogrelate+LMWH group was higher than that in LMWH alone group (83.87 ± 8.99)%vs (63.13 ± 10.88)%, P<0.001. Compared with the baseline, the falling range of platelet inhibition was lower in Sarpogrelate+ LMWH group at 24h before CABG, (3.46 ± 6.18) % vs (22.98 ± 9.43) %, P<0.001 and the falling range was similar between 2 groups at 1h before CABG (24.73 ± 14.19)%vs (29.92 ± 14.28)%, P=0.257.
Conclusion: Sarpogrelate + LMWH may result better platelet inhibition rate with quicker recovery of platelet function upon the medication stopping, which might be a feasible management in patients at the bridging stage before CABG.
