Ketogenic diet (KD) is a high-fat,low-protein,low-carbohydrate diet that results in series of adaptive changes such as ketosis,fatty acid increasing and glycolysis depression.The mechanisms of the epilepsy correlated with the iron channel,neurotransmitter and neurocyte injury.The novel stresses the antiepileptic effects of above general changes in controlling the iron channels open or close,balancing the excitable and inhibitive neurotransmitters,increasing energy reserve,inhibiting free radical production and promoting neurocyte regeneration.

Objective To explore the changes of plasma catecholamines(CA)[including epinephrine(E) and norepinephrine(NE)] and atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP) in children with varying degrees of left ventricular ejection function(LVEF) in chronic heart failure(CHF),and establish natriuretic hormone factors as one of the diagnostic criteria of CHF.Methods Thirty-five patients with CHF and 35 children in good health were enrolled,and the concentration of plasma NE,E,ANP and the LVEF were determined.Results 1.The levels of plasma NE,E and ANP in 35 patients with CHF before treatment were significantly higher than those in control group(Pa

Objective To investigate the enhancing effect of Celecoxib on the anti-proliferative effect of cisplatin (DDP) against human cervical carcinoma HeLa cells and to explore the possible mechanism. Methods After treatment of HeLa cells with Celecoxib or/and DDP, the growth suppression of HeLa cells was measured by MTT assay. Cell cycle and apoptosis were examined by flow cylometry. Results The inhibition of Celecoxib on HeLa cells was dose -dependent and time -dependent.The inhibitory effect was remarkable enhanced in asynergistic or additive pattern after treatment with the combination of Celecoxib and DDP (P =0.000) . Celecoxib (50 μmol/L) and DDP (16 μmol/L) could respectively induce the apoptosis of HeLa cells and this effect of apoptosis induction was increased when combinated Celecoxib with DDP. They could change cell cycle of HeLa cells lines with G_0/G_1 phase cells increasing and S phase cells decreasing. Conclusion Celecoxib combined with DDP shows synergistic anti-tumor effects.

Crude extract of Periplaneta americana was prepared by liquid nitrogen grinding.After being purified with DEAE Sephadex A-50 ion exchange chromatography,the protein content of the extract was determined and the extract solution was prepared at gradient concentrations.The crude extract and purified allergen at different concentrations were dotted respectively on nitrocellulose(NC) membrane.Patient serum,bio-IgE,sa-HRP,luminal regents were added to the membrane.The chemiluminescence was displayed by exposing to X-film.The result revealed that the minimum protein content of crude Periplaneta americana extract detected by CLIA is 0.87?g/ml,with 90% accordance to skin test positive patients,and 100% accordance to those with negative skin test and ELISA detection.

OBJECTIVE: To provide reference for the management of central pharmacy in our hospital. METHODS: In daily work, performance score of a job was related with quality evaluation using grouping work model and management method of allocating a specific responsibility to a specific person. RESULT & CONCLUSION: The work process of central pharmacy is clear and plays a great role in economizing on resources relatively.

ObjectTo investigate the chemical constituents in the rhizoma of Belamcanda chinensis (L.) DC. MethodsThe chemical constituents were isolated and purified by solvent extraction together with various chromatographic techniques. The structures were elucidated on the basis of chemical evidence and spectral data. ResultsThree compounds were isolated from the EtoAC extracts of the rhizome of B. chinensis which were isorhamnetin (Ⅹ), hispidulin (Ⅺ), dichotomitin ( ⅩⅡ); four compounds were isolated from n-BuOH extracts, which were iridin ( ⅩⅢ), tectoridin (ⅩⅣ), daucosterol ( ⅩⅤ), vittadinoside or stigmasterol-3-O-glucoside ( ⅩⅥ). ConclusionCompound Ⅺ is isolated from this medicinal plant for the first time.

Emergency departments of hospitals are exposed to risks of patient complaints and disputes, and the emergency department of a stomatology hospital is no exception. Medical disputes at the emergency department of Peking University Stomatology Hospital, as registered at the department of medical affairs of the hospital in the past ten years, are analyzed with statistical processing. The results are used in studying characteristics of medical disputes frequently found in stomatology emergency cases, for references and recommendations on prevention and avoidance of such disputes in future.
