AIM The proofs of evidence-based medicine of Qingkailing Injection's effect on viral hepatitis are lack in spite of the wide use of Qingkailing Injection in medical practice.This study aims to use Meta-analysis to evaluate its clinical effect and safety.METHODS Such databases as CNKI,VIP and Wanfang were searched for randomized controlled trials related to Qingkailing Injection in treatment of viral hepatitis,which were published officially between 1996--2016.Revman 5.3 software was used to conduct Meta-analysis for the effective rate,rate of adverse reaction,the decrease rate of ALT,AST and TBIL of Qingkailing Injection.Meanwhile,subgroup analysis was conducted to the clinical effect of doses [< 0.5 mL/(kg · d),0.5-0.67 mL/(kg · d),>0.67 mL/(kg · d)],treatment courses (≤ 14 d,> 14 d),manufacturers (Beijing University of Chinese Medicine Pharmaceutical Factory,Shenwei Pharmaceutical Company,Shanxi Taihang Pharmaceutical Company),year (1996 to 2002,2003 to 2009,2010 to 2016).RESULTS Fourteen studies were included according to the criterion.The results of Meta-analysis showed that the total effective rate,the decrease rate of ALT,AST and TBIL in Qingkailing Injection group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05).Whereas,no significiant differences were found between Qingkailing Injection group and the control group of its rate of adverse reaction (P > 0.05).Subgroup-analysis showed that the effective rate of Qingkailing in doses subgroup,treatment courses subgroup,manufacturers subgroup and year subgroup were significantly higher than those of the control group.CONCLUSION Qingkailing Injection has obvious benefit in the treatment of viral hepatitis,which can reduce the activity of ALT and AST,also can reduce the content of TBIL.But we should pay attention to the prevention of allergic reaction in the clinical use.

Objective To prepare and explore the pharmacokinetic parameters for ~ 99 Tc~ m -ASON-EGF in healthy rabbits. Methods ~ 99 Tc~ m -ASON-EGF was prepared according to previous methods and its changes of concentration in blood were measured by radioactivity counts per minute. The experimental data were dealt with by 3p97 software and its true compartment model was estimated by AIC value, R~ 2 value, the 1/c and F test. Subsequently, its half-life of distribution (T_ 1/2 ?), half-life of elimination (T_ 1/2 ?), central compartment volume of distribution (Vc), total apparent volume of distribution (Vd) and total rate of clearance (CL) were calculated by the software. Finally, the binding rate of plasma protein was determined by trichloroacetic acid precipitation. Results The best model of ~ 99 Tc~ m -ASON-EGF in vivo was two-compartment model and its T_ 1/2 ?, T_ 1/2 ?, Vc, Vd and CL were 5.28 min, 89.23 min, 67.8 ml, 915.6 ml and 7.1 ml/min respectively. After being incubated with fresh plasma for 1.5 h, its binding rate was 10.69%. Conclusion Its process of transportation in healthy rabbits is fitted to two-compartment model and the pharmacokinetic properties are desirable.

Objective To study the sensitivity and reliability of rat skin anaphylactoid test method, detect and evaluate the anaphylactoid reaction of traditional Chinese medecine injection. Methods The condition of rat skin anaphylactoid test was optimized by studying the influencing factors of sensitivity and reliability of test with C48/80 as a tool drug, Tween80, endotoxin, China cobra toxin, trichosanthin injection, Tanreqing injection and Xuesaitong injection were investigated. Results The best conditions of rat skin anaphylactoid test was as follows:intrademal inject the drug with insulin syringe, 50-100μL per point, immediately inject 0.5%Evans blue dye 1 mL though caudal vein, 15 min later, kill the rat by carotid artery bleeding, clip dorsal skin to do the test. With this method, Tween80, endotoxin, China cobra toxin and trichosanthin injection all can induce blue stain in rat skin. Tanreqing injection showed no blue stain at the clinical dose. Xuesaitong injection although can induce blue stain in rat skin at the clinical dose, but the results cannot exclude the interference of its pharmacological function. Conclusion The method is simple with short test cycle, less dose of test drug, high detection sensitivity and good reproducibility, but some drug can show false positive result due to its own property.

Objective To analyze the histological changes of bone diseases and to investigate the noninvasive measurements for diagnosing renal osteodystrophy (ROD) in maintenance dialysis patients . Methods Ninety-one patients were selected to receive bone biopsy . The bone samples were stained with HE, toluidine blue and Masson, and were examined with light microscopy . The levels of immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (iPTH), osteoprotegerin (OPG),sRANKL and osteocalcin (OCN) were determined in the patients enrolled from 2004 to 2006 . The level of iPTH was measured by radioimmunoassay . OPG and sRANKL were measured by ELISA,and OCN was measured by chemiluminescence . Results The incidence of ROD in the maintenance patients was 100% . According to the histological appearance, 50 cases (54 .9%) were high turnover bone disease (secondary hyperparathyroid bone disease), 9 cases (9 .9%) were low turnover bone diseases(osteomalacia and adynamic bone disease), and 32 cases(35 .2% ) were mixed bone disease . The level of iPTH in patients with ROD was significantly increased compared with healthy controls . It was the lowest in low turnover bone diseases . There was no difference among three types of ROD . OPG level was significantly increased compared with healthy controls [(2176 .58±1576 .08) pmol/L vs (1310 .46±1254 .00) pmol/L, P<0 .05] . The level in high turnover bone diseases was higher than that of the healthy controls [(2261 .85±1712 .22) pmol/L vs (1310 .46±1254 .00) pmol/L, P<0 .05] . There was no difference among three types of ROD .sRANKL level in high turnover bone disease was significantly increased compared with healthy controls [(0 .328±0 .524)pmol/L vs (0 .084±0 .190) pmol/L, P<0 .05] . OCN level was also higher than that of the healthy controls (P<0 .05), and the OCN level in low turnover ROD was the lowest among three types of ROD . OCN level in mixed ROD was dramatically increased as compared to low turnover ROD [(226 .633±66 .455) pmol/L vs (193 .03±104 .269) pmol/L, P <0 .05] .Conclusions The histological changes of bone disease can be indicated by iPTH level, but the types of ROD can not be distinguished according to iPTH level neither be differentiated by the levels of OPG, sRANKL and OCN . Bone histomorphometry is still the golden standard for diagnosing renal osteodystrophy .

[Objective]To comprehensively compare the feasibility of three different treatment strategies consisting of low-dose chemotherapy(LDC),surgery and surgery with adjuvant low-dose chemotherapy(SLDC)for children with solitary bone lesions of eosinophilic granuloma(SBL-EG).[Methods]We retrospectively reviewed the records of 149 pediatric patients with SBL-EG at our institutions from 2002 to 2014. Our study included 86 patients who received LDC ,33 patients who received surgery and 30 patients who received SLDC. The duration of hospital stay ,time to symptom relief,recovery time,cost,complications and relapse-free sur-vival(RFS)of each strategy were analyzed.[Results]Hospital stay,time to symptom relief,recovery time and cost in the LDC group were significantly shorter or less than those in the surgery or SLDC group (P < 0.05). No statistically significant differences were observed in the above-mentioned factors between the surgery and SLDC groups (P > 0.05). Chemotherapy-related adverse events in the LDC and SLDC groups included nausea(8.62%),aminotransferase elevation(7.76%),slight hair loss(4.31%), immunity decline (21.55%),growth retardation (10.34%) and moon face (7.76%). LDC and SLDC treatment resulted in a significantly longer RFS (147 months and 126 months ,respectively) than surgery alone (114 months)(P = 0.005 and 0.019 , respectively). However ,there was no statistically significant difference in RFS between the LDC and SLDC groups (P = 0.732).[Conclusions]Compared with surgery or SLDC,LDC appears to promote more rapid recovery,less invasion,increase safety and eco-nomic treatment strategy for pediatric patients with SBL-EG.
