Objective To investigate the effects of proanthocyanidins on depressant-like behaviors and the structure of adrenal gland in chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) rats. Methods Rats were randomly divided into 6 groups:control group, stressed group (CUMS + vehicle), three treatment groups (CUMS + proanthocyanidins 25,50,100 mg·kg-1,respectively) ,and imipramine group (CUMS + imipramine 10 mg·kg-1). Used the CUMS model in rats to investigate the effects of chronic oral administration (21 days) of proanthocyanidins and imipramine (ip) on the open-field;and forced swimming and sucrose consumption tests and the ratio of adrenal gland/body weight,and its thickness were examined by HE stain. Results Compared with control group, rats subjected to CUMS exhibited increased ratio of adrenal gland /body weight ( P < 0. 01), less sucrose consumption( P<0.01) and inhibited in the open-field test( P<0.01) as well as more despair time in the forced swimming test( P<0.01). While compared with stressed group,treatments with proanthocyanidins (25,50,100 mg·kg-1, po ,21 days) could significantly improve the activities in open-field test ((39.6±3.4) vs (49±4.5), (52.6±3.7),(54.1±1.8) ;all P<0.01) and sucrose consumption( (5.8±2.5)ml vs (8.1±3.3)ml,(8.5±4.1) ml, (9.2±2.6) ml; P < 0.05, P < 0.05, P < 0.01 respectively); Meanwhile, it could reduce the duration time in forced swimming test significantly( (103.5±10.2)s vs (83.7±8.8)s,(75.8±5.9)s,(67.2±6.5)s; all P<0.01) as well as thickness of the adrenal gland(P<0.05, P<0.01).Conclusions This study suggests that the proanthocyanidins (25,50,100 mg·kg-1) has an antidepressant-like effects in CUMS rats. The antidepressant actions of proanthocyanidins, in some degrees, may be related with the regulation of the adrenal gland's structure.

Objective To observe the effect of preoperative oral administration of carbohydrate on blood glucose,insulin resistance(IR) and inflammatory reaction after gastrointestinal operation.Methods 48 patients receiving gastrointestinal operation were randomly divided into the study group(n =23)and the control group(n =25).Patients in the study group were orally given 25％ glucose solution 300 ml 3 hours before operation.Before anesthesia induction,gastric contents were aspirated through nasogastric tube to examine its volume and pH.Serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hsCRP),fasting blood glucose,insulin level and homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance(HOMA-IR) were detected before operation and on the first morning after operation between the two groups.Results No anesthesia or operation related complications occurred in either groups.Patients had similar gastric contents volume and the PH value of gastric contents.There was no significant difference in serum hsCRP,fasting blood glucose and HOMA-IR between the two groups before operation.But on the first day,fasting blood glucose,HOMA-IR and hsCRP were significantly lower in the study group than in the control group(6.51 ±1.15 vs 7.49 ±0.57 mmol/L,P =0.038;4.34 ± 1.60 vs 6.09 ±2.81,P =0.043;40.45 ± 27.02 vs 80.02 ± 38.98 mg/L,P =0.03).Conclusion Preoperative oral administration of carbohydrate can obviously lower the postoperative blood glucose level and insulin resistance and alleviate postoperative inflammatory reaction.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and clinicopathological features and long-term prognosis of gastric cancer patients after radical gastrectomy.Methods The clinical data of 135 gastric cancer patients who underwent radical gastrectomy in this hospital from 2002 to 2006 was analyzed retrospectively.The PNI value was calculated by serum albumin (g/L) + 5 x lymphocyte count (× 109/L).The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Youden index was used to determine the cutoff value of the PNI.Survival curves were described by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared by the Log-rank test.The univariate and multivariate analyses were performed with the Cox proportional hazard model to identify the prognostic factors.Result The mean PNI value was 47.3 ± 5.9.The mean values of the PNI in age (t =2.909,P =0.004),tumor size (t =2.227,P =0.028),tumor depth (t =3.314,P =0.001),negative lymph node (t =2.381,P =0.019),negative lymphovascular invasion (t =2.781,P =0.006) were significantly higher than those in patients without such factors.When the PNI was 47,the Youden index was maximal,with a sensitivity of 70％ and specificity of 63％.The mean age in high PNI group was significantly lower than that in low PNI group (x2 =6.443,P =0.011).Tumor infiltration depth in high PNI group was less than in low PNI group (x2 =7.394,P =0.007).The proportion of lymphovascular invasion in high PNI group was significantly lower than in low PNI group (x2 =4.540,P =0.033).The overall survival rate in high PNI group was higher than in low PNI group (P =0.002).The univariate and multivariate analyses showed that tumor location (OR,2.144 ; 95 ％ CI 1.239-3.712 ; P =0.006),lymph node metastasis (OR,4.887 ; 95 ％ CI 1.856-12.866 ; P =0.001),lymphovascular invasion (OR,1.842 ; 95％ CI 1.078-3.145 ; P =0.025) and the PNI value (OR,2.282 ; 95 ％ CI 1.344-3.874 ; P =0.002) were independent factors for predicting overall survival rate.Conclusions The PNI value is a simple and useful tool to predict the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer.

METHODS The status of clinical pharmacy undergraduate internship education in China was briefly summarized， and suggestions on its future development based on advanced methods of domestic and abroad were provided. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS In China， undergraduate students of clinical pharmacy were required to undergo hospital internships for no less than 42 weeks. The internship took place in both pharmacy and clinical departments in hospitals. Students’ performance was usually assessed at the end of the internship. The mainstream teaching patterns included on-site teaching， simulation teaching， case-based discussion teaching， medical and pharmaceutical joint teaching， team-based teaching， academic exchange， and so on. The form of assessment had also shifted from final evaluations to more dynamic formats. The clinical pharmacy undergraduate internship education in China can adopt teaching models such as the layered teaching approach， establish pre-internship assessment or training， and encourage interns to participate in social pharmacy practice and directly interact with patients， etc.， so as to improve the effect of internship.

Objective To investigate the correlation between inflammatory cells, body temperature changes, and TCM syndromes of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) patients in acute and subacute phases. Methods The data of age, gender, body temperature, blood routine, venous ultrasonography, and four diagnostic information of 130 DVT patients in acute and subcute phases were collected and analyzed in a cross-sectional study. The correlation between inflammatory cells and the changes of body temperature and TCM syndromes were analyzed. Results Among 130 DVT patients, 37 patients had damp-heat syndrome, 64 patients had blood stasis and dampness syndrome, and 29 patients had qi stagnation syndrome. Neutrophils increased most obviously in blood stasis and dampness syndrome (P<0.05), which had close correlation with the skin redness (OR=1.287, 95%CI: 9.412-21.247). The mononuclear cells increased most obviously in the damp-heat syndrome, which has close correlation with nouhof (OR=7.364, 95%CI:1.189–45.603), high skin temperature (OR=6.683, 95%CI:1.791–24.938), skin tightness (OR=6.107, 95%CI:1.423–26.203) and weakness (OR=3.302, 95%CI: 1.002–9.169). The temperature rising was the most common in the damp-heat syndrome, and the increase of mononuclear cells was the most common one. Conclusion DVT is often accompanied with elevated levels of inflammatory cells and body temperature. Damp-heat syndrome has close correlation with body temperature and mononuclear cells increasing. Dampness and blood stasis syndrome and neutrophils are closely related.

OBJECTIVE: To explore a simple and accurate method for localization of upper airway obstruction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and provide instructions for surgical treatment. METHOD: Fifty OSAHS patients confirmed by PSG underwent acoustic rhinometric and pharyngometric assessment by Eccovision. The parameters were recorded, including nasal minimal cross-sectional area (NMCA), distance of MCA from the nostril (DCAN), minimum cross-sectional area at the nasal valve(MCA), nasal resistance (NR) and nasal volume from 0 to 6 cm from the nostril (NCV), as well as pharyngeal cross-sectional area (CSA) and volume from 4.8 to 15.0 cm. The sensitivity and specificity of acoustic rhinometry and pharyngometry on localization of airway obstruction was determined by a comprehensive imaging and endoscopic study. RESULT: In 50 cases with severe OSAHS, NMCA, DCAN, MCA, NCV, NR were (0.61 +/- 0.35) cm2, (2.06 +/- 0.12) cm, (0.87 +/- 0.12) cm2, (9.24 +/- 2.31)cm3 and (0.51 +/- 0.32)kPa/(L x min), respectively. Pharyngeal CSA and volume were statistically significantly lower than that in control group (P < 0.01). The value of DCAN was (2.06 +/- 0.12) cm, (9.50 +/- 4.08) cm, (13.10 +/- 2.52) cm in type I II, III patient, respectively. Compared with the control group, the difference was statistically significant. CONCLUSION Acoustic rhinometry and pharyngometry is a simple and safe method in localization of airway obstruction in patients with OSAHS.
