Chinese compound priscriptions of traditional herbs are widely used in the alternative therapy for all kinds of diseases It remains unclear how the compounds in different herbs interact each other and which exacting mechanism can complain their effects The components and pharmacological effects of the combination of Chinese herbs are not due to the simple mixture of single herb's The substance basis research of combination herbs is one of the important issue for understanding their pharmacological mechanism Here the recent progress on the substance basis research of combination Chinese traditional herbs is reviewed, including the combinative effects and quantity ratio relation study, herbs serum study, chemical compounds research, the methods and techniques in chemical components analysis, and application foreground of Chinese compound priscription

A large number of studies have confirmed that antiplatelet agents reduce the relative risk of stroke,myocardial infarction,or death by an average of 22％.However,many patients still have thrombotic events during the period of taking anti-platelet agents,and this is called anti-platelet agent resistance.Its incidences reported are very different.The incidence of aspirin is 3％ to 85％,and that of clopidogrel is 28％ to 44％.The exact cause of antiplatelet agent resistance remains unclear.It may be associated with several factors,including decreased drug bioavailability,genetic polymorphisms,activation of other platelet activation pathways,and increased circulating platelets.Currently,a variety of laboratory methods have been used to detect antiplatelet agent resistance,its criteria are different.In addition,the response measures of antiplatelet agent resistance also have no conclusion,and this has brought greater difficulties for the prevention and treatment of stroke.

Objective To investigate the application of three dimensional blood vessel angiography(3D-CTA) in the patients of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhge diagonised as aneurysm.Methods 3D-CTA were examined in 32 cases of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage.Results In 32 patients of spontaneous subarachnoid thirty patients were diagnosed as aneurysm.Two cases were not diagnosed.Conclusion 3D-CTA may be the first examination method in spontaneous subarchnoid hemorrhage.

Objective: To investigate the preventive and theraputic effects of Astragalus and Angelica mixture(A&A)on renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis after unilateral ureteral obstruction(UUO)in rats and their mechanisms. Methods: UUO rats were randomly divided into Sham, UUO, A&A or ACEI groups. A&A, ACEI or the same amount of water was administered by gavage beginning 24 hours before UUO preparation and continued through ten days after UUO. Sera and the kidney tissues were collected from each group on the tenth day. Scr and BUN were measured. Trichrome staining, measurement of tubulo interstitial damage index and immunohistochemical studies localizing ? smooth muscle actin(? SMA), TGF ? 1, fibronectin(FN), laminin(LN)were carried out. Results: In UUO rats, the tubular interstitial damage index, the expressions of ? SMA, TGF ? 1, FN and LN were all increased compared with those of Sham group. The tubulo interstitial damage index had positive correlation with expressions of ? SMA, TGF ? 1, FN and LN. A&A significantly ameliorated deterioration of renal function, tubulo interstitial damage index and inhibited the over expressions of ? SMA, TGF ? 1, FN and LN in UUO rats. These anti fibrotic effects were similar to those affected by ACEI. Conclusion: In renal interstitial fibrosis induced UUO rats, A&A retard the progression of renal fibrosis and renal function deterioration by inhibiting myofibroblasts and suppressing TGF ? 1 expression, which may consequently result in a decreased production of extracellular matrix.

ObjectiveTo study the clinical and pathological characteristics of tubulointerstitial nephropathy associated with Chinese herb patent Guan Xin Su He Wan(GXSHW-TIN).Methods15 patients with GXSHW-TIN were studied.Clinical and pathological data were semi-quantitatively assessed.Relationships between medication and the incidence,clinical characteristics and the outcome of the disease were analyzed.ResultsAll the patients had chronic renal failure when GXSHW-TIN was diagnosed.They all got the disease after long-term taking of GXSHW in routine dosage.Most of the patients presented gastrointestinal dysfunction,abnormal urine analysis and mild to moderate anemia as onset symptoms.The pathological characteristics were similar to those of Guanmutong(Aristolochia manshuriensis Kom) induced chronic aristolochic acid nephropathy(AAN).ConclusionLong-term taking of GXSHW,which contains Radix Aristolochiae,might induce AAN.It indicates that GXSHW should be causious for clinical use,the ban of Radix Aristolochiae in the pharmaceutical market needs to be considered for prevention of AAN.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of surgical treatment of acetabular fractures. Methods From June 1995 to December 2000, 62 cases of acetabular fracture with dislocation were treated with open reduction and internal fixation. There were 13 cases with fractures of the posterior wall, two with posterior column fractures, three with anterior column fractures, five with transverse fractures, 15 with transverse and posterior wall fractures, three with posterior column and wall fractures, five with T-shaped fractures, four with anterior and hemi-transverse fractures and 12 with fractures of both column. Kocher-Langenbeck (K-L) approach was applied in 37 cases, ilioinguinal approach in 12, extended iliofemoral approach in four, iliofemoral approach in two, and combined approaches (K-L+ilio-inguinal) in seven. Results Anatomic reduction was done in 37 cases, with satisfactory results in 17 and unsatisfactory results in eight. Reduction for joint vallatae was performed in four cases. The follow-up was 1-5 years (average 2.7 years). The total excellence rate of clinical results was 71% (44/62), with excellence rate in anatomic and non-anatomic reduction groups for 89% (33/37) and 44% (11/25), respectively, with a very significant difference (?2=22.89, P

Objective To objectively evaluate the endpoint ot transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) using two dimensional color-coded digital subtraction angiography (2D-ccDSA).Methods Retrospective analysis of twenty-four patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),treated by TACE and evaluated by post-processed 2D-ccDSA.All patients were examined by DSA before and after TACE procedure,all these DSA series were converted into color-code images,the time density curve (TDC) was derived from the 2D-ccDSA imaging.Time-to-peak (TTP) was measured for the ostia of the catheter,the origin of the tumor feeding artery (TFA) and the embolized site of the TFA; maximal TDC enhancement was measured for selected spots of the tumor parenchyma.The tumor blood supply time (TBST) for pre and post-TACE was calculated accordingly.Data were interpreted with paired t test using SPSS.Results The TTP of the ostia of the catheter and the origin of the tumor feeding artery (TFA) before TACE were (3.47 ± 0.96) and (4.09 ± 1.09) s,after the TACE were (3.49 ± 1.02) and (3.78 ± 1.05) s,respectively.There was no statistical difference between the pre-and post-procedural TTP of the two landmarks (t values were 0.10 and 1.15,P values were 0.92 and 0.26).TTP at the embolized site of the main TFA were [(4.62± 1.16) and (5.59± 1.57)s]for pre and post-TACE,the tumor blood supply time (TBST) was greatly delayed compared with that after the TACE procedure [(1.82± 1.10)s and (0.52±0.41)s].The mean maximal TDC enhancements of the tumor parenchyma areas were (3.03±0.88)units before TACE and (1.10±0.67)units after TACE.The differences were all statistically significant (t values were 3.32,6.04 and 8.93,respectively,P＜0.01) Conclusion It is feasible to use 2D-ccDSA to objectively assess the endpoint of TACE procedures.

Purpose To establish myocardial infarction model in rabbits and to evaluate cardiac function and pathological changes.Materials and Methods In 35 New Zealand white rabbits, the left anterior descending branch (LAD) of the coronary artery was ligated. The cardiac function was evaluated using echocardiography, and the blood serum brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) level was examined preoperatively, on postoperative day 1, and in 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 8 weeks for comparison. Pathological sections and HE staining were performed to observe pathological changes. Results The death rate was 28.6% (10/35). There was progressive increase in left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVESD) and left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) at 1 week, 2 weeks and 4 weeks (P<0.05). There was progressive decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular fractional shortening fraction (LVFS) at 1 day, 1 week, 2 weeks and 4 weeks (P<0.05). The BNP level started increasing in 1 day, peaked in 1 week, then gradually decreased but remained higher than preoperative level in 8 weeks (P<0.01). Pathological section showed typical myocardial cell degeneration, necrosis, ifbrosis, calciifcation and scar formation. Conclusion This myocardial infarction model is satisfactory with signiifcant decrease of cardiac function and increase of BNP level.
