Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of Jianwei xiaoshi oral liquid combined with mosapride on treating postprandial distress syndrome( PDS ). Methods Eighty cases patients with PDS diagnosed according to Rome-Ⅲ PDS diagnostic criteria were randomly assigned into treatment group and control group. Patients in treatment group were treated with jianwei xiaoshi oral liquid( 1 bottle/times,3 tiems/d,after meals)and mosapride,and in the control group were taken mosapride(5 mg/times,3 times/d, before meals)only for 4 weeks. After the end of treatment,the improvement of the symptoms,the total symptoms score,the total effective rate and adverse drug reaction were recorded. Results After the treatment,symptoms were relieved in both groups. The total symptoms score of the treatment group was(2. 90 ± 1. 39)scores,lower than that in before((11. 14 ± 1. 86)scores),and the difference was significant(t=22. 328,P﹤0. 01). The total symptoms score in treatment group was(2. 90 ± 1. 39)scores,significantly lower than the control group((4. 94 ±2. 03)scores;t =5. 217,P ﹤0. 01). The total effective rate was 87. 80%(36/41),66. 67%(26/39)in treatment and control group,and the difference was significant( t=5. 122,P﹤0. 05). There was no significant in terms of adverse drug reaction in two groups during the treatment. Conclusion Jianwei xiaoshi oral liquid combined with mosapride is a safe and effective treatment of PDS patients,which is better than using mosapride alone.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of repression of testosterone biosynthesis in rats exposed to dibutyl phthalate (DBP). Methods Immature male rats were randomly divided into 5 groups involving 4 experimental groups and one control group. Animals were administered orally either corn oil only (vehicle control) or DBP (0.25, 0.50, 1.00, 2.00 g/kg) for 30 days. After 30 days exposure, the half of animals were sacrificed with testis, epididymis and adrenal selected and weighed. The ratio of organ to body weight were calculated and histopathological examination were examined. Testosterone (T), luteinizing hormone (LH), 17?-estradiol (17?-E2) and corticosterone (CORT) were detected by radioimmunoassay. After 15 days, the rest of animals were sacrificed and above-mentioned indexes were measured. Results The ratio of testis and epididymis to body weight reduced significantly at doses of 0.50 g/kg DBP and above. The testicle atrophy was observed, germinal epithelium became thin and the amount of reproductive cells obviously decreased. All of those were not repaired in convalescence stage. In above 1.00 g/kg DBP groups, the level of T, LH and 17?-E2 decreased (P
