Objective:To investigate the effects and mechanism of Ginseng polysaccharides (GPS) on glycosaminoglycan synthesis in rat chondrocytes in vitro.Methods:Chondrocytes isolated from knee joint cartilage of rats were subcultured.After monolayers were established,chondrocytes induced by 20 ng·ml-1 IL-1β were treated with GPS respectively at the concentration of 2,10 and 50 ng ·ml-1for 48 h.The effects of GPS on chondrocytes were analyzed using MTT assay for chondrocyte proliferation and 1,9-dimethylmethylene blue assay for GAG content.mRNA content in xylosyltransferase-Ⅰ(XylT-Ⅰ),galactosyltransferase-Ⅰ(GalT-Ⅰ),galactosyltransferase Ⅱ(GalT-II) and galactose-β-1,3-glucuronosyltransferase Ⅰ(GlcAT-Ⅰ) and that in matrix-degrading enzymes matrix metalloproteinases-3 (MMP-3) and aggrecanase-1and aggrecanase-2 was also detected.Results:GPS had no toxic or proliferating effect on chondrocytes at all observed concentrations.GPS at the concentrations of 10 ng·ml-1 and 50 ng·ml-1 up-regulated GAG synthesis (P<0.01).10 ng·ml-1 GPS enhanced the mRNA expression of XylT-Ⅰ (P<0.01),and 50 ng·ml-1 GPS enhanced the mRNA expression of XylT-Ⅰ,GalT-Ⅰ and GalT-II (P<0.05,P<0.01).GPS did not inhibit the mRNA expression of matrix-degrading enzymes MMP-3 and aggrecanase-1and aggrecanase-2 enhanced by IL-1β.Conclusion:GPS can improve GAG synthesis in IL-1β stimulated chondrocytes in vitro,which is due to the expression promotion of GAG synthesis enzymes without the expression inhibition of matrix-degrading enzymes.

Objective To investigate the effective nursing measures of reducing the complications of intratra-cheal suction about mechanical ventilation patients to improve airway nursing quality. Methods 80 patients with ar-tificial air passage mechanical ventilation were divided into Control group (Group one, 40 cases) and Testing group (Group two, 40 cases) randomly. In the control group, suck at regular time after injecting normal saline solution in-to the in-airway (in order to diluted the sputum). There are improvement that nursing measures in testing group. For sample, suck sputums according to demands, choose appropriate sucking sputums tube, control the deepth of sucking sputum tube, adjust the negative pressure based on the deepth of sucking sputum tube, give pure oxygen two to three minutes before and after the suction, strengthen the airway humidfication, lubricate the sucking sputum tube with chlorotetracycline eye ointment, etc. Complications of intratracheal suction were compared in two groups. Results The comparison showed that the complications have a significant statistical difference in sputum obstruction, SpO2 de-scending to 80 percent and below during suction and airway mucous membrane traumatic hemorrhage. (P < 0.01). Conclusion The improved intratracheal suction will decrease the complications obviously like sputum obstruction, SpO2 reducing to 80 percent and below during suction and airway mucous membrane traumatic hemorrhage.

Objective To analyze the stages of liver fibrosis in patients aged older than 40 with normal ALT.Methods 84 patients with chronic HBV infected were investigated in this study. Liver function, HBeAg, HBVDNA, serum liver fibrosis indexes were tested. And liver biopsy was taken in all the patients and the tissues were stained with HE and Masson.Results 73.4% patients were at fibrosis stage 2-4. The serum fibrosis indexes correlated with the fibrosis stage of liver histology. While the levels of HBeAg and HBVDNA didn't correlate with the severity of liver fibrosis.Conclusion Liver fibrosis of patients older than 40-year-old should be analyzed synthetically with many clinical indexes. These patients should be administered with antifibrosis therapy to prevent the progression of liver cirrhosis.

Idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor (IOIP) is a common ophthalmic disease that severely damages the visual acuity and countenance of the patient,its etiology and pathogenesis are unclear.Many hypotheses have been proposed,including infection,autoimmunity and neuroendocrine mechanism,etc..These hypotheses reflect certain aspects of the etiology and pathogenesis of IOIP and provide information for further understanding of the disease.The research progression in the etiology and pathogenesis of IOIP was reviewed.

In recent years,immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-related disease) has received increasingly attention in medical community as a novel clinical entity.Although its clinical manifestation varies,high serum IgG4 concentration and numerous IgG4-positive plasma c(c)ll infiltration are the common characteristics.IgG4-related disease involves many human organs,and most one is pancreas,followed by parotid gland,bile duct,liver,lung,lymph node and so on,and orbital involvement is relatively rare.Current initial research shows that there is certain association between orbital disease with IgG4,and these diseases mainly include benign lymphoepithelial lesion,idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor,Castleman ' s disease,xanthogranuloma,Rosai-Dorfman disease etc..The researching progression in the relationship between IgG4 and orbital diseases is reviewed.

Idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor (IOIP) is a common ophthalmic disease with uncertain etiology and pathogenesis.It charactarized by chronic inflammatory cell infiltration and connective tissue proliferation.At present,its clinical treatments mainly include pharmacotherapy,radiation therapy and surgery,and the primary treating drugs include glucocorticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents.The mainstay of therapy is systemic glucocorticosteroids,although there is an increasing trend toward the use of alkylating agents,antimetabolites,monoclonal antibodies and other immunosuppressive agents.The progress in clinical treatment of IOIP was reviewed.

Objective We aimed to develop a safe, comfortable and effective perineal washer, which prevent perineum wound from infection and improve the healing of perineal wound. Methods The perineal washer was made from high polymer medical material, including two metal catheters, pressing gasbag, medical yoke and dicty blow head. We divided women patients after vagina delivery with perineum wound or after caesarean section into the observation group and the control group randomly with 120 cases in each group from Janurary to October 2007. The control group was given perineal washing by routine washing pot and cotton ball with forceps. The observation group received perineal washing by perineal washer with cleaning fluid and was scrubbed by sponge brash. The elimination of wood swelling, the healing of perineum healing, the urinary infection for patients with indwelling urinary catheterization and patients comfort degree were observed in the two groups. Results Statistical difference existed between the two groups in such aspects, elimination of wound swelling wound healing urinary tract infection and patients comfort degree, P<0.05 or P<0.01. Conclusions Adoption of self designed perineal washer accompanied with sponge brush could completely delete bacteria and inflammatory secretion deep in the vagina and prevent the incidence of infection. It not only could hasten the elimination of wound swelling, alleviate the pain and wound healing, but also was easily developed and portable to use. It provided a new and effective method for perineal washing and is worth clinical application.

The concepts of Western medicine in treating tumor have changed markedly in recent years, and begun to put more emphasis on the whole survival status of patients. With recent emergence of targeted drugs, it was found that curative effects of the same targeted drugs in treating patients with the same tumor type even the same tumor pathological subtype but different therapeutic targets may be different. On the contrary, the curative effects of different targeted drugs in treating patients with different tumor types but the same therapeutic targets may be similar. Accordingly, the viewpoint of personalized therapy is advocated in Western medicine. Under the guidance of syndrome differentiation treatment in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), patients with the same tumor and different syndromes should be treated by different herbs, and patients with different tumor and the same syndrome should be treated by the same herbs. Both the theories of "the same treatment for the same syndrome" and "the same treatment for the same therapeutic target" indicate that personalized therapy in Western medicine is similar to TCM syndrome differentiation treatment. The article focuses on "different treatments for the same disease" as well as "the same treatment for different diseases" to describe the similar points between personalized therapy and TCM syndrome differentiation treatment and thereby proves that TCM syndrome differentiation treatment is a scientific and essential approach in treating tumor. At the same time, the article also points out the problems and solution methods of TCM syndrome differentiation treatment.
