Clinically, patients with IgA nephropathy often have symptoms of sore throat or discomfort in the pharynx, which needs to be paid attention to. Traditional Chinese Medicine has certain effect in the treatment of IgA nephropathy, starting from the pharynx.There are many commonly used herbal medicines that could relieve wind, clear heat, detoxify the body and relieve sore-thoat, such as platycodon grandiflorum, dandelion, burdock and other herbs, and pecking treatment could be added to increase the curative effect.

The molecular targeted therapy method using microRNAs(miRNAs)is gradually stepping into people′s vision. miRNAs affect colorectal cancer progress via abnormal expression in tumor cells or micro-environment. The high or low expressions of miRNAs in specific tissues probably have an impact on the expressions of oncogenes,tumor suppressor genes or other aspects including the surrounding environments,the metastases and the drug tolerance of tumors,thus contributing to curing the colorectal cancer. Nowadays, miRNA has entered the stage of animal experiments.

Objective To explore the value of laparoscopic ovarian-conserving restoration for ovarian cyst torsion . Methods A total of 62 cases of ovarian cyst torsion , 12 of which were combined with pregnancy , between January 2007 and June 2012 were retrospectively analysed .The surgical management involved laparoscopic high ligation of ovary blood vessels , restoration of the ovary, and resection of ovarian cysts . Results All the 62 cases of laparoscopic restoration were successfully performed with ovarian reservation.The cysts twisted for 180°~1080°, including 19 cases of <360°, 21 cases of 360°~720°, and 22 cases of >720°.The cysts were coloured purple black in 26 cases, purple or normal in 36 cases.The operation time was (57 ±23) min, the intraoperative blood loss was 5-130 ml (mean, 50.6 ml), and anal exsufflation time was (24 ±13) hours.No embolism, infection, and abortion occurred during post-operation.The level of estrogen recovered to normal in 1-3 months postoperatively .Ovulation at the procedure side was found in 43 cases in 6-24 months. Conclusions Laparoscopic ovarian-conserving surgery is a safe procedure for ovarian cyst pedicle torsion .High ligation of ovarian blood vessles and resection of ovarian cysts can not only avoid the possibility of thrombosis but also preserve the ovarian functions .The shortage of this operation is complicated to perform .

Objective To study the relationship between serum 1,25 -dihydroxy vitamin D3 level and inflammatory factor in elderly primary hypertension patients.Methods Sixty -eight primary hypertension patients were selected as hypertension group,and 60 healthy subjects were selected as control group in this study.The serum 1,25 -dihydroxy vitamin D3 level and plasma inflammatory factor were measured and compared.Results The serum 1,25 -dihydroxy vitamin D3 level in the hypertension group was significantly lower,while plasma inflammatory factor in the hypertension group was significantly higher than in the control group(t =6.445,7.326,8.174,8.556,all P <0.01).Pearson correlation analysis showed that the serum 1,25 -dihydroxy vitamin D3 level was negatively related with systolic blood pressure,plasma diastolic blood pressure and inflammatory factor (r =-0.425, -0.367, -0.254, -0.263, -0.296,all P <0.05).Logistic repression analysis revealed that the inflammatory factor was a risk factor for hypertension,while the 1,25 -dihydroxy vitamin D3 level was a protecting factor for primary hypertension. Conclusion The serum 1,25 -dihydroxy vitamin D3 level is significantly lower in elderly primary hypertension patients than in healthy subjects.The serum 1,25 -dihydroxy vitamin D3 level and the inflammatory factor are predic-tive factors for hypertension.

Objective:To explore the change of attentive characteristics and subjective evaluation of mental fatigue un-der the condition of driving simulation.Methods:16 healthy taxi drivers(all males) were involved in this research.The change of attentive characteristics and the self-rating scale for subjective fatigue symptoms were both recorded before and after six-hour driving simulation.Because of the own control design,the drivers' attentive characteristics and self-rating scales were measured again in their off days.Results:There was significant difference in the changes of attentive charac-teristics in the experimental group,but no significant difference in the control group.And there was no significant differ-ence of subjective evaluation either in the experimental group or control group.Conclusion:Under the condition of driv-ing simulation,the attentive characteristics of drivers were changed,say,they were impaired,even though they did not per-ceive the feelings of fatigue.

Objective To observe clinical effect of treating primary dysmenorrhea of congealing cold and blood stasis type with menstruation regulating method.Methods 56 cases of primary dysmenorrhea of congealing cold and blood stasis type were divided into 30 cases as a treatment group and 26 cases as a control group with random number table.The treatment group took Buyang Huanwu decoction in ovulatory period,and took Tongjing decoction in menstrual period.Moderate and severe patients took Jinkui shenqi pill for reinforcing kidney qi for 10 days after menstrual period.The control group took Shaofu Zhuyu granules and stopped to take it until the third day of menstrual period.All patients took the medicines for 3 continuous menstrual cycles.The dysmenorrhea score pre and post treatment,pain degree and effect were observed and compared.Results Menstruation regulating method and Shaofu Zhuyu granules could both improve the clinical symptoms,but the cured and markedly effective rate and total effective rate of menstruation regulating method was better (x2=8.813,P＜0.05),especially for moderate and severe dysmenorrhea.Conclusion Menstruation regulating method can improve symptoms of primary dysmenorrhea of congealing cold and blood stasis type.

Objective To assess the relationship between coronary plaques and risk factor of coronary heart disease in a asymptomatic population.Methods A total of 604 in-patients who received coronary computerized tomography angiography (CCTA) during January 1 th,2010 and April 1 th,2011 were enrolled in this study and assigned to the non-lesion group (0),mild lesion group (0 ＜ score ≤ 5) andmoderate-severe lesion group (＞ 5) according to the third quartile of CCTA score.Clinical data including physical examination,laboratory test,ultrasound sonogram and discharge diagnoses were collected and compared between the groups.Multivariable linear regression and bivariate logistic regression were performed to find out the main risk factors of coronary heart disease.ROC curve was drawn to estimate the diagnostic value of coronary lesions.Results There were 240 individuals in the non-lesion group,271 in the mild lesion group,93 in the moderate-severe lesion group.Multivariable linear regression indicated Y =-6.56 +3.22 × mean carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) + 1.106 × male + 0.597 × low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) + 0.116 × age-1.596 × high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C).Bivariate logistic regression and ROC curve showed that mean cIMT was the main risk factor of coronary heart disease (odds ratio (OR) =7.19,ROC =0.730,P=0.00,95％ confidence interval (CI):0.68 to 0.78).Furthermore,major coronary lesions were located in the LAD (20.8％) and was soft plaque (42.5％).Conclusion In this investigation,60.2％ of the asymptomatic patients showed plaques in CCTA.Age,cIMT,LDL-C and HDL-C may be predictive to moderate to severe coronary artery lesions.
