Conclusion　The intelligent quotient of TS patients was lower than that of normal children, TS patients had more imbalance in intelligence development.

Objective To explore the effect of heterosexual interaction training on rehabilitation in first-episode schizophrenic patients. Methods 246 patients of first-episode schizophrenic were divided into the study group and the control group with 123 cases in each group at random. Both groups were treat-ed with conventional pharmacotherapy under the orders of physicians in hospital. For the study group,both the male patients and the female patients took part in entertainment treatment activities,eating and interaction training together during the day, then they lived separately at night. Two groups were evaluated with BPRS and ITAQ before treatment and at the 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th week after treatment. Results The BPRS scores of the study group were significantly lower than the control group after 4th, 6th,and 8th week. The ITAQ scores of the study group were significantly higher than the control group after 4th, 6th,and 8th week. Conclusions The application of heterosexual interaction training in schizophrenic patients can alleviate illness condition, improve treatment compliance and rehabilitation.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of interventional therapy by direct puncture for the treatment of avascular necrosis of the femoral head. Methods 24 experimental rabbits were undertaken and divided randomly into 3 groups, B, C groups as the models of hormone induced necrosis of femoral head, and A group as the control one. B group was followed up later with interventional therapy by direct puncture. Thromolytic agents, drugs improving microcirculation, and repairing bone tissue were infused directly into the femoral head; and then microscopic observations were conducted to study the pathology. Results The results showed: in group B, the number of vacant bony lacunae in femoral head, the average diameter of fat cells in marrow cavity and the number of blood vessel in subchondral areas showed significant improvement, approaching group A. Conclusions Treatment of femoral head necrosis through interventional method of direct puncture has commenced a solid foundation for clinical therapy.

The drug serum in this formula can alleviate neurotoxic reaction of nerve tumor cell NG 108-15 to beta-amyloid protein. In order to understand further the mechanism and compatibility of the formula, it is necessary to carry on the study on the broken formulas.OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of drug serum in subgroups of broken bushen yizhi formulas on growth and differentiation of cell model of Alzheimer disease and probe into the compatibility rule of bushen yizhi formula in view of serum pharmacology.DESIGN: Randomized controlled experiment.SETTING: DME Center of Clinical Pharmacological Institute Affiliated to Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.PARTICIPANTS:The experiment was performed in DME Center of Clinical Pharmacological Institute Affiliated to Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January to August 2003, in which, 40 healthy male SD rats of 3 months old were employed and NG108-15 cell line was frozen-preserved.into the control, original formula group (No. 1 group) [shechuanzi (Cnidium monnieri (L.) Cuss), gouqizi (Lycium barbarum L.), renshen (Panax ginseng C.A.Mey.), heshouwu (Polygonum multiflorum Thunb.), danpi (Paeonia Suffruticisa Andr.) and bingpian (Borneolum)], kidney replenishment group (No.2 group) [shechuanzi (Cnidium monnieri (L.) Cuss), gouqizi (Lycium barbarum L.), etc.], group for benefiting qi and nourishing blood (No.3 group)[renshen (Panaz ginseng C.A.Mey), zhishouwu (Polygonum multiflorum Thunb.), etc.] and group with bingpian (Borneolum) removed (No.4 group)[Panax ginseng C.A.Mey.], heshouwu (Polygonum multiflorum Thunb.) and danpi (Paeonia Suffruticisa Andr.)], 8 rats in each group. The concentrated Chinese herbal solutions of every group were applied at 10 μL/g (equal to 6 g/kg of raw herbs) for gastric infusion successively,continuously for 1 month. In the control, the physical saline solution of equal dosage was used for infusion. Two hours after the last gastric infusion in rats of each group,the blood was collected from heart after anesthesia and the serum was sepaNG108-15 cell cultured in vitro was divided into 6 groups. In the control and model group, normal rat serum was contained in proliferated culture solution. In the rest 4 groups, the drug serum of No. 1 group and 3 sub-groups was contained.Simultaneously, beta-amyloid protein 25-35 in each hole was prepared to the terminal concentration 5 μmol/L (except in the control) and the culture went on for 48 hours.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:MTT method was used to determine proliferated number and survival rate of cells. Simultaneously, the ratio of neurite cells to total cell count and average length of neurit were determined.icantly than the control (0.520±0.022, 0.665±0.037, P ＜ 0.01), and that in every drug serum group was higher than model group, of which, the result vival rate of differentiated cells: That in model group was lower significantly than the control (58.4%, 100%) and that in every drug serum group was higher than model group, of which, the result in No.4 group was the most tal cell count: That in model group was lower significantly than the control [(42.95±11.42)%, (58.75±12.84)%, P ＜ 0.01] and that in every drug serum group was higher than model group, of which, the result in No.4 group was rite: That in model group was shorter significantly than the control [(356.0 ±109.0), (493.8±133.0) μm, P ＜ 0.01] and that in every drug serum group was longer than model group, of which, the result in No.4 group was the most significant [(486.8±79.2) μm, P ＜ 0.01].CONCLUSION: The drug serum in all of bushen yizhi formula and every subgroup inhibits at certain extent the injury of beta-amyloid protein 25-35 to NG108-15 cell, but the results of each group are various. The protection of drug serum to the cell in every group is in the sequence from strong to weak as group with bingpian removed ＞ original formula group ＞ kidney replenishment group ＞ group for benefiting qi and nourishing blood. It is to expect a further study on the efficacy of group with bingpian removed.

Objective To study the body composition of public security staffs and to prevent sub-health condition positively. Methods Body compositions of 771 public security staffs were measured and analyzed with bioelectrical impedance analytic process (BIA). Results The male public security staffs had obviously lower body fat percentage (P< 0.01) but higher body mass index and obesity (P<0.05) than female public security staffs. Both male and female public security staffs fad the highest content of fat in the lower limbs. The body part ranked the second place, followed by the upper limbs. Measured by body-fat percentage(BF%), the obesity rate of the male and female staffs was 10.08% and 45.59% respectively. Measured by body mass index (BMI), the hypergravity rate of the male and female staffs was 44.09% and 20.59% respectively; and the obesity rate of the male and female staffs was 8.35% and 0.74% respectively. Measured by obesity degree (OBD), the hypergravity rate of the male and female staffs was 21.73% and 4.41% respectively; and the obesity rate of the male and female staffs was 11.65% and 1.47% respectively. Conclusion Public security staffs should pay attention to their over-weight and hyper-fat level. Proper dict and body exercise are needed.

Objective To identify the common clinical symptoms and signs of pectoral qi insufficiency syndrome;To provide evidence for its clinical treatment.Methods By retrieving 129 medical cases related to pectoral qi insufficiency syndrome in CNKI from January 1954 to October 2013 and Wanfang Database from January 1985 to October 2013, the authors made a statistical analysis of the symptoms and signs in medical cases related to pectoral qi insufficiency syndrome and elementarily generalized the common clinical characterization on pectoral qi insufficiency syndrome under the guidance of the TCM specialists.Results The cardinal syndromes of common clinical manifestation on pectoral qi insufficiency syndrome were shortness of breath and panting on exertion. The concomitant syndromes were pale or dim complexion, lassitude of spirit, lack of strength, shortage of qi and disinclination to talk, inability to sleep, dizziness, dizzy vision, etc. And it commonly superimposed failing to circulation qi-blood of cardiopulmonary as oppression in the chest, chest pain, palpitations, cyanosis, cough, etc, dysfunction of the spleen in transportation and transformation as torpid intake, sloppy stool, abdominal distension, and impairment of qi transformation due to Yang deficiency as cold limbs, fear of cold, edema, inhibited urination, and dry mouth.Conclusion The authors summarized cardinal syndrome, concomitant syndromes and superimposed symptoms on pectoral qi insufficiency syndrome from reported medical cases, which can provide scientific basis for normalizing the clinical diagnosis and treatment and interpreting the scientific connotation of pectoral qi insufficiency syndrome.

In this paper, through a systematic review of literatures on pectoral qi theory, we summarized the defini-tion of pectoral qi, physiological function, deficiency-excess changes, clinical manifestations of pectoral qi deficiency and modern research progress of pectoral qi theory, in order to deepen the understanding of pectoral qi connotation. The connotations of pectoral qi have four major kinds of views. The pectoral qi is a combination of the natural fresh air inhaled by the lungs and the foodstuff essence-qi transformed by the spleen-stomach accumulated in the thorax. The substance of pectoral qi is heart-lung yang qi. Pectoral qi is the special title of acquired essences in the thorax. Pectoral qi accumulated in the thorax is the beating-qi beneath the left breast. Its physiological function includes flowing through the respiratory tract to promote the respiration movement of the lungs, permeating the heart and ves-sels to promote circulation of qi and blood, comprehensively regulating of the heart and lungs, controlling all qi and zang-fu, accumulating body fluids, resisting external evils, controlling mental activities, maintaining mental state healthy and vigorousness, controlling vision, hearing, sound, color, smell and movement, converging primordial qi to maintain the vigor and vitality. Disorders of pectoral qi are mainly manifested as deficiency or excess. Deficiency is mainly manifested in pectoral qi insufficiency, or pectoral qi sinking. Excess is mainly manifested in pectoral qi ob-struction, or pectoral qi counterflow. The common clinical manifestations of pectoral qi insufficiency include short-ness of breath and panting on exertion. The concomitant symptoms are pale or dim complexion, lassitude, lack of strength, shortage of breath and disinclination to talk, insomnia, dizziness, spontaneous sweating, emaciation, darkish tongue with thin and white fur, sunken thin or weak pulse. And it commonly superimposed with failing to circulation qi-blood of heart and lungs as chest distress, chest pain, palpitations, cyanosis, cough, expectoration, and hard stool. Spleen transportation and transformation dysfunction were manifested as poor appetite, loose stool, and abdominal dis-tension. Impairment of qi transformation due to yang deficiency is manifested as cold limbs, aversion to cold, edema, urination difficulty, and dry mouth. In addition, diseases which are treated with pectoral qi are give priority to the heart-lung diseases, and then gradually extend to diseases of other systems. At the same time, there are many reports on using pectoral qi theory in disease treatment. The essence of pectoral qi is also discussed from the perspective of modern medicine. Generally speaking, pectoral qi theory has been put forward early; however, the systematic study is difficult to meet the needs of clinical diagnosis and treatment. There are many problems which remain to be further studied and solved.
