Quality variation and ecotype classification of Chinese herbal medicine are important scientific problems in Daodi herbal medicine research. The diversity of natural environmental conditions has led to form unique multi-Daodi, multi-product areas that produce particular Chinese herbal medicine. China is one of three big American ginseng (Panax quinquefolium L.) producing areas worldwide, with over 300 years of application and 40 years of cultivation history. Long-term production practice has led to the formation of three big advocate produce areas in China: Northeast province, Beijing and Shandong. P. quinquefolium L. grown under certain environmental conditions will develop long-term adaptations that will lead to more stable strains (different ecotypes). P. quinquefolium L., can vary greatly in quality; however, the ecological mechanisms causing this variation are still unclear. Root samples were collected from four-year-old cultivated P. quinquefolium L. plants in the three major genuine (Daodi) American ginseng-producing areas of Northeast province, Beijing and Shandong province, China. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography was used to analyze the contents of eight ginsenosides (Rg1, Re, Rb1, Rb2, Rb3, Rc, Rd, Rg2). Data for nine ecological factors, including temperature, moisture and sunlight, were obtained from the ecological database of Geographic Information System for Traditional Chinese Medicine. Soil samples from the sampling sites were collected. Effective boron and iron, available nitrogen and potassium, as well as other trace elements and soil nutrients, were determined by conventional soil physicochemical property assay methods. Analytical methods of biostatistics and numerical taxonomy were used to divide ecotypes of the three main Panax quinquefolium L. producing areas in China based on ginsenoside content, climate, soil and other ecological factors. To our knowledge, this is the first time that ecological division of P. quinquefolium L. producing areas in China has ever been conducted. The results show that there are two chemoecotypes of P. quinquefolium L. in China: ginsenoside Rb1-Re from outside Shanhaiguan, and ginsenoside Rg2-Rd from inside Shanhaiguan. Similarly, there are two types of climatic characteristics: inside Shanhaiguan (Beijing, Shandong) and outside Shanhaiguan (Northeast). This suggests that the formation and differentiation of chemoecotypes of P. quinquefolium L. is closely related to variability of the climatic and geographical environment. Additionally, ecological variation of the three main producing areas, characteristics of two climatic ecotypes, and soil characteristics are also discussed and summarized. These results provide experimental scientific evidence of the quality variation and ecological adaptation of P. quinquefolium L. from different producing areas. They also deepen our understanding of the biological nature of Daodi P. quinquefolium L. formation, and offer novel research models for other multi-origin, multi-Daodi Chinese herbal medicines ecotypes. In addition, the results demonstrate the critical need for improving quality, appropriate ecological regionalization and promoting industrialized development of P. quinquefolium L.

Objeetive To discuss the correlation of creatinine reduction ratio(CRR2)from posttransplant day 1 to day 2 and early graft function recovery status after kidney transplantation. Methods Clinical data of 80 patients after renal transplantation from Jan 2005 to Mar 2007 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into three groups according to the post-operative serum creatinine level:53 patients within IGF group[cereatinine<265.2 μmol/L by post-operative day(POD)no.5],14 patients within SGF group(creatinine>265.2 μmol/L on POD no.5,but no need for dialysis),and 13 patients within DGF group(need for dialysis in the first week post-transplant).Then the value and 99%CI of CRRz of these three groups were calculated. Results The value of CRR2 of IGF,SGF and DGF was(46.8±14.6)%,(25.6±13.5)%and(0.7±17.7)%respectively.And CRR2 99%CI of IGF,SGF and DGF was 41%-52%,15%-36%and-14%-16 0A respectively.There was significant difference in the value of CRR2 among IGF,SGF and DGF group.So a criteria for early diagnosis of IGF,SGF and DGF by CRR2 99%C1 was established:IGF(CRR2≥40%),SGF (15%<CRR2<40%)and DGF(CRR2≤15%). Conclusion CRR2 has a good correlation with early graft function recovery after kidney transplantation,and can be used to predict the occurrence of SGF and DGF.

OBJECTIVETo understand the high risk behaviors of female sex workers (FSWs) in Yunnan province in 2013.
METHODSA cross-sectional investigation was conducted during April to June, 2013 in Yunnan province, census was used to the investigation where the number of FSWs was close to 200, while probability sampling was used where the number of FSWs was obviously over 200. A total of 25 574 cases were investigated, and data on demography and risk behaviors were obtained by questionnaires one by one.
RESULTSA total of 25 574 cases were investigated, AIDS awareness among FSWs in high-level places, middle-level places and low-level place were 98.8% (92/7 401), 98.6% (150/10 995), and 96.0% (281/6 655). FSWs from low-level place had a lower rate than those from the other two types of places (P < 0.01). The rate of condom use each time when having sex with clients within the recent one month among FESs from high-level places, middle-level places and low-level place were 93.4% (6 307/6 755), 93.8% (10 109/10 782) and 90.4% (6 053/6 697), and the FSWs working in low-level place had a lower rate than those from the other two types of places(P < 0.01). Multi-factor logistic regression analysis showed that the following had a lower rate of condom use: the FSWs working in low-level place (OR = 1.56, 95% CI:1.36-1.79; OR = 1.36, 1.16-1.59), over 30 years old (OR = 0.77, 95%CI:0.69-0.85), Yunnan citizen (OR = 0.88, 95% CI:0.77-1.00), minority (OR = 1.32, 95% CI:1.16-1.50), under senior high school (OR = 0.61, 95%CI:0.49-0.75), married (OR = 0.81, 95% CI:0.71-0.92), living together (OR = 0.70, 95% CI:0.51-0.96), divorced or lost spouses (OR = 0.81, 95% CI:0.65-1.02), worked less than 6 months in local areas (OR = 1.74, 95% CI:1.34-2.27), drug users (OR = 1.65, 95% CI:1.11-2.46), had not accepted HIV interventions (OR = 2.91, 95% CI:2.36-3.58), had no knowledge about AIDS (OR = 4.50, 95% CI:3.48-5.82). The main reasons for not using condoms were the clients' unwilling to use, which accounted for 47.62% (270/567). The total rate of drug use was 1.0% (264/25 567) and the FSWs working in middle-level places had the highest rate of injecting drugs, which accounted for 0.6% (70/11 141). The FSWs working in low-level places had a higher rate than those who worked in high-level places and middle-level places in venereal diseases, which accounted for 1.2% (85/6 934) (P < 0.01). The rate of receiving effective interventions was 96.7% (24 717/25 574), the rate of accepting treatment and clean needles among drug users was 21.6% (57/264).
CONCLUSIONHigh risk behaviors were serious among the FSWs who worked in low-level places, especially among the olders, the minorities, people who had lower educational level, the new-comer and drug users, which indicated that more attention needs to be paid among these populations.

ObjectiveKey microRNAs (miRNAs) of colorectal adenoma (CRA) were identified and analyzed by bioinformatics methods, and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened to construct regulatory relationships. The mechanism of Xiezhuo Jiedu recipe in preventing CRA was speculated and verified by animal experiments. MethodThe miRNAs dataset GSE50194 was obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database of intestinal mucosal tissue of CRA patients, and the differentially expressed miRNAs were screened by GEO2R and Excel. TargetScan, miRTarbase, and miRDB databases were used to predict the target genes of the differentially expressed miRNAs, and an intersection was obtained. Key DEGs were screened through the STRING database and Cytoscape software, and the TRRUST database was used to predict downstream binding transcription factors (TFs). The mRNA intersection was enriched by gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) in the Metascape database. DIANA TOOLS were applied to perform KEGG enrichment analysis of key miRNAs, and the key signaling pathways were selected for animal experiments. In animal experiments, the CRA mice model was established by using sodium glycan sulfate (DSS) drinking combined with intraperitoneal injection of azomethane oxide (AOM), and Xiezhuo Jiedu recipe and aspirin were given by intragastric administration at the same time. The experiment lasted for nine weeks. The pathological changes in intestinal tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to detect the mRNA expression of miR-34a-5p in adenoma tissue. Protein expression levels of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), protein kinase B (Akt), phosphoryl-PI3K (p-PI3K), phosphoryl-Akt (p-Akt), and B cell lymphoma (Bcl)-2 were detected by Western blot. The expression of Cyclin D1 (CCND1) was detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC). In situ terminal transferase labeling (TUNEL) was used to detect apoptosis of adenoma tissue cells. ResultThe GEO database screened the GSE50194 dataset, and miR-34a-5p was selected as the research object from CRA and normal tissue. A total of 93 DEGs were selected. Among them, GO and KEGG enrichment analyses were closely related to biological processes such as transcriptional regulatory complex, RNA polymerase Ⅱ transcriptional regulatory complex, enzyme-linked receptor protein signaling pathway, and DNA-binding transcriptional activator activity, cancer pathway, PI3K/Akt pathway, etc. miR-34a-5p is mainly enriched in PI3K/Akt, cell cycle, and colorectal cancer pathways. Five key DEGs were screened out through the Matescape database, among which Bcl-2 and CCND1 were the key DEGs of miR-34a-5p. Further screening of the TFs of key DEGs revealed that E2F transcription factor 1 (E2F1) and tumor protein P53 (TP53) were the main TFs of Bcl-2 and CCND1. Animal experiments showed that Xiezhuo Jiedu recipe could effectively up-regulate mRNA level of miR-34a-5p, down-regulate the expression of PI3K, Akt, Bcl-2, p-PI3K, and p-Akt proteins in the intestinal tissue of CRA mice, down-regulate the positive expression rate of CCND1, and increase the apoptosis rate of intestinal epithelial cells. ConclusionIt is speculated that Xiezhuo Jiedu recipe may inhibit the abnormal proliferation and promote the apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells in CRA mice by regulating the miR-34a-5p/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, thus playing a role in the prevention of CRA.
