Objective To investigagte the effect of high dose folic acid(FA) combined with vitamin B_(12) to homocysteine plasma level in maintenance hemodialysis(MHD) patients.Methods 52 MHD patients were randomly divided into 4 groups,receiving of FA 0,15,30,60mg/d orally for 3 months and those who receiced folic acid were given vitamin B_(12) 500?g/d,im.The levels of plasma FA,vitamin B_(12) and total homocysteine(tHcy) at 0,1,2,3,6 month were detemined by radioimmunoassay and flurescence polarization immunoassay respectively.Results Levels of tHcy in MHD patients were significantly higher than those in healthy controls.Both high dose and low dose FA could lower tHcy plasma concentrations,but had no significant difference in homocysteine reduction ratio,and could not normalize it.Three doses of FA combined with vitamin B_(12) treatment could effectively increase the plasma FA and vitamin B_(12) concentrations.Conclusion tHcy is elevated in the majority of MHD patients.Low dose of FA combined with vitamin B_(12) can decrease tHcy plasma levels,but cannot normalize it.

Taking Suxi Healthcare Center in Yiwu City, Zhejiang province as an example, the paper analyzed the present mission and organizational characteristics of township healthcare centers in China, especially their dual functionality of community public health and primary medicare. Based on such analysis, it designed a matrix-based model for organizational structure and job performance management for such heslthcare centers. The features are as follows. 1) The two dimensions of the matrix structure refer to the departments for medical treatment and the multi-village doctors team in the community, respectively and jointly offering primary medicare and public health services; 2) Jobs are designed based on the organizational structure and functionality. Every job carries out dual Junctions as described and managed by the job description and target responsibility certificate; 3) The job responsibility certificate is a breakdown of the balanced scorecard of the healthcare center, as divided between the departments for medical treatment and the multi-village doctors team; 4) The balanced scorecard of the township healthcare center is designed based on its strategic mission and developing plan. The entire organizational design and management of the center are built on the strategic orientation and logical programmed research.

Objective This study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials(RCTs)assessing the clinical efficacy of acupuncture for chronic stable angina(CSA).Methods PubMed,The Cochrane Library,Embase,CNKI,VIP,WanFang Data,CBM databases,ClinicalTrial.gov and Chinese Clinical Trial Registry were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of acupuncture for CSA and only RCTs that included acupuncture as the sole or combination of acupuncture in the treatment of CSA.The retrieval period was from the establishment of the database to May 19,2022.The primary outcome measure was the frequency of angina attacks,and the secondary outcome measures were angina efficacy,total effective rate of ECG improvement,nitroglycerin use after treatment,patient-perceived overall effectiveness,performance on the Six-Minute Walk Test(6-MWT),depression as measured by the anxiety as measured by the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS),adverse effects.Results Twelve studies with a total of 1605 case subjects were included and grade quality of evidence reviews had 1 outcomes as medium quality evidence,5 outcomes as low quality evidence and 4 outcomes as very low quality evidence.Acupuncture treatment resulted in significantly greater reductions in angina attacks,visual analog scale(VAS),6-minute walk test,angina efficacy,electrocardiogram improvement rate,angina efficacy,total clinical response rate.Conclusion The efficacy of acupuncture combined with western medicine in treating CSA is better than that of Western medicine alone,thanks to restricted by the number and quality of included researchs,higher quality studies are required to prove above conclusions.

Objective To study the characteristics of hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) and the differences in blood and urine metabolic index and their correlation.Methods A total of 137 patients with HPA diagnosed by the Pediatric Inherit Metabolism and Endocrine Department,Guangdong Women and Children's Hospital,Guangzhou Medical University from January 2014 to June 2017,were enrolled.Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS),gas chromatography/ mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were used to analyze the concentration of blood and urine metabolites in children,and the patients were divided into different groups according to the drug load test of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) and dihydrobiopterindine reductase (DHPR) deficiency.The HPA metabolite analysis of horizontal concentration by statistical differences and correlation analysis were performed.Results Among the 137 cases of HPA,there were 101 cases (73.7%) of phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency (PAH),and among them 21 cases (15.3%) were classic phenylketonuria (PKU),37 cases were mild PKU (27.0%),43 cases (31.4%) wcrc mild HPA.Thcrc were 22 cases (16.1%) with BH4 reaction,and 79 cases (57.7%) of non-reactive type.Besides,there were 36 cases (26.3%) of tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency (BH4 D),of which 6-pyruvoyl tetrahydropterin synthase deficiency (PTPS) in 34 cases (24.8%) and dihydrobiopterindine reductase deficiency (DHPR) in 2 cases (1.5%).Urinary phenylacetic acid (r =0.673,P < 0.01),phenyllactic acid (r =0.736,P < 0.01),phenylpyruvic acid (r =0.642,P < 0.01) were significantly correlated with blood phenylalanine (Phe) concentration,and the neopterin (N) (r =0.442,P < 0.01) and biopterin (B) (r =0.398,P < 0.01) had low correlation.Urinary phenylacetic acid,phenyllactic acid and phenylpyruvic acid had no correlation with urinary pterin.There were significant differences among PTPS deficiency group,BH4 response type,and non-reactive type(all P < 0.05),but no significant difference between the BH4 reaction type and the non-reactive group (P > 0.05).Conclusions Through the analysis of the different types of HPA metabolic profiles,it can help to master the incidence and characteristics in the region,within a certain concentration range of blood Phe,the phenylacetic acid,phenyllactic acid,phenylpyruvic acid should not be tested by GC-MS alone.Uterine erythropoietin analysis of BH4D classification and identification of BH4 reaction,non-reactive PKU have a supporting role,so master the metabolic index of various types of concentration and relevance of HPA,it can provide basis for early diagnosis,accurate treatment and follow-up.
