OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy and safety of Sanjin tablets in the treatment of urinary tract infection. METHODS: Retrieved from electronic databases and references literatures by on-line or manual way, RCTs about Sanjin tablets in the treatment of urinary tract infection were collected. Related data were obtained and analyzed with evidence-based medical software statistically. RESULTS: 1 046 patients in 13 studies with were included. Two studies showed that Sanjin tablets had better effect than amoxicillin, ciprofloxacin, erythromycin and norfloxacin in the treatment of urinary tract infections. One study showed there was no significant difference in efficacy of Sanjin tablets and Modified juling tang. Other trials showed that there was no difference in efficacy between Sanjin tablets and Chinese herbal medicine, antibiotics. Three trials showed Sanjin tablets combined with Chinese herbal medicine or antibiotics had the same effect with antibiotics alone in the treatment of urinary tract infection. No severe ADR induced by Sanjin tablets was found in included studies. Funnel plot which assumed asymmetry indicated the existence of publication bias and unsatisfactory methodological quality. CONCLUSION: Few trials show efficacy of Sanjin tablets are better than antibiotics. Most of studies show that there is no significant difference between Sanjin tablets and antibiotics. At present no evidence indicate that efficacy of Sanjin tablet is superior to other drugs. The methodological quality of clinical trials of Sanjin tablets for urinary tract infections should be improved.

BACKGROUND:Tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) can inhibit the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), but it is uncertain that TMP inhibit the growth and proliferation of HL-60 leukemic cells induced by VEGF.OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of TMP on the proliferation of HL-60 leukemic cells induced by VEGF.DESIGN:Repetitive measurement and observation.SETTING:School of Medicine, Wuhan University of Science and Technology.MATERIALS:The experiment was carried out in the Molecular Biology Laboratory Center, School of Medicine, Wuhan University of Science and Technology from March to June in 2007. Human leukemic cell line HL-60 cells were purchased from Shanghai Institute of Cell Biology. TMP hydrochloride injection was produced by Wuxi Seventh Pharmaceutical Products Limited (Lot number:011014), protamine sulfate injection was produced by Shanghai First Biochemical Pharmaceuticals (Batch number:010302), and immunohistochemistry kit was purchased from Boster company.METHODS:①Human leukemic cell line HL-60 cells at log phase were used for the experiments. Cells were treated with 100 μg/L VEGF, and then TMP at final concentrations of 1.5, 15, 150 mg/L was added into culture medium. While the cells in medium without TMP were taken as blank control group, and the cells in medium with 20 mg/L protamine as positive control group. Meanwhile cells without treatment of VEGF were served as VEGF control group. After cells were incubated for 48 hours, the growth inhibiting rate of HL-60 cells was detected by MTT assay.②After HL-60 cells were treated with TMP at the final concentrations of 1.5, 15, 150 mg/L for 24 hours, the protein expression of VEGF in HL-60 cells was examined by SP immunohistochemistry.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:①Growth inhibiting rate of HL-60 cells.②Protein expression of VEGF.RESULTS:①Growth inhibiting rate of HL-60 cells:After HL-60 cells induced by VEGF were treated with 15 and 150 mg/L TMP, the absorbance value was significantly lower than that in VEGF control group (P < 0.05).②Protein expression of VEGF:After HL-60 cells were treated with TMP for 24 hours, the protein expression of VEGF was down-regulated with increasing TMP concentration in a dependent manner. Significant differences were observed in the protein expression of VEGF between cells treated by TMP and the controls (P < 0.01).CONCLUSION:TMP can inhibit the proliferation of HL-60 cells stimulated by VEGF and down-regulate the expression of VEGF.

Isokinetic training, as a technique of orthopaedic rehabilitation, is a new and valuable method in evaluation of muscle function and in training muscle strength. It has higher accuracy and reproducibility in evaluation of muscle function. When isokinetic training of muscle strength is done, kinetic velocity is fixed beforehand in the dynamic instrument so that the resistance matches the actual force applied by the individual. The resistance maintains the maximum throughout the range of motion and produces the greatest muscle strength. As a result, the isokinetic muscle strength is effective and safe in the orthopaedic rehabilitation.

Objective To assess the efficiency of central urban and rural hospitals in the 7 cities, counties and districts under the jurisdiction of Hangzhou City and the status of the medical markets so as to provide theoretical basis for the promotion of decentralized medical markets. Methods On the basis of defining the scope of a medical market, the HHI values of the medical markets in places where 37 hospitals in Hangzhou were located was calculated, the average efficiency of the various hospitals was measured by means of DEA, and an analysis was made on the correlation between the average efficiency and the HHI values. Results The central urban and rural medical markets in the various places surveyed, whose HHI values were all greater than 1 800, belonged to markets of monopolistic competition. Of the 37 hospitals, there were 11 whose relative efficiency reached 100% and another 11 whose relative efficiency was less than 60%. The greater the monopoly of a medical market, the lower the average efficiency of its hospitals. Conclusion Establishing competitive markets with low market concentration is an effective way of enhancing overall hospital efficiency.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of postoperative chemotherapy in patients with early-stage pulmonary large cell neu-roendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) after resection. Methods:A cohort of 50 patients who underwent resection and systematic nodal dissection for LCNEC between January 2008 and December 2014 in our institution was retrospectively reviewed. The patients were divided into adjuvant chemotherapy group (32 cases) and non-chemotherapy group (18 cases). Follow-up information was investigated. Results:The median survival and the 5-year survival rate were 48 months and 72.5%for the adjuvant chemotherapy group whereas 29 months and 35.6%for the non-adjuvant chemotherapy group, respectively. Univariate and multivariate analyses using Cox's proportional hazard models showed that postoperative chemotherapy was a signifi cant prognostic factor for OS (P=0.005;hazard ratio=0.281, P=0.008, respectively). Conclusion:Postoperative chemotherapy is beneficial to patients with early-stage pulmonary LCNEC after complete resection.

Objective:To explore the protective effect of vitexin on retinal ganglion stem cells (RGCs) from oxidative stress caused by retinal ischemia-reperfusion (RIR) in rats and its possible mechanism.Methods:Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into the model group, vitexin group and normal control group by random number table, with 20 rats in each group.The right eyes were taken as experimental eyes.Rats in the model group and the vitexin group were treated with anterior chamber perfusion to establish RIR models.Rats in the vitexin group were given intraperitoneal injection of vitexin at a dose of 25 mg/(kg·d) for 7 days.Rats in the model group were intraperitoneally injected with the same volume of normal saline.For the normal control group, the experimental eyes underwent anterior chamber puncture without increasing the intraocular pressure, and were intraperitoneally injected with the same volume of normal saline.On the 7th day following modeling, the rats were sacrificed by overdose anesthesia.Histopathology staining was used to detect the thickness of retina and the number of RGCs.Retrograde tracing with Fluoro-Gold was used to detect the density of RGCs.TUNEL staining was used to detect the apoptosis of RGCs.Colorimetric method was used to detected superoxidate dismutase (SOD) activity and concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO). Western blot method was used to detect the relative expression levels of cytoplasmic Nrf2, HO-1, NQO1, nuclear Nrf2 proteins in rat retina.The use and care of animals followed the ARVO Statement.This study protocol was approved by the Experimental Animal Ethics Committee of Henan Eye Hospital (No.HNEECA-2019-04).Results:The retinal thickness was (90.21±3.55)μm in the model group, which was significantly lower than (128.20±5.31)μm in the normal control group and (119.65±6.14)μm in the vitexin group, and the differences were statistically significant (both at P<0.05). The average density of RGCs was (1 300.85±14.00)/mm 2 in the model group, which was significantly lower than(2 330.12±15.05)/mm 2 in the normal control group and (1 921.64±11.78)/mm 2 in the vitexin group, and the differences were statistically significant (both at P<0.05). The rate of TUNEL positive RGCs was (68.34±5.04)% in the model group, which was significantly higher than (3.01±0.18)% in the normal control group and (35.51±2.04)% in the vitexin group, and the differences were statistically significant (both at P<0.05). Compared with the normal control group and the vitexin group, the SOD activity in the retinal tissue of the rats was lower and the concentrations of MDA and NO were higher in the model group, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.05). The expression level of cytoplasmic Nrf2 protein was the lowest in the vitexin group, then following the model group and the normal control group, and the relative expression levels of HO-1, NQO1 and nuclear Nrf2 protein were the highest in the vitexin group, then followed the model group and normal control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.05). Conclusions:Vitexin can reduce the apoptosis of RGCs and alleviate oxidative stress damage of retina in RIR rat model.This protective effect may be achieved by activating Nrf2-related signaling pathway.
