Objective To study the clinical effect on C-IBS treated with tegaserod and bifico combined. Methods 156 patients were randomly divided into one therapy group (group A) and two control group (group B, group C). Patients in the group A were given tegaserod and bifico therapy, while those in group B were given tegaserod therapy and group C were given bifico therapy. Results After 4 weeks' clinical treatment, the rates of remission were 94.6% in group A,7 9.1 % in group B and 54.2% in group C. There were significant statistical differences among three groups(P

Congenital heart disease is the most common birth defect.With the significant improvements of cardiac surgical techniques,the survival of newborns and infants with complex congenital heart disease(CHD) has obviously been increased.However,neurological sequelae are still common and up to 25 ％ ～50％.The most important lesion after CHD surgery is white matter(WM) injury.Recent studies show that periventricular leukomalacia disease characterized by WM injury is common in C-HD infants especially after cardiac surgery.It is previously thought to be due to the cardiopulmonary bypass and surgical operation.However,with the advances in surgery and medical diagnostic technology and development of basic research in recent years,it is discovered that WM injury in infants with CHD is a complex lesion influenced by preoperative,operating and postoperative factors.The movement disorders and the defects of attention,learning and other aspects in the late growth of these children bring a huge economic burden to the family and society,reducing the quality of the population.Therefore,exploring etiology,mechanisms and control methods of WM injury in infants with CHD becomes a hot topic in recent years,and it may also become an important direction for future research,aiming to the significant improvements in CHD children with neurodevelopmental damages.

Cryptococcus neoformans(CN) is a kind of opportunistic fungal pathogen which has a predilection for the central nervous system,resulting in devastating meningitis.The management of cryptococcal meningitis remains challenging because of its high mortality,the toxicity and uncertainty effect of antifungal therapy.In recent years,the study of the mechanism of neurotropism of CN has made a great progress.Many violence factors of this pathogen and several signal pathways of the host involved in this process have been discovered.Combination therapy with immunotherapy to regular antifungal treatment has become an important adjuvant method.The present review will concisely present current progress of pathogenesis and immunotherapy of cryptococcal meningitis.

AIM: To study the effects of chromium rutin synthesized with rutin and chromium (Ⅲ) on metabolism of blood lipid. METHODS: The effects of chromium rutin on metabolism of blood lipid were evaluated by the changes of triglyceride, cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and LDL cholesterol in normal rats and the rats with high blood lipid. RESULTS: Chromium rutin could increase the blood chromium, decrease the concentrations of triglyceride, cholesterlo and LDL cholestelol,and increase the concentration of HDL cholesterol in normal and the rats with high blood lipid rats. CONCLUSION: Chromium rutin has an effect on the blood lipid in rats.

Objective To evaluate the value of Binax NOW pneumococcal antigen test for rapid diagnosis in patients with purulent meningitis.Methods Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were collected prospectively from 86 children who were diagnosed with purulent meningitis in the Department of Infectious Diseases at Beijing Children′s Hospital from March 2013 to March 2014 and were tested by Binax NOW method.CSF culture was considered as golden standard to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the Binax NOW method.Continuous variables were compared with t test, categorical variables were compared with χ2 test.Results Among 86 cases of purulent meningitis, 34 (39.5%) had positive culture and 21 (24.4%) were Streptococcus pneumonia, while 31 (36.0%) were positive by Binax NOW test.Using CSF culture as golden standard, the sensitivity and specificity of Binax NOW for diagnosis of pneumococcal meningitis were 90.5% (19/21) and 81.5% (53/65), respectively.Conclusion Binax NOW pneumoniae antigen test in CSF yields high sensitivity and specificity, which is useful in clinical application and enables prompt and adequate treatment.

With the improvement of people's living standard and changes of their lifestyle, the incidence of coronary artery disease (CAD) has increased quite significantly, which has attracted great concern. Examination methods for CAD are more and more advanced, while the cost of inspection is rising. As a traditional test, the exercise treadmill test (ETT) is convenient, safe, and cheap. ETT can be conducted in almost every hospital as it doesn't need advanced equipments. The values of some new evaluation indexes for diagnosis and prognosis of CAD are reviewed in this article.

[Objective] To evaluate the curative effect of Yangyin Huayu Decoction on Chronic Obstructive Disease of Lung(CODL), its influence on blood rheology. [Method] Administer Yangyin Huayu Decoction to treatment group besides basic treatment, only basic therapy for control group. [Result] The clinical sign relieving was better in treatment group than control in marked statistical meaning, the former could also markedly improve the blood rheological indexes of whole blood mucosity, blood sedimentation square K value and packed cell volume, which was different from that of control group, in obvious statistical meaning(P

Objective To investigate the relationship between human albumin stimulation and MCP-1 production of human renal tubular epithelial cells. Methods Thirteen patients with minimal change disease (MCD) were enrolled into the study. MCP-1 expression and M? infiltration in renal biopsy tissues were studied by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and in situ hybridization (ISH). In vitro experiment, proximal tubular epithelial HK-2 cells were stimulated by human serum albumin in different concentration, then MCP-1 production was detected by Western Blot. Results In renal tissues of MCD, focal positive MCP-1 was found in tubular walls and a few M infiltrated in every area including tubular walls , meanwhile a correlation of M? infiltration between interstitium and tubular lumen was studied. In cell culture experiment, with its concentration more than 2 g/L. human serum albumin could stimulate HK-2 cells to produce MCP-1. Conclusions MCP-1 expresses in the tubules of MCD patients with massive proteinuria. A few M?infiltrate in the renal tissue and move between the interstitium and the lumen of tubules. Human serum albumin can stimulate human tubular epithelial cells to produce MCP-1.

The striatum is involved in diverse behaviors which depend on intact dopaminergic innervation. Recent electrophysiological studies have revealed that dopamine alters both voltage dependent conductances and synaptic transmission, resulting in state dependent modulation of target cells. This review makes clear predictions about how dopamine should alter the responsiveness of striatal neurons to extrinsic excitatory synaptic activity.
