Objective To explore the mechanism action of Shoutai Pill in the embryo from the molecular level. Methods The model of normal pregnancy was established with the model of recurrent abortion CBA/J ×DBA/2. The recurrent abortion model CBA/J×DBA/2 in pregnant mice were randomly divided into model group, high-, medium-, low-dose group of Shoutai Pill. From the first day of gestation, mice were given medicine by gavage for 14 d, and then sacrificed. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect differences in protein HSP27,α-enolase, transferrin, annexin A2 protein expression. Results Compared with normal group, decidual HSP27 and α-enolase expression of model group increased significantly, the expression of transferrin and annexin A2 was significantly decreased, with significant differences (P<0.01). Compared with model group, decidual HSP27 andα-enolase expression of Shoutai Pill high and low dose group decreased, annexin A2 expression was increased. Compared with model group, expression of decidual transferrin of Shoutai Pill high dose group increased, with significant differences (P<0.01), decidual transferrin expression of Shoutai Pill medium and low dose group had no significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusion Through the protein expression, Shoutai Pill achieves the maintenance of pregnancy, reducing the rate of embryo resorption, which may be one of the mechanisms of Shoutai Pill preventing miscarriage effect.

Objective To explore the effect of glutamine on immune function of rat with obstructive jaundice and its possible mechanism. Methods Fifty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups: Control group (n=10), obstructive jaundice group (n=20) and glutamine treatment group (n=20). The serum concentration of TNF-?, IL-10 was detected by using radioimmune method. Liver function was measured through automated biochemistry analyzer. The animal model of obstructive jaundice was established by ligating the rat's common bile duct. Bacteria cultures were performed with the rat's tissues of lung, spleen, liver and kidney respectively. Resu- lts Compared with control group, obstructive jaundice group showed statistically lower serum level of TNF-?, and statistically higher serum level of IL-10, TBIL, ALT and AST during the first and the second week after ligation of common bile duct. During the first and second week after administration of glutamine, the serum TNF-? of glutamine treatment group was statistically higher than that in control group and obstructive jaundice group. Meanwhile, glutamine treatment group showed statistically lower serum level of IL-10, TBIL, ALT and AST than obstructive jaundice group. There were statistically less bacteria translocations in glutamine treatment group than those in obstructive jaundice group. Conclusion Glutamine can increase the immune function by changing serum concentration of TNF-?, IL-10 and decrease the bacteria translocation.

Tianjin Medical Journal 2017;45(3):301-305
Objective To investigate the incidence and its related factors of apathy in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods A total of 100 consecutive cases of ischemic stroke patients and 50 health controls were recruited in the present study. Apathy was assessed using modified apathy evaluation scale (MAES). According to the MAES score, acute ischemic stroke patients were divided into apathy group (MAES was more than 14 points) and non-apathy group. The differences of general information, clinical data, national institutes of health stroke scale (NIHSS), Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), Hamilton depression scale (HAMD), modified rankin scale (mRS) and the lesion location were compared between the two groups. Differences that showed statistical significance (P<0.05) went into the multi-factor analysis. The Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the influence factors of apathy. Results There were 34 cases of apathy in patient group (34.00%), which was significantly higher than those of control group (3 cases of apathy, 6.00%, P<0.001). The age, incidence of diabetes, NIHSS score, HAMD score, lesions in brain stem and multiple lesions were significantly higher in apathy group than that of non-apathy group, while educational level, MoCA score were significantly lower ( P<0.05). The Logistic regression analysis showed that the higher MoCA score was a protective factor for apathy, while higher NIHSS score, lesions in brain stem and multiple lesions were risk factors for the incidence apathy. Conclusion The cognitive impairment, severity of neurological deficits, brainstem lesions and multiple lesions may be the risk factors of apathy after the occurrence of acute ischemic stroke.
