Objective To explore the moisture absorption and related components of aqueous extract of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma. Methods The hygroscopicity of aqueous extract of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma and its water and alcohol elution parts separated by macroporous resin was measured, and the contained low molecular sugars (monosaccharides, oligosaccharide), polysaccharide, protein, amino acid, tannins and salvianolic acid B, etc. were analyzed. Results D101 macroporous resin was used for separation and purification of aqueous extract of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma. The hygroscopicity of water elution parts was enhanced;carbohydrate, protein and other hydrophilic substances content increased; the content of salvianolic acid B was reduced to 1.76 mg/g. While the hygroscopicity and hydrophilic substances of alcohol elution parts were greatly reduced; the content of salvianolic acid B increased to 146.57 mg/g. Conclusion The hygroscopicity of aqueous extract of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizomais closely related to the contained strong hydrophilic components, such as low molecular sugars, etc. Using D101 macroporous resin to purify aqueous extract of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma can not only effectively gather the contain phenolic acids active ingredients, but also sharply decrease the extract yield and extract moisture absorption.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of moxa smoke versus tobaccosmoke on autonomous behaviors and hippocampal expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in apolipoprotein E gene knockout (ApoE-/-) mice.Method Thirteen 8-week-old C57BL/6 mice constituted a blank control group. Twenty-seven ApoE-/-mice of the same age were randomized into ApoE-/-model, moxa smoke and tobacco smoke groups. The tobacco smoke and moxa smoke groups of mice were exposed to smoke 5-15 mg/m3circumstances. Every group of mice was intervened in 20 min. daily, six days a week, for atotal of 12 weeks. A behavioral test was conducted in week 13. The animals were then sacrificed to take the materials. Hippocampal GFAP in the brain was measured by an immunohistochemical method.ResultAutonomous activities were significantly more in theblank group than in the model group (P<0.05) and significantly fewer in the tobacco smoke group than in the blank group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in autonomous activities between the tobacco smoke group and the model or moxa smoke group (P>0.05). Moving distance was longer in the moxa smoke group than in the model group (P<0.05). Standing-up number was smaller in the moxa smoke group than in the blank group (P<0.05). Integral optical density of GFAP immune reaction products in the hippocampus was significantlyhigher in the model group of mice than in the blank and moxa smoke groups (P<0.05). Hippocampal GFAP expression was significantly higher in the group of mice than in the moxa smoke and blank groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Moxa smoke can increase the excitability of central nervous system in mice and reduce hippocampal GFAP expression in a mice model of Alzheimer disease.

Objective To report the combined Aspergillus and Mucor infections in surgical site after orthotopic liver transplantation. Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of two liver transplantation recipients suffering from postoperative combined Aspergillus and Mucor infections and evaluate the symptoms, diagnosis and treatment. Results In the first patient the graft arteries suddenly ruptured on the 8th day postop caused by Aspergillus and Mucor infection failing an emergency surgical rescue. The patient eventually died of multiple organ failure. In the second recipient deep surgical site infection was diagnosed on the 10th day postop. Combination infection of Aspergillus and Mucor was identified by pathology. Despite of aggressive anti-fungal treatment and support, the general condition continued to deteriorate and the patient eventually died of systemic severe infection and respiratory failure. Conclusion Combined Aspergillus and Mucor infections in operative location is a rare complication of liver transplantation, which was usually occult in onset, and the prognosis is poor.

Objective To study the risk factors of mortality in severe sepsis and septic shock patients. Methods 142 patients with severe sepsis and septic shock in ICU were observed and divided into alive group (98 patients)and dead group (44 patients)by using hospital mortality.The risk factors of mortality in severe sepsis and septic shock patients were assessed by binary logistic regression.Results Independent mortality risk factors were inotropic agents (OR =4.329,95%CI:1.045 -17.937,P =0.043),blood glucose >10 mmol/L (OR =3.771,95%CI:1.214 -11.710,P =0.022)and APACHE Ⅱ score (OR =3.098,95%CI:2.012 -4.760,P =0.000),while PaO2 /FiO2 after early goal -directed therapy (EGDT)was protective factor (OR =0.682,95%CI:0.500 -0.930, P =0.016).Conclusion Severe sepsis and septic shock patients with inotropic agents,blood glucose >10mmol/L, high APACHE Ⅱ score and decreased PaO2 /FiO2 after EGDT indicate poorly prognosis.

'Social beings' model of standardized training program for residents in Shanghai is one of the important measures in the health care reform. According to the requirements of the standardized training of residents in thoracic surgery, the article preliminarily explored the standardized training model for residents from four aspects such as individualized treatment of different professional backgrounds, focus-ing on the training needs of residents with different starting point of social beings, developing training programs for different training time and combining the master's degree graduate education. And based on the characteristics of thoracic surgery, it also summed up the past experience and explored the clinical practice teaching.

The nitrite-reducing activity of aerobic denitrifying bacterial strain N6-1 was studied. It showed that the nitrite-reducing activity reached the highest at 30℃, 120 r/min, pH 8.5 and C/N ratio 12, using CH3COONa and NaNO2 as the sole carbon source and nitrogen source, respectively. When the initial NaNO2 concentration was 2 g/L, NO2--N was reduced completely after 20 hours cultivation with the reducing rate of 20.3 mg/L?h. There would be no effect on its nitrite-reducing activity in the present of 1.5% NaCl or 1% peptone. The cell concentration could reach 1.2?1011 CFU/mL after 24 hours cultivation in 10 L fermentor.

Emerging data indicated that HCV subverts the antiviral activity of interferon (IF); however,whether HCV core protein contributes to the process remains controversial. In the present study, we examined the effect of HCV core protein on interferon-induced antiviral gene expression and whether the effect is involved in the activation and negative regulation of the Jak/STAT signaling pathway. Our results showed that, following treatment with IFN-α, the transcription of PKR, MxA and 2'-5'OAS were down-regulated in HepG2 cells expressing the core protein. In the presence of HCV core protein,ISRE-dependent luciferase activity also decreased. Further study indicated that the core protein could inhibit the tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT1, whereas the level of STAT1 expression was unchanged.Accordingly, SOCS3, the negative regulator of the Jak/STAT pathway, was induced by HCV core protein. These results suggests that HCV core protein may interfere with the expression of some interferon-induced antiviral genes by inhibiting STAT1 phosphorylation and induction of SOCS3.

OBJECTIVETo study the content of mineral elements and the principal components in Gastrodia elata.
METHODMineral elements were determined by ICP and the data was analyzed by SPSS.
RESULTK element has the highest content-and the average content was 15.31 g x kg(-1). The average content of N element was 8.99 g x kg(-1), followed by K element. The coefficient of variation of K and N was small, but the Mn was the biggest with 51.39%. The highly significant positive correlation was found among N, P and K . Three principal components were selected by principal components analysis to evaluate the quality of G. elata. P, B, N, K, Cu, Mn, Fe and Mg were the characteristic elements of G. elata.
CONCLUSIONThe content of K and N elements was higher and relatively stable. The variation of Mn content was biggest. The quality of G. elata in Guizhou and Yunnan was better from the perspective of mineral elements.
