AIM and METHODS:To study the effect of Nao-xue-bao at three different doses on blood coagulation，platelet aggregation by observing the changes in activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), antithrombin-Ⅲ(AT-III), fibrinogen(Fng), plasminogen(Plg) and platelet aggregation(PAG). RESULTS:Compared with thrombosis group, the rats treated with Naoxuebao showed that the plasma APTT,PT were longer, and the activity of AT-III was increased. The content of Fng was reduced, TT was longer, there was a negative correlation between Fng and TT. Furthermore PAG-1, PAG-5 and PAG-M were reduced. CONCLUSION:Nao-xue-bao could inhibit thrombosis in different keys of blood coagulation.

Objective　To investigate the expression of LPS receptor-CD14(CD14) on the membrane of Kupffer′s cells (KCs) induced by Lipopolysaccharide (LPS )and its role in activation of KCs and production of cytokines. Methods　KCs were isolated by collagenase perfused Wistar rats and routinely cultured in 24-well dishes for 12 h. Cells were harvested and adjusted to a concentration of 1×106/ml/well and were devided into two groups. Group of LPS: KCs were induced with different concentration of LPS (0, 100 ng/ml, 1 μg/ml and 100 μg/ml). Group of PI-PLC: KCs were pre-incubated for 30 min with one unit of phophatidy linositol specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) before different concentrations of LPS were added. KCs were cultured for 30 and 60 min respectively. Supernatants were then collected for measuring the level of TNFα and IL-6. Cells were stained by indirect immunofluorescent method ( rabbit anti-CD14 antibody and goat anti-rabbit IgG conjugated with FITC ) and analyzed with flow cytometer (FCM). The percentage and mean fluorescence intensity (FI) of CD14-positive cells were taken as the indexes. Results　In LPS group, after incubation of cells with increasing concentration of LPS, a significant increase in the percentage of CD14 positive KCs were found and the mean FI was stronger when compared with the control points or the group of PI-PLC. The levels of TNFα and IL-6 in supernatant also increased (P<0.01). In group of PI-PLC, decreased percentage of CD14 positive KCs and weakened mean FI were found when compared with group of LPS. The increasing production of TNFα and IL-6 slowed down in the group of PI-PLC. Conclusion　CD14 expression of KCs might be up-regulated by LPS with increase of some cytokines. The production of cytokines in KCs induced by LPS is partially inhibited by PI-PLC.

Objective:To observe the thrombolytic effect of Naoxuebao in vitro and in vivo.Methods:The changes of thrombus in the carotid arterial,plasma fibrinogen (FIB),thrombin time (TT) and the diameter of blood clot were observed using Naoxuebao (three dose groups) after thrombosis.Results:With Naoxuebao,the time of blood clot was longer,the diameter of blood clot was shortened;carotid arterial thrombosis was dissolved.The contents of FIB decreased,TT was longer,and FIB and TT had negative correlation;whereas,PLG had no obious change.Conclusion:Naoxuebao had thrombolytic effect,but the effect had no relation with plasmin activating.

Objective To improve the understanding of the epidemiology,clinical features,diagnosis and treatment of Tsutsugamushi disease,and reduce the misdiagnosis rate.Methods The clinical data of 56 cases of Tsutsugamushi disease misdiagnosed were analyzed retrospectively.Results 28 cases were misdiagnosed as acute upper respiratory tract infection(50.0%),3 cases were malaria(5.4%),1 case was cholecystitis(1.8%),24 cases were infectious fever(42.8%).The average misdiagnosed time:10.3days.55 patients were found Eschar or ulcer (98.2%),54 cases were found Eschar or ulcer on one part of body,1 case was found two eschars.54 cases had been effectively treated,50 cases were treated with chloramphenicol,4 cases with azithromycin.The average time of temper-ature that dropped to normal were respectively:1.3d,1d.Conclusion awareness of Tsutsugamushi disease should be raised,history seriously should be inquired and specific signs should be identified,which can degrade the misdiagnosis rate and reduce the mortality rate.
