Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of needle knife, Governor-Vessel moxibustion plus medication in treating ankylosing spondylitis (AS).Method Forty AS patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 20 cases in each group. The control group was intervened by intravenous administration of Ossotide injection, while the treatment group was by needle knife and Governor-Vessel moxibustion in addition to Ossotide injection. Before and after the intervention, the symptoms and body signs, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI) were observed in the two groups, and the clinical efficacies were compared between the two groups.Result The total effective rate was 90.0% in the treatment group versus 75.0% in the control group, and the between-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). After the intervention, the symptoms and body signs (spinal pain score, Schober test, morning stiffness duration, chest expansion degree, and occiput-wall distance) were changed significantly in both groups (P<0.05). The BASDAI and BASFI scores were significantly changed after the intervention in both groups (P<0.05). The BASDAI and BASFI scores in the treatment group were significantly different from those in the control group after the intervention (P<0.05).Conclusion Needle knife plus Governor-Vessel moxibustion and medication is an effective approach in treating AS.

To investigate the interrelationship between plasma renin activity(PRAXaldosterone (Ald),atrial natri-uretic peptide ( ANP ) and blood volume ( BV ) in adult nephrotic syndrome ( NS ) . Methods BV was assessed using 113mInCl dilution method. PRA、 Angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ)、Ald、ANP were determined by radioirnmunoassay. 28 edema-tous NS patients,26 healthy controls and 18 cases of remission were involved. Results (1)During edematous period, PR, AngⅡ , Ald、 ANP were higher in NS than in controls. There was no difference of BV between NS and controls. Albumin ,PRA,AngⅡ 、Ald and ANP were not correlated with BV; (2)After remission, comparing with edematous period, Ald 、ANP deceased significantly whereas PRA、AngⅡ、Ald and total BV were not different; (3) Urine natrium excretion (UNaV) was negatively correlated with Aid. Conclusion Ald and ANP may be the major regulating factors of sodium excretion in nephrotic syndrome.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the effect of dietary intervention on blood glucose during intestinal preparation for colonoscopy.Methods:Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the effects of different interventions on blood glucose during bowel preparation in colonoscopy patients were retrieved on PubMed, CNKI, and WanFang, and RevMan 5.3 software was applied for meta-analysis based on the intervention groups.Results:A total of 10 RCTs in 8 papers, including 3 345 patients, 1 603 patients in the control group and 1 742 patients in the intervention group, were reviewed. Meta-analysis results showed that 10 studies reported incidence of hypoglycemia and interventions during intestinal preparation, and heterogeneity among researches was statistical ( P<0.000 01, I2=80%). Under random effects model combined with effect quantity, compared with the control group, dietary intervention could significantly reduce the incidence of hypoglycemia during bowel preparation, the difference was significant ( OR=0.19, 95% CI: 0.09-0.40, P<0.05). Conclusion:Dietary intervention during intestinal preparation for colonoscopy can prevent the occurrence of hypoglycemia and avoid relative adverse reactions and parasympathetic nerve activity. However, due to the limited number and quality of included researches, the above conclusion need to be verified by more high-quality RCTs.

Exosome is a self-secreted phospholipid bilayer nanovesicles, and has shown great potential in drug delivery field due to the important advantages of low immunogenicity and homologous targeting. Phototherapy, mainly includes photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), utilize light to activate photoactive drug for tumor cell killing. The advanced therapeutic strategy shows low toxic side-effect and non-invasion precise advantages, and thus has made great progress in tumor treatment over the past few years. Therefore, using exosomes as a drug delivery system to deliver phototherapeutic agents can improve therapeutic performances with a reduced side-effect, and further enhance their application potential for clinical tumor therapy. This review focus on the rising cross-subjects field involving exosomes and phototherapy, and mainly introduce the research progress and relative case of exosomes-based delivery system for cancer phototherapy. Additionally, the advantages and challenges of exosome-based phototherapy are also discussed and proposed.

Objective To evaluate the effects of propofol on apoptosis in the hippocampal neurons of fetal rats in vitro.Methods The isolated hippocampal neurons were seeded into 96-well plates or 24-well plates at a density of 5 × 104 cells/ml.The cells were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =18 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),in tralipid group (group Ⅰ) and propofol 1,10,100 μmol/L groups (P1-3 groups).In group Ⅰ,10% intralipid was added to the culture media until the final concentration reached 100 μmol/L.In groups P1-3,propofol was added to the culture media until the final concentration reached 1,10 and 100 μmol/L,respectively,and the cells were then incubated for 3 h.The cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry.The expression of Bcl-2 mRNA and caspase-3 mRNA was detected by semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).The expression of Bcl-2 and actived-caspase-3 protein was determined by Western blot analysis.The apoptosis rate was calculated.Results Compared with group C,the apoptosis rate was significantly increased,the expression of Bcl-2 mRNA and protein was down-regulated,and the expression of caspase-3 mRNA and actived-caspase-3 protein was up-regulated in P1-3 groups (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in the parameters mentioned above between group Ⅰ and group C (P > 0.05).Conclusion Propofol induces apoptosis in isolated hippocampal neurons by inhibiting Bcl-2 expression and enhancing caspase-3 activity in fetal rats.

Objective: To explore influence of exercise on cardiac autonomic nerve function in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and its clinical significance. Methods: A total of 53 patients with coronary heart disease undergoing CABG were randomly divided into routine treatment group (n=25) and rehabilitation group (n=28, received exercise training based on routine treatment). Changes of autonomic nerve function before, second and eighth week after CABG were analyzed in two groups using time domain indexes of heart rate variability (HRV) by ambulatory electrocardiography, including standard deviation of normal to normal RR intervals calculated over the 24 h period (SDNN), standard deviation of normal to normal RR intervals in all 5 min segments of the entire recording (SDANN), root-mean square of differences between successive normal to normal intervals (rMSSD) and adjacent normal RR interval difference > 50ms stroke accounted for a percentage of 24h total RR interval (PNN50). Results: Compared with before CABG, there were significant decrease in SDNN, SDANN, RMSSD and PNN50 in both groups two weeks after CABG (P<0.05~0.01); eight weeks after CABG, above indexes recovered to levels before CABG in routine treatment group[SDNN (113.6±29.4)vs.(116.7±24.7), SDANN(112.2±32.1)vs.(113.6±28.6), rMSSD(21.9±8.2) vs.(23.2±7.1), and PNN50 (7.5±4.2)vs.(8.2±3.7)] , P>0.05 all; Compared with before CABG, there were significant improvements in SDNN [(114.7±25.2) ms vs. (132.6±30.6) ms], SDANN [(111.6±23.5) ms vs. (129.2±30.8) ms], rMSSD [(24.2±8.7) ms vs. (29.9±7.5) ms] and PNN50 [(7.8±2.2) ms vs. (9.5±2.3) ms], and there were significant improvement than those of routine treatment group [SDNN (132.6±30.6)vs.(113.6±29.4), SDANN(129.2±30.8)vs.(112.2±32.1), rMSSD(29.9±7.5)vs.(21.9±8.2)and PNN50 (9.5±2.3)vs.(7.5±4.2)] eight weeks after CABG in rehabilitation group, P<0.05 all. Conclusion: All HRV indexes significantly decrease on two weeks after CABG in both groups, suggesting that CABG can damage cardiac autonomic nerve system. These indexes of rehabilitation group were more improvement than those of routine treatment group, suggesting exercise training can more significantly improve cardiac autonomic nerve function after CABG.
