Objective To observe clinical efficacy of Tianma Gouteng Decoction combined with Western medicine for early onset severe pre-eclampsia. Methods Sixty patients were randomly divided into treatment group with 30 cases and control group with 30 cases. Two groups were both given the routine Western therapy, while the treatment group was added with Tianma Gouteng Decoction. Indicators were observed and compared between two groups including blood pressure, 24 h UAE, D-dimer, fibrinogen and their effects on pregnancy. Results Compared with the control group, the blood pressure, 24 h UAE, fibrinogen, D-dimer, hypoproteinemia, and liver and kidney function were reduced obviously in the treatment group (P<0.05);fibrinogen and D-dimer of control group were not changed significantly;gestational weeks of treatment group were extended (15.2 ± 4.8)d, and neonatal asphyxia was 7 cases;gestational weeks of control group were extended (9.3 ± 2.2)d, and neonatal asphyxia was 11 cases. There was no significant difference about cesarean section rate between the two groups. Conclusion Tianma Gouteng Decoction combined with Western medicine for treatment of early onset severe pre-eclampsia have better clinical efficacy.

Professor OUYANG Hui-qing's gradually formed her own teaching concept of traditional Chinese medicine through long-term teaching practice:the most important teaching aim is to cultivate talents of traditional Chinese medicine.Clinical practice together with classroom teaching can promote the growing knowledge of medical students.Clinical practices are necessary and should penetrate culture and academic tradition of traditional Chinese medicine.OUYANG Hui-qing's concepts on talents are:cultivating teaching faculties is the key to the development of the teaching team,the core of construction of the teaching and research section,and the basis of construction of the discipline.OUYANG Hui-qing's management concepts are:the dean of the teaching and research section is the practitioner of personnel training practice and the undertaker of teaching team development.

【Objective】To observe the effect of Zhuyun Prescription Ⅲ(ZPⅢ),which is composed of kidney-tonifying and spleen-strengthening herbal medicine,on T lymphocyte antigen recognition receptors(TCR?&T) in luteal insufficiency abortion rats with deficiency of kidney.【Methods】Forty SD rats were equally randomized into 5 groups: blank control group,model group,high-and low-dose ZPⅢ groups(in the doses of 7.08 and 3.54 g?kg-1?d-1,respectively) and allylestrenol tablets(1.5 mg?kg-1?d-1) group.Luteal insufficiency abortion rats model with deficiency of kidney was established by hydroxyurea(450 mg?kg-1)and mifepristone(3.75 mg?kg-1).The uterus weight,the amount of embryo and the abortion rate were observed,and the peripheral blood levels of TCR?&T and CD3+T lymphocytes were detected with flow cytometer.【Results】The uterus weight and the amount of embryo were decreased,and the abortion rate was increased in the model group(P

[Objective] To evaluate the significance of plasma endothelin in tubal pregnancy (TP) and to observe the regulatory effect of kidney-reinforcing, blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing Chinese herbal medicine on endothelin (ET) level. [Methods] Plasma ET level and ET-positive rate were detected in 40 cases of TP, 20 of intrauterinc pregnancy (IP) and 20 of chronic pelvic inflammation (CPF) and the relationship between the two above indexes in the patients were analyzed. TP patients were randomized to three groups; group A (n = 15) was treated with No. 1 Yishen Huoxue Pills (6g, tid) and Penyankang mixture (25mL, tid) for two treatment courses; group B (n = 15) was treated with aspirin (257ng, qd) for two treatment courses; group C ( n - 10) was not given any medicines. [Results] ET-positive rate and plasma ET level in postoperative TP patients were higher than those in IP patients ( P .05) . Chinese herbal medicine could decrease ET-positive rate and plasma ET level in postoperative TP patients (P

The case is the cornerstone of case teaching. The construction of case database can support case teaching and its orderly development. The clinical cases of gynecology of Chinese medicine were collected, sorted and processed in combination with the teaching syllabus and teaching objective. Operating platform was based on the Excelltable. The column was divided into overview, menstrual disorders, leukorrhoeal diseases, pregnancy disease, postpartum disease and miscellaneous diseases of gynecology with hierarchical set of 15 modules per column, including basic information, complaints, history, symptoms, physical examination, diagnosis, application purpose and context and so on. And the corresponding search term was also selected. Cases can be divided into introduction cases and improvement ones according to their easiness and difficulty , into typical cases and atypical ones according to their feature types. Case database content also needs to be constantly revised by teaching activities to make it more suitable for clinical teaching.

Background/Aims:
The accuracy of endosonographers in diagnosing gastric subepithelial lesions (SELs) using endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is influenced by experience and subjectivity. Artificial intelligence (AI) has achieved remarkable development in this field. This study aimed to develop an AI-based EUS diagnostic model for the diagnosis of SELs, and evaluated its efficacy with external validation.
Methods:
We developed the EUS-AI model with ResNeSt50 using EUS images from two hospitals to predict the histopathology of the gastric SELs originating from muscularis propria. The diagnostic performance of the model was also validated using EUS images obtained from four other hospitals.
Results:
A total of 2,057 images from 367 patients (375 SELs) were chosen to build the models, and 914 images from 106 patients (108 SELs) were chosen for external validation. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of the model for differentiating gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and non-GISTs in the external validation sets by images were 82.01%, 68.22%, 86.77%, 59.86%, and 78.12%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy in the external validation set by tumors were 83.75%, 71.43%, 89.33%, 60.61%, and 80.56%, respectively. The EUS-AI model showed better performance (especially specificity) than some endosonographers.The model helped improve the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of certain endosonographers.
Conclusions
We developed an EUS-AI model to classify gastric SELs originating from muscularis propria into GISTs and non-GISTs with good accuracy. The model may help improve the diagnostic performance of endosonographers. Further work is required to develop a multi-modal EUS-AI system.
