Objective:To study the curative effect of hydrotalcite combined with omeprazole in the treatment of gastric ulcer with gastric bleeding. Methods:Seventy-six patients with gastric ulcer and bleeding in the stomach were selected and randomly divided into two groups. Thirty-two patients in the control group were treated with omeprazole alone while 44 patients in the observation group were treated with hydrotalcite combined with omeprazole. The therapeutic effects were compared between the two groups. Results:The total effective rate in the observation group was 100% while that was 87. 5% in the control group,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0. 05). The comprehensive score of symptoms of the patients in the observation group was(4. 2 ± 1. 2)while that was(6. 2 ± 1. 4)in the control group,and the difference was significant(P<0. 01). The abdominal pain,abdominal distention and belching remission time in the observation group were slightly shorter than those in the control group(P<0. 05)and the time of hematemesis and hemafecia remission was significantly shorter than that in the control group(P<0. 05). After the 3-month treatment,the re-bleeding rate in the observation group was 6. 82%,which was slightly better than that in the control group,and the difference had no statistical significance(P<0. 05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 9. 09% while that was 6. 25% in the control group,and there was no significant difference between the two groups(P>0. 05). Conclusion:Hydro-talcite combined with omeprazole in the treatment of gastric ulcer with gastric bleeding is effective and safe.

The method of preparation of a Milk Substitute, formula 5410, and its nutritive value on rats have been reported in previous communications. Further tests of its nutritive effect were made by feeding a group of 100 infants including 4 premature and 10 undernourished. Another group of 43 infants fed with human breast milk or cow's milk were observed during the same period as controls. Among the infants of the two groups there were 6 pairs of twins; one of each pair was fed with the Milk Substitute and the other with human or cow's milk. Great majority of the infants were cared by their own mothers whose cooperation had been secured, while the rest of the infants (10%) were kept in our nursery.The Milk Substitute feeding was started with infants between half and six months of age, with an average age of three months. Observations were continued until they all reached one year old. Fish liver oil and ascorbic acid were supplied to infants of both the experimental and the control groups. Vegetable soup and fruit juice were given to the infants before five months of age. Then various kinds of other foods, including rice porridge, wheat flour nudols, bread, crackers, mashed meat and vegetable and egg yolk were individually supplemented furnishing not more than 1/3 of the total caloric intake, (at the age of one year), as the family income permitted.The appetite of the experimental infants was normal. There was no digestive disturbances and abnormal frequency and appearance of the stool. The average daily caloric intake was similar to those recorded in the literature.The body weight and height of the babies in the experimental group fell well within the normal range. The average initial body weight and height of the infants in the experimental group were somewhat lower than those of the control; however, the height reached .that of the control at the age of 7 months, and the weight at about 11 months. The red blood cell counts and the hemoglobin value of the blood were normal.Values of blood alkaline phosphatase activity higher than 15 Bodansky units were shown in 20 babies of the experimental group (27%) and 8 babies of the control group (23%) at the beginning of the observation; only 4 babies in the experimental group were found abnormal high blood alkaline phosphatase value at the end. At the beginning, 3 cases of rickets and 3 cases of suspected rickets were indicated by the radiograph of the wrist bones of the babies in the experimental group, and only one suspected ricket in the control group were observed; and they all became normal at the end of the experiment. Besides, there were no other signs of any nutritional deficiency among all the infants.

Objective To investigate the effects of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) on renal cell apoptosis in rats with diabetic nephropathy(DN). Methods Totally 55 male Wistar rats were intraperitoneally injected with streptozotocin (STZ) to develop DN model.46 successfully established DN rat models were randomly divided into 4 groups:PGE1 group received PGE1 intravenously at dose of 10 μg · kg-1 · d-1 for 10 d (n=12),angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors(ACEI) group given ACEI orally at dose of 10 mg kg-1·d-1 for 8 W(n=12),PGE1+ACEI group given both PGE1 and ACEI (n=11),DN control group(n=11) and normal control group(n=10) given saline only.All rats were killed after 8 weeks and blood samples or kidney tissue were collected.Blood urea nitrogen (BUN),serum creatine(Scr),albuminuria of 24 h were detected.Renal pathological morphology and apoptosis of renal cells were observed by HE staining and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end-labeling (TUNEL) test. Results At 8 week after treatment,the 24-hour urinary albumin levels were decreased significantly in the following order:DN control group> PGE1 group > ACEI group >PGE1+ ACEI group> control group[(374.6±54.1)μg,(570.0±72.5)μg,(253.1±28.9)μg vs.(1123.4±106.2)μg,P<0.01 or P<0.05].BUN[(9.3±2.6)mmol/L,(11.0±3.5)mmol/L,(8.4±2.2)mmol/Lvs.(15.1±4.0)mmol/L]and Scr [(74.5±19.2) umol/L,(83.5± 15.8)μmol/L,(64.6±17.3) μmol/L vs.(117.7±33.0)μmol/L]levels after treatment were also reduced in PGE1,ACEI and PGE1 + ACEI groups as compared with DN control group (P<0.01or P< 0.05). Pathological manifestations of all treatment groups showed better results than DN group,and PGE1 + ACEI group was the best.There was no obvious apoptosis in glomerular area with on significant differences between groups.While apoptosis of renal tubules was observed in DN rats. Conclusions Renal tubule but not glomerular cell apoptosis may play some role in Prostaglandin E1 reduciug albuminuria.
