This paper presents a preliminary study of rabbit experiment modality incorporating a new indicator for evaluating cardiac function changes, providing a basis for subsequent study of cardiac fatigue. Using only biochemical indicators, such as troponins, is difficult to make a distinction between exercise-induced cardiac fatigue (EICF) and exercise-induced cardiac damage (EICD). Therefore, some new indicators are needed to evaluate cardiac fatigue synthetically. In our study, we used New Zealand white rabbits to conduct a multi-step swimming experiments with load. We made the rabbits reach an exhaustive state to evaluate whether the amplitude ratio of the first to second heart sound (S1/S2) and heart rate (HR) during the exhaustive exercise would be decreased and whether they would be able to recover after the exhaustive exercise for 24 hours. During the first phase of swimming, S1/S2 and HR were increased, and then decreased at exhaustive state. They were recovered after the exhaustive exercise for 24 hours. Overloading led to deaths of three rabbis, and new phenomena from overloading and related to this kind of death were observed. The experiments proved that Multi-steps swimming experiments with loads by using New Zealand white rabbit is useful for studying cardiac fatigue and premonition of sudden cardiac death.

OBJECTIVETo observe the herbal effects on hyperthyroidism patients with syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-Yang by method for calming the liver and suppressing Yang and investigate its effects on the lymphocyte protein expression. This approach may lay a foundation for the further investigation of the curative mechanisms of calming the liver and suppressing Yang treatment.

METHODA total of 48 hyperthyroidism patients with syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-Yang were randomly divided into treatment group and control group. The treatment group was treated by method for calming the liver and suppressing Yang in accordance with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and the control group with thiamazole tablets for three periods of treatment The therapeutic effects, the score of TCM symptom, electrocardiogram (P wave), thyroid hormones and ultrasound were observed in both groups before and after the treatment. The side effects in the treatment course were observed in both groups. The level of differential protein expression was analyzed by two-dimensional electrphoresis and matrix assisted laser desorption/ionizaton time-of-flight mass spectrometry.

RESULTThe treatment group has the effect on stepping down the heart rate, cutting down the P wave amplitude changes, regulating the level of thyroid hormones and decreasing the volume of thyromegaly. There are not statistically significant between the treatment group and control group. However, the treatment group has obviously better effect on regulating TCM symptom and decreasing the side reaction than the control group (P<0.05). There are not statistically significant on the total effective between the treatment group and control group. The average spots in lymphocyte for normal people, before and after treating hyperthyroidism patients with syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-Yang were (429 +/- 31), (452 +/- 28) and (437 +/- 36) spots respectively. Eight down-regulated protein expressions and 11 up-regulated protein expressions were obtained in the hyperthyroidism patients with syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-Yang and normal people. Five strengthened expressions of protein were also obtained in 8 down-regulated expressions of protein and 8 lower expressions of protein in 11 up-regulated expressions of protein before and after treating the migraine patients with syndrome of hyperactivity of liver-Yang. Ten of the total 8 differential protein spots were successfully identified by MALDI-TOF-MS. The functions of these proteins were involved in metabolism associated, transportation, antioxidation, sigal transduction and immume associated protein, etc. according to information provided by NCBI and MSDB database.

CONCLUSIONIn this study, the TCM complex prescription with herbs for calming the liver and suppressing Yang can regulate the thyroid hormones, improves TCM symptoms, and decrease the adverse reaction. It can possibly regulate lymphocyte protein expression.

Objective To explore a simplified method of coagulation test for the individuals with erythrocytosis. Methods The antico-agulants, blood volume and fixed blood collecting volume were adjusted by the formula: anticoagulants (mL)＝(100－HCT×100)× blood (mL)×0.001 85. A total of 124 blood samples for coagulation testing in which the calcium ( Ca2+) interval was designated and hematocrit (HCT) was more than 55% were tested with calibrated anticoagulants, adjusted blood volume and fixed blood collection vol-ume [anticoagulant(mL)/0.055 5]. The results of plasma prothrombin time (PT), international standardization ratio (INR) and acti-vated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) before and after adjustment were compared. The results of the samples from 3 groups after adjustment were also compared. The relationship of HCT with unadjusted PT and APTT were simultaneously observed. Results The unadjusted results of PT, INR and APTT were significantly higher than those after anticoagulants adjustment (27.52±16.37 vs 12.49± 1.35, 2.31±1.47 vs 0.99±0.11 and 50.09±13.32 vs 33.37±5.05) with statistically significant difference in paired comparison (P＜0.05). No statistical difference was found in the comparison of the results for PT, INR and APTT after adjustment within the 3 groups ( PT: 12.49±1.35 vs 12.84±1.54 vs 12.82±1.76, INR:0.99±0.11 vs 1.02±0.13 vs 1.02±0.15, APTT: 33.37±5.05 vs 33.49±5.09 vs 32.83±5.06) (P＞0.05). HCT values of the patients were positively correlated with unadjusted PT (r＝0.461, P＜0.05) and APTT (r＝0.571, P＜0.05). Conclusion The coagulation test of the individuals with erythrocytosis may use to adjust the blood volume and the fixed blood collection volume provided calcium concentration in reference interval.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect Pinggan Qianyang recipe on expression of Tpx, HSP27 and ANXA1 in the hypothalamus of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) with the hyperactivity of liver-YANG syndrome. METHODS: A total of 30 SHRs were subjected to administration of Aconiti Praeparatae Decoction to establish the model of SHR with liver-YANG hyperactivity first, then they were randomly divided into three groups: the control group, the model group and the treatment group (n=10 per group). A total of 10 SD rats were served as the normal group. The rats in control group and treatment group were given Enalapril plus Pinggan Qianyang recipe for four weeks. The change of behavior and blood pressure of rats were monitored. RT-PCR and Western-blot were performed to detect the expression of Tpx II, HSP27 and ANXA1 mRNA and protein in the hypothalamus, respectively. RESULTS: Compared with the normal SD rats, the heart rate, blood pressure and grade of irritability were significantly increased while rotation endurance time was dramatically reduced in the SHR model with liver-YANG hyperactivity (P<0.01), these changes were reversed by the application of Enalapril plus Pinggan Qianyang recipe. Compared with the normal SD rats, the protein and mRNA expression of Tpx II and ANXA1 in the model group were significantly upregulated (P<0.01) while the HSP27 was significantly downregulated (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the protein and mRNA expression of Tpx II and ANXA1 in the control group or treatment group were significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01) while HSP27 was significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the expression of Tpx II and ANXA1 protein in treatment group were significantly reduced (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSION Pinggan Qianyang recipe can improve the blood pressure and behavior in SHRs with hyperactivity of Liver-YANG syndrome, which might be related to the regulation of Tpx, HSP27 and ANXA1 expression in hypothalamuses.
