[Objective]To investigate the effective method for allergic rhinitis.[Method]58 cases were randomly divided into 2 groups,treatment group 31 take self-made Yiqi Tuomin Decoction,other group 27 take cetirizine hydrochloride.[Result]In treatment group,16 cases had marked effect,12 had effect,3 had no effect,effective rate was 90.3%;for control one,they were 8,10,9 and 66.7%respectively.[Conclusion]Yiqi Tuomin Decoction has obvious effect on allergic rhinitis.

Objective To investigate the effects of puerarin on levels of thromboxane A 2 (TXA 2) and prostaglandin I 2 (PGI 2) in plasma of rats with hyperlipidemia. Methods A total of 48 Wistar juvenile rats were randomly divided into four groups: normal diet, high fat and high cholesterol diet (HFD), HFD supplemented respectively with 1 g/kg puerarin (puerarin group Ⅰ) or 2 g/kg puerarin (puerarin group Ⅱ). After eight weeks of feeding, the rats were sacrificed for detection of the levels of lipid, TXA 2, and PGI 2. Results The blood triglycerol, total cholesterol, LDL C, TXA 2, and TXA 2/PGI 2 were significantly lower in puetarin Ⅰ and puerarin Ⅱ groups than those in HFD group, but the concentration of HDL C was significantly increased in the supplemented group( F =109 163, P =0 000; P

Hypertension is a global problem,affecting both developed and developing nations. The mor-bidity of hypertension in children and adolescents has increased year by year in recent years. Hypertension in children can cause target organ damages(mainly renal,cardiovascular,central neurological,or optic fundal). In clinical practice,we need to find simple and easy methods for early recognition of target organ damages,thus se-rious consequences in adult hypertension may be prevented.

To study the influences of the demographic evolution to government expenditure on health by using the method of generalized method of moment(GMM)by dynamic panel data of 31 provinces or cities from 1998 to 2011. The result showed that the elderly dependency ratio had a significant positive impact on government health expenditure, while the reduction of child dependency ratio would increase it. There were clear differences among regions. The elderly and child dependency ratio were both significantly positive for the eastern region, no significant effect for the central, and positive and negative respectively for the western. Therefore, it is needed to further improve the proportion of government health spending in total health expenditure, increase transfer payment, reduce regional differences and achieve the equalization of basic public health services.

OBJECTIVE: To introduce and analyze the present status of research on decomposed recipes of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). METHODS: The relevant literature on the study of the decomposed recipes of TCM in the past five years was collected and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Studies on the decomposed recipes of TCM have been made from the whole body level to the organ, cell and molecular research level. The pharmacological research in vitro is the main way and quantitative changes of the chemical ingredients have been measured before and after composition. It is very important to combine the modern science and technology in exploring the composing mechanisms of TCM remedies.

This case report presents an extracted maxillary third molar,which have 3 separate roots with 5 canals,the canal configuration in mesiobuccal root are 3 separate orifices and canals,1 apical foramen.The clinician should be aware of this anatomical variation,avoid the missed canals.

Objective To compare cardiovascular responses of intubations by Discopo and Macintosh laryngoscope in elderly patients with hypertension. Methods Sixty elderly hypertensive patients with ASAⅡ~Ⅲundergoing elective surgery were equally randomized into two groups. After induction of general anesthesia , orotracheal intubation was performed with Discopo or Macintosh. The Mean arterial pressure (MBP) and heart rate (HR), as while as Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), were recorded before (baseline values) and at 1,3,5 minutes after intubation(post-induction values). The rate of one-time successive intubation,intubation time and complication were also recorded. Results Compared with the macintosh group, the rate of one-time successive intubation was higher and the intubation time was shorter in the Discopo group (P< 0.05, respectively),with no complications. Compared with T0,MBP and HR at T2 in the two groups and T3 in the Macintosh group increased significantly (P < 0.05). Compared with the Macintosh group,MBP and HR at T2,T3 of the Discopo group decreased significantly (P < 0.05). Conclusion Little effect of tracheal intubation with Discopo on cardiovascular response was observed in elderly hypertensive patients.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of serum amyloid A(SAA)in diagnosing acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD).Methods A total of 86 patients with AECOPD and 46 patients with stable COPD were recruited.SAA determined with ELISA was compared between AECOPD patients and stable COPD patients.The changes of SAA,WBC,the percentage of neutrophils and C-reactive protein (CRP) of AECOPD patients Was compared before and immediately after the last treatment procedure.Results The SAA levels in AECOPD patients were higher than those in stable COPD patients [(182.33±50.12)mg/L vs (6.24±3.05)mg/L,P<0.05].The change of SAA was more evident than that of serum WBC and the percentage of neutrophils before and after the treatment procedure. SAA was more sensitive than CRP in diagnosing lung function severity of AECOPD patients.Conclusion SAA has great diagnostic value in AECOPD diagnosis and evaluation of lung function severity.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been the hot spot of rehabilitation and tissue engineered medicine.Due to their origination from the adult tissues,the multilineage differentiation potential and immune escape characteristics,MSCs become the ideal seed cells for cell transplant treatment.This article summarizes the biological characteristics of MSCs and its application in the treatment of liver disease.

The incidence of gastric carcinoma is increasing and lymphatic metastasis is one of the major causes of death.Vascular endothelial growth factor-C(VEGF-C),Vascular endothelial growth factor D(VEGF-D)linking their receptor(VEGFR-3)can increase lymphangiogenesis,advance lymphatic metastasis,and relate to lymphatic vessel density of tumor.More and more studies of lymphatic vessel of gastric carcinoma cause great attention.We summarizeed the mechanism of lymphangiogenesis,the new development of relationship between lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic vessel density and their clinical significance.
