OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of external application of Zhuangshenling Recipe (ZR) combined with Western medicine (WM) on the heart function of chronic heart failure (CHF) patients of Xin-Shen yang deficiency, interior retention of water-fluid syndrome (XSYDIRWFS).

METHODSTotally 140 CHF patients of XSYDIRWFS were randomly assigned to two groups, the treatment group and the control group, 70 in each group. All patients received WM therapy. Those in the treatment group were applied with ZR at Xinshu (BL15) and Shenshu (BL23), while those in the control group were applied with placebos at Xinshu (BL15) and Shenshu (BL23). The therapeutic course for all was 12 weeks. The integrals of TCM syndrome, grading of cardiac function, brain natriuretic polypeptide (BNP), and 6 min walking distance were observed before and after treatment.

RESULTSAfter twelve weeks of treatment, the effective rate of improved grading of cardiac function, the total effective rate of TCM syndrome efficacy, and the BNP level were obviously better in the treatment group (P < 0.05). There was no statistical difference in 6 min walking distance between the two groups (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONExternal application of ZR combined with WM could improve the heart function of CHF patients of XSYDIRWFS.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the role of clinical pharmacist in pulmonary infection therapy for a patient with hyper-sensitivity to several kinds of antibiotics. METHODS:Through admission evaluation,clinical pharmacists participated in the formu-lation of pulmonary infection therapy regimen for a patient with hypersensitivity to several kinds of antibiotics. According to clinical efficacy and disease condition,clinical pharmacists adjusted therapy plan and provided individual pharmaceutical care. RESULTS:Physician adopted clinical pharmacist’s suggestions,and then the patient transferred to community hospital after pulmonary infec-tion had been controlled. CONCLUSIONS:Clinical pharmacists adopt admission assessment and classification management,posi-tion high risk patient,provide whole-course pharmaceutical care,and help physician to optimize and promote therapy plan,in or-der to guarantee the safety of drug use.

AlM: To evaluate the clinical effect of 200g/L protein-free calf blood extract eye gel for corneal epithelial defect.METHODS: One hundred and sixty - eight cases of corneal epithelial defect ( 58 cases with herpes simplex keratitis; 24 cases with chemical injury; 85 cases with pterygium operation injury ) were randomly divided into two groups: 84 eyes were treated with protein-free calf blood extract eye gel; 84 cases were treated with basic fibroblast growth factor eye gel ( bFGF ) . The bFGF and protein-free calf blood extract eye gels were used 4 times a day. The treatment course was 7d. Epithelial defect restoration, local symptom and sign were observed.
RESULTS: The difference between pre-treatment and post-treatment was significant ( P<0. 01 ) in the two groups. The effect of protein-free calf blood extract eye gel (83. 3%) group was prior to that of bFGF (69%) for corneal epithelial defect. The effective rate of protein-free calf blood extract eye gel in the herpes simplex keratitis, chemical injury and pterygium operation injury was 72. 4%,69. 2% and 95. 2%. Localized stimulus and adverse reaction of all over the body were not been observed.
CONCLUSlON: Protein-free calf blood extract eye gels is valuable and safe for corneal epithelial defect.

Object To study the chemical constituents in the lipophilic portion of Panax notoginseng (Burk.) F H Chen Methods Through monitoring each fraction based on antimicrobial experiment of Staphylococcus aureus Rosenbach, the constituents were isolated on silica gel column chromatography and preparative TLC, and the chemical structures were identified by means of spectral data (IR, MS, 1HNMR, 13 CNMR, DEPT, HMQC, HMBC) Results Three compounds were isolated from its petroleum ether extract and identified as: panaxynol (Ⅰ), panaxydol (Ⅱ), and ? sitosterol (Ⅲ) Conclusion Compounds Ⅰ, Ⅱ having strong antimicrobial activity against S aureus were obtained from this plant with the yields of 0.01% and 0.033%

Objectiive:The present study was designed to explore whether overexpression of human wild ?-synuclein in rat brain caused selective dopaminergic neuron loss in substantia nigra and aimed to find out a new method to make a rat model of Parkinson's disease(PD).Methods:The human wild ?-synuclein gene was induced into the rat brain by Adeno-Associated Virus(AAV) vector.The overexpression of ?-synuclein was detected by realtime PCR.The behavior of rats were recorded every 4 weeks after the viral particle injection.TH immunohistochemistry were performed at 4,8,12 and 16 weeks post-injection as well as the dopamine(DA),3,4-dihydroxypheny-lacetic acid(DOPAC) of striatum were determined by high performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrochemical detection.Results:Realtime PCR results revealed a significant overexpression of ?-synuclein in the injected hemisphere.By 8 weeks post injection,a significant loss of the dopaminergic neurons was observed.34% of the dopaminergic neurons were lost after 12 weeks,and about 60% cells loss after 16 weeks.The DA and DOPAC levels in the striatum decreased about 15% 12 weeks after injecting viral particle carried ?-synuclein gene and 30% decreased after 16 weeks.The AAV-?-synuclein-treated rats developed a type of motor impairment,i.e.,head position bias,compatible with this magnitude of nigrostriatal damage.Conclusion:All the results showed that overexpression of human wild ?-synuclein caused selective dopaminergic neuron loss and mimic a symptom of human PD in rats.This may be a new methed to make rat PD model which can offer new opportunities for the study of pathogenetic mechanismsand exploration of new therapeutic targets of particular relevance to human PD.

Objective To investigate the cognition and behaviors of sun-protection and the facial photoaging in a Nanjing population, and to analyze the relationships between them. Methods The objects being investigated in Nanjing (n=974) were divided into 10 groups according to age. The ordinary information, knowledge and behavior of sun-protection and Glogau photoageing type of face were studied by questionnaires. The results were analyzed by a logistic regression model to select the related factors to photoageing. Results The risk of skin photoageing increased with age. Most of the 46-65 years old crowds were type Ⅲ photoageing. Most of the objects being investigated had some knowledge and active awareness of sun-protection and could use some ways to protect themselves from sun. However, most people did not use the sunscreen correctly. Those who had higher level awareness and knowledge of sunprotection suffered less risk from skin photoageing. Sunbath without sunscreen for a long time outside activity was a high risk factor of development to skin photoageing. Shade, broad-brimmed hat and sun-protection in autumn were the protective factors. Conclusion Active awareness and correct methods could help prevent skin photoageing. In order to avoid the damages to skin from ultraviolet efficiently, the accurate ways of using sunscreens should be well understood.

The higher medical education in China starts late and needs further exploration and improvement.While in Germany,it is elite education with a long history.Compared with China,in curriculum setting,Sociology,Medical health security,Humanities and Social Sciences and Organ system classification courses are more emphasized,and in terms of degree,it only has Doctor degree but with higher quality in Germany.Higher medical education in China will also take the path of the elite education.We can learn from the German medical education development experience and pay attention to solving the lack of the curriculum by supplementing social medicine and medical health security,increase the autonomy of the instructors in the training process,strengthen the medical students' social responsibility,and improve the quality of higher medical education in China.
