OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of Chaihu on the hepatic cell apoptosis of experimental liver-injured mice and to discuss its mechanism. METHODS: 24 mice were randomly divided into 4 groups : blank control group, model control group, low dosage of Chaihu group and high dosage of Chaihu group, each administered with relevant medications and then killed. The expressions of Bax and Bcl-2 in the hepatic tissue of mice were measured by immunohistochemical method. RESULTS: The expression of Bax in Chaihu treatment group was significantly stronger than that in model control group (P

Objective To evaluate the methodological quality of clinical trials on Chinese medicine interventional chemothera-py induced gastrointestinal toxic reactions from 2000 to 2014.Methods The randomized controlled trials(RCT)and semi-RCT on Chinese medicine interventional chemotherapy induced gastrointestinal toxic reactions were retrieved from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),Wanfang databases,VIP,China Biology Medicine Database (CBM)and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)database by computer and supplemented by the manual retrieval (January 2000 to December 2014).The methodo-logical quality assessment on the included RCT and semi-RCT was conducted by using the Cochrane risk assessment table of bias. Results 291 articles were finally screened out,only 76 of RCT and semi-RCT were conformed to the at least one of low risk stand-ards of Cochrane risk assessment table of bias.Therefore the total methodological quality was not good enough.Conclusion The publishing of clinical trials on Chinese medicine interventional chemotherapy induced gastrointestinal toxic reactions shows the in-creasing trend year by year during the past 14 years.However,the different defects exist in the overall trial design.

Objective In order to understand the Sanya of iodine deficiency disorders(IDD) prevention and cure,and to provide a scientific basis for formulating corresponding control measures.Methods According to the requirements of Iodine Deficiency Disorders Monitoring Program,one townships(districts) in Sanya of Hainan in 2011 were selected based on their positions of east,south,west,north and center,respectively.Four administrative villages in each township(district) were selected in the same way.Fifteen salt samples,8 urine samples of women of childbearing age and 1 drinking water sample from each adninistrative village were collected.In the primary school of each township(district),40 students aged 8 to 10 were selected to check up their thyroid,test their intelligence quotient (IQ) and urinary iodine.Thirty three fifth-grade students in each of the primary schools were selected to launch a questionnaire survey of health education knowledge and test(semiquantitative test) their household edible salt.Salt iodine was detected by direct titrimetry; urinary iodine and water iodine were detected by As-Ce catalytic spectrophotometry; and children's IQ values were measured using the Combined Raven Test (CRT) in rural edition.Results Totally 300 salt samples were tested,and the median salt iodine was 31.0 mg/kg.The iodized salt coverage rate was 96.67％ (290/300),and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 96.00％ (288/300).Totally 200 urine samples were tested,and the median urinary iodine was 194.6 μg/L;and the range of urinary iodine was between 18.50 μg/L and 655.10 μg/L,the proportions of less than 50 μg/L and between 50 μg/L and ＜ 100 μg/L were 4.00％ (8/200) and 13.50％ (27/200),respectively.A total of 200 children were examined by palpation,and the goiter rate was 1.00％(2/200).Mean IQ value of the students was 97.66 and there were 8 students whose IQ values were lower than 69 and 20 students whose IQ values were between 70 and 79.The average score was 3.24 of the 165 students who took part in the questionnaire survey of health education knowledge.There were 43 students who failed in the exam,and the failed rate was 26.06％.The coverage rate of iodized salt in household was 96.36％ (159/165).The median of urinary iodine of the 160 women of childbearing age was 162.95 μg/L,the range of urinary iodine were between 9.50 μg/L and 908.80 μg/L,and the proportion of less than 100 μg/L was 19.38％ (31/160).The consumption rate of eligible iodized salt was 96.90％ (155/160).The levels of water iodine of the 20 water samples from the 5 townships(districts) were all less than 10.0 μg/L.Conclusions Sanya is still in the area lack of iodine in the environment.In general Sanya has reached the goals of elimination of iodine deficiency disorders,but there are still some of the children and women of childbearing age who are iodine deficient.

Objective To explore the effect of individualized nursing intervention on life quality and efficacy of senile patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) during perioperative period. Methods 212 senile patients with PCI were divided randomly into the control group and the study group with 106 patients in each. The individualized nursing intervention and routine nursing were used in the study group, while only routine nursing was used in the control group. The patients in both groups were investigated in 3 days after PCI with questionnaire designed by the author to compare life quality and efficacy during perioperative period. Results The occurring rate of side-effect of the study group was lower than that of the control group, and the satisfaction degree, quality of life and efficacy were also higher than those of the control group. Conclusions Effective individualized nursing intervention can cor-rect the patients' pre-treatment behavior, provide more health information to the patients and give them the rules of self-nursing, so as to reduce the occurrence rate of complication, improve the patients quality of life and curative effect.

Objective: To study the role of mRNA expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in the occurrence and development of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and the relationship between the expressions of iNOS mRNA and the clinical pathologic characteristics of OSCC. Methods: In situ hybridization assay was used to detect iNOS mRNA in 10 cases of normal oral mucosa, 12 cases of oral epithelial simple hyperplasia, 28 cases of oral epithelial atypicall hyperplasia, and 32 cases of OSCC. Results: The expressions of iNOS mRNA was negative in the normal oral mucosa. The expression of iNOS mRNA in both atypical hyperplasia and OSCC groups were significantly higher than that in simple hyperplasia group (P <0.001). Statistical analysis showed a significant correlation between iNOS mRNA expression and the grade of atypical hyperplasia (P <0.05). No significant difference of iNOS mRNA expression was found between atypical hyperplasia and OSCC groups (P > 0.05). The expression of iNOS mRNA in the group of well-, moderately- and poorly-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma was significantly different (P < 0.05). The expression of iNOS mRNA in stage III and IV OSCC tissues was significantly higher than those at stage I and II, and significantly higher in OSCC patients with neck lymph node metastasis than those without neck lymph node metastasis (P <0.05). Conclusion: iNOS mRNA may play an important role in OSCC development and progression. The expression of iNOS has a close relationship with the differentiation, TNM stage, and neck lymph node metastasis of OSCC. Detection of NOS may be useful in evaluation of patient's prognosis and guidance of OSCC treatment.
