Objective To support a reasonable and standard TCM treatment principle for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) by exploring TCM syndrome features in NSCLC patients with factor analysis. Methods 105 cases of advanced NSCLC patients,who were admitted to the hospital after 1st January,1998 from 18 to 75 years old,were studied retrospectively with factor analysis of the data. Results According to analysis and synthesis of tongue,pulse and symptoms,the deficiency of qi and yin (37.14%) and the stagnation of phlegm and blood stasis (39.05%) were the major syndromes when advanced NSCLC was diagnosed. Conclusion One of TCM intervention treatment principles for NSCLC,which includes invigorating qi and yin,promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis,regulating the flow of qi and resolving phlegm,is proposed to instruct the application of herbs,Chinese traditional patent medicines or injections in integration treatment and stage treatment for improving quality of life and elongating survival period.

Objective To observe the change and its clinical significance of serum B-type brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) concentration in patients with acute cerebral hemorrhage. Methods The plasma BNP level was measured by microparticle enzyme immunosorbent assay (MEIA) method in 100 patients with acute cerebral hemorrhage. The blood volume of cerebral hemorrhage was computed respectively. The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) were used to evaluate nerve function on the 1st, 3rd, 7th and 15th day after admission, and the Glasgow Out-come Scale (GOS) was used when the patient was discharged from hospital or died. Results The plasma BNP level at the 2nd day after admission was positively correlated with the blood volume of cerebral hemorrhage in patients with acute cerebral hemorrhage (r=0.367, P=0.000), with NIHSS score at the 1st, 3rd, 7th and 15th after admission (r=0.491, 0.444, 0.427 and 0.458, all P=0.000), and with GOS score (r=0.507, P=0.000). In addition, it was negatively correlated with GCS score at the 1st, 3rd, 7th and 15th after admission (r=-0.553, -0.429, -0.473 and -0.501, all P=0.000). Conclusions The plasma level of BNP is good for predicting the strike of cerebral hemorrhage patient′s condition, it is likely to provide a original thread for judge the severe degree of patient′s condition.

To examine the effect of Gankang Suppository on duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV), the serum biochemistry and hepatic histology in an animal model of DHBV infection, a model of DHBV infection was established by infecting 1-day-old Yingtaogu ducklings with DHBV-positive serum. The successful model was confirmed by PCR assay and 48 ducklings infected with DHBV were randomly divided into 3 groups: a Gankang Suppository treatment group, an acyclovir (ACV) group and a DHBV model group (control), with each group having 16 animals. All the animals were given the medicines for 4 weeks in a row. The serum of the animals was taken 14 and 28 days after the medication and 7 days after drug discontinuation. Real-time PCR was performed to detect the copy numbers of DHBV DNA in the serum. ALT and AST were dynamically monitored. The ducklings were sacrificed on the 7th day after the discontinuation of the treatment and livers were harvested and examined for inflammation and degeneration of liver cells by using HE staining. The results showed that on day 14, 28 after the treatment and day 7 after the withdrawal, the logarithmic values (log) of DHBV DNA copy numbers in ducklings of Gankang Suppository treatment group were significantly lower than that before the treatment (P=0.0092, P=0.0070, P=0.0080, respectively). Compared with DHBV model control group, the ALT level was significantly decreased (P=0.0020, P=0.0019, respectively) on day 28 after the treatment and on day 7 after the withdrawal. The AST level was also reduced on day 14 after the treatment (P=0.0298). Compared with the ACV control group, the level of ALT was lower on day 7 after the withdrawal (P=0.0016). Histologically, the hepatocyte swelling, vacuolous degeneration and acidophilic degeneration in Gankang Suppository treatment group were alleviated 7 days after the withdrawal as compared with model control group (P=0.0282, P=0.0084, P=0.0195, respectively). It is concluded that Gankang Suppository can effectively suppress DHBV replication, reduce the levels of serum ALT and AST and improve hepatic histology.

Nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) fingerprint of Rhodiola rosea medicinal materials was established, and used to distinguish the quality of raw materials from different sources. Pulse sequence for water peak inhibition was employed to acquire 1H-NMR spectra with the temperature at 298 K and spectrometer frequency of 400.13 MHz. Through subsection integral method, the obtained NMR data was subjected to similarity analysis and principal component analysis (PCA). 10 batches raw materials of Rhodiola rosea from different origins were successfully distinguished by PCA. The statistical results indicated that rhodiola glucoside, butyl alcohol, maleic acid and alanine were the main differential ingredients. This method provides an auxiliary method of Chinese quality approach to evaluate the quality of Rhodiola crenulata without using natural reference substances.
