Objective To explore correlation between gene polymorphism of TNF-alpha and thyroid associated ophtalmopa thy (TAO) in Zhuang ethnic population.Methods DNA and serum samples were collected in patients with TAO in Han/Zhuang population.ELISA was applied to detect level of TNF-alpha in serum and PCR was applied to detect polymorphism of TNF-alpha gene 863C_A.Results The levels of TNF-alpha in patients with TAO increased significantly compared with control group (P ＜ 0.05),and more significantly in Zhuang population compared with Han population (P ＜ 0.05) ;gene frequency of CA was significantly higher in patients with TAO in Zhuang population than that in Han population (P ＜ 0.05),while gene frequency of AA was significantly lower (x2 =0.770,2.145,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Serum level of TNF-alpha increases during occurrence of TAO,and the differences of expression level between different nationalities are due to gene polymorphism of TNF-alpha.

The structure, pharmaceutical functions and extraction and isolation methods of chlorgenic acid were reviewed to provide references for the research of chlorogenic acids and the production of the medicines chlorogenic acids.

Objective: To establish the determination of imperatorin and isoimperatorin in Tongketing Capsule (Radix Angelicae Dahuricae, Pheretima, etc.) by HPLC. Methods: The determination was carried out by HPLC. The mobile phase was acetonitrile water (60∶40) and UV detection wavelength was set at 245nm . The flow rate was 1.0mL?min -1 . The column temperature was 40℃ . Results: There were the good linear relationship between the absorption area value and the concentration in the range of 65?g～325?g for imperatorin and in the range of 50?g～250?g for isoimperatorin, respectively. The average recoveries were 98.3% ( RSD = 1.73% ) and 98.7% ( RSD = 1.65% ), respectively. Conclusion: The method is simple, accurate and can be used to determine imperatorin and isoimperatorin in Tongketing Capsule.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the status quo and problems of the construction of pharmacy staff team from Hubei Wuling mountainous area,and to provide reference for the formulation of construction plan of pharmacy staff team. METHODS:Using questionnaire survey and telephone interviews,the pharmacy staff of 22 hospitals at second level or above from Hubei Wul-ing mountainous area during 2011-2014 were investigated in terms of number,age,educational background,professional title,etc. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:The shortage of pharmacy staff is seious in 22 hospitals at second level or above from this areas (open 10 606 beds,should be staffed 956 pharmacy personnel,actual number of pharmacy personnel is 502);the age structure is unreasonable,and only 220 pharmacy staff aged under 35 year-old;highly educated pharmacy staff accounted for low proportion, and bachelor degree or above took up 29.5%;pharmacy staff with professional title took up low proportion,and pharmacy staff with high,middle and junior professional titles accounted for 1:5:4. The situation of pharmacy staff in the region can be improved through following measures,including striving for policy recommendations,continuously enriching the quantity of pharmacy staff, integrating scientifically and building reasonable talent tem gradually,introducing talents,optimizing education structure of pharma-cy staff,strengthening the training,improving operation level of pharmacy staff,etc.

Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is one of the primary causative agents of hand, foot and mouth disease in children and closely associated with severe neurological complications and even deaths.EV71 outbreaks have occurred throughout the Asia-Pacific region since 1990s, posing global public health threat;however, no specific therapeutic strategy exists for severe EV71 infection.Several inactivated vaccine products have entered or finished the clinical trial stage, and some novel vaccine candidates, including live attenuated, subunit, and virus-like particle, show great potential for further develop-ment.This review summarizes the present situation and progress in the development of EV71 vaccines.

Objective To evaluate the long-term complications of continent ileocolic reservoir with in situ appendix conduit through umbilicus and their management.Methods We reviewed 37 patients with bladder diseases who underwent the surgery of continent ileocolic diversion with in situ appendix conduit through umbilicus and followed up for 85 to 136 months(mean 109 months).Long-term postoperative complications were documented.Results Complications occurred in 15 cases(40.5%),including stone formation in urinary pouch in 2 cases,efferent limb stricture and difficulty in catheterization in 3 cases,ureter stricture and hydronephrosis in 7 cases,foreign matter in urinary pouch in 2 cases,efferent limb mucosa exstrophy in 1 case.These complications were correctly treated and good results were achieved.Conclusion Long-term complications of continent ileocolic diversion with in situ appendix conduit through umbilicus were related to nursing in daily life after operation and unsuited design in operation.Nursing in daily life is considered very important in preventing postoperative complications.

Objective To investigate potential association of XRCC1-Arg399Gln polymorphism with hyroid-tassociated ophthalmopathy(TAO).Methods XRCC1-Arg399Gln polymorphism was identified by PCR-RFLP in 182 patients with TAO and 182 healthy subjects.Results The significant difference of the allelic frequency distribution was found between TAO and control group(P

By reviewing its experimental studies as well as clinical investigations,experiences and proven cases,this paper presented the main directions and methods in the study of Guo-Min (GM) decoction.It proved that GM decoction had identified anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects.Its effect may be through blocking H1 receptors,and lowering IgE in serum of type I allergic reaction to achieve.It showed that the clinical observation on multi-center,large sample randomized double-blinded controlled trials combined with compatibility laws of Chinese herbs and prescriptions by chemomics will be the future study direction of GM decoction.It played significant role in the prevention and treatment of allergic diseases.
