Objective To observe the effects of valsartan and propranolol on the colonic mucosal microcirculation and submucosal ultra-structure changes in rats with portal hypertensive colopathy (PHC).Methods Portal hypertension(PHT) with cirrhosis was induced by composite factors after 42 days in rats.Rats were divided into a normal control group,a cirrhotic PHT model group,a treatment group with valsartan 20 mg/kg once daily,a treatment group with propranolol 22.5 mg/kg twice daily and a combination treatment group with propranolol and valsartan.The rats were treated for 15 days. The rats in the normal control group and the cirrhotic PHT model group were given water only.At the end of study,portal venous pressures(PVP) were measured.The submucosal vascular areas and metrical diameters of phlehectasia were measured by light microscope.The ultra-structure was observed by trans mission electron microscope.Results Compared to the cirrhotic PHT model group,PVPs were significantly decreased in the valsartan,propranolol,and combined groups (P

Objective To investigate the dynamic change of procalcitonin (PCT ) and hypersensitive C‐reactive protein (hs‐CRP) in neonatal infection and its clinical significance .Methods 176 neonates with infection in our hospital from August 2013 to July 2014 were selected and treated by the routine therapy of anti‐infection ,oxygen inhalation ,etc .,and divided into the improvement group(89 cases) ,non‐change group(48 cases) and deterioration group(39 cases) according to the curative effect after 20 d therapy . Serum PCT and hs‐CRP levels were detected before treatment(T0) ,on 5 d(T1) ,10 d(T2) ,15 d(T3) and 20 d(T4) of treatment by adopting the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) .Results The PCT ,hs‐CRP levels and WBC count before treatment had no significant difference among 3 groups(P>0 .05);the PCT and hs‐CRP levels after treatment in the improvement group showed the significantly declining trend ,which reached the lowest at T4 (P<0 .05) ,while the PCT and hs‐CRP levels in the deterioration group showed the obviously rising trend ,which reached the highest at T4 (P<0 .05) ,but which in the non‐change group had no significant change (P>0 .05) .In terms of WBC count ,the WBC count in all the cases showed a rising first and then decreasing trend ,the WBC count at T4 in the improvement group was lower than before treatment(P<0 .05) ,while which in the deterioration group was higher than before treatment (P<0 .05) ,but which in the non‐change group had no significant change between before and after treatment(P>0 .05);the Spearman analysis results after treatment showed that the serum PCT ,hs‐CRP levels and WBC count were negatively correlated with efficacy (r1 = -0 .764 ,P1 <0 .05;r2 = -0 .724 ,P2 <0 .05 ;r3 = -0 .573 ,P3 <0 .05) .Conclu‐sion PCT and hs‐CRP can effectively reflect the therapeutic effect of neonatal infection ,and is closely correlated with the patient′s own immune status ,which can be taken as one of reference indicators for formulating the treatment scheme and evaluating progno‐sis ,and is worth for further clinical promotion .

Objective:To discuss the clinical significance of procalcitonin(PCT) and hypersensitive c-reactive protein(hs-CRP) test in early newborn infection. Methods:Sixty cases of our hospital treatment confirmed infection early newborn children were selected from June 2007 to July 2007,according to the condition was divided into severe infection group and local infection group, at the same time, 30 cases of our new pediatric infection in early neonatal were chosen as control group, to collect the moderate amount of peripheral blood of three groups before and after the treatment, detected and analyzed the levels of PCT and hs-CRP in the serum, Used Pearson correlation analysis to analysis the correlation of PCT and hs-CRP in the serum. Results: Severe infection group serum PCT, hs CRP levels and positive rate higher than that of local infection group, local infection group of PCT, hs CRP levels and positive rate is higher than the control group, the difference was statistically significant; Infection group before treated with serum PCT and hs-CRP levels and positive rate were higher than after treated(x2=7.248, x2=6.934; P<0.05); Pearson correlation analysis show that, according to the results of PCT and hs-CRP were positively correlated (r=0.533, P<0.533). Conclusion:Procalcitonin and hypersensitive c-reactive protein plays an important role in the infections of early neonatal children, PCT and hs-CRP were positively correlated, it can be used as an important index of early diagnosis of early neonatal infectious diseases.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a kind of mental disorder that usually occurs after life-threatening and strong mental traumas .Clinical studies showed that the PTSD patients are 3 times more likely to have can-nabis as compared with the healthy people .The use of cannabinoids has a close relationship with the occurrence and clini-cal manifestations of PTSD .Experimental studies revealed that endocannabinoid ( eCB) signal alterations in animal models of PTSD influenced fear memory of the animals , suggesting a close correlation between the eCB system and the pathogenesis of PTSD.Given that the eCB system was reported to regulate affective states and participate in memory consolidation , re-trieval and extinction , targeting the eCB system may improve the emotional and cognitive features of PTSD , thereby holding out great promise for the development of novel approaches for clinical treatment of PTSD .

A novel method for DNA detection was developed based on the excellent fluorescence properties of cationic conjugated polymer ( CCP)and the target DNA enrichment,separation function of nanoparticles. First,the quencher-labeled DNA capture probes were modified on the surface of Au nanoparticles,and complementary DNA strands were captured. Second,S1 nuclease was added,and the capture probes that had not captured the complementary DNA were removed from the nanoparticles.Finally,the complementary double-stranded DNA was cut by Dnase I,the quenchers were dissociated from nanoparticle and the fluorescence of CCP was quenched by means of combination of quenchers and CCP.The results showed that this method is specific.In the range of 5. 0 -40 nmol/L,the concentration of target DNA was proportional to the fluorescence quenching and the detection limit was 3.7 nmol/L(S/N = 3).

Three hundred and ninety five patients with bronchial asthma were randomly divided into 4 groups:patients in group A received inhaled beclomethasone dipropionate(BDP)100μg and Zhichuan decoction;patients in group B were given inhaled BDP 200μg;patients in group C took Zhichuan decoction only;patients in group D were given inhaled BDP 100 μg.Methacholine airway reactivity,pulmonary ventilation function,serum acidophilia cationic protein and symptom score were determined before and after treatment.All above indicators were significantly improved in groups A and B,which suggests that Zhichuan decoction could reduce hormone dosage in control of airway chronic inflammation,reduction of airway reactivity and improvement of pulmonary ventilation function of patients with bronchial asthma.

To establish a method for simultaneous determination of dehydrotumulosic acid, polyporenic acid C, 3-epi-dehydrotumulosic acid, dehydropachymic acid and pachymic acid in Poria, a RP-HPLC method detected by UV wavelengths switch had been developed, including 210 nm (48-55 min) for pachymic acid and 241 nm (0-48 min) for dehydrotumulosic acid, polyporenic acid C, 3-epi-dehydrotumulosic acid, dehydropachymic acid, separately. The system consisting of a Kromasil C18 column (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 microm) and a mixture of acetonitrile and 0.05% phosphate acid as the mobile phase was adopted; The flow rate was 1.0 mL x min(-1). The linear response range was 30.5-610.0 microg x mL(-1) (r = 0.999 6) for dehydrotumulosic acid, 12.66-253.2 microg x mL(-1) (r = 0.999 5) for polyporenic acid C, 2.99-59.7 microg x mL(-1) (r = 0.999 7) for 3-epi-dehydrotumulosic acid, 6.13-122.5 microg x mL(-1) (r = 0.999 5) for dehydropachymic acid and 11.3-226.0 microg x mL(-1) (r = 0.9995) for pachymic acid. The average recoveries of these compounds were 98.5% (RSD = 1.9%), 99.4% (RSD = 1.7%), 97.9% (RSD = 1.2%), 96.7% (RSD = 2.5%) and 97.9% (RSD = 2.3%), respectively. The method is simple, accurate and reproducible for quality control of Poria.

Objective To evaluate the impact of aderent perirenal fat (APF) on retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RLPN). Methods Clinical data of 52 patients who underwent RLPN for a small renal tumor from October 2013 to December 2015 was analyzed retrospectively. All the patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of APF by preoperative computed tomography imaging. Clinical data was collected including patients' age, gender, BMI, history of hypertension, history of diabetes, American Society of Anesthesiologists score (ASA), intra-abdominal fat (IAF), tumor size, RENAL Nephrometry score (RNS), operative time, warm ischaemia time (WIT), estimated blood loss (EBL), and length of hospital stay. Results Between the two groups, the BMI, tumor size, WIT, length of hospital stay were similar [(26.70 ± 3.33) kg/m2 vs (25.65 ± 4.01) kg/m2, (3.53 ± 1.21) cm vs (3.64 ± 1.05) cm, (27.17 ± 7.55) min vs (25.21 ± 5.64) min, (12.54 ± 4.06) d vs (10.61 ± 3.70) d, P > 0.05)], as well as the ASA and RNS. APF patients were older [(59.25 ± 11.03) y vs (49.71 ± 11.86) y, P = 0.004]. There were a high proportion of men (75.0% vs 46.4%, P = 0.036), patients with hypertension (62.5% vs 28.6%, P = 0.014), and patients with diabetes (41.7% vs 14.3%, P = 0.026). In the APF group, IAF was more [(2.02 ± 0.47) cm vs (1.35 ± 0.66) cm, P = 0.000], operative time was longer [(146.08 ± 45.45) min vs (119.32 ± 28.83) min, P = 0.017], and EBL was higher [(82.92 ± 45.73) ml vs (51.79 ± 25.10) ml, P = 0.005]. Conclusion The adherent preirenal fat sticking renal results in a longer operative time and a higher EBL, but has no influences on the WIT and length of hospital stay. APF makes it difficult to expose the tumor, not to remove it.

Objective To evaluate the application of Mammotome minimally invasive biopsy(MMIBS) in the diagnosis of non-palpable small lesions in breast. Methods A total of 42 patients with non-palpable small breast lesions and abnormal imaging findings were performed MMIBS.After MMIBS,21 patients received open operations,and the pathological diagnosis was compared and analysed. Results All these 42 patients were successfully performed MMIBS,with no severe complications,and the pathological diagnosis of MMIBS were breast cancer(8 patients) and benign pathological changes(34 patients).Among the 21 patients with open operations,the post-operative pathological findings of 20 patients were same as the results of MMIBS,with the sensitivity of 88.9% and specificity of 100%.The other 21 patients without operations were followed up for 6 to 12 months,and no abnormal mammographic and ultrasonographic findings were observed.Conclusion MMIBS boasts the characteristics of minimal invasion,safety,high sensitivity and high specificity,which can serve as the first choice in the diagnosis of non-palpable small lesions with abnormal imaging findings.
