AIM　To investigate the chemical constituents from the rhizomes of Cimicifuga acerina (Sieb. et Zucc.) Tanaka. METHODS　Column chromatgraphy (including silica gel and ODS) together with HPLC was used to separate the chemical constituents whose structures were determined by FAB-MS, NMR (1D and 2D) and hydrolysis methods. RESULTS　Five cycloartane triterpenoids were isolated and identified as: (22R)-22-hydroxycimigenol (I), (22R)-22-hydroxy-24-O-acetylhydroshengmanol 3-O-β-D-xylopyranoside (II), dahurinol (III), 24-epi-24-O-acetyl-7,8-didehydroshengmanol 3-O-β-D-xylopyranoside (IV), 25-O-acetyl-7,8-didehydrocimigenol 3-O-β-D-xylopyranoside (V). CONCLUSION　Compound I is a new natural product, compound II is a new compound and compounds IV and V were isolated from this plant for the first time.

Object To isolate and identify the chemical constituents from the rhizome of Cimicifuga dahurica (Turcz ) Maxim Methods The different chromatographic techniques were used to isolate ten constituents, and the spectral methods, such as IR, MS, 1HNMR, 13 CNMR and 2DNMR, were used to identify the structures Results Their structures were identified as cimigenol (Ⅰ), 24 epi 7, 8 didehydrocimigenol 3 O ? D xylopyranoside (Ⅱ), 7, 8 didehydrocimigenol 3 O ? D xylopyranoside (Ⅲ), 25 O acetyl 7, 8 didehydrocimigenol 3 O ? D xylopyranoside (Ⅳ), 3 arabinosyl 24 O acetylhydroshengmanol 15 glucoside (Ⅴ), isoferulic acid (Ⅵ), (E) 3 (3′ methyl 2′ butenylidene) 2 indolinone (Ⅶ), sucrose (Ⅷ), ? sitosterol (Ⅸ) and stigmastenol 3 O ? D glucopyranoside (Ⅹ), respectively Conclusion Compounds Ⅱ Ⅳ, Ⅹ are isolated for the first time from the title plant

Objective To analyze the correlation between non-motor symptoms (NMS) and the quality of life in the mild Parkinson's disease (PD) patients of different genders.Methods 85 mild PD patients (H-Y stage 1～2) were investigated.The PD NMS Quest was used to assess NMS.The quality of life was assessed with SF-36 questionnaire.Results Stepwise linear regression analysis showed that nocturia,restless legs,depression,daytime sleepiness,decreased interest,smell taste problems were positively correlated with the score of life quality of male and pain,increased sweating,taste smell problems,sleep problems,changes in libido,decreased memory,diplopia influenced life quality score of female.The scores of SF-36 questionnaire of the male with PD were lower than that of female patients.Conclusions The nonmotor symptom (NMS) There was a gender difference about the influence that NMS has made on PD patients.The male's life quality were lower than that of female patients about mild PD patients.

Objective To observe the near future curative effect and toxicity of the combination of weekly dose of cisplatin in the treatment of elderly patients with esophageal cancer intensity-modulated radiotherapy observa-tion.Methods 60 patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer patients aged by method randomly were divided into synchronous chemotherapy group( CRT group) and 30 cases of radiotherapy alone group( RT group) 30 cases,the two groups using 6MV-X ray intensity modulated radiotherapy,radiotherapy dose:DT 60 Gy/30/6 week.The CRT treated group was given cisplatin 20-25mg/m2 in the radiotherapy of second day,1 times per week,a total of 6 times. Results Radiotherapy and chemotherapy, radiotherapy group recent effective rate were 80.0% and 63.3%, the difference was statistically significant(χ2 =5.934,P<0.05),P< 0.05).The main toxicity was myelosuppres-sion,radiation esophagitis,basically I and II,no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusion Intensity modulated radiotherapy combined with weekly dose of cisplatin in the treatment of elderly patients with esophageal cancer significant short-term effect,less adverse reactions,patient tolerance is good,which is worth the clinical promotion.

Objective To evaluate the monitoring value of serum albumin and plasma von willebrand factor in patients with stroke.Methods Serum albumin and plasma von willebrand factor were measured from 145 patients with stroke(95 patients with nonpoor outcome and 50 patients with poor outcome) in two weeks and after six months from stroke onset to study the relationships with prognosis.Results Serum albumin level was significantly higher in patients with nonpoor outcome(mRS≤2) after six months stroke onset than those with poor outcome(mRS≥3) and was lower after six months stroke onset than in two weeks from stroke onset.On the other hand,plasma vWF level in patients with stroke was significantly higher than that in healthy controls and was higher in two weeks than after six months from stroke onset.Patients with poor outcome had higher plasma vWF level than patients with nonpoor outcome in two weeks and after six months from stroke onset,but had no significant difference.Conclusion The level of serum albumin and plasma von willebrand factor is related with nutritional status,active extent and prognosis in patients with stroke.

Objectives To assess the effect of nicorandil and trimetazidine on myocardial microcirculation reperfusion in patients with NSTEMI after elective PCI. Methods 80 patients with NSTEMI were randomly assigned to four groups: normal medicine group (CON), nicorandil group (NIC), trimetazidine group (TMZ) and Combination group (NIC+TMZ). The coronary angiography and PCI were performed after 10 days. MCE was taken since 72 hours after operation. Results There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the four groups (P > 0.05). The A, β and A ·β of group NIC were significantly higher than group CON (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences between the group TMZ and the group CON (P>0.05). The A,βand A·βof group NIC+TMZ were significantly higher than group NIC or TMZ (P<0.05). Conclusions Nicorandil can improve the situation of myocardial reperfusion after elective PCI in patients with NSTEMI, and it has some synergetic effect when combined with trimetazidine.

Methods A total of 16 fetal DNA sam ples from m aternal plasm as (8 cases from 38 w eeks gestational age and 8 ones from 12 w eeks) w ere prepared and a m ultiplex assay w ith 7 STR loci (DYS390,DYS391,DYS393,DYS438,DYS437,DYS456,DYS635) w as designed for m ul-tiplex-PC R am plification. U sing Ion Torrent PGMTM System , the results of Y-STR sequences and capillary electrophoresis w ere obtained and com pared.

C onsistent Y-STR genotypes w ere observed betw een fetal DNA from m aternal plasm a and genom ic DNA from the new born babies. Conclusion B ased on Ion Torrent PGMTM System , the prenatal Y-STR detection m ethod m ay provide a high-sensitive and high-throughput choice for prenatal STR detection in forensic testing.

0.05).The serum concentrations of CK-MB changed unsignificantly between reperfusion and perfusion period in either group.In both groups LDH_1 level was less than that of LDH_2 during reperfusion period. Conclusion:Continuous potassic warm blood perfusion is reliable for myocardial protection.

Pulse diagnosis system of traditional Chinese medicine is a complicated nonlinear macrosystem.Directed by complexity science theory,and introduced with idea of complex-simple-complex,the pulse diagnosis message is multidimensionally extracted,analyzed with reduced integration,and integrated with upgrade stage and dimension,according to four kinds of attributes "the Position,the Rate,the Shape,the Force".After the digitization,the new kind of pulses diagnosis instrument is manufactured with this mechanism.
