Early diagnosis and early thrombolysis may have a better prognosis in patients with ischemic stroke.The benefits from the development of modem magnetic resonance imaging techniques in this field have received great attention,and it directly guides the 'management of the acute ischemic stroke,This article briefly reviews diffusion-weighted imaging,perfusion- weighted imaging and MR spectroscopy analysis that are more commonly used in current clini- cal practice.

Objective: To assess the therapeutic effect and safety of Gongmo Kang capsule (GKC) in treating metrorrhagia (with blood stasis syndrome) caused by drug - induced abortion. Methods: A randomized double - blind controlled design was adopted. One hundred and five patients were treated with GKC, and other 104 patients in the control group with Gongxue Ning capsule (GNC). Results: In GKC group, the remarkably effective rate was 73. 33%, the total effective rate was 85. 70% ; the remarkably effective rate for improving syndromes was 80.00% and the total effective rate was 88.57% ; the mean bleeding period was (4.46 ? 1.71) days. GKC appeared to be more effective than GNC (P

Objective To understand how resistance and whether its compensatory hyperinsulinemia will influence the ovulatory function and sex hormone level,especially in the testosterone level and blood lipid level and to observe the effects of metformin on the polycystic ovary syndrome with pseudoacanthosis nigricans and the insulin resistance.Methods The method of the research is to carry out a three-month tretment for 30 patients who were suffering from the polycystic ovary syndrome with the pseudoacanthosis nigricans and the insulin resistance.During the treatment much attention was drawn to the following aspects of the patients.Such as the body mass index,the waist hip ratio,the fasting blood glucose,the fasting insulin,two hours after postcibal blood glucose and postcibal insulin,the insulin sensitive index,the change of blood lipid and sex hormone level,and the skin lesion change.Results After the treatment,all the indexes fell except that the insulin sensitive index rose.There was significancely difference(P

To observe the clinic effects and complication of Ahmed glaucoma valve(AGV) implantation in refractory glaucoma by using the 23G syringe needle direct puncture the sclerotic tunnel.METHODS: Forty-four cases ( 44 eyes ) of refractory glaucoma underwent AGV implantation by useing the 23G syringe needle direct puncture the sclerotic tunnel. The intraocular pressure ( lOP ) , visual acuity, and complication of post - operation were contrasted with those of pre-operation.RESULTS:The success rate was 84. 1%, the mean preoperative lOP in research group was 52. 1±10. 1mmHg, and the last follow up mean lOP was 15. 6 ± 6. 9mmHg. Compared with the preoperative visual acuity, 11 eyes increased, 27 eyes had no changes and 6 eyes decreased. The main post-operative complications included shallow anterior chamber ( 4 eyes ) , choroidal detachment ( 3 eyes), drainage tube shift (1 eye), hyphema (6 eyes), drainage tube blockage ( 1 eye ) , expulsive choroidal hemorrhage (1 eye), and fiber wrap of drainage tray (5 eyes) .CONCLUSlON:AGV implantation by direct puncture the sclerotic tunnel is feasible and easy. lt avoids of making sclerotic petal and the xenogenic sclera transplanting, simplified the operation technique, prevent the leakage of around tube. The shallow anterior chamber rate is lower. lt is an effective procedure for refractory glaucoma.

Depression, a seriously harmful disease to peoples ’ physical and mental health , is prevailing world-wide.But the etiology and pathological mechanism is still not fully uncovered .With the development of social economy and the pace of life speeding up , increasing pressure and vulnerable emotion cause depression incidence increased rapidly .For the further research on depression , study of depression mechanism and antidepressant drugs highly depends on effective ani -mal models .The degree of similarity of animal models to human disease status and the accuracy and reliability of evaluation methods of animal models directly influence the value of the resuts of experiments .In this article we introduce the common-ly used animal models of depression , the evaluation indicators at organism , organ, and molecular levels , and to provide theoretical references for the further studies on depression .

Orange peel was used as lowcost adsorbent in binding of Methylene Blue.The effects of equilibrium time,pH,dye concentration have been studied.Carboxyl,amine and phosphonate functional groups were present in the orange peel.The equilibrium time was 1 hour,the maximum adsorption capacities of the orange peel was 370.3?31.0 mg/g at pH 10.The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms were well fitted in this biosorption system.Results showed relatively higher rate constant and biosorption capacities.These adsorption performance indicate the orange peel as a potentially economical adsorbent for dye removal.

Applications of network pharmacology are increasingly widespread and methods abound in the field of drug development and pharmacological research. In this study, we choose rosiglitazone compound as the object to predict the targets and to discuss the mechanism based on three kinds of prediction methods of network pharmacology. Comparison of the prediction result has identified that the three kinds of prediction methods had their own characteristics: targets and pathways predicted were not in accordance with each other. However, the calcium signaling pathway could be predicted in the three kinds of methods, which associated with diabetes and cognitive impairment caused by diabetes by bioinformatics analysis. The above conclusion indicates that the calcium signaling pathway is important in signal pathway regulation of rosiglitazone compound, which provides a clue to further explain the mechanism of the compound and also provides a reference for the selection and application of methods of network pharmacology in the actual research.

OBJECTIVETo explore the role of Compound Danshen Injection (CDI) in regulating the expression of aquaporin 3 (AQP3) in human amnion epithelium cells (hAECs), and to study the relation between c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signal pathway and AQP3.

METHODShAECs were isolated and primarily cultured from term pregnancy with normal amniotic fluid volume and from term pregnancy with oligohydramnios, and then hAECs were further divided into four groups, i.e., the blank control group (A), the SP600125 group (B), the CDI group (C), and the SP600125 +CDI group (D). The cell viability was measured by cell counting kit-8 assay (CCK-8). The expression of total JNK, phosphorylated JNK, and AQP3 were determined by Western blot.

RESULTS(1) In hAECs with normal AFV or with oligohydramnios: There was no statistical difference in the cell viability or the expression of total JNK among the 4 groups (P > 0.05). But there was statistical difference in the expression of p-JNK (P < 0.05). Compared with A group, the expression of p-JNK was obviously down-regulated in B group, but obviously up-regulated in C group (P < 0.05). The expression of p-JNK was significantly lower in D group than in C group, but higher than that in A group or B group (P < 0.05).The AQP3 expression in the hAECs with normal amniotic fluid volume of C group and D group were higher than that in the A group (P < 0.05). However, there was no statistical difference in the AQP3 expression between C group and D group (P > 0.05). In hAECs with oligohydramnios, the expression of AQP3 obviously decreased in B group, but up-regulated in C group (both P < 0.05). The expression of AQP3 was lower in D group than in C group, but higher than in B group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONCDI could regulate the AQP3 expression in hAECs with oligohydramnios via activating the JNK signal pathway.
