Abundant evidences indicate a role of GABAergic system in the pathogenesis of neuropsychiatric dis-orders. GABAA receptors modulators have been long used in clinical. But the unwanted side-effect and risk of drug dependence have limited their use. With the increase understanding of the role of individual GABAA recep-tor subtypes in the pathology of these diseases, the subtype-selective GABAA receptors modulators and the multi-compound therapy may serve as potential therapeutic strategies. Here we review the researches which revealed the involvement of GABAA receptors in anxiety, depression and schizophrenia, and the research for new development in subtype-selective GABAA receptor modulators.

Objective: To develop an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for simultaneous determination of six components (indirubin, peimine, peiminine, ginkalide A, ginkalide B, and ginkalide C) in Baikening Granules. Methods: Preparing the samples solution by Soxhlet's extraction using methanol-chloroform as solvent, and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) with a polarity-switching electrospray ionization (ESI) source between positive and negative modes was used for the quantification of indirubin, two peimisines, and three bilobalides. The detection was performed on an Inertsutain C18 column (75 mm × 3.0 mm, 2 μm) using a mobile phase consisted of methanol-acetonitrile and 2 mmol/L ammonium acetate water solution with gradient elution lasting 6 min. Results: All of the analytes showed good linearity (r ≥ 0.995 8) in the tested ranges. The precision, repeatability, and stability of the method were good for the six components. The average recoveries were in the range of 96.5%-105.1% with relative standard deviations (RSD) ≤ 4.2%. Conclusion: The new established polarity-switching LC-MS-MS method has been proven to be highly sensitive and effective in evaluating the quality of Baikening Granules, and peimine, peiminine, ginkalide A, ginkalide B, and ginkalide C are quantified in this drug for the first time.

Objective To study the clinical application of the lung lesion biopsy through helical CT-guided fine needle aspiration. Methods 44 cases of lung lesions were pathologically biopsy diagnosed through helical CT-guided fine needle aspiration. Results All 44 lung lesions were successfully conducted biopsy through CT-guided fine needle aspiration, and the pathological confirmed diagnosis rate was 98%. Conclusion With high diagnosis rate, CT- fine needle aspiration is clinically applicable and the complication is rare. It is easily-operated, safe and economical.

Aldose reductase ( AR ) belonging to nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate ( NADPH ) -dependent aldehyde-keto reductase superfamily, is the key rate-limiting enzyme in the polyol pathway which plays an important role in the body’s high-sugar metabolism. AR is widely present in the kidneys, blood vessels, lens, retina, heart, skeletal muscle and other tissues and organs, converts glucose to sorbitol which easy permeability of cell membranes, cause cell swelling, degeneration, necrosis, and have a close relationship with the development of chronic complications of diabetes mellitus. Diabetic retinopathy ( DR ) is a multifactorial disease, the exact cause is currently unknown, but polyol pathway has been demonstrated to play an important role in the pathogenesis of DR. Clinical risk factors such as blood sugar control, blood pressure and other treatments for DR only play a part effect of remission or invalid, if we can find out DR genes associated with the disease, this will contribute to a better understanding of the pathological mechanisms and contribute to the development of new treatments and drugs. The current research progress of AR, AR gene polymorphism, Aldose reductase inhibitors to DR was reviewed in this article.

BACKGROUND: The elevation of plasma fibrinogen(Fbg) is a key risk factor of cerebrovascular diseases. The evaluation of the monomer polymerization function of fibrin has even more important clinical merit than the detection of Fbg level.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical significance of the monomer polymerization function of fibrin in patients with isehemie cerebrovascular diseases and its impacts on rehabilitative intervention.DESIGN: A case control study employing patients and healthy individual as subjects.SETTING: An Institute of Hematology and Department of Neurology of one university.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 110 patients with different ischemic cerebrovascular disease selected from the Department of Neurology, Union Hospital of Tongji Medical College, Huazhong Science and Technology University from September 2001 to March 2002, and 50 healthy individuals were included in the study.METHODS: Rehabilitative intervention was performed in 31 randomly selected cerebral infarct patients, and the parameters indicating the monomer polymerization functions of fibrin in the plasma were detected by the measurement system for the monomer polymerization function of fibrin.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Abnormal condition of monomer polymerization function of fibrin in each parameter.RESULTS: Each parameter indicating the monomer polymerization functions of fibrin in plasma was significantly increased in ischemic cerebrovascular diseases patients than healthy individuals( P ＜ 0.01 ) . The abnormal rate of Fbg leveland fibrin monomer polymerization velocity (FMPV) was significantly elevated in ischemic cerebrovascular disease patients than healthy individuals ( P ＜ 0. 01 ) . The relative risk(RR) of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases in patients with abnormal FMP functions was 4 to 31 times more than healthy control group. In cerebral infarct group, FMPV of anterior circulation infarct subgroup was significantly elevated than that of posterior circulation infarct and lacunar cerebral infarct subgroups( P ＜ 0.05). The FMP function of anterior cerebral infarct patients was significantly higher than that of healthy group before rehabilitative intervention. Although each FMP parameter reduced after rehabilitative intervention, the difference between was not significant compared with that of before therapy.CONCLUSION: FMP function analysis can completely and objectively reflect the coagulation status of the patients with ischemic cerebrovascular diseases, and it can also reflect the range and severity of infarct to some extent. Although common rehabilitative intervention cannot effectively improve the high-coagulation of the blood, the impacts of specific rehabilitative intervention on the coagulation mechanism deserve further investigation.

AIM: To evaluate the effect of intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) injection 1 week before pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) patients. METHODS: A retrospective research was done on 46 PDR patients who were divided into PPV group (n=28) and IVB group (n=18, PPV with preoperative IVB). Bevacizumab was injected 1 week before PPV. Main outcome measures were visual acuity, incidence of iatrogenic retinal breaks, intraoperative and postoperative bleeding. RESULTS: At 1 month after surgery, visual acuity in PPV (82.1%) and IVB group (88.9%) improved significantly (P<0.01) and the difference between the two groups was not significant. Iatrogenic retinal breaks were reported in 18 cases (64.3%) in PPV group and 4 cases (22.2%) in IVB group (P<0.05). Intraoperative bleeding was encountered in all cases in PPV group and 7 cases (39%) in IVB group (P<0.01). Postoperative bleeding was reported in 9 cases (32.1%) in PPV group and none in IVB group (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: IVB injection before PPV is helpful in reducing iatrogenic retinal breaks, intraoperative and postoperative bleeding in PDR patients.

Objective To evaluate the effect of Alprostsdil combined with Magnesium Isoglycyrrhizinate on hepatocirrhosis at active phase. Method 74 inpatients collected from our hospital were randomly divided into control group(37 cases)and treatment group(37 cases). The patients in control group were given conventional liver protecting treatment. In addition to routine therapy of the control group, the patients in treatment group received intravenous Alprostadil and Magnesium Isoglycyrrhizinate injection once a day for 4 weeks. Results The total effective rate of treatment group was 67. 6%, and that of control group was 40. 5%, and the difference was significant (P ＜ 0. 05).Conclusion Alprostadil combined with Magnesium Isoglycyrrhizinate has good clinical therapeutic effect on hepatocirrhosis at active phase.
