Objective To analyze the dynamic changes in blood lipids and ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) in peripheral blood monocytes of the patients with type 2 diabetes, and explore the correlations between ABCA1 expression and blood lipids levels and glycometabolism. Methods Human monocytes were isolated from the patients with type 2 diabetes (n=40) and from the healthy individuals (n=40) serve as normal control. ABCA1 was labeled by immune reaction PE fluorescence, then the changes in ABCA1 expression before and after being incubated with the ox-LDL were investigated by flow cytometer. The blood lipid levels, fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in the patients of type 2 diabetes group were determined, and the correlations between ABCA1 and age, blood lipid, and glycometabolic levels were analyzed. Results Plasma levels of triglyceride, non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (NHDL-C) [low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and very low density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C)] in the patients of type 2 diabetes group were significantly higher than that in control group (P

Objective To evaluate the curative effect of laparoscopic myomectomy combined with preoperative gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) in treating myoma patients with uterus volume large than 12 weeks of pregnancy size. Methods 46 patients with uterine volume over 12 gestational weeks from August 2009 to August 2016 were selected as research objects. Leuprolide was injected subcutaneously for three to six times, and then laparoscopic myomectomy was performed one month later. The changes of volumes in uterus and myoma before and after medication were observed as well as the changes of hemoglobin. And postoperative recurrence of uterus myoma was followed up. Results The average volume of the uterus in the 46 patients, detected by B ultrasound, before GnRH-a treatment was (705.47 ± 282.37) cm3, and the average volume of the uterus after GnRH-a treatment was (331.95 ± 84.53) cm3, which was shortened by 59.35%, with significant difference (P < 0.05). The volume of uterus myoma was (237.59 ± 138.46) cm3 before GnRH-a treatment and (81.59 ± 46.44) cm3 after GnRH-a treatment, shortened by 65.66%, with significant difference (P < 0.05). The hemoglobin value was (97.80 ± 20.19) g/L before GnRH-a and (119.63 ± 12.06) g/L after GnRH-a treatment, with significant difference (P < 0.05). Follow-up for 3 weeks to 5 years, the surgeries were accomplished successfully, and no case was transferred to laparotomy. Conclusion Preoperative GnRH-a could shorten volume of uterus myoma, increase hemoglobin value and ensure performance of laparoscopic myomectomy for myoma patients with uterus volume large than 12 weeks of pregnancy size.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and treatment of Kaposi's varicelliform eruption. Methods Clinical data on 24 cases of Kaposi's varicelliform eruption were retrospectively analyzed.Results All the 24 patients were accompanied by different underlying skin diseases, including eczema in 17 cases and atopic dermatitis in 7 cases. PCR of vesicle fluid was positive for herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV 1 ) in 16 (66.67%) patients, and culture of vesicle fluid or lesional exudates grew Staphylococcus aureus in 12 (50%) patients. Conclusion Infants with atopic dermatitis or eczema are rather susceptible to Kaposi's varicelliform eruption, which may be partly caused by herpes simplex virus infection.

Objective To analyze the laws of acupoint selection of acupuncture for generalized anxiety disorder (GAD); To provide references for clinical treatment.Methods Computers were used to search articles about acupuncture for GAD from China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database Resource System, Chinese Scientific Journal Database (VIP database) and Chinese BioMedical Literature (CBM) from their respective founding dates to Dec. 31, 2015. The corresponding database was established with NoteExpress2, and the laws of acupoints were analyzed.Results Totally 41 articles were included, including 56 acupuncture prescriptions, involving 50 acupoints in 14 meridians. The frequency for acupoint selection was 287 times. There were 49 main acupoints (225 times of acupoint selection, accounting for 98.0%) and 23 matching acupoints (62 times of acupoint selection, accounting for 46.0%) in the treatment of GAD. Main acupoints with high frequency were Baihui (GV20), Shenmen (HT07), Neiguan (PC06), Sanyinjiao (SP06) and Yintang (GV29). Matching acupoints with high frequency were Zusanli (ST36), Taichong (LR3), Neiguan (PC06), Shenmen (HT07), and Fenglong (ST40). Selecting acupoints along meridian mainly depended on Governor Meridian, Taiyang Bladder Meridian of Foot, Shaoyin Heart Meridian of Hand and Jueyin Pericardium Meridian of Hand.ConclusionPrinciples of acupuncture for GAD is treatment determination from heart and brain, emphasizing syndrome differentiation and identification of diseases, and the clinic mainly adopts acupoints along meridian with symptomatic acupoints treatment.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of flunarizine combined with salvianolate in the treatment of acute migraine. METHODS:A total of 72 patients with acute migraine were randomly divided into control group(36 cases)and observation group (36 cases). Based on routine treatment,control group was given Flunarizine hydrochloride capsules orally,10 mg for 65 year-old and below once a day,5 mg for more than 65 year-old once a day. Observation group was additionally given Flunarizine hydrochloride for injection 200 mg intravenously,once a day,on the basis of control group. Both groups were treated contineously till cured or for 2 weeks. Clinical efficacy,onset time,recovery time,VAS score,frequency and duration of head-ache attack,ADR were observed in 2 groups. RESULTS:In the course of treatment,the two groups did not terminate and fall off, and all of them completed the treatment. The total response rate(97.22%)of observation group was significantly higher than that (86.11%)of control group;onset time and recovery time of observation group were both shorter than those of control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in VAS score,frequency or duration of headache attack between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,VAS score,frequency and duration of headache attack in 2 groups were all significantly lower than before,and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLU-SIONS:Based on routine treatment,flunarizine hydrochloride capsules combined with Salvianolate injection show significant effica-cy for acute migraine with good safety.

The technology of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy(MRS) is a newly-developed mean for analyzing some specific nucleus and their compounds making use of the principles of magnetic resonance and the effects of chemical shift. Currently, among MRS applications, proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1HMRS) is the most widely applied one developed from single voxel to three-dimensional multi-voxel scanning technique. It provides a lot of important information for clinical studies. This article mainly reviews the methods for absolute quantification measurement of brain metabolites using multi-voxel MRS.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the enantioselectivity of norgestrel (NG) transdermal permeation and the potential influence of linalool and lipids on the enantioselectivity. In vitro skin permeation studies of NG across the excised rat skins were performed with Valia-Chien diffusion cells, and the permeation samples were analyzed by enantioselective HPLC. The possible enantioselective permeation of NG across intact rat back skin and lipids extracted rat back skin and the influence of linalool were evaluated. The skin permeation rate of dl-NG was two times higher than that of l-NG when donor solutions (EtOH/H2O 2 : 8, v/v) containing l-NG or dl-NG. It may be mainly attributed to the solubility discrepancy between enantiomer and racemate. The enantioselective permeation of dl-NG across intact rat skin was observed when the donor solutions containing dl-linalool. The permeation flux of l-NG was 22% higher than that of d-NG. But interestingly, the enantioselective permeation of dl-NG disappeared under the same experimental condition except that the lipid extracted rat skin was used. Attenuated total reflection-fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis of stratum corneum showed that the wave number for asymmetric CH2 stretching vibrations of lipids treated with dl-linalool was greater than that of the control. The results indicated that the enantioselective permeation of NG may be contributed by the interaction between dl-linalool and lipids. More than half of lipids were composed of ceramides. The stereospecific interaction maybe existed among chiral enhancer (linalool), lipids (ceramides) and/or chiral drugs (NG).

Objective To investigate the effect of 1?,25-dihy-droxyvitamin D3 (1?,25(OH)2D3) on the expression of receptor activator of NF-?B ligand (RANKL),osteoprotegerin (OPG) and RANKL mRNA,OPG mRNA,of rat osteobalsts (OB). Method The expression of RANKL and OPG was detected by the method of Immunohistochemistry and ELISA. RANKL mRNA and OPG mRNA were determined through FQ-PCR. Results Compared with the control group and the group with 1 nmol/L 1?,25(OH)2D3,10 and 100 nmol/L 1?,25(OH)2D3 can significantly induce the expression of RANKL and RANKL mRNA. 1,10 nmol/L 1?,25(OH)2D3 can stimulate the expression of OPG and OPG mRNA significantly,while 100 nmol/L 1?,25(OH)2D3 can inhibit the expression of OPG mRNA significantly. There were no difference in the rate of RANKL/OPG and RANKL mRNA/OPG mRNA between the control group and the group with 1 nmol/L 1?,25(OH)2D3,however the rate of RANKL/OPG and RANKL mRNA/OPG mRNA in the group with 10,100 nmol/L were higher than the control group and the group with 1 nmol/L 1?,25(OH)2D3. Conclusion Lower dosage of 1?,25(OH)2D3 (1 nmol/L) had no significant effect on bone turnover,but higher dosage of 1?,25(OH)2D3 (10,100 nmol/L) can enhance bone turnover through facilitating the formation and activity of osteoclasts via enhancing RANKL mRNA/OPG mRNA and RANKL/OPG..
