1.The mathematical theory of acupoints.
Chinese Acupuncture & Moxibustion 2013;33(12):1094-1098
The ancient medical classics were retrieved to explore narrative on acupoints. And the relevant content of legal calendar in Shiji (Historical Records) and Hanshu (History of the Former Han Dynasty) were taken as a reference. The result showed that the total number of acu-points were based on the number of 365 days of a year. And the corrupts can be restored with the theory of numerology. The 59 heat point originated from the phase of moon, while the 57 water points originated from the number or year related with diasters. Although acupoints are considered to be related with numerology, the recognition of hot points and water points are held to be associated with experiential points in clinic.

2.Discussion on the concerns in paediatric drug taste masking technology and evaluation
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2023;57(11):3173-3178
Good palatability of pediatric drugs improves the accuracy of dosing and adherence to dosing regimens. Many active pharmaceutical ingredients have an undesirable taste, so effective taste masking methods need to be developed to improve the palatability of pediatric medicines. This article mainly introduces the commonly taste masking techniques and taste evaluation methods, and puts forward suggestions on the concerns and general principles of the pharmaceutical evaluation of taste masking effects based on cases, in order to provide reference for the development of drug taste masking technology in children.
4.Influence of Polysaccharides Removal in Modified Simiao Prescription on Anti- inflammation and Analgesic Action
Traditional Chinese Drug Research & Clinical Pharmacology 1993;0(01):-
Objective To observe the anti- inflammation and analgesic action and anti- urarthritis effect of modified Simiao prescription with polysaccharide removal and thus to screen the effective anti- gout components from modified Simiao prescription. Methods Mouse acetic- acid- induced twisting experiment, mouse xylene- induced auricular swelling experiment, and rat sodium- urate- induced pedal swelling experiment were carried out in this study. Results After the removal of polysaccharides, modified Simiao prescription still kept obvious anti- inflammation and analgesic action and in a dose- effect manner. Conclusion Polysaccharides removal has no influence on the anti- inflammation and analgesic action of modified Simiao prescription .

A questionnaire survey on awareness of child health management was conducted in 238 family members ( 236 were parents) of children aged 0 - 36 months; among whom 92 of children aged 0 to 6 months,85 of children aged 7 to 12 months,33 of children aged 13 to 18 months,16 of children aged 19 to 24 months and 12 of children aged 24 to 36 months.52.1% of the surveyees had college education level.The awareness about medical examination in last half year in female subjects was higher than males ( P < 0.05).There were no differences in other health management knowledge.The results showed that the average times of medical examination was 2.8 ± 1.9 in last half year; the age for supplement of meat in food was 7.4 ± 2.4 mouths; supplement of meat,animal liver and eggs was more than 7 time a week.The subjects with college education or above paid more attention to the children's growth,risk for rickets and anemia than other peoples.Pure breast feeding accounted for only 37.0% (88/238).The study indicates that strengthening the knowledge and awareness is necessary to improve the children health management.

Caveolae are specialized lipid rafts that form flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane. Many researches show that caveolae are involved in cell signaling and transport. Caveolin-1 is the major coat protein essential for the formation of caveolae. Recently, several reports indicated that the other caveolae-associated proteins, Cavins, are required for caveola formation and organization. It's worth noting that Cavin-1 could cooperate with Caveolin-1 to accommodate the structural integrity and function of caveolae. Here, we reviewed that the relationship between Cavins and Caveolins and explore the role of them in regulating caveolae.

Objective To explore the role of intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1)and lym- phocyte function-associated antigen-I(LFA-1)in the pathogenesis of Sjgren's syndrome(SS)and provide a theoretical basis for clinical therapy.Methods Immunohistochemical method was used to detect these two cellular adhesion molecules in labial salivary glands of primary Sjgren's syndrome patients and 15 healthy controls.Semiquantitative analysis was performed by image analysis software.Results①In salivary gland samples,the expression of both ICAM-1 and LFA-1 was significantly higher compared to that of controls(P

Objective: To explore the relationship between the preoperative immune state and the progress, the prognosis in patients with gastric carcinoma. Methods: The NK cell activity (lactdehydrogenase releasing),the level of T cells subgroup (FACS) were detected preoperatively. The data of intra operative findings, pathologic observations and the results of clinical follow up were also studied. Results: The preoperative immune function in cancer patients was significantly reduced compared with the control group, and it had a significantly negative correlation with the stage of the cancer, but a positive correlation with the prognostic results. Conclusion: The detection of the preoperative immune state can play an important role in the estimation of the disease progress and the prognosis in cancer patients.

Objective To determine the association of acanthosis nigricans(AN) with values for estimating insulin resistance and adipocytokine levels in simple obese children. Methods These subjects concluded 38 simple obese children. AN was present in 17 of 38 children. Height, weight and abdominal circumference were recorded and fasting blood sample was obtained for measurement of blood glucose, plasma insulin, leptin, and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) levels which were known as the risk factors of cardiovascular disease. We obtained homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance index (HOMA-R) by fasting blood glucose and plasma insulin levels. Results The severity of obesity, abdominal circumference, fasting insulin levels and HOMA-R were significantly higher in obese children to AN compared to those without AN. There was the tendency that children with AN had higher levels of leptin and PAI-1 compared to children without AN. Conclusions These results suggest that obese children with AN may have a risk of cardiovascular disease as well as type 2 diabetes mellitus.
