1.An Empirical Study on Competiveness of Chinese Medicine Industry Listed Companies Based on Factor and Cluster Analysis
World Science and Technology-Modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2014;(3):490-495
Chinese medicine industry is the new strategic industry with comparative advantage in China. To achieve modernization of Chinese medicine, improving the competitiveness of Chinese medicine enterprise is an inevitable choice. Based on the method of factor analysis and cluster analysis, this article measured and analyzed the competi-tiveness of 42 Chinese medicine listed companies by using the data of year 2012. The result showed that the com-petitiveness of Chinese medicine enterprises was mainly affected by three factors, which were scale of operation, profitability efficiency and growth. The scale of Chinese medicine is small and the large gap of competitiveness ex-its. To enhance the competiveness of Chinese medicine enterprises, this paper put forward corresponding develop-ment recommendations combined with the advantages and disadvantages of Chinese medicine enterprises.
3.Expression of novel gene SNC66 in gastric cancer tissue and normal gastric mucosa
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(04):-
AIM: To study the expression level of gene SNC66 in gastric cancer tissues, and investigate the relationship between the expression of SNC66 and the pathogenesis of gastric cancer.METHODS: Paired normal and cancerous paraffin-embeded tissues from 20 gastric cancer patients were tested by in situ hybridization (ISH) and in situ reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (ISRT-PCR)using ?-actin as a control.RESULTS: ISH and ISRT-PCR both showed that SNC66 were all strong positive expressed in 20 normal gastric mucosa.But in 20 gastric cancer tissues,the ISH showed that 8 were negative,8 were weak positive and 4 were strong positive. The ISRT-PCR showed that 6 were negative,9 were weak positive and 5 were strong positive when the PCR cycled 10 times;4 were negative and 16 were strong positive when the PCR cycled 25 times. CONCLUSION: There was significant expression reduction or defect of SNC66 in gastric cancer tissues.SNC66 should be further investigated as a gastric cancer negative relative gene.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the approach for the improvement and extension of the function of pharmaceutical services in modern hospitals.METHODS:The development of our pharmacy department in recent years was analyzed,aimed at the actual demands of hospitals and patients and in view of the advantages of our department,the new entry point for the pharmaceutical services was explored.RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:By improving the workflow of prescription dispensing,the time for patients to have their prescriptions filled can be greatly shortened and is left for pharmacists to collect drug-related information based on the demands of both patients and clinic and provide professional guidance so as to increase the weight of patients in the treatment course,which is in the interest of medication safety,patients and hospital.
5.Knowledge Discovery on Compatibility Laws of TCM Prescription for Stroke Disease Based on Biclustering Method
Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2013;(11):16-18,19
Objective To explore the key elements in prescription and summarize the law of prescription-herb treatment, to find core herbs/herb group which play a key role in pharmacological effects, then provide new methods and modern techniques for theory of prescription development and TCM clinical research. Methods The text data sources of stroke disease were retrieved from databases of traditonal Chinese prescription. After pre-processing and information extraction, a prescription-herb matrix was constructed, and then biclustering method was used to simultaneous clustering two dimensions of data. Results Totally 648 effective records were gained after preprocessing, and 6913 herbs were extracted, then a 100×648 prescription-herb matrix was generated. Finally 4-way clustering results were output, along with 8 high descriptive prescriptions, then characteristics of prescription laws of diagnosis and treatment according different syndrome and various types of herbs commonly used were summarized. Conclusion This method can be well applied for prescription-herb knowledge discovery in TCM prescription databases. The prescription-herb information can be effectively extracted, and laws of prescription-herb and syndrome-treament can be mined.
6.Clinical efficacy observation on treatment of primary dysmenorrhea with ginger-partitioned moxibustion at Zigong (EX-CA 1)
Journal of Acupuncture and Tuina Science 2017;15(6):446-450
Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of ginger-partitioned moxibustion at Zigong (EX-CA 1) for primary dysmenorrhea. Methods: A total of 112 patients with primary dysmenorrhea were randomized into an observation group and a control group according to their visiting sequence, 56 cases in each group. Patients in the observation group received ginger-partitioned moxibustion at Zigong (EX-CA 1), while patients in the control group received oral intake of analgesic. For both groups, treatment started 1 week before menstruation and lasted for 3 menstrual cycles, continued by a 3-month follow-up visit, then the clinical efficacy was evaluated. Results: By the end of treatment, symptom score in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, showing a statistical significance (P<0.05). After 3 months of treatment, the value of prostaglandin F2a (PGF2α), systolic-to-diastolic peak velocity ratio (S/D), resistance index (RI) and pulsatility index (PI) in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group, showing statistical significances (all P<0.01).The recovery rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, showing a statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion: Ginger-partitioned moxibustion at Zigong (EX-CA 1) for primary dysmenorrhea is a combination of the merits of warming function of moxibustion, dissipating function of ginger and stimulation of acupoint, and is better than oral intake of analgesic.
7.The effects of enamel matrix proteins on the synthesis of alkaline phosphatase and type I collagen in osteoblasts
Journal of Practical Stomatology 1995;0(04):-
Objective:To study the effects of enamel matrix proteins (EMPs) on the biological characters of osteoblasts.Methods:MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts were cultured in vitro and exposed to EMPs at 300,400 and 500 ?g/ml.Enzyme kinetic method was used to assay alkaline phosphatase (ALP) synthesis and 3H-proline labelling combining collagenase digestion method was used to assay type I collagen synthesis.Results:The results manifested that ALP level in EMPs treated groups was higher than that in control group (P

It is unable to cultivate students' ability of application and innovation by the traditional teaching form in pharmaceutics for the pharmaceutics is fragmented and intersective with other disciplines. This paper analyzes the characteristics and shortcomings of traditional teaching methods of pharmaceutics. The flipped classroom is applied to pharmaceutics teaching with SPOC, world coffee and hacker. The results shows that the flipped classroom can effectively improve the motivation and learning efficiency of students, especially improve their self-study and innovation ability. It can realize the diversity of teaching evaluation.

Objective To investigate the effects of Oxytocin(OT) on hippocampal long-term potentiation(LTP) and FOS protein expression induced by peripheral stimulation.Methods Single stimulation pulses were delivered to the left sciatic nerves to evoke the field excitatory postsynaptic potentials (fEPSPs) in the right hippocampal CA1. Tetanic stimulation was used to induce hippocampal LTP. Different groups of rat were given NS,OT,Oxytocin antagonist-Atosiban + OT before tetanic stimulation,into lateral ventricle(LV) respectively. Expression of FOS protein was compared among the groups by histopathological and immunohistochemistry. Results Single stimulation evoked fEPSPs in hippocampal CA1,which average latency was (171.9?33.1)ms and average amplitude was (25.7?8.4)?V. Tetanic stimulation induced hippocampal LTP and increased the expression of FOS protein. Intracerebroventricular injection of OT inhibited hippocampal LTP and decreased the expression of FOS protein. This effect of OT was blocked by the pretreatment with Atosiban. Conclusion The results suggested that OT may play an inhibitory role in leaning and memory of rats and the effect is mediated by OT receptor.
