Objective Developing an index system to evaluate the community teaching bases of general practice, for the purpose of identifying and completing at least one demonstration teaching base for general practice in each city in 2010. Methods Initial building of the index system by means of Delphi method and experts interview, followed by selection of experts for consultation, statistical analysis on the results of letter inquiries, and rounded up by the establishment of the index system for evaluation in the end. Results The recovery rates of a two-round Delphi questionnaire response are 94.12% and 100.00%respectively. Expert's authority degrees of five indexes are all over 0.8, which suggests high expert's authority. The average coordination coefficient of two-round Delphi experts consultation is 0.262and 0.534 respectively, showing good experts coordination. In the end, the study established four first-class indexes, ten second-class indexes, 41 third-class indexes and five additional indexes. Conclusions The index system is established in view of the current development of community teaching bases. It focuses on evaluating teachers, the teaching process and base's function. The evaluation system provides reference for selecting demonstration community teaching bases of general practice.

OBJECTIVETo assess the association of coagulation factor V gene polymorphisms with unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA) among ethnic Han Chinese from Wenzhou area.

METHODSNinety-six patients with URSA and 103 females with a history of normal pregnancy were recruited. Genotypes of coagulation factor V gene were determined through target sequence capture and high-throughput sequencing. The results were confirmed with a MassARRAY system. Allelic and genotypic frequencies between the two groups were compared.

RESULTSNineteen single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs), except coagulation factor V Leiden, were identified in the two groups. The frequencies of rs9287090 allele A, rs1046712 allele T and rs1800594 allele G of the URSA group were lower than those of the control group (6.77% vs. 16.50%, 3.12% vs. 13.11%, 10.94% vs. 18.45%, respectively). After Bonferroni and false discovery rate correction, rs9287090 and rs1046712 were significantly associated with URSA (corrected P<0.05). Although genotypic distribution of rs9287090 and rs1046712 also differed between the two groups, the corrected P value showed no significance (corrected P>0.05). A complete linkage disequilibrium (r=1, D'=1) of rs6022 and rs6029 was observed for the haplotype block rs6022-rs6029-rs6028. The frequencies of rs6022 allele A and rs6029 allele T were higher in the URSA group with corrected insignificance (75.00% vs. 65.53%, corrected P>0.05). Furthermore, significantly more A-T-T haplotype was found in the URSA group (75.00% vs. 65.50%, OR=1.578, 95%CI:1.021-2.438, χ=4.248, P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe decreased rate of rs9287090 allele A, rs1046712 allele T, and rs1800594 allele G may contribute to the susceptibility to URSA among ethnic Han Chinese from Wenzhou area. The rs6022 allele A and rs6029 allele T may also predispose to URSA.

OBJECTIVE：To establish the HPLC fingerprints of ethanol extracts of Dendrobium nobile from different habitats ， and to study spectrum effect relationship of its anti-inflammatory effect. METHODS ：The ethanol extracts from 12 batches of D. nobile from different habitats （S1-S12）were prepared. The fingerprints of ethanol extracts from 12 batches of D. nobile were established by HPLC and TCM Fingerprint Similarity Evaluation System （version 2012）. Common peaks were identified and the similarity was evaluated. Using the contents of inflammatory factors （IL-4，IL-6）as anti-inflammatory indexes ，ELISA was used to investigate the effects of ethanol extracts from 12 batches of D. nobile on RAW 264.7 macrophages in inflammatory model induced by lipopolysaccharide. Grey correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between common peaks and anti-inflammatory indexes in the fingerprint of ethanol extract from D. nobile . RESULTS ：There were 18 common peaks in ethanol extracts from 12 batches of D. nobile ，and No. 12 peak was identified as dendrophenol. The similarity of each sample was 0.911-0.996. The content of IL- 4 in cell culture medium was significantly reduced by ethanol extracts of D. nobile S1-S12（P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）；the content of IL- 6 in cell culture was significantly reduced by ethanol extracts of D. nobile S1-S8，S10（P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Grey correlation analysis found that except for peaks 4 and 18，the correlation degree between the other common peaks and the content of IL- 4 was greater than 0.6，and the correlation degree between peaks 5 and 7 and the content of IL- 4 was greater than 0.8；except for peaks 9，14，4，3 and 18，the correlation degree between the other common peaks and the content of IL- 6 was greater than 0.6，and the correlation degree between peaks 1，12 and 13 and the content of IL- 6 was greater than 0.8. CONCLUSIONS ：HPLC fingerprints of ethanol extracts from 12 batches of D. nobile ； from different habitats have high similarity and good consistency in composition ； the chemical constituents represented by peaks 1，5，7，12（dendrophenol）and 13 may 769096783@qq.com be potential anti-inflammatory components of D. nobile .

OBJECTIVETo assess the association of human leukocyte antigen DQ gene polymorphisms with unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA) among ethnic Han Chinese from Wenzhou region.

METHODSFifty couples with URSA (URSA group) and 66 couples with normal pregnancy history (control group) were recruited. The alleles of HLA-DQA1 and HLA-DQB1 were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction with specific sequence primers (PCR-SSP) in all subjects. The frequency distribution of HLA-DQ alleles, odds ratios (OR) between each group and sharing of HLA-DQ alleles were calculated.

RESULTSThe frequency distribution of HLA-DQB1*03:03 allele in the females with URSA was significantly higher than that healthy females (21.00% vs. 9.85%, OR=2.433, 95%CI: 1.232-4.894, χ(2)=5.657, P<0.05). The HLA-DQB1*05:03 allele was present among the healthy females with a frequency of 3.03%, and was not detected among females with URSA. For both males and females, the HLA-DQB1*05:02 allele were only typed in control group with frequencies of 6.06% and 5.30%, respectively. The sharing of HLA-DQA1 alleles in couples with URSA was increased compared with the control group (70.27% vs. 44.64%, OR=2.931, 95%CI: 1.216-7.067, P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe increased sharing of HLA-DQA1 alleles may contribute to the susceptibility of URSA among ethnic Han Chinese from Wenzhou region. The allele of HLA-DQB1*03:03 in the females may be predisposing factor for URSA. However, the HLA-DQB1*05:02 allele in both gender and HLA-DQB1*05:03 allele in females may confer a protective effect.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Puerariae lobatae radix （PLR） and Anemarrhenae Rhizoma （AR） in preventing and treating Alzheimer’s disease （AD） and explore its potential mechanism of action by LC-MS serum metabolomics strategy. Methods The AD rat model was established by administering aluminum chloride （AlCl₃） and D-galactose （D-gal） for 20 weeks. The traditional Chinese medicine intervention group was given the PLR, AR, and PLR-AR extracts for 8 weeks by gavage. The model effect and efficacy were evaluated by Morris water maze test and biochemical indicators including SOD, NO, and MDA; Metabolomics research based on the UHPLC-Q/TOF-MS method was conducted, and relevant metabolic pathways were analyzed through the MetaboAnalyst online website. Results The learning and memory abilities of AD model rats were significantly decreased compared with the control group, and the levels of oxidative stress and lipid peroxides were significantly increased （P<0.05）, while the SOD content was decreased considerably （P<0.01）. The learning and memory abilities of AD model rats were improved, oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation levels were reversed, and serum SOD content was increased significantly after the intervention of PLR-AR, with better effects than single drugs. Through metabolomics, 70 differential metabolites were identified between the AD model group and the control group, mainly involving 10 pathways, including phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan biosynthesis, phenylalanine metabolism, and unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis, et.al. The intervention of PLR-AR could adjust 47 metabolites, with 20 metabolites showing significant differences （P<0.05）. The significantly adjusted metabolites involve 6 pathways, including phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan biosynthesis, et al. Conclusion The combination of PLR and AR could significantly improve the learning and memory abilities of AD rat models. The mechanism may be related to the improvement of oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation levels, the increase of serum SOD content, and the regulation of phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan biosynthesis pathways.
