OBJECTIVE： To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of hydrotalcite combined with omeprazole for gastric ulcer， and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS： Retrieved from PubMed， Embase， Medline， the Cochrane library， CNKI， VIP and Wanfang database， randomized controlled trials （RCTs） about hydrotalcite combined with omeprazole （trial group） versus omeprazole alone （control group） for gastric ulcer during the database establishment to Aug. 2018. After data extraction of included literatures met inclusion criteria， and quality evaluation with Cochrane evaluator manual 5.0.1， Meta-analysis was performed for response rate， the incidence of ADR， recurrence rate of gastric ulcer bleeding， needed time of clinical symptom improvement and hospitalization stays by using Rev Man 5.3 statistical software. RESULTS： A total of 16 RCTs， involving 1 802 patients were included. The results of Meta-analysis showed that response rate [RR＝1.24， 95％CI（1.19，1.29）， P＜0.001] of trial group was significantly higher than that of control group； recurrence rate of gastric ulcer [RR＝0.27，95％CI（0.17，0.45），P＜0.001]， clinical symptom improvement time [MD＝－2.04，95％CI（－2.25，       －1.83），P＜0.001] and hospitalization time [MD＝－4.25，95％CI（－4.55，－3.95），P＜0.001] of trial group were significantly lower or shorter than those of control group， with statistical significance. There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR [RR＝0.68，95％CI（0.46，1.02），P＝0.06] between 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS： Compared with omeprazole alone， hydrotalcite combined with omeprazole for gastric ulcer can obviously increase the clinical response rate， decrease the recurrence rate of gastric ulcer and shorten the needed time of clinical symptom improvement and hospitalization time， but do not increase the incidence of ADR.

OBJECTIVE： To systematically review therapeutic efficacy and safety of mirtazapine combined with selective calcium channel blocker （SCCB） in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome （IBS）， and provide evidence-based reference for clinical medication. METHODS： Retrieved from the Cochrane Library， PubMed， Embase， Medline， CNKI， VIP and Wanfang database， randomized controlled trials （RCTs） about mirtazapine combined with SCCB （trial group） versus SCCB （control group） for IBS were collected. After literature screening and data extraction， quality evaluation was performed by using Cochrane system evaluator manual 5.1.0 recommend bias risk evaluation tool. Meta-analysis was performed by using Stata 14.0 software. RESULTS： A total of 14 RCTs involving 1 005 patients were included. The results of Meta-analysis showed that the total response rate [RR＝1.34，95％CI（1.25，1.44），P＜0.001]，neuropeptide-Y level after treatment [SMD＝0.77，95％CI（0.49，1.05），P＜0.001]， response rate of abdominal pain therapy [RR＝1.32，95％CI（1.06，1.66），P＝0.014] and response rate of treatment for abnormal stool characteristics [RR＝1.75，95％CI（1.36，2.27）， P＜0.001] were significantly higher than control group； the scores of depression scale after treatment [SMD＝－1.87， 95％CI （－2.35， －1.39）， P＜0.001]， anxiety scale after treatment [SMD＝－2.25， 95％CI （－3.35， －1.15）， P＜0.001]， abdominal pain symptom score after treatment [SMD＝－7.41， 95％CI  （－8.30，－6.51）， P＜0.001]， diarrhea symptom score after treatment [SMD＝－6.39， 95％CI （－7.96，－4.81）， P＜0.001] were significantly lower than those of the control group. There were no statistical significance in response rate of abdominal distension therapy [RR＝1.07，95％CI（0.90，1.28），P＝0.421] and response rate of abnormal defecation therapy [RR＝1.05，95％CI（0.88，1.26），P＝0.588]， the incidence of abdominal pain [RR＝0.45，95％CI（0.11，1.97）， P＝0.291] and exhaustion [RR＝5.00，95％CI（0.60，41.79），P＝0.137] between 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS： Mirtazapine combined with SCCB can significantly improve therapeutic efficacy of IBS patients， promote clinical symptoms， but do not increase the occurrence of ADR as abdominal pain and exhaustion.

OBJECTIVE：To explore the metabolic charact eristics of Miao medicine Laportea bulbifera extract in isolated human intestinal flora. METHODS ：L. bulbifera was extracted with 70％ ethanol reflux extraction. After concentration，extraction with n-butanol and drying ，L. bulbifera extract was obtained. Taking 0.05 g/mL L. bulbifera extract 1 mL mixed with isolated human intestinal flora fluid 10 mL and cultured for 36 h in anaerobic environment （setting up blank control without drugs or human intestinal bacterial solution ），so as to simulate the metabolic process of the extract in human intestine. The metabolites were detected by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS. The determination was performed on Agilent Eclipse Plus C 18 RRHD column with mobile phase consisted of 0.01％ formic acid water solution- 0.01％ formic acid acetonitrile solution （gradient eluetion ）at the flow rate of 0.25 mL/min. The column temperature was set at 40 ℃，and the sample size was 1 µL. ESI detection was adopted and scanned by negative ion mode （ESI－）；the capillary voltage was 4.5 kV，the ion source temperature was 120 ℃，the collision energy was 15-32 V，and the scanning range was m/z 50-1 000. The “Strip”module of MassLynx V 4.1 software was used to analyze the differential chromatograms between the reaction solution and the blank control of L. bulbifera extract. Mass spectrum data and UNIFI so ftware were used to predict relative molecular weight and formula ；based on the information of substance control and related literature reports ， the structure and biotransformation pathway of L. bulbifera metabolites in isolated human intestinal flora were predicted and analyzed. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS ： A total of 3 prototype ： products（rutin，quercetin，kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside）and 22metabolites （mainly the metabolites of quercetin ，mono- caffeoylquinic acid ，isoquercitrin，etc.） were detected after metabolized in isolated human intestinal flora. Itsbiotransformation pathway is phase Ⅰ reaction，which mainly consisted of reduction ，oxidation and hydrolysis.

BACKGROUND: Long-term remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has been proven to be beneficial in multiple diseases, such as cerebral and cardiovascular diseases. However, the hyperacute and acute effects of a single RIC stimulus are still not clear. Quantitative proteomic analyses of plasma proteins following RIC application have been conducted in preclinical and clinical studies but exhibit high heterogeneity in results due to wide variations in experimental setups and sampling procedures. Hence, this study aimed to explore the immediate effects of RIC on plasma proteome in healthy young adults to exclude confounding factors of disease entity, such as medications and gender. METHODS: Young healthy male participants were enrolled after a systematic physical examination and 6-month lifestyle observation. Individual RIC sessions included five cycles of alternative ischemia and reperfusion, each lasting for 5 min in bilateral forearms. Blood samples were collected at baseline, 5 min after RIC, and 2 h after RIC, and then samples were processed for proteomic analysis using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method. RESULTS: Proteins related to lipid metabolism (e.g., Apolipoprotein F), coagulation factors (hepatocyte growth factor activator preproprotein), members of complement cascades (mannan-binding lectin serine protease 1 isoform 2 precursor), and inflammatory responses (carboxypeptidase N catalytic chain precursor) were differentially altered at their serum levels following the RIC intervention. The most enriched pathways were protein glycosylation and complement/coagulation cascades. CONCLUSIONS One-time RIC stimulus may induce instant cellular responses like anti-inflammation, coagulation, and fibrinolysis balancing, and lipid metabolism regulation which are protective in different perspectives. Protective effects of single RIC in hyperacute and acute phases may be exploited in clinical emergency settings due to apparently beneficial alterations in plasma proteome profile. Furthermore, the beneficial effects of long-term (repeated) RIC interventions in preventing chronic cardiovascular diseases among general populations can also be expected based on our study findings.
