Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture in treating functional dyspepsia. Method Sixty-eight patients with functional dyspepsia were randomized into an acupuncture group and a control group. The acupuncture group was intervened by matrix needling, once a day, 8 d as a course, with a 2-day interval between two courses, for successive 4 weeks. The control group was prescribed with Motilium at 10 mg, 3 times a day, for successive 4 weeks. Result The total effective rate was 91.4% in the acupuncture group versus 87.9% in the control group, and the difference was statistically insignificant (P>0.05); there was a significant difference in abdominal pain score between the two groups (P<0.05), indicating that the acupuncture group should be superior to the control in releasing abdominal pain. Conclusion The overall efficacies in treating functional dyspepsia are equivalent between the acupuncture group and control group, but the acupuncture group is better than the control in releasing pain. Therefore, compared to medicine, acupuncture has advantage in treating functional dyspepsia.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of recombinant human interleukin-11 (rhIL-11) on the vaginal epithelium mitosis of estrone periodical mice and the exprssion of PCNA.Methods The vaginal epithelium mitosis of estrone periodical mice was used as the epidermis hyperplasia model, rhIL-11 action in regulating the epidermis hyperplasia was observed and the expression of PCNA was detected by immunohistochemistry.Results The rhIL-11 significantly inhibited the mitosis of mouse vaginal epithelium, decreased the expression of PCNA ( P <0.01).Conclusion The rhIL-11 has good efficacy in treating the epidermis hyperplasia of psoriasis by inhibiting the mitosis of epithelium and decreasing the expression of PCNA.

Objective]To explore the relationship between Yin-wei theory and clinical practice ,and to discuss how to apply Yin-wei theory to solve practical problems in clinical situation.[Methods]We start from the Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) classics Nei Jing(the Canon of Internal Medicine) and Nan Jing(Canon On Eighty-One Difficult Issues),combined with Zhang Zhongjing’s application of Guizhi decoction in his book“Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases”to explore the cause and effect of Yin-wei theory and to comprehensively analyze its underlying thought .[Results]We found that Guizhi decoction in the“Treatise on Febrile Diseases”was not only applied in the chapter Taiyang disease,but also involved in other four chapters of Shaoyin disease and the chapter of cholera disease.In“Synopsis of Golden Chamber”,Guizhi decoction was used to treat vomitus gravidarum and affection by cold after delivery,while in Zhongjing’s practice,Guizhi decoction derived formula was widely used in the treatment of consumptive internal injuries miscellaneous disease,indicating that many internal injuries miscellaneous diseases were closely related to external infection .Tonic medicines were rarely seen alone in classical consumptive disease treatment.[Conclusion]Practice has proven that deep learning and understanding of Yin-wei theory has great guiding significance for us to put knowledge in TCM classic theories into clinical practice .Yin-wei theory opens an important window to learn“Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases”and trains clinical thinking,which is worth further discussion.

Objective To observe the expression levels of 8 - hydroxy-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in patients with different glucose metabolism and its relationship with islet dysfunction.Methods Based on the 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), the patients were divided into 3 groups: normal glucose tolerance (NGT) group (30 patients), isolated impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) group (28 patients), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) group (28 patients), and 30 healthy subjects were selected as the healthy control group (healthy control, HC) . The triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol (TC), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting blood glucose (FBG), insulin resistance index, insulin and c-peptide area under the curve (AUC) were detected, and compared between groups, and the correlation between 8-OHdG and these indexes was analyzed. Results There was no difference in FBG values between NGT group and HC group, the indicators of patients in other groups were higher than HC group,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). The values of FBG, 8-OHdG, HbA1C and HOMA-IR of patients in IGT group were higher than NGT group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01) . The values of FBG ,8-OHdG, HbA1C and HOMA-IR in T2DM group were higher than IGT group. There were no differences in insulin AUC between NGT group, IGT group and T2DM group (P> 0.05) . 8-OHdG was correlated with FBG, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, C peptide AUC, insulin AUC, and the correlation coefficients were 0.704, 0.713, 0.665, 0.825 and 0.653, respectively, the differences were statistically significant. Conclusions 8-OHdG levels can reflect the status of islet dysfunction,and can be used as an indicator of islet function for diabetic patients.

Objective To observe the pathogens and drug-resistance of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) patients in emergency intensive care unit (EICU) for rational antibiotic therapy and the prevention of VAP. Method The sputum culture results and drug-resistance of pathogens of VAP patients in EICU from 2007 to 2009 were collected. Results One hundred and two mechanical ventilation patients were selected. VAP was occurred in 70 patients (68.6%). One hundred and fifty-seven pathogens had been examined,including 92 Gram-negative bacilli (58.6%),35 Gram-positive cocci (22.3%) and 30 fungus (19.1%). Pseudomonas aeruginosa and meticillin-resistant-staphylococcus aureus was 22 strains (14.0%)respectively, stenotrop homonas maltophilia was 21 strains (13.4%) and acinetobacter baumanii was 17 strains (10.8%). Fifty-nine patients (84.3%) had suffered from multiple pathogen infection, with 31 cases having 2 pathogens and 28 cases having 3 pathogens. Conclusions Pseudomonas aeruginosaa,methicillinresistant staphylococcus, stenotrophomonas maltophilia and acinetobacter baumanii are main pathogens of VAP in EICU patients,and candida albicans is still the main pathogens in fungal infection. The rate of multiple pathogen infection is very high, and the problem of drug-resistance is very severe.

Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a new member of renin-angiotensin system found recently. It counterbalances the effects of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), hydrolyzes angiotensin Ⅱ to generate angiotensin-(1-7) and hydrolyzes angiotensin Ⅰ to produce angiotensin-(1-9). Angiotensin-(1-9) can be hydrolyzed by ACE to form angiotensin-(1-7), and angiotensin-(1-7) counteracts the effects of angiotensin Ⅱ in many aspects. Bradykinin or atrial natriuretic factor or substance P are not the substrates of ACE2, and ACE2 hydrolyzes the metabolites of bradykinin such as des-Arg~9-BK and des-Arg~(10)-kallidin, and also the dynorphin A, one of the opium peptides. ACE2 is not inhibited by angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI). Recent studies demonstrate that ACE2 is a functional receptor of SARS coronavirus. To elucidate the mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases and other disease such as SARS, further investigations in ACE2 are needed.
