5.Study of therapeutic drugs on molecular targets in rheumatoid arthritis
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2003;0(11):-
There are many therapeutic drugs for rheumatoid arthritis(RA) treatment,but the pathogenesis of RA have not been fully understood,therefore no curable drug has been found.With increasing knowledge of the inflammatory process,especially in signaling,some drugs modifying disease progress and interfering signaling pathways have been studied.Cytokine inhibitors such as tumor necrosis factor-blocking agents and IL-1 receptor antagonist in clinical trials and in practice have resulted in dramatic improvement in RA disease control.Important molecular mechanisms of actions on total glucosides of paeony(TGP) and Glucosides of Chaenomeles speciosa(GCS) were showed to modulate G protein-AC-cAMP and Ras-MAPKs signaling pathways and to inhibit synoviacytes proliferation.This review focuses on agents which target various cytokines,other inflammatory mediators,antigen of cells,and signaling pathways.

7.Clinical characteristics and treatment of the infection of helicobacter pylori in gastric stump
Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2008;15(6):907-908
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and the treatment of the infection of heli-eobacter pylori in gastric stump. Methods The clinical data of 210 patients who were examined by gastroscopy for gastric stump and 200 randomly selected patients who had no history of operation due to gastrointestinal diseases and received gastroscopy and Hp detections were retrospectively analyzed. Results The Hp infective rate in gastric stump was 26.2 %, and the Hp infective rates had no significant difference among different operative causes. The Hp positive rate after Billroth-Ⅰ operation was obviously higher than that after Billroth-Ⅱ type operation;the Hp posi-tive rate in the patients with bile regurgitation was lower than that in the patients without bile regurgitation. The Hp infective rate became lower as the time after subtotal gastrectomy prolonged. The clearance rate of anti-Hp treatment was 87.3 %. Conclusion The Hp infective rate in gastric stump is lower, but the Hp lesion in gastric stump ks ag-gravated. The anti-Hp therapeutic program which is commonly used at present plus gastric mucosa protectant and gastric motive power drugs are suitable for treating Hp infection in gastric stump, and have definite value in clinical application.

Shanghai Journal of Acupuncture and Moxibustion 2015;(9):841-842
Objective To observe the change of Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and satisfaction with treatment in preventing remissive migraine by puncturing Taiyang (EX-HN 5) at different depths. Methods Forty eligible migraine patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 20 in each group. The treatment group was intervened by deep needling at Taiyang (EX-HN 5) as the predominant treatment, while the control group was by superficial needling at Taiyang (EX-HN 5) as the predominant treatment. The VAS score and satisfaction degree with treatment were evaluated before and after treatment. Results The VAS score was significantly changed after intervention in the treatment group (P<0.01). After intervention, there was a significant difference in comparing the VAS score between the two groups (P<0.01). The satisfaction rate was 100.0% in the treatment group versus 85.0% in the control group, and the difference was statistically insignificant (P>0.05). Conclusions Compared to superficial needling at Taiyang (EX-HN 5), deep needling at Taiyang (EX-HN 5) can significantly reduce the headache degree..
