0.05). Comparing with 1/8 LD50 MDI group,all 1/16 LD50,1/32 LD50 MDI and the control group were significantly higher in testis coefficient (P

Objective To study the change of interleakin-18 (IL-18) in patients of pregnancy induced hypertension syndrome(PIH) and its correlation with endothelint-1 (ET-1). Methods Serum levels of IL-18 and plasma levels of ET-1 in 47 PIH patients and 30 normal pregnancy women were measured with ELISA and RSA respectively. Results (1)Serum IL-18 of PIH group (M=43.76 ng/L) was significantly higher than that of normal pregnancy group (M=37.975 ng/L) , H=42.845,P

AIM: To establish a novel method for the overall quality control of Fructus Gardeniae by HPLC digitized fingerprint and its normalization. METHODS: The chromatographic fingerprints were obtained by injecting 5 ?L of the sample solution each time on a Century SIL C_ 18 BDS column (20 cm?4.6 mm, 5 ?m) with the gradient elution solvent system composed of 1% acetate acid-water and 1% acetate acid- acetonitrile. The flow rate was 1.0 mL /min, the column temperature was maintained at (30?0.15)℃ and the detection wavelength was set at 265 nm. The chromatographic fingerprints were evaluated by the digitized parameters, such as the chromatographic fingerprint index (F), quantitative similarity, etc,. The influence of big peak on similarity was elaborated by direction cosines, and its cancellation was achieved by the qualitative similarity of peak area ratio. RESULTS: 35 co-possessing peaks were selected as the fingerprint peaks of Fructus Gardeniae by taking Geniposide peak as the reference peak. The HPLC digitized fingerprint and its normalization were implemented. CONCLUSION: This method with good precision and reproducibility can be useful in the quality control of Fructus Gardeniae.

Sixty patients with ulcerative colitis (UC),including 28 males and 32 females were enrolled in the study.Color Doppler ultrasonographic scans were performed and the disease activity was estimated base on the Sourtherland score index (DAI).On the sonography the colon with active inflammatory disease showed bowel wall thickening,alteration of layers structure or even discrimination and increased vascular signals.Using DAI as the gold standard,the sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value and accurate rate for ultrasonography in assessment of UC activity were 90.0％ (36/40),75.0％ ( 15/20),87.8％ (36/41),78.9％ (15/19),85.0％ (51/60),respectively.In conclusion,Color Doppler ultrasonography provides a convenient technique for assessment of bowel involvement and inflammatory activity in ulcerative colitis with high sensitivity and accuracy.

Objective To establish an assessment scale for hospital stroke patients with Delphi method,by using it to help the nurses evaluate patients' existing and potential problems,and to provide foundations for specific assessment on different patient groups.Methods The first-level indicators and second-level indicators were developed on the basis of the Omaha system.210 nursing records of hospital stroke patients were then combined with to form concrete items.Totally 22 nursing specialists were interviewed with two rounds in order to further collect the opinions and suggestions about the assessment scale.Results 4 first-level indicators,35 second-level indicators and a number of items were included in the assessment scale.Conclusions The assessment scale for hospital stroke patients established by Delphi method comprehensively shows the environmental,physical,mental and behavioral condition in hospital,and it could be used as a tool to assess the hospital stroke patients.

Objective To evaluate contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in diagnosis of small hepatocellular carcinoma (SHCC) ( ≤ 2. 0 cm) with liver cirrhosis after contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) examination. Methods Forty five patients with liver cirrhosis received CECT and CEUS examinations before operation or needle biopsy and the diagnosis was confirmed by pathological examination.CEUS and CECT findings of 51 liver space-occupying lesions from 45 patients were retrospectively analyzed.Results Among all 51 lesions detected CEUS and CECT found 49 and 35, respectively. The typical characteristics of SHCC were "fast-in and fast-out" and "fast-in and slow-out". The sensitivity of CEUS and CECT in diagnosis of SHCC was 88. 9% (32/36) and 69. 4 % (25/36) respectively ( x2 = 3. 02, P =0. 08);the diagnostic accuracy was 84. 3 % (43/51 ) and 56. 9% (29/51 ) respectively ( x2 = 1.46, P =0. 22). Among 16 lesions missed by CECT, 12 were detected by CEUS. Conclusions CEUS and CECT show the similar diagnostic rate for typical SHCC ,however, CEUS is more sensitive for atypical lesions. With high time resolution, CEUS have advantages for follow-up study of benign liver lesions.

0.05). The main toxicity reactions were myelosuppression,gastrointestinal reactions,peripheral neurotoxicity and most of the patients can suffer that. CONCLUSION:Docetaxel combined with oxaliplatin and capecitabine have good effect on advanced gastric cancer and are less toxic. It can be the main treatment way to cure advanced gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the proper inner control genes suitable for mRNA expression level comparison of aging rat tissues.Methods Real-time reverse transcription PCR was used to examine in aging rat tissues the expression level of G3pd(glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase),ACTB(?-actin),H3f3b(H3 histone,family 3B),Arbp(acidic ribosomal phosphoprotein P0)and 18S(18S ribosomal RNA).Results The most stably expressed housekeeping gene in aging rat kidney was ACTB,in heart and lung G3pd showed the minimum variation;Arbp expression was the most stable one in different tissues.Conclusion For aging rat intra-tissue mRNA normalization at least two housekeeping genes should be used: one is the ribosomal RNA gene 18S and another one is Arbp.

Objective To study the effect of cyclosporine combined with eleven acid testosterone on serum T helper cells in patients with chronic aplastic anemia.Methods A total of 86 patients with chronic aplastic anemia received treatment in our hospital were collected as the research objects,and divided into experimental group and control group,patients in the experimental group received eleven acid testosterone combined with cyclosporine therapy,patients in the control group received eleven acid testosterone therapy.Blood routine indexes,Th1,Th2,Th17 and Treg cells contents of the two groups before and after treatment were compared.Results Before treatment,hemoglobin content,leukocyte count,platelet count,peripheral blood Th1,Th2,Th17 and Treg cells contents of the two groups had no significant difference(P>0.05).After two courses of treatment,hemoglobin content,leukocyte count,platelet count of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group.After two courses and four courses of treatment,peripheral blood Th1 and Th17 contents of experimental group were significantly lower than those of the control group,Th2 and Treg contents were significantly higher than those of the control group.Conclusion Eleven acid testosterone combined with cyclosporine treatment could be more effective to stimulate hematopoiesis,regulate immune function and T lymphocyte subsets content,it′s an effective method for the treatment of chronic aplastic anemia.

Objective To investigate the optimum doses of combined chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide (CTX) and cisplatin (DDP).Methods 120 cases of ovarian cancer and malignant lymphoma were divided randomly into 6 groups.Drugs were administered to each group:CTX 500 mg/m2 + DDP 40 mg/m2,CTX 500 mg/m2 + DDP 50 mg/m2,CTX 500 mg/m2 + DDP 60 mg/m2,CTX 600 mg/m2 + DDP 40 mg/m2,CTX 600 mg/m2 + DDP 50 mg/m2,CTX 600 mg/m2 + DDP 60 mg/m2.Drugs were administered intravenously once a week for 2 consecutive weeks.Changes in the efficacy and adverse reaction were compared among the groups.Results There was no significant efficacy difference among the groups (P ＞ 0.05).Leukocyte inhibition rate (72.6 ％ and 79.3 ％,respectively) and damage to lymphocyte were maximal in the high-dose chemotherapy groups (CTX 500 mg/m2 + DDP 60 mg/m2,CTX 600 mg/m2 + DDP 60 mg/m2),and the levels of creatinine,blood urea nitrogen,alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in serum and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were reduced significantly,whereas the hemogram was within normal range in the lowdose chemotherapy group (CTX500 mg/m2 + DDP 40 mg/m2),and the frequencies of damage to renal function and hepatic function were low.Conclusion The optimum dose of combined chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide and cisplatin was CTX 500 mg/m2 and DDP 40 mg/m2.
