Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma are complex inflammatory diseases with airway obstruction as the main characteristics, and have become common respiratory diseases that seriously affect human health. Compared with the clinical use of PDE3 or PDE4 inhibitors alone, dual PDE3/4 inhibitors have synergistic anti-inflammatory and bronchodilator effects, and have attracted widespread attention in recent years. This article reviews the representative research results of dual PDE3/4 inhibitors currently in the preclinical and clinical research stages, summarizing their latest progress and their potential for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma.

Objective To provide anatomical evidence for a safe osteotomy line and direction in periacetabular osteotomy.Methods The pelvic CT images of 18 adults were obtained.With the help of Mimics software,three-dimensional CT reconstruction was performed,and periacetabular osteotomy was simulated.The length of osteotomy lines on the ilium,ischium and iliac columna posterior was measured,and the relationship between osteotomy lines and anatomic landmarks was explored. Results The length of osteotomy lines on the ilium,ischium and iliac columna posterior was(50.96?7.09) mm,(36.46?5.92)mm and(55.28?6.42) mm,respectively.The angles between the osteotomy line on the ilium and that on the iliac columna posterior,between the osteotomy line on the ischium and that on the iliac columna posterior,and between the osteotomy line on the iliac columna posterior and quadrilateral surface were 120.21??5.96?,115.49??6.46? and 60.31??4.96?,respectively.And the real periacetabular osteotomy has been performed on the pelvic specimens for verification.The vertical distances between the ending point of osteotomy line on the ilium and iliopectineal line,between osteotomy line on the ischium and iliopectineal line,and between the osteotomy line on the iliac columna posterior and greater sciatic notch were(11.98?5.26) mm,(45.08?8.59) mm and(18.52?6.49) mm,respectively. Conclusion The length and angles of osteotomy lines in periacetabular osteotomy can be well measured by three-dimensional reconstruction,and the relationship between the osteotomy lines and anatomic landmarks can also be well displayed,which provides anatomical data for the clinical application of periacetabular osteotomy.

Calculus Bovis is a valuable traditional Chinese medicine and has been used for more than two thousand years in clinic with the effects of puring heart, sweeping phlegm, resuscitation, extinguishing wind and detoxification. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, modern methods have been utilized by traditional Chinese medicine researchers in the resource identification, chemical components, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, pharmacy, clinical application, etc. It is their continually exploration that makes significant achievements for the modern research of Calculus Bovis. This article statistically analysed the literatures from 1949 to December 2015 in Pubmed, CNKI, Wanfang, Vip database etc. to review Calculus Bovis and its compound formulas, as well as its substitutes, quality control, formulation study, compound prescription, pharmacological mechanism and clinical research. The aim of this article is to provide a valuable reference for future developments and studies of Calculus Bovis.

Objective　To evaluate low magnetic field MRI findings for diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma.Methods　Conventional MRI of surgical-patholo-gically confimed bronchogenic carcioma(132 cases)were analysed.Results　The carcinomatous masses have generally middle signal intensity with homogeneous appearance on T1W images,and high signal intensity with heterogenous appearance on T2W images.MRI is an efficient modality to show the hilar and mediastinal lymph node metastases,pleural effusions and carcinmatous invasions of the great vessel,the bronchus,the pleura,the chest wall,and pericardium.It is possible to distinguish mass from obstuctive lesion on MRI.Conclusion　Accrding to the mentioned sign and the morphological features of the carcinomatous masses,primary diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma can be made on MRI.

False and negative information has brought forth serious impacts on doctor-patient relationship in the new media era as a result of “Broken window effect”and “Butterfly effect”.The underlying reasons are herd mentality,the public’s need to vent their discontent,the subjectivity of information distribution on the Internet and lack of proper supervision and punishment mechanism.Medical Institutions should pay special attention to the new media,leveraging it to improve doctor-patient relationship by making official voice,guiding public opinion,solving problems,and providing comfortable social environment and rational public opinion environment on the Internet.

Objective To investigate the effect of IL-1 7A on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced neuroinflammation and fear conditioning test.Methods Among 70 male SD rats aged 18 months, firstly,thirty rats were randomly divided into five groups:control group(group A),LPS 6 h group (group B),12 h group(group C),24 h group(group D),48 h group(group E).Group A were injected intraperitoneally with normal saline and groups B,C,D and E were injected with LPS 500 μg/kg.Ani-mals of groups A,B,C,D and E were killed respectively after LPS injection and their hippoeampus tis-sue was detected for the concentration of IL-1 7A.Secondly,forty rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:control group(group O),IL-1 7A antibody group(group P),LPS group (group Q),IL-1 7A antibody+LPS group(group R).Group P and group R were injected intracerebroventricularly with IL-1 7A antibodies 3 μl (200 μg/μl),groups O and Q were injected equal volume of normal saline.30 min later,groups Q and R were injected intraperitoneally with LPS 500 μg/kg,groups O and P were in-jected equal volume of normal saline.24 h later,contextual fear conditioning test was performed. Then,all animals were killed and their hippocampus tissue would be detected for the concentration of TNF-αand IL-6,as well as the expression of Iba1-positive cells.Results The concentration of IL-1 7A of groups B,C,D and E increased significantly compared with group A (P <0.01 ),there was no difference between groups E and A.The freezing time of groups Q and R was significantly shortened than that in group O(P <0.01 or P <0.05 ),the freezing time of group R was significantly longer than that in group Q(P <0.01).The concentration of TNF-αand IL-6 of groups Q and R was obvi-ously higher than group O(P <0.01 ),the concentration of TNF-α and IL-6 of group R lower than group Q(P <0.01).The expression of Iba1-positive cells in hippocampal area CA1 of groups Q and R was obviously increased compared with group O(P <0.01).Compared with group Q,the expression of Iba1-positive cells in hippocampal area CA1 of group R were obviously decreased (P < 0.05 ). Conclusion IL-1 7A is implicated in the early stage of LPS-induced neuroinflammation and the chan-ging of freezing time in contextual fear conditioning in aged rats.

Objective:To obtain a large amount of erythromycin B and to investigate the activity site in eryK. Methods:The key sequence of the BC loop region in eryK gene was knocked out and the eryK gene with 101 bp deleted was amplified by overlapping PCR,and cloned into vector pWHM3 to construct recombinant plasmid. The Saccharopolyspora erythraea mutant AK17 was constructed through chromosomal homologous recombination technique.Results and Conclusions:The S.erythraea mutant AK17 was constructed. The results of TCL and MS analysis showed that the major fermentation product of AK17 is erythromycin B.
