AIM: To establish a standard for quality control of Xinfang Biyan Capsule(Radix Saponikovae, Radix Angelicae Dahuricae, Radix Scutellariae, etc.). METHODS: TLC and HPLC were used. RESULTS: Flos Magnoliae, Radix Saponikovae, Flos Chrysanthemi, Radix Bupleuri in the capsule could be identified by TLC, and baicalin content in the capsule could be measured by RP-HPLC with a linear relatioship at a range of 0.243 ?g- 2.43 ?g(r= 0.999 8 ). The average recovery was 98.15% and RSD was 0.15% . CONCLUSION: The methods are accurate and can be used for the quality control of Xinfang Biyan Capsules.

Objective • To survey the menopausal symptoms related quality of life in patients with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy and its determinants, which provides theoretical basis on intervention. Methods • In this cross-sectional study, a questionnaire survey was conducted on 484 breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy in 9 hospitals nationwide recruited by convenience sampling approach, from July 2016 to December 2017. Descriptive statistics, ANOVA, Spearman correlation and multiple linear regression analyses were preformed to explore the risk factors of the menopausal symptoms related quality of life. Results • The mean score of the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS) was 9.580±6.174 with 75.8% larger than 4, which indicated poor quality of life. One-Way ANOVA results showed the effect of marital status, monthly income, and the change of menstrual status on the MRS score were statistically significant. Spearman correlation results showed that the MRS score was positive correlated with anxiety and depression score and chemotherapy symptoms score, but negative correlated with social support score. Three of the nine variables, chemotherapy symptoms, anxiety, and information and emotional support, were selected by the multiple linear stepwise regression analysis, and could explain 43.0% of total variance (P<0.01). Conclusion • Most breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy have poor menopausal symptoms related quality of life. The main determinants were chemotherapy symptoms, anxiety, and information and emotional support. Informational and emotional support should be actively provided and mental health interventions should be strengthened, which could effectively improve their quality of life.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR) for Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) in children with MP pneumonia(MPP).Methods From Jun.2008 to Jan.2009,153 cases hospitalized with pneumonia were enrolled,and 30 cases without respiratory infection were enrolled as control group.Their respiratory secretion (including nasopharyngeal secretion,sputum,bronchialalveolar lavage fluid or pharyngeal swab) samples were collected for fluorescent quantitative PCR for MP.And their single or paired serums were collected for specific MP antibody detection.Results There were 123 cases confirmed with MPP by serology,among whom 114 cases were MP PCR positive.The quantitation of MP DNA was among 1.20?106-3.66?1010 gene copys/L. There were 30 cases with pneumonia negative with MP by the paired serum serology,among whom 2 cases were MP PCR positive,and the quantitation of MP DNA was (1.08-3.02)?107gene copys/L.All cases of control group were MP PCR negative.During the first and second weeks of the MPP onset,the sensitivity of MP-IgM from the first single blood samples were 66.7% and 83.9%,respectively.While the sensitivity and specificity of MP PCR were 92.7% and 93.3%,respectively.From the third week of the disease onset,the sensitivity of MP-IgM from the first single blood samples increased to 90.9%-100%.The clinical manifestations of MPP were nonspecific.Conclusions PCR is superior to serology for early diagnosis on MP infection.Combination of the 2 methods may be helpful to early and accurate diagnosis on MP infection.

Objective To study the changes of serum endotheline(ET),D-dimer and fibrinogen(Fbg) in infants with pneumonia complicated with heart failure(HF) and explore the changes of blood coagulation,fibrinolysis,and endothelial cell function.Methods Eighty patients with infant pneumonia complicated with HF and 20 controls were studied.Serum ET,D-dimer,Fbg,activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),prothrombin time(PT) and thrombin time(TT) were measured.Results ET,D-dimer,Fbg,APTT in every group had differences.With the disease deteriorating,the values of ET,D-dimer,Fbg increased,but the values of APTT decresed gradually.There were positive relations between ET and D-dimer(r=0.42 P

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum adiponectin and metabolic syndrome(MS) in children and adolescents with obesity and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD).Methods Four elementary schools and 4 middle schools were selected from Haidian district in Beijing with representative cluster sampling.Two hundred and eighty obese children(obese group),65 obese children with NAFLD(NAFLD group) and 264 normal weight children(healthy control group) aged 7 to 18 years were recruited from the 8 schools with uncompletely randomized sampling.Data including questionnaire,anthropometric measurements,B type ultrasonographic examination for liver were collected and fasting blood laboratory assay were determined.Variables including triglyceride(TG),adiponectin,alanine aminotransferase(ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST) were skewed distribution and natural logarithmical transformations were performed.Chi-square test for category and multiple binary Logistic regression analysis were used to statistical analysis.Results Body mass index(BMI) and waist circumference(WC) in obese group and NAFLD group were higher than those in healthy control group.All the chi-square tests for trend among the 3 groups were statistically significant(P

Nanoparticle delivery systems have good application prospects in the field of precision therapy, but the preparation process of nanomaterial has problems such as short in vivo circulation time, easy recognition, and clearance by the immune system in the body. In recent years, biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems mediated by natural cell membranes have become a research hotspot to address these issues. The natural membrane biomimetic nanoparticle delivery system cleverly integrates the advantages of natural biofilm "autologous" and "artificial" functional carriers by using endogenous cell membranes to modify the surface of nanocarriers, endowing them with characteristics such as tumor targeting, low immunogenicity, and long blood circulation. Currently, biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems have been used in the treatment of malignant tumors, cardiovascular diseases, bacterial infections, and other diseases. This paper analyzes the development status and current research hotspots of natural cell membrane camouflaged biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems mainly reviews the latest research progress of red blood cell membrane camouflaged biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems in the field of disease treatment in recent years. It focuses on exploring the advantages, future development prospects, and limitations of biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems based on red blood cell membrane camouflage in improving drug delivery, to provide a reference for the in-depth research and development of this system.

[Objective] To investigate the expression of NF-κB and IL-lra in gastric cancer, and to explore their correlation with the clinicopathological parameters and prognosis of gastric cancer (GC). [Methods] Expression of NF-κB and IL-1ra was detected by immunohistochemistry in tissue microarry of 359 cases of GC. [Results] The expression rates of NF-κB in the patients with metastasis of lymph node, TNM Ⅲ-Ⅳ stage, and poorly differentiated of histology were 80.2%, 80.0%, and 79.2%, respectively. The expression rates of IL-1ra in the patients with tumor size ≤3 cm, early stage, non-metastasis of lymph node, and TNM Ⅰ-Ⅱ stage were 61.7%, 75.0%, 66.4%, and 61.9%, respectively. The 5-year survival rate of the cases with non-expressed NF-κB was statistically higher than that of the cases with expressed NF-κB(P=0.036). The 5-year survival rate of the patients with negative expression of NF-κB and positive expression of IL-1ra was statistically higher than the others (P=0.021). [Conclusions] NF-κB is the adverse predictors of prognosis of gastric cancer. IL-1ra maybe play a protective role in early gastric cancer stage, but it is necessary to study deeply and get more evidences.
