Objective To investigate the clinical effect ofFuzheng-Shugan decoction on the treatment of patients with the treatment nodule.Methods A total of 80 patients with thyroid nodule from Jan.2014 to Dec.2015, divided into two groups. The efficacy, thyroid stimulating hormone, high risk factors, the maximum diameter and volume of thyroid nodules were observed.Results The effective rate of observation group was significantly higher than of the control group (90.00%vs.27.50%,χ2=32.237,P=0.000). The shortness of breath (1.62 ± 0.86vs. 4.35 ± 1.13,t=12.159), foreign body sensation (2.53 ± 0.62vs. 4.23 ± 0.56,t=12.289), irritability (1.56 ± 0.53vs. 3.52 ± 1.25,t=9.130), sweating (1.85 ± 0.62vs.4.23 ± 0.56,t=18.017), tongue (1.58 ± 0.93vs. 3.71 ± 1.25,t=8.646) and neck pain (0.82 ± 0.35vs. 3.92 ± 0.65,t=26.558) in the obversation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The thyroid stimulating hormone levels in the observation group (1.05 ± 0.21 mIU/Lvs. 2.16 ± 0.71 mIU/L,t=9.482), were significantly lower (P<0.05).

Modern Clinical Nursing 2013;(10):16-19
Objective To explore the sub-health and TCM physical constitution of stroke patients’families.Method Four hundred and twelve family members of stroke patients hospitalized during September 2001 to May 2013 were involved in the survey by filling out TCM physical constitution scale(TCMPC)and the sub-health self-rating scale(SSS)for the purpose of investigating the sub-health and conditions of TCM physical constitution.Results Of all the patients,189 were in sub-health,accounting for 45.87%. There were 7 main clinical symptoms related to sub-health,including poor sleep,less activeness,proneness to upsets and irritation, memory loss,depression,tension in interpersonal relations and appetite loss,with the incidences ranging from 64.55%to 48.15%. In TCM,51.85%of the family members were balanced in physical constitution,10.58%of them had Yang-deficiency constitution, 14.29%of them had Yin-deficiency,23.28%of them other kind of constitution.Conclusions The family members of stroke patients have a high rate of sub-health.The members in sub-health hold a balanced constitution,Yang-deficiency or Yin deficiency.In order to eliminate their sub-health,improving the quality of care for patients with stroke,we should guide the families of stroke patients to develop good living habits,strengthen the TCM mental nursing,help them to establish a good social support system.

Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 1994;0(07):-
Object To prepare Panax notoginseng saponin (PNS) liposomes and investigate their characterization of pharmaceutics and pulmonary pharmacokinetics in rats. Methods The film-disperion method was used to prepare PNS liposomes by investigating its form, vesicle size, entrapping efficiency and stability. The study of pulmonary pharmacokinetics in rats was carried out by pulmonary instillation. Results The entrapment of PNS liposomes was 78.50%. The mean vesicle size was 1.5 ?m with uniform externality. The drug leakage from PNS liposomes was slow. Low temperature was required for its storage. The pulmonary pharmacokinetics parameters were as follows: T 1/2 ?=7.00 h, T 1/2 ?=27.72 h, AUC= 2 218.9 ?g?h/mL, the absolute bioavailability was 70.14%. Conclusion PNS liposomes with high entrapment and stability can prolong its circulation in blood and improve the PNS bioavailability via lung approach.

Chinese Traditional Patent Medicine 1992;0(05):-
AIM: To study the preparation and physiological compatibility of pulmonary administration with Saponius of Panax Notoginseng (PNS) liposomes. METHODS: PNS liposomes was prepared by thin film dispersion method. The prefered formulation was determined by factorial design. Ciliary movement in situtoad palate model and the changes of pulmonary edema index and pathology of lungs in rats were investigated to evaluate the physiological compatibility of PNS liposomes. RESULTS: PNS liposomes were proved to be large unilamellar vesicle (LUV) liposomes with spherical shape .The liposomes composed of PC and Ch has a high PNS capture efficiency of 78.5% ?2.15% . The mean vesicle size of liposomes were 1546.5nm ?321.4nm which were quite homogeneous in size distribution. The lasting time of ciliary movement after the rinsing of PNS liposomes was the 92.14% of the effect of PBS buffer. The pulmonary edema index and pathological changes of lung tissue in PNS liposomes group were significantly different from those in PNS solution group and close to those in PBS buffer group. CONCLUSION: PNS liposomes has good physiological compatibility with promising market development and application.
9.Progress in molecular targeting therapy for gastrointestinal stromal tumors
Chinese Journal of Cancer Biotherapy 2019;26(3):253-259
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common malignant tumor of abdominal soft tissue. It originates from Cahal (Cajal) interstitial cells or common precursor cells, and is driven by the mutated KIT gene or platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRa) gene, all expressing type Ⅲ tyrosine kinase receptors. Imatinib mesylate, a tyrosine kinase receptor inhibitor, has been used for the standard treatment of advanced GIST, which has achieved remarkable results. Thus, GIST has become the most successful example of target therapy for solid tumors. In the context of the era of precision medicine, with the deepening in research of GISTs molecular biology,the molecular targeted treatment of GISTs has obtained a clear venation from the first-line, second-line and third-line of the advanced stage to the postoperative auxiliary and preoperative treatment, providing significant survival benefits for GISTs patients. This article systematically and comprehensively combed the preoperative and postoperative molecular targeting therapy from advanced GIST to early GIST, and analyzed the problems, proposed solutions and prospects for the future, aiming to provide reference for clinical application of molecular targeting drug therapy for GIST.
