ObjectiveTo explore clinical effect and safety ofShaoyao-Gancao decoction combined withSiwu decoction for the patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).MethodsA total of 76 patients with DPN in our hospital from 2013 July to October 2015 were divided into control group and observation group by the random number method, 38 patients in each group. The control group were treated with conventional treatment combined with oryzanol injection, and the observation group were treated with Shaoyao-Gancaodecoction combined withSiwu decoction on the basis of control group. Both groups were treated for one month. The level of FPG, 2 hPG, HbAlc, TC, TG, LDL-C and HDL-C was detected respectively before and after treatment. The whole blood viscosity and plasma viscosity was detected with LBY-N6A self-cleaning rotary viscosimeter. The red blood cells deposited and platelet aggregation rate were tested with Winchester points vascular method and turbidimetric method, respectively.The leg nerve and sural nerve of nerve conduction velocity (nerve conduction velocity, NCV) were determined with electromyography, at the same time the clinical curative effect was evaluted.ResultsTotal effect rate of observation group was 89.5% (34/38), which was significantly higher than the control group 71.1% (27/38), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.070,P=0.044); After treatment, the levels of FPG (6.12 ± 0.38 mmol/Lvs.6.58 ± 0.52 mmol/L, t=4.403), 2 hPG (7.83 ± 0.82 mmol/Lvs. 8.41 ± 0.93 mmol/L,t=2.884), HbAlc (6.27 ± 0.52%vs. 6.82 ± 0.64%, t=4.112) in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The levels of TC (4.73 ± 0.83 mmol/L vs. 5.11 ± 0.64 mmol/L,t=52.235), TG (1.83 ± 0.35 mmol/Lvs. 2.03 ± 0.41 mmol/L, t=2.287) and LDL-C (2.91 ± 0.54 mmol/Lvs. 3.25 ± 0.58 mmol/L,t=2.645) in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05), and the HDL-C (1.47 ± 0.33 mmol/Lvs. 1.26 ± 0.31 mmol/L,t=-2.859) in the observation group was higher than than that in the control group(P<0.05). The level of whole blood specific viscosity (10.16 ± 2.12 mPa?svs. 11.33 ± 2.51 mPa?s,t=2.195), plasma viscosity (1.24 ± 0.25 mPa?svs. 1.62 ± 0.37 mPa?s,t=5.246), red blood cell volume (0.31 ± 0.16L/Lvs. 0.42 ± 0.08 L/L,t=3.791) and platelet aggregation rate (50.21% ± 8.03%vs. 54.16% ± 7.82%,t=2.172) in the observation group were significantly lower than those in control group (P<0.05). The tibial nerve velocity (45.22 ± 3.20 m/svs. 38.26 ± 5.19 m/s,t=-7.037) and the common nerve velocity (43.22 ± 6.34 m/svs. 36.23 ± 4.81,t=-5.415) in the observation group were as significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.05).ConclusionsThe Shaoyao-Gancaodecoction combined withSiwu decoction could improve the state of blood sugar, blood lipid and blood rheology of patients with DPN, and improve nerve transfer speed of leg nerve and sural nerve, the curative effect is better than conventional western medicine therapy alone.

Objective To investigate the difference between nodular gastritis and atrophy gastritis.Methods During 2004.4~2005.3, the clinical, endoscopic and pathological findings of nodular gastritis and atrophy gastritis were analysed.Results Nodular gastritis is usually classified as nodular type A(nodular gastritis) and type B(atrophic gastritis with nodular changes). The endoscopic appearance of nodular gastritis was characterized as uniform miliary pattern and predominantly affected young women. The incidence of dyspeptic symptom was higher in patients with nodular gastritis than in atrophy gastritis. Nodular gastritis in adults is caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. Antral biopsy specimens showed lymphoid follicle formation and/or marked lymphoid aggregates. The prevalence of lymphoid follicle formation in the antrum was higher in patients with nodular gastritis than atrophy gastritis. Moderate to severe atrophy gastritis also usually has the same nodular endoscopic appearance,but that is not uniform and intensive.Conclusion Nodular gastritis is a very special gastritis with Helicobacter pylori infection and is different from atrophy gastritis.It is worth to be noticed.

Objective To observe the in vitro anti-Coxsackievirus B3m (CVB3m) effect of sophocarpine(SC) extracted from Sophora flavescens, a traditional Chinese herb. Methods HeLa cells were cultured and the micro-dose cytopathic effect (CPE) assays were applied to detect the toxicity of SC. CPE-inhibitory assays were used to observe the in vitro anti-CVB3m effect of SC. MTT and crystal assays were introduced to examine the anti-CVB3m effect of SC. HeLa cells were infected with CVB3m and added with SC in different concentrations 15 h later.The viability and number of survival of HeLa cells were determined by MTT and crystal violet assays, respectively. Results No toxicity was found on HeLa cells by SC with concentrations 100 ?g/mL, SC could accelerate and aggravate the CPE. SC could protect the CVB3m-infected HeLa cells with concentrations from 1.56 to 25 ?g/mL, and the viability and cell number measured by MTT and crystal violet assay in the SC-handled cells were higher and bigger than those in the virus infected ones. However, the inhibitory effect of virus was exacerbated with higher concentrations (50 and 100 ?g/mL), and the cell number and viability of the SC-handled cells were smaller and lower than those of the infected ones. Conclusion SC with a proper concentration has the in vitro anti-CVB3m effect and may protect HeLa cells from CVB3m infection.

This study was aimed to investigate various factors influencing long-term survival in adult AML patients with fusion gene aml1/eto positive. A single institutional retrospective study with long-term follow-up was performed to better define the prognostic factors for AML patients with aml1/eto positive. Newly diagnosed 89 adult AML patients with aml1/eto positive were followed up for 1 to 42 months (median 24 months) from January 2004 to July 2008. Univariate and multivariate analysis of potential factors influencing survival and prognosis were carried out by using Log-Rank and Cox regression method, including sex, age, initial WBC counts, extramedullary leukemic disease, central nervous system leukemia (CNSL), chromosome aberrations, immunophenotype, first induction regimen, chemotherapy course to complete remission (CR), time from induction therapy to CR, negative or positive rate of aml1/eto and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and so on. The results showed that the estimated 5-year overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) were (50.0 +/- 2.3)% and (47.0 +/- 1.9)% respectively in follow-up of 89 patients for 1 - 42 months (mean 24 months). Univariate analysis revealed that initial WBC counts, CNSL, chemotherapy course to CR, time from induction therapy to CR, persistent negative in remission and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were important prognostic factors for long-term surviva1. Multivariate study demonstrated that initial WBC counts, CNSL, CD56 positive, negative or positive rate of aml1/eto, time from induction therapy to CR, persistent negative result of RT-PCR assay in remission and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were all critical factors in relation to OS and RFS. It is concluded that Chinese adult AML patients with fusion gene aml1/eto positive have some different characteristics as compared with patients from other countries, a relatively poor outcome is observed in patients, HSCT should be recommended to adult AML patients.
