ObjectiveTo investigate the species of wild Chinese medicinal herbs for treating liver diseases in Quanzhou City of Fujian Province.Methods Based on the field investigation combined with literature reference, induction and analysis of the species of wild Chinese medicinal herbs for treating liver diseases in Quanzhou City of Fujian Province have been conducted.ResultsIt was found that there are 59 families, 112 genera, and 132 species of wild Chinese medicinal herbs for treating liver diseases in Quanzhou City of Fujian Province, most of which belong to angiosperm. 15 families, 21 genera, and 21 species are recorded in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2010 edition). Compositae has the largest number of genera and species (16 genera &19 species), followed by leguminosae (8 genera & 8 species) and labiatae (6 genera & 8 species). Chinese medicinal herbs for heat-clearing and promoting urination and leaching out damp amount to 69 and 20 species respectively. Over 88% of these wild medicinal herbs can be used to treat various liver diseases, and 46 species are used with high frequency. They are mainly taken by water decoction and oral administration.ConclusionWild Chinese medicinal herbs for treating liver diseases in Quanzhou City of Fujian Province are rich in species and resources, and are worth further development and utilization.

Objective:To explore the eye-movement characteristics and the visual cognitive processing traits of Chinese children with reading disorder (RD) during reading articles in order to offer reference for measures designed for diagnosis and therapy.Methods: Recorded the series data of eye-movement with Eye-link Ⅱ when the children read articles, and analyzed relevant parameter of eye-movement.Essay one is a narrative article chosen from the textbook of the second grade, whose content is simple and there are subject sentences.Essay two is a narrative article chosen from the Neuropsychology, which is an article used to test optic aphasia patient, and the essay has no subject sentence.Results: ①Results of reading comprehend: For the RD children, the reading score of the first narrative article was lower than that in the normal control group (2.2?1.1/2.9?0.5,t=-2.2,P0.05).For the RD children, the reading time of the two articles was longer than that in normal control group (for article one: 119.3?44.1/63.4?20.4, t=4.3,P

Objective To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture on motilin (MOT) and somatostatin (SS) in rats with diabetes gastroparesis (DGP). Methods One hundred clean healthy SD rats with negative urine glucose were chosen. After they were fed for three days and into a stable state, 30 rats were randomly selected as a control group. The other 70 rats were used as an animal model of insulin-dependent diabetes made with streptozotocin. At 10 weeks after model making, rats as successful models were randomly allocated to model and treatment groups, 30 rats each. The model group received no treatment and the treatment group, electroacupuncture at points Zusanli, Zhongwan and Weishu. Serum and antral MOT and SS were measured in every group before and after treatment. Results There were statistically significant differences in body weight and gastrointestinal propulsion rate between the treatment or model group of rats and the control group (P<0.01), and between the treatment and model groups after treatment (P<0.01). There was a statistically significant difference in blood glucose value between the treatment or model group of rats and the control group after model making and at 10 weeks and the end of treatment (P<0.01). There was a statistically significant difference in blood glucose value between at the end and 10 weeks of treatment in the treatment group (P<0.01). There were statistically significant differences in serum and antral MOT and SS contents between the treatment or model group and the control group (P<0.01), and between the treatment and model groups after treatment (P<0.01). Conclusions Electrocupuncture can markedly increase serum SS and antral MOT and decrease serum MOT and antral SS to ameliorate high blood motilin and somatostatin in DGP rats.

Objective To review the prevalence of nosocomial infection and the change of drug resistance in a comprehensive intensive care unit (ICU) and to provide theoretical basis for clinical prevention and treatment.Methods The strains of bacteria and fungi were isolated from ICU and their drug resistance was retrospectively analyzed from Jan.1st,2010 to Dec.31th,2011.Results The main pathogen of nosocomial infection were Gram-negative bacteria ( 73.3％ ),Gram-positive bacteria ( 17.9％ ) and fungi ( 8.7％ ).In bacterial infection,Gram-negative and G-positive bacteria accounted for 80.3％ and 19.7％ respectively.In Gram-negative bacteria,pseudomonas aeruginosa was the major type (21.7％).In Gram-positive bacteria,staphylococcus aureus (31.4％) was most prominent.Drug resistance of bacteria was severe,while that of fungi was mild.Conclusion Bacteria has severe drug resistance and exhibits multi-drug resistance for commonly used antibiotics.The principle of antibiotics application should be mastered and antibiotics should be chosen according to drug-sensitivity tests.

OBJECTIVETo develop a HPLC method for determining the content of protopine in Corydalis racemose.

METHODAnalysis was performed on a Gemini C18 column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm) eluted with acetonitrile-water containing 0.8% triethylamine and 3% acetic acid acetum (20:80) as the mobile phase. The flow rate was 1.0 mL x min(-1). The detection wavelength was 289 nm.

RESULTThe average content of protopine in Herb of Racemose Corydalis was 0.905%. The calibration curve of protopine was linear between 0.124-1.36 microg (r = 0.9999). The average recovery was 98.49% with RSD 1.9%.

CONCLUSIONThis method is simple, reproducible and can be used to determine the content of protopine in C. racemose.

Phytochemical studies of the the herb Sarcopyramis bodinieri var. delicate (Melastomataceae) have been carried out. The compounds were separated by repeated D101 macroporous adsorption resin column combined with Sephadex LH-20, ODS, and silica gel chromatgrophy. The structures were identified on the basis of extensive spectroscopic data analysis, and by comparison of their spectral data with those reported. Eight flavonoid compounds isolated from the ethyl acetate extract was identified as isorhamnetin (1), quercetin (2), isorhamnetin-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (3), quercetin-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (4), isorhamnetin-3-O-(6"-acetyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (5), isorhamnetin-3-O-(2"-acetyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (6), quercetin-3-O-(6"-acetyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (7), and quercetin- 3-O-(6"-O-E-p-coumaroyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (8). All of the compounds were separated from the genus of Sarcopyramis for the first time.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal lucentis or conbercept injection combined with ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV)implantation on the treatment of neovascular glaucoma (NVG).Methods:A total of 68 NVG patients (68 eyes)were divided into three groups according to the pretreatment (the intravitreal injection of lucentis or conbercept or no intravitreal injection 3 - 7 d before AGV implantation):lucentis group (n = 26, given intravitreal injection of 10 g · L-1 lucentis),conbercept group (n = 21, given intravitreal injection of 10 g·L-1 conbercept)and control group (n=21,given medicine or puncture of anterior chamber to smoothen the IOP and received AGV implantation).The panretina photocoagnlation (PRP)was performed in the patients with clear ocular media before intravitreal injection or AGV implantation.For the patients with cloudy ocular media,the intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs was performed first and the PRP was performed when fundus could be seen.Results:Compared with before operation,the mean IOP and the number of antiglaucoma medications of the patients used in three groups after operation were significantly decreased (P < 0.01).There were no significant differences in the successful rates of operation of the patients in three groups at different time points after operation (P >0.05).1 month and 3 months after operation,the BCVA of the patients in lucentis and conbercept groups was significantly better than that in control group (P <0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidence of complications of the pateints between lucentis and conbercept groups at different time points after operation (P >0.05).Conclusion:Intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs combined with AGV implantation is effective and safe in the treatment of NVG.In short term,it can improve the vision,relieve the pain and reduce the complications.
