Chinese Medical Ethics 1996;0(01):-
The advancement in medical technologies dramatically increases the recovery rate of various diseases and promotes human health.Human experiments,as we know,are the essential process for the research and upgrading of novel medical technologies,thus serious issues arise as how to protect the legal rights of human subjects.For the convenience of medical research,many doctors enroll their own patients as subjects in their research projects,in which many ethical issues and even disputes are involved.This thesis gives an ethical analysis on the voluntary will of patients′ informed consent to be the subjects in their doctors′ research projects,and comes up with the justifications for and against,limitation principles for application,and protection mechanism for patients′ legal rights.

Chinese Traditional Patent Medicine 1992;0(03):-
AIM: To study the effect of the four alkaloids of Sophora Alopecuroides On cycloxygenase(COX) activities in vitro. METHODS: The effect of matrine, oxymatrine sophocarpine and sophoridine on COX2 and COX1 activity were evaluated by the content of Prostaglandin E_2(PGE_2) and 6-Keto-PGF_~1a , respectively. The PGE_2 came from exogenous AA in cultured mouse peritoneal macrophage supernatants induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS) 1 ug?mL~-1 was measured with radioimmunoassay(RIA) method using ~ 3H-labelled PGE_2. The 6-Keto-PGF_~1a from exogenous AA in cultured mouse peritoneal macrophage supernatants induced by calcium ionophore A23187 1 ?mol?L~-1 was measured with RIA method using~125 I-labelled 6-Keto-PGF_~1a . RESULTS: The COX2 activities were markedly inhibited in a dose dependent manner by oxymatrine, sophocarpine and sophoridine, Respectively. Excluding the sophoridine, all the other three alkaloids of Sophora Alopecuroids obviously suppressed the activities of COX1, respectively. CONCLUSION: The in vitro results show that oxymatrine, sophocarpine and sophoridine may have the significant specific inhibitory action for COX2, in contrase, matrine may be COX1 selective inhibitor.

Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2008;15(4):348-352
Objective To study the change of BDNF/NF-κB signal pathway induced by repeated febrile seizures.Methods Fifty-one 21 d male rats were randomly divided into three groups:normal control group(n=14),hyperthermal control group(n=19)and febrile seizure group(n=18).The febrile seizure model was devdoped by warrn water immersion[(45.0±0.3)℃].BDNF and NF-κB were measured by enzyme hnked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)and immunohistochemistry.Results The levels of BDNF in serum and hippocarnpus in FS group were higher than those in NC group(P<0.01)and in HC group(P<0.01).In FS group,the OD of the BDNF positive neuron was higher than that of NC group(P<0.01)and HC group(P<0.01);the OD of the NF-κb positive neuron in FS group was higher than that of NC group (P<0.01)and HC group(P<0.01),the OD of the NF-κB positive neuron in HC group higher more than in NC group(P<0.01).There was positive correlation between BDNF expression and NF-κB activation(r=0.78.P<0.01).Conclusion The expression of BDNF and NF-κB were obviously increased in FS group and they are positively correlated,suggesting that the BDNF/NF-κB signal pathway may be activated after febrile seizure.

Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2014;30(27):39-42
Objective To explore the status and influencing factor of psychological insulin resis tance (PIR) of type 2 diabetes.Methods 137 in-patients with type 2 diabetes were investigated by selfdesigned questionnaire to get general data and Insulin Perceptions Questionnaire to get PIR data.Multiple linear regression were used to find influencing factor.Results 134 participates had PIR among the 137 in-patients.The older of age,using insulin for longer time and receiving insulin treatment positively had the higher scores of main questionnaire,then had less serious psychological insulin resistance.The duration of illness course,complications,work and using insulin for the first time or not had no relationship with their PIR.Conclusions The findings indicated that the type 2 diabetes using insulin have psychological in sulin resistance generally.Age,the time using insulin,accepting or receiving insulin positively are the independent factors of psychological insulin resistance

Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2015;(25):1897-1901
Objective To explore the effectiveness of insulin dialogue toolkit on psychological insulin resistance of type 2 diabetes. Methods A total of 134 type 2 diabetes with psychological insulin resistance were selected by the inclusion and exclusion criteria . The participates were randomly assigned to control group and intervention group by computer with 67 cases each. The control group was given conventional health education, the intervention group was given insulin dialogue toolkit instead of individual health education based on conventional health education. The intervention was lasted 2 weeks.The total score and each dimension score of my opinion of insulin and the blood glucose before and after intervention were observed. Results Before intervention, the total score in my opinion of insulin in intervention group and control group was (66.40±8.51), (66.91±7.27) scores, and there was no significant difference between two groups, P>0.05.After intervention, the total score in my opinion of insulin in intervention group and control group was(76.93±5.31), (71.09±7.77) scores, and there was significant difference between two groups, Z=-5.585, P<0.01. There was significant difference in each dimension score, P<0.05 or 0.01. After intervention, the fasting blood glucose in intervention group and control group was (7.35±1.76), (7.54±1.70) mmol/L,the postprandial blood glucose 2 h in intervention group and control group was (9.47±2.26), (8.79±2.04 ) mmol/L, and there were no significant differences, P>0.05. Conclusions The insulin dialogue toolkit has an impact on psychological insulin resistance of type 2 diabetes. Insulin dialogue toolkit is a way to improve the diabetes′attitude of insulin, but the effect on blood sugar are not clarity.

Objective:To observe the efficacys and side effects of gefitinib(Iressa)and docetaxel(aisu)as the second-line treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)patients.Methods:A total of 98 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who had failed to previous fimt-line chemotherapy were randomly divided into two groups:gefitinib group and docetaxel group.In the gefitinib group,50 patients took Iressa 250 mg once daily until disease progression or intolerable toxicity occurred.In the docetaxel group,58 patients were treated with aisu 75mg/m~2 i.v.in 60 minutes in day 1.The regimen was repeated every 21 days for at least 2 consecutive cycles.They were assessed on the basis of RECIST evaluation standard of therapeutic effect for solid tumor.Results:In the gefitinib group,the response rate was 22.4%(11/49),the clinical benefit rate was 55.1%(27/49),median survival time was 7.1 months and 1-year survival rate was 35.9%.In the docetaxel group,the response rate,clinical benefit rate,median survival time and 1-year survival rate were 18.8%(9/48),50.0%(24/48),6.9months and 31.5%,respectively(P>0.05).The incidences of Ⅰ~Ⅳ degree and Ⅲ~Ⅳ degree rash were 51.0%and 10.2%in the gefitinib group,significantly lower than those in the docetaxel group (P=0.0000 and P=0.0296).The incidence of Ⅰ~Ⅳ degree diarrhea was significantly higher in the gefitinib group than that in the docetaxel group(P<0.01).The incidence of leukopenia was significantly higher in the docetaxel group than that in the gefitinib group(P=0.0000).The incidences of thrombocytopenia and anemia of Ⅰ~Ⅳ degree were also higher in the docetaxel group (P=0.0000 and P=0.0266).The improvement rate of quality of life was higher in the gefitinib group (P<0.05).Conclusion:Gefitinib has a similar anti-tumor effect as docetaxel on advanced NSCLC patients who have failed to previous fimt-line chemotherapy.Gefitnib can achieve higher improvement rate of quality of life in advanced NSCLC patients,with a lower incidence of toxicity.
