Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2006;0(13):-
The diagnosis of myocardial damage in systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) is mainly based on clinical symptoms,physical examinations and electrocardiographic abnormality,echocardiographic changes,and myocardial enzymologic diversity in general.In recent years,it has been suggested that cardiac troponin I possesses high sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of myocardial damage.Lupus myocardial damage is diagnosed definitively depending on endomyocardial biopsy.Its treatment has been empirical,and hormone combined with immunodepressive is routine treatment.According to pathogenetic condition,there are still several therapies such as intravenous immunoglobulin therapy,blood purification and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,extracorporeal membrane oxygenation,and so on.Most often,myocardial dysfunction in SLE is of subclinical progression,and that early diagnosis and prompt treatment may play an important role in relieving patients' condition,raising quality of life and improving prognosis.

Objective: To investigate effects of Fang Ji Huang Qi Capsules on the level of blood uric acid and blood pressure in the patient of primary hypertension of type of stagnation of phlegm, Methods: 61 patients were divided into the treatment group (34 cases) treated with Fang Ji Huang Qi Capsules plus Norvasc and the control group (27 cases) treated with Norvasc. They were treated for 6 weeks and blood uric acid level, dynamic blood pressure and TCM clinical symptoms were observed. Results: The blood uric acid level decreased significantly, the valley to peak ratio of dynamic blood pressure increased and cumulative score of TCM clinical symptoms decreased significantly in the treatment group as compared with the control group (P

Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion is a common pathological state. Cognitive impairment is its main manifestation in early stage, and it will eventually result in persistent or progressive cognitive impairment and neurological deficits. Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion caused neuronal damage, synapse abnormity, energy impairment and the function defects of central cholinergic system and monoaminergic system are its pathophysiological mechanisms resulting in cognitive impairment.

AIM: To study the clinical characteristics of corneal perforation ( CP) .
METHODS:A retrospective analysis in July 1995 to July 2010 the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University diagnosed CP 72 patients ( 72 eyes ) , clinical characteristics of all the patients were analyzed.
RESULTS: The incidence of corneal ulcer perforation rised year by year, the morbidity of male and female was 17:7, the onset age focused on 48 years old. Of 23 industrial workers ( 32%) with clear history of trauma, pathogeny identification results:top two:fungal infection and Acanthamoeba keratitis. A using history of glucocorticoid was found in 10 cases.
CONCLUSION:There are plenty of primary causes of CP such as traumas, fungal infection, Acanthamoeba keratitis, eroded keratitis, etc. CP happens in middle-aged males in Fujian province, most traumas are the causes, the main pathogenic bacteria is fungal infection.

OBJECTIVETo explore the curative effect and safety of acupuncture for mild cognitive disorders after stroke.
METHODSRandomized controlled trial was adopted and one hundred cases conforming to criteria were divided into a combined acupuncture and medication group (group A) and a medication group (group B), 50 cases in each group. The basic treatment of cerebrovascular disease was applied in two groups. The group A treated was with acupuncture at Baihui (GV 20), Shenting (GV 24) and Qucha (BL 4) etc. and oral administration of Nimodipine. In group B, Nimodipine was taken orally. The treatment lasted for 3 months, the scores of Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), modified Hasegawa Dementia Scale (HDS-R) and Barthel Index (BI) were observed before and after treatment in two groups.
RESULTSThe total effective rate in group A was 66.7% (32/48), which was superior to 30.4% (14/46) in group B (P < 0.05). The scores of MMSE, HDS-R and BI after treatment were apparently improved as compared with those before treatment in two groups (all P < 0.01). The improvements in group A were superior to those in group B (all P < 0.05). There was no adverse event reported during the treatment in two groups.
CONCLUSIONAcupuncture can improve activity of daily living and has significant effect in treating mild cognition disorders after stroke without adverse reactions.

OBJECTIVE:To put forward policy suggestions on the selection and revision of National Essential Drug List (NEDL) in China. METHODS: The selection principles, criteria and procedures of WHO Model List of Essential Medicines and Australia’s Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme Directory which was commonly regarded as Essential Drug List of Australia were analyzed to provide reference for the selection and revision of NEDL in China. RESULTS & CONCLUSION: The selection and revision of NEDL which were strongly supported by related policies demand active participation of all social sectors, open and transparent working procedures, scientific and operational methods for selection and revision, authoritative monitoring and aftereffect evaluation system.

Objective To analyze the incidence rate and mortality of perinatal asphyxia and effects of new resuscitation technique on asphyxia as well as the risk factors of asphyxia in latest 10 years.Methods A retrospective evaluation was done for all the newborns who were born in the provincial women and children′s health care hospital from 1995 to 2004.The morbidity,mortality and fatality rate were calculated for each observed year and different seasons.The influence of gender,body weight,gestational age as well as polyembryony and mode of delivery on the asphyxia was analyzed.Results The morbidity of mild birth asphyxia was decreased dramatically and maintained at about 1.5% after using new resuscitation technique,however,there were no obvious effects on the sever asphyxia.In the same time,no big influence on fatality rate of birth asphyxia was observed.The incidence rate was highest in April,but the mortality and fatality of asphyxia was highest in July.The incidence of asphyxia was also related with gender,polyembryony,birth weight,prematurity babies and aids to delivery from voginal.Conclusions The incidence of perinatal asphyxia is related with the gender,polyembryony,birth weight and gestation age as well as seasons.New resuscitation technique can reduce the morbidity of mild birth asphyxia,and no effect on the severe asphyxia as well as fatality rate.

The patterns of efficient components recognition and quality control for Chinese materia medica (CMM) have been the difficult and hot topics for CMM modernization.To get a radical and significant breakthrough in the investigation on the efficient component recognition and quality control standard for CMM,a tentative idea about efficient component recognition and quality control pattern for CMM based on constituent knock-out/knock-in is initially proposed in this article on the foundation of retrospective and prospective analyses.And its main aim is to provide some creative and practical ideas and methods to recognize the key efficient components of CMM precisely and quickly,and to meet with the requirements that the quality control standards for CMM will be effectiveness-related,quantitative and accurate,controllable and assessable.
