Objective To observe the effect of tai chi chuan on anneal dyspnea and endurance stamina of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods 80 COPD patients were randomly divided into control group (n=40) and training group (n=40). The common therapy of two groups was the same; but the training group was added with Chen style tai chi chuan training for 30 minutes one day. At the same time, all patients were evaluated about the dyspnesa exponent before and after 3 months training.Results There were no significant differences in FEV1(%), FEV1/FVC(%),heart rate and breath frequency/minute before and after treatment (P>0.05) between two groups, but in dyspnea exponent, there was a significant difference between two groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Tai chi chuan training can reduce the symptom of COPD patients.

The liquid-chromatography-mass technology was used in the metabolomic analysis of mouse's blood 1 hour after exhaustive exercise,in order to explore the potential mechanism of Rhodiola in fatigue elimination of exhaustive exercise mouse.The exhaustive mouse model was made by loaded-swimming.A total of 24 mice were randomly divided into theRhodiola + exercise group,exercise group andno-exercise group.The dose of Rhodiola was 0.4375 g·kg-1·d-1.The loaded-swimming was conducted after two successive weeks of medication.Blood was collected 1 h after swimming for the sample preparation.The enzyme assay and anthrone colorimetry were used to test blood lactate acid and glucose,respectively.UFLC-Q-TOF was used to detect metabolic profiles of each group.The principal component analysis (PCA),orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) and heat map analysis were used to compare differences among groups with score chart and to obtain the characteristics biomarkers by load chart.The results showed that the blood lactate acid level of theRhodiola+ exercise group was significantly lower than that of theexercise group.And the glucose level of theRhodiola+ exercise group was significantly higher than that of theexercise group.The metabolomic analysis showed that there were no obvious changes on 1,25-(OH)2D3,diacylglycerol (DG) and inositol triphosphate (IP3).All three materials in theRhodiola + exercise group were significantly lower than those of theexercise group.They were much closer to theno-exercise group.And all three materials were related to the increasing of muscle tension.It was concluded that Rhodiola had the function of promoting fatigue eliminating.This effect may be related to cell membrane protection,regulation of 1,25-(OH)2-D3→IP3,DG pathway,and relieving of muscle tension after exercises.

This paper is to explore changes of intestinal mucosal barrier, intestinal flora, and bacterial translocation in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Twenty four male SD rats were randomly divided into the control group (n = 10) and the experimental group (n = 14). The model of severe acute pancreatitis of rats was induced by the method of injecting adversely 5% sodium taurocholate into the common biliary-pancreatic duct. All of the rats were killed after 24 hours and the level of the serum amylase and the plasma endotoxin was determined after that. The pathological changes of pancreas and small intestine were observed through hematoxylin-eosin staining (HE staining) and the abdominal viscera bacterial translocation rates were tested. With the method of real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) the quantity of the intestinal flora was analyzed. In the control group, the level of Escherichia coli, Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium were 2.08 ± 1.29, 11.04 ± 7.55 and 12.21 ± 4.95, respectively. On the contrast, the level of Escherichia coli in the cecum contents was much higher (9.72 ± 3.58, P < 0.01), while the Lactobacillus number was decreased significantly (0.67 ± 0.34, P < 0.01), and the Bifidobacterium number was also decreased (4.59 ± 3.42, P < 0.05) in the experimental group, so the ratio of Bifidobacterium/Escherichia coli was reversed. Besides, in the experimental group, the plasma endotoxin positive rates and the bacterial translocation rates were much higher (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05) and the pathology scores of pancreas and small intestines were also significantly higher (P < 0.01) than those in the control group. These results indicated that in severe acute pancreatitis rats, the intestinal mucosal barrier was severely damaged and the dysbacteriosis occurs in the intestinal canal. And these might relate to the occurrence and development of multiple organ infection.

Objective To investigate the adjustment of miRNA-155 on CD4+ CD25+ Treg regulative T cell in peripheral blood in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) and its pathogenesis. Methods Sixty patients with ACI were divided into three groups according to clinical neurological deficit score. Twenty healthy volunteers were enrolled into the control group. The expression levels of plasma miR-155 mRNA and Foxp3 mRNA were detected by real-time quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR). IL-10 levels in plasma were detected by ELISA. Results Expression of miR-155, Treg, Foxp3 mRNA and levels of IL-10 were significantly increased in patients with ACI compared with normal control group, with statistical differences; Expression of miR-155, Treg, Foxp3 mRNA and levels of IL-10 were gradually increased. The values showed significant statistical difference among the mild, moderate and severe ACI groups (P < 0.01). Among the patients,the levels of miR-155, Treg, Foxp3 mRNA and levels of IL-10 in the survival group were obviously lower than those in the non (P<0.05 or P<0.01). There was a positive correlation between miR-155 and Treg, Foxp3 mRNA (P < 0.01). Conclusion This study suggests that miR-155 is involved in the cell proliferation regulation of CD4+ CD25+ Treg cells,and plays some role in the immunological dissonance with ACI.

Objective To study and analyze the clinical effect of clarithromycin combined with tinidazole in the treatment of HP associated gastritis in children. Abstract 100 children with HP associated gastritis were selected as the subjects. The control group was treated with 50 mg/(g?d) amoxicillin combined with 20 mg/(g?d) metronidazole, twice a day. The control group was treated with clarithromycin combined with tinidazole, 20 mg/(g?d) clarithromycin, 20 mg/(g?d) tinidazole, twice a day. The clinical efficacy, the rate of HP eradication and adverse reactions of the experimental group and the control group were compared and analyzed. Results After the corresponding treatment, 45 patients in the experimental group were radical cured. In the control group, 35 cases were radical cured. The radical cured rate of HP of the control group (90.0%) was significantly higher than that (70.0 %) in control group, which was statistically significant (P<0.05). In the control group, 15 cases were valid, and 25 cases were better effective. In the experimental group, 32 cases were better effective, and 16 cases were valid. The effective rate of the experimental group was 96.0%, which was significantly higher than that (80.0%) of the control group with statistical difference (P<0.05). In the control group, 3 cases occurred complications, in the experimental group, 2 cases occurred complications, and the incidence of complications in two groups was 6.0% and 4.0% respectively. There was no significant difference between two groups. Conclusion Clarithromycin combined with tinidazole in the treatment of pediatric HP associated gastritis has better efficacy, high safety, could significantly improve the clinical symptoms of patients, with clinical significance.

Objective To explore the recuperative effect of immunological function and nutritional status on the patients treated by immune enteral nutrition in early stage after severe multiple injury (SMI). Method The patients with SMI,in department of Trauma Surgery,Tongji Hospital,Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology,between January 2006 to May 2007 were randomly divided into 2 groups: immune enteral nutrition group (IEN group, 20 cases), enteral nutrition group (EN group, 20 cases). The health persons served as the control group(15 cases) .Since 1st postinjury day, all patients were treated with nutritional support. The T-cell subgroup in periphera blood were detected by FCM and the level of PA, RBP, IL-2 and IL-4 in blood serum were detected by ELASA on the 1st, 3rd,5th, 8th postinjury day. Results After the treatment of IEN and EN,the serum levels of PA, RBP and the proportion of T-cell subgroup were significantly increased on the 8th postinjury day compared with on 1st postinjury day (P ＜ 0.01), but there were no differences between IEN group and EN group. The level of IL-4 were significantly decreased and the level of IL-2 were significantly increased in each group on 8th postinjury day, at same time, the level of IL-2 were significantly increased in IEN group compared with EN group (P ＜ 0.05), and the level of IL-4 were significantly decreased in IEN group compared with EN group (P ＜ 0.05). The duration of SIRS was transient and the infected complication was low on the patients treatment by IEN than EN. Conclusions On the patients with severe multiple injury, IEN was most ascendant than EN to improve the immunosuppression and clinical prognosis.
