Upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage (UGH) is a kind of intensive disease commonly encountered clinically. In recent years, the diagnosis and treatment method of UGH had achieved satisfied progress. But with the development of aged tendency of population, its morbidity is still in a high level. Especially in older patients with serious complications, the fatality rate is much higher. It has been proved practically, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has remarkable effects in treating UGH. This article summarized the progress of TCM or integrative medicine studies on UGH through etiology and pathogenesis, therapeutic principle and methods.

Objective To investigate the impact of acupoint massage on the vital signs of patients with angina pectoris in coronary artery heart disease (CHD) during the operation. Methods Using non-concurrent cohort controlled design, 38 cases who with angina pectoris in CHD received interventional therapy, from June to September in 2015, in the therapy rooms of our hospital were selected as control group and received routine nursing. 38 cases who with angina pectoris in CHD received interventional therapy, from October 2015 to January 2016, in the therapy rooms of our hospital were selected as intervention group and received acupoint massage based on routine nursing. Heart rate and blood pressure of patients in two groups were monitored and recorded during the operation. Results Compared with control group, systolic blood pressure of patients in intervention group decreased obviously (143.26±17.67 vs. 153.18 ± 19.35) mmHg (1mmHg=0.133 kPa), diastolic blood pressure decreased obviously (83.16 ± 12.29 vs. 93.82 ± 16.54), and heart rate decreased obviously (71.89 ± 13.90 vs. 79.05 ± 12.63) mmHg (t=2.33, 3.19, 2.35, P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusions Acupoint massage can effectively reduce heart rate and blood pressure of patients with angina pectoris in CHD during the operation, relieve patients' anxiety, and help for smoothing operation, shortening operation time and reducing operation risk.

OBJECTIVETo compare the protein profiles between decapeptide-treated and untreated planktonic cells of Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) by differential proteomic analysis to determine and identify the key proteins.

METHODSIn our previous study, we investigated decapeptide (KKVVFKVKFK-NH2), which was a novel adenosine monophosphate. Compared with other oral pathogens tested, decapeptide had a preferential antibacterial activity against S. mutans. It also inhibited S. mutans biofilm formation and reduced the one-day developed biofilm. In the present study, we first synthesized decapeptide, and then compared the protein profiles between decapeptide-treated and untreated planktonic cells of S. mutans by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. We also verified different expressions of key protein enolase in the protein level.

RESULTSThe results showed that decapeptide altered the protein expression of planktonic S. mutans. These proteins were functionally involved in carbohydrate degradation by glycolysis, protein folding, conjunction, transport, translation, adenosine triphosphate binding, protein binding, sequence-specific DNA binding, transcription factor activity, and two-component response regulator activity. Western blot results showed that enolase protein expression decreased obviously in decapeptide-treated cells of S. mutans.

CONCLUSIONThe protein expression of S. mutans significantly changed after synthetic antimicrobial decapeptide treatment, suggesting that decapeptide may present a preferential effect on oral caries by changing the expression of certain key proteins, such as enolase protein.
