Iodine is an essential trace element,its physiological function is realized through thyroid hormone,both iodine deficiency and excess have influences on human health.After 20-year implementation of universal salt iodization in China,the iodine deficiency disorders have been controlled effectively,while the problem of iodine excess emerged.Because of different geographical environment,dietary habits and physiological status,some people did exposed to high level of iodine.In recent years,domestic and foreign scholars carried out series of researches aiming at disclose the effects of iodine excess on human health.The health problems induced by high iodine intaking are goiter,hyperthyroidism,hypothyroidism,autoimmune thyroiditis and thyroid cancer et al.Therefore,when preventing and treating iodine deficiency,iodine excess should also be avoided,so as to achieve the ideal goal of adjust measurements according to local conditions,classification guidance,and scientific iodine supplementation.

Objective To discuss the correlation between the dysmenorrhea and TCM constitutions among the junior high school girls of Shanghai suburb; To analyze the influencing factors; To provide references for the prevention of dysmenorrhea. Methods By using cluster sampling during December 2015 to January 2016, the questionnaire surveys which included the general situation, the classification and determination of TCM constitution self-test and COX Menstrual Symptom Scale were used for the junior high school girls from the suburb area of Shanghai to analyze the relationship between dysmenorrhea and TCM constitutions and the influencing factors. Results The incidence rate of dysmenorrhea was 29.52% (93/315) in junior high school girls from the suburb area of Shanghai. There was statistical significance in body height and menarche age among girls with and without dysmenorrhea (P<0.05). The rank correlation coefficient of dysmenorrhea and gentleness type was -0.130 (P=0.021). The rank correlation coefficients of dysmenorrhea and pathological constitution (except for special diathesis type) were all greater than 0 (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that there was statistical significance in the incidence of different coagula in menses, different inheritance of dysmenorrhea, different sleep quality, different learning pressure, different emotional state and different physical exercises (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that influence factors of dysmenorrhea were inheritance of dysmenorrhea, learning pressure and yin-deficiency constitution. Conclusion The pathological constitution is the susceptible constitution of dysmenorrhea of junior high school girls. Yin-deficiency constitution, inheritance of dysmenorrhea and learning pressure can increase the incidence of dysmenorrhea. It is suggested that the corresponding preventive measures should be taken to achieve the purpose of prevention dysmenorrhea by regulating and improving yin-deficiency constitution.

Background:Irritable bowel syndrome(IBS)is a commonly seen functional intestinal disorder. Dietary factors are important factors affecting the abdominal symptoms of IBS patients. Aims:To investigate the effect of dietary factors on abdominal symptoms of IBS and the application of dietary adjustment strategy in patients lived in Xian,Shaanxi Province and the surrounding areas. Methods:Fifty-four outpatients with abdominal complaints who met the Rome Ⅲ criteria of IBS from Feb. 2015 to Jul. 2015 at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xian Jiaotong University were enrolled. Twenty healthy volunteers were served as controls. All subjects completed a questionnaire containing issues mainly on IBS symptoms, eating habits,dietary factors causing abdominal symptoms,and the patients’coping styles. Results:Compared with healthy controls,more rice and less spicy food,fatty food,raw/ cold food,acidic beverages and alcohol drinking were observed in diet of IBS patients(P all < 0. 05). Abdominal symptoms of IBS patients could be caused or exacerbated predominantly by cold food(55. 6% ),fatty food(55. 6% ),raw food(48. 1% ),meat(48. 1% )and spicy food (40. 7% ). More than half of the IBS patients(63. 0% ) adopted an elimination diet to minimize their abdominal symptoms. Spicy food(59. 3% ),raw food(48. 1% ),cold food(44. 4% ),fatty food(44. 4% )and meat(37. 0% ) were the most frequently eliminated classes of food. Conclusions:Dietary factors can affect the abdominal symptoms of IBS in patients lived in Xian,Shaanxi Province and the surrounding areas and elimination diet based on foods they perceive as problematic is widely used. The classes of food and eating habits causing abdominal symptoms are quite different between domestic and overseas IBS patients.

Baicalein-nicotinamide(BE-NCT)co-crystal was chosen as model drug to investigate the thermody-namic characteristics.Solubilities of BE in NCT solutions in ethyl acetate at different temperatures were deter-mined in order to explain the complexation behavior of BE-NCT co-crystal.Thermodynamic parameters of co-crys-tal formation progress were calculated.Ternary phase diagrams (TPDs)of the BE-NCT-ethyl acetate systems at various temperatures were established.The non-linear fitting equation according to 1 ∶1 complexation mechanism of BE-NCT co-crystal demonstrated a good correlation between calculated and experimental data (R2 >0.98). Co-crystal formation is a spontaneous process(ΔG°<0).Increase in temperature resulted in the increase of Ksp;decrease of K11 and a narrowed co-crystal zone.The degree of spontaneous reaction also decreased with increased temperature.The spontaneous reaction no longer carried out if the temperature reached T* =315 K sinceΔG°=0(ΔH°=-6.314 ×10 -2 kJ/mol;ΔS°=-0.200 5 J/mol.K).A drop in temperature favors the complexation between BE and NCT in ethyl acetate.Since NCT has higher solubility than BE in ethyl acetate;the TPDs of co-crystal was asymmetric.The DSC diagrams of products prepared via three presupposed methods confirmed that the BE-NCT co-crystal could be generated in solutions of nonstoichiometric compositions.

ObjectiveTo define the difference of urine analysis result,α1-microglobulin (α1-MG) and β2-microglobulin ( β2-MG) between those patients suffering from calcium oxalate stone,non-calcium oxalate stone and non-urolithiasis controls at the same time period.MethodsData from 100 patients admitted to the Department of Urology,First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from July,2010 to September,2010 were reviewed.66 patients (45 men,21 women) suffered from urolithiasis,and 34 patients (22 men,12 women) were non-urolithiasis.Patients' ages in urolithiasis group varied from 13 to 78 years and the male to female ratio was 2.1∶1.0.The patients in non-urolithiasis controlgroup aged from 12 to 80 years and the male to female ratio was 1.8∶1.0.Blood and urine were taken from the patient the next morning after admission.The biochemistry from blood and 24 h urine were measured by automatic biochemistry analyzer.The α 1-MG and β2-MG content were measured by radioimmunoassay.The stone compositions were analyzed by infrared spectroscopy.ResultsThere was difference in the levels of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen among three groups ( P ＜ 0.05).In controls,those with calcium oxalate stone had higher level of urinary α1-MG and β2-MG,but there were no differences in the urinary electrolyte levels.Group of non-calcium oxalate stones urinary uric acid levels were higher than calcium oxalate and control groups,the difference was statistically significant.ConclusionsIn the formation of uric acid stones,uric acid increased as independent risk factors.α1-MG,β2-MG may promote the formation of calcium oxalate stones.

Objective Clarify the effect of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) on endothelial cell injury, and investigate whether the heparin can exert a protective effect on endothelial cells by reducing the endothelial cell injury induced by NETs.Methods Neutrophils (PMN) were obtained from healthy human peripheral blood by Percoll-Histopaque density gradient centrifugation, and was stimulated with phorbol ester (PMA) to induce NETs. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of NETs was detected by immunofluorescence staining combined with fluorescence detector. The NETs were used to induce human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC)in vitro. Recombinant DNA hydrolytic enzymes (rhDNase) and heparin intervention were added respectively. The activity of HUVEC was measured by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) method after 6 hours.Results PMA can stimulate PMN to produce NETs. Immunofluorescence staining showed the formation of reticular formation around the PMN. The concentration of cell-free DNA in the supernatant of PMN stimulated by PMA was significant increased compared with the control group through the detection of PicoGreen fluorescent labeling instrument (2 hours: 119.62±14.83 vs. 24.27±0.67, 4 hours: 146.67±21.24 vs. 28.35±2.98, bothP < 0.05). Application of NETs to stimulate the HUVEC, cell damage was dose dependent and inhibition rate increased gradually. The endothelial cell inhibition induced by NETs can be antagonized after adding rhDNase [10μg/L NETs: (8.65±0.51)% vs. (10.99±0.35)%, 20μg/L NETs:(14.85±0.43)% vs. (16.85±0.49)%, 30μg/L NETs: (26.06±3.51)% vs. (27.54±0.62)%, allP < 0.05]. Heparin with different concentrations were added into the experimental group (0.01, 0.1, 1, 10 kU/L). We found that the endothelial cell inhibition rate decreased compared with control group [10μg/L NETs: (8.96±0.70)%, (5.32±1.36)%, (0.70±0.30)%, (0.75±0.20)% vs. (10.99±0.35)%; 20μg/L NETs: (15.57±0.62)%, (13.28±0.65)%, (6.91±0.15)%, (5.86±0.17)% vs. (16.85±0.49)%; 30μg/L NETs: (30.49±0.74)%, (29.41±1.41)%, (23.45±0.75)%, (21.72±1.52)% vs. (27.54±0.62)%, allP < 0.05].Conclusions NETs can induce endothelial cell injury, and the injury degree was increased with the concentration of NETs. Heparin can reduce endothelial cell injury induced by NETs, which may be a potential mechanism for the protective effect of heparin on sepsis.

BACKGROUND; Authors have proposed the hypothesis that, the mechanism change may result in the mismatch between the energy production and energy consumption during the aerobic exercise, and pyruvate can be transformed into lactic acid, which may prevent the accumulation of pyruvate in cytoplasm and in the energy production of glycolysis so as to ensure the fast energy supply in zymolysis; the mechanism of this biochemical event may be the adjustment of energizing velocity via glycomechanism zymolysis.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of oxygen inhalation on metabolic transition, study the mechanism of metabolic transition under the lactate threshold intensity in human body and animal, and verify the result consistency between the two.DESIGN: Randomized control observation.SETTING: Department of Physical Education, Hebei Normal University; Department of Physical Education, Langfang Teachers College.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 24 male university students majoring physical education were adopted, weight (58±4) kg,height (175±6) cm, age (21 ±2) years. They were consisted of 12 Level B national athletes and12 common students.Additionally 30 SD male rats were used.METHODS: The experiment was carried out in the Laboratory of Physical and Physiological Function, Department of Physical Education in Hebei Normal University from April to June in 2006. Twenty-four students were recruited to exercise incrementally in ergometer; in addition, thirty SD rats were assigned to swim incrementally, 15 rats in each group. First, the intensities of metabolic transition were determined, then the exercise protocol was repeated on the conditions of inhaling and not inhaling oxygen. For student group, 50 W loading was incremented every 2 minutes, while the rats were added with 1% of their weights until unacceptable. Gradually incremented loading was used to transform the aerobic mechanism to anaerobic mechanism. The vein blood oxygen partial pressure, pyruvate and lactate contents were measured before and during the exercise (lactate threshold intensity) to evidence the reliability and validity of hypothesis.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The vein blood oxygen partial pressure, pyruvate and lactate contents under lactate threshold intensity and oxygen inhaling supplementary.RESULTS: All 24 testees and 30 rats were involved in the result analysis. ①During the gradually incremented exercise,the lactic acid curve obtained at the end of 2-minute loading showed the difference of metabolic transition intensity and training level in accordance with individual lactic acid threshold, which was obviously lower in the trained exercisers.②Under the lactate threshold intensity, the blood lactate was not correlated to the oxygen partial pressure whether in human body or rats and whether inhaling oxygen or not [(3.61±0.56), (5.43±0.55) mmol/L; (4.46±0.86), (7.80±0.27) kPa,r =0.31, 0.31, P ＞ 0.05]; there was significant difference between the blood lactate and pyruvate contents [(1.04±0.16),(0.91±0.37) mmol/L, P ＜ 0.001]. The human body's saturation of blood oxygen was no less than 98% during the entire protocol. ③Under the repeated exercise and lactate threshold intensity, the pyruvate average value was (0.97±0.17),(1.04±0.16) mmol/L; (0.93±0.25), (0.91 ±0.37) mmol/L, respectively. There was no significant difference between the blood pyruvate before the exercise and under the lactate threshold intensity in both human body and animals (P ＞ 0.05).CONCLUSION: There is no hypoxia at the transition from aerobic to anaerobic metabolism. Oxygen inhaling supplementary has no influence on the mechanism transition; It is not easy for the pyruvate to pass the myocyte membrane, but the lactate can. The result demonstrates that the pyruvate can transform to lactate directly, which can also prevent the accumulation of pyruvate in kytoplasm.
