OBJECTIVETo study the role of PI3K/Akt pathway in the neuroprotective effect of paeoniflorin on PC12 cells.
METHODThe paeoniflorin group (5, 10, 20 μmol · L(-1)) was pretreated for 30 min, and then added with Aβ25-35 (20 μmol · L(-1)) for interaction for 24 h. Inhibitor LY294002 (10 μmol · L(-1)) was pretreated for 30 min before the action of paeoniflorin (10 μmol · L(-1)). The MTT colorimetric method was used to detect the cell viability. The apoptosis rate was tested by the FITC-Annexin V/PI staining. The protein expression of p-AKT, Bax, Bcl-2 and cleaved caspase-3 protein were detected by Western blot analysis.
RESULTPaeoniflorin could significantly inhibit the Aβ25-35-induced PC12 cell toxicity and apoptosis. Its protection effect may be achieved by up- regulating AKT phosphorylation level, increasing Bcl-2 protein expression, reducing Bax protein expression, inhibiting the activation of caspase-3. Inhibitor LY294002 could weaken the above protective effects of paeoniflorin.
CONCLUSIONPaeoniflorin could activate PI3K/Akt signaling pathway to protect the PC12 cell injury induced by Aβ25-35.

Objective To explore the effect of minimally invasive surgery in patients with multiple fractured ribs complicated with traumatic diaphragmatic hernia. Methods Clinical data of 48 patients with multiple fractured ribs complicated with traumatic diaphragmatic hernia from January 2010 to January 2016 were retrospective analyzed. All the patients were divided into control group and observation group according to the operation method, 24 cases in each. Patients in control group were treated with thoracotomy, while patients in observation group were treated by video-assisted thoracic surgery. Results The incision length, operative time, blood loss, postoperative thoracic drainage time and hospital stay in the observation group were significantly lower than that in control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Patients with fractured ribs of the two groups were cured after bandage fixation and the observation group were treated with no conversion to thoracotomy. Clinical efficiency of the two groups were 91.67% and 79.16% and the overall complication rate was 8.32% and 37.48% respectively, the difference is statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion The video-assisted thoracic surgery in treatment of multiple fractured ribs complicated with traumatic diaphragmatic hernia has advantages of less trauma and blood loss during operation, shorter operation time, faster postoperative recovery, and better curative effect, lower incidence of complications. It can be further promoted and used in clinical.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the clinical effect and safety of dapoxetine in the treatment of premature ejaculation (PE).
METHODSWe randomly assigned 116 PE patients to receive dapoxetine on demand at 30 mg qd (dapoxetine group, n = 60, aged 23-49 years) or oral tamsulosin at 20 mg qd (control group, n = 56, aged 24-46 years). After 4 weeks of medication, we compared the clinical global impression of change (CGIC) , PE profile (PEP) scores, intravaginal ejaculation latency time (IELT) , and adverse reactions between the two groups of patients.
RESULTSCompared with the baseline, the IELT was remarkably prolonged after treatment both in the dapoxetine group ([0.86 ± 0.17] vs [4.32 ± 2.23] min, P < 0.05) and the control ([0.88 ± 0.15] vs [4.17 ± 2.26] min, P < 0.05), with no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P > 0. 05). The post-treatment rate of CGIC in the dapoxetine group had no statistically significant difference from that in the control (85.00% vs 82.14%, P > 0.05). In comparison with pre-treatment, the patients of both the dapoxetine and control groups showed dramatically improved scores after medication in perceived control over ejaculation (0.85 ± 0.23 vs 2.13 ± 0.97 and 0.88 ± 0.21 vs 2.06 ± 0.34, both P < 0.05), ejaculation-related personal distress (1.15 ± 0.64 vs 2.89 ± 0.26 and 1.19 ± 0.53 vs 2.82 ± 0.69, both P < 0.05), satisfaction with sexual intercourse (0.81 ± 0.33 vs 2.58 ± 0.37 and 0.79 ± 0.28 vs 2.45 ± 0.32, both P < 0.05), and ejaculation-related interpersonal difficulty (2.05 ± 0.61 vs 3.24 ± 0.35 and 2.03 ± 0.65 vs 3.18 ± 0.76, both P < 0.05), with no significant differences between the two groups (P > 0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions was significantly lower in the dapoxetine than in the control group (3.33% vs 30.36%, P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONDapoxetine is effective for the treatment of PE, with its advantages of prolonging the intravaginal ejaculation latency time, improving the quality of sexual life, and low incidence of adverse reactions.

Objective: To detect anti tubular basement membrane antibodies in sera from patients with tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) and investigate its clinical significance. Methods: The sera were studied from 46 patients with renal biopsy proven TIN. The normal human renal cortex was obtained from patients with nephroectomy, far from carcinoma. Tubules were isolated by a differential sieving technique. The fragments of renal epithelia were removed from tubular basement membrane enriched materials by sonication and centrifugation. Tubular basement membrane antigens were solubilized with 6 mol/L guanidine HCl. The soluble proteins were used as antigens in Western blot analysis to detect autoantibodies in sera from patients with TIN. The clinical characteristics of positive and negative patients were statistically analyzed. Results: Eleven patients with tubulointerstitial nephritis had anti tubular basement membrane antibodies by Western blot analysis, and seven protein bands could be blotted by the TIN sera. The positive prevalence of anti 55?10 3 antibody (63.8%) was higher than that of other antibodies. Eight of 27 (29.6%) patients with acute tubulointerstitial nephritis and four of 19 (21.1%) patients with chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis had anti tubular basement membrane antibodies. ESR,serum IgG and IgM in patients with acute TIN with positive anti tubular basement membrane antibodies were higher than those of the negative group There was no significant difference in the other clinical variables such as gender,age,hemoglobin,complement C 3,serum IgA,serum creatinine,blood urea nitrogen and creatinine clearance in patients with acute TIN between the positive and negative groups .There was no significant difference in clinical variables mentioned above in patients with chronic TIN between the positive and negative groups. Conclusion: Circulating anti tubular basement membrane antibodies could be detected in sera from some patients with TIN, and autoimmunity may play a role in the pathogenesis of TIN.
