Objective To investigate the effects of leonurus heterophyllus injection and oxytocin and their combination applica-tion in treating postpartum hemorrhage .Methods Sixty cases of cesarean section due to the medical factors or the social factors and 54 cases of vaginal delivery were randomly divided into 3 groups by the blind method ,i .e .the leonurus heterophyllus injection group ,the oxytocin group and the leonurus heterophyllus injection plus oxytocin group .Each group was treated by the specific mode .The amounts of intraoperative bleeding and at postpartum 48 h bleeding were recorded ,and the time of the third stage of la-bor was recorded .One way Anova was used to analyze the obtained data .Results The intraoperative bleeding amounts were (1 014 .75 ± 159 .10) mL in the leonurus heterophyllus injection group and the cesarean section group ,(433 .88 ± 75 .34) mL in the leonurus heterophyllus injection plus oxytocin group and (562 .30 ± 102 .00) mL in the oxytocin group ,the difference among the groups were statistically significant(F=67 .48 ,P<0 .01) .The post hoc LSD test showed that under P<0 .05 ,LSD=109 .58 ,indi-cating the significant differences between the two groups ;in the vaginal delivery group ,no statistical difference in the total bleeding amounts ,postpartum 2 h and 2-6 h bleeding amounts had no statistical differences among 3 groups ,but the other time periods of detection had difference ,in which ,compared with the oxytocin group ,postpartum 24 h bleeding amount in the leonurus heterophyl-lus injection group was relatively less ;in the cesarean section group ,the third stage of labor had no statistical difference among 3 kinds of treatment group .Conclusion Using leonurus heterophyllus injection after vaginal delivery can reach the similar effect as oxytocin .However ,leonurus heterophyllus injection is not recommended to be exclusively used in cesarean section .

AIM To explore the effects and mechanism of cobra venom serum on the proliferation in HL60 cells. METHODS Established the HL60 cells as a target to study the growth feature by the action of cobra venom serum.The agarose gel electrophoresis and flow cytometry analysis were used to demonstrate apoptosis. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the cells were inhibited significantly by the action of cobra venom serum.A characteristic DNA "ladder" was detected by using agarose gel electrophoresis. By flow cytometry analysis,it was proved that most apoptosis of HL60 cells occurred when cultured with cobra venom serum. CONCLUSION Cobra venom serum inhibited the HL60 cells in vitro , which was related to apoptosis. This may introduce a new way to the treatment of leukemia.

This study was aimed to analyze the medication and herbal prescription rules in the treatment of nephrotic syndrome (NS) by Prof. Huang Chunlin with Traditional Chinese Medicine Inheritance Support System ( TCMISS ) . Prescriptions used for NS treatment were collected and the data was entered into the TCMISS . The commonly used herbs and herbal prescription rules in NS treatment by Prof. Huang were summarized through the association rules, revised mutual information, complex system entropy cluster and other unsupervised hierarchical clustering methods. The results showed that based on the analysis of 280 prescriptions from 68 patients, the fre-quency of each herb and association rules among herbs included in the database were identified. And the basic NS treatment prescription by Prof. Huang Chunlin and 8 new prescriptions were mined from the database. It was concluded that data mining is of great practical value to the summarization of clinical experiences of well-known TCM doctors.

Backgroud At present, there is no unified standard for the detection of glufosinate ammonium and three metabolites in urine, which affects the accurate assessment of occupational exposure risk to a certain extent. It is of great significance to establish a rapid and effective inspection method to ensure occupational safety and public health. Objective To establish an ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry for simultaneous determination of glufosinate ammonium and three metabolites in urine. Methods The effects of dilution solvents and dilution ratios on the response values of glufosinate ammonium and three metabolites were compared, and the retention capacities of solid phase extraction columns for targets as well as the effects of chromatographic columns and mobile phase systems on chromatographic peaks were analyzed. Samples were quantified by matrix effect matching external standard method. Accuracy of the method was evaluated by recovery rate of standard addition, and precision of the method was evaluated by relative standard deviation of intra-day and inter-day measurements. Urine samples of 30 health individuals were collected to evaluate the application of the method. Results The urine samples were diluted with 0.2 mL water and 0.6 mL acetonitrile, purified by HLB solid phase extraction columns, and separated by Dikma Polyamino HILIC columns, and gradient elution was carried out with 0.5 mmol·L⁻¹ ammonium acetate and 0.1% ammonia water as mobile phase, which achieved a good peak shape and mass spectrum response. The linearities of the four target compounds were good in the range of 0.5-50 ng·mL⁻¹, and the correlation coefficients (r) were all greater than 0.998. The detection limits were 0.56-2.86 μg·L⁻¹, the quantification limits were 1.87-29.54 μg·L⁻¹, and the recovery rates of standard addition ranged from 75.0% to 103.6%, The relative standard deviations of intra-batch and inter-batch were from 2.5% to 8.1% and from 4.3% to 9.3% respectively. The method was applied to detect 30 urine samples of subjects, and no target was detected. Conclusion The method is simple, rapid, sensitive, and accurate. It is suitable for the determination of glufosinate ammonium and its metabolites in human urine without derivatization.
