In the periods from June to August, 1984 and from June to November, 1985, a clinical and laboratory observation on Campylobacter jejuni infection was carried out. 216 children with acute diarrhea were studied. 856 healthy children were likewise studied as normal control. Campylobacter jejuni was isolated from the fecal specimens of 25 patients (11.65%) and 25 healthy children (2.9%) respectively (P

Objective To explore the methods of large sample research for traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) symptoms of exercise-induced diseases and to define the main symptoms and the main symptom compositon of exercise-induced diseases.Methods The methods of TCM theory of differentiation of syndrome, epidemiology study and multivariable statistical analysis were properly combined. We investigated 518 cases of exercise-induced insomnia(EII) by using the clinical epidemiology program with the uniform diagnostic standard and data processing method.Results The asthenia of both the heart and the spleen(56 cases, 10 8%) was one of the primary syndrome of EII.Conclusions This study showed that main symptoms in differential diagnosis of asthenia of both the heart and the spleen might be sleeplessness, poor appetite, excessive dream, dizziness and weakness of limb.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of Jianpi Huoxue Jiedu (JPHXJD) prescription on prevention of the postoperative metastasis of gastric cancer and to observe the changes of immunity and whole blood viscosity after treatment. METHODS: JPHXJD prescription and chemotherapy were administered to the treated group for 12 successive months, while only chemotherapy was given to the control group. RESULTS: The effective rate of anti-metastasis in the treated group was obviously better than that in the control group. In the aspects of enhancing Karnofsky scores, reducing whole blood viscosity and improving immunity after treatment, the treated group was better than the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: JPHXJD prescription combined with chemotherapy shows apparent effect on anti-metastasis. It can improve the quality of life of the patients, lower the whole blood viscosity and improve the immunity function.

Objectives:To explore the effect and possible mechanisms of mild hypothermia on interferon(IFN)-α2b-induced AC16 cardiomyocytes apoptosis. Methods:Cardiomyocytes were stimulated in ordinary temperature and mild hypothermia by IFN-α2b under different concentrations for different times.Proliferation activity of cardiomyocytes was detected by CCK-8 assay.Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry technique.The effects of different interventions on mitochondrial morphology were examined using Mito-Tracker Green and laser scanning confocal microscope,respectively.The mitochondrial membrane potentials under different intervention conditions were detected by flow cytometry.The fusion of dynamin-related protein 1(Drp1)and mitochondria,and the effects of different interventions on the mitochondria was examined by Drp1 or mitochondrial fluorescent probes and laser scanning confocal microscope.The effects of different intervention conditions on the protein expression level of Phospho-Drp1(p-Drp1)Ser616,Drp1,cleaved poly ADP-ribose polymerase1(cleaved-PARP1),poly ADP-ribose polymerase1(PARP1)were detected by Western blot. Results:CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry results showed that IFN-α2b inhibited the proliferation and enhanced the apoptosis of AC16 cardiomyocytes in a time and dose-dependent manner,these effects could be attenuated by mild hypothermia.Mito-Tracker Green,laser scanning confocal microscope and flow cytometry results showed that the extent of damage of mitochondria with different interventions were attenuated in the setting of mild hypothermia as compared with ordinary temperature.The morphology of mitochondria remained intact and the mitochondrial membrane potentials were the highest in mild hypothermia group.Injured AC16 cardiomyocytes released Drp1 from cytoplasm to mitochondria and increased mitochondrial fission,these effects were abolished after mild hypothermia.p-Drp1 Ser616/Drp1 ratio and cleaved-PARP1/PARP1 ratio were decreased after mild hypothermia,and above effects could be reversed by mitochondrial division inhibitor-1(Mdivi-1)pretreatment. Conclusions:Mild hypothermia inhibits IFN-α2b-induced AC16 cardiomyocytes apoptosis via improving mitochondrial function.
