Objective To investigate the relationship between executive function and depressive symptoms in patients with major depressive disorder( MDD) under the Tower of London Test ( TOL) . Meth-ods Thirty depression patients and thirty age?, gender?, education?matched normal controls participated in the study. All subjects received the Tower of London Test. The severity of depressive and anxiety symptoms were assessed by Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression ( HAMD) ,Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale( HAMA) and Beck Depression Rating Scale( BDI) . Results ( 1) The numbers of correct response and total response of the TOL in MDD(9.1±5.1,12.1±5.3) were significantly lower than those of the control group(13.8±5.0, 17.3±3.9)(P<0.05).The response time of the TOL test in patients with MDD((10.4±2.8)s) was signifi?cantly longer than that of the control group((8.5±2.2)s)(P<0.05). (2)The scores of HAMD ,BDI and HAMA were negatively correlated with numbers of total response( r=-0.403,-0.544,-0.495,) in patients with MDD ( all P<0.05) . Conclusion The executive function of patients with MDD is impaired and nega?tively correlated with depressive and anxiety symptoms under the Tower of London Test.

Objective To compare the efficacy of different doses of esomeprazole based quadruple therapy on Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori) eradication in Uygur population, and to study the relationship between H.pylori eradication and dyspepsia symptoms in H.pylori caused gastritis.Methods From August 2015 to May 2016, Uygur patients diagnosed with H.pylori positive superficial gastritis in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Kashgar Prefecture were recruited.According to random number table, patients were divided into single-dose group, standard-dose group and high-dose group.In single-dose group patients received esomeprazole 40 mg, once per day;in standard-dose group patients received esomeprazole 20 mg, twice per day;and in high-dose group patients received esomeprazole 40 mg, twice per day;besides esomeprazole the treatment of three groups were all combination of amoxicillin, clarithromycin and bismuth, magnesium compound granules.The treatment course of all three groups was 14 days.The H.pylori eradication rate, clinical efficacy, symptom score and adverse drug reaction were compared.The H.pylori eradication rate was evaluated with intention to treat analysis (ITT) and per-protocol sets (PP).Chi square test, t test and one-way analysis of vaiance were used for statistical comparison.Results A total of 248 patients were enrolled,82 cases in single-dose group, 83 cases in standard-dose group and 83 cases in high-dose group.There were five, five and six cases lose to follow-up or dropped out respectively in single-dose, standard-dose and high-dose group.The results of ITT analysis showed that the eradication rates of H.pylori in single-dose group, standard-dose group and high-dose group were 62.2%(51/82),77.1%(64/83) and 89.2%(74/83),respectively;the differences between each two groups were statistically significant (x2=4.34,16.33 and 4.30, all P<0.05).The results of PP analysis showed that H.pylori eradication rates of single-dose group, standard-dose group and high dose group were 66.2%(51/77),82.1%(64/78) and 96.1%(74/77),respectively;the differences between each two groups were statistically significant (x2=5.06, 22.47 and 7.84, all P<0.05).After four weeks of eradication therapy, the total dyspepsia symptom scores of single-dose group, standard-dose group and high dose group were all significantly lower than those before treatment (52.3±27.1 vs 99.4±44.1, 38.2±25.4 vs 101.0±48.9 and 28.8±16.1 vs 99.9±46.6), and the differences were statistically significant(t=5.88, 8.79 and 9.11, all P<0.01).After treatment, the total dyspepsia symptom scores of standard-dose group and high-dose group were both lower than that of single-dose group, and the differences were statistically significant (t=2.78 and 2.91, both P<0.01).The score of upper abdominal pain, epigastric burning, abdominal distention and symptom total score of high-dose group were all lower than those of standard dose group (4.8±3.9 vs 8.1±3.5, 3.1±2.5 vs 5.8±4.1, 7.9±6.8 vs 10.5±9.6 and 28.8±16.1 vs 38.2±25.4), and the differences were statistically significant (t=1.52,1.08,1.23 and 1.96, all P<0.01).After four weeks of treatment, the total efficacy rates of single-dose, standard-dose and high-dose group were 45.5%(35/77), 74.4%(58/78) and 87.0%(67/77),respectively.There were statistically significant differences between each two groups of three groups (x2=13.49, 29.73 and 3.98, all P<0.05).The incidences of adverse drug reaction of single-dose, standard-dose and high-dose group were 6.5%(5/77), 7.7%(6/78) and 7.8%(6/77),respectively;there was no statistically significant difference among the three groups (all P>0.05).Conclusions High dose of esomeprazole based quadruple therapy can increase the eradication rate of H.pylori in Uygur population, and H.pylori eradication therapy can significantly improve the dyspepsia symptoms of H.pylori caused gastritis in Uygur.High dose of esomeprazole may improve the clinical efficacy of H.pylori caused gastritis with dyspeptic symptoms in Uygur with safety.

Digital construction and network service are the inevitable trend of the development of TCM literature modernization, and the model based on App Store has become the trend of electronic publications.

In view of the above problems, combined with the development of TCM literature electronic publication, this article proposed a transformation platform based on App Store, and further elaborated the function, design and technology of the platform.

Objective To investigate the potential mechanism of POD in the elder rat model in different depths of anesthesia. Method 120 elderly rats were randomly divided into the A1,A2,A3,B1,B2 and B3 groups. The incidence of POD in the elderly rats was assessed in different depths of anesthesia ,and then the death of neurons,and the expressions of Bid,Bim,Puma and Caspase?3 were detected by Annexin/PI ,real?time PCR and Western blot assay ,respectively. Results Compared with the A1 and A3 group ,the incidence of POD in the elderly rats was decreased and the death of neurons ,and the expressions of Bid ,Bim ,Puma and Caspase?3 were decreased in Group A2(P<0.05). Compared with the preoperative condition,the incidence of POD in the elder?ly rats was increased and the death of neurons,and the expressions of Bid,Bim,Puma and Caspase?3 were in?creased in all groups (P < 0.05). Additionally,similar results were found in the group of inhalational anesthesia. Conclusion The depth of BIS 60 ~ 75/BIS 30 ~ 45 in the elderly rats lead to the increase in the incidence of POD,and that might result from the apoptosis of neurons and the increases of Bid,Bim,Puma and Caspase?3.

TCM clinical practice guidelines are not only the norms to guide medical work, but also the basis for medical management and insurance. Researches on TCM clinical practice guidelines are profoundly significant to promote standardization, modernization and internationalization of TCM. At present, researches on TCM clinical practice guidelines at home and abroad have just started. Based on successful practice of previous researches, adopting information technology to establish computer-aided TCM clinical practice guidelines is practical to promote the compilation, revision, application and generalization. This article aimed to discuss roles of researches on information technology in TCM clinical practice guidelines.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of acupuncture and point injection in cooperation with Tuina and reposition for treating lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion.Methods: Treatment was given by first acupuncture, then point injection and last Tuina and reposition. It was administered once daily, 6 times as a course and compared with simple Tuina and reposition. Results: Both the effective rate in the clinical treatment and the cure rate in the same period were significantly higher in the treatment group than in the control group. Conclusion: A composite treatment by acupuncture and point injection in cooperation with Tuina and reposition is better in curative effect and shorter in the course of treatment than simple Tuina and reposition.
