OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical effect of Shugan Yiyang Capsules combined with sertraline in the treatment of premature ejaculation (PE).

METHODSWe randomly assigned 192 PE patients to receive sertraline hydrochloride 50 mg qd (control group, n = 96) or sertraline hydrochloride 50 mg qd plus Shugan Yiyang Capsules at the dose of 4 capsules tid ( combination therapy group, n = 96) , both for 6 weeks. We compared the intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) and Chinese Index of Premature Ejaculation ( CIPE) scores between the two groups of patients before and after medication and at 6 weeks after drug withdrawal.

RESULTSCompared with the baseline, the IELT was significantly increased after 6 weeks of medication in the combination therapy group ([1.41 ± 0.53] vs [6.69 ± 3.56] min, P < 0.05) and the control group ([1.43 ± 0.48] vs [5.37 ± 2.91] min, P < 0.05), and so was the CIPE score in the former (9. 80 ± 2.06 vs 21.62 ± 4.76, P < 0.05) and the latter group ([9.41 ± 1.97] vs [20.85 ± 4.83] , P < 0.05). In comparison with the pre-medication indexes, the IELT ([3.77 ± 1.63] min) and CIPE score (16.92 ± 3.37) of the combined therapy group were remarkably improved at 6 weeks after drug withdrawal (P < 0.05), but not those of the control ([1.19 ± 1.34] min and 10.59 ± 2.38, P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONShugan Yiyang Capsules combined with sertraline have a definite and lasting effect on premature ejaculation.

Objective To detect gene expressions of Uroplakin (UP) family in interstitial cystitis (IC). Methods Gene expression of UP Ia, Ib, II, III, and III-δ4 was quantitatively measured in bladder biopsy samples from patients with IC (n=29) and control subjects (n=16) using real-time RT-PCR. Results UP III-delat4, a splicing variant of UP III, was significantly up-regulated to 4.80 in IC samples (P<0.001). When IC patients were divided into two groups, one with and one without ulcerative changes, the UP Ia, UP Ib, UP II, UP III and III-δ4 genes were significantly up-regulated to 4.99, 3.31, 2.75, 15.38, 11.48 in nonulcerative IC patients, but decreased to 0.04, 0.29, 0.09, 0.11, 0.34 in ulcerative IC patients (P<0.01). The up-regulation of UP III-δ4 was more prominent than that of UP III: 26.5-fold versus 5.6-fold compared to the median values of normal subjects. Conclusion Although the clinical implications of the over-expression of UP III and III-δ4 in non-ulcerative IC bladders remain to be clarified, from the diagnostic viewpoint, UP III-δ4 is a potential marker for identifying nonulcerative IC.

Objective To explore the effects of 7.5% hypertonic saline (HS) and pentoxifylline (PTX) on the pulmonary inflammation in rats with hemorrhagic shock. Method Controlled hemorrhagic shock in rats was induced to 40 mmHg MAP by blood withdrawal and maintained for 60 min. Animals were randomly (random number) divided into 3 groups. In sham shock group ( n = 8), rats underwent cannulation without exsanquination or resuscitation and served as negative controls. In RL-resuscitated animals group ( n = 8), rats received 32 mL/kg RL (Ringers'lactate solution). In HSPTX group, rats received 4 mL/kg of 7.5% NaCl + 25 mg/kg of PTX.PaO2,pH,PaCO2, lung wet/dry weight ratio (W/D) and lung penetrating index were determined, and the percentages of neutrophil in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were detected. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase(SOD)were measured. The tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and interleukin 1β(IL-1β) in BALF supernatant were determined by using ELISA method. Results Compared with RL group, PaO2 and pH of arterial blood more increased and PaCO2 of arterial blood more decreased in HSPTX group ( P ＜ 0. 01).The wet/dry lung weight ratio and the percertages of neutrophil in BALF were reduced in HSPTX group. The level of tumor necrosis factor-αand interleukin 1β in HSPTX group were both more significantly decreased than those in RL group ( P ＜0.01). Conclusions Compared with RL group, the more attenuation of pulmonary inflammation in HSPTX group after shock is associated with less neutrophil activation and decrease in production of the irlammatory cytokines.

Objective To discuss the role of indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenas e (IDO) and tryptophanyl-tRNA synthetase (TTS) mediated tryptophan catabolism in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) patients treated with high doses of dexamethasone through the expressions of IDO and TTS in T cells , and the concentrations of plasma kynurenine and tryptophan. Methods 20 newly diagnosed or relapse ITP patients were treated with 40 mg/d × 4 d dose of dexamethasone. The heparin anticoagulant blood samples were obtained before treatment and the 5th day after treatment. 20 healthy subjects were selected as the control group. The IDO and TTS expressions in CD4+and CD8+ T cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. The concentrations of plasma kynurenine and tryptophan were detected by liquid-mass spectrometry system. Results Compared with healthy controls group, the plasma tryptophan and kynurenine concentration and the ratio of Kyn/Trp were significantly elevated in ITP patients (P <0.05); the IDO expressions of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in ITP patients were significantly lower than those in healthy controls (P < 0.05), but the TTS expressions were significantly higher (P < 0.05). The concentration of tryptophan in effective group was significantly lower than before treatment (P < 0.05), in contrast, the kynurenine concentration and the ratio of Kyn/Trp were significantly higher than before (P < 0.05). The expression of IDO in effective group were significantly higher than that before treatment (P < 0.05), conversely, the expression of TTS in effective group were significantly decreased (P < 0.05). No significant difference can be found in ineffective group. Conclusion IDO/TTS-mediated tryptophan catabolism pathway could indicate the onset of ITP. The sensitivity of ITP patients with high dose of dexamethasone treatment can be observed through the level of IDO and TTS.

Objective To evaluate engraftment status of patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(Allo-HSCT) and prompt relapse of disease based on DNA polymorphism analysis technique.Methods Sixty-six cases were detected by DNA polymorphism analysis technique and 25 cases were monitored and analyzed dynamically during this period.Results After Allo-HSCT,48 patients obtained type of donors,but 13 patients did not; 5 patients showed mixed chimerism.Two cases of type of donors converted into mixed chimerism and 4 cases of mixed chimerism converted into type of donors after some time. The others' engraftment status did not change.Conclusion DNA polymorphism analysis technique can detect engraftment status of patients exactly, rapidly, which provides effective evidences of constitution for more clinical therapy projects.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of short-segment transpedicular fixation combined with augmentation vertebroplasty in treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures. MethodsFrom November 2006 to September 2009, 37 patients with thoracolumbar burst fracture were admitted and received transpedicular fixation combined with calcium sulfate cement augmentation vertebroplasty, and the clinical data including fracture types, complications and following-up results were collected for analysis. The multimethod evaluation strategies involved the anterior vertebral body height, the sagittal Cobb's angle, the restoration of nervous function, internal fixation failure, visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) were retrospective analyzed. Results All patients were followed up for average 19 months (range, 14-37). There were no internal fixation failure, loss of reduction, neurological complications in all the patients. In 16 patients with partial neurologic deficits, 14 initially improved at the final follow-up, with no deterioration of neurologic functions. The mean time of calcium sulfate cement obvious absorption and union was 3 months and 5 months postoperatively, respectively. The anterior vertebral body height was 55.40％before surgery and 85.46％ after surgery on average, ended up with 82.35％. The sagittai Cobb's angle was improved from 22.45° to 6.86°, ended up with 9.66° on average. The mean VAS and ODI at the final followup were respectively 1.2 and 20.4 on average. ConclusionShort-segment transpedicular fixation combined with augmentation vertebroplasty appears to be effective in achieving stable biomechanics with high security,which seems to be a feasible option in the management of thoracolumbar burst fractures.
