OBJECTIVE:To investigate the situation of drug use and occurrence of side effects of drug interactions in the inpatients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).METHODS:54 medical charts of the inpatients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Tsinghua University diagnosed as having COPD from Oct.2006 to Feb.2007 were randomly collected for analyses of patients' basic information drug utilization.RESULTS:The COPD patients received more than 8 kinds of drugs simultaneously in more then 20% of their hospital days.Side effects of drug interaction occurred in 70% of them.CONCLUSION:The study shows that the drug use in the COPD inpatients is characterized by excessive drug kinds and high incidences of drug interactions,therefore,it is urgent to take further intervention measures on drug use in COPD inpatients.

Objective Establishment of HPLC to determine the content of Baicalin in different processing varieties of traditional Chinese Medicine.Methods The HPLC method was used to determine the content of Baicalin in different processing varieties of Radix. The analytical column was thermo- C18 (150 mm × 4.6 mm, 5μm). The mobile phase consisted of methanol-water- phosphoric acid solution (47:53:0.2). The column temperature was 35℃,and the UV detection wavelenghth was 280 nm.Results The contents of Baicalin in different processed products were different. The lowest content of Radix. It was considered that the content of Baicalin in Radix decreased with the time of processing and the degree of heating.Conclusions It's known that the difference of baicalin content in different processed products ofscutellaria baicalensis Georgi was conducive tothe rational and scientific process of products.

Erythropoietin is a critical growth factor in development of erythrocyte. After binding to its receptor, eryhropoietin produces biological action through consequent activation of intracellular signal transduction systems, including JAK2-STAT5, sos-Ras-MAPK, IRS-2- PI 3-K + and Ca 2+ channel.

Objective To study the clinical nursing significance of ECG monitor in primary PCI for AMI patients and the relation of changes in ECG and the reperfusion of infarction related artery.Methods Regressional analysis was made in ECG changes including different types of arrthymia,degree of ST segment regression,and their relation between the reperfusion of infarction related artery before and after interventional therapy in AMI patients.Results In 468 AMI patients,142 patients had ventricular arrhythmia before therapy.After interrentional therapy,285 patients were co-morbid with accelerated ventricular tachycardia,203 patients with transient ventricular tachycardia or R-on-T phenomenon,62 patients with ventricular fibrillation and received asynchronous electriacal cardioversion.Twenty four patients had new onsent of Ⅱ-Ⅲ degree atrio-ventricular block and 45 patients had bradycardia or sinus arrest.The atrio-ventricular blook in 10 patients before PCI disappeared after the operation.There are 301 patients with apparent ST segment regression(ST segment regressed ≥50%,57 patients with partial ST segment regression,and 29 patients without ST segment changes.Conclusion Arrhythmias always accompanied with IRA reperfusion.Careful monitoring of ECG is essential for patients' safety after AMI.Obvious ST segment is observed in sufficient IRA reperfusion.However,poor regression of ST segment as well as haemodynamics disorder and cardiogenic shock is observed in patients with poor reperfusion or subacute occlusion of IRA.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects on the differentiation and maturation of rat osteoblast (ROB) by naringin and it's metabolite-naringenin. METHODS: Primary ROB were obtained from new born SD rat skull after dissected and digested many times by type II collagenase during sterile condition. Serial subcultivation were proceeded when cells covered 80% culture dish. Cell proliferation was detected by MTT, while the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was adopted as osteogenic differentiation marker to screen the best concentration of naringin and naringenin. The secretion of osteocalcin, bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), oes-teopontin(OPN) and collagen I, the bone mineralized nodulus, even the gene expression of bFGF, IGF-1, Runx-2, Osterix, OPG and RANKL all were compared among the naringin-supplemented group, naringenin-supplemented group and the control. RESULTS: Both naringin and naringenin can significantly improved ALP activity, the secretion of osteocalcin, BMP-2, OPN and collagen I, the bone mineralized nodulus also were raised. Besides, these two drugs also stimulated the expression of genes which related to the osteogenesis of ROB. However, naringenin is stronger than naringin in above markers significantly. CONCLUSION: The osteoprotective effects of naringenin is stronger than naringin at enhancing the osteogenic differentiation of ROB, suggesting that naringin can be administered via oral and its metabolites developed higher activity to prevent osteoporosis. These results may provide a guide for the new drug develop and dosage forms design during osteoporosis therapy.

Objective To investigate the concentrations of formaldehyde in newly decorated apartments. Methods In this study we monitored the concentrations of formaldehyde in indoor air of 28 newly decorated apartments and offices and furnishings. In order to analysis the correlation between formaldehyde concentration of indoor air and personal exposure level, 17 persons' exposure levels were measured by personal air monitoring in 2 offices. Results The medians of formaldehyde concentrations in indoor air and furnishings were 0.062 mg/m3 and 0.260 mg/m3 respectively. The concentration of formaldehyde in furniture was significantly higher than that in indoor air (Z=-5.098,P

Chemical investigation of the whole plants of Valeriana hardwickii has led to the isolation of 11 flavones and 2 monoterpe- noids by using various chromatographic techniques including column chromatography on silica gel and Sephadex LH-20, preparative TLC, and preparative HPLC. Their structures were identified by spectroscopic data analysis as syzalterin (1), 6-methylapigenin (2), 5-hydroxy-7,4'-dimethoxyflavone (3), genkwanin (4), acacetin (5), apigenin (6), quercetin (7), tricin (8), (-)-farrerol (9), sosakuranetin (10), 5,3',4'-trihydroxy-7-methoxyflavanone (11), (-)-bornyl ferulate ( 12) , and (-)-bornyl caffeate ( 13). All compounds were isolated from this plant for the first time, while compounds 1, 9-13 were obtained from this genus for the first time.

To make a systematic analysis on literatures concerning traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) advices in Treatise on Febrile Diseases, and summarize the main connotations of traditional Chinese medicine advices, relevant TCM advices in Treatise on Febrile Diseases were collected, screened, compared, summarized and analyzed according to TCM dosage form preparation methods, TCM administration methods, medication contraindications and nursing after TCM administration. The literatures concerning medications in Treatise on Febrile Diseases were consulted, summarized and compared to standardize medicine advices and facilitate rational clinical application of TCMs. The standard medicine advices were as follows. The boiling water for TCMs shall be tap water and well water. The decoctions that have effects in promoting blood and meridians can be boiled with wine. The decoctions containing toxic components can be boiled with honey. Some TCMs shall be boiled with special methods, e. g. Herba Ephedra that could be boiled before other medicine and skimmed. Japonica rice could be added in decoctions to measure the duration of decoctions. Different dosages were required for different forms (litre, pill, medicine spoon). Administration times, temperature and frequency shall be adjusted according to target positions, functions and stage of illness. As for dietary contraindications during medication, thick porridges are recommended, where foods impacting medicine efficacy are prohibited. Regarding nursing after medication is important to recover physical functions, particularly warm porridges can go with diaphoretic recipes, while thick porridges can go with purgative recipes. And drug efficacies shall be defined by observing urine and excrements, and blood form. In conclusion, Treatise on Febrile Diseases is the first book that discusses TCM advices and records them in details. In this study, new standard medicine advices were proposed to provide important basis for improving clinical advices of TCMs and supports for developing the TCM dispensing technology.
