Objective To analyze the effect of implementing traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) clinical pathway on family sickbed patients.Methods Those family sickbed patients with herpes zoster or facial neuritis were involved in this study.Their medical records and data of ‘Family sickbed quality control scale’ were collected,in which there are methods of TCM clinical pathway,decoction of the Chinese Medicine,ingredients and treatment procedures of the topically used TCMs,and acupuncture treatment procedures were documented.The family sickbed days,prognosis,informed rate and satisfaction rate were analyzed before and after TCM clinical pathway treatment.Results In the treatment group,the family sickbed days (11.67± 1.91)d and referral rate 12.20％ (10/82) were significantly lower (P＜ 0.01) than those in the control group [(1 3.88 ± 2.61) d,50.00％ (41/82) respectively].The rate of cure87.80％ (72/82),the rate of informed patient 97.56％ (80/82) and the rate of satisfaction91.46％ (75/82) were significantly higher(P＜ 0.01)than those in the control group [50.00％ (41/82)、65.85％ (54/82)、50.00％ (41/82) respectively].Conclusion The clinical pathways for family sickbed patients with herpes zoster or facial neuritis were effective.

Objective To investigate the biological function of SPA-PEI conjugate(staphylococcal protein A-polyethyleneimine cross-linker),which is one key component for construction of a novel antibody-targeted DNA delivery system.Methods The binding capacity of SPA-PEI conjugate with multiple sources of IgG was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and neutralization inhibition assay.The binding capacity of SPA-PEI conjugate with DNA fragment was determined by DNA gel retardation assay,and its DNA condensing ability was measured by Ethidium bromide exclusion assay.Results SPA-PEI conjugate could bind well to many species-derived IgGs.SPA-PEI conjugate had no significant effect on the binding properties of SPA.SPAPEI conjugate could neutralize negative charges of the plasmid DNA or DzTi.Its DNA condensing ability was nearly same to that of free PEI,which suggested a excellent DNA condensing ability of the SPA-PEI conjugate.Conclusion SPA-PEI cross-linkers prepared by this project group maintained the biological activity of SPA and PEI.SPA-PEI cross-linkers could be used for the construction of a novel antibody-targeted non-virus DNA delivery system.

In order to study the excretion of genistein (GEN) capsule, an estrogen drugs, in human, 30 healthy volunteers were selected and orally administered 50, 100, and 300 mg genistein in an parallel study. Genistein were determined in urine by LC-MS/MS and glucuronidated genistein (GENG) were indirectly determined with enzymatic hydrolysis in urine by LC-MS/MS, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed by DAS software (ver 2.0). The result showed that the concentrations of genistein in human urine were less than 1% of the GENG, and the cumulative excretion of GEN in 48 h were 0.037, 0.134, and 0.142 mg, separately, and the urinary excretion percentage were only 0.07%, 0.13%, and 0.05%, separately. But the cumulative excretion of GENG in 48 h was 5.3, 13.8, and 15.4 mg, separately, and the urinary excretion percentage were 10.6%, 13.8%, and 5.1%, separately, and the max urinary excretive rate was 0.4, 1.0, and 1.4 mg x h(-1), separately (tmax were 6 h). Studies showed that part of drug excreted through kidney in a form of GENG in human, and the cumulative urinary excretion and the maximum excretion rate of GENG showed a proportional increase conditioned with the dose in the range of 50-100 mg, but showed non-linear increase feature in 300 mg.

Objective To evaluate the prognostic values of common definition compared to traditional definition of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients with normal serum creatinine (SCr). Methods Patients undergoing percutaneous coronary angiology or intervention with normal baseline SCr were enrolled prospectively. Those who were diagnosed as CIN according to common definition were divided into two groups based on the peak increase from baseline in the SCr concentration within 48 ~ 72 hours after the procedure: ≥ 44.2 μmol/L (CIN44.2 group, in common with traditional definition), ≥25% of baseline to < 44.2 μmol/L (CIN25%-44.2 group, interval between the two definitions). Hospital stay and long-term outcomes were compared among CIN44.2, CIN25%-44.2, and non-CIN groups. Results Of all 3,044 patients enrolled, 302 (9.9%) patients developed CIN according to common definition including CIN44.2 occurred in 56 (1.8%) patients and CIN25%-44.2 in 246 (8.1%) patients. Patients in CIN44.2 group indicated significant longer hospital stay and long-term outcomes compared with non-CIN group (P < 0.05). However, patients in CIN25%-44.2 group had similar in-hospital mortality and long-term cumulative risk of major clinical adverse events (MACE) and death with non-CIN group (all, P = 1.00). Multivariate Cox proportional hazard analyses also demonstrated that CIN25%-44.2 did not associate with long-term MACE (HR 1.16, P = 0.645) and death (HR 0.98, P = 0.964) after adjusting for potential confounding factors. Conclusions For patients with normal baseline SCr, common definition based on traditional definition of CIN is unreasonable and overestimates the incidence of CIN, whose extension of traditional denifition proves no significant clinical value.

AIM:To explore the protective effect of ischemic preconditioning on myocardial capillary bed. METHODS: Anesthetized open-chest dogs in ischemic preconditioning (IP) group ( n =6) were subjected to 5 min ischemia and 5 min reperfusion for 4 times in left descending coronary artery (LDA) while the dogs in sham-operated (SO) group ( n =6) were observed for 40 min without any stimulating. Myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) was performed before the surgery, at the end of the first and the fourth ischemia and reperfusion period, respectively. Myocardial samples in ischemic area were obtained for capillaries ultrastructure examination and their quantitative analysis was conducted by corresponding imagine analyzing system, then compared within group and between control group. RESULTS: (1) Comparing fourth 5 min ischemia with first one, the percents of area defect in minimum (AD min%) by MCE decreased from 32.6%?5.7% to 21.8%?5.2%( P

This article mainly elaborated around the four common categories of objective classification indicators, including constitution-gene and pathway, symptoms and signs, imaging examinations and biological indicators. We summarized advantages and limitations in all the objective classification categories, and put forward that both human secretory immunoglobulins A and salivary cortisol have the potential to be important classification indicators in constitution of traditional Chinese medicine, which might bring objective and quantitative criterion for constitution recognition and constitutional interventions in the future.

Objective To investigate the potential predictors and treatment for secondary sexual dysfunction following pelvic fracture. Methods 184 patients were included in this study from multiple centers in Guangzhou city, to find the potential predictors for secondary sexual dysfunction following pelvic fracture. 76 patients were identified to be secondary sexual dysfunction, which were randomized into three treatment groups, who were given continuous low dose of tadalafil (5 mg/time)combined with oral sildenafil (50 mg/time), tadalafil (5 mg/time) only and sildenafil (50 mg/time) only respectively, and followed by evaluation of therapeutic effect according to IIEF-5 questionnaire and Sexual Encounter Profile (SEP) diaries to evaluate the effect. Results Risk factors including age and the type of pelvic fractures but not urethral injury was associated with the complication of secondary sexual dysfunction . After treatment for twelve weeks, the IIEF-5 score in A groups (18.1 ± 4.2) was significantly higher than that in B (16.4 ± 3.4) or C (16.6 ± 4.0) group (P<0.05). The positive rate of response to SEP2 and SEP3 in A group were 73.0% and 79.4% respectively, both of which were remarkably higher than those in B or C group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Secondary sexual dysfunction following pelvic fracture is associated with age and type of pelvic fractures. Continuous low dose of tadalafil (5 mg/time) combined with sildenafil (50 mg/time) provides superior effective treatment for secondary sexual dysfunction following pelvic fracture.
