Objective To discuss the present situation of nearly five years of traditional Chinese medicine for the diagnosis and treatment of children with bronchial asthma,confirmed that the curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of the disease is reliable,thus to provide certain theoretical basis for further research in the future.

To investigate the changes of cardiac myosin ATPase and its isoenzyme in early stage of cardiac hypertrophy following myocardial infarction(MI), we studied myosin ATPase activitzy, isoenyme distriibution and myocardial fiber diameter of uninfarcted ventricu lar sfptum, 9 aed 21 days after operation in MI rats. The results showed that coincident with the increases in myocardial fiber diameter on 9 days after MI, both myosin ATPase activity and V_1 isoenzyme amount were depressed. These changes were more pronounced on 21 after MI. It is suggested that with the development of myocardial hypertrophy in early stage of MI, adaptive changes in myosin ATPase activity and isoenzyme distribution occur.

Objective To study the effect of baicalin on the expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) in cultured human periodontal ligament (HPDL) cells. Methods Small interfering RNA (siRNA) eukaryotic expression vector targeted transforming growth factor βⅡ receptor (TGF-β RⅡ) was constructed and transfected into T cells. HPDL cells with T cells transfected with siRNA or not were placed in the culture medium that had been added with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and baicalin. The obtained solution was divided into six groups according to the components (group Ⅰ: HPDL cells+LPS+T cells transfected with siRNA1+baicalin;group Ⅱ: HPDL cells+LPS+T cells transfected with siRNA1; group Ⅲ: HPDL cells+LPS+T cells+baicalin; group Ⅳ: HPDL cells+LPS+T cells; group Ⅴ: HPDL cells+baicalin; group Ⅵ: HPDL cells) and was cultured for 48 hours. RT-PCR was used to observe the effect of baicalin on the expression of OPG-RANKL in HPDL cells. Results The ratio of RANKL/OPG in group Ⅰ was lower than that in group Ⅱ (P<0.01) and higher than that in group Ⅲ (P<0.01); The ratio of RANKL/OPG in gronp Ⅲ was lower than that in group Ⅳ (P<0.01); the ratio of RANKL/ OPG in group Ⅳ was higher than that in group Ⅵ (P<0.01); the ratio of RANKL/OPG in group Ⅴ was lower than TGF-β signaling transduction plays an important role in the effect of baicalin on the RANKL/OPG ratio in HPDL cells.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by polyarthritis.Numerous agents with varying mechanisms are used in the treatment of RA,but there is no radical cure.Interleukin-6 (IL-6) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of RA.Agents targeting IL-6 such as tocilizumab (TCZ) attracted significant attention as a promising agent in RA treatment.This article reviewed the key efficacy and safety data from clinical trials of TCZ,as well as six candidate IL-6 blockers including sarilumab,ALX-0061,sirukumab,MEDI5117,clazakizumab,and olokizumab,and their future perspectives in the treatment of RA.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for simultaneous determination of puerarin,berberine hydrochloride and ba-icalin in Erxieting syrup. METHODS:HPLC was performed on the column of Kromasil-C18 with mobile phase of methanol-0.2%Phosphoric acid solution (gradient elution) at flow rate of 1.0 ml/min,column temperature was 30 ℃,detection wavelength was 275 nm,and the volume injection was 10 μl. RESULTS:The linear was 10.43-83.44 μg/ml for puerarin,10.71-85.68 μg/ml for ber-berine hydrochloride and 12.58-100.64 μg/ml for baicalin(r≥0.999 3);RSDs of precision,stability and reproduciblity tests were lower than 2%;recoveries were 98.25%-100.87%(RSD=0.92%,n=6),99.41%-101.40%(RSD=0.68%,n=6)and 98.13%-99.76%(RSD=0.57%,n=6),respectively. CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,reliable,can be used for the quality control of Erxiet-ing syrup.

We observed the effects of testosterone (T) on myosin ATPase activity and its isoenzyme distribution of noninfarcted myocardium in male infarcted rats. 21 days after myocardial infarction (MI), both myocardial fiber diameter and myosin ATPase activity were increased in T treated MI group when compared with that of the MI group (P

Regulatory T cells play an important role in regulating immune responses.Recently,a novel immune Treg cell with phenotype TCRαβ + CD3 + CD4-CD8-NK1.1-was known as the Double-negative T cells (DNT).DNT cells are able to suppress CD4 + and CD8 + T cells,B cells as well as NK cells and dendritic cells(DCs) and play an important role in regulating immune responses in models of autoimmunity,infection,inflammatory disease,transplantation and tumor immunity.Now DNT cells have already become a hot point in the research of the immunotherapy.This article mainly introduces the possible sources of DNT cells and the mechanisms of their functions.

Objective To summarize the key points of nursing the patients with simple 46 XY gonadal digenesis syndrome. Method Mental care and full preparation like nursing of the incisions , close observation of pains and nursing of adverse reactions from chemotherapy were critical for ensuring the patient′s discharge from hospital. Result All patients′height increased, secondary sex symdrome growed with armpit and pubic air growed. Conclusion Good mental nursing and targed professional nursing are critical for patients′health.

Objective:To develop a method for the simultaneous determination of vinyl chloride and vinylidenechloride in drug packaging materials containing polyvinyl chloride /polyvinylidene chloride by HS-GC.Methods: A Stabilwax (30.0 m ×0.25 mm, 0.25 μm) capillary column and an FID detector were adopted .The headspace equivalent temperature was 80℃for 30 min and the col-umn temperature was 40℃.The inlet temperature was 190℃and the detector temperature was 210℃.N2 was used as the carrier gas . The flow rate was 1.0 ml · min-1 .Results: Vinyl chloride had a good linear relationship within the range of 0.5-2.5 μg ( r =0.996 7), and the average recovery was 90.4%(RSD=0.9%, n=9).Vinylidenechloride had a good linear relationship within the range of 1.0-5.0 μg (r=0.999 0), and the average recovery was 90.0%(RSD=0.6%, n=9).Conclusion: The method is fast and accurate in the simultaneous determination of vinyl chloride and vinylidenechloride in drug packaging materials containing polyvinyl chloride/polyvinylidene chloride .

Objective To investigate the qualitative diagnostic features of less than 2 cm atypical solitary breast nodules.Methods 52 patients diagnosed with atypical solitary breast nodules as well as the mammography and clinical characteristics were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among those 52 cases of nodular lesions,there were 23 benign nodules and 29 malignant nodules.Among these 29 malignant cases,26 cases were misdiagnosed as benign lesions,the X-ray of which showed the margin of nodules were mostly smooth,the density relatively homogenic yet with no sign of lobulation.Meanwhile,19 cases were diagnosed as malignant lesions, the X-ray of which showed irregular nodules,uneven density with or without multiple calcification,their margin lobulated,ragged, and ambient structure irregularity.In some case their local skin thickened and subcutaneous axungia were turbid.There were 7 cases unable to make timely diagnosis,the X-ray of which showed more or less regular form,uneven or almost even density,ambient structure barely regular,lack typical features.Conclusion To make accurate diagnosis,it is necessary to understand the characteristics of the pathology X-ray of different lesions,the atypical manifestation,plus comprehensive and detailed analysis,combing ultrasound and clinical palpation,MRI,biopsy and follow-ups when needed.
