Objective To analyze the relationship between clinical features of infantile cough after infection and microelements in peripheral blood, and to observe the therapeutic of treating this cough with Milkvetch Root and Radix Glycyrrhizae. Methods 75 infantile patients were randomly recruited into a therapeutic group and a reference group. 39 patients in the therapeutic group were treated with Huangqi Zhusheye and Tablete Glycyrrhiza, while 36 patients in the reference group were treated with Azithromycin. The therapeutic effects were evaluated after the treatment. Meanwhile,microelements in peripheral blood of the 75 patients were assayed and made a contrast to 40 healthy children. Results The contents of Fe, Zn, and Mg in peripheral blood of the 75 patients dropped on different levels, comparing to the healthy children.The therapeutic effects of the therapeutic group was much better than the reference group with significant difference (P＜0.05).Liver and renal functional lesion was unseen in both groups after the treatment. Conclusion Infantile past-infection cough may related with the decrease of Mg, Fe, and Zn. Combined usage of Milkvetch Root and Radix Glycyrrhizae clinically has good therapeutic effects to this disease.

Objective To compare the therapeutic effects of three therapeutics to earlier primary gastric diffuse large B cell lymphoma(PG-DLBCL).Methods By reviewing a data-base of 66 patients with earlier PG-DLBCL from Aug 2000 to Oct 2011 were enrolled,patients were divided into chemotherapy alone(21 cases),radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy(22 cases) and surgery followed chemotherapy group(23 cases),and to comparing the prognosis of the three therapeutics.Results The complete remission rates(CR) of the three groups was 47.6％,77.3％,65.2％ (P ＞ 0.05).The median progression-free survival(PFS)of the three groups in 66 patients was 61.5,90.4 and 79.1 months,the radiotherapy combined group was proven to be significantly better than chemotherapy alone group and surgery followed chemotherapy group(x2 =6.726,P ＜0.05).The 3-year survival rate of the three groups was 81.6％,90.5％ and 82.6％.The five year survival rate was 72.5％,90.5％,82.6％.There was no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05) in 3-year survival rate and 5-year survival rate.Conclusions Radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy can significantly improve the PFS without increasing the risk of other adverse outcomes,and could be the first treatment way for the earlier PG-DLBCL.

It is to investigate the effect of two kinds of Houttuynia Cordata Injection on preventing and treating H1N1 influenza virus infection in mice. Pneumonia model was set up by intranasal infection of the normal and immunocompromised mice with influenza virus FM1 and PR8. The two injections were administered before and after the administration of virus, separately, and the lung index was observed. The results showed that the two preparations have obvious therapeutic effect on normal mice infected with influenza virus FM1 and PR8. And to FM1, the new injection's effect is better at small dosage. The results also showed that the two preparations have obvious prophylactic effect on immunodepressed mice infected with influenza virus FM1 and PR8. And to PR8, the old injection's effect is better at small dosage. Houttuynia Cordata Injection can improve the mice pneumonia caused by influenza virus H1N1 and decrease the lung index markedly. It has a remarkable preventive and therapeutic effect on H1N1 influenza virus in mice.

Abstract] Objective To investigate the in vivo therapeutic effects of an extract of herb medi-cines, YiGanQingDuKeLi, in combination with adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) on the rebound of duck hepatitis B virus ( DHBV) multiplication after withdrawal of ADV treatment.Methods Peking ducks were infected with DHBV positive serum samples for 7 days and then screened by SYBR Green real-time PCR.The ducks positive for DHBV were randomly divided into five groups including the model control group, the ADV treat-ment group, the herb treatment group, the high-dose combination therapy group and the low-dose combina-tion therapy group.The ducks in the ADV treatment and the herb treatment groups were respectively treated with distilled water and YiGanQingDuKeLi (1.2 g/ml) for 14 days after the treatment of ADV (0.25 mg/ml) for 21 days.The ducks in the high-dose group were treated with YiGanQingDuKeLi (1.2 g/ml) for 14 days after the combined treatment with high-dose YiGanQingDuKeLi (1.2 g/ml) and ADV (0.25 mg/ml) for 21 days.The ducks in the low-dose group were treated with YiGanQingDuKeLi (0.6 g/ml) for 14 days after the combined treatment with YiGanQingDuKeLi (0.6 g/ml) and ADV (0.125 mg/ml) for 21 days.Blood samples were collected from each duck via leg vein after 0, 7, 14 and 21 days of drug adminis-tration and after 7 and 14 days of drug withdrawal.The levels of DHBV-DNA, alanine aminotransferase ( ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase ( AST) in blood serum samples were detected.Results Compared with the model group, the levels of DHBV-DNA, ALT and AST in ducks from the herb treatment group and combined treatment groups were decreased before the discontinuation of ADV treatment ( P<0.05 or P<0.01).Moreover, the titers of DHBV-DNA in ducks treated with high doses of drugs were much lower than those from ADV treatment group.The levels of DHBV-DNA, ALT and AST in ducks treated with herb medi-cine and high doses of drugs remained at relatively low levels after the cessation of ADV treatment, but re-bounded significantly in ducks with ADV treatment.The levels of DHBV-DNA and ALT rebounded slightly in ducks treated with low doses of drugs as compared with those of ADV treatment group ( P<0.01 or P<0.05).Conclusion The treatment of YiGanQingDuKeLi in combination with ADV could inhibit not only the in vivo replication of DHBV, but also the rebound of DHBV multiplication after ADV withdrawal.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic values of procalcitonin (PCT),high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP),white blood cell (WBC)and percentage of neutrocyte (NEU％)in Gramnegative and Gram-positive bacterial blood stream infection in early stage of sepsis in order to investigate the correlation between PCT and APACHE lⅡ score as well as between PCT and SOFA score,and the prognostic value in assessment of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial blood stream infection.Methods Clinical data of patients admitted to ICU from January 2012 through December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.A total of 124 sepsis patients with blood stream infection were checked with PCT,hs-CRP,WBC and NEU％ tests,and APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score were calculated.The differences in APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score were compared between Gram-negative group (n =41) and Gram-positive group (n =83).The correlation between PCT and APACHE Ⅱ score as well as between PCT and SOFA score was analyzed.The differences in diagnostic values of PCT,hs-CRP,WBC and NEU％ between Gram-negative group and Grampositive group were analyzed by using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and it was plotted to assess the prognostic values of PCT,hs-CRP,WBC and NEU％ for septic patients with blood stream infection.Results Compared with Gram-positive group,the levels of PCT [.55.32 (22.01,97.11) vs.2.13 (0.27,5.27)] (P ＜0.01),hs-CRP [105.09 (69.97,186.12) vs.70.54 (42.37,138.63)] (P=0.508),NEU％ [88.30 (75.79,93.52) vs.55.32 (22.01,97.11)] (P=0.302) were higher but WBC was lower [13.59 (10.74,17.58) vs.13.73 (11.32,20.90)] (P=0.058) in Gram-negative group.The ROC curve analysis of PCT showed the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.867 (95％ CI:0.789-0.946).When the optimal cutoff point of PCT was 17.48 ng/mL,the largest Youden's index was found to be 0.661 with 76.9％ sensitivity and 89.2％ specificity.Between two groups,there were significant differences in APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score (27.46 ± 9.60 vs.23.67 ± 7.74,P =0.020;8.05 ±3.38 vs.6.59-±3.45,P =0.028).There was significant difference in diagnostic value between PCT and SOFA (r =0.536,P =0.036) in Gram-negative group but no significant difference in Gram-positive group.Conclusions Higher PCT levels are found in Gram-negative group and it can play a role in differntiation between the Gram-negative group and Gram-positive group rather than hs-CRP,WBC and NEU％.PCT can be a better indicator for evaluation of severity of sepsis as well as for prognosis of sepsis patients with Gram-negative bacterium infection.

Methods HSV-1 infection was induced in BALB/c mice, the expression of HSV VP16 was detected by RTPCR on the 4th, 7th, 10th, 14th, and 21st day. Results The expression of VP16 mRNA decreased in both groups of large and low doses compared with virus group at the same time. Conclusion Gardenia extracts T9 can down-regulate the expression of VP16 mRNA in HSV infected mice's brains, and it may be one of its anti-HSV mechanisms.

This study is to investigate the treatment of Jin Chai antiviral capsule for influenza virus FM1/47 (H1N1) infection. The model of pneumonia was established by dropping influenza virus into the nose of normal mice, real-time PCR and Western blot technique were used to detect the virus load and the interferoninducible transmembrane protein3 (IFITM3) in lung of mice at the 1st day, 3rd day, 5th day and 7th day after affected. The results showed that Jin Chai antiviral capsule in large, middle, small dose groups can decrease virus load significantly at each time point, after being affected (P<0.05, P<0.01), Jin Chai antiviral capsule can increase the interferoninducible transmembrane protein3 in lung of mice, large dose groups are significantly higher in expression of IFITM3 compared with model group at each time point (P<0.05, P<0.01). Middle dose groups are significantly higher in expression of IFITM3 compared with model group at the 3th day and the 5th day (P<0.05), small dose groups are significantly higher in expression of IFITM3 compared with model group at the 3th day (P<0.05). It can be concluded that Jin Chai antiviral capsule exerts antiviral effects against influenzavirus by raised expression of IFITM3.
