OBJECTIVE:To observe therapeutic efficacy and safety of Leonurus artemisia injection combined with carboprost tromethamine for preventing postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) of pregnant women after cesarean section. METHODS:177 pregnant women undergoing cesarean section were randomly divided into control group(87 cases)and observation group(90 cases). Preg-nant women of both groups received cesarean section. Control group was given intramuscular injection of oxytocin 20 U in uterine muscle wall above the incision after the foetus parturition,and given intravenous dripping of oxytocin 20 U added into 0.9% sodi-um chloride 250 mL;4 h after the operation,the pregnant women received intramuscular injection of oxytocin 10 U,every 12 hours,for 3 days. Observation group was given intramuscular injection of L. artemisia injection 2 mL and Carboprost tromethamine injection 1 mL in uterine incision after the foetus parturition;4 h after the operation,the pregnant women received intramuscular in-jection of L. artemisia injection 2 mL and Carboprost tromethamine injection 1 mL,and then give L. artemisia injectien 2 mL,ev-ery 12 hours,for 3 days. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were observed as well as blood loss during operation,2 h after operation and 24 h after operation,the amount of hemoglobin(Hb)before operation and 24 h after operation,height of uterine fundus 3,7 d after operation,the occurrence of ADR. RESULTS:The total response rate of observation group was significantly higher than that of control group;blood loss during operation,2 h after operation and 24 h after operation,height of uterine fundus 3,7 d af-ter operation were also significantly than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in Hb of pregnant women between 2 groups before operation(P>0.05). 24 h after operation,Hb of pregnant women in control group was significantly lower than before operation and observation group,with statistical significance(P<0.05);there was no sta-tistical significance in Hb of observation group between before operation and 24 h after operation(P>0.05). There was no statisti-cal significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:L. artemisia injection combined with car-boprost tromethamine shows significant therapeutic efficacy for PPH of pregnant women underwent cesarean section,can signifi-cantly reduce intraoperative and postoperative blood loss,accelerates the recovery of uterus without increasing the rate of ADR.

BACKGROUND:Diabetes mel itus can give rise to bone metabolic disorders that may involve long-term hyperglycemia, hypoglycemic agents, diet control, estrogen, insulin-like growth factor, leptin, body mass, sex and age.
OBJECTIVE:To establish type 2 diabetic rat models, and to explore the influence of type 2 diabetes on bone metabolism.
METHODS:High-fat and high-glucose diets combining with 35 mg/kg streptozotocin were used to induce type 2 diabetic model in seven male Sprague-Dawley rats (diabetic group). Thirteen rats in control group were given intraperitoneal injection of the same amount of citric acid and sodium citrate buffer. At 4 weeks after modeling, the bone density of rats was serum detected by dual-energy X-ray, levels of fasting blood-glucose, cholesterol, triacylglycerol, serum calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase, fasting insulin, osteocalcin and C-terminal telopeptide-I were measured, and morphology of bone was observed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with control group, (1) the rat body mass and fasting blood-glucose kept on an overt rise in the diabetic group (P<0.05);(2) levels of cholesterol, triacylglycerol, fasting insulin and alkaline phosphatase, as wel as insulin resistance index were significantly increased, but insulin sensitivity index was significantly decreased in the diabetic group (P<0.05). (3) There were no significant differences in the levels of serum calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin and C-terminal telopeptide-I between two groups (P>0.05). (4) In the diabetic group, thinner and sparse bone trabeculae were split presenting more free broken ends;(5) the bone density in lumbar spine, double femoral, pelvic and thoracolumbar spine were al significantly decreased (P<0.05). (6) In conclusion, the type 2 diabetic rat model can be successful y induced by 5-week feeding high-fat and high-glucose diets combining with intraperitoneal injection of 35 mg/kg streptozotocin;these mode rats hold some characters, such as hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, diminished bone density, and accelerated bone resorption.

Objective To assess the efficacy of using four kinds of proteins / peptides to distinguish the tuberculosis patients from healthy people. Methods A, B, C and D were used to represent four proteins /peptides with 1 060, 1 944, 2 081 and 3 954 of mass to charge ratio (m / z) in serum, respectively. Levels A, B, C and D in serum of 57 patients with tuberculosis and 30 healthy people were determined by using the surface-enhanced laser desorption-ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF-MS). Then the differences of levels of f A, B, C and D were anlyzed between tuberculosis patients and healthy people. The efficacy of distinguishing tuberculosis patient from healthy people were evaluated by using diagnostic test evaluation method. Results (1) The levels of A, B, C and D were 1 ± 11, 1 597 ± 3 102, 460 ± 765 and 1 208 ± 1 003 in tuberculosis patients, while they were 123 ± 201, 47 ± 98, 36 ± 93 and 397 ± 355 in healthy people. (2) The area under the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.644, 0.848, 0.735 and 0.810 respectively. The serum levels of A, B, C and D could be used to distinguish tuberculosis patient from healthy people and the cut-off values of A, B, C and D were ≤166, ≥318, ≥48 and ≥728, respectively. Conclusions B, C and D have better performances to distinguish tuberculosis patients from healthy people , which may be regarded as new promising candidate markers for diagnosis of tuberculosis.
