Objective To extract high quality genomic DNA of Cordia dicholoma seeds by using different methods;To provide references for researches on genomic DNA of Cordia dicholoma seeds. Methods Genomic DNA of Cordia dicholoma seeds was extracted through improved CTAB method and improved SDS method. Purity and concentration of obtained DNA were detected by spectrophotometry and agarose gel electrophoresis. Results The results of spectrophotometry showed that the purity of genomic DNA obtained through improved CTAB method was better than improved SDS method. Genomic DNA extracted through improved CTAB method was without protein and RNA pollution. The results of agarose gel electrophoresis showed that electrophoresis of genomic DNA obtained through the two methods both had the main belt. However, genomic DNA extracted through improved SDS method degraded more than improved CTAB method. Conclusion Improved CTAB method can obtain relatively high quality genomic DNA of Cordia dicholoma seeds.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the water extraction technology of Punica granatum peel and flowers in Muzha supposito-ry. METHODS:Using total tannin,ellagic acid contents as evaluation indexes,extration time,times,the amount of solvents as in-vestigation factors,L9(34)orthogonal test was adopted to optimize the water extraction technology of P. granatum flowers and peel. And verification test was conducted. RESULTS:The optimal extraction technology of total tannin and ellagic acid in P. granatum peel and flowers was as follow as 10-fold water reflux extraction for 3 times with 2 herbs,0.5 h every time. The average content of total tannin and ellagic acid extracted from 3 batches of herbs was 151.69 mg/g (RSD=1.15%,n=3),24.59 mg/g (RSD=1.41%,n=3)in the verification test,respectively. CONCLUSIONS:The optimized extraction technology is stable,feasible,and can be used for extracting the total tannin and ellagic acid in P. granatum peel and flowers.

BACKGROUNDHigh uric acid (UA) levels and metabolic syndrome (MS) are risk factors for atherosclerotic diseases. Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) is a valid and reproducible measurement by which to assess arterial stiffness and a surrogate marker of atherosclerosis. However, little is known about the relationship between them, especially in elderly Chinese with MS components who are at high risk for atherosclerotic diseases.
METHODSOne thousand and twenty Chinese subjects (159 women) older than 60 years of age (mean age (70.6 ± 5.7) years) with at least one MS component underwent routine laboratory tests, and baPWV measurements were analyzed.
RESULTSParticipants were divided into four groups by MS components. The mean age did not significantly differ among the MS component groups. We found that not only the diagnostic factors (blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), lipids, glucose) of MS but also baPWV, UA, insulin, homeostasis model of assessment for insulin resistence index (HOMAIR) levels increased, and high density lipoprotein (HDL)-C decreased with an increased number of MS components (test for trend P < 0.05). The association between UA and baPWV was observed after adjustment for gender, age, blood pressure, BMI, serum creatinine and high density lipoprotein, and insulin resistance (r = 0.186, P < 0.0001). There were increases in the odds ratios for the association between the number of components of MS, UA and baPWV, even after adjustment for traditional risk factors. However, after adjustment for insulin or HOMA-IR, there were no significant differences in the multivariate odds ratios among the number of MS components for UA.
CONCLUSIONSThe UA level is positively associated with baPWV and MS, but the association between UA and MS is dependent on insulin resistance. Furthermore, baPWV is independently associated with MS in our study population.

ObjectiveTo study the effects of health management on elderly patients with metabolic syndrome and lower extremity arterial disease.Methods A total of 118 metabolic syndrome( MS ) patients with ankle-brachial index (ABI) < 0.9 and no intermittent claudication were randomly assigned to the control group( n =60,receiving pharmacologic therapy ) or health management group ( n =58,receiving intensive health management + pharmacologic therapy).Blood pressure,ABI,total cholesterol (TC),and fasting blood glucose(FBS) were tested before and 12 after the intervention.Results Clinical data were comparable between the two groups at baseline.After 12-months' intervention,systolic blood pressure(SBP) and FBS in both groups were significantly decreased,especially in the health management group[SBP:(141 ± 10)mm Hg(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa) vs(146±11) mm Hg,t =2.581,P=0.011; FBS:(5.32 ±1.33) mmol/L vs ( 5.92 ± 1.61 ) mmol/L,t =2.231,P =0.028].TC ( 5.51 ± 0.51 ) mmol/L vs ( 5.11 ± 0.49 ) mmol/L,(t=4.307,P=0.000) and ABI(0.77 ±0.17 vs 0.84 ±0.19,t=2.091,P=0.039) of the health management group were significantly improved at 12 months.Patients in the health management group also showed higher SF-36 scores than those in the control group( physical functioning:72.2 ± 12.4 vs 65.2 ±20.1,t =2.268,P =0.025 ; emotion:73.9 ± 18.0 vs 65.6 ± 21.1,t =2.295,P =0.023 ; mental health:63.9 ± 13.3vs 58.3 ± 12.5,t =2.358,P =0.020 ).Conclusion Compared with medication,health management and pharmacologic therapy could significantly improve clinical parameters and quality of life of elderly MS patients combined with peripheral arterial disease.

Objective To study the effects of health management on cardiovascular events in the elderly patients with hypertension. Methods A total of 182 elderly patients with hypertension were randomly assigned to the control group (n = 61 ), pharmacologic therapy group (n = 61 ) or health management group ( n = 60). Serum biomarkers, brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity ( baPWV ), and blood pressure were tested at baseline and after intervention. Results There were no differences between the 2 groups in clinical characteristics at baseline. The average following-up period was (21 ± 7 ) months. The improvement of systolic blood pressure ( t = 3.915, P = 0. 000 ), pulse pressure ( t = 3. 966, P = 0. 000), and baPWV ( t = 3. 093, P = 0. 002) in the health management group was more significant than the control group;the systolic blood pressure ( t = 2. 008, P= 0. 046 ) was bitterly improved than the pharmacologic therapy group. The accumulative survival rate of the health management group (96. 7% ) was higher than the control group (83.6%; x2 =5. 921 ,P =0. 015) ,similar to the pharmacologic therapy group (93.3%; x2 =2. 821,P=0.091 ). Decreased systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse pressure and baPWV were protective factors. After adjusted by age and gender,the improvement of systolic blood pressure was found to be an independent protective factors ( RR = 0. 75, P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion Health management in elderly patients with hypertension could more significantly reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective To study the effects of health management on blood pressure and lifestyle of hypertensive outpatients.Methods A total of 319 hypertensive outpatients were randomly assigned to the control group (n =160) or the health management group (n =159).Pharmacologic therapy was given to the control group,while in the health management group,intensive health management combined with pharmacologic therapy was conducted.Blood pressure,height,body weight (BW),total cholesterol (TC),and fasting blood glucose (FBG) of the participants were measured and compared at baseline and 12 months.Results There were no significant differences of clinical characteristics between two groups at baseline.After 12 months' intervention,more significant decrease of systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure was found in the health management group (t values were 2.701 and 2.306,respectively;both P < 0.05).There were statistically significant differences of body mass index (BMI) and serum TC levels between the control and the health management group (t values were 2.111 and 2.227,respectively ;P < 0.05).After the intervention,two groups showed no significant difference in current cigarette smoking (x2=2.787,P > 0.05).The participants in the health management group showed improved physical exercises,diet,and adherence to treatment at the end of the observation (x2 values were 59.459,52.018,6.321 and 5.392,respectively; all P < 0.05).Conclusion Compared with pharmacologic therapy,health management combined with pharmacologic therapy could significantly improve clinical parameters and life style of hypertensive patients.
