Objective To investigate the effects of acupoint massage on labor analgesia efficacy and it's related clinical factors,so to definite the analgesia mechanism and the relationship between the neurotransmitter dopamine and analgesia mechanism.Methods We choosed patients who have been hospitalized in No.1 hospital from March 2009 to September 2009,and divided them into two groups randomly: observation group and control group.Patients in the observation group were treated with acupuncture massage when the production process went into the active phase.Control group indicated that childbirth was naturally without any treatment.We observed the analgesic effect of point massage and the impact of pressure on the uterine contractions.We tested the dopamine level in the blood by fluorescent spectrophotometry before and afte the acupoint massage.We explored the effects of the point massage on the dopamine level in the puerpera.Results The observation group′s pain decreased more than that of the control group.The intensity of contractions in observation group was decreased more obvious than that of the the control group.The serum dopamine levels was significantly lower than that pre-massage(P

Objective To observe the changes of cerebral blood flow velocities and carbon dioxide (CO_2) reactivity of cerebral vessels in children after cardiopulmonary resuscitation,and the relationship between the changes of cerebral blood flow and outcome.Methods The waveforms,cerebral blood flow velocities of left middle cerebral artery and extracranial internal carotid artery were monitored by Transcranial Doppler (TCD) in 35 post-resuscitation children. Glasgow coma score (GCS) was estimated at the same time.They were divided into three groups according to the diastolic blood flow velocities:low perfusion group,high perfusion group and near-normal perfusion group.CO_2 reactivity of cerebral vessels was induced by hyperventilation in 26 children under ventilation.Results In both low and high perfusion groups,GCS and CO_2 reactivity of cerebral vessels were significantly lower than that of near-normal perfusion group (P＜0.05);the numbers of died and withdrawing treatment patients were significantly higher than that of near-normal perfusion group (P＜0.01).Conclusion TCD monitoring is a useful technique for estimating cerebral perfusion,outcome and CO_2 reactivity of cerebral vessels of children after cardiopulmonary resuscitation.A secondary ischemic event may be caused by a forced hyperventilation therapy in the condition without TCD monitoring in post-resuscitation patients.

Objective To evaluate the outcomes of acute lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in bedridden patients by vascular ultrasound monitoring and analyze the influencing factors. Methods Bedridden patients with acute lower extremity DVT diagnosed by vascular ultrasound were recruited from March 2013 to August 2017. All patients accepted the lower extremity deep venous ultrasound after 2 weeks, and the outcomes of DVT were observed. The patients were divided into DVT improvement group and non-improvement group. The relationships between the factors including clinical characteristics, past history, laboratory examinations, medications and outcomes of DVT were analyzed. The statistically significant influencing factors were taken into the multi factor Logistic regression analysis. Results There were 134 bedridden patients with lower extremity DVT, including 85 males and 49 females, with an average age of (63.9 ± 18.1) years. DVT was improved in 32.8% (44/134) patients, and was not improved in 67.2% (90/134) patients. Anticoagulation therapy, increased international normalized ratio, and delayed thrombin time were associated with improved DVT. Non traumatic causes of bed rest and dehydration were associated with not improved DVT. Anticoagulation therapy ( P＝0.021, OR＝2.729, 95% CI 1.162-6.410) and dehydration treatment ( P＝0.032, OR＝0.240, 95% CI 0.065-0.882) were independent risk factors for improvement of lower extremity DVT. Conclusions Anticoagulation therapy may improve DVT of the lower extremities, and dehydration may aggravate the DVT of the lower extremities. Vascular ultrasound can conveniently and dynamically monitor the changes of the lower limbs DVT in bedridden patients.

ObjectiveTo explore and establish the liver injury risk prediction model of indirect toxicity of Chinese medicinals under the condition of compound formulas， and provide new ideas and methods for the study of evaluation of liver injury of Chinese medicinals based on indirect toxicity. MethodsTaking Buguzhi （Fructus Psoraleae） pre-parations as model drug， the combined Chinese medicinals with Buguzhi （Fructus Psoraleae） of high frequency are screened out， and their components and action targets were obtained through TCMSP， TCMIP and PharmMapper databases. The association strength value and risk value of Chinese medicinals that acted on the nuclear factor κB （NF-κB） pathway were analyzed. For those having greater values than the median association strength value and risk value were regarded as indirect Chinese medicinals of liver injury risk. In this way， a prediction model of liver injury risk of Chinese medicinals was constructed based on immune activation-related indirect liver injury process （taking NF-κB pathway as an example）. And verification of the prediction model was performed using Heshouwu （Radix Polygoni Multiflori） preparations. ResultsThe prediction model of liver injury risk based on important immunoactivated pathway （taking NF-κB pathway as an example） found that Yinyanghuo （Herba Epimedii） （association strength value = 0.18， risk value = 0.25） was a Chinese medicinal with potential risk of indirect liver injury within Buguzhi （Fructus Psoraleae） prepartions， which may increase the risk of liver injury by positively regulating Bruton's tyrosine kinase （Btk） and protein kinase C theta （PKCθ） on NF-κB pathway. Further verification of prediction model by Heshouwu （Radix Polygoni Multiflori） preparations showed that Buguzhi （Fructus Psoraleae） （association strength value = 0.25， risk value = 0.33） and Tusizi （Semen Cuscutae） （Semen Cuscutae， association strength value = 0.34， risk value = 0.33） may increase the liver injury risk of Heshouzu. ConclusionThe liver injury risk prediction model of indirect toxicity of Chinese medicinals has been constructed in this study， providing metho-dological reference for the identification of Chinese medicinals of indirect liver injury risk under the condition of compound formulas.

Objective To investigate the potential medication risk by identifying and analyzing the features of liver-related adverse drug reaction (ADR) in pregnant women. Methods A retrospective study was performed for the reports on liver-related ADR in pregnant women from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2016 in HILI Cloud (hilicloud.net). Main clinical features and medication rules were analyzed, and reporting odds ratio ( ROR ) was used to analyze the relative risk of related drugs. Results Methotrexate, mifepristone, and ritodrine were the high-frequency drugs reported for liver-related ADR in pregnant women and were mainly used for termination of ectopic pregnancy and treatment of hydatidiform mole. The relative risk analysis of liver-related ADR showed that in pregnant women, the use of methotrexate ( ROR =37.52, 95% confidence interval [ CI ]=31.35-44.89), progesterone ( ROR =7.33, 95% CI : 2.75-19.59), and dydrogesterone ( ROR =6.58, 95% CI : 2.20-19.69) was strongly associated with the risk of liver injury, and the association of methotrexate with the risk of liver injury in pregnant women was significantly stronger than that in non-pregnant women ( ROR =1.71, 95% CI : 1.47-4.36). Conclusion The potential risk of liver injury should be taken seriously in pregnant women using the drugs such as methotrexate and progesterone, so as to avoid serious adverse reactions.
