Objective To research the influence of Alismatis combined with bifendate on cytochrome P 450 in rat liver microsomes. Methods Twenty four healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into four groups:the experimental groups were given Alismatis at 140 mg·kg-1 , bifendateat 2.18 mg·kg-1 , and Alismatis plus bifendate at 140 mg+2.18 mg·kg-1 ,while the blank control group was given 0. 9% sodium chloride at 5 Ml · kg-1 . The liver microsomes were prepared upon differential centrifugation 7 days after administration.The microsomal protein concentration, cytochrome P450 content, Cytb5 content, NADPH cytochrome C reductase activity and amino pyrine N removal of methyl enzyme activity, erythromycin demethylase activity were determined by UV respectively. Results Compared with the normal control group, the combination use of Alismatis and bifendate redued the microsome content and cytochrome P450 content, while it increased the NADPH cytodrome C activity. The concentrations of cytochrome P450 were both increased by Alismatis and bifendate. Conclusion In contrast, combination ofAlismatis and bifendate reduces cytochrome P450 content which has a negative effect on phase I drug metabolism.Moreover, the combination of Alismatis and bifendate induced NADPH- cytochrome C reductase, accelerated the reduction of cytochrome P450 and inhibited cytochrome P450 isoform CYP2E1 activity.

Objective:To explore the clinical value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT in panniculitis presenting as fever of unknown origin (FUO). Methods:Patients with FUO ( n=503) who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT examination in Peking University People′s Hospital between January 2013 and December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, and those with final diagnosis of panniculitis were enrolled. The clinical and imaging data of patients with panniculitis were evaluated. Results:Five of the 503(0.99%) patients with FUO who underwent PET/CT imaging were diagnosed with panniculitis. Their age ranged from 41 to 76 years, and 3 of them were females. The main clinical manifestation was fever. Laboratory tests showed an increase in erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein. The 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging found localized FDG uptake foci in multiple adipose tissue, with maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max) ranging from 0.8 to 5.0. Those lesions located in subcutaneous adipose tissue ( n=3), mesenteric adipose tissue ( n=3) and other adipose tissue in abdominal cavity and retro peritoneum ( n=1). Diffusely increased FDG uptake of the spleen was found in 4 patients, diffusely increased FDG uptake of bone marrow was found in 3 patients, and multiple reactive hyperplasia lymph nodes was found in 2 patients. In addition, in 2 patients with the scanning field extended to the mid-thigh, high FDG uptake of the polyarticular synovium was also seen. Conclusions:Panniculitis has some characteristics on 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging. 18F-FDG PET/CT is helpful for etiological diagnosis of FUO caused by panniculitis.

Objective:To further understand the etiological distribution of fever of unknown origin (FUO) in patients underwent 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT imaging, and to explore the significance of 18F-FDG PET/CT in the diagnosis of different types of diseases in FUO patients. Methods:From January 2013 to August 2019, the clinical and PET/CT image data of 466 FUO patients (194 males, 272 females, age: 3-91(52.7±20.9) years) in Peking University People′s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The etiological distribution of FUO patients was analyzed according to the final clinical diagnosis. PET/CT imaging manifestations were analyzed for different types of diseases in FUO patients. The role of 18F-FDG PET/CT in differential diagnosis for FUO was evaluated through clinical questionnaire. Data were analyzed by using χ2 test. Results:The common disease types in FUO patients were rheumatic and immune disease (48.7%, 227/466), infection (28.5%, 133/466) and malignant tumor (11.2%, 52/466). For PET/CT imaging, 95.5% (445/466) of the patients were positive, of which 313 (70.3%, 313/445) were found to have focal lesions, and the other 132 (29.7%, 132/445) showed only nonspecific abnormal uptake. Lesions in different types of diseases were varied in the location, morphological changes as well as FDG uptake. The results of the questionnaire showed that PET/CT imaging could benefit 95.9% (447/466) of the patients in the FUO diagnosis and treatment. PET/CT reached direct etiological diagnosis of malignant tumors more frequently than other types of diseases ( χ2 values: 14.408-25.466, all P<0.001). PET/CT helped or directly reached the etiological diagnosis of rheumatologic diseases more frequently than infection and unknown cause group( χ2 values: 7.922, 9.647, both P<0.05). Conclusion:18F-FDG PET/CT imaging has high clinical value in the diagnosis of FUO etiology and can provide multilevel diagnostic information.

In this research, a comprehensive examination of historical materia medica, medical literature, medical books and contemporary literature was conducted to systematically compile and verify the naming, origin, geographical variations, quality, medicinal properties and processing of Tremolitum, and combined with the physical analysis of 15 batches of samples, with a view to providing a basis for the quality evaluation. The evidences unequivocally support Yangqishi as the rectification of name, while alternative aliases include Baishi, Shisheng, Yangjushi and Yangshi. The primary source of Tremolitum has been the silicate hornblende mineral tremolite throughout recorded history, and its accompanied minerals are mainly chlorite, talc schist, anthophyllite asbestos, etc. In ancient times, the main production area of Tremolitum was situated in the "Yaoshan Mountain" region of Jinan, Shandong province. Presently, it is primarily produced in Hubei, Henan, Shanxi, Hebei and Shandong provinces. The ancient quality evaluation of Tremolitum includes "white color", "wolf teeth", "cloud head and rain foot", "heron hair", etc. While, modern materia medica mostly evaluates its quality in terms of color, luster and texture, including the characteristics of needle bundle, grayish-white, glossy and easy to be twisted and crushed. Tremolitum is slightly warm, non-toxic, and possesses a salty taste. It is associated with the kidney meridian, known for its benefits in nourishing the fire of the gate of life, warming the kidneys and strengthening the Yang. Common processing methods include fire calcination, elutriation, and processing with wine. Additionally, there is an exclusive processing method known as the "ascending Tremolitum method". Through the X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysis, the commercially available Tremolitum is mainly composed of tremolite[Ca2Mg5(Si4O11)2(OH)2], and the accompanied minerals are calcite and quartz, etc. Its color includes white, light gray, light green and so on, and it is weight and soft texture, irregular cross-section, with obvious fibrous texture and mostly glassy luster. Among the commercially available Tremolitum, samples with high content of tremolite are characterized by high quality features, such as "white color", "heron hair" and "ease of tearing". Also, Tremolitum is the Fe-bearing heterogeneous species of tremolite, and the two are often symbiotic. Therefore, by the herbal textual research and the comparison of the properties and composition of Tremolitum and its similar species, it has been verified that the primary source of Tremolitum is the silicate hornblende minerals tremolite and actinolite.
