This article was aimed to study on clinical application of Shanyao (Dioscorea opposita Thunb.) in each historical period, which can offer some suggestions for clinical doctors to use Shanyao correctly. A total of 668 pieces of formulae containing Shanyao were recorded from the classic format Dictionary of Traditional Chinese Medicine Formula. And then, statistic analysis was made on the emerging frequency according to its effect. The results showed that different effects of Shanyao started to be widely applied from the Song dynasty. It was most widely applied in the Ming and Qing dynasty. Nowadays, the difference between using Shanyao has been gradually decreased. During the whole historical period, clinical functions of Shanyao are mainly reinforcing the spleen and the stomach, tonifying the kidney and strengthening yin. However, clinical functions of reinforcing the kidney and restraining yin, tonifying the lung and promoting fluid are used secondly. It was concluded that the research analyzed clinical application of Shanyao in each historical period, which can offer scientific basis for clinical practice and health maintenance with the using of Shanyao.

Objective To investigate the hemostatic effect of balloon compression on the puncture site in cancer patients with peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) inserted by ultrasound-guided modified Seldinger technique (MST). Methods Between October 2015 to January 2016, 50 cancer patients who accepted PICC inserted by ultrasound-guided MST were assigned into test group and control group respectively according to the admission time.Each group contained 25 cases. Balloon compression method was used to stop bleeding of the puncture point in the test group, while bandage compression hemostasis adopted in the control group. Results The incidence of bleeding on puncture site in the last 24 h of PICC placement was 28% (7/25) in the test group, while 68% (17/25) in the control group, and there were statistical differences between the groups (Z=-2.653,P<0.01). The incidence of bleeding on puncture site in 24-72 h of PICC placement was 16% (4/25) in the test group, while 36% (9/25) in the control group, and the difference had statistical significance (Z=-1.679,P>0.05). The incidence of limb swelling or numbness in the test group was 8% (2/25),which was lower than 32% (8/25) in the control group, and the difference had statistical significance (χ2=4.5,P < 0.05). Conclusions Balloon compression method can reduce the bleeding ratio of puncture site in cancer patients with PICC inserted by ultrasound-guided MST,and can relieve limb swelling or numbness .It is simple and safe in operation and can be easily accepted by the patients .

The high morbidity and compliments of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm infants are reported,but the diagnostic and prognostic appraisal of PDA is still debatable.The B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are found efficient in diagnosis of hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) in preterm infants,and also helpful in therapy decisions and prediction of treatment response.However,the type of assay and cut-off values have not yet reached a consent,so that further researches are needed.
