The first three frequently used herbal medicines were Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma, Polygala Radix, and Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma. Accoring to association rule, the first three medicine pairs were Citrus Reticulatae Pericarpium→Pinelliae Rhizoma, Dioscoreae Rhizoma→Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata, and Codonopsis Radix→Citrus Reticulatae Pericarpium. The first three thriple herbal medicines were Dioscoreae Rhizoma+Lycii Fructus→Corni Fructus, Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma+Corni Fructus→Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata, and Carthami Flos + Hirudo→Bupleuri Radix. Conclusion The results based on association rule effectively summarized all the doctors’ treatment experience in senile dementia, and provided the beneficial reference for the clinical treatment of senile dementia.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of L-carnitine on serum total level of homocysteine (tHcy) in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. METHODS: 60 patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis were randomly divided into two groups (treatment group and control group): the patients in the treatment group were injected i.v. with 1.0 g of L-carnitine for 12 weeks,and those in the control group were injected i.v. with 5 mL normal saline for 12 weeks. Meanwhile,the healthy people were involved as normal control group(n=20). tHcy was detected by ELISA method;the fasting insulin was detected by radio-immunity method. Fasting blood glucose,total cholesterol,triglyeride,HDL and LDL were detected by routine method. The reciprocal of the multiplication product between fasting blood glucose and insulin concentration were computed as insulin sensitivity index(ISI). RESULTS: After treatment for 12 weeks,the treatment group showed increased ISI but significantly reduced tHcy(P

Objective:To evaluate influence of electroacupuncture combined point massage on aptients with cartid ar- tery arteriosclerosiss.Methods:A total of 106 patients with carotid atherosclerosis were randomly divided into rou- tine group (n=54,received health education based on routine therapy)and electroacupuncture+ massage group (n=52,received additional electroacupuncture and point massage based on routine group).Both groups were treated for two courses,20 times/course, 1 time/d.Carotid intima-media thickness (IMT)and thickness of carotid plaques were measured and compared between two groups before and after treatment.Results:There were no sig- nificant difference in thickness of carotid plaques and IMT between two groups before treatment,P>0.05 all. Compared with before treatment,after treatment,there were significant reductions in thickness of carotid plaques [left:(0.104±0.103)mm vs.(0.044±0.031)mm,right:(0.111±0.093)mm vs.(0.055±0.046)mm]in elec- troacupuncture + massage group,and they were significantly thinner than those of routine group [left:(0.190± 0.175)mm,right:(0.223±0.183)mm],P<0.01 all;significant reductions in carotid IMT [left:(0.096±0.021) mm vs.(0.086±0.019)mm,right:(0.091±0.019)mm vs.(0.087±0.018)]in electroacupuncture + massage group,and they were significantly thinner than those of routine group [left:(0.105±0.016)mm,right:(0.103± 0.020)mm],P<0.05 or <0.01.Conclusion:Electroacupuncture combined point massage can effectively reduce thickness of carotid plaques and carotid intima-media thickness.

Aims To construct an expression vector of human lncRNA H 1 9 ,and to determine the effect of H1 9 overexpression on MCF-7 cell proliferation. Methods Total RNA was extracted from MCF-7 cells,and the full-length of H1 9 lncRNA was amplified by RT-PCR and subcloned into pcDNA3.1 (-)ex-pression vector.The constructed H1 9 expression vector was transfected into HEK-293T and COS-7 cells and the H1 9 lncRNA expression was evaluated by real-time PCR.Following the transfection of H1 9 expression vec-tor into MCF-7 cells for 0,24h and 48h and H1 9 siR-NA interference fragment into MCF-7 cells for 24h, MCF-7 cell proliferation was determined by MTS as-say.Results A hH1 9-pcDNA3.1 (-)expression vector was successfully constructed. At Forty-eight hours after the transfection with H1 9 expression vector in to MCF-7 cells,cell proliferation was significantly increased in the transfected group compared to those without transfection and to those transfected with a neg-ative control vector,while twenty-four hours after the transfection with H1 9 siRNA interference fragment into MCF-7 cells,cell proliferation was significantly de-creased in the transfected group compared to those transfected with a negative control vector.Conclusion Ectopic overexpression of H1 9 lncRNA can promote breast cancer MCF-7 cell proliferation.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of hepatitis B virus(HBV) re-infection after orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT)and to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of hepatitis B immunoglobulin(HBIG)combined with nucleos(t)ide analogues. Methods The study included 160 patients with HBVrelated liver diseases who underwent OLT in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from October 2003 to Augest 2007, 117 of whom were treated with nucleos(t)ide analogues before OLT;and all patients were received HBIG i. m and nucleos(t)ide analogues treatment after OLT. Preoperative data of the patients were retrospectively reviewed, and HBV re-infection was assessed prospectively. Independent t test was used to compare normally distributed data and Fisher's exact test was used for the comparison of rates among groups. Results HBV re-infection Was observed in 19 patients after OLT with a rate of 11. 88%(19/160), which was not correlated with HBV DNA loads, HBeAg and the duration of antiviral therapy before OLT(r=0.108, 0.127 and 0.033, P>0.05). Of 19 patients with HBV re-infection, 17 were treated with lamivudine after OLT, and HBV YMDD mutants were detected in 8. The YMDD positive group had a higher HBV DNA level than YMDD negative group(7.0 ± 2.0 log copies/mL vs 3.2 ± 2.5 log copies/mL, t = 3.531, P=0.003). Among above 17 patients, 12 received adefovir add-on treatment, and3 received entecavir instead of lamivadine; all achieved satisfactory responses. Conclusions Low dose of HBIG combined with long-term use of nucleos(t)ide analogues can effectively prevent HBV re-infection after OLT. HBV YMDD mutation may be the primary reason for HBV re-infection in the patients treated with lamivudine after OLT.

Objective To evaluate the long-term prognosis of patients with HBV-related decompensated cirrhosis after treatment with nucleos (t) ide analogues. Methods Totally 94 patients with HBV-related decompensated cirrhosis were enrolled, 53 in nucleos(t) ide group, 41 in control group, and both received routine treatments. Patients in nucleos (t)ide analogue group also received lamivudine ( 100 mg/d), or adefovir ( 10 mg/d), or entecavir (0.5 rag/d). The follow-up was terminated for those who developed hepatocellular carcinoma, received liver transplantation, died or refused the treatment. Serum biochemical markers, Child-Pugh grades and clinical outcomes were compared between two groups at the end of following up. Results After nucleos (t) ide analogues therapy, ALT, AST, globulin ( Glb), and TBil decreased, while Alb and cholinesterase (CHE) increased in the nucleos(t)ide group, and Chiid-Pugh scores decreased in 43 (81.1%) patients. While in the control group, ALT, AST, Glb and TBil did not show significant changes, but the CHE was significantly lower than before ( t = 5. 225, P < 0. 01 ). More patients in nucleos (t)ide group showed improvements in Child-Pugh grades, and there was significant difference between the two groups (X2 = 52.16, P <0.01). The incidence of HCC is lower in nucleos(t) ide group (0%) than that in the control group ( 19.5% ) ( X2 = 23.07, P < 0.01 ). The incidence of death and liver transplantation between two groups did not show siguificant difference. Conclusions Nucleos(t) ide analogues therapy can significantly improve biochemical status of liver functions in patients with HBV-related decompensated cirrhosis. The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma may decline and the long-term prognosis can be improved.
