Objective To investigate the effect of Atorvastatin Combined Naoxintong Capsule treats to cerebral infarction and carotid atherosclerosis.Methods 134 patients with cerebral infarction and carotid atherosclerosis were diagnosed by MRI or CT scan.They were randomly divided into two groups.67 cases were given atorvastatin versus aspirin received routine treatment in the control group and 67 cases were used Naoxintong capsule in observation group on the basis of routine treatment in the observation group.The blood lipid,serum high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level,neural function defect score (NIHSS),carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT) were comperred before and after treatment in two groups for treated with 1 courses (6 months).Results The blood lipid had no significant difference between two groups before and after treatment (P ＜ 0.05).The IMT,NIHSS score of high sensitivity C-reactive protein levels had no significant difference in two groups before and after treatment (P ＜ 0.05).The scores of NIHSS,IMT,high sensitive C-reactive protein level respectively (10.08 ± 1.82) ％,(1.06 ± 0.13)mm,(3.89 ± 1.41) mg/L of observation group were more decreased significantly than the control group (respectively (13.92 ±2.01)％,(1.24 ±0.15)mm,(5.02 ± 1.52) mg/L after treatment.Conclusion Atorvastatin Combined Naoxintong Capsule in treatment of cerebral infarction and carotid artery gruel kind hardening shows good therapeutic effect,it is worth for clinical use.

Objective To systematically evaluate the association between IL-6 gene rs1800796 polymorphism and febrile seizures(FS)susceptibility.Methods The related literatures on IL-6 gene rs1800796 polymorphism and febrile seizures(FS)susceptibility were retrieved from PubMed,Web of Science Embase,Cochrane Library,CNKI,WanFang,VIP and CBM Databases by computer.OR and its 95％CI were taken as the pooled effects.The RevMan 5.2 software was adopted to conduct the statistical analysis.The publication bias analysis was performed by using the STATA12.0 software.Results Seven independent case-control studies were included according to the inclusion and exclusion standard,involving 516 accumulated cases and 528 controls.The results showed that IL-6 gene rs1800796 polymorphism had a significant association with FS susceptibility in Chinese population(GG+CG vs.CC:OR=2.22,P=0.05;G vs.C:OR=2.44,P<0.01;GG vs.CC:OR=3.69,P=0.03;GG vs.CG+CC:OR=3.43,P<0.01).The subgroup analysis was conducted according to possible important confounding factors,and the results showed that this gene polymorphism had a significant association with FS susceptibility in Chinese population(GG+CG vs.CC:OR=3.32,P<0.01;G vs.C:OR=3.23,P<0.01;GG vs.CC:OR=7.27,P<0.01;GG vs.CG+CC:OR=5.17,P<0.01:CG vs.CC:OR=2.56,P=0.02).But in other populations,except recessive model(GG vs.CG+CC:OR=2.40,P<0.01),all other genetic models did not display obvious correlation.The subgroup analysis was conducted by FS diagnostic standard,and the results showed that this gene polymorphism had a significant correlation with infantile FS onset in diagnosing FS by the Chinese standard(GG+CG vs.CC:OR=4.57,P<0.01;G vs.C:OR=4.36,P<0.01;GG vs.CC:OR=12.75,P<0.01;GG vs.CG+CC:OR=8.60,P<0.01:CG vs.CC:OR=3.40,P<0.01).Conclusion IL-6 gene rs1800796 polymorphism may be associated with infantile FS susceptibility and allele G may be a risk factor for FS onset.

Objective To explore the role of matrix metalloproteinase 9(MMP-9)and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1(TIMP-1)in patients with acute exacerbation of severe chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (AECOPD)treated with glucocorticoids.Methods The serum levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 were measured by ELISA in 41 patients with AECOPD before and after treatment with glucocorticoids and in 40 patients with regular methods(control group).Results ①After treatment with glucocorticoids,the serum levels of MMP-9(189.25±52.38)μg/L、TIMP-1(198.38±43.45)μg/L,ratio of MMP-9/TIMP-1(0.92±0.37)were decreased significantly than before((246.10±68.64)μg/L,(217.63±62.34)μg/L,(1.09±0.23))(P<0.01,P<0.05,P<0.05);but there were no differences(P>0.05)in regular methods(control group);② After treatment with glucoeorticoids, FEV_1、FEV_1%((0.83±0.35)L,(46±17)%)were impmved than before((0.72±0.48)L,(34±15)%)(P<0.05).Conclusions After treatment with glucocorticoids,the serum levels of MMP-9、TIMP-1、ratio of MMP-9/TIMP-1 from patients with COPD were decreased significandy,and FEV_1、FEV_1%were improved significant;Glucocorticoids can alleviate severs AECOPD to some degrees,which might be related to improving the imbalance of MMP-9/TIMP-1.

To compare the chemical change of Paeoniae Radix Alba (PRA) after vinegar-baking processing, as well as the effect of vinegar types exerted on the processing, 1H NMR-based metabolomic approach combined with multivariate statistical analysis was used to investigate the different metabolites between the raw and two vinegar-baked PRA. More than thirty metabolites were identified in the 1H NMR spectrum of PRA, and the multivariate statistical analysis showed that raw and two vinegar-baked PRA could be separated obviously. After vinegar-baking, the contents of isoleucine, lactate, alanine, arginine, albiflorin, and 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (5-HMF) elevated, while those of sucrose, paeoniflorin and its analogues (calculated by benzoate) decreased. The chemical compositions of two vinegar-baked PRA were also different. Shanxi vinegar- baked PRA showed higher levels of leucine, isoleucine, valine, and albiflorin, while rice vinegar-baked PRA contained more sucrose and paeoniflorin's analogues (calculated by benzoate). And the chemical changes in Shanxi vinegar-baked PRA were greater than those of rice vinegar-baked PRA. The results revealed the chemical differences between raw and vinegar-baked PRA, as well as the influence of vinegar type on processing, in a holistic manner, the results obtained suggested that the correlations between the chemical change and the drug action after processing, as well as the vinegar type used in processing, should be further studied.

Methods:Clinical pharmacists participated in the therapy for an ovarian cancer patient with cirrhosis,and provided a rational and individualized therapeutic regimen through the drug experience of clinical pharmacists as well as the relevant medical guides and literatures. Results:The therapeutic efficacy was increased by the participation of clinical pharmacists in the therapy,the potential risk of the chemotherapy was avoided and the security of medication was assured. Conclusion:The participation of clinical pharmacists in therapeutic practice can improve the normalization of pharmacotherapy for ovarian cancer patients with cirrhosis,which also can provide ideas and methods for treating the similar patients.
