0.05).The two-week administration of Jianpi Recipe decreased the bloodglucose of diabetic mice.Normal saline had no obvious influence on it.Time-choosing recipe administration could adjust the circadian rhythm of bloodglucose concentration.Administration at 6am was more effective in adjusting bloodglucose rhythm.Conclusion Spleen-reinforcing therapy can decrease the bloodglucose of diabetic mice,and the effect tend to be more obvious with the administration prolonging.Administration at different time exerts different effect on circadian rhythm of bloodglucose concentrations.There exists different effect in different time administration in spleen-reinforcing therapy.
2.Effect of Electroacupuncture Combined with Stretta Radiofrequency Treatment on MTL and GAS in Patients with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Journal of Acupuncture and Tuina Science 2014;(4):216-220
Objective: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) combined with Stretta radiofrequency treatment on contents of motilin (MTL) and gastrin (GAS) in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) patients.
Methods: A total of 90 eligible GERD cases were randomly allocated into three groups, 30 in each group. Patients in the EA group were treated with EA, patients in the radiofrequency group were treated with Stretta radiofrequency, and patients in the observation group were treated with EA combined with Stretta radiofrequency. Assessment was made after a course of treatment.
Results: The recovery, improvement and failure cases and total effective rate in the EAgroup were 2, 18, 10 and 67.7% respectively, versus 13, 13, 4 and 86.7% in the radiofrequency group and 20, 9, 1 and 96.7% in the observation group. The therapeutic efficacy in the observation group was significantly better than that in the other two groups (P<0.01). After treatment, symptom scores of regurgitation, heartburn and substernal burning pain in all three groups were significantly reduced (P<0.05); the reduction in the observation group was more significant than that inthe other two groups (P<0.05),and the reduction in the radiofrequency group was more significant than that in the EA group (P<0.05). After treatment, the contents of MTL and GAS in all three groups were increased; and the increase in the observation group was more significant than that in the other two groups (P<0.05).
Conclusion: EA combined with Stretta radiofrequency treatment can significantly improve the clinical effect of GERD patients, improve regurgitation, heartburn and substernal burning pain and increase the contents of MTL and GAS.

This paper presented the practice of Zhejiang in introducing the drug zero-profit reform.A comparative analysis was made to the pilot county hospitals regarding their business performance,patients' burden,financial subsidy and medical insurance expenditure.The reform has scored a success as expected with the following outcomes:sharp rise in medical services volume,medical income and financial aid on one hand; drop of the proportion of drug income and changes in the medical income makeup; controlled increase of average cost of outpatient and inpatient care,and significant drop of pharmaceutical costs; increased expenditure yet stable operation of medical insurance funds;proportional increase of medical insurance compensation,with drops of the proportion of both out-ofpocket expenses and visits to doctors out of their county.This reform,however,has such shortcomings as follows:insufficient adjustment toward true costs of medical services,lack of a clear and sustainable financial compensation mechanism,and that of supporting measures.Based on these,the authors call for accelerated payment system reform,dynamic and scientific adjustment of medical service prices,exploration of clear financial compensation methods,optimization of internal management of hospitals,and acceleration of the formation of a medical staff income distribution mechanism.

Research on novel pullulanase has major significance on the domestic industrialization of pullulanase and the breakdown of foreign monopoly. A thermophilic bacteria LM 18-11 producing thermostable pullulanase was isolated from Lunma hot springs of Yunnan province. It was identified as Anoxybacillus sp. by 16S rDNA phylogenetic analysis. Full-length pullulanase gene was cloned from Anoxybacillus sp. LM18-11. The optimum temperature of the pullulanase was between 55 and 60 degrees C with a half-life as long as 48 h at 60 degrees C; and its optimum pH was between 5.6 and 6.4. V(max) and K(m) of the pullulanase was measured as 750 U/mg and 1.47 mg/mL, which is the highest specific activity reported so far. The pullulanase crystals structure showed a typical alpha-amylase family structure. The N-terminal has a special substrate binding domain. Activity and substrate binding were decreased when the domain was deleted, the V(max) and K(m) were 324 U/mg and 1.95 mg/mL, respectively. The pullulanase was highly heterologous expressed in Bacillus subtilis by P43 promoter. The extracellular enzyme activity was 42 U/mL, which increased more than 40 times compared to the initial strain. This pullulanase has good application prospects.

Objective:To explore the improvement effect of tirofiban on the myocardial reperfusion of non-ST segmant elevated myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) patients underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) treatment.Methods:78 NSTEMI patients underwent PCI in our hospital from April 2012 to April 2015 were selected and divided into the observation group (n=38) and the control group (n=40) according to different drugs.Patients in the control group were given asprin,clopidogrel and heparin,while patients in the observation group were additionally given tirofiban.Then the myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) was taken to evluate the myocardial reperfusion.Results:No statistical difference was found in the levels of A,β,A β,CK-MB and cTnⅠ before PCI between 2 groups.The levels of β,A β of observation group were obviously higher,CK-MB and cTnⅠ were obviously lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).The MACE rate of observation group was 2.63%,which was 5.00% in the control group,no significant difference was between two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion:Tirofiban could obviously improve the myocardial reperfusion of NSTEMI patients underwent PCI with high safety.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinicopathological features,immunohistochemical phenotype of pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma.MethodsEight cases of pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma admitted to our hospital from January 2001to January 2011were retrospectively analyzed. The clinicopathological characteristics,and immunohistochemical staining for phenotype were analyzed,then the follow-up data were summarized.ResultsAll 8 patients with pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma was male,with a median age of 47 years old.Tumors were located in the pancreatic head in 4 patients,pancreatic body and tail in 4 patients.The average tumor size was 4.5 cm × 4.0 cm × 3.2 cm,the section appeared as gray or gray-red and presented as solid or cystic lesions.Larger tumors were often accompanied by hemorrhage and necrosis.Microscopically,the tumor cells arranged in acinic,cord,trabecular or solid nests.The cytoplasm was abundant and eosinophilic.The nuclear was round,oval,slightly atypia.lmmunohistochemical staining showed diffusely positive for CAM5.2,α-AT,α-ACT and focally positive for CA19-9,CEA,E-cad,β-cat and MUC-1 and only occasionally positive for AFP,NSE,Syn and CgA.Follow-up data showed there was one case of postoperative death due to postoperative pancreatic leakage with abdominal infection.Liver metastasis occurred in 4 cases,among whom,2 cases died.ConclusionsPancreatic acinar cell carcinoma is a rare epithelial malignant tumor of pancreas,with distinct phenotype characteristics.
