World Science and Technology-Modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2014;(7):1629-1632
This study was aimed to observe the clinical curative effect of Thesium Chinese tablets in the treatment of chronic bronchitis (syndrome of phlegm heat in the lung). A total of 100 cases of chronic bronchitis (syndrome of phlegm heat in the lung) were randomly divided into two groups. The control group was treated with anti-inflamma-tion, relieving cough and asthma, phlegm removing and oxygen inhalation, maintenance of water electrolyte balance and other symptomatic treatment. In the treatment group, on the basis of treatments in the control group, Thesium Chinese tablets were given at the dosage of 1.6 geach time, 3 times a day. Both groups were treated for 1 course of 10 days. The results showed that clinical symptoms and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes of quantizing integral were improved after treatment in both groups. And the therapeutic effect of treatment group was significantly better than the control group (P< 0.01). Thesium Chinese tablets can effectively shorten the time of clinical symptom improvement time, obviously improve the level of Ig among elderly patients with acute exacerbation of chronic bron-chitis, and enhance the immune function. It was concluded that the Thesium Chinese tablets can effectively improve the quality of life among patients with chronic bronchitis (syndrome of phlegm heat in the lung).

Objective: To analyse correlation of bispectral index,spectral edge frequency of electroencephalogram with midazolam-induced sedation. Method: 30ASA grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ adult patients, undergoing elective surgery under regional anesthesia were randomly devided into three groups according to intravenous bolus doses of midazolam,i, e. group Ⅰ:0.05mg?kg~(-1),group Ⅱ:0.1mg?kg~(-1),group Ⅲ:0.2mg?kg~(-1). After an intravenous bolus dose of mida zolam was administered,both bispectral index (BIS), 95% spectral edge freguency (SEF) of electroencephalogram were monitored and their correlation with midazolam induced sedation was analysed. Result: Both BIS and 95% SEF-correlated with midazolam-induced sedation significantly (r= 0.86,0.73, P

Objective To investigate the effect of mechanical ventilation in acute organophosphorous pesticide poisoning(AOPP) with respiratry failure. Methods Forty from forty-two AOPP patients with respiratry failure were treated with mechanical ventilation(MV) ,gastrolavage and other methods. Five minutes before mechanical ventilation and two hours after mechanical ventilation, patients' heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP), arterial partial blood pH, oxygenation index, the pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) were compared. Results Patients' HR was increased ( P<0. 05 ), SBP was increased ( P<0. 01 ), arterial partial blood pH was increased( P<0. 01 ), oxygenation index was increased(P<0. 01 ) ,PaCO2 was decreased(P<0.01 ). Thirty nine cases were cured,three cases dided. Conclusion Mechanical ventilation can effectively treat the AOPP patients with respiratry failure.

In the present study, the specifically knockdown models of P-gp or MRP2 were constructed by using a series of chemically synthesized small interfering RNA (siRNA) in vitro. The expression of P-gp and MRP2 was measured by real-time PCR and Western blot, and the function was evaluated by applying P-gp and MRP2 substrate, rhodamine and methotrexate. The results showed that MRP2 siRNA-3 or P-gp siRNA-2 significantly decreased the mRNA expression of MRP2 or P-gp, the inhibition ratio was 68% or 84%; MRP2 siRNA-3 or P-gp siRNA-2 at a dose of 80 nmol x L(-1) significantly reduced the protein expression of MRP2 or P-gp at 48 h after treatment, the inhibition ratio was 62% or 70%. Meanwhile, other transporters were not influenced by siRNA. When pretreatment with MRP2 siRNA-3 or P-gp siRNA-2, the efflux of methotrexate or rhodamine decreased significantly and the intra-cellular concentration increased. The results suggested that chemically synthesized siRNA could significantly inhibit the expression and function of MRP2 and P-gp, and the model of RNAi in vitro could be used to evaluate the role of efflux transporters in transportation of drugs.

Objective:To detect the expression and clinical significance of β-tubulin Ⅲ in cancer tissue of the patients with colon adenocarcinoma,and to explore its clinical significance.Methods:A total of 111 colon adenocarcinoma tissue samples were obtained.According to the location of β-tubulin Ⅲ positive cells, all patients were divided into front group (n=72) and non-front group (n=39).The positive expression rate of β-tubulin Ⅲ in the patients with colon adenocarcinoma was detected with immunohistochemistry.The correlations among the expression of β-tubulin Ⅲ and gender,age,tumor differentiation, clinical stage, lymph node metastasis, recurrence and death were analyzed.Results: The expression levels of β-tubulin Ⅲ had no significant differences between the patients with different gerder,age,lymph node metastasis,clinical stages,death and recurrence.The positive expression rates of β-tubulin in cancer tissue of the patients had significant difference between front and non-front groups (χ2=8.76, P=0.01).Lowly-to-moderately differentiated tissue was more common in front group, and highly-differentiated tissue was more common in non-front group(χ2=6.88, P=0.03).There were significant differences in the expression levels of β-tubulin Ⅲ between cancer tissues with different differentiation degrees (χ2=5.74, P=0.04).In non-front group, lymph node metastasis was closely correlated with the expression of β-tubulin Ⅲ (χ2=6.02,P=0.05).The results of immunohistochemical staining showed that the β-tubulin Ⅲ positive-expressing cells were colored brown-yellow.The number of cells with positive β-tubulin Ⅲ expression was significantly increased in highly differentiated tissue compared with low-differentiated tissue.Conclusion:The expression of β-tubulin Ⅲ is closely related to tumor differentiation in colon adenocarcinoma tissue.The highly differentiated colon adenocarcinoma tissue is more common in non-front group in which the expression of β-tubulin Ⅲ is related to lymph node metastasis.

Objective:
This study is the first to adopt a cultural and contextual coping model to examine the impact of forbearance coping on compliance and psychological health and unravel the psychosocial mediator and moderator among community-dwelling residents in the post-pandemic era in China.
Methods:
A multistage cluster convenience sampling strategy was conducted to recruit 402 community-dwelling residents of ten cities in Guangdong province who completed an online survey measuring forbearance coping, anti-pandemic compliance behaviours, family resilience, community resilience and psychological distress.
Results:
The study results showed an unexpected negative influence of forbearance coping on psychological distress. Nevertheless, forbearance coping facilitated personal compliance with coronavirus disease-2019 mitigation measures and improved psychological health. More importantly, meaning-making of adversity within families partially mediated the negative effect of forbearance on mental health only when respondents perceived higher levels of community resilience.
Conclusion
This study is the first to apply the cultural and contextual model of coping to Chinese individuals during a significant public health crisis. It expands the model by uncovering mechanisms like behavioural compliance and family meaning-making, and highlights the moderating role of community resilience. The findings emphasize the importance of building resilient communities and supporting mental health, providing evidence for future policy interventions and pandemic/disaster prevention measures in China.
