A study on the microbial transformation of glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) was conducted by a fungus, Cunninghamella blakesleeana CGMCC 3.970 systematically. After incubation with the cell cultures of C. blakesleeana CGMCC 3.970 at 25 degrees C for 7 days on a rotary shaker operating at 135 r x min(-1), GA was converted into one major product and five minor products. The products were extracted and purified by solvent extraction, macroporous adsorbent resin, silica gel column chromatography, and semi-preparative RP-HPLC chromatography. Their structures were identified as 3-oxo-15α-hydroxy-18β-glycyrrhetinic acid(1), 3-oxo-15β-hydroxy-18β-glycyrrhetinic acid (2), 7β,15α-dihydroxy-18β-glycyrrhetinic acid (3), 3-oxo-7β, 15α-dihydroxy-18β-glycyrrhetinic acid (4), 7β-hydroxy-18β-glycyrrhetinic acid(5) and 15α-hydroxy-18β-glycyrrhetinic acid(6) by the analyses of MS, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopic data respectively. Among them, 2 was a new compound. These results suggest that C. blakesleeana CGMCC 3.970 has the capability of selective ketonization and hydroxylation for GA.

Objective To investigate feasibility and safety of anterior pedicle screw fixation tunnel in the axis so as to provide theoretic evidence for further clinical application.Methods Thirty-two dry axis specimens were used for anterior pedicle screw placement,and the length of pedicle crews tunnel was measured by a digital caliper.The extraversion angle and the downslope angle were determined by CT cross-sectional scanning and reconstruction.Results All the anterior pedicle screws were positioned well,with no perforation of the pedicle.The anchoring point was at the vertex between the vertebral body and the superior articular process,with axis pedicle length of(28.4 ± 2.5)mm,the extraversion angle of (28.5 ±2.3)°and the downslope angle of(15.5 ±2.0)°.Conclusions Anterior pedicle screw fixation tunnel is feasible in the axis and can keep away from some important anatomy structures including transverse foramen,vertebral artery groove and vertebral canal to provide large safety space.

Objective To investigate the survival status and pathogens in adult patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia (SCAP) for the past ten years in our hospital. Methods A total of 159 adult patients with SCAP were enrolled for this study from January 2007 to December 2016 in our hospital. Patients were divided into early stage group (from January 2007 to December 2011, n=71) and late stage group (from January 2012 to December 2016, n=88). The clinical data, pathogen distribution and prognosis were compared between two groups. Results (1) The proportion of patients with blood urea nitrogen (BUN) > 7.1 mmol/L was significantly higher in late stage group than that of early stage group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in baseline data, vital signs, imaging findings and other laboratory examinations between the two groups (P>0.05). (2) For distribution of pathogens, 42 and 49 cases were detected pathogens in early stage group and late stage group. The detection rate of Legionella pneumophila was significantly higher in late stage group than that in early stage group (26.5% vs. 7.1%, P<0.05). (3) For complications, the incidence of septic shock was significantly higher in late stage group than that in the early stage group (22.7%vs. 9.9%, P<0.05). The fatality rate within 30 d after admission was significantly higher in late stage group than that of early stage group (43.2%vs. 25.4%, P<0.05). Results of multi-factor Cox proportional hazard regression analysis showed that septic shock and respiratory acidosis were independent risk factors of mortality in early stage group (P<0.05) while septic shock, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and multi-lobar infiltrates were independent risk factors of mortality in late stage group ( P<0.05). Conclusion In the past ten years, basic clinical characteristics of adult patients with SCAP in our hospital have changed little, but detection rate of legionella has showed increasing trend, and the short-term mortality rate has increased. Whether or not patients are combined with septic shock is a key factor affecting the prognosis.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational use of Chinese patent medicine. METHODS:The influencing fac-tors of rational use of Chinese patent medicine was investigated in respects of the selection of Chinese patent medicine,drug combi-nation,usage and dosage,clinical evaluation,pharmacoeconomic evaluation. RESULTS&CONCLUSIONS:Chinese patent medi-cine is a characteristic product of traditional Chinese medicine. It is a complex and important issue to use Chinese patent medicine rationally. It should be considered in many ways,not only pay attention to the principle of clinical use of Chinese patent medicine, but also need to carry out clinical evaluation of Chinese patent medicine;at the same time,the economics of Chinese patent medi-cine should be focused on.

Objective To observe the preventive effect of Taohong Siwu decoction on the formation of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients with cerebral hemorrhage.Methods Eighty patients with cerebral hemorrhage admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery in Huzhou First People's Hospital from November 2014 to January 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into an observation group and a control group according to the difference in treatment methods, each group 40 cases. Both groups were given routine treatment and nursing care, the patients of observation group were additionally given Taohong Siwu decoction (composition:Radix Angelicae Sinensis (stir-fried with wine) 10 g,Radix Rehmanniae Preparata 10 g,Radix Paeoniae Alba10 g,Ligusticum Chuanxiong Hort 6 g,Semen Persicae 6 g,Carthami Flos 4 g), once a day for consecutive 2 weeks.Results The D-dimer level in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (mg/L: 1.47±0.91 vs. 1.88±0.79,t = 1.991,P = 0.035); the incidence of DVT in the observation group was obviously lower than that in the control group [5.0% (2/40) vs. 20.0% (8/40), χ2 = 4.114,P = 0.043].Conclusion Taohong Siwu decoction can effectively reduce the incidence of DVT in patients with cerebral hemorrhage.

Objective To evaluate the mental status of malignant hematologic patients, explore the morbidity of depression in malignant hematologic patients, and investigate valid interventional treatment on them. Methods 134 malignant hematologic patients were evaluated by SDS and HAMD, and 49 patientswere selected who was diagnosed depressive disorder then randomly divided into 2 groups. One was experimental group and the other control group. The patients of experimental group were treated with antidepressant drug and mental intervention during common therapy, while the patients of control group only took common therapy. The change of immunological function after treatment was detected. Results The morbidity of depression in malignant hematologic patients was 37 %. The scores of SDS and HAMD were significandy decreased and the depressive symptoms were notablely improved in experimental group and there were significant differences after treatment and before treatment (P <0.01), but there was no significant difference in control group (P >0.1). The NPY plasma levels significantly increased after treatment in experimental group(P <0.01), but there was no significant difference in control group(P >0.05); the CD+4/CD+4 values of patients in the experimental group were significantly increased after treatments. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences in the experimental group patients between pre-treat and after-treat (P <0,05),but no obvious difference in the patients of control group (P>0.5). Conclusion Mental intervention and antidepressive treatment can improve all of the depression, immunological function and quality of life of malignant hematologic patients.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate clinical efficacy and adverse reactions(ADRs)of 4 kinds of the second-generation anti-psychotic drugs in the treatment of acute phase of schizophrenia. METHODS:159 patients with schizophrenia were randomly divid-ed into risperidone group(40 cases),olanzapine group(40 cases),aripiprazole group(39 cases)and ziprasidone group(40 cas-es). All groups were given routine dosage of relevant medicine by routine usage for 6 weeks. Mental status of patients were mea-sured by PANSS before treatment and after 2,4 and 6 weeks of treatment. At the same time,blood glucose,blood lipid,prolac-tion and other metabolic and biological indicators were all detected. RSESE,BARS and UKU were adopted to evaluate ADR. RE-SULTS:A total of 100 patients completed the study. Compared with aripiprazole group and ziprasidone group,risperidone and olan-zapine inhibited symptom more rapidly,with statistical significance (P<0.05). After treatment,body mass index and abdominal circumference of olanzapine group were significantly higher than those of other 3 groups,with statistical significance (P<0.05). Low density lipoprotein of olanzapine group was increased significantly,there was statistical significance compared to ziprasidone group and aripiprazole group(P<0.05). Prolactin level of risperidone group was significantly higher than those of other 3 groups, while that of aripiprazole group was significantly lower than those of other 3 groups,with statistical significance(P<0.05). ADRs of 4 drugs were mild or moderate,most of whom could be alleviated by symptomatic treatment. CONCLUSIONS:In the treatment of acute phase schizophrenia,4 drugs of the second-generation have similar curative effect in symptoms control,among which ris-peridone and olanzapine inhibit positive symptom more rapidly while more ADRs that related to lipid and glucose metabolism and prolactin also show. Aripiprazole and ziprasidone induce less ADRs relatively,and patients show better tolerability. Physicians should consider all kinds of factors in drugs selection,and make individualized treatment plan.
