Plasma concentrations of immunoreactivc beta-endorphin in patients with NIDDM were measured by radioimmuno-assay. It was found that the plasma beta-endorphin levels decreased in 68 cases of NIDDM especially in those with long duration of illness and chronic complication. These results suggested that beta-endorphin may be related to diabetes and its chronic complication.

Immunoreactive beta-endorphin was measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA) in the pituitary, hypothalamus, pancreas and plasma of female diabetic rats induced by streptozotocin. In addition, pain threshold was determined. The results showed that the concentrations of beta-endorphin in pituitary, hypothalamus, pancreas and plasma began to decrease on the first month after being made diabetic. Then, the levels of beta-endorphin continued to decrease significantly as the course progressed, especially in pancreas and plasma. Diabetic rats consistently showed a decreased pain threshold after 4 weeks. These results suggested that the decrease of beta-endorphin may be related to the course of diabetes and pain threshold.

Objective To evaluate the values of the combined eGFR and qualitative determination of urine albumine on in both during and 3 years after hospitalization prognosis of after PCI.Methods One thousand and five PCI patients were divided into 4 groups by level of eGFR and qualitative determination of urine albumine.A group:eGFR ＜ 60 ml/min,urine albumine negative ( n =34 ) ; B group:eGFR ＜ 60 ml/min,urine albumine positive ( n =34) ; C group:eGFR ≥60 ml/min,urine albumine negative ( n =797 ) ; D group:eGFR ≥60 ml/min,urine albumine positive (n =140).The levels of serum creatinine and urine albumine of PCI patient were measured,and then compare body mass index,smoking,hypertension,hyperlipaemia,diabetes mellitus,previous MI,perioporative PCI and etc.All patients were followed up from 30 d to 3 years.The prognostic facters of PCI patients were analyzed by COX proportional hazards models.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to compare survival curves between the four groups stratified by level of eGFR.The log rank statistic was used to test for differences between groups.Results By multivariate COX regression adjustment for body mass index,smoking,hypertension,hyperlipaemia,diabetes mellitus,previous MI,perioperative PCI,the relative risk (RR) of albuminuria for cardiac events was 2.006 ( 95％ CI:1.020 - 3.947,P ＜ 0.05 ),perioperative PCI 3.375 ( 95％ CI:2.106 - 5.410,P ＜0.05 ).The cardiac events rate of B group with PCI after 1,2 and 3 year was 20.59％,2.94％,2.94％respectively,have statistical significant(x2 =8.774,P ＜ 0.05 ).The cardiac events rate of the first year in A,B,C,D groups was 5.89％,20.59％,4.01％,2.86％ respectively.The different cardiac events rate among four groups had statistical significant(x2 =22.050,P ＜0.01 ).B group cardiac events rate of the first year was significant higher than C,D group,which had statistical significant (x2 =20.020,14.520,P ＜0.01 ).The survival rate of 3 year follow-up after PCI was 91.2％,73.5％,91.6％,93.6％ respectively in four group,the different survival rate among four groups have statistical significant(x2 =16.750,P ＜0.01 ).Conclusion For the identification and treatment of high incidence of cardiac events in patients undergoing PCI,eGFR and qualitative determination of urine albumine are simple and effect tools.

AIM: To establish the determination of ginsenoside R e and R g1 in Compound Jiangtang Oral Liquid(Radix Ginseng, Fructus Schisandrae Chinensis, Radix Rehmannia, Radix Asparagi, etc.) by HPLC. METHODS: C 18 ODS was used as a stationary phase, acetonitrile-0.05% phosphoric acid (96∶400) as a mobile phase and detection wavelength at 203nm. RESULTS: The linear range of ginsenoside R e concentration was from 0.66 to 3.29?g?mL -1 and correlation coefficient was 0.9991, the linear range of ginsenoside R g1 concentration was from 1.05 to 5.27?g?mL -1 and correlation coefficient was 0.9998. The average recovery of sample was 98.2% and RSD 2.2% ( n =5), respectively. CONCLUSION: The method is simple and convenient, accurate with a good reproducibility and can be used for determination of ginsenoside R e and R g1 in Compound Jiangtang Oral Liquid.

BACKGROUND:Angelica polysaccharide has the function of enriching blood and promoting blood circulation, but how to improve the hematopoietic microenvironment and promote hematopoiesis has become one of the hot topics. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of angelica polysaccharide on Sca-1+, CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 level in bone marrow stromal cells in mice. METHODS:Mouse models of hemorrhagic anemia were made and then randomly divided them into control group, low-concentration angelica polysaccharide group and high-concentration angelica polysaccharide group. Angelica polysaccharide groups were intraperitoneally injected with the corresponding concentration of angelica polysaccharide (4, 6 mg/kg) for continuous 6 days, while the control group was injected with equal amount of normal saline. General conditions of the model mice were observed. Peripheral blood red cells were counted by automatic blood cell analyzer. Bone marrow hematopoietic stem cels were counted by magnetic bead sorting technique and flow cytometry. Proliferation of bone marrow stromal cells was detected by MTT method. Expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 in bone marrow stromal cells was detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Angelica polysaccharide had no obvious effect on the body mass of hemorrhagic anemia mice (P > 0.05). The number of peripheral blood cells, the percentage of bone marrow CD34+ and Sca-1+ cells, the number of bone marrow stromal cells and the level of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 were ranked as follows: high-concentration group > low-concentration group > control group (P < 0.05). To conclude, angelica polysaccharide could promote the proliferation of bone marrow stromal cells and increase the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1, thereby promoting the proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells and regulating their functional activities.

Objective To study the characteristics of the variations of formaldehyde concentration in indoor air of newly decorated living rooms. Methods The formaldehyde concentrations in indoor air of newly decorated rooms were determined with model 4160_2 formaldehyde analyzer during the different periods after decoration. Results At the 10th minute after closing all the windows and doors in the newly decorated rooms, the formaldehyde concentrations of indoor air exceeded the standard nearly as high as 2 times, reached 51% of the peak concentration at the 30th minute, and reached the peak concentration (0.652 mg/m 3) at the 420th minute, then decreased gradually with the prolongation of periods after decoration and accorded with the sanitary standard in the 4th month after decoration. The whole study was carried out at the indoor air temperature of 27.8～29.9 ℃. Conclusion The indoor air pollution by formaldehyde was serious in newly decorated living rooms. The ventilation should be enhanced during the first 4_month period after decoration, so that the formaldehyde concentration could be decreased gradually.

Through analyzing the data of ectopic thyroid glands, to know this kind of congenital lesion deeply. In all the cases, parathyroid gland types were more than aberrant thyroid types; the majority cases were single ectopic thyroid; most of ectopic thyroid were present in the neck and mouth; local mass was the most common symptom; adenoma was often associated with ectopic thyroid and there was a high proportion of combined malignant; most cases could not be correctly diagnosed.
