Ginseng and its effective components are famous for their influence to enhance human immunity, regulate endocrine and antioxidant action. However, the different effects of different components are not clear. In this study, Wistar rats were used to study the effects of main components of ginseng, including total ginsenoside, panaxadiol saponins, panaxtrol saponin and ginseng polysaccharide. The results showed that the effects of panaxadiol saponins and ginseng polysaccharide on improving animal immune organ weight, plasma interleukin 2 (IL-2), interleukin 6 (IL-6), plasma gamma-interferon (IFN-γ), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) were better than that of the other groups. Total ginsenoside and panaxtrol saponin can effectively increase the concentration of spleen NK cells (NKC) while panaxadiol saponins and ginseng polysaccharide can significantly increase the concentrations of rat plasma adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH), corticosterone (CORT) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). As for the effect of increasing organization nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA), total ginsenoside is better than that of other groups. In brief, different components in ginseng possess different effects on enhancing immunity, regulating endocrine and resisting oxidation. Panaxadiol saponins and ginseng polysaccharide are better in enhancing immune, and total ginsenoside shows advantages in resisting oxidation and stress.

To report a boy with reflex seizures induced by micturition.He suffered from seizures during micturition for four yesrs.The clinical symptoms consisted of head backwards,limbs dithering,sometimes accompanying tumble.During the episodes of the seizure,his consciousness did not lose.Few seizures showed only eyes up-staring for several seconds.The livelong process of micturition was often interrupted by seizures for several times.When he finished or stoped micturition,the seizures did not occur again.His seizures could not be induced by free of micturition or other stimulative factors.The interictal EEGs showed that background asymmetry manifested as the lower amplitude and irregular rhythm in the left hemisphere,sharp or sharp and waves in right hemisphere,especially mid and back temporal.There also had sharp,spike,and spike and waves in many regions of double spheres in interictal EEGs.The other assistant check-ups were normal.while this disease was infrenquncy,it would be worthy to regard.

Objective To detect genetic alterations in pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (PXA), and to investigate the mechanism of development of this neoplasm. Methods Three patients with PXA were studied. Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was performed to study chromosomal imbalances in PXA. Using immunohistochemical analysis, the expression of EGFR was detected in PXA. Results Using CGH analysis, genetic imbalance was detected on at least one chromosome for each case. One patient revealed multiple genetic alterations, including gains of 2p14-pter, 4p15-pter, 7p21-qter, 11q24-qter, 12 and 15q14-qter,as well as losses of 8p11.2-pter, 9p11-p23, 10p12-pter, and 13q14-qter. This patient experienced tumor recurrence and died one year later. Gain on Chromosome 7 and loss on Chromosome 8p were demonstrated in 2 of the 3 patients. Immunohistochemically, no EGFR positive reaction was found in all cases. Conclusion Detection of genetic alterations is very important in understanding the pathogenesis of PXA.

Objective To characterize the systolic torsion in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) by velocity vector imaging(VVI).Methods Eighty-seven subjects were studied using VVI:27 patients with DCM and 60 healthy control subjects.Left ventricular short-axis acoustic images were acquired at base and apex levels.The rotation angle and rotation velocity of endocardium and epicardium were measured.Results LVEF of DCM group was significantly lower than that of control group ( P＜0.01).The basal and apical rotation angle, rotation velocity were significantly lower in DCM group.The endocardial and epicardial rotation angle, rotation velocity were also significantly lower in DCM group than those in control group (P＜0.01).Conclusions VVI is a rapid and noninvasive tool to quantitatively assess cardiac torsional deformation in DCM patients,which providing another useful modality for evaluating cardiac function.

This paper reported a new method of Armillaria mellea isolation-Gastrodia elata tissue isolating. Compared with normal isolating method-rhizomorph isolating method, it showed that the success rate of new method (78% ) was higher than the rhizomorph isolating method (16% ) , besides this, the new method was easier, and growth characteristic of obtained strain was superior to that obtained from rhizomorph isolating method.

After comparing the varieties of parameters in batch culture under different dissolved oxygen tension by Bacillus pumilus, we found that the demand of cell on oxygen in different phase isn' t consistent. Based on the analys is of the metabolic pathway of oxygen and the mechanism of the effect of dissolved oxygen tension on fermentation of D-ribose, a two-stage oxygen-supply control mode was proposed and experimentally proved to be available. High ribose yield and high glucose consumption rate were achieved during whole process for 44h, and the ultimate ribose concentration and cell concentration were 5.0% and 18.8% higher than former respectively.

OBJECTIVETo study the antalgic and antiphlogistic functions and mechanism of ronggudingtong (RGDT) plaster (traditional Chinese medicine).

METHODSThe painful models were established with hot plate test or acetic acid writhing and the inflammatory models were established with daubing dimethylbenzene on auricle or injecting formaldehyde in toe or synovial envelope to study the antalgic and antiphlogistic functions of RGDT Plaster. The total protein and leukotriene B4(LTB4) in inflammatory exudate were detected to investigate the antalgic and antiphlogistic mechanism of RGDT plaster. The mice were randomly divided into different groups (n = 11), on the basis of drug using, the indexes of pain threshold, swelling degree were observed. Sixty-six mice were used to establish gasbag synovitis model and randomly divided into normal control group,model control group, positive control group (Voltaren gel 0.8 mg/d)and low/medium/high dosage RGDT plaster treating groups(30 mg/d, 60 mg/d, 120 mg/d).

RESULTS30 mg/d, 60 mg/d,120 mg/d RGDT plaster could upgrade the pain thresholds, remit auricular and foot swelling (P < 0.05, P < 0.01), and degrade total protein and LTB4 in inflammatory exudates (P < 0.05, P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONRGDT plaster has some antalgic and antiphlogistic functions, and one of the mechanisms is depressing synthesis of LTB4.

Objective To explore the relationship between age and refractive predictability of excimer laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK)for the correction of myopia.Design Retrospective case series.Participants 362 patients(703 eyes)who had performed LASIK.Methods According to the age,patients were divided into four groups(≤30y,31～34y,35～39y and≥40y).Their preoperative and postoperative refractive powers examined with automatic refactor as well as manifest optometry were analysed and followed up from 6 months to 2 years.According to pre-operative refractive power,patietns were divided into low and moderate myopia group(≤-6.00D), high myopia group(-6.25～-12.00D)and super-high myopia group(≥-12.25D).The eyes with refractive power at post-operative 2 years≥-1.00D were regressive eyes.Main Outcome Measures Refractive error before surgery,intended residual refractive power and 3,6, 12, 24 months post-operative refractive powers.Results There were no significant differences between intended residual refractive powers and refractive powers at post-operative 6 month in 3 groups(
