Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of lamb′s tripe extract and vitamin B 12 capsule (LTEVB 12C) on chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) at different locations (antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, corpus lesser curvature, and corpus greater curvature). Methods:From August 2011 to January 2013, 715 patients with CAG in a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial were enrolled from 16 tertiary first-class hospitals across the country, including the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University, Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University, the First Hospital of Jilin University, West China Hospital of Sichuan University, etc., there were 476 cases in the LTEVB 12C group and 239 cases in the placebo group. The patients of the LTEVB 12C group received LTEVB 12C, and the patients of placebo group received LTEVB 12C mimetic, all the medications were taken 3 capsules each time and 3 times a day after meals, and the treatment course of 2 groups were both 6 months. The efficacy evaluation criteria included the effective rate (a decrease of ≥1 in histopathological score compared with baseline after 6 months of treatment) and the reversal rate (a decrease of ≥ 2 in histopathological score compared with baseline after 6 months of treatment in the patients with moderate to severe CAG). The impact of lesion sites on the therapeutic effects of LTEVB 12C was analyzed by logistic regression analysis. The two-way unordered Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel chi-square test considering the center effect and Pearson chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:The effective rates of chronic inflammation at the antrum greater curvature and corpus greater curvature (23.3%, 110/473 vs. 13.0%, 31/239; 20.3%, 96/472 vs. 12.6%, 30/239), the effective rates of atrophy at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, corpus lesser curvature, and the corpus greater curvature (27.0%, 118/437 vs. 15.7%, 34/216; 29.2%, 126/432 vs. 18.5%, 38/205; 27.8%, 121/435 vs. 16.7%, 36/216; 32.5%, 127/391 vs. 19.8%, 37/187; 33.0%, 119/361 vs. 21.8%, 39/179), and the effective rates of intestinal metaplasia at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, and the corpus lesser curvature (45.0%, 112/249 vs. 29.8%, 31/104; 53.8%, 86/160 vs. 33.9%, 21/62; 45.8%, 103/225 vs. 24.0%, 25/104; 51.9%, 83/160 vs. 28.3%, 17/60) of the LTEVB 12C group were all higher than those of the placebo group, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=10.76, 6.39, 9.69, 7.91, 11.05, 9.62, 8.57, 5.20, 7.11, 12.45, and 6.73; all P<0.05). The reversal rates of chronic inflammation at the corpus lesser curvature and corpus greater curvature (5.2%, 12/231 vs. 0, 0/123; 4.7%, 8/170 vs. 0, 0/88), the reversal rates of atrophy at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, corpus lesser curvature, and the corpus greater curvature (6.8%, 22/323 vs. 1.3%, 2/151; 9.2%, 29/315 vs. 1.4%, 2/144; 14.2%, 38/267 vs. 2.5%, 3/121; 20.8%, 35/168 vs. 5.8%, 4/69), and the reversal rates of intestinal metaplasia at the antrum lesser curvature, antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, and the corpus lesser curvature (29.8%, 39/131 vs. 9.1%, 4/44; 41.0%, 32/78 vs. 12.5%, 3/24; 33.3%, 44/132 vs. 4.8%, 3/63; 50.0%, 37/74 vs. 8.7%, 2/23) of the LTEVB 12C group were all higher than those of the placebo group, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=6.58, 5.12, 5.60, 8.61, 11.43, 6.59, 7.30, 4.95, 15.92, 7.62; all P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the effective rates and reversal rates of active inflammation at different locations between the LTEVB 12C group and the placebo group (all P>0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis (taking the antrum lesser curvature as the reference) further confirmed that the reversal rates of chronic inflammation ( OR=0.22, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.07 to 0.67; OR=0.24, 95% CI: 0.07 to 0.80), atrophy ( OR=0.28, 95% CI: 0.16 to 0.49; OR=0.28, 95% CI: 0.16 to 0.49), and intestinal metaplasia ( OR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.24 to 0.77; OR=0.20, 95% CI: 0.08 to 0.52) at the corpus lesser curvature and corpus greater curvature were all higher than those at the antrum lesser curvature, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There were no statistically siginificant differences in the reversal rates of the aforementioned pathological features between the antrum greater curvature, gastric angle, and the antrum lesser curvature (all P>0.05). Conclusion:LTEVB 12C can achieve good efficacy in the treatment of CAG, and the chronic inflammation, atrophy, and intestinal metaplasia at multiple locations are improved, especially at the corpus lesser curvature and the corpus greater curvature.

BACKGROUND:For elderly patients with traumatic hip fractures,the related factors of prognosis are very complex,and the integrity of the lateral wall is one of the influencing factors.It is of important clinical value to understand the effect of lateral wall injury on the prognosis of femoral intertrochanteric fracture. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the relationship between the integrity of the lateral wall and hip functional recovery and other outcomes in patients with femoral intertrochanteric fractures. METHODS:Totally 82 patients with femoral intertrochanteric fractures were screened and all patients received proximal femoral nail antirotation fixation.According to the thickness of the lateral wall,the patients were divided into the lateral wall intact group(n=31)and lateral wall risk group(n=51).The perioperative indexes,weight-bearing time,fracture healing time,hip joint function and range of motion,postoperative pain and complications were compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The time of hospitalization and the number of fluoroscopies during operation in the lateral wall intact group were significantly lower than those in the lateral wall risk group(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference in other perioperative indexes.(2)Both groups were able to get down to the ground early after surgery and finally complete weight-bearing,but in the lateral wall risk group,the time of fracture healing was longer;the time of complete weight-bearing was significantly delayed;the Harris score of the last follow-up was lower;the range of motion of hip extension and flexion and neck trunk angle on the affected side were smaller(P<0.05).(3)There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups,but the overall incidence of complications in the lateral wall intact group was significantly lower(P<0.05).(4)In summary,after internal fixation of proximal femoral nail antirotation,patients with the intact lateral wall had a relatively better prognosis than those with risk lateral wall.

OBJECTIVE To explore the antitumor effect and mechanism of total alkaloids of Gelsemium elegans (TA) and sempervirine (SPV) in vitro. METHODS The effects of low, medium and high concentrations of TA (50, 100, 200 μg/mL) and SPV (10, 30, 50 μmol/L) on the morphology of human hepatoma cells (HepG2, Bel-7402), human lung cancer cells (A549) and human colon cancer cells (HCT-8) were observed, and the toxicity of TA and SPV to four tumor cells was monitored. The effects of TA and SPV on the contents of caspase-3 and caspase-9 in the supernatant of HCT-8 cells, the protein expressions of phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-Akt) (Thr308, Ser473), B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-related X protein (Bax), survivin, C/EBP-homologous protein (CHOP), immunoglobulin binding protein (Bip) and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3Ⅱ (LC3Ⅱ) in HCT-8 cells were detected. RESULTS After the intervention of TA and SPV, the volume reduction and nuclear shrinkage were founded in four tumor cells; the cell activity decreased to varying degrees, among which TA and SPV had the best inhibitory effect on HCT-8 cells. After the intervention of TA and SPV, the contents of caspase-3 and caspase-9 in the supernatant of HCT-8 cells, the protein expressions of Bax, CHOP, Bip and LC3Ⅱ all increased to different degrees, while the protein expressions of p-Akt (Thr308, Ser473), Bcl-2 and survivin in HCT-8 cells all decreased to different degrees. CONCLUSIONS TA and SPV have inhibitory effects on the above four tumor cells, and the inhibitory effect on HCT-8 cells is the best. The mechanism of their action on HCT-8 cells may be related to promoting apoptosis, activating endoplasmic reticulum stress and autophagy.

Objective:To explore the relationship between high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fingerprint and toxicity of Gelsemium elegans fermented by Ganoderma lucidum ( Ganoderma lucidum- Gelsemium elegans) for different time. Methods:Gelsemium elegans was processed by biphasic solid-state fermentation with Ganoderma lucidum. A total of 10 samples of Ganoderma lucidum- Gelsemium elegans were collected after fermentation for 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27 days (sampling twice on day 27, number: S1-S10) and the fingerprints were determined by self-established HPLC. One hundred specific pathogen-free ICR mice were randomly divided into 10 groups (each group comprised 10 mice, half were male and half were female). The median lethal dose of Ganoderma lucidum- Gelsemium elegans collected after fermentation for 11 days in mice was used as the final concentration in toxicity test. S1-S10 Ganoderma lucidum- Gelsemium elegans solutions were prepared and given to 10 groups of mice respectively by gavage administration and the death of mice was observed. According to the calculation formula of grey correlation analysis, the correlation coefficients between the common peaks of S1-S10 Ganoderma lucidum- Gelsemium elegans in chromatographic fingerprint and their toxicity test results (death rate in mice) was calculated and the main components contributing to the toxicity of Ganoderma lucidum- Gelsemium elegans were analyzed. Results:A total of 17 common peaks were identified in the chromatographic fingerprint spectrum of S1-S10 Ganoderma lucidum- Gelsemium elegans. The mortalities in mice caused by S1-S10 of Ganoderma lucidum- Gelsemium elegans were 1.00, 1.00, 0.80, 0.70, 0.60, 0.60, 0.50, 0.40, 0, and 0, respectively. The grey correlation analysis showed that the correlation coefficients of common peak 7, 3, 6, 9, 1, 8, 17, and 12 to toxicity were 0.868, 0.838, 0.830, 0.828, 0.824, 0.820, 0.818, and 0.802, respectively. The chemical components represented by these 8 chromatographic peaks had more contribution to the toxicity of Ganoderma lucidum- Gelsemium elegans. Conclusions:With the extension of fermentation time, the toxicity of Ganoderma lucidum- Gelsemium elegans decreased gradually, and toxicity was the lowest at 27 days of fermentation. The toxicity of Gelsemium elegans after fermentation was the result of a join action from multiple components. The identification of the main toxicity components can provide a reference for the quality control of Ganoderma lucidum- Gelsemium elegans and the fermentation process optimization.

Objective:To observe the effect of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) and high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy (HFNC) on the prognosis of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) accompanied with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted in Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology when authors worked as medical team members for treating COVID-19. COVID-19 patients with pulse oxygen saturation/fraction of inspiration oxygen (SpO 2/FiO 2, S/F) ratio < 235, managed by medical teams [using S/F ratio instead of oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2) to diagnose ARDS] from February to April 2020 were included. The patients were divided into NIPPV group and HFNC group according to their oxygen therapy modes. Clinical data of patients were collected, including general characteristics, respiratory rate (RR), fraction of FiO 2, SpO 2, heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), S/F ratio in the first 72 hours, lymphocyte count (LYM), percentage of lymphocyte (LYM%) and white blood cell count (WBC) at admission and discharge or death, the duration of dyspnea before NIPPV and HFNC, and the length from onset to admission. The differences of intubation rate, all-cause mortality, S/F ratio and RR were analyzed, and single factor analysis and generalized estimation equation (GEE) were used to analyze the risk factors affecting S/F ratio. Results:Among the 41 patients, the proportion of males was high (68.3%, 28 cases), the median age was 68 (58-74) years old, 28 cases had complications (68.3%), and 34 cases had multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS, 82.9%). Compared with HFNC group, the proportion of complications in NIPPV group was higher [87.5% (21/24) vs. 41.2% (7/17), P < 0.05], and the value of LYM% was lower [5.3% (3.4%-7.8%) vs. 10.0% (3.9%-19.7%), P < 0.05], the need of blood purification was also significantly lower [0% (0/24) vs. 29.4% (5/17), P < 0.05]. The S/F ratio of NIPPV group gradually increased after 2 hours treatment and RR gradually decreased with over time, S/F ratio decreased and RR increased in HFNC group compared with baseline, but there was no significant difference in S/F ratio between the two groups at each time point. RR in NIPPV group was significantly higher than that in HFNC group after 2 hours treatment [time/min: 30 (27-33) vs. 24 (21-27), P < 0.05]. There was no significant difference in rate need intubation and hospital mortality between NIPPV group and HFNC group [66.7% (16/24) vs. 70.6% (12/17), 58.3% (14/24) vs. 52.9% (9/17), both P > 0.05]. Analysis of the factors affecting the S/Fratio in the course of oxygen therapy showed that the oxygen therapy mode and the course of illness at admission were the factors affecting the S/F ratio of patients [ β values were -15.827, 1.202, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were -29.102 to -2.552 and 0.247-2.156, P values were 0.019 and 0.014, respectively]. Conclusion:Compared with HFNC, NIPPV doesn't significantly reduce the intubation rate and mortality of patients with COVID-19 accompanied with ARDS, but it significantly increases the S/F ratio of those patients.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the inhibitory effects of total alkaloids of Gelsemium elegans (TAG) on the proliferation and angiogenesis of human colon cancer cells. METHODS :Human colon cancer cell line HT- 29 and HUVEC were cultured in vitro . After the intervention of low- ,medium-,high-dose TAG (40,80,120 μg/mL),the morphology of the two cells was observed by fluorescence inversion microscope. The survival rate of HT- 29 cells and HUVEC was detected by CCK- 8 assay. Flow cytometry was used to detect HT- 29 cell cycle. The migration rate ,invasion rate and tube number of HUVEC were observed by scratching test ,Transwell invasion experiment and tube formation experiment. RESULTS :Compared with blank group ,HT-29 cells and HUVEC were decreased to different extents in TAG groups ;dead cells were observed ,and the survival rate of both decreased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The proportion of HT- 29 cells at G 2/M phase in TAG groups as well as those at G 0/G1 phase in medium-dose group were increased significantly ;the proportion of HT- 29 cells at S phase in TAG groups as well as those at G 0/G1 phase in high-dose group were decreased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Survival rate ,migration rate and invasion rate of HUVEC were decreased significantly in TAG groups ,and tube number was also decreased significantly at each time point during 4-24 h(P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS :TAG have inhibitory effect on the proliferation of human colon cancer HT- 29 cells and HUVEC,can change HT- 29 cell cycle ,inhibit the migration ,invasion and tube formation of HUVEC.
