ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect and safety of Jiuxin Pill （救心丸） on exercise tolerance and quality of life in patients with stable angina pectoris （SAP）. MethodsA randomised， double-blind， placebo-controlled， multicentre study design was used to enroll 170 patients of SAP from nine centres， which were divided into 85 patients each in the trial group and control group with 1∶1 ratio. Both groups maintained the original western medicine treatment plan， and added Jiuxin Pill or placebo respectively， 2 pills （0.05 g） each time twicely for 28 days. The main outcomes were total exercise time （TED） in the exercise treadmill test and Seattle Angina Questionnaire （SAQ） scores including physical limitation （PL）， angina stability （AS）， angina frequency （AF）， treatment satisfaction （TS）， and disease perception （DP）. The secondary outcomes were exercise treadmill test indicators including heart rate recovery in 1 min （HRR1）， metabolic equivalents （METs）， maximum magnitude of ST-segment depression， and the Borg rating of perceived exertion scale， the average number of angina attacks per week， withdrawal and reduction rate of nitroglycerin， traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores， incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events. Safety indicators were evaluated and the occurrence of adverse events during the trial was recorded. Data was collected before treatment， day 28±2 in treatment period， and follow-up at day 56 which is 28±2 days after treatment period finished. ResultsEighty-four and eighty-five patients respectively from trial group and control group were included to the full analysis set （FAS） and safety analysis set （SS）. Compared with the group before treatment and with the control group after treatment， the trial group had higher TED， HRR1， and METs， and lower maximum magnitude of ST-segment depression and Borg rating of perceived exertion scores after treatment （P＜0.01）. Compared with the group before treatment and with the control group after treatment and at follow-up， the total SAQ score and scores of AS， AF， TS and DP of the trial group after treatment and at follow-up elevated， while the average number of angina attacks per week and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores reduced （P＜0.01）. There was no statistically significant difference in the withdrawal and reduction rate of nitroglycerin between groups （P＞0.05）. Major adverse cardiovascular events occurred in 1 case （1/84， 1.19%） in the trial group and 1 case （1/85， 1.18%） in the control group， and the difference between groups was not statistically significant （P＞0.05）. A total of 3 cases of adverse events occurred in the trial group （3/84， 3.57%）， and a total of 6 cases of adverse events occurred in the control group （6/85， 7.06%）， and there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse events between groups （P＞0.05）. ConclusionIn the treatment of SAP， Jiuxin Pill combined with conventional western medicine can further enhance exercise tolerance， improve quality of life， and demonstrate great safety.

Objective:To assess the safety and feasibility of Bi's intestinal loop binding treatment of esophageal jejunal anastomotic leak after total gastrectomy.Methods:Bi's Intestinal loop binding are suitable for patients who underwent radical total gastrectomy+Roux-en-Y anastomosis and were confirmed by upper gastrointestinal angiography to have esophageal jejunal anastomotic leakage and whose conservative or endoscopic treatment was ineffective. The operation procedure is as follows: take the original central incision of the upper abdomen, remove the abscess around the anastomoses after ventral incision, and place drainage tube inside the abscess, which is convenient to rinse and drain after operation. A double 1-0 VICRYL is applied to the loop of gastrointestinal surrogate 10-15 cm proximal to the jejuno-jejunal anastomosis. The knot tension is tight to prevent regurgitation of digestive juices, but too much force should be avoided to cut the intestinal tract. Nutritional jejunostomy fistula was performed at 10?15 cm distal to the jejuno-jejunal anastomosis and gastric tube was retained during the operation. The preoperative and postoperative data from 12 patients with jejunal esophageal anastomotic leak after total radical gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y anastomosis were retrospectively analyzed from October 2016 to January 2023 in gastrointestinal surgery and pancreas surgery at Shanxi People's Hospital, and observed the curative effect.Results:12 patients were managed with Bi's Intestinal loop binding, operative time (60.0±20.8) minutes, median bleeding (50±10.8) ml, median hospital stay 20(12~28) days, and median reviewing upper and mid Gastrointestinal Contrast time postoperatively 61(52~74) days. The results showed that the anastomoses healed well, all the small intestine showed good imaging, the binding wire fell off by itself, and two patients had incision infection.Conclusions:It is safe and feasible for patients with esophageal jejunostomy fistulae after total gastrectomy to use the method of Bi's Intestinal loop binding.

Objective:To study the influence of bone morphogenetic protein-7 ( BMP-7 ) on chondro-cyte secretion and expression of type Ⅱ collagen ( Col-Ⅱ) , aggrecan ( AGG ) and SRY-related high mobility group-box gene 9 ( Sox9 ) mRNA in porous tantalum-chondrocyte composites.Methods: The articular chondrocytes were isolated from 3-week-old New Zealand immature rabbits and identified.The 2nd generation of chondrocytes with 1 ×106/mL inoculate concentration was seeded in porous tantalum and divided into 4 groups, and control group ( tantalum/chondrocyte) , 50μg/L BMP-7 group (50μg/L BMP-7/tantalum/chondrocyte) , 100 μg/L BMP-7 group ( 100 μg/L BMP-7/tantalum/chondrocyte ) , and 200 μg/L BMP-7 group ( 200 μg/L BMP-7/tantalum/chondrocyte ) .The proliferation of chondro-cytes was measured by CCK-8 assay.The chondrocyte growth and morphology were observed by scanning electron microscopy ( SEM) .The synthesis of glycosaminoglycan ( GAG) in chondrocytes was tested by dimethyl methylene blue ( DMMB) colorimetric quantification method.Col-Ⅱ, AGG and Sox9 mRNA in chondrocytes were detected by real-time PCR.Results: The chondrocytes were spindle-shaped in 24 hours of primary cell culture and most cells became polygonal shaped in 4 days.The chondrocytes were affirmed by alcian blue, safranin O and Col-Ⅱimmunocytochemistry staining.The result of CCK-8 assay showed that the level of cell proliferation in 100 μg/L BMP-7 groups were higher than those in the other groups ( P<0 .05 ) .The chondrocytes implanted into porous tantalum scaffolds with BMP-7 had better functions, by which cytoplasmic processes developed and extended to the surface and inner of porous tan-talum by SEM observation.DMMB quantitative determination of GAG showed that GAG amount of chon-drocytes in 100 μg/L BMP-7 groups was significantly higher than those in the other groups ( P<0 .05 ) . The expressions of Col-Ⅱ, AGG and Sox9 mRNA in chondrocytes were up-regulated in the experimental groups, compared with the control group and the best effect appeared when concentration of BMP-7 was 200μg/L.(P<0.05).Conclusion:BMP-7/tantalum/chondrocytes composites enhanced in vitro chon-drocyte proliferation and extracellular matrix greatly, and can promote chondrogenic gene expression.

Objective To review the clinical characteristics,diagnosis and treatments of primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) in head and neck.Methods A retrospective review of the medical records for the cases of PNET in head and neck from 2004 to 2014.General clinical information including diagnosis and treatments was obtained and analyzed.A literature review was also conducted.Results A total of 5 cases diagnosed with PNET were included.Of 5 patients,one patient with lesion in the temporal field was treated with radical resection,followed by radiotherapy,and a 24-month follow-up showed no recurrence.Three patients presented with maxillary,infratemporal fossa or cheek invasion respectively,after diagnosed with pathological examination,one patient received preoperation radiotherapy plus radical resection and postoperative chemotherapy,and the lesions had no obvious progress with follow-up of 106 months;one patient was applied with preoperative chemotherapy plus extensive resection and postoperation radiotherapy,showed recurrence 15 months later,and was lost to follow-up;and another patient underwent chemotherapy plus radiotherapy and extensive resection,presented with pulmonary metastasis 5 months later,and died of brain metastasis within 25 months.One foreign patient presented with tumor involved submaxillary,mouth and tongue,the tumor was reduced obviously after chemotherapy,but he was lost to follow-up after getting home.Conclusions PNET in head and neck is rare and the clinical profile of PNET is the presence of occupying and compression.The pathology examination is an only way to confirm the diagnosis of PNET.The combination of excision,radiotherapy and chemotherapy is the treatment choice.

Using a UPLC-MS/MS (MRM) and cocktail probe substrates method, the metabolic fingerprint of the compatibility of Radix Aconite (RA) and Radix Paeoniae Alba (RPA) and its effect on CYP450 enzymes were investigated. These main CYP isoforms include CYP 1A2, CYP 2C, CYP 2E1, CYP 2D and CYP 3A. Compared with the inhibition effect of RA decoctions on CYP450 isoforms, their co-decoctions of RA and RPA with different proportions can decrease RA' inhibition on CYP3A, CYP2D, CYP2C and CYP1A2, but can not reduce RA' effect on CYP2E1. The metabolic fingerprints of RA decoction and co-decoctions with different proportions of RPA in CYP450 of rat liver were analyzed by UPLC-MS. Compared with the metabolic fingerprints of RA decoction, the intensity of diester-diterpenoid aconitum alkaloids decreased significantly, while the intensity of monoester-diterpenoid alkaloids significantly increased in the metabolic fingerprints of co-decoctions of RA and RPA. The results suggest that RA coadministration with RPA increased the degradation of toxic alkaloid and show the effect of toxicity reducing and efficacy enhancing.
