RESUMO
From April through July 1988, an epidemiological investigation on Lyme disease was carried out in Nalati Xanyuan, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China. Of 150 Ixodes persulcatus ticks examined by darkfield microscopy, 42 (28%) were found to have spirochetes. Two strains of spirochetes were isolated from I. persulcatus with BSK medium. Rabbits inoculated with the spirochetes showed erythema chronicum migrans at the sites of inoculation and the spirochetes were found in the cerebrospinal fluid by darkfield microscopy. Serum samples from 63 patients were examined for antibodies to B. burgdorferi by IFA test and 11 of them were positive with a titer of 1:64. Upon these results, it may be concluded that natural focus of Lyme disease exists in Xinjiang, China.

In order to evaluate the role and mechanism of Jinshisan (JSS) in bile stone dissolution, 164 cases of extra-/ intrahepatic biliary stone patients were treated by a collaborated group, the therapeutic effect was observed by B-ultrasonography before and after treatment. Results showed: (1) Among the 164 cases, 26 cases (15.85%) were cured clinically; 73 (44.51%) were effective and 65 (39.63%) ineffective. (2) After treatment, in 84 patients of right hepatolith, the stone were diappeared in 10 cases, the size or number of stone decreased in 44 casess. In 34 patients with left hepatolith, the figure were 5 and 13 respectively. In 10 cases of choledocholith they were 10 and 10 respectively. While in 21 cases of multiple gallstone, only one case with stones of both sides disappeared, except 3 ineffective cases, others with stone decreased in size or number or disappeared unilaterally. (3) Gallston diappeared in 7 of 10 patients with size of stone

Effect of GJE on the prevention and treatment of experimental acute pancreatitis was observed by means of testing pancreatic, hepatic, gastric and intestinal blood flow. The results show that the blood flow of internal organs that decreases significantly at the early stage of acute necrotizing hemorrhagic pancreatitis in rats can be picked up by GJE especially pancreatic.
