RESUMO
BACKGROUND:Serum-specific biomarkers between normal healthy individuals and populations with developmental cervical canal stenosis(Qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome)have not been fully defined. OBJECTIVE:To screen and identify the potential biomarkers of developmental cervical canal stenosis with Qi deficiency and blood stasis. METHODS:Serum samples were collected from nine patients with developmental cervical canal stenosis with Qi deficiency and blood stasis and eight healthy people.Differentially expressed proteins in serum were screened and identified using isotope relative labeling and absolute quantification combined with liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry.Western blot was used to verify some significant differentially expressed proteins. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 61 differentially expressed proteins(P<0.05)were identified using tandem mass spectrometry techniques.Compared with the healthy normal population group,14 differentially expressed proteins such as complement component C1q receptor,apolipoprotein A4,and C-C motif chemokine ligand 18 were significantly upregulated,while 47 differentially expressed proteins such as myosin light chain 3,mitochondrial translation elongation factor,and nucleolar phosphoprotein 1 were significantly downregulated.The results of gene ontology enrichment analysis indicated that these differentially expressed proteins might participate in molecular functions such as regulation of chromosomal tissue,mitochondrial membrane tissue,and muscle system processes.Protein-protein interaction network analysis showed that 38 common differential proteins,including complement component C1q receptor,apolipoprotein A4,C-C motif chemokine ligand 18,myosin light chain 3,mitochondrial translation elongation factor,and nucleolar phosphoprotein 1,were located at functional network nodes between healthy normal individuals and those with developmental cervical canal stenosis(Qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome),and were closely related to the local energy metabolism of the cervical spine,the production of cervical vertebral osteocytes,and the formation of osteoclasts.The main differentially expressed protein myosin light chain 3 was validated using western blot assay,and the validation results were consistent with the proteomic results.To conclude,the preliminary discovery of differentially expressed proteins in serum between healthy normal individuals and those with developmental cervical canal stenosis(Qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome)through absolute quantitative technology combined with liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry technology suggests that myosin light chain 3 may be a specific serum marker for developmental cervical canal stenosis(Qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome).
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of phlegm and nourishing Yin combined with glucocorticoids in the treatment of refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia in children .Methods 134 children with Mycoplasma pneumonia were divided into control group and observation group according to the random number , 67 cases in each group .The control group were given hydrocortisone ,and the observation group received phlegm and nourishing Yin combined with glucocorticoid .After intervention ,the clinical data and the improvement of the clinical symptoms of the two groups were compared .Results There was no statistically significant difference in antipyretic time between the two groups(P>0.05).The time of cough relief,the absorption time of lung rales,the disappearance time of pleural effusion of the observation group were (3.61 ±1.13) d,(6.52 ±1.90) d and (7.02 ±2.10) d, respectively,which were significantly shorter than those of the control group [(4.89 ±2.18)d,t=2.920,P=0.021;(8.24 ±2.75)d,t=3.108,P=0.000;(9.26 ±2.38)d,t=5.027,P=0.000].There were no statistically signifi-cant differences in the total white blood cell count ,C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate between the two groups(all P>0.05).The percentage of lymphocytes in the observation group [(55.25 ±4.91)％] was signifi-cantly higher than that in the control group [(50.16 ±4.83)％,t=2.597,P=0.037].The effective treatment rate in the observation group was 97.01％,which was significantly higher than 83.58％in the control group (χ26.849,P=0.009).Conclusion Heat phlegm and nourishing Yin combined with glucocorticoid can not only effectively improve the patients'clinical symptoms , improve the proportion of lymphocyte , but also can improve the overall efficacy of children,it is worthy of clinical promotion .
RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To research the genetic diversity of different Rhodiola rosea geographical populations in Tianshan Mountain, China;</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The genetic diversity of eighteen R. rosea geological populations from six niches was estimated using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. The data of amplified bands were analyzed by the software POPGENE v1.31 (32-bit) and SPSS.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The nine primers employed produced a total of 238 discernable and reproducible amplified fragments. There were 228 polymorphic bands. The percentage of polymorphic bands with in different populations was 95.6%. Genetic diversity analysis showed that average number of alleles per loci was Na = 1.4883, effective number of alleles per loci Ne = 1.3907, Neis gene diversity index H = 0.2170, Shannon's information index I = 0.3108, the percentage of polymorphic loci P = 52.71, genetic differentiation among populations Gst = 0.364; UPGMA cluster analysis based on genetic distance data divided eighteen populations into two clusters: Cluster I composed of twelve populations and Cluster II 6 populations which distributed in attitude upper 3 175 m;</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Our researches suggest that the best niche of R. rosea was at attitude between 3 150-3 250 m; this region is important for the conservation of R. rosea germplasm resource.</p>
