RESUMEN
By systematically examing through Longdan Xiegan Decoction in medical books of the past dynasties, it was found that the Longdan Xiegan Decoction recorded in Lan Shi Mi Cang mainly targeted men's genital odor at frist. After Xue Ji's addition and subtraction, the scope of the prescription was gradually generalized and expanded, and confusion its name, composition and source of the prescription appeared, which was particularly prominent in Jingyue Quanshu and Yifang Jijie.Doctors used to interpret this prescription from the perspective of viscera. In order to better understand the main treatment rules of Longdan Xiegan Decoction, it is necessary to change the perspective and reinterpreted it from the perspective of meridians.Attributing the symptoms of the perineum to Liver Meridian of Foot-Jueyin,hypochondriac pain, deafness and other symptoms to the Gallbladder Meridian of Foot-Shaoyang, and adding or subtracting herbs according to the specific conditions, is not only conducive to a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the prescription to achieve accurate clinical syndrome differentiation and medication, but also prompts modern researchers to rethink the important role of meridian theory in the formation and development of the theoretical system of traditional Chinese medicine.

BACKGROUND: Anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF)s form a major part of therapy in Crohn's disease and have a primary nonresponse rate of 10%-30% and a secondary loss of response rate of 5% per year. Myopenia is prevalent in Crohn's disease and is measured using body composition analysis tools. AIM: To test the hypothesis that body composition can predict outcomes of anti-TNF primary nonresponse and secondary loss of response. METHODS: Between January 2007 and June 2012, 106 anti-TNF naïve patients underwent anti-TNF therapy for Crohn's disease with body composition parameters analysed using CT scans to estimate body fat-free mass. The outcome measures were primary nonresponse and secondary loss of response. COX-regression analysis was used with 3 year follow-up data. RESULTS: A total of 106 patients were included for analysis with 26 (24.5%) primary nonresponders and 29 (27.4%) with secondary loss of response to anti-TNF therapy. Sex-specific cut-offs for muscle and fat were ascertained by stratification analysis. On univariate analysis, primary nonresponse was associated with low albumin (OR 0.94; 0.88-0.99, P = .04) and presence of myopenia (OR 4.69; 1.83-12.01, P = .001) when taking into account patient's medical therapy, severity of disease and body composition. On multivariate analysis, presence of myopenia was associated with primary nonresponse (OR 2.93; 1.28-6.71, P = .01). Immunomodulator therapy was associated with decreased secondary loss of response (OR 0.48; 0.23-0.98, P = .04). BMI was poorly correlated with lean body mass (r2 = 0.15, P = .54). CONCLUSIONS: In this cohort study, body composition profiles did not correlate well with BMI. Myopenia was associated with primary nonresponse with potential implications for dosing and serves as an explanation for pharmacokinetic failure.

The vitamin D receptor (VDR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that regulates gene expression in many cell types, including immune cells. It requires binding of 1,25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 (1,25D3) for activation. Many autoimmune diseases show latitude-dependent prevalence and/or association with vitamin D deficiency, and vitamin D supplementation is commonly used in their clinical management. 1,25D3 is regulated by genes associated with the risk of autoimmune diseases and predominantly expressed in myeloid cells. We determined the VDR cistrome in monocytes and monocyte-derived inflammatory (DC1) and tolerogenic dendritic cells (DC2). VDR motifs were highly overrepresented in ChIP-Seq peaks in stimulated monocyte (40%), DC1 (21%) and DC2 (47%), PAsunto(s)

RESUMEN
It has been shown that the fatsoluble extract SeE from carbonized Schizonepeta tenuifolia has an obvious hemostatic action. In a given range of dose there is a significant linear correlation between the logarithms of its doses and the reciprocal of the bleeding and coagulating times in mice. Obvious hemostatic action was observed after mice had been administered in ip and po respectively for 0.5h and 1h. The hemostatic time of the former was 6h and the latter 12h. The LD50 of StE in po was 2.652 +/- 0.286 g/kg, while in ip 1.945 4/- 0.207 g/kg.
