Correlativity between blood-stasis syndrome in cardiopathy and activity of f ibrinolytic system / 中华中医药杂志

Objective:To explore the pathologic mechanism of blood-stasis syndrome in cardiopathy(BSSC) and its different syndrome types from the activity of fi brinolytic system.Methods:72 cases with BSSC,20 cases with non-blood-stasis syndrome in cardiopathy(NBSSC) were observed at random,20 healthy cases as control.The levels of tissue-plasminogen activator(t-PA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1) in blood plasma were detected by ELISA.Results:①The level of t-PA in the group of BSSC was signifi cantly lower than that in the groups of healthy control and NBSSC(P

Estrogen receptor ? (ER?) gene polymorphism of perimenopausal syndrome patients with liver qi stagnation syndrome (LQSS) / 中华中医药杂志

Objective:To investigate the association between polymorphisms of estrogen receptor ? (ER?) gene (rs3020444) and perimenopausal syndrome (PS) in patients with liver qi stagnation syndrome (LQSS). Metheds:The ER?T/C genotype in 100 patients of PS of LQSS type (PS-LQSS group),86 patients of PS of non-LSDS type (PS-non-LQSS group) and 100 healthy subjects (control) was determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay. Results:Partitions of ?2 method showed that the higher prevalence of ER?-TT genotypes was noted in PS-LQSS group (?2=8.307,P=0.004),and the higher prevalence of T alleles was noted in PS-LQSS group (?2=7.129,P=0.008). and Multinomial logistic-regression indicated that the odds ratios (OR) of the ER?-TT genotypes vs TC/CC for PS-LQSS was 2.222 (95%CI:1.172-4.744,P=0.015) after adjusting for common miscellaneous factors. Conclusions:It was suggested that ER?-TT genotypes was significantly associated with PS-LQSS,and ESR?-TT may be one of the genes that contribute to PS-LQSS.

Changes of Plasma Von Willebrand Factor Content in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Late Lung Cancer Patients with Qi Deficiency / 广州中医药大学学报

Objective To observe the changes of plasma Von Willebrand factor(vWF) content in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) and late lung cancer(LLC) patients with Qi deficiency.Methods The changes of vWF content in 26 COPD patients with Qi deficiency and in 15 LLC patients with Qi deficiency were observed before and after treatment,and were compared with those in 30 healthy volunteers.Results Plasma vWF content before treatment was increased in COPD and LLC patients with Qi deficiency(P0.05).Conclusion Abnormal platelet activation exists in COPD and LLC patients with Qi deficiency,the function of vascular endothelial cells decreases,and the blood is in hypercoagulable state,which accords with the traditional Chinese medical theory of Qi failing in promoting blood circulation.
