RESUMEN
Hyperlipidemia is a dyslipidemia caused by dyslipidemia of lipid metabolism, which can be divided into primary and secondary types. The current clinical diagnostic criteria are mainly changes in lipid levels, which are the inducers of high-risk cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, pancreatitis and coronary heart disease. As a key target in lipid metabolism, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) is involved in a variety of metabolic activities, including fatty acid degradation, synthesis, transport, storage, lipoprotein metabolism, etc. Activation of PPARα can maintain the balance of lipid metabolism through a variety of ways, which is an important way to treat hyperlipidemia. At present, chemical drugs such as statins and bettes are mainly used in the clinical treatment of hyperlipidemia. Although they can slow down the disease to a certain extent, there are many adverse reactions and drug resistance. By reviewing the literature in recent years, the author found that the activation of PPARα pathway by traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of hyperlipidemia has significant effect and small adverse reactions. The lipid-lowering active ingredients include flavonoids, alkaloids, phenols, terpenoids and other compounds. These active components mainly affect the expression of downstream effectors through the activation of PPARα pathway, thereby inhibiting the synthesis of total cholesterol and promoting fatty acid oxidation, and play a role in the treatment of hyperlipidemia. In this paper, we systematically reviewed the structure types and mechanism of active components of traditional Chinese medicine that activate PPARα pathway, so as to provide guidance for the rational development and clinical application of lipid-lowering traditional Chinese medicine new drugs.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of pivot-regulating manipulations applied in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) clinical nursing for infantile anorexia based on the meridian and acupoint theory. Methods One hundred and twenty children with anorexia were randomly divided into trial group and control group , 60 cases in each group. The control group was given spine-pinching therapy based on the conventional nursing care. The trial group was given pivot-regulating manipulations based on the conventional nursing care , and the pivot-regulating manipulations covered manipulating spleen -stomach meridian , regulating Neibagua, kneading Banmen, kneading abdomen, manipulating acupoints of Zhongwan, Tianshu and Zusanli, and pinching spine according to the deficiency-excess differentiation, once every other day and 3 times constituting one course of treatment. After treatment for 2 courses, the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated. The changes in TCM symptom scores and physical examination indexes of body height, body mass, head circumference, chest circumference, height-for-age (HT/A), weight-for-age (WT/A) in the two groups were observed before and after treatment. Results(1) Five cases(3 differentiated into excess syndrome and 2 into deficiency syndrome) of the trial group dropped out and quitted from the trial, and 6 cases of the control group dropped out and quitted from the trial. (2) After two courses of treatment, the total effective rate of the trial group was 94.55%, and that of the control group was 87.04%, the difference being significant (P < 0.05). (3) After treatment, the scores of appetite and food-intake amount, complexion and lip color, water intake, restlessness, and urination as well as TCM symptom scores in both groups were improved; the WT/A of the trial group was also improved (P < 0.05 compared with those before treatment). The trial group had better effect on improving the scores of appetite and food-intake amount, complexion and lip color, and restlessness as well as TCM symptom scores than the control group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.001). The trial group also showed better effect on improving body mass, body height, head circumference, and HT/A than the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion As a nursing method based on the meridian and acupoint theory as well as syndrome differentiation and treatment, pivot-regulating manipulations are effective for the treatment of infantile anorexia by quickly starting an effect and obviously relieving the symptoms.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the association between homocysteine level and prethrombotic status and long-term thromboembolic events in patients with primary hypertension.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Results between 110 hypertensive patients with elevated homocysteine (HCY) level were compared with 110 hypertensive patients with normal HCY level which were enrolled from October 2003 to November 2009. Fibrinogen (FIB), viscosity, thrombomodulin (TM), granule membrane protein (GMP-140), prethrombin F1+2 fragment (F1+2), D-dimer fragment (D-Dimer) and antithrombin III (AT-III) were measured and correlated to HCY and prethrombotic state. The endpoints of the study were arterial and venous thromboembolic events. The variables linked with arterial and venous thromboembolic events were included in Cox proportional hazard models. The event-free survival was illustrated with Kaplan-Meier survival curves and compared by the Log-rank test.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The patients were followed up for 8-122 months (median follow-up time was 85 months). Compared with hypertensive patients with normal HCY, the plasma level of TM ((4.8±1.2) µg/L vs. (4.5±1.0) µg/L, P = 0.045), GMP-140 ((18.8±3.2) µg/L vs. (17.1±4.3) µg/L, P = 0.001), F1+2 ((1.2±0.4) nmol/L vs. (1.0±0.6) nmol/L, P = 0.004) were significantly higher while the plasma level of AT-III ((95.3±10.4) % vs. (98.6±10.6)%, P = 0.021) was significantly lower in hypertensive patients with elevated HCY level. FIB, viscosity of plasma and D-dimer were similar between the two groups. Multiple regression analyses indicated that HCY level was negatively correlated with AT-III (β = -0.199, P = 0.011) and positively correlated with age (β = 0.217, P = 0.04), female gender (β = 5.667, P = 0.001) and TM (β = 2.341, P = 0.003). Cox multivariate analysis revealed that age and HCY level were independent prognostic risk factors of thromboembolic events (OR 1.046, 95% CI 1.013-1.082, OR 1.052, 95% CI 1.027-1.078, respectively) (all P < 0.05). Kaplan-Meier curves showed that there was a significant difference in the event-free survival between the two groups (Log-rank test, P = 0.027).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Compared with normal HCY hypertensive patients, the levels of plasma prothrombin activators such as TM, GMP-140 and F1+2 were significant increased and anti-thrombin factor such as AT-III was significant decreased in hypertensive patients with elevated HCY. Old age and high HCY level were independent prognostic risk factors of thromboembolic events. The event-free survival in hypertensive patients with elevated HCY is lower than in hypertensive patients with normal HCY level.</p>

RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the stabilization of betaine on the enzyme activity of ALT in human serum at different temperatures, and to evaluate the matrix effects of human serum with betaine among different analytical systems. Methods The enzyme activity of ALT in human serums with l mol/L betaine stored at 37 ℃, 25 ℃, 4 ℃ and - 20 ℃ respectively were measured. The matrix effect experiment was carried out according to the procedures specified in Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI)document EP14-A. Four analytical systems were the candidates for evaluation, and Roche Diagnostics (Roche)-Hitachi analytical system served as the reference system. The enzyme activity of ALT of 40 patient specimens and 3-level specimens ( high, medium and low) with 1 mol/L betaine were measured using the evaluated methods and the reference method respectively. The linear regression analysis was performed to compare the mean y value of 3-level specimens with the statistically defined limits ( the two-tailed 95% prediction interval) derived from 40 patient specimen data. Results The enzyme activity of ALT could be stabilized with betaine in serum, which remained to be 99% for 48 h at 37 ℃, 98% for4 d at 25 ℃, 97%for 4 weeks at 4 ℃, and 99% for 4 months at - 20 ℃. The enzyme activity of control serum decreased to 42%, 86%, 71%, 79% respectively. The mean y values of three specimens with the betaine were within the 95% prediction interval of the estimated mean y values, which suggested no obvious matrix effects in serum. Conclusion Betaine can be used in the development of enzyme ALT calibrator as its stabilizer.

Objective To investigate therapeutic mechanism of radiation therapy associated with Doeetaxel on human uterine cervi-cal carcinoma. Method Hela cells were incubated with 0. 5 μmol/L, 1.01 μmol/Docetaxel for 24 hours, and were radiated with 0, 2, 4, 6, 8Gy X ray. The proliferation activity was detected with MTT method. Apoptosis was evaluated with TUNEL method. Expression of caspase-3 protein and the degradation fragment was measured with Western blot. Result Inhibitory effect of radiation therapy associated Docetaxel on Hela cells was significantly stronger than that of radiation group. Treated with 2 Gy and 6MV X ray radiation, inhibitory rate of Hela cells increased with the increment of associated Docetaxel doses (P<0.05). Inhibitory rate of Hela cells in radiation associated Docetaxel group was significantly increased compared with radiation group. Apoptosis index in radiation associated Docetaxel group 48 hours after treatment was significantly increased compared with radiation group or Docetaxel group with TUNEL method (P<0.05). Western blot results indies-ted that caspase-3 protein was degraded and small active fragments were produced. Conclusion The reason that Docetaxel enhanced Hela cell radiation sensitivity may probably he correlated to easpase-3 protein activation.
