RESUMEN
Objective:To summarize the thinking and compatibility law of TCM in the treatment of stable angina pectoris (SAP) based on syndrome differentiation using data mining technology.Methods:The clinical studies of TCM treatment for SAP in databases of CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP and SinoMed China Biomedical Literature Service System were retrieved from the establishment of the databases to February 28, 2022. The frequency statistic, clustering analysis and association rule analysis of TCM data were conducted using Clementine 12.0, Excel 2016, SPSS Statistics 22.0 software, and core prescriptions were summarized.Results:Totally 289 prescriptions were included, involving 185 kinds of Chinese materia medica, including 38 TCM syndrome types. Based on the overall study of SAP "disease", the clinical treatment of SAP was mainly based on the drugs for activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis, tonifying deficiency and strengthening healthy qi, and regulating qi and resolving phlegm. The single Chinese materia medica with high frequency of use were Chuanxiaong Rhizoma, Salviea Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Angelicae Sinensis Radix, Angelicae Sinensis Radix, etc. The commonly used drug pairs included Chuanxiaong Rhizoma-Angelicae Sinensis Radix, Chuanxiaong Rhizoma-Carthami Flos, Chuanxiaong Rhizoma-Aurantii Fructus Immaturus, etc. The drug complex network diagram and clustering analysis showed that the prescription of Buyang Huanwu Decoction was the basic prescription for the treatment of SAP; based on the specific research of SAP "syndrome", the most common TCM syndromes of SAP were qi deficiency and blood stasis, phlegm and blood stasis, and qi stagnation and blood stasis. The drug properties of the three drugs were mainly warm and mild; the tastes were mainly sweet, pungent and bitter, and most of them belong to the liver, spleen, lung and heart meridian; in terms of specific medication, the basic prescription of qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome was Buyang Huanwu Decoction, which was composed of high-frequency drugs such as Angelicae Sinensis Radix, Chuanxiaong Rhizoma, Salviea Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, etc; The phlegm and blood stasis syndrome was often based on the Gualou Xiebai Banxia Decoction and Taohong Siwu Decoction, which were composed of high frequency drugs such as Pinelliae Rhizoma, Chuanxiaong Rhizoma, Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus, etc; the basic prescription of qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome was Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction, which was composed of high frequency drugs such as Chuanxiaong Rhizoma, Angelicae Sinensis Radix, Aurantii Fructus. Drug clustering analysis showed that both qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome and qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome were divided into 3 categories, and phlegm and blood stasis syndrome were divided into 4 categories.Conclusions:Deficiency, blood stasis, phlegm and stagnation are important pathological factors of SAP, in which qi deficiency is the basis of SAP, blood stasis runs through the disease, or both phlegm and qi stagnation. Focusing on the pathogenesis of deficiency in root and excess in superficiality, drugs with the efficacy of tonifying the deficiency and promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis are used in clinical treatment, according to different syndrome differentiation of prescription selection.
RESUMEN
Objective:To compare the clinical outcomes between replacement with a composite press-fit radial head prosthesis versus open reduction and plate-screw internal fixation in the treatment of adult Mason Ⅲ radial head fractures.Methods:The clinical data of 64 adult patients with Mason Ⅲ radial head fracture were retrospectively analyzed who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics, Beijing Friendship Hospital from January 2012 to December 2019. They were 18 males and 46 females, aged from 32 to 58 years (average, 45.7 years). They were divided into 2 groups: 32 cases received mini-plate-screw internal fixation (internal fixation group) and 32 cases replacement with a composite press-fit radial head prosthesis (replacement group). At the last follow-up, elbow valgus angle, range of elbow motion, Mayo score of elbow function and visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score were recorded and compared to evaluate the postoperative clinical outcomes.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups, showing they were comparable ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up for 8 to 48 months (average, 18.7 months). The operation time was, respectively, (81.4±8.2) min and (68.9±7.3) min for the internal fixation group and the replacement group, showing a statistically significant difference ( P< 0.05). For the internal fixation group and the replacement group at the last follow-up, the flexion and extension angles were 95° to 125° and 100° to 140°, the rotation angles 135.3°±11.2° and 143.5°±12.8°, and the Mayo scores 79.2±3.8 and 83.4±3.9, all significantly favoring the replacement group ( P<0.05). The VAS pain scores before operation and at the last follow-up were 7.6±0.7 and 0.9±0.7 for the internal fixation group, and 7.9±0.8 and 0.7±0.6 for the replacement group, showing significant differences between preoperation and the last follow-up in both groups ( P<0.05). All the incisions healed by the first intention, with no postoperative infection. Internal fixation loosening with ulnar neuritis was reported in one case in the internal fixation group; peri-prosthesis absorption with no prosthesis loosening was observed in one case in the replacements group. Conclusion:In the treatment of adult Mason Ⅲ radial head fractures, although both replacements with a composite press-fit radial head prosthesis and open reduction and plate-screw internal fixation can lead to satisfactory results, the former may be more effective.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of balloon-assisted technique for the treatment of intraprocedural aneurysmal rupture (IAR) during intracranial aneurysm coil embolization and its impact on the clinical outcomes of patients.Methods:Patients with intracranial aneurysm received coil embolization and complicated with IAR in Xijing Hospital of Air Force Medical University from January 2013 to January 2019 were enrolled retrospectively. They were divided into balloon-assisted hemostasis group and rapid packing hemostasis group according to the methods of intraoperative hemostasis. The modified Rankin Scale was used to evaluate the clinical outcomes at 3-month postoperative follow-up. A score of 0-2 was defined as a good outcome. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent influencing factors of clinical outcome. Results:A total of 77 patients with IAR were enrolled, of which 46 (59.74%) used balloon-assisted hemostasis, and 31 (40.26%) used rapid packing hemostasis. In 51 patients (66.23%) with 3-month follow-up data, 32 (62.75%) had good outcomes, and 19 (37.25%) had poor outcomes. Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in time from IAR to treatment, time from IAR to confirmed hemostasis, postoperative Fisher grade changes, and good outcomes between the balloon-assisted hemostasis group and the rapid packing hemostasis group (all P<0.05). There were significant differences in IAR treatment methods, time from IAR to treatment, time from IAR to confirmed hemostasis, and postoperative Fisher grade changes between the good outcome group and the poor outcome group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that balloon-assisted hemostasis (odds ratio 0.234, 95% confidence interval 0.056-0.990; P=0.048) and time from IAR to confirmed hemostasis ≤10 min (odds ratio 0.097, 95% confidence interval 0.024-0.397; P=0.001) were the independent protective factors of the good outcomes in patients with IAR. Conclusion:Using balloon-assisted technique to treat IAR during intracranial aneurysm coil embolization can achieve satisfactory hemostatic effect and improve the clinical outcomes of patients.

Objective To quantitatively analyze the operation risks for femoral intertrochanteric frac-tures under the guidance of Acute Physiology and Chronic Health EvaluationⅡ( APACHEⅡ) . Methods A retrospective analysis was performed among the 226 patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture who had re-ceived surgery between January 2013 and January 2016. They were 59 men and 167 women, aged from 69 to 106 years ( average, 75. 4 ± 6. 1 years ) . Their average APACHEⅡscore was 18. 3 ± 6. 3 ( from 5 to 34 ) . They were divided into 3 groups according to their APACHEⅡscores: 127 cases in the low risk group (≤ 15 ) , 68 cases in the medium risk group ( from 16 to 24 ) and 31 cases in the high risk group ( ≥25 ) . The mortality was compared between the 3 groups. The deaths and survivals were compared in each group in terms of age, oper-ation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative blood transfusion and combined internal diseases. Results Thirteen patients died during hospitalization, giving a mortality of 5. 7% ( 13/226 ) . The causes for death were heart attack in 6 cases, respiratory failure in 4, toxic shock in 2 and renal failure in one. The mortality in the high risk group ( 22. 6%, 7/31 ) was significantly higher than in the low risk group ( 1. 6%, 2/125 ) and in the medium risk group ( 5. 9%, 4/68 ) ( P <0. 05 ) . In the low risk group, the intraoperative blood loss was sta-tistically different between deaths and survivals ( P <0. 05 ); in the medium risk group, the intraoperative blood loss and postoperative blood transfusion volume were statistically different between deaths and survivals ( P <0. 05 ); in the high risk group, the age and intraoperative blood loss were statistically different between deaths and survivals ( P <0. 05 ) . Conclusions APACHEⅡcan be used to quantitatively evaluate the patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture who usually suffer from intraoperative complications and concomitant in-ternal diseases. The most significant risk factor may be intraoperative blood loss.

Objective To compare 3 kinds of preoperative scoring systems used to predict 30-day mortality in a hip fracture population,Physiological and Operative Severity Score for Enumeration of Mortality and Morbidity (POSSUM),Portsmouth modified POSSUM (P-POSSUM) and Estimation of Physiologic Ability and Surgical Stress (E-PASS).Methods A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the aged 654 patients who had undergone surgery for femoral intertrochanteric fracture or femoral neck fracture from January 2010 through June 2014 at our hospital.They were 225 men and 429 women,60 to 103 years of age (average,71.7 years).There were 363 femoral intertrochanteric fractures and 291 femoral neck fractures.Closed reduction and intramedullary nailing was performed in 363 cases,artificial dipolar replacement in 242 cases,and total hip replacement in 49 cases.POSSUM,P-POSSUM and E-PASS scoring systems were used to predict the 30-day mortality.The discrepancy between the predictive risk and the actual observation was analyzed.Results Of the 654 patients,25 died within 30 days after operation.According to POSSUM scoring system,the predictability (observed deaths/POSSUM deaths) was 0.30,showing a significant difference between the predictive deaths and the actual deaths(x2=34.840,P=0.009).According to P-POSSUM and E-PASS scoring systems,the predictability was respectively 0.83 and 1.04,demonstrating no significant differences between the predictive deaths and the actual deaths(P > 0.05).Conclusion P-POSSUM and E-PASS scoring systems may predict 30-day mortality more accurately than POSSUM scoring system in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.
RESUMEN
Objective To study the effects of semaphorin 5A (SEMA5A) gene silencing by lentivirus?mediated short hairpin RNA(shRNA)on biological activity of malignant melanoma cell line A375. Methods Two pairs of interference sequences for SEMA5A gene(shRNA1 and A375?shRNA2)and a pair of control interference sequences were designed to build lentiviral vectors, which were then transfected into HEK293T cells to gain lentivirus. A375 cells were divided into three groups:experimental group(A375?shRNA1 and A375?shRNA2 cells)transfected with the lentivirus containing shRNA1 or shRNA2, negative control group (A375?con cells) transfected with that containing the control shRNA, and blank control group(A375 cells)receiving no transfection. The A375 cells with stable knockdown of SEMA5A gene expression were screened by puromycin. Subsequently, reverse transcription?PCR and Western?blot analysis were performed to detect mRNA and protein expressions of Semaphorin 5A in these cells, and methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT)assay was applied to evaluate the growth of cells. The scratch assay and invasion assay were conducted to estimate migration and invasion ability of cells. Results The lentivirus containing the SEMA5A?targeting shRNAs or control shRNA was successfully transfected into A375 cells, and stably transfected cells were gained after puromycin selection. The expressions of semaphorin 5A mRNA and protein in the A375?shRNA2 cells were significantly reduced compared with those in the A375?con and A375 cells(all P 0.05). The scratch assay showed that there was no obvious cell migration into the scratch in the experiment group, whereas the scratch was almost covered by cells in the negative control group and blank control group. The invasion assay showed that the number of A375?shRNA2 cells passing through the Transwell chamber was significantly smaller than that of A375 and A375?con cells(both P 0.05). Conclusion The silencing of SEMA5A gene by lentivirus?mediated shRNA could effectively down?regulate the expression of semaphorin 5A, and inhibit the growth, invasion and migration of A375 cells.
RESUMEN
Objective To analyze the causes of complications and death of the femoral intertrochanteric fracture during perioperative period, and to assess the orthopedics surgery risk of aged. Methods 499 of 547 cases were retrospectively re?viewed (132 male, 367 female), who underwent operation from May 2007 to Jun 2014 in our hospital. Their age varied from 59 to 103 years old, with an average of 78.3 ± 7.3 years old. According to Evans classification, there were 84 cases of type I, 67 type II, 187 type III, and 161 type IV. The causes of death were analyzed and discussed. The factors including health assess?ment before operation, age, operating time and blood loss were studied statistically to find out their correlation with mortality of operation. Results There were altogether 354 complications, including pulmonary infection, urinary system infection, DVT, and cardiac events. There were 30 cases of death and the mortality was 6.0%. The major causes of death included infectious shock, pulmonary infection, cardiac events, kidney failure and hemorrhagic shock caused by hepatic rupture. Statistical results from the score of APACHEⅡshowed the factor which definitely influenced the mortality was the amount of blood loss during op?eration.APACHEⅡscoring area under the ROC curve was 0.938, and the best cutoff value was 17.5 (about an index of 0.767), with the sensitivity of 86.7%and specificity of 90%. The area of risk of death under the ROC curve by APACHE Ⅱscore was 0.817, the best cutoff value of 16.765%(about an index of 0.483), and the sensitivity and specificity of 93.3%and 55.0%. Conclu?sion There were a lot of complications and accompanied diseases when femoral intertrochanteric fractures happened in aged pa?tients. The main cause of death was septic shock. There were relationships between hemoglobin and the operating time and the de?gree of trauma. What’s more, it was confirmed that the APACHEⅡscoring system was very useful to value the condition of the patients with femoral intertrochanteric fractures, which can be recommended.

Objective To investigate the pharmacokinetic difference between the combination of cyclophosphamide and cisplatin and single medication.Methods High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to detect the pharmacokinetic parameters and distribution parameters in tissue of cisplatin and cyclophosphamide.Results The pharmacokinetic curve of the CP regimen showed two-compartment model,and there was no significant difference between the absorption half life of the combination of the two drugs (0.56±0.02,0.72±0.02) and that of single medication (0.92±0.02,1.16±0.12) (t =2.091,t =2.379,both P > 0.05).While the elimination half life of the combination (0.56±0.02,0.72±0.02) was significantly longer compared with that of single medication (0.92±0.02,1.16±0.12) and there were significant differences (t =5.796,t =6.213,both P < 0.05).There was no significant difference of MRT in heart between the disturbution of the combination of the two drugs and that of single medication (t =2.231,t =2.096,both P > 0.05).While there was significantly longer compared with that of single medication and there were significant differences in lung and liver (t =5.976,t =6.270,both P < 0.05).Conclusion When used in combination,the elimination of the drugs is slower,which suggests that the interval and dosage of the drugs should be adjusted to their pharmacokinetic parameters in clinical use to improve effects and lower side effects.
RESUMEN
Postmenopausal osteoporosis is one of the commonest systemic bone metabolism diseases among menopausal women, mainly caused by lowering internal estrogen. Although Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is an effective method in clinical practice for years, it shows side-effect in increasing gynecological carcinoma. It has already been proved by clinical tests that multiple traditional Chinese medicine formulas and their monomer ingredients and phytoestrogen-like active constituents contained in traditional Chinese medicines are effective on treating osteoporosis with relatively less side-effects comparing with HRT. They show protective and therapeutic effects by acting on estrogen receptors of targeted tissues and targeted cells and then affecting expressions of bone metabolism-related regulatory proteins and factors in downstream signal conduct paths. Recent studies on estrogen related receptor (ERR) provide new possibilities and pathways for mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine and their active constituents in osteoporosis.

The bioactive principles contained in blueberries (Vaccinium) are various kind of anthocyanins (anthocyanidins, or phenolic aglycone, conjugated with sugar), chlorogenic acid, flavonids, alpha-linolenic acid, pterostilbene, resveratrol, and vitamins. After oral administration, anthocyanins can pass through blood-brain barrier and thus appear in various organs and brain. Improve visual function by increasing rhodopsin regeneration and ocular health is the earliest reported bioactivities of anthocyanin. Recent studies demonstrated the benefit of blueberries to prevent the age-related chronic diseases such as cancer, diabeties, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, neurodegeneration, obesity, and osteoporosis through its apoptosis, antioxidant, antiinflammation, and antiangiogenesis effects. Blueberries can eradicate microorganisms for the prevention of symptomatic urinary tract infections in women. Thus, blueberries are recognized as one of the most nutritious foods and cultivated worldwide. However, how to prolong the shelving time of fresh fruit, well utilize the leaf and stem to isolate the bioactive chemicals, improve quality consistency of juicy and dry products, all should be further concerned.

The proliferation rate of MCF7 cells influenced by Jiaoai tang and Shenqi Jiaoai tang was determined by MIT assay. PS2, ERalpha and ERbeta mRNA expression was quantified by Real-time PCR assay. Estrogen receptor antagonist ICI182, 780 was employed as a tool.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Administration of Jiaoai tang and Shenqi Jiaoai tang at high dose significantly increased uterus rate in mice (P < 0. 05). The pharmacological serum from two high-dosage groups of Chinese herbal medicine decoction significantly enhanced proliferation rate of MCF7 cells (P < 0.05 or 0.01), while their effects were blocked by ICI182, 780 (P < 0.05 or 0.01). The pharmacological serum could cause elevation of pS2 level (P < 0.01) which would be obviously inhibited by ICI182, 780 (P < 0.01). ERalpha and ERbeta mRNA levels were also elevated significantly (P < 0.05 and P < 0.01 respectively).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Jiaoai tang and Shenqi Jiaoai tang have phytoestrogenic effects, which were attained via ER pathway. They can also increase the mRNA levels of estrogen receptor subtypes, especially ERbeta.</p>
