An analysis on the epidemic characteristics of tuberculosis drug resistance in Zhejiang Province / 预防医学

Objective To monitor the drug resistance of tuberculosis in Zhejiang Province and to provide scientific evidence for the control of drug resistant tuberculosis.Methods Thirty counties in Zhejiang Province were selected as sample during July 1,2013 and June 30 2014,and smear positive cases were selected to be monitored during study period. Results The rate of drug resistance was 30.88%,and the rate of multi drug resistance was 5.02%.The rate of the extensively drug -resistant tuberculosis was 0.32%.Among initial treatment cases,the rate of drug resistance was 29.22%,higher than 2008,and the rate of multi drug resistance was 3.21%.Among retreatment cases,the rate of drug resistance was 45.74%,and the rate of multi drug resistance was 21.28%.All kinds of monitored drugs were found resistance phenomenon.The drug resistant rate of SM was highest (15.28%),and aminoglycosides (2.35%)were relatively low.Conclusion The status of retreatment TB drug resistance suggested that we had reduced acquired TB drug resistance through implementation of DOTS strategy and standard short course chemotherapy treatment in Zhejiang Province. But it is still not optimistic to control TB drug resistance,and the status of initial treatment TB resistant suggested that resistant strains spread had not been effectively controlled in Zhejiang Province.So we should strengthen the early detection of drug resistant among TB patients,and to further improve the standard of conventional TB treatment.

Study on mRNA and protein expressions of organic anion transporting polypeptide (oatp2b1) in rats with high fat diet and overstrain induced Pi deficiency syndrome / 中国中西医结合杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore roles of mRNA and protein expressions of organic anion transporting polypeptide (oatp2b1) of rats with high fat diet and overstrain induced Pi deficiency syndrome in the transporting of damp turbidity.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Totally 24 SD rats were randomly divided into three groups, i.e., the normal group, the overstrain group, and the high fat diet group, 8 in each group. After successful modeling, one piece of tissues such as spleen, kidney, liver, lung, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine was taken from each rat. Rats of the overstrain group were bonded by specially made bondage cylinder, 3 h each time on odd days, and forced to swim in cold water (10 +/- 1) degrees C for 7 min on even days alternatively for twelve weeks. Rats in the model group and the normal group were fed with standard routine granular forage for 12 weeks. Rats in the high fat diet group were fed with high fat forage for twelve weeks. All rats drank and ate freely. The mRNA and protein expressions of oatp2b1 were detected in the seven tissues using RT-PCR and Western blot.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The mRNA expression of oatp2b1 in liver and kidney tissues of rats in the high fat diet group was higher when compared with that of the normal group and the overstrain group (P < 0.01, P < 0.05). The oatp2b1 mRNA expression in the normal group was sequenced from high to low as liver > lung > spleen > larger intestine > small intestine > kidney > stomach. The oatp2b1 mRNA expression in the overstrain group was sequenced from high to low as liver > lung > larger intestine > spleen > kidney > stomach > small intestine. The oatp2b1 mRNA expression in the high fat diet group was sequenced from high to low as liver > lung > spleen > small intestine > kidney > larger intestine > stomach. The oatp2b1 protein expression in the lung tissue was sequenced from high to low as the overstrain group > the normal group > the high fat diet group (P > 0.05). The oatp2b1 protein expression in the spleen tissue was sequenced from high to low as the high fat diet group > the normal group > the overstrain group (P > 0.05). The oatp2b1 protein expression in the kidney tissue was sequenced from high to low as the normal group > the overstrain group > the high fat diet group (P > 0.05). The oatp2b1 protein expression in the liver tissue was sequenced from high to low as the normal group > the high fat diet group > the overstrain group (P > 0.05). Of them, the oatp2b1 protein expressed extremely less in the stomach, large intestine, and small intestine. The oatp2b1 protein expression in the normal group was sequenced from high to low as lung >spleen > liver, kidney > stomach, larger intestine, and small intestine. The oatp2b1 protein expression in the overstrain group was sequenced from high to low as lung > spleen > kidney > liver > stomach, larger intestine, and small intestine. The oatp2b1 protein expression in the high fat diet group was sequenced from high to low as spleen > lung > kidney > liver > stomach, larger intestine, and small intestine. However, there was no statistical significance among the three groups by pair-wise comparison (P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Kidney and liver might play important roles in the transportation and transformation of damp under the state of Pi deficiency syndrome. Oatp2b1 may be one of the material bases involved in the transportation and transformation of damp turbidity. Pi's function of governing transportation and transformation of damp might not only include the functions of the gastrointestinal tract, but also include partial liver and kidney functions.</p>

Organic anion transporting polypeptide (oatp4a1) mRNA and protein expressions in high fat and over-fatigue impairing Pi rats / 中国中西医结合杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) superfamily member 4a1 (oatp4a1) mRNA expression in the Pi deficiency model rats, thus exploring its mechanism for transporting and transforming the dampness.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Six SD rats of SPF grade were used to prepare over-fatigue impairing Pi model. Another 12 SD rats were randomly divided into the blank control group and the high fat diets group, 6 in each. The special binding tube was used for the over-fatigue impairing Pi model group on the odd day, 3 h each time. Then the rats were forced to swim in the cold water (10 degrees C +/- 1 degrees C) for 7 min on the even day, for 2 successive weeks. Rats in the model group and the blank control group were granulated feed for 12 weeks, while rats in the high fat group were fed with high fat diet for 12 weeks. All rats were free to take food and drink water. The mRNA and protein expressions of oatp4al were detected in the Fei, Pi, Gan, Shen, Wei, Xiaochang, and Dachang using Real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (FQ-PCR) and Western blot.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Rats in the model group were idled together with lousy defecate and coarse skin. They ate and drank less, and lost body weight (P<0.05). They were consistent with clinical manifestations of Pi deficiency syndrome, indicating that the over-fatigue impairing Pi animal model was successfully established. Rats in the high fat group started to have poor appetite and languish spirit, move lazily and addict to sleep, have coarse, dark, and colorless hair 9 weeks later, indicating phlegm dampness syndrome. Compared with the blank control group, the average body weight increased in the high fat group at the 9th week (P<0.05). The oatp4a1 mRNA expressed in the Fei, Pi, Gan, Shen, Wei, Xiaochang, and Dachang. There was no statistical difference in the oatp4al mRNA expression among all tissues (P>0.05). The oatp4al mRNA expressions were higher in the Fei and Shen of the high fat group than in the Gan (P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>oatp4al might be one of the basic substances in the transportation and transformation of phlegm dampness. Of them, Fei, Shen, and Dachang might play important roles in the transportation and transformation of phlegm dampness.</p>

Clinical observation on the acupuncture treatment in patients with urinary retention after radical hysterectomy / 中国结合医学杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the acupuncture therapy effect on the urinary retention after radical: hysterectomy. METHODS METHODS: Eighty cases of urinary retention after radical hysterectomy were randomly assigned to: the treatment group and control group according to the random number table method, 40 cases in each group. From the 15th day post operation, the patients in the two groups started to be treated and 7 days as a course with 5 days treatment and 2 days interval. The treatment group applied acupuncture with modalities of common needling on Zusanli (ST36) bilaterally, electroacupuncture on Sanyinjiao (SP6), Shuidao (ST28), and Scalp Reproduction Area bilaterally, moxibustion on Shenque (CV8). The control group applied acupoint injection with vitamin B B12 12, and Sanyinjiao and Zusanli were selected. Take turns on both sides. The courses for the recovery, of bladder function and residual urine volume for those who had voluntary micturition more than 200 mL after the first and second course of treatment were compared between the two groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Within 1 course and 2: courses of treatment, the patients with bladder function recovery in the treatment group were 21 (21/40) and 36 (36/40), and those in the control group were 12 (12/40) and 29 (29/40), both with a significant difference (P<0.05). After the first course and second course, residual urine volume for those who had voluntary micturition more than 200 mL in the treatment group was 91.7 ± 17.5 mL and 93.5 ± 15.5 mL, in the control group 102.4 ± 13.7 mL and 102.5 ± 15.7 mL, both with a significant difference (P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Combination of acupuncture: modalities was better than acupoint injection for the recovery of bladder function in urinary retention after radical hysterectomy. It would shorten the course of treatment and get a better recovery, decrease urinary retention cases of refractoriness, and extending the treatment could raise the healing rate of urinary retention.</p>
