RESUMO
Sustained release and non-parental formulations of peptides and protein drugs are highly desirable because of enhanced therapeutic effects as well as improved patient compliance. This is especially true for small peptides such as thymopentin (TP5). To this end, implantable sandwich poly (hydroxybutyrate--hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBHHx) films were designed to prolong release time and to inhibit burst release phenomenon of TP5 by a simple volatilization method. release studies revealed that sandwich films had nearly no burst release. release time of sandwich films was prolonged to 42 days. Pharmacodynamic evaluation demonstrated that TP5 sandwich films significantly increased survival rates in a rat immunosuppressive model and normalized CD4/CD8 values. These results suggest that TP5 released from sandwich films can attenuate cyclophosphamide's immunosuppressive activity, and possibly achieve results comparable to daily TP5 injection therapy. Thus, sandwich PHBHHx films show excellent potential as a sustained, burst-free release system for small molecular weight, hydrophilic peptide drugs.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate clinical interns' mastery and understanding status of medical core systems in order to provide reference for formulating training programs. Methods The questionnaires including medical core systems trained and self-assessment and test paper were de-signed. Then survey was carried out among 188 clinical interns of Grade 2009 of Zunyi Medical Col-lege at the end of training. All data were obtained, collected and analyzed with Excel and a SPSS 17.0. The result was described with percentage. Results ①78/41.34% and 117/62.33% clinical interns accepted training of medical core systems respectively before or during clinic training. 74/39.43%hos-pitals or 70/37.30% departments were systematically trained by medical core systems and the propor-tion of teachers who systematically or non-systematically explained medical core systems for clinical interns was 42/22.29%and 61/32.37%respectively.②The clinical interns who mastered first diagnosis responsibility systems, patient communication system, and systems of discussing difficult cases were 178/94.68%, 178/90.43%or 168/89.36%. The clinical interns who mastered rescue systems in critically ill patients, surgical classification management systems and audit system in clinical blood transfusion were 84/44.68%, 67/35.64%or 34/18.28%respectively.③8/6.90%interns fully grasped the core system of the medical situation. 165/87.71% and 165/83.43% clinical interns believed medical core systems should be mastered and 157 interns (83.43%) thought that mastering medical core system can help them better adapt to clinical medical work. Conclusion Systematic training of medical core system should be enhanced for clinical interns and mastering medical core systems is better for their future.
RESUMO
[Objective]To discuss professor Wu Kaopan’s academic thoughts by studying plain questions(Su Wen), Miraculous Pivot(Ling Shu), Medical Prob-lems. [Methods]Through the study on Wu’s papers and works of plain questions(Su Wen), Miraculous Pivot, using literature research method, sort and study these papers and works. [Results]This paper introduces Wu’s study on classics, using methods not only col ating, exegetics, annotation and modern translation, but also classification, analysis and exposition, the result is theoretical essence and academic ideas in such works are explored. [Conclusion]For researchers, the study of classics of Chinese medicine requires basic theory of it, what’s more, broad and profound literature knowledge is more important.
RESUMO
This study was aimed to explore the nonlinear relationship between syndromes and prescriptions by using the artificial neural network (ANN) algorithm. The clauses composed of syndromes and prescriptions in Shanghan Lun (Treatise on Cold Damage and Miscellaneous Diseases) were sorted out. A total of 245 clauses were trained with ANN to establish the knowledge base model of syndromes and prescriptions. After that, 100 clauses were tested. And then, the symptoms of Gui-Zhi-Tang (GZT) syndrome, Ma-Huang-Tang (MHT) syndrome, Xiao-Chai-Hu-Tang (XCHT) syndrome and Bai-Hu-Tang (BHT) syndrome were input into the model to predict the Chinese herbs. The results showed that the test accuracy of the model was 79%. For the herbs to GZT and MHT syndrome, the test error was less than 0.1. For the main herbs to XCHT and BHT syndrome, the test error was less than 0.1. While for other herbs, the test error was less than 0.3. It was concluded that the ANN algorithm can simulate the nonlinear relationship between syndromes and prescriptions, which can be applied to study the syndrome differentiation, in order to contribute to the syndromes and prescriptions standardization and the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) information.
