RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Fuzi Lizhongwan alleviating the damage of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy （CIPN） mice caused by cisplatin based on mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） signaling pathway. MethodA total of 40 female KM mice were randomized into blank group （distilled water， ig）， model group （distilled water， ig）， Fuzi Lizhongwan group （3.5 g·kg-1， ig）， and aspirin group （0.026 g·kg-1， ig）. Cisplatin （3 mg·kg-1， ip， 5 days） was used to induce CIPN in mice. Administration began while modeling and lasted 12 days. The general conditions and behaviors of mice were observed. After the last administration， samples were collected. Pathological changes of the soles were observed based on hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Biochemical assay was employed to determine the levels of serum superoxide dismutase （SOD）， hydrogen peroxide （H2O2）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， and nitric oxide （NO）， enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） the content of interleukin-6 （IL-6）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， and glutathione peroxidase-3 （GPX-3） in kidney tissue， and Western blotting the expression of extracellular signal-regulated kinase1/2 （ERK1/2）， phosphorylated-ERK1/2 （p-ERK1/2）， p38 MAPK， and phosphorylated-p38 MAPK （p-p38 MAPK） in kidney tissue. ResultCompared with the blank group， model group demonstrated obvious pathological damage on the soles， hyperkeratosis of the epidermis with a basketweave pattern， atrophy of stratum spinosum， reduction of cells， and intracellular edema. Compared with the model group， Fuzi Lizhongwan significantly alleviated the pathological damage of the skin tissue of the soles. The model group showed lower body weight， mechanical pain threshold， thermal pain threshold （P<0.01）， and SOD activity （P<0.05）， higher content of H2O2， MDA， and NO （P<0.01）， and higher expression of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α （P<0.01） than the blank group. Fuzi Lizhongwan group demonstrated higher body weight， mechanical pain threshold， thermal pain threshold （P<0.01）， and SOD activity （P<0.05）， lower content of H2O2， MDA， and NO （P<0.05）， and lower expression of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α （P<0.01） than the model group. The expression of ERK1/2， p-ERK1/2， p38 MAPK， and p-p38 MAPK increased significantly （P<0.01） in the model group compared with that in the blank group， while the expression decreased significantly （P<0.01） in the Fuzi Lizhongwan group compared with that in the model group. ConclusionFuzi Lizhongwan can relieve the neurological injury of cisplatin-induced CIPN mice and increase the pain threshold of mice， possibly by regulating the MAPK signaling pathway and inhibiting inflammatory response and oxidative stress.
RESUMEN
Objective To develop a new algorithm to reconstruct the distribution of acoustic sources of magnetoacoustic tomography with magnetic induction(MAT-MI)in the acoustic inhomogeneous media,which is developed on the basis of generalized finite element method (GFEM) and modified time inversion algorithm. Methods The acoustic and acoustic coupling theory and the basic equations of acoustics were used to study the forward and inverse problems of the acoustic inhomogeneous concentric sphere magneticacoustic coupling model. The solution of acoustic non-uniform media wave equation based on GFEM was proposed.The method solved the problem of acoustically inhomogeneous media sound source reconstruction and conductivity reconstruction.At the same time,the distribution of velocity was reconstructed by rotating the pairs of transducers and the time reversal algorithm. Results The proposed algorithm could accurately reconstruct the acoustic source distribution in acoustic inhomogeneous media,and could obtain the distribution of sound velocity during the reconstruction of sound source and recover the image well. Conclusion The proposed algorithm had its feasibility and effectiveness verified,and gains advantages in MAT-MI reconstruction of acoustic inhomogeneous media.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of different strategy of antithrombotic therapy in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and coronary disease.Methods 224 inpatients and outpatients with AF and coronary disease whose mean follow-up time was 2 years,were divided into warfarin group,warfarin combined with antiplatelet drug(aspirin or clopidogrel) group,antiplatelet drug(aspirin or clopidogrel) group and control group.The thromboembolic event rate and adverse events incidence were observed in different groups.Results The risk of thromboembolic events,particular emerging risk of cerebral infarction in the control group(12.50 ％) was significantly higher than other groups (P＜ 0.05).Thrombotic event rates in warfarin + single joint group(2.78％) was lower than other groups(warfarin group 4.29 ％,single joint group 5.81％),but there was no significant statistical difference.The overall risk of bleeding in the control group (3.13 ％) was significantly lower than other antithrombotic group (P＜0.05).The incidence of skin bruising in single joint group was lower than other antithrombotic groups,the overall bleeding risk,especially gasfrointestinal bleeding in warfarin+ single joint group was significantly higher than other groups (P＜ 0.05).Conclusion Elderly patients with coronary heart disease and atrial fibrillation need antithrombotic therapy to prevent thrombotic events.Using warfarin alone or warfarin combined antiplatelet drug does not lead to serious bleeding events,but generally bleeding risk should be attracted more attention.

RESUMEN
Objective: The optimal simultaneous separation process of three phenylethanoid glycosides (acteoside, isoacteoside, and torenoside B) from Monochasmasavatieri were established using of macrophage resins and dynamic axial column (DAC). Methods: The adsorption/desorption experiments and dynamic separation experiments were performed on eight types of resins (AB-8, D 101, HPD 100, LSA-10, LX-11, LX-17, LX-38, and XDA-6) to find the optimal resin. Then the optimal separation parameters were investigated on the chosen resin. The total phenylethanoid glycosides obtained from the large-scale experiment were further seperated to get acteoside, isoacteoside, and torenoside B, respectively using of DAC system. Results: Among these candidate resins, LX-17 was chosen to further obtain the optimal parameters: The optimal feeding concentration of raw materials was 1.8 g/mL; The optimal adsorption time was 150 min; The optimal gradient elute conditions were ethanol/water (0/100, 4 BV; 15/85, 4 BV; 60/40, 5 BV; 90/10, 2 BV). The large-scale experiments were amplified to 10 folds on the basis of optimal parameters to obtain total phenylethanoid glycosides. Acteoside, isoacteoside, and torenoside B were simultaneously obtained from total phenylethanoidglycosides using DAC system. Conclusion: LX-17 and DAC system can be used for the purification of phenylethanoid glycosides, which will have a goodfuture for the application in industry.

Results The circumstances of unrestrained sexual life, frequent masturbation, anxious psychology, long-time withholding urine, frequent stay up and long-term fixed position of patients in two groups, statistical differences were appeared (P<0.05), which were the dangerous fac-tors to induce CP/CPPS by multivariate Logistic regression analysis on patients with CP/CPPS (P<0.05). Conclusion Healthy living habit, regular and moderate sexual life, positive psychology and suitable self healthy care are the basis to decrease occurrences of CP/CPPS.
RESUMEN
In the ethical reflection on the euthanasia of the badly handicapped newborn, the teleological thoughtway is superior to deontology. The euthanasia of the badly handicapped newborn is moral on half of the newborn themselves in theory from the angle of teleology, at the same time, the deontology often objects to the euthanasia. But all our value analysis demonstrates that, as a specific moral instance, the "euthanasia of the badly handicapped newborn" is out of the valid extension of the deontology logical discursion. Therefore, we should regard the essentiality of the "euthanasia of the badly handicapped newborn" as a necessary hurt from the point of view of teleology
