[Herbal decoction of qingwen baidu yin in treating endotoxic fever in rabbits].

Qingwen Baidu Yin (QBY) has good curative effects on the endotoxic fever of rabbits induced by injecting endotoxin of E. Coli. The test group was given QBY orally, while the control group was given NS orally instead. Result showed QBY could: (1) Markedly inhibit the fever, it was effective in reducing febrile curve. delta T and TRI5 of the test group were smaller (P < 0.001). (2) Ameliorate the leukocytopenia and leukocytosis, and improve thrombocytopenia. (3) Antagonize hyperviscosity syndrome and had the actions of depolymerization and dilution. (4) In test group, the increased cAMP content in plasma was reduced, and the decreased cGMP content raised, the ratio of cAMP and cGMP was nearly normal. All these provided the clue in elucidating the essence of "Excessive Yang causes Heat" and "Predominance of Yang leads to disorder of Yin". (5) Pathomorphological examination showed that QBY had the functions of protecting the internal organs and reducing the organic damage induced by endotoxing in rabbits.

The prevalence of chromosome diseases in the general population of Sichuan, China.

Chromosome abnormalities with recognizable clinical manifestations including mental retardation, primary infertility or primary amenorrhea of unknown etiology, abnormal sex differentiation and abnormal sex development were surveyed in the general population of Sichuan. The results showed that the prevalence of chromosome diseases in Sichuan was 31.5 per 100,000 of the general population with almost equal frequencies for autosomal chromosome and sex chromosome diseases. The most frequent autosomal chromosome disease was Down syndrome. The prevalence was 14.2 per 100,000 for the total population, and there should therefore be 154,000 cases of Down syndrome in the whole of China with its population of 1,100 million people. The most frequent sex chromosome diseases were Turner syndrome and Klinefelter syndrome. The prevalences were 14.3 and 14.1 per 100,000 for females and males, respectively. The majority of autosomal chromosome diseases clustered in the younger age groups, while the highest detection rate of sex chromosome diseases was found in the age group of 25-35, and thereafter it decreased with age. The age distribution of the cases indicates that both autosomal and sex chromosome diseases reduce the lifespan of patients.

Correlation of clinical embolic events with coagulability in a patient with a total artificial heart.

A 46-year-old female patient was supported for 185 days with a total artificial heart, underwent successful transplantation, and survived for over 1 year with no clinical residual findings suggestive of embolic events. Daily observation, analysis of a large battery of coagulation tests, and eight serial computed tomographic scans suggest that she had 12 embolic events while receiving mechanical support. Furthermore, it appears that the events were associated temporally with several mild infections and that coagulation was stimulated several days to 1 week before we detected the events.
