    Abstract The application of Chinese materia medica (CMM) in clinical diseases is the embodiment and continuation of the property theory of CMM (PTCMM). However, due to a lack of precise quantitative description methods, it is difficult to systematically analyze the property of CMM (PCMM) and clinical effect features at the micro molecular level. The therapeutic drugs and targets were obtained from the Drugbank database. The molecular descriptors of these drugs were calculated based on Dragon software. Drug–effect relationships that integrated the molecular descriptors and effect descriptors were plotted as grayscale images. These images were used to train the LeNet-5 model and the AlexNet model. The best-performing model was used to predict the effect features of the CMM compounds. Finally, the effect features of the PCMM combinations were calculated based on the support vector machine recursive feature elimination algorithm. The AlexNet model showed a superior prediction performance. The results showed that its accuracy, precision, sensitivity, F-measure, and Matthews correlation coefficient on the training set were 0.940, 0.936, 0.945, 0.940, and 0.880, respectively, and those of the test set were 0.909, 0.901, 0.920, 0.910, and 0.819, respectively. A total of 399 compounds in the 42 CMMs for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis were predicted by this model. The key effect features of the Han-Ku-Gan combination were anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, anti-atherosclerosis, anti-Parkinson, hypoglycemic, and anti-coagulant properties, as well as excitation of uterine smooth muscle. The key effect features of the Wen-Xin-Gan combination were anti-inflammatory, anti-atherosclerosis, anti-hypertensive, anti-coagulant, anti-tumor, and anti-cardiac insufficiency effects, as well as enhanced immunity, sedation and hypnosis, and analgesia. This study provides a new method for the further exploration of the relationship between the PCMM and clinical effect features.

    Abstract: ... development is important. Wen-Xin Decoction (WXD) has been shown to relieve ...

    Abstract Background: Nitric oxide (NO) is the most powerful vasodilator that inhibits leukocyte adhesion, platelet aggregation, and vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. However, excessive NO can cause lipid peroxidation and direct endothelial cell damage. Therefore, investigation of the role of NO in artherosclerosis development is important. Wen-Xin Decoction (WXD) has been shown to relieve myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury and prevent leukocyte adhesion and invasion; in addition, it can accelerate angiogenesis and prevent platelet activation and aggregation. In this study, we focused on the NO pathway to further clarify the protective effects of WXD on the vascular endothelium in rat models of artherosclerosis.
    Methods: Wistar rats were randomly divided into a normal group (n = 10) and a model group (n = 75). Rat models of atherosclerosis were generated by intraperitoneal vitamin D3 (3 months) injections and administration of a high-fat diet (3 months with vitamin D3 and 2 months alone). The model rats were randomly divided into five groups (n = 15 each): model (saline), atorvastatin (4.8 mg/kg/d atorvastatin), high-dose WXD (9 g/kg/d), medium-dose WXD (4.5 g/kg/d), and low-dose WXD (2.25 g/kg/d) groups. Each group received continuous drug or saline administration (suspended liquid gavage) for 30 days, following which all animals were sacrificed. The ultrastructure and histopathological changes of vascular endothelial cells and the expression of PI3K/AKT/eNOS and iNOS in the thoracic aorta tissue were analyzed.
    Results: WXD increased NO levels, modulated the NO/ET-1 ratio, and promoted repair of the injured vascular endothelium in a dose-dependent manner. At a high dose, WXD regulated the NO/ET-1 ratio as effectively as atorvastatin; furthermore, it increased NO levels within the physiological range to prevent endothelial damage caused by excessive NO expression. Real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot analysis showed that WXD significantly upregulated the mRNA and protein expressions of PI3K, AKT, and eNOS mRNA and significantly increased AKT and eNOS phosphorylation.
    Conclusions: Our results suggest that WXD protects and maintains the integrity of the vascular endothelium by activating the PI3K/AKT/eNOS pathway, decreasing iNOS expression, and promoting the release of physiological NO levels.

    Abstract: ... if so, the chief complaints associated with mortality involving civilian transport after the Wen-chuan earthquake ... to the hospital after the Wen-chuan earthquake. Our data suggest that patients with any of these complaints ...

    Abstract Objectives: Previous studies have reported that civilian transport is a mortality risk factor in low-resource communities. Few studies have analyzed the chief complaints associated with mortality involving civilian transport after an earthquake.Therefore, the present study was conducted to determine whether mortality resulting from medical professional transport differs from that involving civilian transport, and if so, the chief complaints associated with mortality involving civilian transport after the Wen-chuan earthquake.
    Methods: A hospital-based case-control study was conducted. Cases included all victims transported by civilians to West China Hospital from the disaster area (n=473). Controls included all victims transported by medical professionals to West China Hospital (n=1452). We further analyze six potential chief complaints of death to clarify the specific contributing chief complaints associated with mortality involving civilian transport.
    Results: Civilian transport is associated with significantly greater mortality compared with medical professional transport (Pearson's χ-test: P<0.05). Patients with altered mental status had the greatest risk of death [odds ratio (OR)=4.552, 95% confidence interval (CI)=2.165-9.572], followed by patients with trunk injury (OR=2.517, 95% CI=1.251-5.066), and finally patients with shortness of breath (OR=2.345, 95% CI=1.040-5.288).
    Conclusion: Altered mental status, trunk injury, and shortness of breath were the significant chief complaints associated with mortality involving civilian transport to the hospital after the Wen-chuan earthquake. Our data suggest that patients with any of these complaints should be transported by medical professionals, not civilians, to the nearest hospital for treatment.

    Abstract Wen-Xin-Formula (WXF), a famous traditional prescription, has been widely used to treat myocardial ischemia syndrome for thousands of years. However, the constituents absorbed into blood after oral administration of WXF remain unknown. Here, an integrative ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization/quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS) combined with the MetaboLynx approach was established to investigate the absorbed constituents in rats after oral administration of WXF. A hyphenated electrospray ionization and quadrupole-time-of-flight analyzer was used for the determination of accurate mass of the molecule and fragment ions. With this rapid and automated analysis method, a total of 32 peaks were tentatively characterized in vivo based on MS and MS/MS data and comparison with available databasess, 26 of which were parent components and six metabolites. These components mainly were ginsenosides, paeoniflorin, galloyl glucose, berberis alkaloids, phenolic, phenolic glycosides and unsaturated fatty acids, glucuronide products of original berberis alkaloids. The present study demonstrates that integrative UPLC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS technique and MetaboLynx data processing method were successfully applied for the rapid discovery of potentially bioactive components and metabolites from WXF, and proved that the established method could help to explore the effective substances for further research into WXF.

    Abstract: ... the therapeutic effects of traditional Chinese medicine Wen-Xin-Formula (WXF). Serum biochemical analysis and ...

    Abstract Metabolomics is a new approach based on the systematic study of the full complement of small molecular metabolites in a biological sample. It could map the perturbations of early biochemical changes on diseases and hence provides an opportunity to develop predictive biomarkers that can result in earlier intervention and possess valuable insights into the mechanisms of diseases. Given the poor diagnosis of myocardial ischemia syndrome (heart-qi deficiency, HQD), biomarkers of great significance are urgently needed. Fortunately, metabolomics may offer the possibility of identifying marker metabolites and pathways activated in HQD. This paper was designed to explore globally metabolomics characters of the HQD and the therapeutic effects of traditional Chinese medicine Wen-Xin-Formula (WXF). Serum biochemical analysis and histopathological examinations were simultaneously performed. Global metabolic profiling with UHPLC/MS (ultra high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry), multivariate analysis and database searching were performed to discover differentiating metabolites. Seventeen biomarkers were identified and pathway analysis tools suggest that the glycolysis or gluconeogenesis metabolism, biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids metabolism, fatty acid biosynthesis and purine metabolism networks were acutely perturbed by HQD. Of note, WXF has potential pharmacological effect through regulating multiple perturbed pathways to normal state, correlates well to the assessment of biochemistry and histopathological assay. Overall, this study successfully demonstrated that the power of metabolomics in unraveling protective effects of WXF and these findings may help better understand the mechanisms of disease, and the underlying pathophysiologic processes.
