OBJECTIVE:To establish an RP-HPLC method for the determination of Berberine hydrochloride in Keyang-min tincture.METHODS:The sample separation was performed on Agilent Eclipse XDB C18(250 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m),and the mobile phase was acetonitrile-5 mmol?L-1 perfluorooctane sulfonate(32∶68) at flow rate of 1 mL?min-1.The detection wavelength was 346 nm and the temperature of column was 35 ℃.RESULTS:The linear range of Berberine hydrochloride was 0.059 2～0.888 3 ?g(r=0.999 9).The average recovery rate was 99.71%(RSD=1.18%,n=6).CONCLUSION:The met-hod is sensitive,accurate,and reproducible,and suitable for the determination of Berberine hydrochloride in Keyangmin tincture.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of Hordeum vulgare on hormone level in male mice.METHODS:Male mature mice(5～6 months) were treated with Hordeum vulgare decoction 1 mL(equivalent to 0.5 g?mL-1 crude drug) bid for 14 consecutive days.Follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH),luteinizing hormone(LH),estradiol(E2) and testosterone(T) in blood were monitored.RESULTS:In Hordeum vulgare group compared normal control,serum E2 increased significantly,serum level of testosterone decreased significantly,while FSH and LH levels remained stable.CONCLUSION:Hordeum vulgare can influence the hormone level in male mice by influencing the gonad axis of the mice.

Purpose To study the spiral CT (SCT) appearances of pleural plaques,to improve the accuracy of diagnosis and differential diagnosis,and to evaluate clinic application.Materials and Methods The SCT appearances in 42 cases with pleural plaques were analysed retrospectively,which closed met with asbestos dust.Results SCT showed 407 pleural plaques in 42 cases,of which there were hyline / uncalcified pleural plaques (n=250),calcified pleural plaques(n= 36),mixed pleural plaques(n=121);unilateral pleural plaques (n=10),bilateral pleural plaques (n=32);single pleural plaque in 5 cases,multiple pleural plaques in 37 cases.The largest pleural plaque was 4.2cm×1.2cm.There were a lot of shapes of the pleural plaques.Various shapes of calcifications could be showed in the calcified or mixed type pleural plaques.The pleural plaques distributed in the middle-inferior part,anterior / posterior-lateral chest wall,underlying the ribs in 28 cases (66.6 %),both bilateral domes of diaphragm in 10 cases and mediastinal pericardium in 4 cases.The pleural plaques associated with pulmonary intertitial fibrosis in 4 cases.No cases in the apices / costophrenic angles.No enhancement of pleural plaques in 6 cases which were administrated contrast scan.Conclusion SCT can clearly show the distribution,extention,shape,size,density and relation to adjacent tissues of the pleural plaques,and with asbestos exposure history,can make a diagnosis and differential diagnosis from other pleural thickened lesions.SCT is the best choice of imaging methods for asbestosis and pleural plaque.

Literatures available was reviewed on the thrombosis and mechanism of new antithrombotic agents.The pathophysiology of the thrombosis involves dysfunction of endothelium and cell adhesion.The new antithrombotic drugs include factor Ⅹa inhibitors, GPⅡb/Ⅲa receptor blocking agents and the drugs modulating the function of endothelium.

The broad application of phacoemulsification and multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL)implantation have been raising concern in postoperative visual outcomes due to the innate shortage of MIOL in design,which will probably results in the decline contrast sensitivity or/and some abnormal optical symptoms following the surgery.Optimizing visual outcomes of MIOL implantation and controlling adverse effects has been become the issue of focus for ophthalmologists,which is being discussed in details,e.g.patient selection,preparation of surgery,surgical techniques,etc.,in the following monograph.

Objective To understand the plasma Platelet Microparticiles(PMPs)level and its clinical significance in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods Venous blood samples were obtained from 96 of T2DM patients and 30 of non-diabetic control subjects.PMPs,CD61P positive on platelets,were quantified by flow cytometry.Meanwhile,plasma levels of PLT,FPG,TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C and LP(a)were detected,as well as the levels of MA and TRF from urine samples.Results PMPs counts were significantly greater in 2 year or up 2 year groups than in controls.PMPs count was associated with levels of urine MA and TRF,but not related with other indexes.Conclusion PMPs may be a marker of microvascular disease in Type 2 diabetes.

OBJECTIVE:To analysis the application status of antibiotics in perioperative patients of our hospital.METHO-DS:The use of antibiotics in 300 perioperative patients(100 with type Ⅰ incisions and 200 with type Ⅱ incisions)from June to November in 2006 were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS:In the patients with type Ⅰ incisions,Cephalosporins took the lead on the list of DDDs,followed by Penicillin,Nitroimidazole,FQNS,and Aminoglycosides.CONCLUSION:Physicians should have an increased awareness to the rational prophylactic use of antibiotics in perioperative patients to lower the perioperative infection rate of incisions.
