Eignt compounds were isolated from the roots of Alinarubella Hance. They were identified as quinovic acid(Ⅰ), 3-oxo-urs-12-ene-27, 28-dioic acid (Ⅱ). quinovic acid-3? -O-?-D-glucopyranoside(Ⅲ ), quinovie acid-3?-O-?-L-rhamnopyranoside(Ⅳ). noreugenin (Ⅴ ), 7 -O-?-D-glucosyl- noreugenin(Ⅵ), scopo letin(Ⅶ), daucosterol(Ⅷ), by means of spectral analysis and reactions, Ⅱ, Ⅲ snd Ⅳ are isolated from the genus adina for the first time.

The total fatty acid in adipose tissue and total and free fatty acid in plasma, using tridecanoic (Cl3:0) and heptadecanoic acid (Cl7:0) as the internal standard (IS) respectively, were analysed by GC. In analysing total fatty acid, the esterification rate was 103.53% (IS Cl3:0) and 102.86% (IS C17:0); the recovery of lauric, myristic, stearic and arachidic acid was 101.0-103,3%, 102,1-494.1%, 103,1-104.5% and 100,0-105.0%; the CV of individual fatty acid were within the range of 2.24-8.46%. In analysing free fatty acid, the esterification rate in use of C17: 0 as the IS was 102.99%; the recovery of lauric, myristic, stearic and arachidic acid was 83.5-87.3%, 96.4-99.6%, 94.3-101.9%, and 82.0-105.0% respectively, the CV of individual fatty acid were within the range of 1.41-6.21%. The procedure analysing total fatty acid is especially simple, speedy, and reliable.

Objective To study the value of reverse CT scan in eliminating the respiratory motion artifacts in the thoracic CT of the patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases(COPD).Methods Fourty patients with COPD were randomly selected and underwent chest CT examinations with the technique of GR-Helical including directive and reverse CT scans.The images were blindly evaluated by three experienced doctors.Results In 40 cases,the respiratory motion artifacts were present in 17 cases,among them,70.59%(12/17) artifacts was in lower lung field,and 64.7%(11/17) artifacts occurred in the people over 60 years of age.The rate of artifact was 35% at directive scan,while it was reduced to 7.5% at reverse scan,the image quality was improved at 27.5%.There was statistical significance in eliminating respiratory motion artifacts between two scanning method (P＜0.05).Conclusion Reverse CT scanning can effectively eliminating or reducing the respiratory motion artifacts in lower lung field,it is the best choice of scanning mode in elderly patients with COPD.

Objective To evaluate the effect of hydrogen sulfide on myocardial exogenous apoptotic pathway in a rat model of hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation.Methods Sixty clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 8 weeks,weighing 250-300 g,were divided into 4 groups (n =15 each) using a random number table method:sham operation group (group S),sham operation plus sodium sulphid (NaHS) group (group S+NaHS),hemorrhagic shock group (HS group),and hemorrhagic shock plus sodium sulphid group (group HS+NaHS).Rats only underwent arterial and intravenous puncture in group S.Hemorrhagic shock was induced by withdrawing blood from the femoral artery until mean arterial pressure (MAP) was reduced to 35-40 mmHg within 10 min and maintained for 1.5 h.NaHS 28 μmol/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 10 min before resuscitation in group HS+NaHS.The equal volume of NaHS was administered at the same time in group S+NaHS.Immediately before blood letting and at 0,1.5,2,3,4 and 6 h after blood letting (T1-5),MAP was recorded and blood samples were collected from the femoral vein for determination of serum creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) concentrations by chemical colorimetry.Rats were then sacrificed and hearts were removed for examination of the pathological changes of myocardial tissues (with a light microscope) and for determination of cell apoptosis (by TUNEL),expression of caspase-3 and caspase-8 (by Western blot) and expression of Fas and FasL (by immunohistochemistry).Apoptosis index was calculated.Results Compared with group S,MAP was significantly decreased at T1-5,the serum CK and LDH concentrations at T1-5 and apoptosis index at T5 were increased,and the expression of Fas,FasL,caspase-3 and caspase-8 was up-regulated in group HS (P＜ 0.05).Compared with group HS,MAP was significantly increased at T1-3,the serum CK and LDH concentrations at T3-5 and apoptosis index at T5 were decreased,and the expression of Fas,FasL,caspase-3 and caspase-8 was down-regulated in group HS+NaHS (P＜0.05).The pathological changes of myocardial tissues were significantly attenuated in group HS+NaHS when compared with group HS.Concclusion The mechanism by which hydrogen sulfide attenuates myocardial injury induced by hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation is associated with inhibiting the exogenous apoptotic pathway in rats.
