Objective To develop a rapid and sensitive method for the determination of bisphenol A in drinking water by liquid chromatography-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. Methods Bisphenol A was extracted from the drinking water sample by a SEP-PAK C18 column,eluted with methanol and concentrated with a rotary evaporator. The extract was analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization. Results The calibration curve of bisphenol A was linear in the range of 5 -100 ng/ml,the linear equation was y =6 796.61x -8 655.64 and the correlation coefficients of linear calibration curve was 0.999 2. The limit of detection (S/N=3) and the limit of quantification (S/N=10) of bisphenol A were 0.007 5 ng/ml and 0.025 ng/ml,respectively. The rates of recovery of bisphenol A were from 83.46% to 94.00% and the relative standard deviation was 3.06% -4.60%. Conclusion The method is simple,rapid,accurate and is applicable to the qualitative and quantitative determination of bisphenol A in drinking water.

Objective To analysis the clinical feaures and risk factors of recurrent intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH). Methods Analysis clinical data of 68 recurrent ICH patients and compared with those of patients with first-ever ICH. Results 43 recurrences were seen in 38 patients.The mean interval between 2 episodes was(3.9?2.8)years.The most common type of recurrence was"ganglionic-ganglionic",next was"ganglionic-thalamic",and"ganglionic-lo- bar"seldom.Most recurrences occurred contrala-terally and seldom at the same site as the first episode.In contrast to those with first-ever ICH,patients with recurrent ICH most have a hypertension and course of longer,all with a poor control.Analysis showed that the hypertension course was positively and the age of the first hemorrhage was negatively associated with the recurrence of ICH.Conclusion The risk of recurrence of ICH is relatively high within the first 4 years after the previous hemorrhage.Positively control hypertension to normal level,It will have impartant meaning to prevent occurrence of recurrent ICH.

Objective To observe the effects of early exercise on the expression of synaptophysin pro-tein and Nissl bodies in the hippocampus after hypoxic-ischemic brain damage( HIBD) , and to investigate possi-ble mechanisms. Methods A total of 35 neonatal Wistar rats aged 7 days were randomly divided into a train-ing group of 13, a control group of 11 and a sham-operation group of 11. HIBD was induced in the rats of the training and control groups, while those in the sham-operation group had the left common carotid artery separa-ted, but without ligation. Seven days after successful modeling, the training group began swimming training for 10 min every day lasting for 14 days, while the other groups were not trained. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of synaptophysin in the affected hippocampus of the brain based on the ratio of the gray band val-ues for synaptophysin and beta. Nissl staining was applied to observe the number of Nissl bodies and the morphol-ogy of the neurons in the hippocampus. Results The average expression of synaptophysin in the sinistrocere-bral hippocampus of the rats in the control group was significantly lower than that in the sham-operation group, but significantly higher than that of the training group. The control group had significantly fewer Nissl bodies than the sham-operation group, but significantly more than the training group. Conclusion Early training can in-crease the expression of synaptophysin and the number of Nissl body in the hippocampus after hypoxic-ischemic brain damage.

Objective To explore the risk factors influencing the prognosis of patients with acute poisoning by analysis of clinical data of 356 patients in order to provide the scientific evidence for planning therapeutic strategies in ICU.Methods The clinical data of 356 patients with acute poisoning were collected during the period from January 1,2005 through December 30,2009,and the clinical findings from close observation were filled into the tables of specially designed “ Clinical observation of acute poisoning patients”.Some risk factors of 356 cases with complete clinical data were studied by single-factor analysis and Logistic multiple regression,such as gender,age,mode and cause of poisoning,kind of poison agents,time elapsed from poisoning to admission into the hospital,time elapsed from poisoning to admission into ICU,length of hospital stay,cardiopulmonary resuscitation,mechanical ventilation,APACHE Ⅱ score.Results Three hundred fifty-six patients with complete data were divided into survival group (n =260) and death group (n =96).Univariate analysis showed the length of hospital stay (5.72 ± 4.37) d,APACHE Ⅱ score (10.27 ±7.77),time elapsed from poisoning to admission into ICU (17.16 ± 31.22)h in the survival group,and the length of hospital stay (3.53 ± 5.79) d,APACHE Ⅱ score (18.78 ±8.66),time elapsed from poisoning to admission into the ICU (37.21 ±67.35) h in the death group (P ＜0.05 or P ＜ 0.01).The differences in rates of CPR,mechanical ventilation and kind of poison agents between the two groups were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that the length of hospital stay,APACHE Ⅱ score,rates of cardiopulmonary resuscitation,mechanical ventilation and kind of poison agents were positively correlated with prognosis of patients with acute poisoning (P ＜ 0.05).Model to predict mortality was established:Y =-0.817-0.137X1 +0.140X3 + 2.133X4 + 1.039X5-0.291X6.Conclusions Hospital stay,APACHE Ⅱ score,cardiopulmonary resuscitation,mechanical ventilation and kind of poison agents were independent risk factors for predicting prognosis.APACHE Ⅱ score system and Logistic regression analysis can be used to evaluate the severity and prognosis of patients with acute poisoning.

Objective To study the incidence of osteopenia in patients with initial systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE). Investigate the levels of the vitamin D (VitD) endocrine system in peripheral blood of SLE patients and its relation to bone mineral density (BMD). Analyse the relationship between the estrogen receptor (ER) and BMD and evaluate the role of ER in the pathogenesis osteopenia. Methods Serum levels of 25-OH VitD_3 and 1,25-(OH)_2 VitD_3 were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The gene expression levels of VitD receptor (VDR) and ER were determined by real-time PCR. BMD measurements in the lumbar spine (L1-L4) and left proximal femur (femoral neck) were performed using dual X-ray absorptiometry before treatment. Results The initial SLE patients had significantly lower BMD values, and higher frequency of bone loss at both sites of measurement compared with normal controls (P < 0. 05). The levels of 25-OH VitD_3 and 1,25-(OH)_2 VitD3 were lower in the initial SLE patients than normal controls(P<0.01 both). There is no difference in the levels of 25-OH VitD_3 and 1,25-(OH)_2 VitD_3 between the osteopenia SLE group and the normal BMD SLE group (P > 0. 05, P > 0. 05). There are no correlations between the Vitd and BMD in initial SLE patients (P>0.05 both). The expressions of VDR gene were significantly increased in the initial SLE patients compared with the normal controls(P<0.01). There was no difference in VDR gene expression between osteopenia SLE group and normal BMD SLE group (P>0.05). The VDR gene expression does not correlate with the bone mass (P>0.05). The levels of ER-β gene expression are higher in the initial SLE group than the normal controls (P<0.01).Conclusions The incipient SLE patients may have lower BMD than expected. SLE patients present abnormal VitD endocrine system and higher ER-β mRNA expression than those in normal controls, but these weren't concerned with osteopenia.

Objective ① To investigate the level of the vitamin D endocrine system in peripheral relationships with bone mineral density (BMD) and the disease activity respectively. Methods The level of the 25-hydroxylate vitamin D3 (25OHD3) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)D3] in plasma from 43 SLE patients and 44 normal controls were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene expression was determinied by real-time PCR in peripheral blood. BMD measurements in the lumbar spine (L1-4) and left proximal femur (femoral neck) were performed using dual X-ray absorptiometry before treatment. The relationship between the vitamin D endocrine system and the bone mass were studied. We also discussed the relationship between the vitamin D endocrine system and the disease activity. Results The levels of 25OHD3 and 1,25 (OH)2D3 were lower in the initial SLE patients than normal controls (P<0.01, P<0.01). The expressions of VDR gene were significantly increased in initial SLE compared with normal controls (P<0.01). The initial SLE patients had significantly lower BMD values, and higher frequency of osteopenia (35%) at both sites of measurement compared with matched healthy controls (P<0.01). The initial SLE patients were divided into two groups by BMD, abnormal group and normal group. There were no differences in 25OHD3, 1,25 (OH)D3 and VDR gene expression (P0.05). There was no correlation between the vitamin D endocrine system and BMD in initial SLE patients. There was no correlation between the vitamin D endocrine system and the disease activity either. Conclusion Vitamin D endocrine system may play an important role in SLE, but the level of VDR gene is not correlated with BMD and disease activity.

Objective Tocheck and evaluate on clinical practice teaching files for providing a foundation of improved clinical teaching levels with enhanced establishment of practice teaching files. Methods The practice teaching files of eighteen clinical departments in a military medical university were selected as the subject and were evenly divided into teaching plans and teaching records as well as teach-ing summary three parts and 15 items. Each item had 2 scores in which quantity had one score and quality has another one. Evaluation results were converted into 100 points system. Results Among practice teach-ing files of eighteen clinical departments, 4 scored more than 90, 8 scored between 80 to 89, 3 scored between 70 to 79, 3 scored between 60 to 69. Three advanced departments are obstetrics and gynecology, auxiliary department and emergency department. There were no significant differences in the scores of major surgery and internal medicine. Compared with that of other departments in the hospital, the specialty of hospital had low scores. It showed that most of the clinical practice of the file information was relatively sound with complete records and some departments had missing items or incomplete and non-standard doc-umentation records. Conclusion Qualitative study on practice teaching files can reflect clinical practice teaching quality. And it is meaningful for us to enhance teaching files construction and to improve clinical practice teaching levels.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have demonstrated that total saponins of panax notoginseng can inhibit the ethanol-induced adipogenic differentiation of rabbit bone marrow stromal cells and confirmed that total saponins of panax notoginseng promoted the proliferation and differentiation of rabbit osteoblasts, and improved the osteoprotegerin mRNA relative expression in osteoblasts so as to inhibit receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand mRNA expression.
OBJECTIVE:To observe effects of total saponins of panax notoginseng on the ultrastructure of the rabbit models of alcoholic avascular necrosis of the femoral head.
METHODS:New Zealand rabbit models of alcohol-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head were established by gavage of spirit. Successful rabbit models were separately injected with saline, compound bone peptide and total saponins of panax notoginseng group, 0.1 mL/kg, once a day, for 4 consecutive weeks. The ultrastructure of each group were observed by transmission electron microscope.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSON:Transmission electron microscopy showed that osteocytes after alcoholic avascular necrosis of the femoral head presented mitochondrial swel ing and fuzzy crista structure, and degranulation of polysomes on rough endoplasmic reticulum. Lipid droplets were seen in osteocytes. Compared with saline group, mitochondria swel ing subsided, cristae appeared, the number of polysomes increased on rough endoplasmic reticulum, but the number of lipid droplet decreased in total saponins of panax notoginseng group. Morphological changes in ultrastructure were similar between compound bone peptide group and total saponins of panax notoginseng group. Morphological changes in ultrastructure were more significant in the total saponins of panax notoginseng and compound bone peptide groups compared with saline group (P<0.05). Results verified that total saponins of panax notoginseng could effectively restore ultrastructure of osteocytes of rabbit models of alcoholic avascular necrosis of the femoral head in the early stage.
