OBJECTIVE:To establish an HPLC method for the determination of cefepime in human plasma.METHODS:The separation of sample was carried on a Diamonsil C18 column with the mobile phase consisted of 20 mmol?L-1 ammonium acetate(which was adjusted to pH=5.00 by acetic acid)-acetonitrile(90∶10) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL?min-1.The detection wavelength was set at 254 nm;the sample size was 20 ?L,and the column temperature was set at room temperature.RESULTS:The linear range of cefepime was 0.2～50.0 ?g?mL-1(r=0.999 6),with the lower limit of quantitation at 0.2 ?g?mL-1.The average methodological recovery was 99.16%(RSD=1.29%) and the average extraction recovery was 85.43%(RSD=2.37%).The inter-day RSD and intra-day RSD were all less than 10%.CONCLUSION:The method was simple,sensitive,rapid and accurate and can be used for the pharmacokinetic and bioavailability study of Cefepime.

Objective To evaluate the feasible hand hygiene intervention methods to improve health care workers’ (HCWs)hand hygiene compliance,and reduce healthcare-associated infection(HAI)rate.Methods The surgical department in a hospital was selected as intervention department,intervention department was conducted baseline investigation in January-February 2013,multimodel intervention measures were conducted between March 2013 and April 2014,post-intervention survey was performed by the same method as baseline survey in May-June 2014,hand hygiene of HCWs as well as occurrence of HAI between before and after intervention was compared respectively. Results After intervention,HCWs’hand hygiene compliance before and after patient contact both enhanced signifi-cantly;HCWs’hand hygiene compliance rate increased from 53.32% before intervention to 69.27% after interven-tion,the difference was significant(χ2= 26.19,P<0.001 ). HCWs’hand hygiene modes before patient contact:liquid soap plus running water before intervention(67.02% ),alcohol-based hand rub after intervention (61 .08% );HCWs’hand hygiene modes after patient contact :both liquid soap plus running water before and after intervention (86.40% and 70.41% respectively). Before intervention,hand dry method of HCWs before and after patient con-tact was by wiping with uniforms,after intervention was by wiping with paper towel. HAI in intervention depart-ment decreased from 3.08% before intervention to 2.00% after intervention,the difference was significant(χ2=7.76,P= 0.005).Conclusion Multimodel intervention measures in intervention department can effectively improve HCWs’hand hygiene compliance rate.

OBJECTIVE To observe the efficiency of new low-temperature sterilization method using(hydrogen) peroxide gas plasma sterilization system.METHODS The hydrogen peroxide gas plasma sterilization system of STERRAD 100S was monitored for 157 sterilization cycles.RESULTS From them 134 cycles were(completed,) 23 cycles were(cancelled.) All cycles were completed with negative results either in biological culture or in chemical indicators.CONCLUSIONS The STERRAD Sterilization System involves the combined use of hydrogen peroxide and low-temperature gas plasma to sterilize most medical devices and materials rapidly and safely without leaving any toxic residues.As nursing develops,the new sterilization system is efficient and convenient.However,it also has own limitations.Therefore,it is desirable to fully understand the normal procedure of system according to the operation instruction.

Objective To observe the effect of PKB gene silencing on the growth of gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 in vitro.Methods Gene transfection technique was used to transfect AKt2 siRNA into gastric cancer cells.Akt2 expression was detected by RNAi technique,Akt2 protein level was detected by Western blot,and the change of cell cycle distribution and apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells were detected by flow-cytometry,SGC-7901 proliferation was measured by MTT method.Results After SGC-7901 cells transfected with Akt2 siRNA,the expression of protein level decreased obviously(P

Objective:Spectrophotometer is a device to be verified obligatory in hospital. This article introduced some techniques to avoid ordinary mistakes in measurement. Methods:We introduced principle and verification regulation of spectrophotometer. Such methods as parameter configuration, proper maintenance can reduce our mistakes. Results: This article analyzed some common problems in measurement and also offered solutions. Conclusion: In the measurements of spectrophotometers, because the operators have less spectrophotometer operation experience, they often get inaccurate data which lead to an error. Conclusion: To avoid these mistakes, strictly regulate operations in spectrophotometer’s verification and proper routine maintenance are necessary.

BACKGROUND: Chondron is a basic microanatomical unit of articular cartilage. lncreasing evidence suggests that the pericellular matrix (PCM) is a distinct functional compartment in articular cartilage, influencing the metabolic, micromechanical environment, and degeneration of chondrocytes. But the precise functions and action mechanism need further investigation.OBJECTIVE: To review the literature pertinent to the morphology, function, isolation of the chondron in articular cartilage, and its degenerative events during the progression of osteoarthritis (OA).METHODS: This review summarized the articles published in the PubMed database before July 2009. In addition, recent data and figure of our laboratory on the morphology and biomechanics of chondron and chondrocyte were supplemented. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The PCM is primarily characterized by the presence of type Ⅵ collagen, and these components are widespread in the expansive extracellular matrix (ECM) in newborns, while in mature the components are mainly localized to a narrow pericellular zone. The three-dimensional morphology of chondron has been recently quantified in situ with fluorescence confocal microscopy, and the mechanical properties of the isolated individual chondrons and their PCM are measured using the micropipette technique and atomic force microscopy. More studies have shown that the presence of the PCM in chondrons has a profound influence on chondrocyte gene expression. At the same time, structural, histochemical and biomechanical studies indicate the chondron and their PCM may undergo degenerative processes with osteoarthritis, similar to those occurring in the ECM, Although the precise function of the PCM is unknown, increasing evidence in vivo or in vitro suggests that the PCM is a basic microanatomical unit in articular cartilage, influencing the metabolic and micromechanical environment of chondrocytes.Department of Orthopedics, the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University, Shanxi Key Laboratory of Bone and Soft Tissue Injury Repair,Taiyuan 030001,Shanxi Province,China

Objective]Analysis about how Dai Sigong expounded and treated diarrhea. [Methods]Look up relevant literature,list Dai Sigong ’s expositions about diarrhea’ pathogenesis and treatments, and summarize how Dai Sigong treated diarrhea. [Results] Dai Sigong generalized some methods about diarrhea treatment, such“diaphoresis”“purgative method”“emesis method”“tonifying method”“harmonyzing method”“invigorating spleen for diuresis”“invigorating qi for ascending”“eliminating”dampness”“clearing interior heat”and so on.[Conclusion]Depanding on predecessors’ discourse analysis, Dai Sigong inherited Zhu Danxi’s academic thought, summariied diarrhea’ pathogenesis and treatments, made a breakthrough to a thought that“It’s noneffective not using diuresis to eliminate dampness”and put forword that“there are many ways to cure diarrhea by eliminating dampness”. It provided more means to therapy diarrhea for descendants and had great meanings to consult.
