The Rotating Automatic Drug Delivery Machine is designed to deliver aqueous drugs in hospital pharmacy.It consists of two main parts-mechanical parts and controlling circuit.In the machine the drug tray is rotated in a seperate layer,and its spinning,position fixing and tray stopping is run by one step motor.The microcomputer (MCS-51) used in the controlling cir- cuit makes it easy to simplify the hardware and change iits controlling ways. This machine use first used in our hospital and it has been proved successfal.

A simple and sensitive high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection (HPLC–FD) has been developed for simultaneous quantification of doxorubicin (DOX) and its dipeptide conjugate prodrug (PDOX) in mice plasma. The chromatographic separation was carried out on an Amethyst C18–H column with gradient mobile phase of 0.1%formic acid and 0.1%formic acid in acetonitrile at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The excitation and emission wavelengths were set at 490 and 550 nm, respectively. The method was comprehensively validated. The limits of detection were low up to 5.0 ng/mL for DOX and 25.0 ng/mL for PDOX. And the limits of quantification were low up to 12.5 ng/mL for DOX and 50 ng/mL for PDOX, which were lower than those for most of the current methods. The calibration curves showed good linearity (R2 4 0.999) over the concentration ranges. The extraction recoveries ranged from 84.0%to 88.2% for DOX and from 85.4% to 89.2% for PDOX. Satisfactory intra-day and inter-day precisions were achieved with RSDs less than 9.1%. The results show that the developed HPLC–FD method is accurate, reliable and will be helpful for preclinical pharmacokinetic study of DOX and PDOX.

Objective To investigate the application and needs' survey of mobile App health software in the patients with respiratory chronic disease. To make mobile App health software development more targeted and practical in the near future. To provide the foundation for continuous nursing service. Methods A survey research method was adopted in which self-designed questionnaires were administered to 163 patients with respiratory chronic disease from respiratory ward and outpatient clinic. Results Totally 119(73.0%) patients used smartphone, the mean score of experience in using mobile phones was (32.4 ± 14.1), which was in the medium range. There were 80 patients had ever installed and used this kind of App. The frequency of use of mobile App health software was Breathing Exercises App, Healthy Exercise App, Healthy Diet App and Medicine Remind App. The major reason for using of these App was disease prevention, self health care, disease and health monitoring and rehabilitation exercises. There were 120 patients would like to install App health software specific to respiratory chronic disease. They hope the characters of these App were simple operated, practical and without product placement. These App health software should include following function:timely feedback and guidance, providing practical method and help to register. Conclusion Most patients with respiratory chronic disease had the hardware basis and experience basis of using mobile App health software. More targeted and practical mobile App health software for the patients with respiratory chronic diseases should be developed to provide the foundation for continuous nursing service and patient′s self-management.

The gut-brain axis (GBA) is a nerve-endocrine mediated bidirectional communication system between the gut and brain, which links the cognition and emotion in brain to peripheral intestinal function. In recent years, many researches have showed that colonized intestinal microbiota plays an important role in the communication between gut and brain. On one hand, microbiota can influence the development and function of brain via GBA. On the other hand, brain can also change the composition of gut microbiota. These findings gradually become a novel medical research highlight, i.e. the microbiota-gut-brain axis. This paper reviews the interaction between gut microbiota and brain via GBA in order to provide supports for studying functions of gastrointestinal tract and brain, as well as the treatment of related diseases.

Following the blood pressure, pulse, breathing and body temperature, pain was identified as the fifth vital signs.Postoperative pain of the spine and spinal cord surgery was a neuropathic pain, it was severe and may affect multiple systems of the patients.Therefore, postoperative analgesia of spine and spinal cord surgery is very important.

Objective To facilitate standing and walking after rehabilitation training by designing and using individualized ischial weight bearing orthosis for patients with various conditions of the lower limbs. Methods An orthosis with ischial support was ordered and tailored according to the condition of the patient's affected lower limb. Adaptive standing and walking training were administered daily. The functional recovery after the assembly of the orthosis was observed. Results The patients' standing and walking ability improved significantly after the training with the ischial weight bearing orthosis. The standing time was significantly longer than without the orthosis, and the walking distance was notably increased. Conclusion An ischial weight bearing orthosis has a significant effect on the recovery of standing and walking capability.

In order to overcome the shortcomings of traditional X-ray inspection taking passive protection mode, this paper combines the automatic control technology, puts forward a kind of active protection X-ray equipment. The device of automatic detection of patients receiving X-ray irradiation part, intelligent adjustment in patients and shooting device between automatic tracking radiation protection device height. The device has the advantages of automatic adjustment, anti-radiation device, reduce the height of non-irradiated area X-ray radiation and improve the work efficiency. Testing by the professional organization, the device can decrease more than 90% of X-ray dose for patients with non-irradiated area.

To evaluate multi-slice computer tomography (MSCT) in mediastinal lymph node metastasis of T1 and T2 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods:A total of 32 patients with T1 and T2 NSCLC from February 2004 to October 2012 were selected. Preoperative MSCT assessment of mediastinal lymph nodes was performed on basis of the pathological results. Results:Lymph nodes with diameters of≥10 mm were evaluated, and the sensitivity and specificity of the MSCT mediastinal lymph node me-tastases were 82.4%and 92.4%, respectively. Lymph node size, primary tumor location, and visceral pleural invasion showed statistical significance in forecasting mediastinal lymph node metastases (P<0.05). Conclusion:MSCT can be used for the effective evaluation of mediastinal lymph node metastasis, lymph node size, and position of primary tumor. and visceral pleural invasion of the tumor had a higher risk of mediastinal lymph node metastasis.

ObjectiveTo observe the relationship between neuronal function score and pathological changes of fluid percussion brain injury in rats and to explore their clinical significances.MethodsThe fluid percussion models of brain injury in rats were established by using the improved device with three kinds impact pressure such as 0.1 MPa,0.2 MPa,0.3 MPa,and vital signs and mortality rate were observed.Behavior changes,brain water content,histological changes were observed by Shapira and Wahld method,dry-wet measure,light microscopy at 1 h,6 h,12 h,24 h,3 d and 7 d after operation respectively.ResultsThe animals accepted impact pressure of 0.1 MPa showed temporary hypopnea with mortality rate of 2.08％,those of 0.2 MPa suffered apnoea of ( 10.88 ±2.69 ) s with mortality rate of 4.17％ and those of 0.3 MPa suffered apnoea of ( 20.60 ± 3.02 ) s with mortality rate of 16.67％.As the impact pressure increased,nervous function score minimumly decreased to (7.17 ±0.75) of 0.1 MPa group,(4.83 ± 0.75 ) of 0.2 MPa group and (2.67 ± 0.52) of 0.3 MPa group respectively,and recovered more slowly.Brain water content maximumly reached to (81.12 ± 0.03 )％,(82.74 ± 1.11 )％ and (83.89± 0.04) ％ at time point of 24 h respectively.The brain injury was involved in the outer layer of cerebral cortex,hippocampal formation and brain stem respectively and histological observation verified above findings.Conclusion Light,moderate and heavy fluid percussion brain injury in rats have more and more low nervous function scores,which have positive relationship with more and more serious pathological changes.
