OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for dissolution determination of Erythromycin ethylsuccinate granules.METHODS:Paddle method was adopted and 0.1 mol?L-1 HCl solution was used as dissolution medium at rotation rate of 50 r?min-1.UV spectrophotometry was used to detect at wavelength of 482 nm.Dissolution rate was calculated.RESULTS:The linear range of erythromycin ethylsuccinate were 4～40 mg?L-1(r=0.999 0,n=5)with an average recovery of 99.19%(RSD=0.56%).Dissolution rate of erythromycin ethylsuccinate was more than 80% within 30 min.CONCLUSION:The method is rapid,simple and accurate for the quality control of Erythromycin ethylsuccinate granules.

Objective Study on fetomaternal immuno state and RHD type of a pregnant woman of weak D phenotype.MethodsThrough polymerase chain reaction (PCR)、direct genomic DNA sequencing and flow cytometry.ResultsIn both sequence specific promer (SSP) PCR and the sequencing PCR tests, the sample was detected negative in exons 3 6 of the RHD gene, whereas all other exons (exons 1 2,7 10) were tested positive. And the sequence of detected exons (exons 1 2,7 10) are the same with normal RHD in GenBank (accession no. AJ299020 1 and AJ299026 9). Serologically and genetically, the sample can be designated as D category VI type Ⅲ. Through a duce tube PCR method, the RhD zygosity of this individual was typed CD VI e/cde。In flow cytometry, a few fetal erythrocytes were detected in peripheral blood of the mother. However there were no anti D detected in sera and hemolytic disease of the newborn(HDN) observed at all.ConclusionSevere cases of HDN have occurred in D positive babies born to partial D mother with anti D, although HDN don't take place in this case. We may still consider D VI phenotype individuals as D positive donors and D negative receiptions in our transfusion practice and in clinical anti D allo immune prophylaxis and monitoring.

Objective:To explore the expression of IL-22 in the patients with rheumatoid arthritis,and to define the clinical sig-nificance of IL-22 cells for RA. Methods: A total of 50 RA patients, 15 OA patients and 15 healthy controls were enrolled. The proportion of Th22 cells in peripheral blood and synovial fluid( SF) of RA patients was detected by flow cytometry;the levels of IL-22 in serum and synovial fluid of RA patients were detected by ELISA. The clinical parameters of disease activity were assessed including ESR,RF,CRP,DAS28,anti CCP and the degree of bone erosions determined by X-rays. Pearson correlation analysis,t test and Kruskal-Wallis H test were used for statistical analysis. Results:The proportion of Th22 cells in RA patients was higher than that of OA patients (t=2. 290 ,P=0. 021) and healthy controls(t=2. 524,P=0. 015). IL-22 levels in RA patients were higher than that of OA patients (t=2. 560,P=0. 014) and healthy controls(t=2. 768,P=0. 009). IL-22 in the RF positive group were higher than that of RF negative group(t=2. 322,P=0. 035). IL-22 in the anti-CCP antibody positive group were higher than that of anti-CCP antibody negative group (t=2. 504,P=0. 015). The levels of IL-22 were correlated positively with ESR,RF,DAS28(r=0. 312,0. 314,0. 332,P<0. 05). The levels of IL-22 were increased gradually along with the aggravation of bone erosions. There were statistical significant difference among different X-ray stagings(H=9. 14,χ20.05(3)=7. 81,H> χ20.05(3),P<0. 05). Serum IL-22 levels in the RA patients with joint effusion were higher than that of without(t=2. 587,P=0. 012). The levels of IL-22 in SF were higher than that in serum(t=2. 668,P=0. 011),and had no correlation with the proportion of Th22 cells in SF. Conclusion: The expression of IL-22 in serum and joint effusion of RA patients increase. The level of IL-22 may be useful marker for assessment of disease activity and finding of bone erosions. Therapeutic targeting of IL-22 may be valuable for the intervention of RA.

Objectives To analyze comparatively the adverse reactions of Nedaplatin(NDP)and Cisplatin(DDP)in concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma and summarize the nursing points as well.Methods From March 2012 to March 2013,112 patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma were randomly divided into NDP group and DDP group.Besides intensity modulated radiotherapy for both groups,NDP group were treated with intravenous drop infusion of NDP by 100 mg/m2 and the control group with intravenous drop infusion of DDP by 100 mg/m2 both for three courses of once every three weeks (e.g.day one,day 22 and day 43 during the course).The two groups were compared in terms of therapeutic effects and incidences of adverse reactions.Results The complete remission rates of the NDP group and DDP group were 87.5%and 85.7%,respectively (P>0.05).The incidences of adverse reactions like gastrointestinal reactions and radioactive mucositis in the NDP group were significantly lower than those in the DDP group(P<0.05)and the index of platelet decrease was significantly higher(P<0.05).There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of liver and kidney dysfunction and white blood cells decrease(P>0.05). Conclusions Chemotherapy with NDP combined with radiotherapy for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma has fewer adverse effects and is easy to be accepted by patients so that their quality of life can be improved.In the application of the two kinds of chemotherapy,we should pay attention to the adverse reactions on patients in order to give pertinent care.

Background Mutant C57BL/6 mouse with corneal opacity (B6-Co) appears eye open at birth (EOB) phenotype,which is a good animal model in the study of developmental mechanism of eyelid.Investigating the relationship between serum response factor (SRF) and EOB phenotype can provide theoretical support for the research on the mechanism of innate defects in eyelid development in humans.Objective This study was to assess the dynamic expressions of SRF in eyelid of embryonic B6-Co mouse.Methods Total RNA was extracted from B6 and B6-Co mice eyelid tissue at embryonic day 16.5 (E16.5 d),E17.5 d and E18.5 d.The relative expression levels of SRF mRNA and protein in the eyelid tissue of B6 and B6-Co embryonic mice were assayed by real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot,respectively.In situ expressions of SRF protein in eyelid of B6-Co mice and B6 mice were detected using immunofluorescence technique.The use and care of the animals complied with the Regulation for the Administration of Affair Concerning Experimental Animals of Nantong University.Results The relative expression levels ofSRF mRNA in the eyelids were 0.41±0.06 and 0.24±0.17 in E16.5 d and E17.5 d of B6-Co mice,showing a significant decline in comparison with 1.03 ±0.17 and 1.01 ±0.09 in the B6 mice (P =0.025,0.017).The expression levels of SRF protein in the eyelids of E16.5 d and E17.5 d B6-Co mice were 0.08±0.01 and 0.08± 0.01,which were significantly lower than 0.12 ±0.03 and 0.13 ± 0.02 of B6 mice (P =0.036,0.024).However,there were no significant differences in the expression levels of SRF mRNA and protein in E18.5 d between the B6-Co mice and B6 mice (P =0.387,0.774).Immunofluorescence assay displayed that SRF was expressed in the keratinocytes of eyelids in both mice,but the fluorescence intensity was weaker in the B6-Co mice.Conclusions SRF probably interrupts the developing process of eyelid in early embryo of B6-Co mice.

Objective To investigate the current situation of thyroid disease by analyzing retrospectively the color poppler ultrasonography data of neck discomfort in Heilongjiang Province.Methods A total of 13 020 cases (18-93 years old) of thyroid ultrasound examination data collected from September 2009 to October 2012 at the Department of Ultrasound,Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University,were retrospectively analyzed.According to the sonographic features of thyroid (thyroid morphology,size,echo characteristics,blood flow,nodular location,number,calcification,etc),combined with ultrasound diagnosis,the relationships between gender and disease,age and disease,ultrasound diagnosis and disease classification,gender,number of nodules and benign and malignant were analyzed.Results Among the 13 020 cases,524 cases was excluded.There were 2 291 male cases; abnormalities were detected in 1 679 cases,and the abnormal ratio was 73.29％; there were 10 205 female cases; 7 946 cases were abnormal,and the abnormal ratio was 77.86％.The proportion of abnormal thyroid cases of the total number of female was higher than that of male,and the ratio of male and female was 1.00 ∶ 4.73 (1 679∶7 946); gender differences were statistically significant(x2 =18.476,P ＜ 0.01).There were nodular type 5 018 cases,diffuse type 2 012 cases and mixed type 2 603 cases in sonographic findings.The nodular type on ultrasound images showed mainly nodular goiter(79.21％,3 975/5 018).The diffuse type on ultrasonic images showed mainly Hashimoto Thyroiditis(59.24％,1 192/2 012).The mixed cases on ultrasound images showed mainly nodular goiter (89.83％,2 331/2 595).Ultrasound diagnostic results showed that nodular goiter accounted for 65.52％ (6 306/9 625) and Hashimoto Thyroiditis accounted for 17.97％ (1 730/9 625).Proportion of thyroid disease increased gradually with age,reached a peak [29.93％(2 557/8 544) and 28.84％ (2 464/8 544)] between the ages of 41-50 and 51-60 years old.The proportion gradually decreased into[14.17％(1 211/8 544),7.26％(620/8 544)] between the age of 61-71 and ＞ 71 years old.The incidence differences of malignant nodules between different age groups were statistically significant (x2 =407.796,P ＜ 0.01).Among malignant nodules,solitary nodule accounted for 95.76％ (113/118) ; multiple nodules accounted for 4.24％ (5/118),and there were more solitary nodule than multiple nodules(x2 =15.286,P ＜ 0.01).About malignant solitary nodules,women accounted for 87.61％(99/113); men accounted for 12.39％ (14/113),and women's were significantly higher than man's(x2 =360.960,P ＜ 0.01).Correlation analysis showed that the results of ultrasounddiagnosisofvarious thyroid diseases were highly correlated with the ultrasonic types of diseases(r =0.139 99,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Nodular goiter and Hashimoto Thyroiditis are the most common adult neck discomfort diagnosed by ultrasound in Heilongjiang Province.The high-risk age of thyroid disease is between 41-60 years old.Thyroid malignant is more common in single nodular,and the number of female patients is significantly higher than that of men.

ObjectiveTo examine the clinical utility of four methods in diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis.Methods A total of 60 patients with tuberculous meningitis were included as study group and another 70 patients with non-tuberculous intracranial infection as control group. Four methods, including conventional acid fast stain,Myobacterium tuberculous culture in BACTEC MGIT 960, real-time lfuorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (FQ-PCR) and modiifed acid fast stain, were used to assay the cerebrospinal lfuid specimens for diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis.ResultsThe positive rate was 11.7% (7/60), 6.7% (4/60), 48.3% (29/60), and 61.7% (37/60), respectively in the study group as tested by the four methods. There was signiifcant difference between the four methods in the positive rate (P< 0.05). Modiifed acid fast stain was more sensitive than the other 3 methods in identifying tuberculous meningitis (P< 0.05). This method also could identify the intracellularM. tuberculosis. All the 8 samples from the 4 patients who were positive for culture ofM. tuberculosis were positive in the modiifed acid fast stain.Conclusions The modiifed acid fast staining method is simple, fast, signiifcantly more senstive in detection of the acid fastM. tuberculosis in CSF, either extracellular or intracellular. It is worthwhile to further investigate its usefulness in early diagnosis of tuberculosis meningitis.
