OBJECTIVE:To study the in vitro percutaneous absorption of neostigmine cream.METHODS:Using isolated mouse skin as permeation barrier,the influence of different concentrations of azone on percutaneous permeation of neostigmine was studied.RESULTS:Azone could obviously enhance the percutaneous permeation of neostigmine,and the accumulative permeation quantity of neostigmine cream containing2%and5%azone increased7.17%and11.87%respectively compared with that of cream without azone.CONCLUSION:The percutaneous permeability of neostigmine cream is satisfactory and the best concentration of azone in enhancing permeation seems to be5%.

0.05).Conclusions Certain cases of GERD may have the symptoms of pharyngolaryngitis.After being treated with omeprazole or tegaserod,the patients with abnormal acid reflux may get significant symptomatic improvements.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the preventive and therapeutic effect of Keshu on acute alcoholism mice.METHODS:Acute alcoholism mice model was established,and randomly divided mice into model group and high,middle,low dosage of Keshu group;the tolerance time,lasting time and the concentration of alcohol in blood were compared among each group.RE-SULTS:Compared with the model group,the tolerance time has been prolonged,the lasting time has been shortened and the blood concentration of alcohol has been lowered in Keshu group.CONCLUSION:Keshu has an obvious preventive and thera-peutic effect on acute alcoholism,the preventive effect of which outweighs the therapeutic effect.

OBJECTIVE: To compare dispersibility between two kinds of plasdone used as the hydrophilic adhesive in nimesulide dispersible tablets.METHODS: Nimesulide dispersible tablets were prepared with Plasdone S630 and Plasdone K30 as the hydrophilic adhesive respectively which were dissolved in 5% alcohol solution or 5% water solution.By friability,hardness and dispersibility tests,the influence of S630 and K30 in quality of nimesulide dispersible tablets were observed.RESULTS: Plasdone S630 alcohol solution or aqueous solution showed same or better results in friability,hardness and dispersibility compared with Plasdone K30 alcohol solution or aqueous solution.CONCLUSION: Plasdone S630 could be used as a alternate of K30 for hydrophilic adhesive in dispersible tablets.

Objective To evaluate the significance of weight-bearing lateral radiographs in evaluation of malunited frac-tures of the ankle. Methods 17 patients with malunited fractures of the ankle were treated by different reconstructive operations be-tween March 2010 and October 2012, including 9 females and 8 males, aged from 17 to 64 years. According to the Takakura classifi-cation of ankle arthritis, there were 7 patients in grade 1, 4 in grade 2 and 6 in grade 3. Simple open reduction and internal fixation were performed in 5 patients, supramalleolar tibial osteotomy in 5, lengthening osteotomy of the fibula in 2, supramalleolar tibial and fibular osteotomy in 5. Tibiofibular clear space on the anteroposterior radiograph. Medial clear space, tibiofibular clear space and tib-iofibular overlap on ankle mortise radiographs were compared preoperatively and at last follow-up. Tibial lateral surface angle (TLS), the offset of the center of talar rotation from the tibial axis, and the displacement of tibiotalar articular surface center on weight-bear-ing lateral X-ray were also compared preoperatively and at last follow-up. AOFAS score was used to evaluate the function of the ankle. Results The duration of follow-up was 9 to 32 months. Bone healing was observed in all patients, and the average healing time was 11 to 14 weeks. Ankle joint degeneration grade had no exacerbation. The medial clear space, tibiofibular clear space and tibiofibular overlap had no significant difference between the pre and postoperative. Statistically significant change was seen postoperatively in the values of TLS (76.9°±4.1° vs 80.9°±5.2°). The offset of the center of rotation from the tibial axis and the displacement of tibiotalar articular surface center were changed from 10.8 ± 2.1 mm to 2.0 ± 0.5 mm and 4.5 ± 1.5 mm to 2.2 ± 1.0 mm, respectively. The average AOFAS score was improved from 45.7 ± 15.9 points preoperatively to 82.0 ± 9.9 points postoperatively. Conclusion Weight-bearing lateral radiographs can be used to judge the ankle restoration. Even if the mortise radiograph had relative good realignment, it may ap-pear obvious deformity on lateral radiographs. Good reduction of lateral radiographs requires that the mid axis of the tibia should pass through the center of talar rotation and tibiotalar articular surface be parallel on the lateral radiograph.

AIM: To detect the expression of microRNA (miRNA)-29a in pulmonary arteries of monocrotaline (MCT)-induced pulmonary hypertensive rats, and to investigate the effects of miRNA-29a on pulmonary hypertension.METHODS: MCT-induced pulmonary hypertensive model was established in Wistar rats.The expression of miRNA-29a in the lung tissue was determined by qPCR.miRNA-29a was overexpressed in the pulmonary hypertension rats by tail vein injection of miRNA-29a-mimic.Pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and systemic arterial pressure (SAP) were measured.The morphological changes of the pulmonary arteries were observed by HE staining.The protein levels of p-Akt and p-eNOS were detected by Western blot.RESULTS: The mRNA expression of miRNA-29a was significantly decreased in the pulmonary arteries of MCT-induced pulmonary hypertensive rats.Furthermore, after overexpression of miRNA-29a, PAP was remarkably reduced, while SAP remained unchanged.In addition, the increased thickness of tunica media, the remodeling of pulmonary arteries and the decreased protein levels of p-Akt and p-eNOS in the pulmonary hypertensive rats were dramati-cally changed after miRNA-29a overexpression.CONCLUSION: Overexpression of miRNA-29a ameliorates pulmonary hypertension in rats.These effects may be associated with the activation of PI3K/Akt-eNOS signaling pathway.

Objective To systematically review the efficacy and safety of Jinlian Qingre Effervescent Tablet (JQET) compared to Ribavirin for acute upper respiratory tract infection in children.Methods CNKJ,CBM,WanFang Data,VIP,PubMed,EM base,Web of science,and Cochrane Library databases were searched from the date of establishment to December 2016 for all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-RCT on the use of JQET in children with acute respiratory infections.Meta-analysis by using Rev Man 5.3.Results A total of seven RCTs involving 782 patients were included,while the group of JQET involving 392 patients,Ribavirin involving 390 patients.The results ofmeta-analysis indicated that the efficacy in Jinlianqingre group was superior to that of Ribavirin control group,such as clinical effectiveness [RR=l.26,95％CI=(1.18,1.34),P＜0.000 01],fever subsidence time [MD=-1.54,95％CI (-1.79,-1.30),P＜0.000 01],the time of subsided cough [MD=-1.53,95％CI (-1.79,-1.27),P＜0.000 01],the disappearance time of pharyngalgia [MD=-1.29,95％CI (-1.88,-0.70),P＜0.000 1],and Pharyngeal congestion disappearance time [MD=-2.80,95％CI(-3.11,-2.49),P＜0.000 01].The difference was statistically significant.There were three adverse reactions reported in JQET group.Conclusion JQET is superior to the Ribavirin control group in clinical effectiveness,fever subsidence time,time of subsided cough,disappearance time of pharyngalgia,and pharyngeal congestion disappearance time to treat acute upper respiratory tract infection in children.However,these results should be carefully interpreted,and this conclusion has to be further verified by high quality,large scale RCTs.
