OBJECTIVE: To study the bioequivalence of domestic oxcarbazepine dispersible tablets. METHODS: 20 healthy male volunteers were randomly given oxcarbazepine dispersible tablets (test tablet) and oxcarbazepine tablets (reference tablet) via p.o. The plasma concentration of active metabolite (MHD) of oxcarbazepine were determined by HPLC. 3p97 software was used to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters and the bioequivalence of oxcarbazepine were evaluated. RESULTS: After treatment main pharmacokinetic parameters of test tablet vs. reference tablet were as follows: Cmax(4.231?0.841) ?g?mL-1 vs. (4.350?0.861) ?g?mL-1; tmax(4.13?0.43) h vs. (4.28?0.44) h; t1/2(14.17?2.66) h vs. (14.44?2.09) h; AUC0～60 (113.00?22.25) mg?h?L-1 vs. (118.11?14.20) mg?h?L-1; AUC0～∞(126.35?20.94) mg?h?L-1 vs. (130.54?16.17) mg?h?L-1. The relative bioavailability of test tablet to reference tablet was (95.67?12.80)%. CONCLUSION: Two kinds of tablets were bioequivalent.

Objective To evaluate the effect of intravenous lidocaine on postoperative pain and acute rehabilitation after laparoscopic hysterectomy.Methods Ninety-six patients scheduled for lapa-roscopic hysterectomy under general anesthesia were randomized into 2 groups (n = 48 ).In test group,lidocaine 1.5 mg/kg was administered at induction,then with a continously infusing rate of 2 mg·kg-1 ·h-1 until the end of surgery.In control group,saline was instead.Record the resting and coughing pain scores at 6,12,24 and 48 h after surgery,morphine consumption during the first 48 h, time to first flatus,6 min walk test (6MWT)result,and side effects such as dizzy,nausea and vomi-ting.Results Resting VAS scores at 6,12 and 24 h postoperatively were lower in test group than in control group (P <0.05).Coughing VAS scores in test group were lower than in control group at all time points (P <0.05).The morphine consumption was lower in test group than in control group (P<0.05).Time to first flatus was earlier in test group than in control group (P <0.05 ).6MWT at day 4 and 5 were significantly enhanced in test group (P <0.05 ).Conclusion Intravenous lidocaine can reduce postoperative pain scores and morphine consumption,as well as improve early rehabilita-tion after laparoscopic hysterectomy.

Objective To evaluate different measurement methods in histogram for the diffusion and perfusion parameters from intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) MR imaging of different types of uterine fibroids.Methods 63 patients with confirmed uterine fibroids (80 in total) were examined with MR imaging.3D T2WI and IVIM imaging were performed for those patients.The fibroids were classified into three types (type 1, 2, 3) on the basis of different signal intensities on T2WI according to Funaki's theory.Real diffusion coefficient (D), pseudodiffusion coefficient (D*) and perfusion fraction (f) were calculated using IVIM analysis.25%,50% and 75% of those parameters (D25,D50,D75,D*25,D*50,D*75,f25,f50 and f75) as well as mean values (Dmean,D*mean and fmean) were calculated using histogram method.ANOVA was used to compare the IVIM parameters among the three types of fibroids.Results There were 44 type 1,24 type 2 and 12 type 3 fibroids in the total of 80 fibroids.There was significant difference among all the diffusion parameters from histogram and mean values of different types of fibroids, and only one perfusion parameter D*75 value showed significant difference (P<0.05).There was no significant difference among all the f values from histogram and mean values.Conclusion Different measurements of parameters from IVIM histogram showed no added value for diffusion features in different types of fibroids compared to mean value.While the perfusion parameter D*75 value from histogram can distinguish the features of perfusion within different types of fibroids compared to mean value.

To establish induction and liquid culture system for hairy roots of Danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza), Agrobacterium rhizogenes A4, LBA9402, 15834 as test bacterium were used to infect aseptic leaves of Danshen. The hairy roots were induced and positive transgenic hairy roots were selected with PCR using rolB and rolC as the target gene. Then hairy roots of S. miltiorrhiza were harvested and salvianolic acids were extracted with 70% methanol containing 1% formic acid. The content of salvianolic acid B (SalB) and rosmarinic acid (RA) were determined by HPLC. According to the above research results, the Danshen hairy roots induced by A. rhizogenes LBA9402 were inoculated into the following group of culture media: MSOH, MS, B5, and 6,7-V liquid media. Then the same methods of extraction and determination for the content of Danshen hairy roots were adopted. Last, the hairy roots of S. miltiorrhiza induced by A. rhizogenes LBA9402 were inoculated into the MSOH liquid media with different pH values. The content of salvianolic acid were extracted with 70% methanol containing 1% formic acid and determined by HPLC. As a result, three kinds of A. rhizogenes A4, LBA9402, 15834 could induce hairy roots and Ri plasmids were integrated into the genome of S. miltiorrhiza by PCR. Danshen hairy roots induced by A. rhizogenes LBA9402 and A4 produced much more salvianolic acid, which were (3.27 ± 0.37)% [including (1.04 ±0.36)% of RA and (2.22 ± 0.29)% of SalB] and (3.17 ± 0.20)% [including (0.92 ± 0.31)% of RA and (2.25 ± 0.26)% of SalB], respectively. Hairy roots induced by A. rhizogenes LBA9402 when they were cultured in MSOH liquid media produced much more salvianolic acid, which was (4.56 ± 0.36)%, including (1.12 ± 0.26)% of RA and (3.44 ± 0.23)% of SalB. Hairy roots induced by A. rhizogenes LBA9402 produced the most salvianolic acid when they were cultured in MSOH liquid media with the pH value 4.81, which was 4.85%, including 1.16% of RA and 3.69% of SalB. So Danshen hairy roots induced by A. rhizogenes LBA9402 and A4 produced much more salvianolic acid when they were cultured in MSOH liquid media with the pH value 4.81. The research had established the foundation on genetic engineering to improve the quality of S. miltiorrhiza.

Objective To explore the relationship between sperm DNA fragmentation rates and male infertil-ity.Methods Case -control study was used .Sperm DNA fragmentation rates were compared between the primary infertile males for unknown reasons (n=126) and the males whose spouses undergoing delivery in three months (n=100).Results Sperm DNA fragmentation rate of the research group was (11.95 ±4.89) %.Sperm DNA fragmenta-tion rate of the control group was (10.07 ±3.56) %.Significant difference was found between the two groups on sperm DNA fragmentation rate(t=-3.326,P=0.001).The 226 men were divided into group A with sperm DNA fragmentation rates<10%(n=130) and group B with sperm DNA fragmentation rates≥10%(n=96).The percent-age of male infertility in group A was significantly lower than that in group B (50.00%vs 61.62%) (χ2 =4.105, P=0.043).Conclusion Correlation is found between sperm DNA fragmentation rates and male infertility .
