Objective: To find out the parameters of drop pill's process in proportion to matrix, refrigerant and addition, in relationship with the height and rotational speed of freeze-pillar and drop pills. Methods: Using parallel experimentation for the choice of matrix and refrigerant; mode and proportion of adding drug. Using orthogonal experimentation for the choice of height and rotate speed about freeze-pillar, dropping speed. With moulding probability of drop pills as the evaluation quota to decide the best dropping condition. Results: PEG 4000 is matrix. Methyl-siliconoil: Liquid-paraffin (3∶1) is refrigerant. Internal and external diameter of burette are equal to 4.5mm and 5.8mm. Drug is dropped into the refrigerant of 10～15 ?C by 50 to 60 dropping per minute (freeze-pillar height 120cm, rotate speed is 20 round per minute.) Moulding probability is of the highest one. Conclusion: The moulding technics of drop pills with high finished product rate and good quality.

AIM:To investigate the reasonableness test of different parts of Herba Asari.METHODS:HPLC method was used to determine aristolochic acid A content content in different parts of Herba Asari.RESULTS:Aristolochic acid A content in above-ground parts of Herba Asari was higher than that in the root,and aristolochic acid A was not detected ever in some Radix et Rhizoma Asari.CONCLUSION:It is more reasonable that the medicinal part of Herba Asari is selected from the root rather than whole herb,and it is coincident with medicinal literature.

Objective:To find a suitable sterilization for the Zhining oral solution. Methods:The contents of effective components in Zhining oral solution with the different sterilizations were determined by HPLC.Results: Pasteurization and flowsteam sterilization have little effect on the contents of effective components in Zhining oral solution, while autoclave sterilization and 60 Co radiation sterilization reduced respectively the contents chrysophanol or 2,3,5,4′ tetrahydroxystilbene 2 O ? D glucoside. Conclusions: The different sterilizations have different effects on contents of effective components. Zhining oral solution should be sterilized by pasteurization.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of platelet glycoprotein CD62p,CD63 and neutrophil surface CD64 in sepsis.Methods Fifty-six children with sepsis from March 2010 to March 2013 in Communicable Disease Department of our hospital were divided into severe sepsis group(n =16) and general sepsis group (n =40),normal control group included 34 subjects from health check.CD62p,CD63 and CD64 were detected by flow cytometry in children with sepsis,and compared with normal control group.Results The levels of CD62p,CD63 and CD64 in severe sepsis group were higher than those of general sepsis group (P ＜ 0.01).The levels of CD62p,CD63 and CD64 in general sepsis group were higher than those of normal control group (P ＜ 0.01).Correlation analysis indicated that CD62p and CD63 were in positive correlation with CD64 in children with sepsis(r =0.817,0.796,P ＜0.001).The positive correlations of CD62p,CD63 and CD64 with pediatric critical illness score were also found(CD62p:r =0.883,P ＜0.001;CD63:r=0.862,P ＜0.001;CD64:r=0.805,P ＜0.001).Conclusion CD62p,CD63 and CD64 are closely related to the severity of infection and diseases,and may be used as immune parameters for the estimation of the clinical severity and the prognosis of acute and severe diseases.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of heparanase antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (AS-ODN) on the invasiveness of human liver cancer cell lines SMMC-7721,BEL-7402 in vitro. Methods We designed and synthesized AS-ODN that was complementary to the start codon region of heparanase mRNA,and the control,nonsense oligodeoxynucleotide (NS-ODN). The ODNs with the final concentration of 300 nmol/L was delivered into SMMC-7721,BEL-7402 cells by Oligofectamine TM Reagent. We evaluated heparanase gene expression using RT-PCR and detected heparanase protein expression using Western blot assay after transfection. Cell invasiveness was measured by Matrigel invasion assay.Results The result showed that heparanase gene expression,protein expression and invasiveness in AS-ODN group decreased significantly as compared with control groups( P

An investigation on pathogens was performed on 219 consecutive adult inpatients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) from November 2008 to August 2009 in Hebei Province.Sputum samples from all patients in acute phase were collected for multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detection. Pathogens were identified in 125 patients. Streptococcus pneumoniae was the most common pathogen isolated in 75 cases (60％) ; influenza A virus was the most common virus isolated in 32 cases (26％) ; and mixed infection were found in 31 patients (25％). Streptococcus pneumoniae species were more frequent among patients aged ≤30 and 51 -70; Haemophilus influenzae species were more frequent among patients with coexisting disease; the percent of Mycoplasma pneumoniae species infections in the lowrisk groups( Ⅰ - Ⅱ ) was higher than patients in the high-risk groups ( Ⅲ - V ).The percent of virus pneumoniae species infections in patients with coexisting disease trended to higher than patients without coexisting disease,but the difference was not statistically significant ( P ＞ 0.05 ).The results indicate that Streptococcus pneumoniae remains the major bacteria,Viruses are frequently detected in CAP with influenza A virus being the most common one; and mixed infection should not be ignored.The age and underlying diseases are important factors influencing the distribution of pathogens.

Objective To investigate the water infectivity in key water regions,and analyze the transmission risk of schisto-somiasis in suspicious and high-risk environments in Hubei Province in 2016. Methods Schistosome-endemic areas of the Yangtze River,the Hanbei River and the Fu River were chosen as the surveillance and forecast sites. The water infectivity was detected by using the sentinel mice during the flood season. The infection status of residents in the villages around the surveil-lance sites and the activities of human beings and domestic animals were surveyed. The emergency response system was initiated when the water infectivity areas were detected. Results From May to June,among the ten surveillance sites of the first batch, two positive spots with infected mice were found,accounting for 20％. All the recovered mice(totally 200)were dissected:five mice were infected,with a total infection rate of 2.5％. Totally five schistosome adult worms were collected,with mean worm bur-den of 1 worm per infected mouse. The site with cercariae-infected water body started the emergency response and no epidemic occurred. From August to September,among the eight surveillance sites of the second batch,the recovered mice(totally 160) were dissected,and no infected sentinel mice were found. Conclusion The sentinel mice method plays an important role in an-alyzing the schistosomiasis transmission risk in Hubei Province.

Objective To evaluate the effect of wild feces detection in Oncomelania hupensis environments on the surveil?lance of infection source of schistosomiasis,and find the weakness in schistosomiasis control in Hubei Province,so as to put for?ward the targeted strategies and measures. Methods Four environments with O. hupensis snails in endemic areas of Hubei Provinces,where human and livestock often haunted,were selected according to the river systems,namely the Juzhanghe River beach in Jingzhou City,Changjiang River beach in Jiayu County,Hanbei River beach in Tianmen City,and Changshou River beach in Zhongxiang City,then the snail survey and wild feces detection were implemented in the selected environments. Re?sults There were O. hupensis snails,livestock,wild feces of cattle or sheep as well as positive cattle feces found in all the 4 environments,and the positive rate of schistosome miracidium incubation was 47.62%. Conclusion The schistosome miracidi?um positive rate of wild feces of cattle is high in the environments with snails in endemic areas of Hubei Province ,which has high risk for schistosomiasis transmission.
