Objective To determine the content of hesperidin in Weifukang capsules by HPLC,and to establish the quality standard of Weifukang.Methods HPLC method was performed on C18 column(4.6 ?200 mm,5 ?m).The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-sodium dihydrogen phosphate(0.05 mol/L)-phosphoric acid(200 ∶800 ∶0.5).The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min,column temperature was 25 ℃,and the detection wavelength was 283 nm.Results Hesperidin was linear at the range of 0.38 ?g～1.90 ?g(r=0.999 2)the mean recovery rate was 97.88 %,and RSD was 1.69 %.Conclusion This method is effective and reproducible and provides a basis for the quality control of Weifukang capsules.

For the requirements of social development,the medical model has changed from the medical model of organism to the model that of society-mentality-organisms. Thus,pediatrician must change old ideas and old model of thinking,improve knowlege structure and reform medical education model.

Azathioprine(AZA) and 6-mercaptopurine(6-MP) have a well-established effect as an immunosuppressive agent for inflammatory bowel disease(IBD),Myelosuppression is the most serious side effect during treatment.Thiopurine methyltransferase(TPMT) plays an important role in the metabolism of 6-MP. This article reviews the literature on the role of TPMT measurement prior to treatment of IBD with AZA/6-MP.

Mitochondria play important roles in cellular energy metabolism,free radical generation and apoptosis. Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the most profound features of cancer cells. Several distinct differences between the mitochondria of normal cells and cancer cells have been observed at the molecular,biochemical,metabolic and genetic levels. In this article,we review the relationship between mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and carcinogenesis of cancer cells. The possible mechanisms are also discussed.

Objective To explore the mammographic characteristics and technique in mammary tumor.Methods The mammographic materials of 200 cases with breast tumors which were confirmed by surgery, ultrasonography, biopsy or clinic follow-up were collected and analyzed retrospectively.Results Benign mammary tumors were found in 138 cases. They were the masses with round or ellipse in shape mammographically and soft clinically. In 62 cases of breast cancer, the mammogram showed irregular masses in 37 cases (59.7%), oval in 25 (40.3%), clustered tiny calcification in 32 (51.6%) and local infiltration in 4 (6.5%). The masses were hard on palpation, and their sizes were smaller on mammogram than that on palpation. Conclusion mammography is the initial modality for breast tumor, which can demonstrate main direct and indirect signs of the breast cancer, and shares high value in early diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the disease.

Delirium is a common disorder in aged people.Although it is in poor prognosis,delirium still has been under-recognized and inappropriately evaluated and treated.The clinical aspects of delirium on epidemiology,diagnosis,risk and precipitating factors,prevention and treatment were introduced in this paper.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of nerve stimulator-guided thoracic paravertebral block in patients undergoing segmental mastectomy.MethodsFifty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ female patients,aged 18-64 yr,with body mass index ＜ 24 kg/m2,undergoing segmental mastectomy,were randomly divided into 2 groups ( n =25 each):thoracic epidural block group (group A) and nerve stimulator-guided thoracic paravertebral block group (group B).In group A,an epidural catheter was placed at T3,4 interspace and 0.5％ ropivacaine 7-10 ml was administrated via the epidural catheter.In group B,thoracic paravertebral block was performed at T4 under the guide of the nerve stimulator and 0.5％ ropivacaine 25 ml was administrated.The perioperative adverse cardiovascular events (hypotension and bradycardia) were recorded.Shivering,chest distress,and dyspnea during operation and nausea and vomiting after operation were also recorded.The range of block on the operated side was determined by pinprick test.The efficacy of anesthesia was evaluated.ResultsThe incidence of shivering,chest distress,and dyspnea during operation and nausea and vomiting after operation was significantly lower in group B than in group A (P ＜ 0.05).Adverse cardiovascular events and respiratory depression were not found in the two groups.There was no significant difference in the range of block on the operated side in the two groups ( P ＞ 0.05).The satisfactory anesthesia was found in 100％ of cases.ConclusionNerve stimulator-guided thoracic paravertebral block can be safely and effectively used in patients undergoing segmental mastectomy and the efficacy is better than that of thoracic epidural block.

The use of five or more drugs (polypharmacy) is common problem in the elderly,and need to attach importance.Optimization of drug treatment is a major part of medication in older adults,and also is a challenge to clinical physician.Beers Criteria provided by American Geriatrics Society (AGS) is a strong guarantee for improving medication safety in older adults

Objective To investigate clinical features,diagnosis and treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and to improve the knowledge of 21-hydroxylase deficiency form in CAH.Methods Ninteen neonatal CAH cases admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of Shenzhen Children's Hospital from Jan 2004 to Aug 2011 were reviewed retrospectively.According to the early clinical manifestations,the serum levels of 17-hydroxyprogesterone,testosterone,progesterone,cortisol and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH),early diagnosis was drawn and they were given to the glucocorticoid therapy.The alterations of blood sodium and potassium were compared before and after glucocorticoid therapy.Results Fourteen cases of 21-hydroxylase deficiency were salt-losing form who all were complicated with adrenal crisis and five cases were simple virilizing form.All CAH newborns(19 cases) appeared dark color of skin and mucosa.Fifteen cases had resistence to milk,poor response and feeding problem.The weight of eight cases at admission were lower than birth weight.Five cases suffered from repeating vomiting and diarrhea.After glucocorticoid therapy,there were significant improvement of hyponatremia[(110.2 ±9.5) mmol/L vs (138.7 ±5.2) mmol/L] and hyperkalemia[(7.40 ± 1.59) mmol/L vs (4.40 ±0.69) mmol/L] (P both ＜0.05).Conclusion We should raise the knowledge and level of diagnosis of neonatal CAH.We should diagnose the salt-losing form of 21 hydroxylase deficiency which is highly complicated with adrenal crisis through specific clinical manifestations and necessary biochemical assay as early as possible.The glucosteroid therapy is effective.

Objective To summarize the strategies of nutritional support for patients with hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP). Methods The clinical data of six HLAP patients who were treated in our department from January 1998 to December 2009 were retrospectively reviewed. Results The disease conditions of all patients were improved after fasting and early nutritional support and lipid-lowering treatment. Three cases with severe HLAP received enteral nutrition via a nasojejunal tube. Another three patients with milder HLAP obtained low-fat diet and orally administered lipid-lowering drugs. The plasma triglyceride levels decreased from (25.30 ± 20. 48 ) mmol/L to (5.41 ±4.55) mmol/L. No relapse was noted during follow-up (range: 3 -24 months). Conclusions The approaches of nutritional support for HLAP patients should be customized based on the specific disease conditions,and the enteral nutrition and lipid-lowering drugs should be reasonably and carefully designed and applied. For severe HLAP, nasojejunal tube should be maintained in the early stage to ensure the application of enteral nutrition and lipid-lowering drugs, protect the integrity of gut mucosal barrier, and decrease the fluctuation of blood glucose.
