Aim To evaluate the effect and mechanism of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and Cysteine protease aspartic acid-3(Caspase-3) inhibition of human hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)implants in nude mice by nanometer magnetic interferon-?2b liposome targeting therapy.Methods Thirty nude mices bearing human HCC were divided into 5 groups of 6 mice:group 1,saline(NS);group 2,free interferon-?2b group(IFN);group 3,interfe-ron-?2b liposome group(IL);group 4,magnetic liposome group(ML);group 5,nanometer magnetic interferon-?2b liposome group(MIL).Above dosage of 200 ?l/nude mice was respectively injected through the caudal vein in these 6 groups.Meantime,magnetic field with the strength of 5000 GS was added to the tumor surface about 30 min,and this therapy was done three times.After 30 days,the mices were killed and the tumors were taken out.The difference at the mRNA expression level of VEGF and Caspase-3 was observed by RT-PCR between the experimental group and control group.The protein expression level of VEGF and Caspase-3 was detected by western blot between the experimental group and control group.Results Targeting therapy study in nude mice bearing human HCC displayed that the growth speed of tumor in the MIL group significantly slowed down than other groups.The tumor inhibition rate of MIL group was 62.50%,which was remarkably higher than those of the IFN group(27.61%) and IL group(28.17%).RT-PCR showed that the mRNA expression of VEGF of MIL group is the lowest of all groups(P

BACKGROUND: It is indicated in a large amount of basic researches that compound danshen di wan has a certain action on removing carotid atherosclerotic plaques (CAP), but there is lack of large sample data in randomized, controlled, multi-central clinical experiment.OBJECTIVE: To observe the removing action of compound danshen di wan on CAP, compared with aspirin.DESIGN: Multi-central, randomized controlled experiment was designed.SETTING: Research Center of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ultrasonic Department of Xinjing Hospital, Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA; Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Second Clinical Hospital, Xi' an Jiaotong University and Department of Cardiac Internal Medicine of Xi' an Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 162 cases were selected from the clinic of Research Center of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA; Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Second Clinical Hospital, Xi' an Jiaotong University and Department of Cardiac Internal Medicine of Xi' an Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from 2002 to 2004, aged varied from 40 to 80 years, the thickness of carotid internal media ≥ 1.2 mm. They were randomized into two groups, named danshen di wan group of 89 cases(cases of soft plaque and hard plaque were 49 and 40 respectively) and aspirin group of 73 cases(cases of soft plaque and hard plaque were 42 and 31 respectively).METHODS: In danshen di wan group: compound danshen di wan was administrated orally(10 pills/time, 3 times/day), in aspirin group, enteric soluble aspirin table was administrated orally(75 mg/time, once a day),continuously for 6 months. The alternations of thickness of carotid internal media were determined with ultrasonic B of high resolving power before and after treatment.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Changes in thickness of carotid internal media before and after treatment.RESULTS: By practical measuring analysis, 143 cases accomplished nation of thickness of carotid internal media in the patients with soft plaque:In danshen di wan group, the thickness was remarkably decreased after treatment[ (2. 12 ± 0. 34), (2.44± 0.40) mm, t = 4. 267, P < 0.01 ] . In aspirin group, it was also reduced relatively after treatment[ (2.25 ± 0. 3),of carotid internal media in the patients with hard plaque: The changes were not significant no matter in danshen di wan group or aspirin group in the comparison before and after treatment[in danshen di wan group: (2.46 ±0.42),(2.34 ± 0. 40) mm; in aspirin group: (2.42 ± 0. 44), (2. 36 ± 0. 38) mm,P> 0.05].CONCLUSION: Compound danshen di wan acts on removing soft atherosclerotic plaque and its effect is similar to aspirin.

Objective:To design a programmed evaluation process,and to explore its application effect in the management of medical equipment in emergency department.Methods:The information management platform was constructed based on IntelliJ IDEA and Java language with browser and server(B/S)architecture,a programmed evaluation process was designed to manage medical equipment in the emergency department.From 2021 to 2022,27 medical devices in use in the emergency department of Beijing Friendship Hospital,Capital Medical University were selected,the programmed evaluation process and the post-evaluation process were adopted respectively for management according to the different equipment management methods.A total of 800 equipment operation logs sampled were analyzed under the two management methods.The timeliness of equipment management,management effect and satisfaction scores of related management personnel were compared between the two management methods.Results:The average time consumption of equipment warning timeliness,timeliness of maintenance personnel's arrival and timeliness of proposed treatment methods in the programmed evaluation process management were(0.92±0.21)min,(5.43±1.08)min and(15.63±2.27)min,respectively,which were lower than those in post-evaluation process management method,the difference was statistically significant(t=13.810,16.893,16.554,P<0.05).The failure rate of 400 logs sampled by the programmed evaluation process management method was 2.75%(11/400),which was lower than that of the post-evaluation process management method,the regular maintenance completion rate was 99.75%(399/400),which was higher than that of the post-evaluation process management method,the difference was statistically significant(x2=18.841,10.778,P<0.05).The equipment maintenance time and equipment maintenance cost of the programmed evaluation process management were(9.32±1.18)days and CNY(201,600±50,500),respectively,which were lower than those of the post-evaluation process management method,and the difference was statistically significant(t=12.663,37.213,P<0.05).The satisfaction scores of maintenance engineers,medical staff and patients in equipment use management for the programmed evaluation process management were(97.25±2.44),(98.63±4.57)and(97.16±3.09),respectively,which were higher than the post-evaluation process management method,and the differences were statistically significant(t=21.284,8.206,5.933,P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of programmed evaluation process to the equipment management of emergency department of the hospital can effectively improve and make up for the loopholes and deficiencies in the conventional equipment management,improve the effect of equipment management,reduce the frequency of equipment failure,and ensure the safe and stable operation of equipment.

OBJECTIVE To establish a method for the determination of fourteen fluorescent whitening agents in cosmetics by HPLC-MS/MS. METHODS Samples were extracted on a Waters ACQUITY UPLC ®BEH C18(2.1 mm×50 mm, 1.7 μm) column after ultrasonic extracted by DMF with the mobile phase consisted of methanol-0.1% ammonia water solution by gradient elution. The flow rate was 0.3 mL·min-1. The column temperature was 40 ℃. MS was performed using triple quadrupole mass spectrometry. Electrospray ionization source was operated in the positive/negative mode using multiple reaction monitoring scanning mode. RESULTS The results showed that there were good linear relationships for the fluorescent whitening agents in a certain concentration range with correlation coefficients(r) greater than 0.99. The limits of quantification were 0.01-20 μg·g-1 and the limits of detection were 0.004-8 μg·g-1. The average recoveries at three spiked levels were in the range of 85.4%-108.9%, and the relative standard deviation were in the range of 0.3%-7.2%. CONCLUSION The method has high sensitivity, strong specificity, simple and convenient operation, and is suitable for the detection of fourteen fluorescent whitening agents in cosmetics.
