Seven Compounds were isolated from dry Radix of Lindera reflexa.They were identified as lauuobine (Ⅰ ), lindcarpinc (Ⅱ), laurolitsiuc (Ⅲ), ?pinostrobin (Ⅳ), ?pinocembrin (Ⅴ),octacosanoic acid (Ⅵ) and ?-sitosterol (Ⅶ ) on the basis of chemical and spectral aualyses.

Objective To compare the effects of different doses of dexmedetomidine on postoperative analgesia and sedation.Methods From January 2014 to November 2015,60 cases who needed postoperative analgesia and sedation in our hospital were selected.According to the dosage of dexmedetomidine,they were divided into control group and observation group,30 cases in each group.Two groups of patients were given analgesia pump for analgesia, with 0.5μg·kg-1·h-1,1.0μg·kg-1·h-1 two doses of dexmedetomidine,and analgesia 48 h.At different time points,the VAS pain score,Ramsay sedation score of the two groups were compared,the calm satisfaction in both two groups was recorded,the average incidence of delirium and delirium score in the process of the treatment and the occurrence of adverse reactions were observed.Results With the extension of time of postoperative analgesia,VAS scores in each group decreased,VAS scores in the observation group after 4h,8h,12h were (3.01 ±0.53)points, (1.95 ±0.58)points,(1.52 ±0.35)points,which were lower than those of the control group[(3.92 ±0.32)points, (2.86 ±0.67)points,(2.25 ±0.78)points],the differences were statistically significant (t=3.42,4.11,2.43,all P<0.05).After 24h,48 h,VAS score between the two groups had no significant difference(P>0.05).Postoperative 4h Ramsay score between the two groups had no significant difference (P >0.05 ).With increased postoperative analgesia time,Ramsay scores in two groups decreased,postoperative 8h,12h,Ramsay scores in the observation group [(2.95 ±0.83)points,(2.22 ±0.55)points]were lower than the control group[(3.76 ±0.78)points,(2.98 ± 0.89)points,t=3.45,2.38,all P<0.05].Postoperative 24h,48 h,the Ramsay scores between the two groups had no significant difference(P>0.05).The sedation satisfaction of the observation group (96.67%)was higher than the control group (86.67%),the incidence rate of delirium and delirium average score [3.33%,(15.11 ± 2.03)points]were lower than the control group[13.33%,(19.23 ±2.21 )points],the differences were significant between the two groups (t =4.32,4.32,3.27,all P<0.05 ).After treatment,the adverse reactions were mainly bradycardia,nausea,vomiting,drowsiness,respiratory depression,urinary retention.The overall incidence rate of adverse reactions between the two groups had no significant difference (P >0.05 ).Conclusion The effect of 1 .0μg·kg-1 · h-1 concentration dexmedetomidine within 24h of postoperative analgesia sedative is best,it can reduce the incidence of postoperative delirium,and without obvious drug side effects.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT), because of its good targeting, minimal invasion, and safety, is becoming a very active area in cancer prevention and treatment, in which the photosensitizers have proved to be the core element for PDT. We developed a new HPLC method for analyzing porphyrin photosensitizers using Shiseido Capcell PAK C18 (150 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 µm) as the column at 30 °C, methanol-1% aqueous solution of acetic acid as the mobile phase in a flow rate of 1.0 mL · min(-1) in a gradient elution mode, and the detection wavelength at 380 nm. This method, showing good specificity, precision, accuracy and robusty via methodology validations, can be applied to the purity test and assay of porphyrin photosensitizers, and has played a key guide role in the R&D of the new porphyrin photosensitizer--sinoporphyrin sodium.

Kenaf stalk was pretreated by the white-rot fungus Pleurotus sajor-caju incubated in solid-state kenaf stalk cultivation medium. Delignification and subsequent enzymatic saccharification and fermentation of kenaf stalk were investigated in order to evaluate effects of microbial pretreatment on bioconversion of kenaf lignocellulose to fuel ethanol production. The highest delignification rate of 50.20% was obtained after 25-35 days cultivation by P. sajor-caju, which could improve subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency of kenaf cellulose. And the saccharification rate of pretreated kenaf stalk reached 69.33 to 78.64%, 4.5-5.1 times higher than the control. Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) with microbial-pretreatment kenaf stalk as substrate was performed. The highest overall ethanol yield of 68.31% with 18.35 to 18.90 mg/mL was achieved after 72 h of SSF.

Gastric cancer is the most prevalent gastrointestinal tumor in China， threatening the life and health of patients. Surgery is one of the available therapies， which， however， induces postoperative gastrointestinal dysfunction （PGD） and other common complications. The pathogenesis of PGD is still unclear and no efficient targeted drug is available. In addition， the limited treatment measures fail to effectively improve gastrointestinal function. As a result， patients generally suffer from low quality of life and poor prognosis. In Chinese medicine， PGD belongs to the categories of "vomiting"， "stuffiness and fullness"， "regurgitation"， "abdominal distension"， "intestinal impediment"， and "intestinal accumulation". In recent years， there has been an explosion of research on the PGD of gastric cancer in Chinese medicine， and many research results have been obtained. On this basis， this study introduced PGD in modern medicine， and causes and pathogenesis， syndrome differentiation-based treatment， and clinical studies of PGD. It was found that diverse internal and external treatments are available in Chinese medicine for PGD such as internal use of Chinese medicine， Chinese medicine enema， auricular point seed-embedding， acupuncture， and moxibustion， which feature ease of implementation， small side effects， definite efficacy， and significant effect in combination with other therapies. This paper summarized the ideas and measures for treatment of PGD of gastric cancer by Chinese medicine， the research outcomes， limitations， and research directions， which can serve as a reference for further research on treatment of PGD of gastric cancer by Chinese medicine.
