OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for simultaneous determination of 6 residual organic solvents in aprepitant raw material as methanol,ethanol,acetone,isopropyl alcohol,methyl tert-butyl ether and tetrahydrofuran.METHODS:Headspace capillary gas chromatography was adopted.The determination was performed on DB-624 capillary column using temperature programming.The temperature of injector port was 180 ℃,and flame ionization detector was used with temperature of 260 ℃.Nitrogen was used as carrier gas with flow rate 3.0 mL/min.The spilt ratio was 5 ∶ 1,and head-space injection volume was 1.0 mL.The head-space equilibrium temperature was set at 80 ℃,and equilibrium time was 40 min.RESULTS:The linear ranges of methanol,ethanol,acetone,isopropyl alcohol,methyl tert-butyl ether,tetrahydrofuran were 6.052-605.232 μ g/mL (r=0.999 9),9.987-998.718 μg/mL(r=0.999 9),9.998-999.768 μg/mL(r=0.999 8),9.986-998.634 μg/mL(r=0.999 9),9.991-999.090 μg/mL (r=0.999 7),1.461-146.133 μg/mL(r=0.999 5),respectively.The limits of quantitation were 1.782 1,2.079 0,0.749 8,1.777 8,0.223 1,0.607 0 μg/mL;the limits of detection were 0.594 0,0.693 0,0.249 9,0.592 6,0.074 4,0.202 3 μg/mL,respectively.RSD of precision test was lower than 2.0％.Only acetone and isopropyl alcohol were detected in stability test and reproducibility tests,RSD＜2.0％.Their recoveries were 99.34-100.75％ (RSD=0.52％,n=9),98.20％-100.24％ (RSD=0.69％,n=9),98.07％-100.07％ (RSD=0.84％,n=9),99.86％-101.32％ (RSD=0.58％,n=9),97.87％-104.02％ (RSD=2.13％,n=9),98.26 ％-100.58 ％ (RSD =0.75 ％,n =9),respectively.CONCLUSIONS:The established method is simple,accurate and reproducible,and can be used for simultaneous determination of 6 residual organic solvents in aprepitant raw material.

Objective To study the correlations among lumbosacral anatomical structure variations and herniation of intervertebral disc.Methods Through analyzing lumbar CT images of 684 patients with lumbocrural pain between 15 to 24 years old, the anatomical variations of spondylolysis, scoliosis deformity, lumbosacral transitional vertebra, subfissure, lumbosacral angle and others (including vertebral muscles beside, spines, transverse process on both sides) were observed, and the correlations among these anatomical variations and herniation of intervertebral disc were analyzed.Results The correlations among these above mentioned anatomical variations and herniation of intervertebral disc were 93.6%,92.3%,87.5%,81.3%,72.1%,53.3% respectively.In 91.4% of patients, the lumbosacral anatomical structure variations suffered herniation of intervertebral disc at the same time.But only 36.2% of patients suffered herniation of intervertebral disc without lumbosacral anatomical structure variations.Conclusion Lumbosacral anatomical structure variation is the main reason of herniation of intervertebral disc on teenagers.CT examination,which can reflect the correlation between them.

Objective This exploratory study aimed to assess effectiveness with ethylene oxide treatment for removing DNA contamination. Methods 98 different spiked samples such as saliva, dander, skin cell, hair, blood and cartilage were conducted with ethylene oxide treatment. After extraction of samples, the dna was amplified and then the STR analysis was performed with 3130xl or 3500xl. Results A 6h EO treatment results showed that two saliva stains of 44 samples STR profile were detected; Just one hair of 54 samples treated with ethylene oxide was detected contaminating DNA with EO treatment for 8 hours. Conclusion This work suggested that it was more successful to reduce DNA contamination by using ethylene oxide treatment.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the clinical effect of biliary stent combined with intra-biliary radiofrequency ablation and stent alone in the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice.Methods:The PubMed, Cochrane library, Embase, HowNet, Wanfang, Weipu were systematically searched, the search time was up to February 2021. To collect and compare the clinical efficacy studies of combined intra-biliary radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of patients with malignant obstructive jaundice before biliary stent placement. After literature screening, data extraction and quality assessment conducted by two independent reviewers. Meta-analysis was performed with the patients' 1-year survival rate, 6-month patency rate after biliary stent operation, and comparative changes in postoperative complications as the main outcome indicators.Results:Finally, 9 studies were included, comprising 2 randomized controlled studies (RCT) and 7 retrospective studies, involving a total of 443 patients, with 211 cases in the biliary stent combined with intra-biliary radiofrequency ablation group and 232 cases in the stent alone group. The results of meta-analysis showed that in two joint groups compared with the stent alone group, in overall analysis, the rate of re-obstruction of the biliary tract decreased 6 months after stenting ( OR=0.24, 95% CI: 0.13-0.42) and 1-year survival rate increased ( OR=3.79, 95% CI: 2.08-6.90), the differences are statistically significant ( P<0.001), there was no statistical difference in the complications ( P=0.13). In ERCP group, the rate of re-obstruction of the biliary tract decreased 6 months after stenting ( OR=0.21, 95% CI: 0.08-0.55), and the 1-year survival rate significant increase ( OR=3.63, 95% CI: 1.76-7.48), the differences are statistically significant ( P<0.01). In PTCD group, the rate of re-obstruction of the biliary tract decreased 6 months after stenting ( OR=0.25, 95% CI: 0.12-0.51), and the 1-year survival rate significant increase ( OR=4.13, 95% CI: 1.42-12.03), the differences are statistically significant ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Compared with the stent-only group, the combined group is safe and effective in treating malignant obstructive jaundice.
