The fluorescence characteristics of reaction products of sparfloxacin with halide (F, Cl, Br, I) have been studied. It was found that sparfloxacin was oxidized by nitrous acid then reacted with halide further to formstrong fluorescence substances in acid media. Their fluorescence intensitites enhanced with aggrandizing of atom radii of halides, which could emit the strong fluorescence 58～151 fold more than that of sparfloxacin itself. Thus a new sensitive method for the direct determination of sparfloxacin in human urine by derivative-synchronous fluorescence was presented. A plausible mchanism was proposed to explin this behavior.

Objective To compare the safety between laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and open cholecystectomy (OC) for benign gallbladder diseases in elderly patients. Methods A total of 120 patients above the age of 60 with indications for cholecystectomy and tolerance to general anesthesia were divided into two groups (LC Group and OC Group), in admission order of odd or even, with 60 patients in each group. Peri-operative parameters including operation time, analgetic consumption, postoperative gastrointestinal recovery time, length of duration with fluid infusion, length of bed rest, postoperative complications, and hospital stay were compared between the two groups. Serum total triiodothyronine (TT3) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels, as well as the functional recovery of the abdominal muscles, were also recorded and compared. Results Peri-operative parameters were better in the LC Group than in the OC Group. Serum TT3 levels decreased significantly after surgery in both the LC Group (F=8.26,P=0.000) and the OC Group (F=124.70,P=0.000), with a more significant difference in the OC Group.Postoperatively,serum TSH levels decreased insignificantly in the LC Group (F=1.87,P=0.157) and significantly in the OC Group (F=27.24,P=0.000). Lasegue’s test at 7 days after surgery showed significantly higher leg-raising times in the LC Group than in the OC Group (t=3.640,P=0.000). Conclusions Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is superior to open cholecystectomy in the treatment of benign gallbladder diseases in elderly patients.

It is suggested that: ①When foot brace fixed the femur at inward rotation of 0?, 15?and then 15? after moving body position, and ROI was near the neck, BMDs of the neck and the trochanter were not affected in either of the three positions, with femoral neck with highest BMD; ②When BMD value of the femoral Ward′s triangle is taken as the index, it is better to take the mean of 3～5 scannings at one position.

Objective To establish an animal model of PCOS and to detect the DNA methylation states of LHR, INSR and AR genes. Methods 24-days-old female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into two groups. The rats in the experimental group were given subcutaneous implanting of levonorgestrel silica gel staff and injected 1.5 IU hCG twice daily for 9 days from the 4th day. The rats in the control group were injected with normal saline at the same time. Ovarian morphologic changes, sex hormone levels, fasting serum insulin and glucose were detected. The LHR, INSR and AR genes' DNA methylation patterns were checked by methylation specific PCR in modeling group and control group. Results The ovarian weight and volume in modeling group were higher than those in control group. The ovaries in modeling group showed multiple follicular cysts, and the number of theca cells and interstitial cells increased. Less developed follicles and corpus lutea were seem. The serum level of progesterone, testosterone, luteinizing hormone, fasting insulin and glucose were significantly higher in experimental group than those in control group, so as the LH/FSH ratio and HOMA index. No methylation of LHR and AR genes were found in both groups. The methylation frequency of INSR gene (76.7%) was significantly higher in modeling group than that in control group (P<0. 001). Conclusion The depression of INSR gene's transcriptional induced by DNA methylation is important in the development of insulin resistance in PCOS.

Objective To develop the human colon carcinoma(HT-29) liver metastasis model in nude mice,and to detect the expression of human telomerase reverse transcriptases(hTERT) mRNA in liver of nude mice. Methods Liver metastases were established in 30 Balb/c nude mice by intrasplenic injection of colonic cancer cells(HT-29),and the spleens were resected.After being sacrificed,the tumor growth was observed,and the pathological examinations were performed.The expression of hTERT mRNA in the livers of nude mice was detected by RT-PCR technique. ResultsHuman colon carcinoma(HT-29) liver metastasis model was developed in all the 30 nude mice,with the liver metastasis rate of 100%.The pathological results revealed the occurrence of liver metastases,and the expression of hTERT mRNA was positive in the liver tissues. Conclusion Intrasplenic injection of HT-29 cell is a reliable way for producing colonic cancer liver metastasis model,and the positive expression of hTERT mRNA in liver tissues indicates the significance of hTERT in the early diagnosis and treatment of colon carcinoma liver metastasis.
