The fragmentation pathways of two taxanes drugs have been studied in positive ion mode by Q-TOF with the advantages of high mass accuracy and high resolution analysis. The [M+H] + ions were observed by ESI-MS, from which the molecular weights were obtained. Using the protonated pseudo-molecular ions [M+H]+ as internal reference compounds, the accurate mass and element composition of the fragment ions were determined. The collision induced dissociation (CID) data of the [M+H] ions provided fragmentation pathways of related compounds. Results showed that the major cleavage pathways of paclitaxel and docetaxel were the same that the cleavage of C-O bond between the side chain and taxol skeleton easily occurred, then stripping of the functional groups on the parent ring. Some common fragments were formed, such as m/z 105.033 7, 291.137 3, 309.148 5, 327.159 7, 387.181 2 and 509.217 4, which would provide a basis for future qualitative and quantitative analysis of taxanes in vitro and in vivo.

Objective To analyze the correlative factors of peptic ulcer recurrence in the elderly. Methods From January to December 2009,169 elderly patients (≥ 60 years old)with peptic ulcer delected by edoscopy were enrolled,whose treatment and usage of medication were analyzed.Data of treatment and recurrence in 3-year follow-up were recorded.Mann-Whitney rank sum test and Logistic regression analysis were performed to analyze the correlated factors.Results The potential risk factors associated with recurrence of peptic ulcer in the elderly were screened and analyzed by single factor analysis,and ulcer size, ulcer location, concomitant usage of drugs, smoking and condition of Helicobacterpylori (H .pylori )infection at the end of follow-up were found to be correlated with recurrence of peptic ulcer in the elderly.After adjusting age and gender,the potential risk factors were analyzed by a Logistic stepwise regression model.Smoking (OR = 1 .788,P = 0.001 ),combined medication (OR=6.202,P =0.015 ),ulcer size (OR =2.697,P =0.032 )and condition of H .pylori infection at the end of follow-up (OR=43.784,P =0.007)were found to be correlated with recurrence of peptic ulcer in the elderly.Conclusion Smoking,combined medication,ulcer size and condition of H .pylori infection at the end of follow-up have an impact on peptic ulcer recurrence in the elderly.

Objective To characterize the population dynamics and spatial distribution of Aleuroglyphus ovatus in the flour warehouse,so as to provide the basic evidence for improving the sampling guidelines that are essential for effective pest monitor?ing and management. Methods The samples from flour warehouses of four localities were collected,examined and counted for A. ovatus in every month in Wuhu City. The dispersion pattern target,Iwao m*/-x regression analysis and Taylor power method were used for analyzing the spatial distribution pattern of A. ovatus in the flour warehouses. Results The peaks of population dynamics of A. ovatus were discovered in July and September,respectively. The indexes of dispersion were as follows:I>0, CA>0,m*/-x >1. At the same time,the parameters in the equation of Iwao:m*=5.471+1.022-x (r=0.999)and Taylor:lgS2=0.697+1.111 lg-x (r=0.987)showed that the spatial distribution pattern of A. ovatus was assembled. Conclusion The peaks of population dynamics of A. ovatus in the flour warehouse are bimodal pattern ,and the spatial distribution pattern of A. ovatus is assembled.

Objective To observe the mitochondrial damage associated with protein-energy wasting of skeletal muscle in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) model of Goto-Kakizaki(GK) rats and evaluate the effects of low-protein diet supplemented with α-keto acids on muscle wasting.Methods Forty-five male 24-week-age GK rats were randomly divided into three groups,normal protein diet group (NPD),low-protein diet group (LPD) and LPD +or-keto group (Keto).Fifteen gender and age matched Wistar rats were served as control group (CTL).The living condition of GK rats was observed and the weight was measured once a week.Urine albumin,serum glucose,creatinine and urea nitrogen were measured at 24,32,40,48 week age.Soleus muscle was observed to calculate the muscle size and the percentage of Ⅰ and Ⅱ type muscle fiber with software after SDH and NADH staining at 48-week-age.Tissue ultrastructure was observed under the transmission electron microscopy.The activity of citrate synthase was detected by spectrophotometer.Expression of mitochondrial DNA was examined by Q-PCR.Results Compared with the CTL group,NPD,LPD and Keto groups had lower body weight,higher urine albumin,higher serum creatinine and urea nitrogen (P ＜ 0.05).The crosssectional area of muscle fibers was larger in CTL group.Compared with CTL group,the muscle fiber was partly broken,the mitochondrial morphology was obviously changed,the percentage of type Ⅱmuscle fiber was increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05),and the activity of citrate synthase and the number of mitochondrial DNA were decreased significantly in NPD,LPD and Keto groups (P ＜ 0.05).In Keto group,muscle wasting was improved compared with NPD and LPD group (P ＜ 0.05),the crosssectional area of soleus muscle increased and the percentage of type Ⅱ muscle fiber decreased,levels of urine albumin,semm creatinine and urea nitrogen decreased (P ＜ 0.05).Under transmission electron microscopy,the muscle fiber of keto group was intact and mitochondiral morphology was close to that of CTL group.The activity of citrate synthase and number of mitochondiral DNA were higher as compared to CTL group (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences between NPD and LPD group.Conclusions In DKD condition,protein degradation in the skeletal muscle is accelerated,mitochondrion is swelling,the number of mitochondrial DNA is decreased and mitochondrial function is impaired.Low-protein diet supplemented with α-keto acids can improve mitochondrial damage and muscle wasting induced by DKD.

Objective To study the visfatin level changes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to study the correlation of visfatin level and atherosclerosis in RA.Methods Fifty cases of patients were divided to the plaque group (33 cases) and plaque-free group (17 cases) according to the carotid intima media thickness checked by carotid ultrasonography.In addition, their blood lipid level, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), rheumatoid factors (RFs), anti-CCP, visfatin etc.were measured.Fifty healthy people were set as the control group.The correlation between the visfatin level of RA patients and atherosclerosis was analyzed.The statistical analysis was carried out with independent t-test,analysis of variance, Spearman correlation analysis and multiple stepwise regression.Results The serum visfatin level of RA plaques group was obviously higher than that of the plaque-free group [(47±22) μg/L vs (34±19) μg/L, t=4.361, P＜0.01].The serum visfatin level of RA patients was positively correlated to HOMA-IR (r=0.567, P=0.001), RF (r=0.502, P=0.003), anti-cyclic peptide containing citrulline, (anti-CCP) (r=0.420, P=0.038) and carotid artery IMT (r=0.596, P=0.001).High-density lipoprotein-C (OR=1.009, P=0.020), HOMA-IR (OR=1.450, P=0.006), anti-CCP (OR=1.005, P=0.014) and visfatin (OR=0.971, P=0.008) were independent relevant factors affecting carotid artery IMT.Conclusion The serum visfatin level of RA patients is closely related to atherosclerosis.
