Objective To compare the effect of epidural anesthesia on vaginal total hysterectomy.Methods Eighty patients with vaginal total hysterectomy were selected and randomly divided into group Ⅰ(40 cases)and groupⅡ(40 cases).The patients of group Ⅰ were punctured with two-point method to the first tube of epidural in L1-2 and to the tail tube in L3-4 The patients of group Ⅱwere punctured with one-point method to the first tube of epidural in L2-3.Observed the level of anesthesia,induction period and anesthetic effect of all patients.Results The upper bound level of anesthesia was higher in group Ⅰthan that in group Ⅱ(P＜0.05),the induction period Wag shorter in group Ⅰthan that in groupⅡ(P＜0.05).The anesthetic effect Wag better in group Ⅰ(92.5%,37/40)than that in group Ⅱ(70.0%,28/40)(P＜0.05).There were significant difference in maintain time,dose of boost and total between group Ⅰand groupⅡ(P＜0.05).Conclusion Two-point method of epidural anesthesia is better for vaginal total hysterectomy,as it can provide rapidly and completely anesthetic effects.

Objective To explore the absorption characteristics and mechanism of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) mediated transport of oleanolicacid (OA)across membrane in vitro.Methods The intake and transport of OA were evaluated by an HPLC/MS quantitative detection method.Safe concentration range of OA was determined by MTT.The effect of different drug concentration,incubation time,pH and temperature on the intake of OA by Caco-2 cells were investigated.The effect of P-gp inhibitor on the transmembrane transport of OA was investigated by the Caco-2 cell monolayer model,and the apparent permeability coefficient (Papp) was calculated.Results The uptake of O A was concentration-time dependent and correlated negatively to temperaturein Caco-2 cells within the safe concentration range,but was not significantly affected by pH value.Compared with controls,the Papp significantly changed when the P-gp inhibitor was added to the model(P ＜ 0.05).The apparent permeability ratio decreased from 2.90 to 0.95.Conclusion The absorption of OA was primarily by passive diffusion and might be mediated by the effiux by P-gp.

Objective: To evaluate the impairment of semantic memory in Alzheimer's disease.Methods: 22 Alzheimer's disease patients were examined by means of a longitudinal study and compared with 22 normal elders.Two semantic tasks,lexical decision task and semantic knowledge task were used,to evaluate the integrity of the same concepts.Results: In each session,the MMSE scores of the Alzheimer's disease group were significantly worse(P

Objective To compare the ameliorating effect of collagen peptide chelated calcium (CPCC) and estrogen on the bone quality in ovariectomized rats in order to serve the development of safe drugs for prevention of osteoporosis (OP).Methods Bilateral ovariectomized rats were divided into ovariectomized group (OVX),sham group,17β-estradiol injection group (OVX+E2) and CPCC gavage group (OVX+CCCP).Bone and serum indices of these groups were assessed and compared at 9 weeks after treatment.Results Bone density of the OVX group was significantly lower than the sham group (P<0.01),indicating that the rat OP model was successfully established.Like estrogen,CPCC inhibited the abnormal changes of all indices and maintain similar levels with those of the sham group (P>0.05),while the body weight gain of the E2 group at weeks 8 and 9 was significantly lower than those of the sham group (P<0.01).As regarding the prevention of bone loss,the Mg and Ca levels of the E2 group were significantly lower than those of the moderate and high dose CPCC groups.The Cu level was not significantly different compared with the sham group,while those in the moderate and low dose CPCC groups were significantly higher than the sham group.The Mn,Zn and hydroxyproline levels of the E2 group were significantly lower than those of the sham group,while the CPCC group maintained levels similar to that of the sham group.In regarding to the inhibiting effect on the increased blood BGP and StrACP,the E2 group was still maintained at levels similar to that of the OVX group,while those of the CPCC group were significantly lower than the OVX group.As regarding the decreased blood Ca,the E2 group was not significantly different with that of the OVX group,while that of the CPCC group was significantly higher than the OVX group.Conclusions CPCC is more effective than estrogen in ameliorating the bone quality of ovariectomized rats.

Objective:To establish a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS) method for determining the concentration of amlodipine besylate in human plasma and to evaluate the bioequivalence of 2 kinds of amlodipine besylate tablets.Methods: Twenty healthy male volunteers were enrolled into a single crossover study.A single dose of the suspension equivalent to 10 mg amlodipine besylate or a reference preparation was given in a crossover way.The plasma concentrations of amlodipine besylate were determined by LC-MS method in the volunteers at different time points;the pharmacokinetic parameters and relative bioavailability were calculated and the bioequivalence of the 2 preparations were evaluated.Results: The pharmacokinetic parameters for experimental and the reference preparations were: C_max(6.21?1.88) vs(6.03?1.08) ng/ml;AUC_0-120(250.68?52.61) vs(246.14?52.11) ng h/ml;T_max(6.0?2.3) vs(6.1? 2.5) h;t_1/2(40.45?6.68) vs(43.74?9.05) h,respectively.The linear range of the present method was 0.1-20.0 ng/ml;the lowest detectable concentration of amlodipine besylate was 0.1 ng/ml.There was no significant difference in pharmacokinetic parameters between the 2 tablets.Conclusion: The present method is simple to use,fast,and accurate.The 2 preparations of amlodipine besylate are bioequivalent.

Objective To investigate the awareness of osteoporosis and its influential factors in middle-aged and older people. Methods By using self-designed questionnaire, 354 middle-aged and old people were investigated as to their awarness of osteoporosis in Chajiao street community in Guangzhou. Among them, 58 people were measured the bone density in the calcaneal bone by Ultrasound. Results The average score of the questionnaire was 9.46 ± 5.13, and the accuracy was 39.4%. In the diagnosis and treatment, the accuracy was just 17.8%. The diet (the accuracy in 54%) and sport (the accuracy in 50.3%) were good. The statistical analyses showed the linear relationship between the T value of bone density and the age (P = 0.021), between the T value and the score (P = 0.047). Wilcoxon rank sum test found that the T value between female and male was significantly different (Z = -3.749, P < 0.000). With multiple linear regression analysis, the T value had a linear correlation with the score (F = 4.224, P = 0.045) positively. Conclusions Currently, the awareness of osteoporosis in the middle-aged and old people was inadequate. To better prevent osteoporosis, the propogation of knowledge and guidance provided by clinicians in osteoporosis should be improved necessarily and emergently.
