Aim To study the pharmacokinetics of midazolam tablet after a single oral dose in Hui,Koreanand Han healthy volunteers.Methods Ten Hui, ten Han and nine Korean healthy volunteers were involved in the study. Each subject received a single dose of 15 mg midazolam tablets. The plasma concentration was determined by HPLC. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by DAS2.0 software and compared by one-way analysis of variance or KrusKal-Wallis rank test for PK parameters of different nationalities.Results There were statistically significant differences between Hui,Korean and Han nationality for PK parameters C_(max),MRT_(0～12 h) and T_(max)(P＜0.05).The ranges of interindividual variation in the different ethnic groups and the same ethnic group were large.There were not satisfactory differences between young males and females for all pharmacokinetic parameters(P＞0.05).Followimg oral administration, doublepeaks in midazolam blood concentration-time profiles were observed in more than half of subjects.Conclusion There are large interindividual variation and statistically significant difference in pharmacokinetics of midazolam tablet between Chinese Hui, Korean and Han.These observations suggest the dosage of midazolam should be adjusted in clinical practice.

0.05).The addition of sIL-6R to group SFT6 restored UCB cells expansion to a higher extent than in group SFT,SFT6 and SFTs(P0.05).Conclusion:The IL-6/sIl-6R in combination with SCF,FL and TPO could enhance the expansion of cord blood CD34+ cells and their expression of CD49d,CD62L and CXCR4.

Objective To investigate the association of gene polymorphism of cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) with ulcerative colitis (UC) in Chinese patients. Methods The A+49G transition polymorphism at position 49 (exon 1) and C-318T transition polymorphism at position -318 in promoter of the CTLA-4 gene were determined by polymerase chain reaction with sequence specific primers (PCR-SSP) method in 82 Chinese patients with UC and 204 healthy controls of Han nationality. Results No significant differences in the distribution of genotype and allele frequencies were observed between CTLA-4 C-318T and A+49G gene polymorphisms in UC patients and normal controls. How- ever , comparing with healthy subjects,the frequency of haplotype 2,3 (C -318 -G 49 /T -318 -A 49 ) in UC patients was significantly reduced (26% vs 41%, P

AIM: To study the DNA fingerprinting of crude and processed Atractylodes lancea. METHODS: DNA fingerprinting of samples of crude and processed Atractylodes lancea were examined by RAPD. RESULTS: All crude Atractylodes lancea showed similar fingerprinting characteristics,while the processed Atractylodes lancea products indicated considerable different results. CONCLUSION: DNA fingerprinting is a reliable method for di-(fferentiating) crude Atractylodes lancea.

Because of the increasing importance of medical equipment in hospital,medical equipment maintenance division,a department guaranteeing the normal performance of medical equipment,will also act as a vital way.This paper introduces some problems in the management of medical equipment maintenance division and analyses the reasons.Some ways and means are suggested to manage the medical equipment maintenance.

AIM:To detect the effect and underlying mechanism of parthenolide ( PN) on neointimal hyperpla-sia.METHODS:After 1 week of high-fat feeding, 30 male New Zealand white rabbits (2.0~2.3 kg) were randomly di-vided into 6 groups: sham +NS, rabbits received 0.9% normal saline after sham operation; sham +DMSO, rabbits re-ceived DMSO after sham operation;balloon injury(BI)+NS, rabbits received NS after balloon injury;BI+DMSO, rabbits received DMSO after balloon injury;BI+PN low, rabbits received PN at 1 mg/kg after balloon injury;BI+PN high, rab-bits received PN at 2 mg/kg after balloon injury .The drugs were intraperitoneal injected once a day after the operation until sacrifice.After fed with high-fat diet for 4 weeks, the intima-media thickness, the expression of caspase-1, IL-1β, the lev-els of IL-8, TC, TG, LDL and HDL in the serum were measured .RESULTS:Compared with sham +DMSO group, the thickness of intima, the amount of caspase-1, IL-1βand IL-8 in BI +DMSO group were significantly increased ( P <0.05).The levels of caspase-1, IL-1βand IL-8 were significantly decreased in BI +PN high group compared with BI +DMSO group (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Neointimal hyperplasia is suppressed by PN after balloon injury , the potential mechanism may be associated with its anti-inflammatory role .

Objective To explore the clinical value of monoenergetic technology of dual-source CT in removing the artifact of me-tallic fixation after the operation of lumbar spondylolysis.Methods 24 cases of patients with metallic fixation after operation of lum-bar spondylolysis were scanned by dual-energy CT.To reconstruct the imaging using monoenergetic and 3D Inspace software,obtain 50,80,110,140,170 keV five groups of images and the multi-planar reconstruction*(MPR),volume vendering(VR),maximum intensity projection(MIP)imaging in different conditions.The five groups image and average weighted 120kev image are evaluate by two senior radiologist.The quality score of five groups of images and the average weighted images are analyzed statistically using Kruskal-Wallis test.The clinical value of images in the optimal condition are evaluated by two senior department of orthopedics phy-sicians.The results of two radiologists and department of orthopedics physician are examined by kappa test to evaluate consistency. Results In all patients after operation,the case of 110keV images above 3 points is 24,the case of 80keV images above 3 points is 14,the case of of 140keV images above 3 points is 13,the case of weighted average 120kev images above 3 points is 8.Images in 110keV have the best quality (F=98.523,P<0.01).MPR,VR,MIP images are reconstructed in 110keV.The ratio of image which are excellent and have high clinical value is 86.1%,especially the ratio of MPR image is 100%.Conclusion Monoenergetic technology of dual-source CT has a higher clinical value in removing the artifact of metallic fixation after the operation of lumbar spondylolysis.Under the condition of 110keV the quality of images are best,the reconstructed images using MPR Technology have the best clinical value.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and feasibility of extra-peritoneal larparoscopic radical prostatectomy (eLRP) in the treatment of patients with high-risk prostate cancer (HRPC).Methods From February 2009 to December 2013,121 patients,who were diagnosed as HRPC according to the D'Amico definition,were received eLRP.The mean age was 70 years old (range 54 ～ 82 years old).The mean PSA level was 25.45 (range 2.40 ～ 111.31) μg/L and mean Gleason score was 8 (range 6 ～ 10).The classification of clinic stage in this study included 52 cases in cT1-cT2b,58 cases in cT2c,8 cases in cT3a,and 3 cases incT3b,respectively.The perioperative data were collected,including operative time,blood loss,intraoperative complications,urine leakage,lymph leakage,incontinent ability,erectile function and changing of PSA level.Results All the operations were successfully performed.The mean operative time was 165 minutes (range 105 ～341min),the average blood loss was 150 ml(range 50 ～ 1500ml).The intraoperative complications included hemorrhage in 4 cases and intra-operative obturator nerve injury in 3 cases.The mean duration of intestinal function recovery was 35h (range 24 ～72h) The mean interval of catheter indwelling was 9 days (range 7 ～14 days).The anastomotic leakage was found in 12 cases,including 1 day after surgery in 5 cases,2 days after surgery in 3 cases,3 days after surgery in 2 cases,4 day after surgery in 1 case and 5 day after surgery in 1 case.The anastomotic stricture in 3 cases within 2 to 4 months after operation,which the symptom improved after urethral dilation in 2 cases and urethrotomy in 1 case.Deep vein thrombosis was noticed in 1 case 5 days after the procedure.And lymphatic fistula was recorded in 1 case after the operation.Positive surgical margin,seminal vesicle invasion,and positive iliac vessel lymph node were found in 18,21,and 9 patients,respectively.The mean hospitalization duration was 10 days (range 5 ～ 22 d).Of the 107 patients followed-up,Ninety-six patients were continent in 1 year,except other 11 patients.Nerve sparing procedure was performed in 51 patients,and thirty-three of them were potent.The mean PSA level was 0.14 μg/L (range 0 ～8.75 μg/L) six weeks after the surgey.Fourty-eight patients had biochemical recurrence with 5 ～36 months followed-up,mean 18 months.Conclusions Extraperitoneal LRP is an efficacious approach for patients with high-risk prostate cancer.
