OBJECTIVE: To enhance the dissolution rate and efficacy of nimodipine (NMDP) which is a poorly water-soluble substance, and to design the formulations with fast-release properties. METHOD: NMDP-PVP-k30 coprecipitate and physical mixture were prepared. The physical states of NMDP in both newly-made and one-year-old samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis. The dissolution rates of NMDP from coprecipitate and from physical mixture were also compared. Five formulations were prepared on the basis of NMDP-PVP-k30 coprecipitate and their in vitro drug dissolution behaviors were examined. Also, the dissolution property of the capsules with one selected composition was examined. The selected capsules were compared with two commercial tablets on their drug release processes. RESULTS: NMDP-PVP-k30 coprecipitate gave much higher improvement in the dissolution rate than the physical mixture, and NMDP was released 89% from the coprecipitate and 45% from the physical mixture in five minutes respectively. There was no appearance of crystallization in the coprecipitate after one year storage under experimental conditions. The tablet formulation with the highest drug dissolution rate was selected. The capsules with the same composition as the selected tablet showed a higher drug dissolution rate, which indicated that drug release property was influenced by the compressing pressure. The results showed that the dissolution rate of NMDP from the selected capsules was about three to four times of that from the two commercial tablets.CONCLUSION: The dissolution rate of NMDP can be improved greatly by coprecipitation using PVP-k30 as a carrier.

Head and neck cancer presents with complex anatomy and high intratumoralheterogeneity. Radiotherapy is one of the main treatments. The therapeutic strategy and prognostic evaluation in head and neck cancer patients traditionally depend on TNM stage, lacking of individual information. Radiomics can extracts high-throughput image features relevant to the biology of tumors, which provides a non-invasive and quantitative method to evaluate the overall tumor heterogeneity and also offers a novel perspective for precision radiotherapy. The research progresses on the application and chanllenges of radiomics in the radiotherapy for head and neck cancer were summarized in this review.

OBJECTIVE: To optimize the purification technique for the extract of Acanthopanax senticosus Harms. METHODS: The techniques of D- 101 macroporous resin adsorption, polyamide adsorption and n- butanol extraction were separately applied to purify the aqueous extract of Acanthopanax senticosus Harms. Syringin was detected by HPLC and total flavone was detected by UV. The anti- cerebral ischemia effects of three purified samples were compared using rat MCAO model and mouse decapitation gape model. RESULTS: The three purified samples all showed anti- cerebral ischemia effects, with the sample purified via D- 101 macroporous resin adsorption having stronger effects than the other two. The content of Syringin was correlated with anti- cerebral ischemia effects. CONCLUSIONS: D- 101 macroporous resin adsorption is a be-tter technique for purifying the aqueous extract of Acanthopanax senticosus Harms.

Objective To investigate the changes of airway resistance before and after Bronchial Diulation Test in patients with senile asthma and the effect of age on the degree of airway resistance. Methods A total of 29 (> 60 years)senile asthma patients and 21 younger(< 60 y)patients were enrolled in the study. The status of their pulmonary function was determined by MEFV(Maximum expiratory flow?volume curve)and an IOS(impulse oscillometry) system before and after Bronchial Diulation Test,The spirometric indexes such as forced vital capacity,total respiratory impedance,respiratory resistance and respiratory system reactance were collected and analyzed. Results Significant decreases of indexs were found after Bronchial Diulation Test compared with those before Bronchial Diulation Test in the study group(P<0.05,respectively). No significant difference in improvement of indexs was found between the group of patients with senile asthma(age > 60 years)and the group of healthy control(age < 60 years ). Each index of the airway resistance has a very good correlation with FEV1%,with the highest degree of relation is X5%. Conclusion The airway resistance of senile asthmatic patients was significantly improved after diuslation test and these indexes IOS would be valuable in evaluating the changes of airway resistance of senile asthma.

At 2:28 p.m. local time on 12 May, 2008, the Wenchuan earthquake struck with a magnitude of 8.0. After the earthquake, 1364 injured persons, including 732 women and 632 men, were admitted to Deyang People's Hospital. The ages of the injured persons ranged from 0.2 years to 102 years (mean, 42.5 years). Of all injured persons, 4.65% aged under 7 years, 13.84% between 7 and 18 years, 39.57% between 19 and 45 years, 24.48% between 46 and 65 years, and 17.46% above 65 years. A total of 1713 injuries were found in all the injured persons, and the predominant injuries were found in limbs, body surface, head and chest. The incidence of the multiple injuries was 23.64%. Eighteen persons with abdominal injuries received operation. Prompt, accurate and systematic evaluation of the injury is necessary in raising the rescue efficiency. Treating the injured persons according to a classification optimizes the usage of the limited medical resources. Early definitive operation is crucial in rescuing the lives of the injured persons, and the treatment should be applied within 24 hours after the earthquake, then the emphasis of the rescue work should shift to helping orthopedic surgeons with operation and debridement.

Background and purpose:As the development of the completion of the human genome project (HGP), the research focus is turning to the gene function research. At present, the domestic experimental research on the apoptosis of K562 cells induced by antisense olignonucleotides is rare. This study was aimed to investigate the effect of human chronic myelogenou leukemia (CML) bcr-abl fusion gene antisense oligonucletides on autophagy and apoptosis of CMLK562 cells in vitro. Methods:By liposome as the carrier, K562 cells were transfected with the bcr-abl gene antisense olignonucleotides. Hoechst staining method was used to observe the apoptosis inducing effect of different concentrations of oligonucleotides, the expressions of LC3-Ⅱ, autophagy-related protein, were determined by the Western blot method, the cell cycles were determined by lfow cytometry (FCM), and JEM-4000EX electron microscope technology was used to detect the apoptosis morphological changes. The apoptosis was detected by DNA agarose gel electrophoresis. Results:Hoechst staining results showed that the bcr-abl gene antisense oligonucletides signiifcantly promoted the apoptosis of K562 cells in a certain concentration dependent manner. Western blot showed that the expression level of LC3-Ⅱwas obviously higher in bcr-abl gene antisense oligonucletides transfected group than the control group, showing a promoting effect on cell autophagy. FCM test results showed that bcr-abl gene antisense oligonucleotides transfected K562 cells showed obvious cell cycle arrest, visible obvious apoptosis morphology under the electron microscope, and DNA Ladder showed obvious apoptosis fragments. Conclusion:The bcr-abl gene antisense olignonucleotides can signiifcantly induce the cell apoptosis of K562. This study provides a new method for CML therapy.

Objective To investigate the injury characteristic and the early remedy of the woun-ded in China Wenchuan earthquake. Methods rrhe study involved 1 420 patients from a hospital in City of Deyang during May 12-30,2008. Results There were 1821 injury parts in 1 420 patients.Of all.there were 1 089 patients(76.69%)with single part injury and 331(23.31%)with multiple trau-ma.The injury incidence rate of extremities,body surface and soft tissues was higher than that of the oth-er paris.The incidence rate of single part injury was higher than that of multiple trauma(P＜0.01).The wound flow accounted for 68.80% within 2 days after earthquake,which was more than that in other time (P＜0.01).The patients aged at 19-45 years were more than those at other ages(P＜0.10).Most pa-tients received first remedy 12 hours after earthquake(P＜0.01). Conclusions The speed of remedy is key to disaster rescue.and the gold time for early disaster rescue is within 48 hours after earthquake,when the principle of damage control surgery should be followed.It is necessary,in peace time,to strengthen training of self-care and buddy aid and learning about the knowledge on emergency treatment,as may help save more lives during disaster.

The clinical application of arthroscopic minimally invasive treatment of shoulder joint disease technology has become a routine,and it has been widely carried out around the world.Compared with the traditional open surgery,it only needs to establish a few channels in the shoulder and then the diagnosis and treatment of the structure under the acromion and glenoid joint internal lesions can be completed through the arthroscopic technique under direct vision,of course,including local collection of pathological specimens.Shoulder arthroscopic surgery has the advantages of simple operation technique,small economic burden of patients,small tissue trauma,quick recovery and high accuracy of disease diagnosis.At present,there are two main options for shoulder arthroscopy:the beach chair position (BCP) and the lateral decubitus position (LDP).The choice of surgical position for surgeons is closely related to the intraoperative operation,the risk of complications,the efficacy of surgery,and the cost of setting the posture.Shoulder arthroscopy of these two positions have their own advantages and disadvantages:in the BCP,the surgeon gets a better anatomical operation experience,if necessary,can be converted into open surgery at any time.Without continuous traction,upper limb nerve and vascular damage caused by traction can be avoid.But the incidence of cerebral ischemic events in patients may increase in the BCP.There is also possibility of the nerve damage of the pillow small nerve,great auricular nerve,lateral femoral cutaneous nerve and other nerves.In theory the risk of air embolism in the patients will increase in the BCP,and the cost of setting the position is also higher than the LDP.While in the LDP due to the patient's forearm continuous traction,the surgeon can get a more extensive operating space,and the occurrence of cerebral ischemic events is very rare.In the treatment of anterior shoulder instability after shoulder arthroscopic surgery,there is a lower recurrence rate in the LDP.The cost of setting the position is also significantly lower than the BCP.Of course,the disadvantages of the LDP is also obvious.In the LDP,the brachial plexus and other nerves or vascular injury may increase due to the continuous traction of the forearm.Meanwhile sustained traction in the LDP is also a risk factor for thrombosis,and so on.Therefore,there is still a debate about the optimal location of the shoulder arthroscopy.Many clinicians choose shoulder arthroscopic position based on their own experience and habits.
