Objective To prepare ?-CD(?-cyclodextrin) inclusion compounds and PEG- 4000[poly-(ethylene glycol) 4000] solid dispersions of mefenamic acid (MFA)in order to improve its dissolution. Methods The inclusion compounds of MFA were prepared using saturated ?-CD solution method by orthogonal test. The solid dispersions were prepared using melt-cool process with PEG- 4000 as a carrier. The inclusion compounds and solid dispersions were identified by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) gram and their dissolution rates were tested in pH8.0 buffer solution. Results The suitable condition for preparing ?-CD inclusion compounds of MFA industrially was the weight ratio of 1∶4 between MFA and ?-CD, agitating for 4 h at 70 ℃. The suitable proportion for preparing solid dispersions of MFA was the weight ratio of 1∶4 between MFA and PEG- 4000. Conclusion Dissolution rates of MFA are apparently improved in inclusion compounds and PEG- 4000 solid dispersions, and the solubility of MFA is apparently increased by 2~3 times in inclusion compounds and PEG- 4000 solid dispersions.

Objective To investigate the pathogenic bacteria and drug resistance in orthopedics patients, so as to guide the clinical use of antibiotics.Method708 secretions and pus samples from orthopedic outpatients and inpatients were cultured aerobically.The detectable bacteria were subjected to drug sensitivity test in vitro by the K-B assay.Result259 pathogenic strains were detected, and 47.9% of them were Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus, 33.0%: coagulase-negative staphylococci, 14.9%),and the remaining 52.1% were Gram-negative (Pseudomonas, 7.3%; Acinetobacter, 6.1%). The drug-resistant rate of Gram-positive cocci to penicillin and oxcillin tended to raise over the three years : however, all the detected Gram-positive cocci were sensitive to vancomycin (100%).Most Gram-negative bacilli were sensitive to imipenem (95.8%) in the past three years and the sensitivity to ceftazidime was also high; however, the sensitivity tended to fall over the past three years. The drug-resistant rates of Gram-negative bacilli to CiprofIoxacin. amikacin and piperacillin were 46.0%. 47.0% and 51.2% respectively.ConclusionGram-negative bacilli dominate the pathogenic bacteria in orthopaedic patients and they tend to increase. The incidence of infections by Gram-positive cocci is lower than that of infections by Gram-negative bacilli. In terms of individual bacteria ,staphylococcus aureus leads among all of these pathogenic bacteria, Vancomycin, Oxacillin and Norfloxacin are preferred drugs against Gram-positive cocci, while imipenem and ceftazidime are preferred for Gram-negative bacilli.The incidence of infections by Gram-negative bacilli tend to raise and drug resistance of Gram-negative bacilli becomes serious:hence, it is crucialOto emphasize the detection of infectious bacteria and drug sensitive test and to use antibiotics rationally.

BACKGROUND: Biliary tract complications are one of the most common postoperative problems after liver transplantation.Balloon dilation and percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) has become an effective method to improve biliary complication after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT).OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the balloon dilation and PTBD in the treatment of biliary stricture after OLT through case follow up.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A total of 53 consecutive patients underwent interventional procedures to treat biliary stricture after OLT in the Department of Radiology, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University from July 1999 to March 2007 and were recruited for this study. The series included 46 men and 7 women, with 17-64 years of age. After OLT transplantation, all patients had abnormally elevated serum bilirubin level, and confirmed to suffer from obstruction of biliary tract by CT or MRI examinations.METHODS: Of 50 patients who received PTBD treatment, 36 underwent PTBD through right bile duct, 14 underwent bilateral (right bile duct and left bile duct) PTBD with 6 patients through left bile duct in the second treatment. A total of 13 underwent balloon dilation, and 3 were subjected to balloon dilation alone.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: An averaged 9.6 months of follow up was performed in 53 patients to observe obstructive jaundice recurrence induced by abnormally elevated serum bilirubin level after percutaneous transhepatic biliary interventional procedures.RESULTS: Follow up results showed satisfactory clinical outcome with obstructive jaundice resolved in all patients, except one patient, who received treatment with T tube, died of acute rejection at month 1 during the follow up, and one patient with liver failure had extremely poor prognosis after discharge at month 1 during the follow up. Obstructive jaundice was recovered even healed and serum bilirubin level was decreased to normal level in 51 patients at the end of follow-up. Primary success rate was 79% (42 in 53 cases), and assisted success rate was 21%. The first interventional procedure failed to treat obstructive jaundice in 5 patients. Obstructive jaundice recurred after primary percutaneous procedure in other 6 cases. No procedure related severe complications happened.CONCLUSION: Balloon dilation and PTBD are safe to treat biliary tract complication after OLT, without complication.

Objective To investigate the surgical management of unsuspected gallbladder carcinoma (UGC) after laparoscopic cholecystectomy ( LC ). Method The clinical data of 11 cases of UGC incidently found after LC from October 2003 to August 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. Results According to Nevin staging, 2 cases were stage Ⅰ , 6 cases were stage Ⅱ , 2 cases were stage Ⅲ and 1 case was stage Ⅳ.Four cases were treated by LC,including 2 cases with stage Ⅰ and 2 cases with stage Ⅱ ;another 7 cases were treated by radical resection after LC. All patients were followed up for 1-66 months after operation, 2 cases with stage Ⅰ were observed alive up; 2 cases with stage Ⅱ treated by LC died less than 3 years after operation, 3 of the 4 cases with stage Ⅱ treated by radical resection were alive up, only 1 died in 21 months after operation; 2 cases with stage Ⅲ died in 8 months and 10 months respectively, 1 case with stage Ⅳ died in 1 month after operation. Conclusions It is difficult to diagnose the UGC preoperatively. LC is sufficient for patients with Nevin stage Ⅰ , radical resection after LC is required for patients with stage Ⅱ or more advanced stage. If tumors are located in the neck of gallbladder, radical resection is required regardless of their stage.
