Objective To establish a rapid and precise continuous flow-injection chemiluminescence method for the determination of tetracycline and oxytetracycline. Methods In NaOH solution, tetracycline and oxytetracycline can sensitize obviously the chemiluminesence (CL) intensity of the reaction of luminol with KIO4, the sensitized CL intensity is proportional to the concentration of tetracycline and oxytetracycline. So, a new flow-injection CL method has been developed. The optimum chemical conditions for the CL reaction were investigated. Results Under the optimized conditions (KIO4 concentration: 1.0×10-5 mol/L; NaOH concentration: 0.1mol/L; luminol concentration: 1.0×10-4mol/L), tetracycline and oxytetracycline were determined. The linear range of the working curves was 1.0×10-7 -1.0×10-4g/mL, the detection limits was 1.0×10-8g/mL and 1.1×10-8g/mL, and the relative standard deviation was 2.6% (CS=1.0×10-6g/mL; n=11) and 2.0% (CS=1.0×10-6g/mL; n=11) respectively. Conclusion The method is simple, rapid, and sensitive, and it has been successfully applied to the the determination of tetracycline and oxytetracycline tablets, the mean recoveries being 99.7% and 98.8% respectively.

Objective To establish a rapid and precise continuous flow-injection chemiluminescence (CL) method for the determination of perphenazine. Methods In HNO_3 medium, perphenazine could be oxidated by ceriuim (IV) and CL was proportional to the perphenazine concentration without any sensitizers. Thus, a new flow-injection CL method was developed. Results Under the optimized conditions, the proposed method allowed the determination range within 1.0?10~ -7 -7.0?10~ -5 g/mL with the detection limit of 8.0?10~ -8 g/mL. Eleven parallel assays were conducted on perphenazine of 1.0?10~ -6 g/mL, with the relative standard deviation of 1.8%. Conclusion The method is simple, rapid, precise, and sensitive, and has broad linear range; therefore, it has been applied to the the determination of the perphenazine in tablets with satisfactory results.

Objective To study the microstructural and ultrastructural changes of the epididymis of experimental varicocele in adolescent rats and it's role in infertility resulting from varicocele. Methods A varicocele model was performed in adolescent Sprague Dawley rats by partially ligating the left renal vein,the different segments of the epididymides of the rats were prepared for light and electron microscopy,the microstructure and ultrastructure of the epididymis were studied. Results There were lesions of different degree and segment specific changes in the epididymis with varicocele.Light microscopically,the main changes were interstitial vascular hyperemia,lymphocytes infiltration,sperm granuloma developed in the interstitial;The structure of the columnar epithelia was anomalies,epithelial cells degeneration,even the vacuoles appeared in the epithelial cells.The number of halo and clear cells increased.Inside the cavity of the duct,there were shedding cells,macrophage,deformed sperms and residual bodies.Electron microscopically,numerous large lysosomes,the residual bodies,the defected main cellular organelles(e.g. the endoplasmic reticulum,the mitochondrion and the Golgi complex etc.)and even large clear vacuoles were presented in the cytoplasm of principal cells.Clear cells were filled with lysosomes that made them frequently bulging into the lumen.The microvilli of the columnar epithelia were sparse and showed local defects.The thickness of the basal membrane increased.Conclusion\ The experimental varicocele in adolescent rats lead to microstructure and ultrastructure lesions in the epididymis,which may be another important reason of infertility resulting from varicocele.\;[

Objective: To investigate the psychosocial characteristics and mind-physique status of pa-tients with gynecological malignant tumors. Methods: Clinical psycho-rating scale [life event scale (LES) and symptom checklist-90 (SCL-90)] was applied to test life events and mind-physique status of 60 cases of pa-tients with gynecological malignant tumor. The results were compared with those of 40 female patients with benign tumors and 40 normal females. Results: The frequency and tension value of total life events and those of negative life events in the malignant cancer group were much higher than those in the benign tumor group and normal group (P<0.05) and no remarkable differences were found in the frequency of positive life events among the three groups. The frequencies of total life events and negative life events were higher in the be-nign tumor group than those in the normal group (P<0.05) but there were no significant differences in the fre-quency of positive life events, total tension value or positive tension value among the three groups. No signifi-cant differences were found in the indices of SCL-90, positive scores and scorns of other factors among the three groups (P>0.05). The scores of somatization, obsession, interpersonal relationship sensitivity, anxiety, hostility, phobia, and paranoia were higher in the malignant tumor group than in the benign tumor group and normal group (P<0.05). The average positive scores and the depression scores in the benign tumor group were higher than those in the normal group (P<0.05), but there was no statistical significance in other indices between the benign tumor group and the normal group (P>0.05). Conclusion: Negative psychosocial factors are closely correlated with the occurrence and growth of gynecological malignant tumors. Active psychological intervention should be performed as eady as possible.

This study examined the synergetic effect of class IA Phosphoinositide 3-kinases catalytic subunit p110β knockdown in conjunction with oxaliplatin treatment on colon cancer cells. Down-regulation of p110β by siRNA interference and oxaliplatin treatment were applied in colon cancer cell lines HT29, SW620 and HCT116. MTT assay was used to measure the inhibitory effect of p110β knockdown on the proliferation of colon cancer cell lines. SubG1 assay and Annexin-V FITC/PI double-labeling cytometry were applied to detect cell apoptosis. And cell cycle was evaluated by using PI staining and flow cytometry. The expression of caspase 3, cleaved PARP, p-Akt, T-Akt and p110β was determined by western blotting. The results suggested that down-regulation of p110β expression by siRNA obviously reduced cell number via accumulation in G(0)-G(1) phase of the cell cycle in the absence of notablely increased apoptosis in colon cancer cell lines HT29 and SW620 (S phase arrest in HCT116). Moreover, inhibition of p110β expression increased oxaliplatin-induced cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in HT29, HCT116 and SW620 cell lines. In addition, increases of cleaved caspase-3 and cleaved PARP induced by oxaliplatin treatment were determined by immunoblotting in p110β knockdown group compared with normal control group and wild-type group. It is concluded that down-regulated expression of p110β could inhibit colon cancer cells proliferation and result in increased chemosensitivity of colorectal cancer cells to oxaliplatin through augmentation of oxaliplatin-induced cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.

Sensory Modality Assessment and Rehabilitation Technique (SMART) is one of the tools for assessing patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC) after brain injury, to detect signs and meaningful responses to the conscious presence of DOC patients, and to optimize the patient's potential communication and motor function through the development of a treatment plan, that can be used in the assessment, treatment, and long-term prognosis of patients with DOC. SMART can effectively reduce the misdiagnosis of DOC due to the environment, long observation and evaluation, the incorporation of family and care teams in the evaluation, and the normalization of the evaluation content. Besides an assessment tool, SMART provides treatment options. At present, the SMART treatment stage has been formalized, which can create personalized treatment plan for patients. The intervention after DOC evaluation can be divided into exploration, strengthening and education. SMART is advantaged in evaluation, treatment and prognosis, that can benefit the standardization of diagnosis and intervention of DOC in China.
