Objective To study the effect of CsA in a therapeutic dose on the hepatic ultrastructure in rats.Methods Twenty-four SD rats were divided into 3 groups.The control group was orally administered olive oil,and the other 2 groups were orally given CsA 25 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg daily respectively.After 2 weeks.the liver samples were taken for ultrathin sections.The stereological method was used to quantify some hepatic ultrastructural parameters including volume density (Vv),surface density(Sv),numerical density(Nv) and specific surface(δ).Results CsA caused an increases of Vv and Sv and a decrease of δ in endoplasmic reticulum;a decreases of Vv and Nv in microbody;decreases of Vv in Golgi complex and glycogen inclusions;an increases of Vv and Nv in lipid inclusions.Conclusion CsA in a therapeutic dose could cause the change of hepatic ultrastructure of rat.

Objective: To establish an ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem quadrupole mass spectrometry ( UPLC-MS/MS) method to determine the concentration of carbamazepine and phenobarbital in human plasma, and apply in the clinical moni-toring. Methods:Diazepam was used as the internal standard, and the samples were precipitated by acetonitrile. An ACQUITY UPL-C? BEH C18 (50 mm × 2. 1 mm, 1. 7 μm) column was used as the stationary phase at 40℃ with a Waters XEVO TQD. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile (containing 10 mmol·L-1 ammonium formate) and water (containing 10 mmol·L-1 ammonium for-mate and 0. 1% formic acid) with gradient elution pumped at a flow rate of 0. 4 ml·min-1 . ESI was applied and the samples were scanning analyzed by positive ion multi-reaction monitoring mode. The plasma was precipitated by 200 μl acetonitrile and centrifugated at 12 000 × g for 10 min and tranfer it into an Ep tube. The sample size was 20 μl. Results:The retention time of carbamazepine was 1. 23 min. Excellent linear calibration curves of carbamazepine were obtained within the concentration range of 0. 25-25μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 7). The lower limit of quantification of carbamazepine was 0. 01 μg·ml-1. The retention time of phenobarbital was 1. 11 min. Excellent linear calibration curves of carbamazepine were obtained within the concentration range of 0. 5-50 μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 6). The lower limit of quantification of carbamazepine was 0. 05 μg·ml-1. The recovery of three concentrations of carbamazepine was (82. 1 ± 6. 83)%, (82. 91 ± 4. 3)% and (84. 35 ± 3. 09)%, and the recovery of three concentrations of phenobarbital was (84. 27 ± 6. 91)%, (84. 32 ± 7. 74)% and (89. 07 ± 6. 24)%, respectively. The intra- and inter-day RSDs were all less than 10%. There were no endogenous substances existing in the incubation system, therefore, there was no interference with the determination. Conclu-sion:The simple, accurate and rapid method is suitable for the determination of carbamazepine and phenobarbital in human plasma, which can contribute greatly to the therapeutic drug monitoring service for patients.

Objective To evaluate the effect of gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD)on exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods All of 74 patients with COPD accomplishing the reflux diagnostic questionnaire(RDQ)were.divided into GERD group(n=38)and non-GERD group(n=36)according the scores of RDQ.The clinical data including the frequency of exacerbations of COPD were compared between the two groups.Results The frequency of exacerbations of COPD was significantly higher in GERD group compared with that in non-GERD group[(2.68±0.77)times/year vs (1.38±0.49)times/year,t=8.74,P＜0.05].The mean FEV;percentage was similar in the two groups [(39.82 4-10.95)%vs(37.11±12.24)%,t=1.00,P＞0.05].The score of RDQ was probably as a factor of predicting the frequency of exacerbations of COPD(R2a=o.39,t=6.98,P＜0.05).Conclusion The presence of GERD appears to be associated with increased exacerbations of COPD.

Objective To investigate the placenta perfusion in pre-eclampsia by three-dimensional power Doppler ultrasound and analysing the clinical outcome. Method 80 cases of normal and pre-eclampsia pregnant women from July 2007 to May 2008 in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital were studied. The control group of 36 cases, pre-eclampsia were divided into three groups: a total of 44 cases, mild pre-eclampsia group (9 cases), severe pre-eclampsia group (26 cases) and chronic hypertension with pre-eclampsia group (9 cases). The placental vascular index (VI), flow index (FI), blood vessels and blood flow index (VFI) by three-dimensional Doppler histogram and the umbilical blood flow systolic to diastolic (S/D) by color Doppler flow imaging were calculated and the gestational age after delivery, birth weight, placental weight after birth were recorded respectively. Results (1)VI、 FI、 VFI and umbilical blood flow S/D value :6.3±2.9, 38.6±4.4, 2.7±1.3, 2.5±0.6 in normal group ;5.7±3.8, 36.3±7.2, 2.4±2.0, 2.4±0.3 in mild pre-eclampsia group;3.0±2.4, 31.7±5.0, 1.1±1.0, 2.9±1.3 in severe pre-eclampsia group ;2.2±1.6, 26.1±4.4, 0.8±0.6, 3.1±1.6 in chronic hypertension with pre-eclampsia group. Placenta of normal group and mild preeclampsia group VI, FI, VFI were no significant difference (P>0.05), placental VI, FI, VFI of severe preeclampsia group and chronic hypertension with severe pre-eclampsia group were significantly lower than the normal group (P<0.01) and than mild pre-eclampsia group (P<0.05). The umbilical blood flows were not obvious difference among four groups (P>0.05) ; (2) Gestationul age after birth, birth weight, low newborn weight rate and placental weight:(38.7±1.5 ) weeks, (3280±520) g, 3%, (568±141) g in normal group; (37.9±1.0) weeks, (2971±265) g, 0,(576±98) g in mild pre-eclampsia group; (33.2±2.6) weeks, (1820±737) g,58%, (458±154) g in severe pre-eclampsia group; (32.6±2.6) weeks, (1497±533) g, 7/9, (396±141) g in chronic hypertension with pre-eclampsia group. The normal group and mild pre-eclampsia group in gestationul age after birth, birth weight, low newborn weight rate and placental weight were not significant difference (P>0.05); severe pre-eelampsia and chronic hypertension with severe pre-eclampsia group in them were significantly lower than the normal group (P<0.01) and than mild pre-eclampsia group (P<0.05).Conclusions (1) Placental blood flow perfusion of the severe pre-eclampsia and pre-eclampsia with chronic hypertension of pregnancy decreased resulting in clinically lower placental weight, birth weight and gestational age at delivery, but there were no obvious differences in umbilical blood flow S/D values. (2) The investigation was helpful to clinical diagnosis in the placenta perfusion of pre-eclampsia by three-dimensional power Doppler ultrasound.
