OBJECTIVE: To establish the method for the dissolution determination of Eslicarbazepine acetate tablets.METHODS: Samples were collected at 30 min with phosphate buffer solution(pH=4.5) as solvent and rotation speed of 50 r?min-1 according to second dissolution determination method(slurry method) stated in Chinese Pharmacopeia(2010 edition).The absorbance of 3 batches of samples was determined by UV spectrophotometry at detection wavelength of 288 nm.RESULTS: The method showed a good linear relationship in the range of 5～30 ?g?mL-1(r=0.999 8) with an average recovery of 99.74%(RSD=0.47%).The dissolutions of 3 batches of samples were 82.06%,82.72% and 82.64%,respectively.CONCLUSIONS: Established method is simple and reliable for the dissolution determination of Eslicarbazepine acetate tablets.

OBJECTIVEA fluorescence probe marked with a specific angle protein antibody by using quantum dots QDs605-CK (AE1/AE3) was utilized to detect metastasis and micrometastasis rates of early submandibular lymph node metastatic carcinoma in a nude mouse model. The method was compared with traditional immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining and hematine-eosin (HE) staining to explore a new method for early diagnosis and treatment of tongue squamous cell carcinoma.

METHODSHuman tongue Tca8113 cells were cultured and inoculated in 18 nude mice tongue body tissues (except the midline) to establish submandibular lymph node metastasis in tumor-bearing nude mice models. The nude mice were sacrificed, and the mandibular lymph node was dissected after injecting tumor cells for six weeks. One lymph node was divided into two parts: one was used to create a serial section embedded by paraffin then detected in HE staining and IHC staining; the other was immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen and detected using the fluorescence probe marked with a specific angle protein antibody by using quantum dots. Lymph node metastasis and micrometastases rates were calculated.

RESULTSThe rates of metastasis in the submandibular lymph node via quantum dot immunofluorescence staining, IHC staining, and HE staining showed positive values of 66.7%, 61.1%, and 27.8%, respectively. The micrometastases rates were 38.9% and 33.3% via quantum dot immunofluorescence staining and IHC staining, respectively. The positive rates of detecting lymph nodes metastasis with quantum dot labeled keratin CK (AEl/AE3) immunofluorescence and keratin CK (AE1/AE3) IHC staining were higher than that of conventional HE staining ('=6.379, P<0.05). The two methods showed no statistical difference (chi2 = 0.120, P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONQuantum dots fluorescent probe marked with the angle protein antibody CK (AE1/ AE3) can precisely locate the submandibular lymph node metastasis tumor cell of the nude mice tongue squamous cell carcinoma, and the emitted red fluorescence showed strong specificity, high resolution, and a clear background. The method could be utilized to detect submandibular lymph node metastasis and micrometastasis of tongue squamous cell carcinoma in nude mice.

Objective:To explore the changes of serum cholinesterase(ChE)and its clinical significance in patients with sepsis.Methods:Serum cholinesterase concentration,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation(APACHE)Ⅱ scores were estimated in patients.The patients in this study were divided into the sepsis group and the non-sepsis group.The patients with sepsis were further divided into the death group and the survival group.The influence of altered serum ChE levels on prognosis was compared between the groups.Results:(1)Serum ChE was significantly lower in patients of sepsis group than that of control group(P ＜ 0.01).(2)In patients with sepsis,the serum ChE level was significantly lower in the death group compared with that of survival group(P ＜ 0.05).(3)In patients with sepsis the serum ChE levels were significantly negatively correlated with APACHE Ⅱ scores(r=-0.280,P ＜ 0.05),positively correlated with serum albumin and body mass index(r=0.458 and 0.287,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion:Serum ChE levels can be used to determine the prognosis and severity of illness in patients with sepsis.

This article reviewed the theories and current researches of Ryodoraku Diagnostic System and pointed out its value in clinical studies, as well as the feasibility and significance of applying this system on the studies of electricity of meridians and collaterals.

OBJECTIVE To explore the risk factors of lower respiratory tract nosocomial infection in geriatrics patients after abdominal operation and the measures of prevention and control.METHODS The medical records of the 470 cases with abdominal operation from Jan 2003 to Sep 2006 were investigated retrospectively with prospective monitoring.RESULTS Among 470 cases,119 suffered from hospital infection,62 suffered from lower respiratory tract hospital infection,the infection rate being 13.19% and occupied 52.10% of the total number of the hospital infection in the abdominal operation.CONCLUSIONS Invasive operation,such as nasogastric tube,intubation,inhaling oxygen,sputum drawing out,cannulization,tracheotomy,and use of respirator after operation,lying in bed,vomit,using proton pump inhibitors,and underlying diseases are the causes of the lower respiratory tract hospital infection.To enhance the monitoring and control of the risk factors,we can decrease the rate of lower respiratory tract infection and mortality in geriatrics patients after abdominal operation.

OBJECTIVE: To prepare Flu mixture and establish its quality standard. METHODS: The methods of decoction- boiling and distillation were adopted to prepare the flu mixture; TLC was used to identify Radix Et Rhizoma Rhei and Rhizoma Curcumae Longae, and HPLC was used to determine the content of Artemisinin. RESULTS: The spots characteristic of Radix Et Rhizoma Rhei and Rhizoma Curcumae Longae. were clearly identified with TCL. A good linearity was seen of Artemisinin in the range of 0. 42～ 2. 10? g( r=0. 999 3) . The recovery rate was 99. 84% ( RSD=2. 15% ) . CONCLUSIONS: The preparation is simple in preparation technique and good in stability. The TLC method is highly exclusive. The HPLC method is simple, accurate, and can be used for the quality control of flu mixture.

Objective To evaluate the application value of DNA ploidy detection using flow cytometry method(FCM)in malignant tumor identifi?cation,so as to provide the theoretical basis for the clinical diagnosis of malignant tumors. Methods Two researchers finished the literature screen?ing independently,and all the literatures were given the secondary screening according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The included literature data was analyzed by Meta?DiSc 1.4,including heterogeneity test,sensitivity,specificity,diagnostic odds ratio(DOR)and summary receiver operat?ing characteristic(SROC)etc. Results Totally 12 literatures were included in the study finally,including a total of 1 340 subjects consisting of 516 cases with malignant tumor and 824 cases with benign tumor. Heterogeneity inspection results showed that the Spearman correlation coefficient of sensitivity logarithm and(1-specificity)logarithm was-0.343 and there was no threshold effect(P=0.275). DOR curves was Cochran?Q=26.49 (P=0.005 5),indicating the heterogeneity was caused by non threshold effects. Combined statistical quantity was calculated with a random effects model and the results were as followings:the sensitivity was 0.72(95%CI:0.68?0.76,I2=50.1%)and the specificity 0.84(95%CI:0.81?0.86,I2=65.5%). SROC curve drawing,DNA ploidy detection of benign and malignant tumors showed AUC=0.845 3 and Q*=0.776 8. Conclusion FCM DNA heteroploid has a high accuracy for diagnosis of malignant tumor,which can be an important supporting means for the discrimination between benign and malignant tumor.
