OBJECTIVE:To establish the ultraviolet visible spectrophotometry(UV-VIS)for the determination of Fe content in iron dextran preparations.METHODS:Under the acidic condition,Fe~(3+)was dissociated from iron dextran solution by heating,then Fe~(3+)was deoxidized into Fe~(2+)by hydroxylamine hydrochloride,and red Fe~(2+)-orthophenanthroline complex was formed through combination with o-phenanthroline.The content of the Fe~(2+)-orthophenanthroline complex was determined by UV-VIS at a wavelength of 510 nm.RESULTS:The linear range of Fe~(2+)was 0.5～4.0?g?mL~(-1)(r=0.999 9). The average recoveries of two preparations(tablets and injection)of iron dextran were 99.8%(RSD=0.52%)and 99.7% (RSD=0.44%),respectively.CONCLUSION:The UV-VIS method is simple,accurate in results and applicable for the determination of iron dextran preparations.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of bortezomib combined with dexamethasone and thalidomide in the treatment of autologous stem cell transplantation ( ASCT) in multiple myeloma ( MM) . Methods The randomized con-trolled trials ( RCTs) on combined therapy with bortezomib,dexamethasone and thalidomide for ASCT in MM were retrieved from Pubmed,Medline,the Cochrane Library,CNKI,VIP and Wanfang databases (published until December 2014).The method of the Cochrane systematic review was used to evaluate the quality of the included RCTs and the Review Manager 5.3.5 software was em-ployed for Meta-analysis. Results Five RCTs involving 1 271 patients were included.The meta analysis results showed that the complete remission ( CR) rate,near-CR rate and total effective rate were significantly higher after combined treatment with borte-zomib,dexamethasone and thalidomide when compared with those in other combination therapies [CR+nCR, RR=1.50,95%CI (1.16,1.94),P=0.002;the total effective rate,RR=1.13,95%CI (1.03,1.24),P=0.009].In terms of safety,the grade 3/4 ad-verse events were significantly increased in the group of combined therapy with bortezomib,dexamethasone and thalidomide [ RR=1.29,95%CI (1.05,1.59),P=0.02]. Conclusion Bortezomib combined with thalidomide and dexamethasone for the treat-ment of ASCT in MM can significantly improve the CR+nCR and the total effective rate,but it also increases the incidence of the overall adverse events at the same time.

Stroke is a cerebrovascular disease type with high morbidity and mortality,of which ischemic stroke accounts for about 80％.Now,it is believed that the inflammatory mechanisms play an important role in the progress of pathological physiology of ischemic stroke.Peripheral T lymphocytes infiltrate to the damaged area within 24 hours after cerebral ischemia and are involved in the advance of inflammatory process of brain tissue.As a subtype of T lymphocytes,regulatory T cells are mainly located in the ischemic penumbra; however,at present,its role in ischemic brain injury remains controversial.The research on the mechanisms of regulatory T cells in ischemic stroke may contribute to further understanding of the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke and find new therapeutic targets.

OBJECTIVE:To try to establish a combined serum-pharmacology and electrophysiology method for the study of mechanism of chuanxiong extract in dilatating coronary artery.METHODS:Chuanxiong extract was intragastrically given to rats and mice,then the serum contents of tetramethylpyrazine(TMP)were determined by HPLC,which provided data for electrophysiological study.The action of chuanxiong extract on Ca 2+ -activated K channel(Kca)of smooth muscle of coronary artery in pigs was studied by patch clamp technique.RESULTS:The calibration curve of TMP was linear in the range of0.216～54?g/ml(r=0.9999).The recovery was100.7%～102.4%.The serum concentrations of TMP in rats and mice were(3.56?3.01)and(8.19?6.57)?g/ml respectively.The chuanxiong extract could not markedly activate the Kca of smooth muscle of coronary artery in patch clamp study.CONCLUSION:The established method for TMP determination is feasible and relieable.In order to improve the combined electrophysiology and serum pharmacology technique,high quality medical materials should be adopted and the bioavailability improved.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a RP-HPLC method to determinate the plasma concentration of paclitaxel in tumor patients.METHODS:Paclitaxel was extracted from plasma with organic phase(ethyl-acetate)by two-step extraction on Tianhe Kromasil C18 column(250 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m)with a mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-methanol-water(40∶25∶40)at a flow rate of 1 mL?min-1.The detective wavelength was set at 227 nm and the column temperature was maintained at 35 ℃.RESULTS:The linear range of paclitaxel was 0.05～5.00 mg?L-1(r=0.999 7)with average recovery rate at 98.75%～100.44%.Both intra-day RSD and inter-day RSD were less than 5%(n=5).The plasma concentration-time profile in 11 patients after iv infusion of paclitaxel was in line with a two-compartment model.CONCLUSION:This established method is simple,accurate,reproducible and applicable for clinical determination of blood drug concentration and pharmacokinetic studies.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of China-made remifentanil in a randomized, controlled and double-blinded multi-center clinical study. Methods Two hundred and one patients were randomly divided into two groups: control group received intravenous fentanyl and study group received intravenous remifentanil. In both groups anesthesia was induced with propofol 1-2 mg ?kg-1 and fentanyl 2.5?g/kg or remifentanil 2 ?g/kg. Intubation was facilitated with succinylcholine 1.0-1.5 mg?kg-1. The patients were mechanically ventilated(VT 8-10 ml?kg-1 , RR 10 bpm) . Anesthesia was maintained with fentanyl at 0.03 ?g?kg-1?min-1 or 0.2?g?kg-1?min-1 supplemented with 66% N2O and intermittent iv boluses of vecuronium. The efficacy variables recorded were the changes in blood pressure(BP) and heart rate(HR) during surgical stimulation and the quality of anesthesia. The safety variables included BP and HR, the doses of ephedrine, atropine, urapidil and naloxone required during surgery, the volume of intraoperative blood loss, changes in EGG, and the pre- and post-operative liver and kidney function, extubation time, emergence time (opening eyes when the patient's name is being called), end-tidal CO2 before extubation, admission to PACU or ICU, and the unexpected events in postoperative period. Results The anesthetic efficacy of remifentanil was similar to that of fentanyl with better analgesic effect . Remifentanil wore off faster in comparable doses. Conclusion China-made remifentanil is a good and safe anesthetic with better analgesic effect.
