OBJECTIVE:To establish a method of microbial limit test for Ofloxacin gel. METHODS:Test sample solutions were prepared by MnSO4,CaCl2 and MgCl2 gelout with different concentrations,the numbers of bacteria and control bacteria were detected by membrane filtration method,and the numbers of molds and yeasts were determined by conventional method. RE-SULTS:The conventional method showed the recoveries of Candida albicaus and Aspergillus niger were more than 70% after not treated by gel breaker;the membrane filtration method showed the recoveries of Escherichia coli,Staphylococcus aurus and Baci-lus subtilis were more than 70% after treated by 5% MnSO4,3% CaCl2 and 1% MgCl2;the membrane filtration method could de-tect the control bacteria after treated by gel breaker. CONCLUSIONS:Gel breaker with appropriate concentrations can effectively eliminate the antibacterial activity of Ofloxacin gel. The established method is suitable for its microbial limit test.

Objective To investigale the quality of life (QOL) and its influenced factors in Tibetan patients with generalized tonic clonic epilepsy.Methods QOL of 126 definit diagnosed Tibetan patients with generalized tonic clonic epilepsy were measured with the QOL in Epilepsy Inventory-31 (QOLIE-31). The influenced factors of QOL were analysed. Results The total score of QOLIE-31 was 48.58?17.29; the lowest subcomponent score was 32.92?22.97 for Seizure Worry ; the highest was 77.11?20.98 for Medication Effects. Single factor analysis results were indicated that the scores of QOL between the different gender, occupation, marital status age,education were remarkable difference(all P

Objective To investigate the relationship between brain natriuretic peptide ( BNP)/ N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide ( NT-proBNP) and New York Heart Association ( NYHA) classification, left ventricular structure and function, and explore the value of BNP/ NT-proBNP in the diagnosis of heart failure in the elderly. Methods Fifty-five elder patients with heart failure were selected (NYHA II, n = 15; NYHA III, n = 25; NYHA IV, n = 15) (heart failure group), and another 16 elder people with NYHA I were served as control group. The plasma mass concentrations of NT-proBNP and BNP were detected by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay and immunofluorescence method, respectively, and the structure and function of left ventricle were examined by echocardiography. Results The levels of plasma BNP and NT-proBNP increased with NYHA grades, were negatively correlated with LVEF (P <0.001), and were positively correlated with LVST, LVEDD, LAD and LVMI( P < 0.05). The area under the curve of BNP in diagnosis of heat failure was 0. 879 (P < 0.001), and that of NT-proBNP was 0.914(P < 0.001). Conclusion Both plasma BNP and NT-proBNP can be used to evaluate the heart function of patients with heart failure, and are useful tools for diagnosis of HF in the elderly.

Objective To observe the correlation between contrast-enhanced sonography and microveesel density (MVD) in peripheral lung tumor.Methods Contrast-enhanced sonography was performed in 55 patients with peripheral lung tumor.Among of them,malignant tumor was 40 cases,benign tumor was 15 cases.Analyzed the quantitative parameters (peak intensity,enhanced strength index) by using time-intensity curve (TIC) with computer.MVD was measured by immunohistochemistry after operation.Results The level of MVD in malignant tumor was significantly higher than that in benign tumor [(24.57 ± 5.93)/HP vs.(15.50 ± 2.82)/HP] (P ＜ 0.05).The level of MVD had significant correlation with peak intensity and enhanced strength index (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions The peak intensity and enhanced strength index have significant correlation with MVD.They are valuable indexes in evaluating angiogenesis in peripheral lung tumor.

Objective To study the feasibility of high performance liquid chromatography-evaporative light scattering detector ( HPLC-ELSD) in quantitative analysis of multi-components ( QAMS) by single marker. Methods Four saponins in Astragali Radix were simultaneously determined by HPLC-ELSD using external standard method, and malonylastragaloside I served as internal standard. The relative correction factors between internal standard and astragaloside Ⅰ, astragaloside Ⅱ and astragaloside Ⅳ were calculated, and the stability was investigated. Results Astragaloside Ⅳ in Astragali Radix was little, while malonylastragalosideⅠand AstragalosideⅠwere abundant.The relative correction factors lacked stability, so ELSD could not be used in QAMS. Conclusion HPLC-ELSD can precisely determine contents of four saponins in Astragali Radix. The detector needs to be further studied when the components have poor ultraviolet absorption such as saponins by QAMS.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the bioequivalence of domestic and imported Fenofibrate capsules in healthy volunteers. METHODS: In double-period crossover study, 18 healthy volunteers received a single oral dose of domestic Fenofibrate capsule 200 mg (test capsule) and imported capsule 200 mg (reference capsule). The content of fenofibric acid in plasma was measured with HPLC. BECS pharmacokinetics program was used to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters and bioavailability and to evaluate the bioequivalence of two preparations. RESULTS: The main pharmacokinetic parameters of domestic Fenofibrate capsule vs. imported Fenofibrate capsule were as follows: t1/2(21.34?3.31) h vs.(21.83?4.35) h, Cmax(7.31?2.65) mg?L-1 vs. (7.28?2.66) mg?L-1, tmax(4.72?0.57) h vs.(4.67?0.59) h, AUC0～72(170.09?54.06) mg?h?L-1 vs. (172.2?54.64) mg?h?L-1, AUC0～∞(188.56?55.27) mg?h?L-1 vs. (192.27?56.62) mg?h?L-1. The relative bioavailability F0～72 and F0～∞ of domestic Fenofibrate capsule were(98.87?6.76)% vs.(98.00?6.72)%, respectively. Non-parameter test of tmax and variance analysis and t-test of Cmax and AUC0～72 showed there was no statistical difference between 2 kinds of Fenofibrate capsules. The 90% confidential intervals of AUC0～72 and Cmax of test capsule were 83.3%～116.9% and 81.1%～124.4%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The domestic and imported Fenofibrate capsules are bioequivalent.

Objective To observe the effects of the re-therapeutic on later stage of sudden deafness.Methods Patients who met the criteria for sudden deafness and showed poor response tO conventional therapy over two months were recruited and assigned randomly for re-therapy.The pure tone audiometry was conducted before and after re-treatment in 103 patients(112 ears).Sodium bicarbonate and dexamethasone were iniected by intravenous drip for two days and batroxobin 5 BU for 6 days.Statistics were made in the effecency of the re-treatment.Results The effective rate of re-treatment group was 46.43% and the difference was significant before and after retreatment(P<0.01).Conclusion Combined use of sodium bicarbonate dexamethasone and batroxobin is effective in re-treating later sudden deafness.

Positive linear correlation was found between TSH level and detection rate of congenital hypothyroidism (CH). When measured with a cut-off point at 9, 10, 15 and 20 mU/L of TSH, the sensitivity of positive detection rate for CH was 99.77%, 96.80%, 81.25% and 71.88%, respectively. TSH > 9 mU/L seems to be a reasonable cut-off value.
