Objective To establish a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric ( LC-MS/MS ) for determination of clopidogrel in human plasma and stability of clopidogrel under different conditions,which was used subsequently to investigate the pharmacokinetics of clopidogrel in healthy Chinese volunteers. Methods Clopidogrel-d4 hydrogen sulfate was used as an internal standard. Separation was achieved on a WATERS Xterra? RP18 column (4.6 mm× 100 mm,3.5μm) with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid (66:34) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL.min-1 within 3.2 min. ESI source was applied and operated in positive ion mode and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). Plasma samples were pretreated by acetonitrile precipitation. Results A good linearity of clopidogrel was obtained in the concentration range of ( 5-5 000 ) ng.L-1. The lower limit of quantification was 5 ng.L-1. The intra-and inter-run precisions at three quality control levels were within 1.3%–9.9%,the relative deviation of the assay was within -6.2%-14.3%. The blood samples were stable when chilled with crushed ice ( 0℃) and cold water ( 4℃) ,as well as kept at room temperature ( 20℃) for 40 min. The plasma QC samples were stable at room temperature ( 20 ℃) for 4 h,at -70℃ for 38 days and during three freeze-thaw cycles. Hemolysis in blood sample drawn didn’ t affect the plasma concentration. The determination and the result of incurred sample reanalysis met the requirements. Conclusion A specific, rapid, sensitive and stable LC-MS/MS method is developed and validated for determination of clopidogrel in human plasma. The method is proven to be suitable for study of the pharmacokinetics of clopidogrel in healthy Chinese volunteers after a single oral dose of 75 mg clopidogrel hydrogen sulphate tablet.

Objective To compare the displayed inner diameter of coronary stent by high definition(HD)and gem?stone spectral imaging(GSI)using dynamic cardiac and coronary artery phantom. Methods Five different types of coro?nary stents(internal diameter, 3.10 mm±0.55 mm;strut thickness, 0.12 mm±0.04 mm)were placed into a pulsating cardiac phantom(ALPHA 1-VT PC, Fuyo Corporation, Japan). The stent phantom was scanned by 3 systems, gemstone spectral im?aging(GSI), spiral scan(S)and HD. All the spectral imaging data were analyzed using GSI viewer to reconstruct the VMS (monochromic spectral) images(60-140 keV). Image noise(N), signal-to-noise ratio(SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR) and inner diameter were compared between images acquired through these 3 systems. Results SNRs in images of S and HD were higher than that of GSI(P<0.05),while there were no significant differences in CNRs among images of GSI, S and HD(P>0.05). The visible diameter(%)measurements of HD(0.85 ± 0.06)was significant higher than that of the other 2 scan systems and most close to the width of those stent’s actual size.(GSI:0.40±0.16, 0.48±0.13, 0.50±0.14, 0.51±0.13, 0.45±0.05,0.52±0.13, 0.53±0.13, 0.53±0.13, 0.53±0.13, S:0.53±0.14, P<0.05). Conclusion There was no significant dif?ferences in image quality among the images acquired by these 3 systems when the heart rate was set to 60 beats per min. Comparing to GSI and S, HD can produce best represent images to the known inner diameter of coronary stent.

To investigate the mechanism of electroacupuncturein treating chronic fatigue syndrome(CFS) in term of the neuro-endocrine system by observing the regulative effect of EA on hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal index (HPA index) and corticotropin releasing hormone mRNA (CRH mRNA) in CFS model rats. Methods: The rats were randomly divided into control group, model group, and electroacupuncture group. Model and electroacupuncture groups were forced to swim in cold water to make CFS model, while rats in electroacupuncture group were treated with electroacupuncture treatment at the same time. Electroacupuncture group was given at Baihui(GV 20) and Zusanli(ST 36). Evaluation of the model was processed according to the behavior changes of the rats. Hypothalamic, pituitary, and adrenal were weighted to calculate HPA index. CRH mRNA in hypothalamic was measured by fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (FQPCR). Results: The model rats had behavior changes,and both physical and mental fatigue was observed. HPA index raised and expression of CRH mRNA in hypothalamus increased in CFS rats. After electroacupuncture treatment, the physical and mental fatigue was improved, and the hypothalamic index and CRH mRNA decreased significantly, while the pituitary and adrenal index only had little decrease. Conclusion: Cold water swim press could mimic the pathogenesis and make similar manifestations in rats with the common clinical symptoms. CFS has close relationship with increase of HPA index and CRH mRNA expression. Electroacupuncture can regulate the function of HPA axis to deal with CFS.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of benign and malignant breast tumors with 2D and color Doppler ultrasound, and to assess the value of color Doppler ultrasound in the diagnosis of breast cancer. Methods A total of 674 patients (327 malignant and 347 benign) of breast tumor underwent 2D and color Doppler ultrasonogarphy. Two-dimensional ultrasound was used to observe the size, form, margin and internal echo of the tumors;color Doppler was performed to observe the degree of blood flow signal in the tumor, and to measure peak systolic velocity (PSV) and resistance index (RI). Results Totally 671 patients were diagnosed with ultrasound. The size of the tumors were from 0.50 cm×0.41 cm to 5.42 cm×4.10 cm. The ratio of vertical and transverse diameter of 69.11% (226/327) of the malignant tumors ≥1.0. Most tumors (266/327, 81.35%) presented with irregular margin like incised or feet of crab;61.47% (201/327) had microcalcification. Color Doppler found that 92.97% (304/327) of the tumors had blood flow signal;PSV was 15.34-39.76 cm/s, RI was 0.65-0.98, and 91.61% (262/286)≥0.70. Significant differences of the ratio of vertical and transverse diameter, the margin of the tumor, microcalcification and blood flow signal, PSV and RI (P＜0.01) were found between benign and malignant breast tumors. Conclusion The diagnosis and differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors can be significantly improved with comprehensive analysis of 2D ultrasound, blood flow signal, PSV and RI. Color Doppler ultrasound plays an important role in the diagnosis of breast cancer.
