Object To apply microwave technique to the extraction of free anthraquinones from Rheum emodi Wall. and the methods of microwave extraction and traditional extraction were comparied. Methods The orthogonal test design was used to arrange sequent experiments to test the effect of the three main factors including microwave power, particle size of herb and extraction time on the extraction efficiency of free anthraquinones and to establish optimal extraction process. A parallel test was carried out using the three different methods including the optimal extraction process, the traditional decocting method and the alcohol refluxing method. Results Particle size of herb and microwave power are the significant factors with P

AIM: To optimize and establish the extraction techn ology of water-soluble polysaccharides from Ulva pertusa. TLC was employed to determine the mainly neutral sugars in the Ulvan. METHODS: The orthogonal test was employed to test the effects of th e four factors including volume of water, temperature of extraction, time of ext raction and pH of water on the yield and total carbohydrate contents of water-s oluble polysaccharides from Ulva pertusa and optimize the extraction technol ogy. Five groups of parallel tests were carried out by the optimum parameters es tablished and the sugar constituents of products were analyzed by TLC. RESULTS: Temperature of extraction and time of extraction have sign ificant effects on the extraction yield of water-soluble polysaccharides from Ulva pertu sa, but, for total carbohydrate content, only temperature of extraction was a significant factor. The mainly neutral sugars were composed of rhamnose, xylose and glucose. CONCLUSION: The optimum extraction technology was A 1B 3C 3D 3 when the yield and total carbohydrate content were considered as preferential pa rameters.

Objective To analyze the property of natural polysaccharides(P) from Porphyra haitanensis T. J. Chang et B. F. Zheng and its degraded polysaccharides(P3),and to investigate their effects on proliferation of lymphocytes. Methods P3 and P were identified by IR spectra. Their effects on immunological function were studied by cell culture technique. Results P3 and P displayed significant effects on promoting the proliferation of T-lymphocytes,and had inhibitory effects on the proliferation of B-lymphocytes in a dose-dependent manner. The effects of P3 were more powerful than P. Conclusion The degraded and natural polysaccharides from Porphyra haitanensis(P3 and P) can regulate the proliferation of lymphocytes,which may be related to their molecular weights.

Objective To improve the recognization of bilateral adrenal tumors from different tissues and to discuss the treatment.Methods One case of bilateral adrenal tumors from different tissues:pheochromocytoma in one side and adrenocortical adenoma in the other side was reported and the data of syptoms,physical features,auxillary examination,diagnosis and treatment were retrospectively reviewed.Results The patient was diagnosed as adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) -independent Cushing's syndrome in other hospital and received laparoscopic adrenalectomy for right adrenal tumor.During the operation the blood pressure fluctuated seriously and was even more than 200 mm Hg.The pathological report showed the mass was pheochromocytoma.After the operation,the patient's clinical manifcstation was not changed.Half a year later the lab test showed blood ACTH was still less than 5 pg/ml,24 h urinary-free cortisol (UFC) was 571.32 μg,and 24 h urinary catecholamines (U CA) was:noradrenalin (NE) 22.80 μg,epinephrine (E) 2.55 μg,dopamine (DA) 92.92 μg.CT detected a mass in left adrenal gland.The patient received laparoscopic adrenalectomy for left adrenal tumor after being transferred to Peking Union Medical College Hospital.The tumor was proved as adrenocortical adenoma by postoperational pathology.One week after the operation,the 24 h UFC was 56.2 μg.Conclusions Bilateral adrenal tumors from different tissues are very rare in clinic.Adrenalectomy for tumors from both sides and remaining the normal adrenal glands are recommended.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of weight gain in women with schizophrenia after treatment.Methods From January 2016 to December 2016,180 patients with schizophrenia who admitted to the Second People′s Hospital of Lishui for the first time and were treated with antipsychotics (APD) were followed up at hospital and 4 months after discharge.The height,weight and body mass index were observed.The joint general situation questionnaire,brief psychiatric scale(BPRS),negative symptoms(SANS),positive symptom scale(SAPS) and the clinical curative effect overall rating scale subscales of overall curative effect (CGI-GI) were comprehensively evaluated.The data were analyzed statistically.Results The weight gain was related to the type of antipsychotics (χ2=37.3,P<0.01),and the effect of aripiprazole and ziprasidone on body weight was significantly less than that in the case of weight(χ2=31.1,P<0.01).Single factor analysis showed that a medication time correlation (F=4.92,P<0.05),and each point GⅠscore had no correlation with weight gain,and weight gain was associated with BPRS,SAPS subtraction score at discharge (r=0.079,0.092,all P<0.01),and during follow-up weight gain was correlated with SANS score reduction (r=-0.063,-0.086,P<0.05 or P<0.01).Stepwise regression analysis showed that at the alpha=0.05 level,entered the regression equation factors in the order : APD types,maximum doses and taking the product of time,the negative symptoms,the best functional level at 1 year before disease.Conclusion It is important to control the weight gain of young women.The mediating role of diet and activity should not be underesti-mated.Appropriate APD was chosen to adjust the maintenance treatment strategy as appropriate,improve the negative symptoms and improve the level of individual social function as the main intervention measure .

Objective:To compare the outcomes of low-dose-rate prostate brachytherapy (BT) and radical prostatectomy (RP) in patients with T 1c-T 3a prostate cancer. Methods:A group of 745 patients with T 1c-T 3a prostate cancer between January 2010 and August 2017 at Peking Union Medical College Hospital were identified. The records of these patients, who were followed up for a minimum of 2 years, were reviewed. 384 cases received BT. Their characters included age(72.1±6.6), tPSA (12.4±6.1) ng/ml, prostate volume (33.6±13.8) ml, Gleason grade group (2.0±1.2). In this group, T 1c-T 2a stage was diagnosed in 189 cases, T 2b-T 2c stage in 182 cases and T 3a stage in 13 cases.361 cases received RP. Their characters included age(65.7±6.2), tPSA(12.6±6.4) ng/ml, prostate volume (37.2±17.8) ml, Gleason grade group (1.9±1.2). In this group, T 1c-T 2a stage was diagnosed in 177 cases, T 2b-T 2c stage in 170 cases and T 3a stage in 14 cases.The log-rank test compared survival rates between the two modalities, and Cox regression identified factors associated with bRFS. Results:Median follow-up was 60 months. Kaplan-Meier analysis did not show any statistically significant differences in terms of cRFS( P=0.321), cancer specific survival (CSS, P=0.643) and overall survival (OS, P=0.565) rate between the two groups. BT was associated with improved bRFS compared to RP( P=0.018). Risk of biochemical recurrence was significantly lower with BT compared with RP in the patients with a biopsy Gleason grade group 2 and 3 ( P=0.008), or prostate volume ≤35 ml ( P=0.027), or tPSA ≤10 ng/ml ( P=0.013), or the clinical T stages of T 2b and T 2C( P=0.031), or in the intermediate-risk group according to NCCN risk classification ( P=0.003). On multivariate analysis of all 745 patients, age≤ 70 and T stage≥T 2b was associated with significantly shorter bRFS. Conclusions:BT produced equivalent cRFS, CSS and OS compared to RP, while it was associated with improved bRFS. BT On multivariate analysis of all 745 patients, age≤ 70 and T stage≥T 2b was associated with significantly lower bRFS.
