OBJECTIVE:To establish an HPLC method for determination of triamcinolone acetonide(TA), diphenhydramine hydrochloride(DH) and miconazole nitrate(MN) in compound miconazole nitrate cream(MNC). METHODS: The determination was performed on Hypersil ODS2. The mobile phase consisted of methanol-acetonitrile-0.5% ammonium acetate (45∶35∶20) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL?min-1. The UV detection wavelength was 234 nm; the column temperature was 40 ℃ and the inject volume was 20 ?L. RESULTS: The linear ranges for MN, TA and DH were 0.16～0.64 (r=0.999 8), 0.02～0.06 (r=0.999 9) and 0.08～0.24 (r=0.999 2) mg?L-1 respectively, with their average recoveries at 100.0%, 99.6% and 100.7%, RSD at 1.2%, 0.8% and 0.9%(n=3) respectively. CONCLUSION: The HPLC method can be used for the simultaneous determination of the three constituents in CMNC.

To prepare decalcified bone matrix particles(DBMP)with adriamycin(ADM) impregnated bone cement(BC) drug delivery system(DDS), its drug delivery characteristics were studied and analysed in vivo. DBMP were made according to the methods of Urist et al. ADM was putting into DBMP by vacuum absorption and freeze drying techniques. Then the DBMP with ADM were impregnated into BC in 1∶1 to form DDS. The DDS was implanted into the greater trochanter of femur in rabbits and the release test was done in vivo. The DDS could gradually release ADM for over 12 weeks in local bone tissues, maintained stable release for 4 weeks. The maximum ADM in local bone tissues was 29 times higher than that of the same intrarenous dose, while the maximum ADM in plasma was only 1/10 of the same intravenous dose. The DDS has a good sustained release function, and can meet the needs of local chemotherapy for limb salvage treament of bone tumor.

Objective To study the relationship of microinflammation,nutrition and common carotid artery intima-media thickness(CCA-IMT) for the early prevention and interference of ischemic stroke. Methods(CCA-IMT was) measured by carotid arterial ultrasound in 250 elderly subjects.The levels of serum high-sensitivity C-(reactive) protein(hsCRP),ferritin,albumin,pre-albumin and transferrin were assayed at the same time.According to the results of CCA-IMT,all the subjects were divided into five groups:

Objective To assess prevalence and risk factors of illness within the past 2 weeks among rural residents in Menglian,under the background of essential public health service implemented generally. Methods In February 2012, the questionnaire method was employed to investigate the two-week morbidity in 2011 rural residents sampled by multistage stratified random sampling from Menglian population. Results The prevalence, that of illness within two-week among 2011 rural residents in Menglian, was 97.5‰ (95%CI 84.5‰-110.5‰) . It was lower than that of the rural region IV in China (149.6‰, <0.05) .Its age trend was the same as that of the rural region IV in China,the prevalence in 0-14 years old children,however,was higher than the counterpart in the rural region IV in China. The diseases, which two-week morbidity ranked the top five, were acute upper respiratory infection, acute gastroenteritis, hyperostosis, acute tracheobronchitis and rheumatoid arthritis. The results of multilevel logistic regression model fitted by group-level explanatory variable mountainous area, individual-level random slopes variable gender and other individual background variables indicated that there were across-level interactions between mountainous area and gender ( <0.05), the family income lower than RMB 15000 (odds ration 3.2378, 95%CI 1.9014-5.5130) and age (odds ration 1.0163, 95%CI 1.0002-1.0327) had a positive effect to two-week morbidity, and contrasting to unmarried, married had a negative effect to two-week morbidity (odds ratio 0.4727, 95%CI 0.2534-0.8819) . Conclusions Comparing with that of the rural region IV in China before implementing essential public health service, the two-week morbidity in Menglian was lower. For further elevating the health level of population, the strategies, such as intensifying material and child hygiene in the mountain area, improving sanitary conditions of low income family, and updating health consciousness in single population,would be implemented.

Objective To analyze the clinical and ultrasonic features of primary squamous cell carcinoma of the thyroid(PSCCT)and diagnostic value of ultrasonography (US) in PSCCT in order to improve the cognition of PSCCT.Methods The clinical data and ultrasonic characters of 5 patients with PSCCT confirmed by pathology post surgery were retrospectively reviewed.Results The average age of the 5 patients was 62 years (range from 46 to 79).All of 5 patients with PSCCT were presented with a painless neck mass in clinical palpation examination.Of them,2 patients had different degrees of difficulty in breathing and swallowing,2 patients had hoarseness.Four of 5 patients had died after surgery with average survival time of 9.5 months.On US,the size of lesions was large(a maximum diameter of 2.9-5.5 cm),all of 5 lesions appeared as single solid mixed-echogenicity mass including irregular lamellate marked hypoechoic region,with irregular margin and undefined boundary.Of them,2 lesions presented with lobulated,only 1 lesion exhibited microcalcification and another 4 lesions had no calcification,3 lesions exhibited a? sign of breakthrough thyroid envelope.Color Doppler flow imaging showed few blood flow (3/5) and moderate blood flow (2/5),a higher vascular resistance spectrum was detected in 4 lesions (RI 0.72-0.88).Three patients exhibited suspicious cervical lymph nodes.Conclusions The characteristic ultrasonic appearance combined with the clinical features enables a confident preoperative diagnosis of PSCCT.

Objective To investigate the level of serum angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) in normal subjects and patients with obesity and newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM),and to explore the relationship of serum ANGPTL4 with parameters of body fat,glucose-lipid metabolism,and insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR).Methods A total of 160 subjects with normal glucose regulation(NGR) and newly-diagnosed T2DM,were divided into 4 groups:NGR with normal weight group (NGR-NW),NGR with overweight/obese group (NGROW/OB),T2DM with normal weight group (T2DM-NW),and T2DM with overweight/obesity group (T2DM-OW/ OB) according to their body mass index(BMI).ELISA was used to determine the level of serum ANGPTL4.The weight,height,waist circumference,hip circumference,waist hip ratio(WHR),and BMI,fasting insulin(FINS),lipid metabolism parameters,and insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) were measured.Results Compare with the NGR group,the level of ANGPTL4 was significantly decreased in the T2DM group [(25.75 ±2.85 vs 31.08 ±3.35)ng/ml,P＜0.01],the level of ANGPTL4 in OW/OB group was significantly lower than that in the NW group [(27.27± 3.05 vs 29.04 ± 4.64) ng/ml,P＜0.01].Partial correlation analysis showed that serum ANGPTL4 was negatively correlated with BMI,WHR,FPG,2hPG,HbA1C,FINS,HOMA-IR,AST,ALT,and TG levels(P＜0.01),but positively correlated with the HDL-C(P＜0.01).Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that HbA1C,FINS,and HDL-C were independent risk factors of serum ANGPTL4 (β =-0.825,-0.119,3.301,P＜0.01).Conclusion Serum ANGPTL4 level in T2DM and OW/OB group was lower than that in NGR and NW group.Serum ANGPTL4 is associated with FINS and lipid metabolism,suggesting that it may play an important role in the pathophysiology of obesity and metabolic syndrome.

Objective To investigate the variation of lipid profile in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) of different age groups.Methods Total 1214 patients of AMI were admitted to our hospital from May 2007 to July 2011.The age of patients ranged 40-89 years,and patients were divided into 5 age groups with 10-years step.Differences in lipid levels were observed by using pair-wise comparison among different age groups.Results Pair-wise comparisons among different age groups indicated that TC levels were higher in 40-69 years age groups [(4.71 ± 1.08),(4.80 ± 1.30),(4.69 ± 1.03) mmol/L,respectively] than those in the 70-89 age groups [(4.41 ± 0.96),(4.38 ± 1.03) mmol/L],all P ＜ 0.05(t values were 2.381,2.323,4.382,3.965,3.317,3.096).TG levels among three age groups ＜ 59 years had no significant difference,which were higher than those in groups over 60 years.Among 50-89 years age groups,TG gradually reduced with increase of age.HDL levels were lower in 40-59 years age groups [(1.03 ± 0.23),(1.05 ± 0.26) mmol/L,respectively] than those in 60-89 years age groups [(1.11 ±0.28),(1.11±0.28),(1.16±0.34) mmol/L,respectively],allP＜0.05 (t values were-2.777,-2.789,-3.731,-2.543,-2.566,-3.644).Total cholesterol (TC) (r =-0.123,P ＜0.01),lowdensity lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL) (r =-0.139,P ＜ 0.01) and triglyceride (TG) (r =-0.287,P ＜0.01) were negatively but high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) (r =0.125,P ＜ 0.01) was positively correlated with age of patients.TC levels in female patients were higher than those in male patients in 50-89 years age groups; LDL levels in female patients were higher than those in male patients in 50-69 years age groups and HDL levels in female patients were higher than those in male patients in 40-79 years age groups (all P ＜ 0.05,t values were-2.878,-3.007,-3.352,-3.333).Conclusions Results show that the non-elderly AMI patients (＜60 years) have higher levels of TC,LDL and TG,and lower level of HDL than the elderly patients; the TC,LDL and HDL levels are higher in female AMI patients than those in male patients at the same age groups.

Objective To assess the implementation of essential public health services (EPHS), and determine the main influencing factors for EPHS in Menglian. Methods In September 2012, the questionnaire survey method was employed to collect the data of EPHS implementation in 2011 in three community medical institutes and the EPHS evaluation of health staff sampled by stratified random sampling in Menglian. Results In 2011, the report rates of infectious diseases epidemics, public health emergencies and health inspection were all 100%, the inoculation rates of most vaccines were over 90%,and the health management rates of the children aged 0 to 6 years,pregnant and lying-in woman,aged population,hypertensives, type 2 diabetes patients and serious psychotics were high (about 85%) . The establishment rate of heath archives (60%to 70%),the controlling rates of blood pressure in the hypertensive population (about 50%), the rates of glycemic control in type 2 diabetes patients (55%to 70%) and the steady rates of serious psychotics (50% to 60%), however, were low. The implementation of EPHS was unbalance among towns, suburbs and outer suburbs. The main factors that influenced the EPHS implementation were inadequate human resources, insufficient or unused health devices, ambiguous responsibilities among the health institutes, non-cooperative behaviors, and unhealthy living habits in rural residents. Conclusions The implementation of many EPHS items is good. For promoting EPHS,it is necessary to train human resources,activiate unused health devices,get support of residents and carry out health education.

Objective To study the effects of HMG CoA reductase inhibitor, lovastatin (LOV), on the proliferation of human breast cancer cell MCF 7 and the role of intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca 2+ ]i) in this event. Methods After treated with LOV at the dosages of 4, 8 and 16 ?mol/L for 1-3 d respectively, the proliferation of MCF 7 cells was examined with MTT, and the distributions of cell cycles with FCM assay. Meanwhile, the change of [Ca 2+ ]i of MCF 7 cells was observed with laser scanning confocal microscopy, and the expression of plasma membrane calcium ATPase isoform 1 (PMCA1) mRNA with RT PCR. Results Lovastatin, inhibited the proliferation of MCF 7 cells and arrested MCF 7 cells in the G 0/G 1 phase of cell cycle, in a dose and time dependent manner. However, apoptosis of LOV treated MCF 7 cells was not obvious. Simultaneously, LOV increased [Ca 2+ ]i of MCF 7 cells, but didn't change the expression of PMCA1 mRNA. Conclusion The results suggest that LOV has the capabilities of inhibiting the proliferation of MCF 7 cells and arresting them in G 0/G 1 phase. These effects of LOV maybe correlate with LOV changing the function of PMCA1and increasing [Ca 2+ ]i of MCF 7 cells.
