OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for simultaneous determination of andrographlide and dehydroandrographolide in Ganmaoqing tablet. METHODS:HPLC was performed on the column of Thermo BDS C18 with mobile phase of mathanol-water at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min,detection wavelength was 225 nm for andrographlide and 254 nm for dehydroandrographolide,col-umn temperature was 30 ℃,and injection volume was 10 μl. RESULTS:The linear range was 2.25-45.00 μg/ml for andrographlide (r=0.9998) and 1.00-20.00 μg/ml for dehydroandrographolid(r=0.9990);RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were no more than 0.8%;average recoveries were 96.96%-99.80%(n=9) and 96.79%-100.65%(n=9). CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,accurate and reliable,and can be used for the quality control of andrographlide and dehydroandrographolide in Ganmaoqing tablet.

BACKGROUND:Previous research has demonstrated that preoperative hormone therapy relieved clinicaI and pathological stages of prostatic carcinoma patients,reduced positive ratio of incisaI margin:however,it did not increase disease-free surviva J rate.Worth of preoperative hormone therapy for prostatic carcinoma remains unclear.OBJECTIVE:To assess the role of preoperative hormone therapy in localised prostate cancer.METHODS:Articles were searched from PubMed,Embase.Cochrane Library(No.4,2009),Chinese biomedicaf literature database,Chinese Scientific Journals full_text database,and Chinese Journal full-text database(published before October,2009).Randomized controlled trials which were diagnosed as Iocalised prostate cancer using pathology and cytology were included The sex and nationality were not limited.and patients did not have severe heart and lung diseases Prostatic carcinoma which occurred Later or repeatedly was excluded.Otherwise.randomized controlled trails which were coincidence with the inclusion criteria were also included.Review Manager 5.0 published by Cochrane was used for stafistical analysis.Overall survival rate.disease-free survivaI rate,positive surgical margin rate,positive lymph node rate.and seminal vesicle invasion rate were evaluated.RESULTS AND CONCLUSlON:Six randomized controlled trials totaling 1 027 padicipants were included.The result of meta analysis showed that there was no significant difference in overall surviva J rate[RR=0.94,95%C,(0.86,1.02)],disease-free survival rate[RR=1.02,95%CI(0.89,1.17)],positive lymph node rate IRR=0.86,95%CI(0.47,1.57)],and seminal vesicle invasion rate[RR=1.09,95%CI(0.74,1.59)]between single prostatectomy and preoperative hormone therapy plus prostatectomy,while there was significant difference in positive surgical margin rate[RR=0.46,95%CI(0.32,0.66)]This suggested that preoperative hormonal therapy prior to prostatectomy did not improve survival rate,positive lymph nodes rate and seminaI vesicle invasion rate:however.there was a significant reduction in the positive surgicaI margin rate.

To develop simple, rapid, and efficacious diagnostic methods for malaria is one of the remaining key tasks for malaria control. Previously, we have created a phage-displayed antibody library against Plasmodium falciparum. Six clones of antibody with good reactivity to HRP-II in ELISA were isolated from the library after 3 rounds of enrichment. Soluble ScFvs were produced and the characteristics were determined. The results of Western blot showed that they could bind to HRP-II specifically and had a relative molecular mass(Mr) about 31 000. The work provided a solid fund for diagnostic kit development for malaria.

OBJECTIVE: To construct a system of therapeutic effect evaluation for patients with primary liver cancer according to the theory of syndrome differentiation in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), and to examine its reliability. METHODS: Analytic hierarchy process and 100 mm surveyor's rod method were applied to obtain bottom layer and top level syndromes, which were used to construct the method of therapeutic effect evaluation, and its reliability was verified in clinical practice by comparing with some evaluation criteria in Western medicine, such as cancer severity scale; Karnofsky performance scale; Child-Pugh classification, cancer staging classification, and quality of life scale, etc. RESULTS: A system of therapeutic effect evaluation was constructed, and it could reflect the progress of tumor, changes of hepatic function and constitution. The evaluation scores acquired from the system were highly associated with the quality of life of the patients. CONCLUSION: The system of therapeutic effect evaluation can reflect the severity of disease and the characteristics of TCM treatment.

BACKGROUND: There are many in vitro selection method of sperm, and swim-up and density gradient centrifugation are commonly used. It remains unclear which method minimizes bad stimulation to the sperm and select sperm with high fertilization potential. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of swim-up and gradient centrifugation preparation techniques on intrauterine insemination (IUI).METHODS: A computer-based online search of Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE databases was performed, and some related journals were manually searched for related articles published between January 1966 and February 2009. The quality of included randomized controlled trials (RCT) and q-randomized trials (Q-RCT) was evaluated and Meta-analysis was conducted by the Cochrane Collaboration's software RevMan5.0. Experts.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A total of 6 studies were included, involving 4 RCTs and 2 Q-RCTs. A total of 486 patients (1 099 IUI cycles) were enrolled. The Meta-analysis indicated that there was no difference between swim-up and gradient centrifugation preparation techniques for the IUI in terms of cycle pregnancy rates [OR = 1.11, 95%CI(0.8,1.55)], miscarriage rates [OR = 0.31, 95%CI(0.09,1.04)], sperm count [the weight mean difference (WMD) =-0.89, 95%CI(-14.17,12.38)], sperm motility [WMD = -2.31, 95%CI(-7.27,2.65)]. There is insufficient evidence to confirm which is the best method in the two specific preparation techniques. The quality of study methods should be improved. And more measure parameters should be included when comparing it before or after treatment, such as sperm motility, sperm count, sperm function.

Objective:To analyze clinical data of 3 children with LMX1B-associated disease characterized by asymptomatic glomerular proteinuria, thus improving the recognition of asymptomatic proteinuria with genetic causes. Methods:Three patients with LMX1B-associated disease presented with prominent asymptomatic proteinuria diagnosed by the next-generation sequencing in Department of Pediatrics, Peking University First Hospital from April 2014 to October 2017 were included in this study.Clinical data, including renal and extrarenal manifestations, renal biopsy, and family history, were collected and retrospectively analyzed. Results:All 3 children were girls, the age of onset were 2 years, 1 year, and 4 years, respectively, and the diagnosis age were 11 years, 5 years and 6 years, respectively.All of them had glomerular proteinuria, and nephrotic-level proteinuria occurred in one patient.Microscopic hematuria was found in 2 patients.All of them had normal renal function.Only one patient underwent renal biopsy.Electron microscopy of the first time of biopsy revealed segmental thinning of the glomerular basement membrane.Re-biopsy 4 years later showed irregular thickening of the glomerular basement membrane, moth-eaten appearance and collagen fibrillar material deposition.No abnormalities of nails, limbs and joints were observed by physical examination.Two patients had a family history of renal disease.Conclusions:Genetic factors should be considered in children with obscure onset asymptomatic proteinuria without definite clinical causes.Genetic testing can help diagnose and guide treatment as early as possible.

To Track the source of the infection through an investigation of a clustering of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19), and provide scientific basis and Strategy for the effective control of the aggregated epidemic situation of COVID-19. Field epidemiological method was used to survey the cases and related close contacts in a family clustering epidemic of COVID-19 in Dandong city of Liaoning Province. We obtained survey data for a descriptive analysis.Real time RT-PCR technique was used to detect 2019-nCoV nucleic acid in samples collected from cases and related close contacts combined with serum specific antibody detection. A total of 3 confirmed cases and 2 asymptomatic infection cases were discovered in the clustering epidemic, with 34 close contacts.Of eight close family contacts visiting from other province, one patient was on the same flight as the confirmed case, and her antibody IgG was positive. The family clustering was caused by past infection case who visited her friend through Wuhan from other provinces to local area.

Objective:To investigate the application value of augmented reality navigation combined with indocyanine green(ICG) fluorescence imaging technology in laparoscopic anatomical segment 8 liver resection.Methods:Clinical and pathological data from 8 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma located in segment 8 of the liver admitted to the First Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery,Zhujiang Hospital,Southern Medical University from October 2021 to October 2022 were collected restrospectively. Among them,there were 5 males and 3 females,aged between 40 and 72 years. During the operation,the self-developed laparoscopic augmented reality surgical navigation system was used to integrate the three-dimensional liver model with the laparoscopic scene,and ICG fluorescence imaging technology was used to guide the anatomical liver resection of segment 8. The predicted liver resection volume and actual liver resection volume,related surgical indicators and postoperative complications were analyzed.Results:Among the 8 patients, 4 underwent laparoscopic anatomical segment 8 liver resection,1 underwent laparoscopic anatomical ventral subsegment of segment 8 liver resection,2 underwent laparoscopic anatomical ventral subsegment combined with medial subsegment of segment 8 liver resection, and 1 underwent laparoscopic anatomical dorsal subsegment of segment 8 liver resection. All operations were completed under the guidance of augmented reality navigation combined with ICG fluorescence imaging,without conversion to open surgery. The operation time was (276.3±54.8)minutes(range:200 to 360 minutes). Intraoperative blood loss was (75.0±35.4)ml(range:50 to 150 ml). No blood transfusion was performed during the operation. The length of postoperative hospital stay was (7.6±0.8)days(range:7 to 9 days). There were no deaths or postoperative complications such as bleeding or biliary fistula during the perioperative period.Conclusion:Augmented reality navigation combined with ICG fluorescence imaging technology can guide the implementation of laparoscopic anatomical segment 8 liver resection.
