Aim The relative bioavalability of hydrochloride eperisone granule in 10 healthy volunteers was studied. Methods The time-plasma concentrations of hydrochloride eperisone granule, as test drug, and myonal, as reference drug, were determined by GC-MS, with tolperisone senuing as internal standard.The pharmacokinetic parameters of both reference and test drug were calculated and analyzed with two-one side test and confidential interval test. Results The results showed that the AUC0-8, AUC0-∞, Cmax, Tpeak, t1/2(?) and t1/2(?) were (17.9?1.3)ng?h?ml-1 and(18.6?1.6)ng?h?ml-1, (19.1?1.2)ng?h?ml-1 and (20.2?1.6)ng?h?ml-1, (5.2?0.5)ng?ml-1 and (5.4?0.5) ng?ml-1, (1.05?0.18)h and (1.08?0.23)h, (0.78? 0.13)h and ( 0.82?0.14)h,( 1.8?0.3)h and (1.8?0.3)h, respectively. The relative bioavalability of test drug was (105? 5)%. Conclusion It can be concluded that the test and reference are bioequivalented between individuals, preparations and periods.

Objective In attempt to improve the reconstruction of small defects in the facial and frontal regions, we developed a modified radial artery perforator-based free flap. Methods The free proxi-mal radial forearm flap was based on the distal perforator of the radial artery and the concomitant radial vein. The vascular pedicle passed through deep fascia. The free flap was transferred to repair the defects of the fa-cial and frontal regions. Results In 6 patients with frontal defects and 4 patients with facial defects, all flaps survived completely. After following up for 6-12 months, flaps underwent plastic surgery to become thin-ner. The flaps of 10 cases were good in skin texture and color at recipient sites. The scars were cosmetically acceptable. The superficial sensibility recovered well. Conclusion A modified radial artery perforator-based free flap was useful in coveting small defects of the facial and frontal regions.

ObjectiveTo investigate and compare the behavioral changes, neuron loss of hippocampus and mossy fiber sprouting between pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus (SE) model and pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) kindling model in rats.MethodsAfter two different epilepsy models were made, Vedio was adopted to observe the behavioral changes. Nissl staining and Neo-timms' staining were separately used to observe and compare the neuron loss of hippocampus and mossy fiber sprouting in the dentate gyrus (DG) at different time points during epileptogenisis.ResultsNo recurrent spontaneous seizure, no neuron loss and no mossy fiber sprouting were found in PTZ kindling model; whereas obvious neuron loss was found in CA1, CA3 of hippocampus and hilus of DG, and mossy fiber sprouting were found in pilocarpine model in parallel with recurrent spontaneous seizures. ConclusionPTZ kindling model resembles absence epilepsy in human, while pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus model resembles chronic temporal epilepsy in human. Neuron loss and mossy fiber sprouting may play an important role in epileptogenisis. Pilocarpine-induced epilepsy model can be regarded as an ideal chronic temporal epilepsy model.

OBJECTIVETo explore clinical effects of internal fixation in treating displaced clavicle fracture combined with coracoid process.

METHODSFrom January 2005 to July 2012, 9 patients with displaced clavicle fracture combined with coracoid process were treated by internal fixation. Among them, there were 6 males and 3 females with an average age of 40.1 (ranged from 20 to 57) years old. According to Eyres classification: 3 cases were type II B, 1 case was type II A, 3 cases were type III B, and 2 cases were type V A. All patients had history of injury, and diagnosed as coracoid fracture X-ray and CT before operation. Herscovici criteria was used to evaluate function of shoulders joint after operation.

RESULTSSeven of 9 patients were followed up from 6 to 18 (averaged 11) months. The incisions were healed at stage I, coracoid process obtained bony healing, and reduction of acromioclavicular joint well. According to Herscovici criteria, 6 patients got excellent results and 1 in good.

CONCLUSIONInternal fixation for the treatment of displaced clavicle fracture combined with coracoid process could restore physiological anatomical position of coracoid process, and benefit for recovery of limb function.

Objective To analyse the characteristics of orbital benign and malignant masses on diffusion weighted imaging in combination with conventional MR imaging and evaluate the diagnostic value of apparent diffusion coefficient in distinguishing benign and malignant orbital lesions.Methods Seventy- seven cases with orbital masses,including fifty-five benign lesions and twenty-two malignant tumors,who underwent conventional MRI and diffusion imaging scanning were studied with use of a 1.5 T magnetic resonance system.Quantitative ADC measurements of masses(ADC_M)and of the white matter of eontralateral temporal lobe(ADC_W)were made with two different b-values of 0 and 1000 s/mm~2.The ADC ratio(ADCR)of the lesion to the control was calculated.The receiver operating characteristic curves(ROC) were constructed using various cut points of ADC_M and ADCR for different parameters to differentiate between benign and malignant masses.The area under the ROC curve for each parameter was also calculated. Results All cases were proved by histopathology.The mean ADC_M and ADCR of benign orbital masses were(1.56?0.75)?10~(-3)mm~2/s and 1.85?0.91,respectively.The mean ADC_M and ADCR of malignant orbital masses were(1.09?0.42)?10~(-3)mm~2/s and 1.28?0.53,respectively.There were significant difference both between ADC_M and ADCR of benign and malignant masses(t=2.803,2.735,P

Objective To evaluate the bioequivalence of domestic amisulpride hablets and imported tablets.Methods A single oral dose of 200 mg domestic and imported amisulpride tablets were given to twenty healthy volunteers in a randomized crossover study.4 mL blood was col-lected at scheduled time.The concentrations of amisulpride were deter-mined bv HPLC-MS/MS method.Resuits The main pharmacokinetic parameters of two preparations were as follows:AUC_(0-48) were(3.01±0.86),(2.94±0.88)μg·h·mL~(-1),C_(max) were(392.19±135.35),(419.84±154.25)ng·mL~(-1),t_(1/2) were(9.42±3.02),(8.89±3.05)h,t_(max) were(3.70±0.80),(3.80±0.77)h,respectively.The relative bioavailability of domestic and imported amisulpride tablet to im-ported tablet was(104.0±17.1)%.Conclution The results demon-strated that the two preparations were bioequivalent.

Objective To evaluated the clinical results of treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head(ONFH)by using bone flap pedicled with gluteal muscle branch of ascending branch of the lateral femo- ral circumflex artery and transversal branch of the lateral femoral cireumflex artery.Methods Bone flap pedicled with double blood vessels was applied in 32 hips with stageⅡandⅢONFH according to the Fieat staging system.Fifteen hips were in stageⅡand 17 were in stageⅢ.All patients were followed up for a mean of 25 months(range,15-38 months)and were assessed clinically and radiologically according to Harris sco- ring.Selective digital subtraction angiography was performed in 9 cases to confirm the blood reconstruction of femoral head.Results Two cases underwent total hip replacement postoperatively.Preoperative and postop- erative Harris score were 55 and 88.6.Clinical success rate was 90.6% and radiological success rate was 87.5%.DSA demonstrated blood supply was found reconstruction in the necrotic femoral head.Conclusion Transplantation of bone flap pedicled with gluteal muscle branch of ascending branch of the lateral femoral circumflex artery and transversal branch of the lateral femoral circumflex artery appears to be a effective treat- ment for osteonecrosis of the femoral head,blood supply of bone flap and blood reconstruction of femoral head was confirmed.Early clinical results were satisfied.

BACKGROUNDTo assess the safety and tolerance of adefovir dipivoxil tablet in Chinese healthy volunteers.

METHODSTotally 42 healthy volunteers were enrolled in the study, 21 were female and 21 were male and their age ranged from 19 to 26 years. The subjects were randomly divided into 5, 10, 20, 40 and 60 mg dose-groups (6-10 subjects in each group) based on sex and weight, beginning with the 5 mg dose-group. Clinical symptoms, vital signs, electrocardiogram, routine blood test, routine urine test, prothrombin time and blood biochemical tests were recorded and evaluated.

RESULTSNo significant changes were found in clinical symptoms, vital signs and laboratory tests after dosing, except slight elevations of alanine aminotransferase in 2 subjects and bilirubin in 6 subjects observed and some gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea and diarrhea found in 3 subjects, but the frequency and severity of all the adverse reactions were not found to be related to the dosages.

CONCLUSIONThe results showed that single oral dose of adefovir dipivoxil 60 mg or less was safe and tolerable.
