Objective To explore the clinical application of laparoscopic splenectomy in treatment of spleen disease at our hospital.Methods We reviewed laparoscopic splenectomy carried out at our hospital since 1995,patients were grouped by date.63 laparoscopic splenectomies were divided into six groups.Operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative hospital stay,time to feeding,days of drainage,amount of drainage,postoperative complications and indications for surgery were compared.Results Patient's age averaged at 44.19 years,body mass index averaged at 23.75,3 patients were converted to open surgery.Mean operating time,blood loss,postoperative hospital stay,time to feeding,converting rate in the 53 cases which had the surgery after 2003 were much better than the 10 cases before 2003.Surgical indications for laparoscopic splenectomy were limited to hematopoietic disease related splemegaly before 2003,the indication range significantly expanded after 2003,during which laparoscopic splenectomy were mainly applied to treat spleen tumors.Conclusions There is a marked learning curve in laparoscopic splenectomy after 10 surgeries before 2003 we have achieved the level.With the suitable approach,apparatus and skillful technique,laparoscopic splenectomy is safe and feasible to treat tumors of the spleen.

Objective To establish a RP-HPLC method for determining the concentration of prulifloxacin active metabolite in human plasma and urine.Methods The supernatant obtained by centrifugation after the sample was precipitated with methanol- acetonitrile (1:1) was chromatographically separated on a Diamonsil C_(18)(250 mm?4.6 mm,5?m) using a mobile phase con- sisting of acetonitrile and 0.05 mol/L potassium dihydrogen phosphate (pH2.2) containing 1% tetrabutylammonium bromide. The solutions of 20:80 (V/V) and 12:88 (V/V) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and 1.6 mL/min were used for plasma and u- rine, respectively.Then the samples were assayed at wavelength of Ex 280 nm and Em 425 nm.Results The linear range for prulifloxacin active metabolite in plasma and urine were 0.005-5 mg/L (r=0.9999) and 0.05-5 mg/L(r=0.9999)with a low- er limit of quantitation of 0.002 mg/L and 0.01 rag/L, respectively.In plasma, the relative recovery ranged from 100.64% to 101.00% at the concentration of 5.00, 0.50 and 0.05 mg/L and within-day and between-day precisions were less than 2.5% and 4.6% respectively.Meanwhile, the relative recovery ranged from 97.20% to 100.20% at the concentration of 2.50, 0.50 and 0.10 mg/L in urine.The within-day and between-day precisions were lower than 1.3% and 4.3%, respectively.The method had been successfully used for the pharmacokinetic studies of a prulifloxacin formulation after oral administration to healthy volunteers.Conclusions The present method is simple, rapid, accurate, reproducible and suitable for the pharmacoki- netic study of prulifloxacin in humans.

Cardiac toxicity is found in frequently used chemotherapeutic agents.There are many factors related to the cardiac toxicity caused by chemotherapeutic agents.The common cardiovascular complications include heart failure,ischemia,hypertension,hypotension,edema,QT prolongation,pleural effusion,pericardial effusion,bradyarrhythmia and thromboembolism.It is necessary to monitor the left ventricular function before and after chemotherapy and take effective measures to protect myocardium.

Streptomyces sp. A048 was cultured in a complete medium to the last stage of log phase,the hyphae were washed and collected by centrifugation. Then the hyphae were inoculated in liquid medium for chitinase production using two-step fermentation. Activity of chitinase produced by two-step fermentation was 1.1 times higher than that from one-step fermentation,and ferment cycle was for 54 hours,which was 66 hours shorter than that of one-step fermentation. The hyphae and the powder of chitin were co-immobilizated and cultured in liquid medium for 36 hours,activity of chitinase was 1.8 times higher than that from one-step fermentation,and ferment cycle was 54h shorter than that of one-step fermentation. By adding 0.4% cellulose to two-step fermentation,activity of chitinase was 18.52 U/mL that was 4 times higher than that from the control and 10 times higher than that from one-step fermentation. Two step fermentation with chitin and cellulose may be the optimal fermentation process to produce Chitinase from Streptomyces sp. A048.

Background Though nitric oxide (NO) and NO synthase (NOS) have a critical role in angiogenesis,their effects on corneal neovascularization (CNV) and mechanism need to be further explored.Objective The aim of this study was to explore the effects of NOS and its antagonist,Nw-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) on experimental CNV in mice,and investigate the influence of NOS and L-NAME on the tube formation of human retinal endothelial cells (RECs) in vitro.Methods The CNV models were established in the left eyes of 36 male BALB/c mice aged 7-8 weeks by application of the filter paper with NaOH in the center of corneas.The mice were randomized into two groups.L-NAME of 10 g/L (0.5 ml) was intraperitoneally injected 1 week before induction of CNV three times a week for three weeks in the mice of the L-NAME injection,and PBS was used in the same way in the control group.CNV was examined under the slit lamp biomicroscope 2,4,7,14 days after NaOH burn.The expression of CD31 in the CNV was assayed to calculate the ratio of CNV area and total corneal area using whole mount technique.The expression of NOS mRNA in the corneal tissue was detected by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (PCR),and VEGF expression in the human RECs was assayed by Western blot.The vessel formation number of cultured human RECs with or without L-NAME was performed by matrigel in vitro.Grouped t test was used to compare the differences of the parameters between the two groups.Results CNV developed and peaked 2 weeks after the application of NaOH on the mice corneas,and the CNV was obviously less in the L-NAME group compared with the control group.The expression of NOS mRNA in the corneas (NOS mRNA/ GAPDH mRNA)was significantly lower in the L-NAME group than that of the control group 2,4,7 days after CNV induction (t =19.481,t=22.059,t=10.961,all at P＜0.01).The ratio of the CD31 positive area in whole corneal area was 0.59± 0.01 in the L-NAME group,and that of the control group was 0.78±0.10,showing a significant difference between the two groups (t =3.078,P＜0.05).Western blot assay showed that the relative expression of VEGF protein in human RECs was declined in the L-NAME group compared with the control group 0,2,4,7 days,with statistically significant differences in 4 days and 7 days after NaOH burn(t=7.696,t=17.953,both at P＜0.01).The number of vessel network was 46.33±1.86 in the L-NAME group and 64.00±4.51 in the control group,with a significant difference between them (t =3.623,P＜0.05).Conclusions NOS participated in the pathogenesis and aggravation of CNV induced by NaOH.L-NAME arrests CNV formation and human RECs tube formation through down regulating the VEGF expression and NOS activity.

In this paper, the chloroplast psbK-psbI intergenic spacers of 18 species of Dendrobium and their adulterants were amplified and sequenced, and then the sequence characteristics were analyzed. The sequence lengths of chloroplast psbK-psbI regions of Dendrobium ranged from 474 to 513 bp and the GC contents were 25.4%-27.6%. The variable sites were 71 while the informative sites were 46. The inter-specific genetic distances calculated by Kimura 2-parameter (K2P) of Dendrobium were 0.006 1-0.058 1, with an average of 0.028 4. The K2P genetic distances between Dendrobium species and Bulbophyllum odoratissimum were 0.093 2-0.120 4. The NJ tree showed that the Dendrobium species can be easily differentiated from each other and 6 samples of the inspected Dendrobium species were identified successfully through sequencing the psbK-psbI intergenic spacer. Therefore, the chloroplast psbK-psbI intergenic spacer can be used as a candidate marker to identify Dendrobium species and its adulterants.

Objective To compare the effective dose deposited in patients between helical tomotherapy (HT) and multi-ISO radiotherapy (M-ISO) in carniospinal irradiation (CSI).Methods Nine children with craniospinal irradiation were selected .For these patients , new plans were designed with HT and M-ISO centers planning method on the treatment planning system ( TPS) .The effective dose of the nine patients from 18 treatment plans were calculated ,and the difference of the effective dose between HT and M-ISO was compared using paired t-test.Results The plans designed in two groups were both satisfied all clinical requirements .For the planning target volume ( PTV ) , no statistically significant difference was found in D95% between two groups ( P>0.05 ) , while D98%, D2% and homogeneity index (HI) in HT group were superior to M-ISO group (t=2.762, 2.413, 4.563, P<0.05), D50%, Dmean and CI in M-ISO group were superior to HT group (t=5.259, 3.685, 7.815, P<0.05).HT and M-ISO had different advantages in the protection of the OARs .The effective dose of patients in M-ISO group was superior to HT group (t=5.921, P<0.05).Conclusions HT and M-ISO have different advantages in CSI.The low dose area has greater influence on the effective dose in HT group compared to M-ISO group. The low dose area should be concerned while designing the treatment planning for CSI .

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for strengthening the safety of the combination use of CYP3A4 inhibitors with statins in clinical treatment. METHODS:30 cases per month(totally 300 cases)(the hospitalization time was more than 10 days) discharged from the cardiology department of a third-level class A hospital during Jan. to Oct. 2013 were selected randomly,and statistical analysis was made into general information of patients,whether to use statins and CYP3A4 inhibitor,and whether to monitor safety indicators of liver and kidney function and creatine kinase. RESULTS:Totally 291 patients were treated with statins with a total use rate of 97%,including 265 cases of atorvastatin and 11 cases of simvastatin. The CYP3A4 inhibitors were com-bined with amlodipine,diltiazem,verapammy,amiodarone,Ginkgo biloba leaf,fenofibrate and clarithromycin,etc.,and 162 (59%) patients were given the combination use of simvastatin or atorvastatin with CYP3A4 inhibitors. But the liver and kidney function,creatine kinase and other safety indicators were not monitored by laboratory examination during medication. CONCLU-SIONS:Atorvastatin and simvastatin are used commonly in patients with cardiovascular disease,and the combination use rate with CYP3A4 inhibitor is relatively higher and needs long-term medication,drug dosage should be limited according to the direction of instructions and the adverse reactions induced by drug interactions should be noticed to strengthen medication monitor and education for patients.
