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.

Objective To investigate the results of tumor specific growth factor(TSGF) levels in in healthy people and cancer patients in Guangzhou areas .Methods The serum TSGF levels of 6 615 health check-up receivers and 287 patients with cancer in the hospital from July 2012 to June 2013 were detected .Results In health check-up receivers ,the level and positive rate of TSGF were higher in >40-50 age women .The level and positive rate of TSGF in men were increased with age .The levels of TSGF in pa-tients with lung cancer ,liver cancer and digestive system tumor were higher than that in health check-up receivers(P<0 .01) ,but there has no statistically difference between genital system cancer patients and healthy check-up receivers(P>0 .05) .Conclusion Performing TSGF test in health examination is great significance to the early diagnosis of malignant tumors .The reference value range of TSGF should be set according to different gender and age .

Objective To evaluate the factors affecting the treatment of old persons diagnosed hypertension. Method A sample of 55566 persons from the community of Yanji area of Shanghai was recruited. Results Among the 19295 persons over sixty there are 5842 patients with hypertension, the morbidity was 30.3%. Among the 36271 persons aged fifteen to fifty-nine there are 3536 patients with hypertension, the morbidity is 9.7%. The ratio of non-treatment in the old age group is 3.1% and in younger group is 8.8%. However,the compliance to the treatment was better in the younger than in old group(73.7% vs 56.2%). The age,hypertension grade and sex were all accounted for the differences in the regularity of the hypertension treatment. Conclusion Further effort on the education of non-old hypertensive patients is essential to decrease the damage from hypertension.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cleaning efficacy of the automatic cleaning machine and the risk factors to ensure the effect of disinfection and sterilization. METHODS Cleaning efficacy of the automatic cleaning machines was detected by STF cleaning test card.It was put in the first cabin of every automatic cleaning machine.And it was also tested for these factors in determining cleaning qualities such as enzyme concentration,water temperature and pieces of instruments washed. RESULTS The cleaning efficacy of the automatic cleaning machines was 98.9% in the continuous two years.The qualified rate was 98.6% for surgical instruments,99.4% for all instrument in clinical sections. CONCLUSIONS The machine is suitable for the cleaning of surgical instruments.It also raises working efficiency,cutting down the cost of repairs and maintenance,reducing the chances of injury and infections in nurses who performed manual cleaning precedures.The procedures of the STF cleaning test card in detecting the cleaning efficacy is simpler,safer,and suitable for clinical applications.

Objective:To observe the change of periphery and centra lymphocyte subsets at the crest-time of MOG_(35-55) induced EAE disease in mice,and to explore the alteration of cellular immunity and humoral immunity in the invasion process in EAE.Methods:MOG_(35-55) was used to establish EAE model in femina C57BL/6 mice.The behavioral changes and the histological scores were recorded after the mice were immuned .The changes of CD3~+CD4~+,CD3~+CD8~+,CD4~+CD25~+ and B220~+ on periphery and centra lymphocytes in spleen,brain and spinal cord were analyzed by flow cytometry.Results:The CD3~+CD4~+,CD3~+CD8~+,CD4~+CD25~+ and B220~+ lymphocytes were detected in the brain and spinal cord of EAE group mice,but they were not detected in CFA control group.The CD3~+CD4~+ and CD3+CD8+lymphocytes in the spleen of EAE crest-time group were lower than those in CFA control group(P＜0.05).The B220~+ lymphocytes were obviously higher than in the CFA control group (P＜0.01).And CD4~+CD25~+ lymphocytes were slight higher than the CFA control group.Conclusion:At the crest-time during EAE,the CD3~+CD4~+,CD3~+CD8~+lymphocytes of spleen reduced obviously,B220~+ lymphocytes increased markedly,and the CD4~+CD25~+ lymphocytes just have the increasing trend.It indicates that cellular immunity and humoral immunity coregulated the patho-process at the crest-time of EAE,T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes all played important roles in the pathogenesy of EAE.

Objective To analyze and evaluate the characteristics of enzyme kinetics of CTX-M-14 type extended-spectrum β-lactamase(ESBL) with Pro167 residue substitution. Methods By molecular cloning and PCR techniques, CTX-M-14 gene was directionally cloned into plasmid pET28a( + ) from a clinical E. coli isolate and formed an expression vector to transform competent E. coli BL21 (DE3 ). Prol67 residue substitutions of P167G, P167Q, P167S and P167T were introduced to CTX-M-14 by site-directed muta-genesis based on overlap extension PCR with the former recombinant plasmid as PCR template, respectively.The wild-type CTX-M-14, recombinant CTX-M-14 protein and its variants were expressed and purified, then their steady-state kinetic parameters (Kcat, Km and Kcat/Km ) against β-lactam antibiotics were determined.Results The kinetic parameters of wild-type and recombinant CTX-M-14 had no statistically significant differences (P>0.1). The 1/Km, Kcat and Kcat/Km values of P167S variant against ceftazidime were 16-fold, 2.87-fold and 43.6-fold higher than those of recombinant CTX-M-14, respectively, and the Kcat/Km value of P167S variant against penicillin, ampicillin, cefazolin, cefuroxime, ceftriaxone, cefotaxime decreased( < 0.05). Compared with the kinetic parameters of recombinant CTX-M-14, the kinetic parameters of P167T variant against ceftazidime had no significant change, but the Kcat values of P167Q and P167G variants decreased dramatically(P<0.01). Conclusion There was no difference between the enzyme activities of wild-type and recombinant CTX-M-14. P167S variant could not only promote the enzyme affinity of CTX-M-14 to ceftazidime but also improve the conversion rate of enzyme-substrate complex in the ceftazidime hydrolysis. The comparison of the kinetic parameters of CTX-M-14 and its variants with Pro167 residue substitution showed that the increased activity of CTX-M ESBL variants against ceftazidime could not be simply explained with the enlarged cavity in active site that may be caused by the replacement of Pro167 residue by smaller amino acids.

Objective To discuss the clinical significance of serum neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin(NGAL)detection in the diagnosis of contrast induced nephropathy .Methods A total of 299 inpatients with contrast medium in department of inten‐sive care unit(ICU) ,department of cardiovascular disease ,department of urology from Guangdong Province Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were enrolled ,and the fasting blood glucose and lipids were detected .Sera were collected before examination of contrast medium and 1 ,2 and 6 d after examination of contrast medium respectively .Serum creatinine(SCr)and cystatin C(CysC) were detected ,the concentration of NGAL was determined .CIN was defined as of increased by 44 μmol/L or 25% from baseline in SCr within 24-48 h .The NGAL detection variation tendency was analyzed in different time point .Results In 299 cases ,CIN oc‐curred in 28 patients ,the incidence rate was 9 .36% .The diabetes patients in the incidence of CIN was 16 .21% (12/74) ,no inci‐dence of diabetic patients was 7 .11% (16/225) .When compared with that of before contrast ,CIN in serum of patients with Cr and CysC coronary angiography in 2 d significantly increased after contrast medium ,returned to the level before angiography on 6 d .But the serum NGAL in angiography 1 d after it was significantly increased (P<0 .05) ,statistically significant differences compared with pre contrast ,and was still at a high level on sixth day .Conclusion Prediction of CIN level of serum NGAL in contrast after 1 d could be a good predictor for CIN ,and the prediction time is earlier than the serum levels of Cr and CysC .The level of serum NGAL can be used for early diagnosis of CIN .
