OBJECTIVE:To study the protective effect of tanshinoneⅡA(TSⅡA)sulfonate injection against vancomycin(VAN)-induced renal injury model rats and its mechanism. METHODS:72 rats were randomly divided into blank group,model group, positive control group(amifostine,1 mg/kg)and TSⅡA sulfonate injection low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose groups(15,30, 60 μg/kg),with 12 rats in each group. Except for blank group,those groups were given VAN(200 mg/kg)intravenously via tail vein to induce renal injury rat model;after modeling,each drug group was given relevant medicine intraperitoneally once a day, and blank group and model group were given normal saline intragastrically for consecutive 10 days. The levels of 24 h protein, NAG and KIM-1 in urine were determined,and those of Cys C,Scr and BUN in serum and those of SOD,MDA,GSH-Px and NO in renal homogenate were also determined;the pathological change of renal tissue was observed. RESULTS:Compared with blank group,the levels of Cys C,Scr and BUN in serum,those of 24 h protein,NAG and KIM-1 in urine and those of MDA and NO in renal tissue increased significantly in model group,while the levels of SOD and GSH-Px decreased significantly(P<0.01);the pathological slice indicated that model group suffered from renal injury such as kidney tubules albuminoid degeneration,brush border abscission,renal tubular epithelial cell disintegration and abscission. Compared with model group,the levels of Cys C,Scr and BUN in serum,those of 24 h protein,NAG and KIM-1 in urine and those of MDA and NO in renal tissue decreased signifi-cantly in treatment groups,while the levels of SOD and GSH-Px in renal tissue increased significantly(P<0.05 or P<0.01);path-ological changes of renal tissue were relieved significantly. CONCLUSIONS:TSⅡ A sulfonate injection can effectively relieve VAN-induced renal injury in rats,and its mechanism may be associated with inhibiting the oxidative reaction of rats in vivo.

Objective To investigate the clinical application value of pancreatoduodenectomy combined with vascular resection and reconstruction for pancreatic head carcinoma.Methods The clinical data of a patient with pancreatic head carcinoma who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy combined with vascular resection and reconstruction at the Southwest Hospital in March 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Preoperative imaging examination showed no gap between vascular wall of portal vein (PV) and pancreatic head space-occupying lesion,vascular compression and stenosis at intersection of PV,splenic vein (SV) and superior mesenteric vein (SMV),but not excluding adjacent main PV invasion.During the operation,it was difficult to separate pancreatic head carcinoma from PV,indicating vascular wall invasion at intersection of PV,SV and SMV.Therefore,the pancreatic head,bile ducts,duodenum,partial jejunum,invasive vein vessels,lymphatic and nerve tissues were radically resected,then PV,SMV and SV were reconstructed.The patient was followed up by outpatient examination and telephone interview after surgery till April 2015.Results The patient underwent pancreatoduodenectomy combined with vascular resection and reconstruction successfully without blood transfusion.The operation time was 285 minutes and volume of intraoperative blood loss was 300 mL.The patient had a smooth postoperative recovery,resuming diet at postoperative day 5.The abdominal drainage tube and stitches were removed at postoperative day 6 and day 12,and the patient was discharged from hospital at postoperative day 15.Computed tomography reexamination showed clear vascular anastomose.The patient was not complicated with pancreatic fistula,biliary fistula,intra-abdominal hemorrhage and vascular embolism.The postoperative pathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of pancreatic head moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma accompanied by PV invasion and lymph node metastasis,with a negative margin.The patient began a course of single drug common chemotherapy using gemcitabine at postoperative day 40.No cancer recurrence was detected during the one-year follow-up.Conclusion Pancreatoduodenectomy combined with vascular resection and reconstruction is safe and feasible for the treatment of pancreatic head carcinoma with good surgical effects.

Novel optical materials are crucial for environmental monitoring. Metal nanoclusters ( metal NCs) , typically consisting of several to tens of metal atoms, have attracted more and more attention for recent years. Due to their ultrasmall size, strong fluorescence, low toxicity, excellent stability and unique core-shell structure, metal NCs have been considered as promising optical materials for the construction of excellent fluorescent sensors. In this review, we mainly focus on the recent progress in their applications in environmental monitoring, including the detection of pH, heavy metal ions, inorganic anions and nitroaromatic explosives.

OBJECTIVE:To develop and improve the quality standard for Kanggu zengsheng tablet. METHODS:TLC was used for the qualitative identification of Drynaria fortunei,Epimedii Folium and Spatholobus suberectus;HPLC was used for the contents determination of icariin and acteoside:the column was Diamonsil C18 with mobile phase of acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid solution (gradient elution) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min;detection wavelength was 270 nm for icariin and 334 nm for acteoside, Cdumn temperature was 25 ℃,and the injection volume was 10 μL. RESULTS:The TLC spots of D. fortunei,Epimedii Folium and S. suberectus were clear and well separated,negative control without interference. The linear range was 0.0188-1.88 μg for ac-teoside(r=0.9999)and 0.107-2.14 μg for icariin(r=0.9999);RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2.0%;recoveries were 100.2%-105.0%(RSD=1.6%,n=9) and 96.2%-99.5%(RSD=1.4%,n=9). CONCLUSIONS:The improved standard can more effectively control the quality of Kanggu zengsheng tablet.

BACKGROUND: Most of the literatures only reported that there is a great difference between diabetics who have a high 24-hour urinary albumin excretion rate and those without renal damage, but there is no obvious difference between cases of microalbuminuria and those without renal damage.OBJECTIVE: To probe into the relationship between diabetic nephropathy and osteoporosis.DESIGN: A case-control study.SETTING: Department of Endocrinology, West China Hospital of Sichuan University.PARTICIPANTS: According to the diagnostic standard set by the American Diabetes Association in 1997 (fasting blood glucose ≥ 7 mmol/L,postprandial blood glucose ≥ 11.1 mmol/L), 96 diabetic patients were selected, including 56 males ＜ 60 years old and 40 females who had not entered the menopausal period, excluding the influence of age and osteoporosis caused by menopause. The average age of the subjects was (48.7±10.5)years, their duration were from one month to twenty-one years with the aver age of (7.85±2.56) years, and their general information had no significant differences.METHODS: According to the urine albumine excretion rate and renal function, the patients were divided into four groups: normal albuminuria group (n=48), microalbuminuria group (n=28), macroalbuminuria group (n=15), renal failure group (n=5). The bone mineral densities of lumbar spines (L2-4), femoral neck, Ward's triangle and trochanter were detected with Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, and then the fasting blood glucose,2-hour postprandial blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin A, alkaline phosphatase, calcium, phosphorus, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine and urine albumine excretion rate were compared between the patients with and without osteoporosis.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin A, alkaline phosphatase, calcium, phosphorus, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine and urine albumine excretion rate, as well as the bone mineral density, were observed in all the patients.RESULTS: The L2-3 bone mineral density in the macroalbuminuria group was significantly different from that in the microalbuminuria group (P ＜ 0.05). The proximal femur bone mineral density in the microalbuminuria group was significantly different from that in the normal albuminuria group (P ＜ 0.05). The bone mineral densities of proximal femur and lumbar spine in the renal failure group were significantly decreased as compared with those in the other groups (P ＜ 0.01). The disease course,glycosylated hemoglobin A, alkaline phosphatase and body mass index were significantly different between the patients with and without osteoporosis (P ＜ 0.05).CONCLUSION: The incidence rate of osteoporosis is increased with the aggravation of nephropathy, and diabetic nephropathy may be closely correlated with the decrease of bone mineral density and the occurrence of osteoporosis.
