Objective To develop a method for determination of catechins and alkaloids in brick-tea by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) with diode array detection(DAD),and to explore optimum extraction conditions for catechins and alkaloids components in brick-tea.Methods Catechins and alkaloids were separated and detected by HPLC.Orthogonal experiment and paired t test was carried out to compare the effect of water and alcohol as extraction solvents and to obtain optimum extraction conditions for extracting catechins and alkaloids components in brick-tea.Results Six kinds of catechins of catechin,epicatechin,gallocatechin,epigallocatechin,epicatechin gallate,epigallocatechin gallate and two kinds of alkaloids of caffeine and theobromine were separated and detected simultaneously.Calibration curves between peak areas and concentration of each component in bricktea were linear within a suitable concentration range,and coefficients of determination (R2) were between 0.9990-0.9999; spiked recoveries were from 83.78％ to 106.35％,and relative standard deviations(RSD) were between 0.50％-1.51％.The optimum extraction condition for catechins and alkaloids was 80％ ethanol,solid-liquid ratio of 1:10,temperature 80 ℃ and extraction time 30 min.Conclusion Alcohol as extraction solvents with optimal combination on HPLC,six kinds of catechins and two kinds of alkaloids are separated accurately,qualitatively,rapidly and sensitively.

Objective To analyze the imaging appearances of solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) of the lower limb.Methods The imaging manifestations of SFT of the lower limb proved with pathology in 2 patients were reported and the relevant literatures were reviewed.All patients underwent MR examination,and 1 received skeletal radiography.Results Both tumors were mainly located within the biceps muscle of thigh.MR demonstrated that the tumor appeared as a solitary round or oval well circumscribed mass,with inhomogeneous low to intermediate intensity signal on T1WI and heterogeneous low to high intensity signal on T2WI.Inhomogeneous enhancement was demonstrated on T1WI.Marked enhancement of solid components in the tumor was identified.No bone destruction was found on plain film.Conclusion There are some characteristics on the imaging of SFT of the lower extremity.MRI is the optimal imaging method for the diagnosis of this disease.

The evolution of the quality control concepts of medical products within the global context and the development of the quality control technology of Chinese medicine are briefly described. Aimed at the bottlenecks in the regulation and quality control of Chinese medicine, using Big Data technology to address the significant challenges in Chinese medicine industry is proposed. For quality standard refinements and internationalization of Chinese medicine, a technological innovation strategy encompassing its methodology, and the R&D direction of the subsequent core technology are also presented.

Objective To investigate the conventional MRI and perfusion weighted imaging (PWI) features of central neurocytoma(CNC), and to evaluate the potentiality of them in diagnosing accuracy. Methods Three patients with CNC proved pathologically were collected, 4 patients with ependymoma were as control group, with conventional MRI and perfusion weighted imaging were performed in all of them. MRI features were observed, and relative regional cerebral blood volume (rrCBV) were calculated.Results CNCs were isosignal on T_1WI, hyperintense on T_2WI, minimal enhancment. Ependymomas were hypointense or isosignal on T_1WI, slightly hyperintense or hyperintense on T_2WI and minimal enhancement. On PWI, CNCs were obviously high-perfusion, rrCBV was 11.2, but which was 2.1 in ependymoma, there was statistically signifcant difference between two groups(P

Objective To investigate the value of MR perfusion weighted imaging(PWI) features in typing meningioma preoperation.Methods MR perfusion weighted imaging was performed on 39 patients with pathologically proved meningioma.The relative regionalcerebral blood volume(rrCBV) and relative mean transit time(rMTT) were calculated.Results The rrCBV and rMTT of angioblastic meningiomas were 11.8 and 1.8,which were higher than that of the others subtype.The rrCBV of meningothelial meningiomas andtransitional meningiomas were 8.3,7.5 respectively,the rMTT of them were 1.5 and 1.3,there was statistically significant difference in rMTT between two groups,but no difference in rrCBV.The rrCBV of fibrous meningiomas was 4.0,which was lower than that of the others.Conclusion PWI is very useful in typing meninigioma preoperation.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of antiangiogenesis on C6 glioma and to study the practical value of PWI in evaluating the early response of the tumor to the treatment.Methods C6 glioma cells were stereotactically implanted into SD rats intracranially.At the 15 day after tumor implantation,the recombinant human endostatin was administered or stereotactic radiosurgery was performed.Endostatin was injected subcutaneously at the dose of 5 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 ,10 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 ,and 20 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 for 7 days.Stereotactic radiosurgery was given once with the central radiation dose of 25Gy.MR PWI was performed to measure relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) of the tumor and the normal brain before and 48 hours after treatment.Conventional MRI was performed to calculate tumor volume.Results The tumor volume was (429.0?36.7)mm 3,(305.7?32.8)mm 3,and (277.0?20.6)mm 3 in each endostatin treated group,and(390.0?33.8)mm 3 in SRS treated group,which were lower than that in control group(566.7?135.0)mm 3 (P=0.031).The rCBV in endostatin group was 1.57?0.12,1.30?0.12,and 1.24?0.08,respectively according to three different doses,which were lower than those before endostatin therapy with statistical significance (P

Objective To understand the schistosomiasis epidemic situation among migrant population,so as to assess the potential risk of schistosomiasis transmission in Haining City. Methods Five districts in Haining City were randomly selected to investigate the schistosomiasis endemic situation in migrant population from the schistosomiasis endemic provinces. Results Totally 1207 persons were investigated and four positives were found in serological tests,with the positive rate of 0.33%,but no patients were found in pathologic tests. The positive cases in serological tests were mainly between 31-40 years old,with the pos-itive rate of 1.68%,which was higher than that of other age groups( χ2 = 6.590,P < 0.05). Conclusion The schistosomiasis surveillance work in migrant population still should be strengthened in Haining City.

Objective To observe effects of electro-acupuncture (EA) on the expression of apoptosis related protein B-cell lymphoma/leukemia gene 2 (Bcl-2) and Bcl-associated protein X (Bax) in the hippoeampal CA1 region of rats with cerebral infarction,and on their behavior. MethodsAn animal model of cerebral ischemia was established by right side middle cerebral artery occlusion using thread in 48 male,adult Wistar rats,who were then randomly divided equally into an EA group and a control group.Both groups were sub-divided into 1 week,2 weeks and 3 weeks subgroups.The EA group began receiving EA 24h after the occlusion,applied at the Baihui (DU20) and Dazhui (BU14) points,once daily,for one,two or three weeks.The control group was reared conventionally and was not given any special treatment.The rats'learning and memory,motion and neural function were evaluated.The expression of Bcl-2 and Bax in the CA1 region of the hippocampus on the infarcted side and changes of apoptosis indexes were detected using immunohistochemical techniques.ResultsThe learning,memory,motion and neural function of the EA group rats were better on average than those of the control group at all observation time points.The expression of Bcl-2 protein increased along with reduced expression of Bax protein in the EA group significantly more than among the controls.TUNEL positive cells in the CA1 region of the hippocampus were reduced significantly in the EA group compared with the control group.ConclusionsBehavioral ability after cerebral infarction can be improved by EA at the Baihui (DU20) and Dazhui (BU14) points.EA can up-regulate the expression of Bcl-2 and down-regulate the expression of Bax and reduce TUNEL positive cells in the CA1 region of the hippocampus after cerebral infarction,which might be the mechanism of its neuroprotection.
