Objective:To determine the related substances in dienestrol tablets by HPLC. Methods:The separation was performed on a C18 column(250 mm × 4. 6 mm,5μm). The mobile phase consisted of methanol-acetonitrile(76∶24), the flow rate was set at 0. 8 ml·min-1 with the detection wavelength at 229 nm, and the sample size was 10 μl. Results:Under the established chromatographic conditions, the related substances and dienestrol were separated completely. The limit of detection was 2 ng. Conclusion:The method is simple, accurate, specific and sensitive in the determination of related substances in dienestrol tablets.

Objective:To study the effect of repeated transient ischemic attacks(TIAs)on cumulative injury of cognitive function.Methods:The cognitive condition of 42 patients with repeated TIAs were assessed after each TIA using the event related potential,modified version of Wisconsin card sorting test,trail making test,digit span task,and verbal fluency test.The cognitive condition was compared and analyzed after different attack times.Results:There were significant differences among the cognitive condition after different attack times,latency and amplitude of P300,and detection rate of mild cognitive impairment.With the increase of the attack times,cognitive impairment aggravated gradually,and the detection rate of mild cognitive impairment increased gradually.Conclusions:Repeated TIAs have cumulative injury on cognitive function.The prevention and treatment of cerebral ischemia may become an important approach in decreasing cognitive impairment.

Objective To investigate the method of handmade microwire lasso device for the management of coil migration during intracranial aneurysm embolization. Methods Two migration coils were removed from intracranial arteries using handmade microwire lasso rings. The first coil prolapsed completely from an aneurysm sac and flowed to the middle cerebral artery M2 segment. The second coil partially prolapsed out into a parent artery. The microwire lasso device was made of 4-0 silk thread and fixed using 0. 36 mm (0. 014 inch)microwire and 0. 43 mm (0. 017 inch)microcatheter. Results After removing 2 migration coils from intracranial arteries,angiography did not reveal vascular injury and thrombosis. There was no aneurysm rupture. After awaking from anesthesia,the patient did not have neurological deficit. The patient was followed up for 3 months after procedure. MR angiography confirmed the patency of related arteries. Conclusion The handmade microwire lasso device for the management of coil migration in the process of aneurysm embolization is a simple,effective,and economical method.

Speech output, as a frequently used device in augmentative and alternative communication, has been limitedly used in intervention for autism. This article reviewed related studies in application of speech output in intervention for children with autism.

After more than half a century of development, obesity and metabolic surgery in western countries has become a complete surgical specialties, but the introduction of obesity and metabolic surgery was only 10 years old in China. The surgical treatment of obesity and related metabolic diseases, especially obesity of type 2 diabetes has been recognized and acknowledgd by the majority of surgical colleagues and patients as a new direction of development. The current trend of obesity and metabolic surgery is favorable, but there are many problems in the development of obesity and metabolic surgery in China, for example, the surgery nomenclature is not standardized, surgical indications are loosened, the surgical procedure is modified arbitrarily, the evaluation criteria is confusing, the postoperative follow-up protocol is not unified, etc. These problems require the majority of surgical colleagues to work together to make the standards scientifically a nd objectively in accordance with the actual situatioin of our country, so as to promote the healthy development of obesity and metabolic surgery in China.

0.05)respectively.[Conclusion]The technique of radiographic assessment to define the anteromedial OA of the knee is not easy to perform,but it can be used,by well trained doctors,in the most knee OA cases with high accuracy.The MR imaging gives more information about cartilage defects and can be used in some doubted cases.

Objective To analyze stenting and dual catheter technique in protection of posterior inferior cerebellar artery and its imaging and clinical follow-up results in the endovascular treatment of vertebral artery dissecting aneurysms. Methods From January 2012 to December 2014,the clinical data of 4 patients with vertebral artery dissecting aneurysm involving posterior inferior cerebellar artery treated with endovascular method and admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery,Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University were enrolled retrospectively. The whole brain DSA examinations were performed at 6 months after procedure. The clinical follow-up period ranged from 12 to 24 months. Results Three of the 4 patients were treated with posterior inferior cerebellar artery-vertebral artery stenting,one patient was treated by using bidirectional dual catheter technique to protect posterior inferior cerebellar artery. The interventional therapy of 4 patients were all successful. Immediately after procedure,angiography revealed that the posterior inferior cerebellar arteries were patent,no ischemic symptoms were observed. The angiography at 6 months after procedure revealed no recurrence of aneurysms;the posterior inferior cerebellar arteries were patent without in-stent stenosis. No new symptoms of neurological deficit were observed during 12 to 24-month follow-up. Conclusion In the interventional treatment of vertebral artery dissecting aneurysms of posterior inferior cerebellar artery,using the posterior inferior cerebellar artery-vertebral artery stenting technique and bidirectional dual catheter technique may safely and effectively protect the posterior inferior cerebellar artery.

Objective To study the effects of Nitric oxide(NO),Nitric oxide synthases (NOS)on calcium-activated potassium channels (KCa) of mesenteric artery smooth muscle(SMC)between patients with essential hypertension (EH) and normotensive patients.Methods (1)Mesenteric artery branch from 21 EH and 18 normotensive patients respectively was digested by enzyme.Patch clamp technique was used to pull cell-attached and inside-out patches on mesenteric artery SMC from EH.The signal channel open number probability (Po),open dwell-time(To) and close dwell- time(Tc),were recorded.(2)The levels of plasma NO?NOS were measured by colorimetry analysis method.(3)The analysis of linear correlation was performed to estimate the relationship between the levels of plasma NO and Po?To?Tc of KCa of mesenteric artery SMC in the subjects of the two groups.Results (1)Compared to that of normotensive patients,the activities of KCa channels of patients with EH was higher.After adding Ca 2+ to cytoplasm,the Po of KCa channels in normotensive patients increased significantly.But there were few changes in EH group.(2)The levels of plasma NO?NOS were lower in EH group than in control group.(3)Linear correlation analysis showed that the levels of plasma NO were correlated positively with Po?To in normotensive patients,wherese the positive correlation were decreased in EH group.Conclusion The activities of KCa channels of patients with EH increase significantly.but the sensitivity to Ca 2+ decreased.NO?NOS may stimulate the KCa channels of normotensive and EH patients,but they may not be main factors in EH patients.

Objective To study the changes of liver blood flow with or without portal vein thrombus (PVTT) in hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods The hepatocellular carcinoma patients with PVTT (n=26) and without PVTT (n=35) were enrolled. The diameter and the velocity of hepatic arterial (HA) and portal vein (PV) were measured with color Doppler flow imaging in all patients. Results In the patients with PVTT, the diameter of PV dilated and the velocity of PV dropped significantly and the velocity of HA rised obviously, as compared with those without PVTT. Conclusion The index of HA and PA is very important to guide the therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma.
