The results of drug activity of singe drug and multidrug combination susceptibility tests showed the coincidence rate between the two kinds of tests was above 95% . The results also indicated that the chemotherapy program consisted of resistant drugs exhibited an inhibitory effects to different extents on the growth of 40% strains in vitro. Using two resistant drugs and one susceptible drug in the susceptibility test of three drug combination assay the pathogenic strain was still susceptible. It is proved that the extents of susceptibility of pathogenic strains to chemotherapy programs could be accurately calculated by the time of initial growth , the colony count and the colony size in multidrug combination susceptibility test. The results suggested Kuang′s agar medium should be adapted in the drug susceptibility test and the multidrug combination susceptibility test should be carried out for multidrug resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

AIM: In order to evaluate and effectively control the quality of the Tibetan crude drug Herpetospermum pedunculosum,RP-HPLC fingerprint researches were conducted. METHODS: The gradient elution was applied in chromatographic separation,and 10 batches of samples from different producing areas were tested. RESULTS: Fingerprint chromatograms had a high similarity from different producing areas and batches showing 36 characteristic peaks in common. CONCLUSION: RP-HPLC is a repeatable method of controlling the fingerprint chromatograms,thus is practicable in the quality evaluation of Herpetospermum pedunculosum.Chemical components of samples from different producing areas and batches are similar,and the component ratios are stable.

The formulation for sustained release tablet of Epinedium component was selected and the evaluation equation of in vitro release was established. The liquidity of component was improved with the help of colloidal silica aided by spray drying, which would be the main drug in the sustained release tablets. Dissolution was selected as an evaluation index to investigate skeletal material type, fillers, impact porogen, lubricants and other materials on the quality of sustained release tablet. The sustained release tablets were prepared by dry compression. Formulation of sustained release preparations was main drug 35%, HPMC K(4M) 20% and HPMC K(15M) 10% as skeleton material, MCC 31% as filler, PEG6000 2% as porogen and magnesium stearate 2% as lubricant. The sustained release tablets released up to 80% in 8 h. The zero order equation, primary equation and Higuchi equation could simulate the release characteristics of sustained release tablets in vitro, the correlation coefficients r were larger than 0.96. The primary equation was most similar in vitro release characteristics and its correlation coefficient r was 0.9950. The preparation method is simple and the results of formulation selection are reliable. It can be used to guide the production of Epimedium component sustained release preparations.

Design of structurally-novel drug molecules with deep learning can overcome the technical bottleneck of classical computer-aided drug design. It has become the frontier of new technique research on drug design, and has shown great potential in drug research and development practice. This review starts from the basic principles of deep learning-driven de novo drug design, goes on with the brief introduction to deep molecular generation techniques as well as computational tools and the analysis on representative successful cases, and eventually provides our perspective for future direction and application prospect about this technique. This review will provide ideas on new technique research and references for new drug research and development practice to which this technique is applied.

Objective To analyze the antibiotic resistance of the carbapenem no-susceptibility Enterobacteriaceae isolated from pediatric patients and the resistant genes of carbapenemase-producing.Methods In all,46 carbapenem no-susceptibility Enterobacteriaceae strains were isolated from patients at Beijing Children's Hospital between January 2008 and December 2010.Agar dilution method recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute was used to examine the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 14 antimicrobial agents.Phenotypic testing for carbapenemase-producing was conducted using Hodge test and double-disk synergy test.PCR was used to detect the expression of the carbapenemase-related genes KPC,GES,IMI/NMC-A,SME,IMP,VIM,GIM,SPM,SIM and OXA.WHONET5.6 was used to perform resistance analysis.Results Among 46 carbapenem no-susceptibility Enterobacteriaceae strains,26 (56.5％) were Klebsiella pneumoniae strains,13(28.3％ ) were Enterobacter cloacae and 7( 15.2％ ) were Escherichia coli.The rates of imipenem and meropenem no-susceptibility Klebsiella pneumoniae were 69.2％ and 80.8％,Enterobacter cloacae were 76.9％ and 100％ and Escherichia coli were 85.7％ and 100％,respectively.40(87.0％ ) strains were positive of Hodge test.41 (89.1％) strains were positive of doubledisk synergy test.38 (82.6％) were positive for the IMP genotype.The carbapenemase-related genes were not found in other 8 strains.Conclusion The prevalence of carbapenem no-susceptibility Enterobacteriaceae strains in Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates is relatively high in children.Resistance to imipenem was lower than that to meropenem from Klebsiella pneumoniae,Enterobacter cloacae and Escherichia coli strains.Many carbapenem no-susceptibility Enterobacteriaceae isolated from pediatric patients carry the blaIMP gene.No the KPC gene was found.

200 papers on nerve root type cervical spondylosis treated with Chinese medicine were retrieved and 38 papers with complete diagnostic criteria and medical statistics were included for study. The results showed acupuncture, massage, and herbal therapy were three common methods and have their own advantage, but systemic, standardized and normative treatment program was lack. In the meantime of treating nerve root type cervical spondylosis, prevention should also be paid attention. The treatment, prevention and exercise on the whole therapeutic idea should be established, which has far-reaching significance.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of childhood systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with severe gastrointestinal manifestations,especially cases with acute and severe abdominal pain,so as to improve the recognition of severe and acute gastrointestinal manifestations of SLE during pediatric diagnosis and treatment.Methods Medical records of 119 patients with SLE under the age 16 years old in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from Jan.2010 to Mar.2013 were reviewed and gastrointestinal manifestations were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were diagnosed as SLE according to 1997 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) revised classification criteria.Results Gastrointestinal involvement was recorded in 24 children (20.2％).The median (range) age at the time of initial gastrointestinal manifestations was (13.5 ± 2.0) years (6-15 years).The ratio of female to male was 1.0 ∶ 2.4.And in 4 cases,gastrointestinal manifestations occurred as the initial symptoms.Abdominal pain was the most frequent symptom,present in 13 patients (54.2％),11 cases (45.8％) had nausea and vomiting,4 cases (16.6％) had abdominal distension,and 3 cases (12.5％) had diarrhea.Abnormal liver function was found by lab test in 8 cases,without obvious symptoms or the proofs of any virus infection.Acute and severe abdominal pain was found in 9 cases,of whom 6 patients were diagnosed as intestinal pseudo-obstruction (2 cases with bilateral ureterohydronephrosis),1 case had acute peritonitis with surgery,1 case was diagnosed as protein losing enteropathy and 1 case had acute pancreatitis.Liver impairment also occurred in SLE.All cases got alleviated with the treatment of steroids and immunosuppressive drugs.Significant difference was found in the occurrence of hydroureter and hydronephrosis and albumin concentrations between SLE digestive and non-digestive system involvement children.However,there was no remarkable difference in the erythrocyte sedimentation rate,or the involvement of kidney and blood system and central nervous system between the 2 groups.Conclusions SLE is a common autoimmune disease in children involving multiple systems.The severity of gastrointestinal involvement is underestimated.Gastrointestinal manifestations can be initial symptoms of SLE.Intestinal pseudo-obstruction,protein losing enteropathy,and acute pancreatitis are uncommon but severe gastrointestinal manifestations of SLE patients should be fully recognized.It is vital for pediatric physicians to make early diagnosis and begin timely treatment on SLE with Corticosteroid and cyclophosphamide.
