Capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) was developed to investigate the structure stability of novel camptothecin derivative (L-P) at different pH,the kinetics and thermodynamics of hydrolysis reaction from lactone form to carboxylate form direction at near physiological conditions (pH 7.4,310 K). Uncoated fused-silica capillaries(35 cm×50 μm i. d,with effective length of 26.5 cm) were used. The background electro-lyte( BGE) was 0.025 mol/L sodium phosphate buffer with pH varied at 2.5,4.0,5.0,6.0,7.0,7.4 and 9. 0. The electrophoresis voltage was maintained at 14 kV when the pH of BGE ranged between 2.5 and 5.0,otherwise,the voltage was maintained at 10 kV. The UV detector was set at 260 nm. All samples were introduced using hydrodynamic injection at 5 kPa for 4 s. L-P was found to be lactone form as the solution pH was below 4. 0. As pH increased,the lactone form of L-P would undergo hydrolysis reaction to be carboxylate form. As pH was 9.0,L-P existed almost completely as carboxylate form. The rate constant of the hydrolysis increased as temperature raise. The energy of activation ( Ea) ,the enthalpy ( ΔH) and entropy (ΔS) of the hydrolysis reaction were determined as 72. 6 kJ/mol,10. 5 kJ/mol and 50. 9 J/( mol K) ,respectively. The proposed capillary zone electrophoresis could efficiently separate two pH-dependent structural forms of the novel camptothecin derivative( L-P). The positive enthalpy and entropy values of the L-P hydrolysis indicated that the reaction was endothermic and entropically driven and higher temperature favored.

Aim To investigate the changes of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) in cardiomyocytes after acute myocardial infarction and the impact of simvastatin on HO-1 expression in rats.Methods Myocardial infarction models were made by anterior descending coronary artery ligation on male SD rats whereas sham group by spurious ligation.Survivals were randomized into myocardial infarction(MI) group,simvastatin(Sim) group and sham group 24 hours after the operation.The Sim group was treated with simvastatin 40 mg?kg-1?d-1 via gavage till sacrifice.MI and sham groups were gavaged with equal volume of 0.9% NaCl at the same time.Rats were sacrificed at time points of 24 hours,7 days and 28 days after the operation,for the detection of HO-1 mRNA by RT-PCR,HO-1 protein level by Western bolt,activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and content of malondialdehyde(MDA) by spectrophotometric method in non-infarcted zone.Results Expression of HO-1 mRNA and protein level increased at 24 hours,peaked at 7 days and decreased to basal levels at 28 days.All the indexes at each time point mentioned above were significantly higher in MI group than those in sham group.At the 7th day and 28 th day after the operation,the indexes were higher in Sim group than those in MI group(P

OBJECTIVETo investigate the application value of chemiluminescence method (CMIA) detection of Treponema pallidum (TP) specific antibodies in the blood test.

METHODSOver the same period the de novo enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Abbott chemical luminescence method were used to detect the specific antibody of syphilis in a total of 66298 samples; TP-ELISA negative and TP-CMIA positive unpaid blood donation blood samples for syphilis specific antibody were detected and confirmed by Western blot.

RESULTSBlood samples from 66298 blood donors were detected by TP-ELISA, the positive samples was 250 and the positive rate was 0.38%. The positive samples of TP-CMIA was 297, the positive rate was 0.45%, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The blood samples of 47 unpaid blood donors were confirmed by TP-Western blot method, as a result, 32 samples were positive, 15 were negative, and result detected by TP-ELISA method was negative.

CONCLUSIONTP-CMIA sensitivity is higher than that of TP-ELISA, and possesses higher sensitivity and specificity, and quick detection, simple operation, easy automation, suggesting greater application value in blood detection of Treponema pallidum.

more coincidence with ultrasound than SPECT. ConclusionsUltrasonography is a noninvasive method for assessing the effect of multiple burr-hole operation in patients with moyamoya disease.

Objective To evaluate the value of ultrasound in assessing superficial temporal arterymiddle cerebral artery(STA-MCA)anastomosis in patients with moyamoya disease.Methods Ultrasonic Doppler studies were made pre-and postoperatively in 25 patients with moyamoya disease undergoing STAMCA anastomosis.The peak systolic velocity(PSV),end diastolic velocity(EDV),pulsatility index(PI)and resistance index(RI)were measured in external carotidartery(ECA) and superficial temporal artery (STA)pre-and postoperatively.The pattern of the collateral circulation through the bypass was categorized based on postoperative external carotid angiograms.Thus three categories were determined as extensive,moderate and poor.The patients were divided into three groups based on the pattern of the collateral circulation through the bypass,which was determined based on the angiographic findings.PSV,EDV,PI,RI of STA was compared between groups.Results ①The values of the PSV,EDV of anastomosed STA were significantly higher and the values of PI,RI were significantly lower after operation.②The values of the PSV,EDV of the anastomosed ECA tended to be higher and the values of PI,RI tended to be lower in postoperation patients,but the differences were not significant within preoperation and postoperation group.③The Values of the PSV,EDV of the anastomosed STA were significantly different among the groups.The PSV.EDV tended to be higher and the PI,RI tended to be lower in patients with more extensive bypass flow.④The blood flow direction of STA was from extracranial to intracranial.Conclusions The PSV,EDV,PI,RI of STA can predicting the extent of collateral flow through an STA-MCA bypass.Color Doppler ultrasonography is a noninvasive method of assessing the function of STA-MCA bypass in patients with moyamoya disease.

The dynamic enhancement images were stored and Strip enhancement was dominant in the primary pulmonary tumors,while dot enhancement was dominant in ascended quickly and descended slowly,while ascended slowly and descended slowly in majority of metastaticThe modes of enhancement and time-intensity curves were all different in primary and metastatic pulmonary tumors.Contrast-enhanced uhrasound is promising in the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary tumors.

Objective To analyze the efficacy of high-frequency ultrasound in the clinical diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS),and to study the suitable diagnostic indicators and criteria of CTS for Chinese population.Methods High-frequency ultrasound was used to scan the median nerves of 67 CTS wrists and 67 normal wrists at the entrance,the middle and the outlet of carpal tunnels,and measured the cross-sectional area,diameter and flattening rate.Statistical analysis was used to evaluate the sensitivity,specificity,and AUC of ROC curve of the different parts of carpal tunnels.Results Compared with normal subjects,the CTS patients has larger cross-sectional area,diameter and flattening value of the median nerve in different parts of the carpal tunnel,and the differences are statistically significant (all P＞0.05).Among the measured indicators,the cross-sectional area of the median nerve at the entrance of the carpal tunnel has a better AUC value and good diagnostic sensitivity and specificity.Conclusion High-frequency ultrasonography has potential clinical significance for CTS diagnosis.The cross-sectional area of the median nerve at the entrance of the carpal tunnel can be used as a CTS diagnostic indicator for Chinese population,and it has good diagnostic sensitivity and specificity.

Background/Aims: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may contribute to the development of hematologic malignancies. In this study, the potential relationship between IBD and hematologic malignancies was investigated. Methods: We searched the PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases for all cohort studies comparing the incidence of hematologic malignancies in non-IBD populations with that in IBD patients, and we extracted relevant data from January 2000 to June 2023 for meta-analysis. Results: Twenty cohort studies involving 756,377 participants were included in this study. The results showed that compared with the non-IBD cohort, the incidence of hematologic malignancies in the IBD cohort was higher (standardized incidence ratio [SIR]=3.05, p<0.001). According to the specific types of IBD, compared with the non-IBD patients, the incidences of hematologic malignancies in ulcerative colitis patients (SIR=2.29, p=0.05) and Crohn's disease patients (SIR=3.56, p=0.005) were all higher. In the subgroup analysis of hematologic malignancy types, compared with the control group, the incidences of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (SIR=1.70, p=0.01), Hodgkin's lymphoma (SIR=3.47, p=0.002), and leukemia (SIR=3.69, p<0.001) were all higher in the IBD cohort. Conclusions The incidence of hematologic malignancies, including non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, Hodgkin's lymphoma, and leukemia is higher in patients with IBD (ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease) than in non-IBD patients.
