Objective:To develop and study the properties of ion-exchange polyvinyl alcohol-acrylic acid microspheres(PVA-AA-Ms) for embolization.Methods:The PVA-AA-Ms were produced by the method of inverse suspension polymerization.The morphology and particle size were determined by optical microscope;FT-IR was used to investigate the special functional groups of PVA-AA-Ms;the carboxyl content of PVA-AA-Ms was measured by chemical titration;the compression elasticity was examined by texture analyzer(TA-plus).Pingyangmycin(bleomycin A5) was used as model drug to prepare drug-loaded PVA-AA-Ms.Drug loading and entrapment efficiency were measured through UV-spectrophotometer;in vitro drug release characteristic was detected by constant temperature vibration dialysis assay.Results:The PVA-AA-Ms were round and integrated.The average diameter of PVA-AA-Ms was 500 ?m with a range of 150-1 000 ?m.The carboxyl vibration was demonstrated by FT-IR and the content of carboxyl was 8.905 mmol/g.PVA-AA-Ms were mechanically stable with appropriate elasticity.Drug loading and entrapment efficiency were 30 g/L and 99.4%,respectively.The drug release rate was slow in phosphate buffer solution(PBS),88.3% of the drug was released after 24 h and the t50 was 2.19 h.Conclusion:PVA-AA-Ms prepared in this study were supposed to be suitable for clinical embolization according to the physicochemical properties.The high carboxyl content of PVA-AA-Ms which allowed them to load cationic drugs(e.g.,drug with amino group) through ion-exchange mechanism brought broad prospects for combination of embolization and chemotherapy.

Objective To study on the drug-resistance mechanism of Brucella resistance to Quinolone antibiotics to guide the selection and use of antimicrobial agents in clinical practice. Methods Six strains of Brucella melitensis(Bru1, Bru2, Bru3, Bru4, Bru5, Bru6) were selected to be induced resistance to levofloxacin in vitro respectively. The MICs of the 6 strains of Brucella melitensis and induced resistant strains were measured by agar dilution method. The sensitivity to Quinolone antibiotics (Levofloxacin, Ciprofloxacin, Lomefloxacin, Norfloxacin, Fleroxacin, Ofloxaein) of 6 strains of Brucella melitensis and induced resistant strains was measured by K-B method. The gyrA of the 6 strains of Brucella melitensis and induced resistant strains was amplified by PCR, then the nucleotide sequence of the genes were analyzed. Results The MICs of Bru1,Bru2,Bru3,Bru4, Bru6 were 0.50 μg/ml and Bru5 was 0.25 μg/ml. The strains Bin3, Bru4 were induced into drug-resistant strains by Levofloxacin, then were named LEVR3 and LEVR4 respectively. The MICs of LEVR3 and LEVR4 were 64,128 μg/ml with 128 and 256 times higher than that of the parental strains. The 6 strains of Brucella melitensis were sensitive to Quinolone antibiotics, LEVR3 and LEVR4 were resistant to Quinolone antibiotics. Neucleotide sequence analysis and comparison of the derived amino acid sequence revealed that Quinolone resistance-determing region of GyrA had a substitution at position Ala87 and Asp91 in laboratory resistant strains. Conclusion The results of in vitro experiments show that acquired resistance of Brucella melitensis strains to Levofloxacin could beinduced when exposed to high level of some antibacterial agents for short term. Two drug-resistant strains occur mutations in gyrA and have cross-resistance to other Quinolones.

OBJECTIVETo compare clinical outcomes of locking plate for proximal humeral fracture whether application of inferomedial screws.

METHODSFrom January 2012 to July 2013, 46 patients with proximal humeral fracture underwent locking plates were retrospectively analyzed. There were 25 males and 21 females aged from 29 to 80 years old with an average of 55.1 years old. Among them, 25 patients were treated with inferomedial screws (support group), including 13 males and 12 females aged from 38 to 80 years old with an average of (55.8 ± 11.8) years old; 8 cases were part two fracture,10 cases were part three fracture and 7 cases were part four fracture according to Neer classification. Twenty-one patients were treated without inferomedial screws (non-support group), including 12 males and 9 females aged from 29 to 79 years old with an average of (54.2 ± 14.8)years old; 6 cases were part two fracture, 9 cases were part three fracture and 6 cases were part four fracture according to Neer classification. Operative time, fracture healing time and complications were observed and compared, Neer scoring of shoulder joint were used to evaluate clinical effect.

RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 12 to 41 months with an average of 15.6 months. Operative time and fracture healing time in support group was (1.6 ± 0.4) h and (3.0 ± 0.6) months, and (1.5 ± 0.4) h and (3.1 ± 0.6) months in non-support group, while there was no statistical difference in operative time and fracture healing time between two groups. There was significant differences in Neer score between support group (89.7± 4.9) and non-support group (83.1 ± 7.1). No complication occurred in support group,while 4 cases occurred complications in non-support group.

CONCLUSIONLocking plate with inferomedial screws for proximal humeral fracture has advantages of stable fixation, less complications, quick recovery of function and satisfied clinical effect.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Qiangji Recipe (QR) in ad- junctive treatment of axial undifferentiated spondyloarthritis (axuSpA) through a four-week open study.

METHODSFifty-four axuSpA patients of Shen-deficiency Du-channel cold syndrome (SDDCS) in line with inclusive criteria were recruited and assigned to the treatment group and the control group according to random digit table, 27 in each group. Patients in the control group took Celecoxib Capsule (0.2 g each time, twice per day). Patients in the treatment group additionally took QR (consisting of Herba Epimedii 15 g, antler glue 15 g, Cibotium Barometz 15 g, eucommia bark 20 g, dipsacus asper 10 g, two toothed achyranthes root 15 g, drynaria 15 g, Taxillus Chinensis 20 g, ground beetle 10 g, scorpion 5 g, wild celery 10 g, notopterygium incisium 10 g, cow-fat seed 10 g, white mustard seed 6 g, and licorice root 6 g, one dose per day, twice daily). The therapeutic course for all was 4 weeks. The Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), the Bath AS Metrology Index (BASMI), total body pain and spinal pain, patient and physician global assessment on a four-point scale, the Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life (ASQoL), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were measured before and after 4 weeks of treatment. The primary end point in this study was the proportion of patients with a 20%improvement response accord- ing to the ASAS International Working Group Criteria (ASAS 20 responders) at week 4.

RESULTSTotally 50 patients completed this trial, 26 in the treatment group and 24 in the control group. Improvement of BASDAI, BASFI, BASMI, ASQoL, ESR, and CRP was shown in both groups after treatment. Better effect was shown in the treatment group in all indices except ESR and BASMI after treatment (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). Twenty cases (accounting for 76.92%) in the treatment group achieved ASAS 20 response at week 4, while 12 cases (accounting for 50.00%) in the control group achieved ASAS 20 response at week 4 (P < 0.05). No obvious adverse reaction occurred in the two groups.

CONCLUSIONQR combined Celecoxib Capsule showed better effect in treating axuSpA patients than using Celecoxib Capsule alone.
