OBJECTIVE:A RP-HPLC method was established to determine the concentration of ambroxol hydrochloride in human plasma.METHODS:Waters HPLC instrument was used with the Hypersil BDS C 18 column(5?m,250mm?4.6mm). Ditiazem hydrochloride was chosen as the internal standard.The mobile phase was composed of acetonitrile-methyl alcohol-0.01mol/L phosphatic buffer(pH7.0)-tetrahydrofuran(35∶35∶27.5∶2.5).Flow rate was1.0ml/min.Detection wavelength was242nm.A single oral dose of90mg imported ambroxol hydrochloride tablet was given to9healthy male volunteers.Ambro xol concentration in plasma was assayed.RESULTS:The standard curve of ambroxol hydrochloride was linear in the range of10~640ng/ml.The minium detection concentration was10ng/ml.The extraction recovery was more than90%.A one-compartment open pharmacokinetic model was adopted in ambroxol plasma concentration-time data analysis.The main pharmac okinetic parameters were as follows:C max =(226.53?34.59)ng/ml,T max =(1.82?0.80)h,T 1/2ke =(6.27?0.66)h,AUC 0~24 =(2363.55?448.86)ng/(h?ml).CONCLUSION:The method is simple.The sensitivity and accuracy are high.It is applicable to study the pharmacokinetics of ambroxol hydrochloride in healthy male volunteers.

Objective: To study the nursing of patients with morbid obesity treated with laparoscopic vertical banded gastroplasty (LVBG). Methods: Before operation, obese degree, obesity-related conditions and mental states were examined routinely. Monitoring of respiratory tract, observing operative complications and instructing of diets were done after operation. Results: Among 6 patients, 5 were at the third degree of obese, one was at second. In obesity-related conditions, 4 patients had hypertension and acantha derma, 1 had arthritis, and all had respiratory sleeping syndrome. The operations were all successful. The food amount food and body weight both decreased significantly 1 month after operation. The common operative complications were mild bleeding (1 case), shoulder-back pain (1 case), nausea and vomiting (5 cases). Diet principle was high protein, low energy, liquid food was the first choice. Conclusion: Observing and preventing respiratory sleeping syndrome are the main points of postoperative cares. Instructing patients to establish correct diet habit is the key to reach the best efficacy of LVBG.

AIM To investigate the effect of aspirin on the proliferation and NOS expression in astrocytoma cell line, and probe into its mechanism. METHOD The effect of aspirin on the growth of astrocytoma cells was evaluated by MTT assay; NOS protein levels were determined by immunocytochemistry, NO and CEA concentration in the medium were determined by Griess assay and lepton catch immunising method respectively. RESULTS Aspirin inhibited the growth of astrocytoma cells, induced the expression of iNOS, increased the concentration of NO in the medium. The effects of these were centratoin dependent. Moreover, aspirin reduced the concentration of CEA in the medium. CONCLUSION Aspirin inhibits the growth of astrocytoma cell line. Up regulated iNOS expression resulting a increase of NO concentration are ascribed to mechanism of antiproliferation activity of aspirin. CEA is a good indicator in monitoring curative effect of astrocytoma.

Objective To observe the role of short-term use of megestrol acetate in reducing the toxicity of chemotherapy in breast cancer and in improving the quality of life of patients, as well as its impact on neo-adjuvant chemotherapy effects. Methods The effection of adjuvant chemotherapy, toxicity, and the quality of life of 158 patients with breast cancer were investigated by a retrospective control study. The data were statistically analysized by X~2 test. Results There was no significant difference of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy effects between Megestrol acetate + CEF chemotherapy group and vitamin C + CEF chemotherapy group (Megestrol acetate + CEF chemotherapy group was 74. 84%, vitamin C + CEF chemotherapy group was 76.15) ; Megestrol acetate + CEF chemotherapy group had more modest bone marrow suppression and gas-trointestinal reactions and better food intake, weight, KPS score than vitamin C + CEF Chemotherapy group, all the differences being statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Short-term use of megestrol ace-tate can reduce the adverse effects derived from chemotherapy of breast cancer and improve the quality of life of patients with breast cancer and had no effects on the efficacy of the neo-adjuvant chemotherapy.

Objective To probe into the medical practicing of neurosurgery, thoracic surgery, and cardiac and great vessels surgery in Shanghai, discovering measures and suggestions for improvement Methods Such methods as onsite inspection and questionnaires were called into play to study the practice of neurosurgery, thoracic surgery, and cardiac and great vessels surgery in 68 secondary and tertiary hospitals. Results Such three disciplines in the 68 hospitals have in total 3288 beds, 1142 medical practitioners, 19 assistant medical practitioners, and 1983 nurses. In 10 of the 68 hospitals, the medical space for these disciplines is non-standard; In 3 hospitals, personnel use is non-standard in general; 8% of the medical records are incompliant in generals 15% of the prescriptions are incompliant in general. Conclusion Medical practicing of neurosurgery, thoracic surgery, and cardiac and great vessels surgery in Shanghai is found to be legally compliant in general. However, there exist defects in medical space, personnel use, as well as medical records and prescriptions. In this regard, enhanced management and inspection are recommended.
