Objective To summarize the distribution of departments,conditions of diagnosis and treatment of the syphilis patients in the general hospitals,and thus to improve the level of diagnosis and treatment.Methods A retrospective analysis of epidemiology and clinical data of 282 cases with syphilis in recent 5 years were conducted. Results The ratio of male to female was about 1:1.9.Female showed a high incidence in the 21 -50 years old,aver-age (41.68 ±0.96)years old,but for male in the 41 -70 years old,average (53.25 ±1.59)years old.The cases combined with other infectious diseases accounted to 22.0 % (62/282).The cases from the department of obstetrics and gynecology were the most (106 cases),followed by surgery (86 cases)and internal medicine (49 cases).Only 23 cases showed the clinical manifestations of syphilis in the 79 cases,which must be treated.The test rate of TRUST was only 39.0% (110/282).Furthermore,it was very low for the rate of treatment and standard treatment. Conclusion Syphilis is the most in department of obstetrics and gynecology in general hospital,and it is also com-mon in the surgery and internal medicine.The most prominent problems are that the non-special doctors had weak awareness for definite diagnosis of syphilis,and the low rate of treatment and standard treatment.

Objective To study the correlation of an ultra high performance liquid chromatography(UPLC)fingerprint of Xiaochengqitang pieces(decoction and granules).Methods The UPLC method was used to establish the fingerprint of 15 batches of Xiaochengqitang pieces(decoction and granules).The correlation of the three UPLC fingerprints was evaluated by similarity analysis,pearson correlation analysis,cluster analysis(CA),principal component analysis(PCA)and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA).Results UPLC fingerprints of 15 batches of Xiaochengqitang pieces(decoction and granules)determined 16 common peaks,and 14 peaks were identified.The similarity of the fingerprints of the 15 batches of Xiaochengqitang pieces(decoction and granules)with the corresponding control fingerprints was greater than 0.90,and the similarity of the three control fingerprints was greater than 0.88.The results of pearson correlation analysis showed that 8 common peaks in Xiaochengqitang pieces(decoction and granules)had a very significant positive correlation.The results of CA showed that the properties of Xiaochengqitang decoction and granules were more similar.The results of PCA showed that the principal components with 4 eigenvalues greater than 1 contained 88％of the information of the original data.OPLS-DA screened 7 differential markers with variable importance projection value greater than 1.Conclusion The main chemical compositions of Xiaochengqitang pieces(decoction and granules)are consistent,which can provide data support for the quality control and clinical use of Xiaochengqitang compound preparation.
