Objective To search for the anticancer active substance from Caesalpinia sappan wood extractions. Methods Crude extracts were extracted from Caesalpinia sappan wood with different solvents.Liquid chromatography was applied to analyze the content of each essential component in the extraction fractions. Trypan blue exclusion test was performed to detect the growth suppression rate of human bladder carcinoma cell line T24 treated by the extraction fractions at different time course (20,40,60,80,100 min).The main component positively correlated with the cell suppression rate was separated out using repeated chromatography, thus the anticancer active monomer was obtained, with purity over 98 ％. The chemical constitution was determined using NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance), mass spectrum and infrared spectrum methods. T24 cell line, human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3, mice sarcoma S180 and hepatic carcinoma H22 cell were chosen as target subjects, with mitomycin, hydroxycamptothecin as positive control drug, the inhibitory activity of the monomer was tested by trypan blue chromophobia method. Results Among the extraction fractions, R12 has a positive correlation with the cell suppression rate (r100 min=0.941, P＜0.001).Brazilin is the key component in R12.The inhibition rate of brazilin could reach 90.89 ％,98.65 ％,99.82 ％ and 100.00 ％ on T24,SKOV3,S180 and H22 respectively in 40 min at the concentration of 1.2 mg/ml,and its effect is much superior to that of the control drug mitomycin and hydroxycamptothecin. Conclusion Brazilin is one of the essential anticancer principles in Caesalpinia sappan wood.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of transurethral pneumatic ballistic lithotripsy via outer sheath of ureterorenoscope for bladder calculi. Methods From March 2003 to May 2007, 32 patients with bladder calculi were treated by transurethral pneumatic ballistic lithotripsy via outer sheath of ureterorenoscope. Results The operation was completed in all the patients without conversion to open surgery. Transurethral prostatectomy (TURP) was carried out on 22 patients who were complicated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Four patients received cystotrachelotomy because of bladder-neck contracture, and 4 underwent dilation of the urethra owning to urethral stenosis. Simple pneumatic ballistic lithotripsy was performed on two patients. The operation time was 25 to 90 minutes with a mean of (45?25) minutes. No patient had residual stones or perforation of bladder. One patient developed urethral stenosis after the operation. Conclusions Transurethral pneumatic ballistic lithotripsy via outer sheath of ureterorenoscope is a safe, less traumatic treatment for patients with bladder calculi with few complications. The method is especially suitable for patients with BPH.

Objective To investigate effects of driving fatigue on auditory involuntary attention.Method Between-groups design was used.The control group included 13 taxi drivers after adequate rest while the fatigue group included 13 taxi drivers who had been driving for 10 h.Auditory oddball pattern was adopted.The standard stimulus was 800 Hz,probability 80%;target stimulus was 1 000 Hz,probability 10%;novel stimulus was sound generated by computer or other sound,probability 10%.Subjects were asked to press the mouse upon hearing the target sound.Result The distribution of P3a was mainly around the frontal-central area of the subjects in control group;the amplitude of P3a was evidently lowered in subjects after driving fatigue.Conclusion The ability of auditory involuntary attention declines after driving fatigue.

Objective To investigate the risk factors associated with delayed encephalopathy (DE)occurrence in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning.Methods The clinical data of 249 patients with CO poisoning were retrospectively reviewed.Potential risk factors associated with occurrence of DE,including gender,age,duration of exposure to CO,time interval between onset and arrival in hospital,mental status after onset,oxygen therapy approach,were evaluated by univariate analysis of x2 test and multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results Age and duration of exposure to CO was significandy related with occurrence of DE in patients with CO poisoning.The occurrence of DE in patients with CO poisoning with age 60-75 years was 3.236 times and 2.119 times as much as that with age 3-17 years and 18-59 years respectively.Occurrence of DE was 4.338 times in patients with duration of exposure to CO ≥12 hours compared to that ＜ 12 hours.Conclusions Age ≥ 60 years and duration of exposure to CO ≥ 12 hours are independent risk factors for developing D E.Old patients have a inclination to develop D E.To evacuate patients from CO environment timely is important for preventing from DE.

Objective To observe the effects of brazilin on proliferation and apoptosis in T24 cells.Methods Trypan blue exclusion test was performed to detect the inhibition of brazilin on the growth of T24 cell lines in vitro cultured within different time.After exposure to different concentrations of brazilin,homogeneous bioluminescence assay was used to detect the inhibitory action of brazilin,Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 activity on T24 cells.Cellular apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry (FCM) and observed by laser scanning confocal microscope.Results Brazilin could significantly inhibit the proliferation of T24 cells after 8 hours,the inhibitory rates of the brazilin at concentration of 25,50,100,200 μg/ml against T24 cells respectively were 43.19 ％,60.73 ％,86.38 ％ and 93.89 ％ (P ＜ 0.05).After exposured to 50 μg/ml of brazilin,the inhibition ration to T24 cells increased with time prolonging (52.72 ％ in 4 h,60.73 ％ in 8 h,91.77 ％ in 24 h,96.41％ in 48 h) (P ＜ 0.05).The activity of Caspase-3 and Caspase-9 increased slightly when brazilin was at 25 μg/ml,but there was no statistical differences compared with that in the control group (P ＞ 0.05).When cells were treated with an increase of the concentration of brazilin from range of 7.5-60 μg/ml for 16 hours,the apoptosis ratio in turn showed a upward trend of 0.15 ％,1.35 ％,2.91％,34.76 ％.It could be seen by laser scanning confocal microscope that the apoptosis occurred in the cells.Conclusion Brazilin can effectively inhibit the proliferation of T24 cells and induce apoptosis in a dose and time dependent manner.
