OBJECTIVE:To validate the microbial limit tests of Shuanghuanglian oral liquid.METHODS:The recovery rates of 4 kinds of test organisms including E.coli treated by Shuanghuanglian oral liquid were detected by routine method,culture medium dilution method,and membrane-filter procedure respectively.RESULTS:Shuanghuanglian oral liquid was found to be of bacteriostatic action.The contamination of solution couldn't be detected by routine method.The recovery rate of the test organisms detected by membrane-filter procedure was higher than by culture medium dilution method,but the recovery rates in both methods were all up to the requirement.CONCLUSION:Membrane-filter procedure should be considered preferentially in performing microbial limit test for Shuanghuanglian oral liquid.
2.New challenge of liver surgery: associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy
Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2016;15(5):428-430
An innovative approach,named associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS),has made possible a marked increase in future liver remnant (FLR) over a short period of time,and has challenged the concept of unresectability.To date,ALPPS has been employed for a variety of primary and metastatic liver tumors from many centers across the world.Many technical variations of ALPPS have been described.However,much controversy has surrounded this procedure,and many problems remain to be solved,such as the reasons for rapid hypertrophy,the technical feasibility,safety and long-term oncologic outcomes,and the result compared with the conventional two-stage hepatectomy.These aspects are needed to be evaluated further in large-scale studies.We believe that the ALPPS procedure will has much room for further development.

Herald of Medicine 2015;(9):1139-1141
Objective To explore the effect of oleanic acid on key enzyme activity in insulin-resistant HepG2 cells. Methods The HepG2 cells were divided into normal control,model control,metformin,and oleanic acid groups.Glycogen content in insulin-resistant HepG2 cell model were detected by hepatic glycogen test kit upon treatment with oleanic acid.Activities of glucokinase ( GK) ,phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase kinase (PEPCK),and glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-Pase) were assayed by the glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase coupling colorimetric, lactate dehydrogenase coupling colorimetric and ammonium molybdate constant phosphorus methods. Results The oleanic acid enhanced glucose consumption,lowered the activity of G-6-Pase and PEPCK by 54.8% and 18.8%,respectively,and increased the activity of GK and glycogen content in also insulin-resistant HepG2 cells by 100.6% and 98.6%,respectively. Conclusion Aqueous extracts of shirako play a role in lowering PEPCK and G-6-Pase activities and inhibiting glucogenesis, resulting in the reduction of endogenous glucose in the cell. In addition,it can augment the activity of GK,accelerate the process of glucolysis,increase the glycogen content,and alleviate insulin resistance of HepG2.
4.Clinical application value of whole-brain CTA-CTP imaging in cerebral arteriovenous malformation
Journal of Practical Radiology 2016;32(12):1834-1837
Objective To explore the clinical application value of whole-brain CTA-CTP imaging in cerebral arteriovenous malformation (cAVM).Methods Fifteen patients diagnosed with cAVM by CTA-CTP imaging were included in this retrospective analysis study. The angioarchitecture of cAVM lesions were recorded from 4D-CTA images.Using DSA as the golden standard,the diagnostic accuracy of 4D-CTA was evaluated in 13 cases.The perfusion patterns of vessel nidus and peritumoral tissues were analyzed from the CTP images.Bleeding ratios of patients with different angioarchitecture and perfusion patterns were compared.Results 4D-CTA could dynamically display the angioarchitecture details of cAVM lesions and show the whole process of the contrast agent in and out of the vessel nidus.Although the result of 4D-CTA was consistent with that of DSA in most cases,a few fine feeding arteries and draining veins were missed.The nidus in thirteen cases was with high perfusion and the peritumoral tissues were with low perfusion.Another two cases were with low perfusion due to the presence of hematoma.Nine cAVMs suffered from small size,single feeding artery,deep venous drainage and vessel nidus with increased MTT,peritumoral tissues with decreased MTT were more likely to suffer a hemorrhage (P<0.05).Conclusion Whole-brain CTA-CTP imaging could be a valuable adjunct in noninvasive diagnosis of cAVM and predicting the bleeding risk factors.
