ve To explore and improve the procedures of operation and experimental conditions of deter-mination of iodide in drinking water by catalytic reducing spectrophotometry. Methods The improved assay was carried out at room temperature instead of constant temperature water bath. The standard solution series [1~10?g/L or 10-100?g/L iodine(I-) ] were selected based on the contents of iodide in water samples estimated by "three-tube method" . The duration of catalytic reducing reaction was defined based on the decolorant intensity of Ce4+ observed by visual method. The linear regression equation of Ig E0/Ef ; (Eo: blank absorbance; Ei : standard absorbance) was used to replace the nonlinear standard curve of absorbance. Results The contents of iodide in blind water sample of analytical quality control determined by this method highly accorded with its ture value [(4.00?0.20)mg/L]provided by institution of analytical quality control. The linear regression equation of standard solution series was calculated by lg E0/Ei as y = 0.062x + 0.018(r = 0.999) . Conclusion The improved assay simplifying analytical instruments and operations was suitable for determination of iodide in drinking water in common laboratories.

Objective To observe the expression of Glu、mGluR 5 and EAAT 1 in bone tissues of ovariectomized osteoporotic rats and the effects of Total Flavonoids of Rhizoma Drynariae (TFRD) on it. Methods 45 SPF 3-month-old Sprague-Dawley (SD) female rats were randomly divided into sham operation (Sham, n=15) group and ovariectomized (OVX, n=30) group. The osteoporotic(OP) model was established by bilateral ovariectomy, 14 weeks later, we measured bone mineral density(BMD) by dual-energy X-ray and determined that OP model was successfully replicated, OVX group rats were then divided into OVX group (n=15) and OVX+TFRD group (n=15). The OVX+TFRD group was given TFRD for 12 weeks. Glutamate (Glu), metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR 5), and Glutamate/Aspartate Transporter (GLAST/EAAT 1)’s expression of femur was examined in order to clarify the characteristics of bone glutamate signaling pathway and the effects of TFRD on it. Results Glu and ionotropic receptors mGluR 5 mainly distributed in bone marrow cells and osteoblasts closed to the bone marrow cavity walls. There were no significant differences in Glu expression among Sham group, OVX group and OVX+TFRD group. The mGluR 5 expression of OVX+TFRD group was significantly higher than that of Sham group and OVX group(P=0.009), while no significant difference was found between the latter two groups. In addition to large distribution in bone marrow cells, small amount of transporter EAAT 1 was noted to express in bone cells of the bone lacunae. There were no significant differences in EAAT 1 expression among the three groups. Conclusion In bone glutamate signaling pathway, this study demonstrated that TFRD could significantly improve the ionotropic receptor mGluR 5’s expression, but had no inlfuence for Glu and EAAT 1.

AIM: To evaluate the therapeutic effect and safety of the rifamycin sodium injection (SV) in treatment of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. METHODS: 44 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis were randomly allocated to two groups: rifamycin sodium group and routine treatment group. Chemotherapy regimens: in the rifamycin sodium group, 21 cases were treated with the regimen of 2HZE+SV/7HR; and in the routine treatment group, 23 cases were treated with the regimen of 2HRZE/7HR. RESULTS: The sputum negative conversion rate of the rifamycin sodium group was 85.7 %, and the foci vanishing rate was 90.5 %, while the both rates in the routine treatment group were 60.9 % and 60.9 %, respectively. There was significant difference between the two groups (P

Objective To investigate hospital staffs' appraisals on public hospitals reform.Methods 890 medical staffs were randomly investigated by questionnaire,to learn their comments on the implementation of reform measures,public-benefit nature and reform outcomes of the reform,as well as problems found with the government and improvement suggestions,and difficulties encountered in such a reform.Results The hospital staffs' appraisals on the reform tend to be low,as 36.4％ of them hold that the reform is less effective in its outcomes or a mere formality (19.8％).The staff blamed the lack of system breakthrough (67.9％),lack of financial support (61.1％),and insufficient support from the doctors as stakeholders (49.1 ％),for most of the problems of the reform.Conclusion It is suggested to win over support of the medical staff for the reform; to improve the laws and policies related to the reform; and to establish an effective supervision system for public hospitals.

Objective To summarize the cl inical characteristics and imaging features of psittacosis. Methods The clinical features and imaging appearances of 3 cases with acute psittacosis were retrospectively analyzed. The related literature was reviewed . Results The clinical manifestation of psittacosis was high fever in the patients. Physical findings included pulse-temperature dis sociation, localized lung crackles, hepatomegaly, and splenomegaly. Laboratory findings showed elevation of ESR in all cases, and liver dysfunction was present in 2 cases. The counts of white blood cells were normal, but the percent of ne utrophils might be increased. The chest X-ray and CT scan showed air-space co nsolidation and ground-glass attenuation in the lung, and miliary, nodular, or consolidated shadows were found in pathological areas. Pleural effusions were a lso present in 2 cases. Psittacosis was diagnosed from the history of exposure to infected parrots and elevation of the IgG and IgM titer for Chlamydia psittac i. Erythromycin was effective in all 3 patients. Conclusion Although the appearance of psittacosis on clinical findings and chest X-r ay and CT scan is not characteristic, psittacosis can be diagnosed with the comb ination of the history of exposure to infected parrots and laboratory findings. CT scan can reveal the focus earlier and accurately, and catching the imaging f eatures of psittacosis is helpful in differential diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the association of the polymorphism of the N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2 )gene with isoniazid-induced hepatotoxicity and anti-tuberculous treatment efficacy in Chinese Han patients with tuberculosis(TB).Methods A total of 108 TB patients who received initial anti-TB treatment were followed up prospectively.A polymerase chain reaction direct sequencing approach was used to detect genetic polymorphisms of the NAT2 gene.Associations between NAT2 genotype and isoniazid-induced hepatitis/early treatment were analyzed.Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results Among the 108 TB patients, intermediate-acetylators (IA ) was the most frequent NAT2 genotype with the proportion of 54.63%(59/108).The proportion of rapid-acetylators(RA)was 33.33%(36/108),slow-acetylators (SA)was 10.19%(11/108)and super-rapid acetylators was 1 .85 % (2/108). Among the 20 patients who developed drug-induced hepatitis,2 were RA,5 were SA and 13 were IA. Regarding NAT2 genotype,RA patients had a lower incidence of hepatotoxicity (OR =0.176,95 %CI :0.038-0.809,P =0.014)and SA patients were more likely to developed drug-induced hepatic injury (OR=4.556,95 %CI :1 .231 -16.854,P =0.044 ).Statistical analysis revealed that the frequency of variant diplotypes,NAT2*4/*6A (OR=7.741 ,95 %CI :2.653-22.586,P <0.01 )and NAT2 *6A/*6A (OR=15 .353,95 %CI :1 .506 -156.552,P =0.020)were significantly increased in TB patients with hepatotoxicity.NAT2 *4/*4 was less likely to developed hepatic injury (OR =0.176,95 %CI :0.038-0.809,P =0.014).Among the 58 culture-positive patients,12(31 .03%)were persistent culture positive after 2 months standard therapy.Early treatment failure was observed with significantly higher incidence rate in RA than other genotypes (OR = 7.200, 95 % CI :1 .794-28.900, P = 0.008). Conclusions In Chinese Han TB patients,IA is the most frequent NAT2 genotype.The SA status of NAT2 is a risk factor of isoniazid-induced hepatotoxicity.The diplotype of NAT2 *6A has clearly high risk of isoniazid-induced hepatotoxicity.In contrast,NAT2 * 4/* 4 is protective diplotype.RA is associated with early treatment failure in culture-positive patients.
