ObjectiveTo investigate the changes of serum creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB) and creatine kinase (CK) ratio(CK-MB/CK) and cardiac troponin I(cTnI) simultaneously in patients with acute organophosphorus pesticide poisoning (AOPP) and the clinical value in disease condition judgment.Methods Eight hundred and sixty-eight AOPP patients without disease history of heart,lung,brain,kidney,muscle and other connective tissue were extracted 4 ml of fasting venous blood to determine CK,CK-MB and cTnI simultaneously at 2,12,24,48,96 and 120 hours after poisoning,and the CK-MB/CK was calculated.There were 279 mild poisoning cases (mild poisoning group),289 moderate poisoning cases (moderate poisoning group) and 300 severe poisoning group (severe poisoning group) ; and 208 cases with intermediate myasthenia syndrome (IMS)(IMS group) and 660 cases without IMS (non-IMS group).The result was compared with 288 healthy people (control group) in the same period.Results ( 1 ) The CK,CK-MB and cTnI of mild,moderate and severe poisoning groups between 2 to 12 h,13 to 24 h,25 to 120 h after poisoning were significandy higher than those in control group,CK-MB/CK was obviously lower (P ＜ 0.01 ).The CK,CK-MB,cTnI and CK-MB/CK had significant differences between each two of mild,moderate and severe poisoning groups (P＜ 0.01 or ＜ 0.05).The CK,CK-MB and cTnI of IMS group in 2 to120 h after poisoning were significantly higher than those in non-IMS group,and CK-MB/CK was lower (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01 ).In IMS group,the rates of sudden cardiac death (SCD) and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) were 23.08％(48/208),37.50％(78/208) respectively,while 4.24％(28/660),9.85％(65/660) in non-IMS group.The incidence of SCD and MODS of two groups had statistical significance (P ＜ 0.01 ).(2) According to IMS and non-IMS group,discriminant equation with independent variables of cTnI (X1), CK (X2) and CK-MB/CK (X3) was established:Y =-0.0014X1 + 0.0225X2 + 65.2376X3,F=21.4911,P ＜ 0.01.The discriminant critical value(Y0) was 2.8124.If Y ＜ 2.8124 belonged to IMS group and Y ≥2.8124 was in non-IMS group,the contribution rates of X1,X2 and X3 were 34.5％,25.4％ and 40.1％ respectively.The coincident rate of return was 91.26％.ConclusionsCK-MB/CK change has negative correlation with poisoning degree of AOPP;cTnI level is positively correlated with AOPP poisoning degree.they may be used to assist the clinical classification,disease judgement and to guide the emergency,treatment and prognosis assessment of AOPP.The function equation with cTnI,CK and CK-MB/CK can be used as effective prediction indexes of IMS,MODS and SCD in early period.

AIM: To determine the concentration of escitalopram in human plasma by HPLC-MS/MS and investigate the pharmacokinetics of escitalopram. METH-ODS: The method involved protein precipitation with methanol. The chromatographic separation was achieved within 6.0 min by using methanol-water with 15 mmol·L-1 ammonium acetate-formic acid (72:28:O.1, v/v/v) as mobile phase and a Lichrospher CN 150 mm×4.6 mm analytical column. The analytes were detected using an electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry in SRM mode. Detection of the ions was performed by monitoring the transitions of m/z 325.0 to 234.0 for escitalopram and m/z 409.1 to 238.1 for amlodipine (intemal standard), respectively. RESULTS:The standard curve was linear ( r = 0. 999) over the concentration range of 0.20 - 50.00 ng· ml- 1. Accuracy and precision were below the acceptance limits of 15%. The recoveries of escitalopram ranged from 96.0% to 103.6%. The lower limit of quantification for escitalopram was 0.20 ng· ml-1 using 200 μl plasma sample.The pharmacokinetic parameters of escitalopram after a single oral dosing of escitalopram oxalate tablet (10 rog)to ten healthy male volunteers were achieved. The Cmax, Tmax, AUC0-t, AUC0-∞, t1/2 and Ke of escitalopram were 9.21±2.10 ng·ml-1 , 3.75±1.04 h, 514.6±152.3 ng·h·ml-1 ,540.5±162.3 ng·h·ml-1 , 34.06±7.71 h and 0.021±0.004 h-1,respectively. CONCLUSION:The determination of concentration of escitalopram in human plasma by HPLC-MS/MS method was repid, sensitive and reliable. It can be used for clinical pharmacokinetic study of escitalopram.

Objective:To study the difference in dissolution behavior of clozapine tablets in four different media between the do-mestic preparations and original preparation to compare the internal quality of the tablets from various manufacturers and provide refer-ence for the drug control. Methods:Referring to the methods of in vitro dissolution test, the dissolution profiles of 46 batches of sam-ples from 18 pharmaceutical enterprises were determined in four kinds of dissolution media with different pH values, and the results were compared with that of the original drug by the method of f2 similarity factor. Results: Totally 46 dissolution profiles were drawn out. The profiles of two batches of samples from one pharmaceutical enterprise were similar to that of the original drug, which account-ing for 4%, and that of the other samples showed notable difference from that of the original drug. Conclusion:The preparation tech-nology of the tablets from domestic has great difference, which leads to significant difference in dissolution behavior. The screening and optimization of the production process in domestic pharmaceutical enterprises should be strengthened to improve the preparation technol-ogy of clozapine tablets.

Summary: In order to study the expression of IL-1β and TNF-α in the myocardium of MCMV myocarditis and their role in the myocardial damages, 60 BALB/C mice of 4 weeks were randomly divided into two groups: 36 were injected intraperitoneally with MCMV and 24 served as control group. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect IL-1β and TNF-α expression in the myocardium, and myocardial lesions were observed histopathologically. Histopathological study on the myocardium from infected mice revealed focal or diffuse lesions characterized by inflammatory cells and degeneration or necrosis of myocytes. The myocardial lesion score showed the degree of inflammatory cell infiltration was slight in MCMV myocarditis.The positive staining signals for IL-1β and TNF-α proteins which mainly located in the infiltrating inflammatory cells and degenerative or necrotic myocytes were markedly detectable whereas there were no positive findings in the myocardium of control mice. IL-1β and TNF-α was expressed in the myocardium of viral myocarditis murine model induced by MCMV. IL-1β and TNF-α may play an important role in the pathogenesis of viral myocarditis.

OBJECTIVETo study the biomechanical properties of the new bone generated by mandibular distraction osteogenesis (DO).

METHODSA total of 11 healthy adult goats were randomly divided into 2 groups, the experimental group (n=9) and the control group (n=2). For the goats in the experimental group, the bilateral mandibles were gradually lengthened for 10 mm with distraction appliances. Three goats were sacrificed respectively at 2, 4 and 8 weeks after completion of distraction. Compressive, three-point bending and shearing tests were conducted on the standard regenerated bone samples and the whole unilateral mandibular specimens. For the goats in the cont rol group, no operation was made and the whole unilateral mandible was taken as the test specimen.

RESULTSThe compressive strength and bending stiffness of the new bone reached the normal level at 4 and 8 weeks after completion of distraction, respectively. But the shearing strength remained significantly weaker than that of the controls at 8 weeks after distraction.

CONCLUSIONSThe distraction appliance can be removed and the lengthened mandible should be exposed to adaptive functional exercise at 8 weeks after completion of distraction.
