Results Chlorogenic Acid was linear in the range of 10.01～60.06 ?g, r =0.999 9 (n =6). The average recovery rate was 99.03%, RSD=1.12% (n =6). Conclusion The method is simple, credibility, reproducable, and can be used for the quality control of David's Blunt.

Information of metabolic enzymes and transporters, physiological parameters of animals and demography of Chinese people were integrated to establish a digital liver model (DLM) based on metabolism and transporter and coded with VBA. Clearance and drug-drug interaction (DDI) of candidate drugs in animal and human could be predicted based on the pharmacokinetic data obtained from in vitro and in vivo experiments. Pravastatin and pitavastatin were selected as the samples to examine this model, where their clearance and their DDI with cyclosporine were predicted. The results showed that the predicted values of median parameters in same species were within twofold of observed values for 83.3% (5/6). The program's successful prediction in DDI tendency might indicate its application in optimizing the dosage regimen and reducing the risk of clinical trial.

Objective To study the etiology of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in Tibetan population at high altitude area.Methods Data of patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) from January 2013 to January 2016 were retrospectively collected.Tibetan and Han patients were selected.According to AP diagnosis criteria, the patients were divided into SAP and non-severe acute pancreatitis (NSAP).Chi square test and multiple Logistic regression analysis were used for data analysis.Results There were 53 Tibetan SAP patients, 98 Tibetan NSAP patients, and 47 Han SAP patients.The results of etiology analysis indicated that the ratios of biliary diseases caused pancreatitis in Tibetan SAP patients, Tibetan NSAP patients and Han SAP patients were 5.7% (3/53), 51.0% (50/98) and 6.4% (3/47), respectively;those alcohol caused pancreatitis were 39.6% (21/53), 10.2% (10/98) and 34.0% (16/47), respectively;those hyperlipidemia caused pancreatitis were 39.6% (21/53), 9.2% (9/98) and 40.4% (19/47), respectively;those drug caused pancreatitis were 1.9% (1/53), 2.0% (2/98) and 2.1% (1/47), respectively;those infection caused pancreatitis were 1.9%(1/53), 6.1%(6/98) and 2.1%(1/47), respectively;those trauma caused pancreatitis were 1.9%(1/53), 5.1%(5/98) and 2.1%(1/47), respectively;those other reasons were 3.8% (2/53), 13.3% (13/98) and 4.3% (2/47), respectively;and those unexplained pancreatitis were 5.7% (3/53), 3.1% (3/98) and 8.5% (4/47), respectively.The ratio of biliary diseases caused pancreatitis in Tibetan SAP patients was lower than that of Tibetan NSAP patients (5.7%, 3/53 vs 51.0%, 50/98), however the ratios of alcohol and hyperlipidemia higher than those of Tibetan NSAP patients (39.6%, 21/53 vs 10.2%, 10/98;39.6%,21/53 vs 9.2%, 9/98), and the differences were statistically significant (x2=31.069, 18.246 and 20.019, all P<0.01).Biliary disease was the independent etiology of NSAP in Tibetan (odd ratios (OR)=20.668, 95% confidence interval (CI) 5.072 to 59.427, P<0.01), but alcohol (OR=16.007, 95%CI 3.700 to 45.654) and hyperlipidemia disease (OR=11.590, 95%CI 2.581 to 33.859) were the independent etiologies of SAP (both P<0.01).There was no statistically significant difference in etiology of SAP between Tibetan and Han (P>0.05).Conclusion The etiology of SAP in high altitude Tibetan people is different from that of NSAP, however there is no difference in etiology of SAP between Tibetan and Han in the same area.

Objective To compare the efficacy of intravitreal injection of ranibizumab and bevacizumab in the treatment of pathological myopia choroidal neovascularization (PM-CNV).Methods It is a retrospective case study.Seventy-nine patients (79 eyes) with PM-CNV were enrolled in this study.There were 26 males (26 eyes) and 53 females (53 eyes),with the mean age of (30.77 ± 5.53) years.The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA),intraocular pressure,slit lamp microscope,fundus color photography,fundus fluorescein angiography,and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were performed.BCVA was recorded as logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR).The central retinal thickness (CMT) was measured by OCT (Cirrus HDOCT).The eyes were divided into bevacizumab treatment group (38 eyes) and ranibizumab treatment group (41 eyes).There was no difference of the mean logMAR BCVA,intraocular pressure and CMT between two groups (t=-0.467,-1.983,1.293;P=0.642,0.051,0.200).The eyes in bevacizumab treatment group were treated with bevacizumab 0.05 ml (1.25 mg),and the eyes in ranibizumab treatment group were treated with ranibizumab 0.05 ml (0.5 rag).Times of injection between two groups were compared.The changes of intraocular pressure were observed at 1,7 days and 1 month after treatment.The changes of logMAR BCVA and CMT at 1,3,6,12 and 24 months after treatment and systemic adverse reactions occur were compared.Results At the 1,3,6,12 and 24 months after treatment,the mean logMAR BCVA of the bevacizumab treatment group and the ranibizumab treatment group was significantly improved than that before treatment (F=132.374,P＜0.01).There was no significant difference in the mean logMAR BCVA at different time points between the two groups (F=0.095,P=0.759).The mean CMT of the two groups was lower than that before treatment (F=151.653,P＜0.01).There was no significant difference in the mean CMT between the two groups (F=0.332,P=0.566).No retinal detachment,endophthalmitis,cataract and persistent high intraocular pressure were associated with drug,injection-related eye and systemic adverse events during follow-up.Seven eyes had conjunctiva bleeding after treatment,11 patients (11 eyes) complained of shadow floaters after treatment.Conclusion Intravitreal injection ofbevacizumab or ranibizumab can equally effectively improve the visual acuity and reduce the CMT of PM-CNV patients.

Background The primary reason to trabeculectomy failure is fibrosis of conjunctiva and episclera because of progressive fibroblast proliferation and collagen deposition of the filtration bleb.Conventional methods of inhibiting bleb scarring was intraoperative application of mitomycin C (MMC),but many complications occured after surgery.Researches showed that bevacizumab was an antifibrotic agent,and whether it can suppress scarring of filtering bleb after trabeculectomy is concerned.Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the antifibrotic efficacy of bevacizumab after trabeculectomy in rabbits.Methods Forty New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into four groups.Trabeculectomy was performed on the right eyes of each rabbits.The rabbits received subconjunctival injection of 0.05 ml bevacizumab (25 mg/ml) at the end of operation in the bevacizumab single injection group.The same dose of bevacizumab was respectively injected at the end of operation as well as 3 days and 7 days after operation in the bevacizumab repitition injection group,and 0.05 ml normal saline solution was used in the same way in the normal saline group.In the MMC group,MMC cotton patch with 0.2 mg/ml was placed under the Tenon caplsule and scleral flap for 3 minutes during operation.The intraocular pressure (IOP),bleb area and shape were evaluated during the 28-day period.The animals were sacrificed on postoperative day 14 and 28,respectively for the histopathologic examination of bleb.The expression of CD31 in the bleb was detected by immunohistochemistry for the calculation of microvessels.All experiments were performed in accordance with the ethics code for animal experimentation and approved by the Institutional Review Board of Tianjin Eye Hospital.Results No significant difference was found in the postoperative IOP among the groups (F =0.88,P =0.47).Compared with the bevacizumab single injection group,MMC group and normal saline group,the shape of bleb was higher and much diffuse with sparse vessels 7 days after operation in the bevacizumab repitition injection group.The survival time of bleb was 27 days,19 days and 13 days in the bevacizumab repitition injection group,the bevacizumab single injection group,MMC group and normal saline group,respectively.The percentage of collagen deposition area was (49.18±1.54)％,(26.41±1.23)％,(50.68±1.87)％ and (70.63±1.81)％ at day 14 postoperative in the bevacizumab single injection group,bevacizumab repitition injection group,MMC group and normal saline group,respectively,with the largest area in the normal saline group,and percentage of collagen deposition area was significantly reduced in the bevacizumab repitition injection group compared with the bevacizumab single injection group (all at P＜0.05).The percentage of collagen deposition area was (66.82±1.53)％ at day 28 postoperative in the bevacizumab repitition injection group,while complete scarring was seen in other 3 groups.The number of microvessels was least at postoperative day 14 in the bevacizumab repitition injection group compared with the bevacizumab single injection group,MMC group and normal saline group (all at P ＜ 0.05).The number of microvessels was more in postoperative day 28 in the bevacizumab repitition injection group (3.51 ±0.31) compared with other groups (all at P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Subconjunctival injection of bevacizumab following trabeculectomy can improve the successful rate of surgery by remaining the survival time of filtering bleb,inhibiting the bleb scarring in rabbits.

Fraction absorbed (Fa) is an important parameter to describe the absorption level of oral drugs, and an important basis for the development and optimization of the formulation process. Because it is easily confused with the concept of absolute bioavailability, it has not received enough attention from the industry. There are many complex factors affecting Fa. There are three time-related factors that directly affect the extent of Fa: the release time, the absorption time, and the residence time. The relationship between these three time-related factors determines the extent of Fa. Generally, we are more concerned about the apparent factors that affect the extent of Fa, including independent variables and covariates; The independent variables include administered dose, route, dosage form, etc. The covariates are divided into internal and external factors, and external factors include food factors, drug interactions, etc. Internal causes include age, sex, disease, etc. This paper analyzes and systematically combs how independent variables and covariates directly or indirectly affect the three time-related factors by affecting the body's physiology and internal environment, thus changing the complex process of Fa. Understanding this theoretical framework can better optimize the independent variables to reduce the impact of covariates on Fa. In addition, this paper also introduces the latest progress of prediction and evaluation of Fa, including the progress of complex dissolution device and the status of software prediction.
