Objective To study the pharmacokinetic parameters of riluzole tablets and commercial riluzole capsules in Beagle dogs,and evaluate the correlation between the release rate in vitro and the absorption in vivo, and calculate the relative bioavailability of riluzole tablets. Methods Six Beagle dogs were treated with 50 mg of riluzole tablets or capsules,and then cross-treated by the other drug after 14-days wash out period. Blood concentration of riluzole was measured by high performance liquid chromatography ( HPLC ) . The atrioventricular model was used to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters and Wanger-Nelson method was applied to assess the correlation between the release rate in vitro and the absorption in vivo. Results The t1/2 ,tmax ,Cmax ,AUC0-72 and AUC0-∞ in the tablet and capsule groups were (12. 43±3. 87) and (12. 57±3. 25) h,(6. 00±2. 60) and (6. 23±2. 72) h,(56. 24±16. 51) and (60. 82±18. 13) ng·mL-1 ,(1 255. 83±311. 39) and (1 283. 50±313. 81) ng·mL-1 ·h, (1 282. 57±322. 64) and (1 297. 22±297. 39) ng·mL-1 ·h,respectively. The relative bioavailability of capsules versus tablets was (105. 9±30. 6 )%. Conclusion HPLC method can be applied to measure the concentration of blood riluzole with little interference and high levels of repeatability and accuracy. The absorption in Beagle dogs between riluzole tablets and capsules was equal,and a good correlation between the in vivo absorption and in vitro release has been found in this study.

Objective: To explore a way of getting satisfactory face shape and function with a retrospective study in 70 patients with midface fractures.Methods:70 cases were selected.Fractures were treated with miniplate according to the sites and different operation methods.Results:Occlusions and face profiles were normal.Each operation method had its own advatages and disadvanges.Conclution:The rigid internal fixation is effective for midface fracture and the choice of operation methods should depend on the sites of fractures.

BACKGROUND:In foreign animal experiments and clinical reports, microporous polysaccharide hemospheres are characterized as good hemostatic effect, no delayed bleeding, good biocompatibility, and no adverse reactions in the body. OBJECTIVE:To assess the efficacy and safety of microporous polysaccharide hemospheres on reducing blood loss after unilateral total hip arthroplasty. METHODS:Totaly 98 patients who received unilateral total hip arthroplasty due to femoral neck fractures, 39 males and 59 females, aged 61-77 years, were randomly divided into two groups: test group, treated with 1g microporous polysaccharide hemospheres before suture of wound; control group, treated with electric coagulation hemostasis before suturing. Drainage tubes were placed in the two groups. Hemoglobin, blood loss, alogeneic transfusion rate, drainage volume, coagulation index and incidence of deep venous thrombosis of the lower limbs were compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The total blood loss, drainage volume, and transfusion rate in the test group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.01), but there were no differences in D-dimer, platelet count, activated partial thromboplastin time and international normalized ratio between the two groups. One case of each group developed deep venous thrombosis of the lower limbs, and no significant difference was in the incidence of deep venous thrombosis between the two groups. No infection occurred. These findings indicate that microporous polysaccharide hemospheres that are safe, effective and convenient can reduce the visible and hidden blood loss after unilateral total hip arthroplasty.

Objective To evaluate the teaching effects of micro-lecture based on the wechat platform in new nurses'training in operating rooms.Methods Fifteen new nurses in the operating room in July 2014 were selected as observation group,and thirteen new nurses in July 2013 were selected as control group.The multimedia-aided teaching mode was applied in the two groups,while micro-lecture based on the we-chat platform was implemented in the observation group.The theory and operating skills between two groups were evaluated by examination, and a random inquiry about satisfaction with new nurses was directed on surgeon and seniors nurses.Resulsts 100% of the nurses in obser-vation group accepted and preferred wechat in continuing education.The new nurses’performance in theory and skill test in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (t =2.901,P =0.011;t =2.225,P =0.029).In addition,the surgeon’s and seniors nurses’satisfaction with new nurses in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (Z =6.425,P =0.011).Conclusion Micro-lecture based on the wechat platform can motivate nurses’learning enthusiasm and positivity,and effectively improve their theoretical knowledge and professional skills.

BACKGROUND:Al ogeneic bone has anatomical appearance and biological features similar to autogenous bone, which is an excel ent biological scaffold material. Mesenchymal stem cel s originating from autogenous bone marrow have mutli-lineage differentiation potential, can differentiate into osteoblasts and chondrocyte, and thus can accelerate the formation of bone tissue and cartilage tissue. OBJECTIVE:To establish the osteogenic ability of al ogeneic bone with autogenous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s for repairing major mandibular defects. METHODS:The left mandibular teeth of 24 beagles were extracted, and at 2 months after wound healing, mandibular defects were made artificial y. The beagles were divided into two groups:control group treated with lyophilized al ogeneic bone, and experimental group with autogenous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and lyophilized al ogeneic bone. Densitometry with CT and Micro-CT was conducted 4, 12, and 24 weeks after surgery. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, the bone density of the mandible was significantly higher in the experimental group at 12 weeks after transplantation (P<0.05). Over time, the bone densities in the two groups were both increased, but the bone density in the experimental group was always higher than that in the control group. Bone structure parameters were progressively increased or decreased in the two groups, especial y in the experimental group. At 24 weeks after surgery, the degree of trabecular separation in regions of interest was higher in the experimental group than the control group (P<0.05), but the bone volume fraction, number of trabecular bone, and bone trabecular thickness were significantly lower in the experimental group than the control group (P<0.05). These findings indicate that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s are capable of accelerating the reconstruction of al ogeneic bones.

Objective:To study the relationship between HLA-DRB1 gene polymorphisms and macrovascular complication of type 2 diabetics. Methods:HLA-DRB1 alleles in 88 cases of type 2 diabetics, including 52 ones without complication and 36 ones with macrovascular complication, were examined by PCR-SSP. Results:There were at least 11 HLA-DRB1 alleles in type 2 diabetics. The HLA-DRB1 *03 and HLA-DRB1 *09012 gene frequencies of type 2 diabetics with macrovascular complication were significant higher than those without complication.Conclusion:HLA-DRB1 *03 and HLA-DRB1 *09012 alleles or their linkage disequilibrium genes may enhance the risk of the development of type 2 diabetes macrovascular complication.

Objective To investigate the C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and its macrovascular complications. Methods Serum CRP levels were assayed by ELISA, which were determined in type 2 DM patients with or without macrovascular complication (88 and 64 cases respectively), non-DM patients presenting with macrovascular disease (72 cases), as well as impaired fasting glucose (IFG) (62 cases) or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) (70 cases) patients and normal controls (80 subjects). Results In general, CRP levels in IGT patients, type 2 DM patients and non-DM patients presenting with macrovascular disease were higher than those of normal controls (P

A total of 209 type 2 diabetic patients were divided into three groups:without,with mild to moderate,or severe diabetic lower extremity arterial disease based on the ankle brachial index value.60 healthy subjects were used as a control group.Retinol binding protein4 (RBP4),cystatin C,and biochemical parameters were determined in all subjects.The results showed that RBP4 and cystatin C levels were progressively raised with the increasing severity of lower extremity arterial disease in various groups,being significantly higher in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with mild to moderate and severe arterial disease compared with control group (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).RBP4 and cystatin C levels in groups with lower extremity arterial disease were significantly higher than those in the group without arterial disease (P＜0.01).Pearson correlation analysis showed that RBP4 level was positively correlated with total cholesterol,triglyceride,low density lipoprotein-cholesterol,fasting serum insulin,body mass index,cystatin C etc while negatively correlated with high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Logistic regression analysis showed that serum RBP4 and cystatin C were significantly associated with lower extremity arterial disease in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Two hundred and sixty-one subjects were recruited from in-patients and subjects for phaysical Check-up,and were divided into normal control group (NC),nonalcoholic fatty liver disease group (NAFLD),type 2 diabetes mellitus group (T2DM),and T2DM accompanied by NAFLD group (DMN).According to the result of ultrasonic examination,the patients with T2DM were further divided into non-NAFLD group,light fatty liver group (NAFLD-L group),moderate fatty liver group(NAFLD-M group),and severe fatty liver(NAFLD-S group).Fasting plasma glucose,blood lipid,liver function,kidney function,and serum retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) levels were determined.The risk of various indicators for NAFLD was determined by correlation analysis and logistic regression analysis.The results showed that fasting glucose levels in diabetics with or without NAFLD were significantly higher than those in NC and NAFLD groups(P＜0.01).Triglyceride (TG) level in DMN group was significantly higher than those in other three groups(all P＜0.01),while high density lipoprotein-cholesterol level was lower than those in other three groups(all P＜0.01).Systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in DMN group were higher than those in NC and T2DM groups (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Serum RBP4 level in patients with NAFLD was significantly higher compared with the subjects without NAFLD [45.00 (38.75,51.00) mg/L vs 51.00 (43.00,62.00) mg/L,P ＜0.01],and was rising with the progress of NAFLD [NAFLD-L group 44.00 (37.00,51.00) mg/L,NAFLD-M group 52.00(46.00,63.00) mg/L,and NAFLD-S group 78.5 (72.75,83.00) mg/L,all P＜0.01].Logistic regression analysis showed that the RBP4 level was an independent factor associated with NAFLD (P =0.029).In addition,serum RBP4 level was correlated with body mass index,waist-to-hip ratio,serum gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase,total cholesterol,TG,aspartate aminotransferase,alanine aminotransferase,prealbumin,creatinine,blood urea nitrogen,and uric acid.These resuhs suggest that serum RBP4 is an independent risk factor of NAFLD.

Objective To investigate the effect of early coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)to the left ventricular wall motion state and the significance of CABG to awake hibernating myocardial in dogs with acute myocardial infarction.Methods The anterior descending coronary of all thirty dogs were ligated into MI model.According to the operation date,the experimental groups included the 1 st week (n =6),the 2nd week (n =4),the 4th week (n =6) and the 6th week (n =6) CABG,and established control group (n =2) for every experimental group.Operators marked hibernate myocardial and determined the room wall motion score by means of dobutamine ultrasound load test (DSE) combining with tissue doppler imaging (DTI)technology before CABG and after eight weeks CABG through thoracotomy surgery for the experimental group and the control group.Every dog was executed and detected the area of MI.Results Four dogs of experimental group and all dogs of control group survived to the end of the study.The change of ventricular room wall motion score in the 1st and the 2nd week CABG was smaller than that in the 4th and the 6th week CABG and MI group(0.03 ±0.06,0.05 ±0.09,0.23 ±0.08,0.27 ±40.06,0.32 ±0.05,P ＜0.05).The change of room wall motion score in all CABG groups was smaller than that in MI group(1.195 ±0.09,1.25 ±0.18,1.30 ±0.18,1.36 ±0.11,1.65 ±0.17,P＜0.05).The hibernate myocardial were more awaken in all CABG groups than that in MI group (0.27 ± 0.12,0.22 ± 0.04,0.31 ± 0.09,0.23 ± 0.03,0.03 ± 0.04,P ＜ 0.05).The area of MI became smaller in 1 and 2 weeks CABG than that in 4 and 6 weeks CABG and MI group(20.75 ± 2.63,21.25 ± 2.5,27.25 ± 1.71,27.75 ± 2.22,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Early CABG surgery for dogs acute MI could improve the ventricular room wall motion obviously and wake up more hibernate myocardial.Especially,CABG surgery among two weeks could lessen the effect of MI to the ventricular room wall motion and reduce the scope of myocardial infarction maximatily.
