1. Identification of Velvet Antler by mitochondrial DNA fingerprint
Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2013;48(3):170-173
OBJECTIVE: To compare specific primer method and r andom amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) method for identification of Velvet Antler, thus to choose a simpler method. METHODS: DNA samples were extracted from sika deer antler, wilddeer antler, reideer pilose antler and commercially available Velvet Antler, and then purified and amplified with specific primer amplification and RAPD amplification. RESULTS: The sika deer antler, wild deer antler, reideer pilose antler and some of the commercially available Velvet Antler all showed 313bp segment in the agarose gel with different brightness while the other commercial products did not show this segment. RAPD not only effectively showed positive and negative DNA amplification results, but also showed the difference in PCR products of sika deer antlerwild deer antler with different strip numbers and strip brightness. CONCLUSION: RAPD method is more accurate and rapid and it has wide application prospect.

Objective To evaluate the effects of pulmonary static inflation with different pressures on postoperative lung function in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods Sixty ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients,aged 26-70 yr,weighing 47-78 kg,undergoing elective cardiac valve replacement with CPB,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =30 each):pulmonary static inflation with 5 cm H2O group (group L) and with 10 cm H2O group (group H).In L and H groups,pulmonary static inflation was performed with the pressure maintained at 5 and 10 cm H2O,respectively,after stopping mechanical ventilation during CPB.Arterial blood samples were taken before skin incision and at 1,3 and 6 h after termination of CPB for blood gas analysis.The alveolar-arterial oxygen pressure difference (D(A-a)O2),respiratory index (RI) and oxy.genation index (OI) were calculated.The indwelling time of endotracheal tube after operation and duration of ICU stay were recorded.Results Compared with group L,D(A-a)O2 and RI were significantly decreased and OI was increased at 1,3 and 6 h after termination of CPB,the incidence of OI less than 300 mm Hg was decreased (P < 0.05),and no significant change was found in the indwelling time of endotracheal tube after operation and duration of ICU stay in H group (P > 0.05).Collusion Pulmonary static inflation with 10 cm H2O can better improve postoperative pulmonary diffusion function than with 5 cm H2O in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement with CPB.

Osteoclastic bone resorption and osteoblastic bone formation are coordinated as a coupled mechanism to effect the development of bone and to maintain bone homeostasis. Recently reported Eph/ephrin bidirectional signaling between osteoclasts and osteoblasts plays a pivol role in bone homeostasis and casts new light on coupling of bone resorption and bone formation, which is gaining more and more attention in researches of bone biology and bone diseases. The present article aims to address the researches on the Eph/ephrin bidirectional signaling between osteoblasts and osteoclasts with molecular constitution, mechanism of the signal transduction, biological significance and so on.

Objective To explore the influence of various concentrations of amino acid on the stability of neonatal parenteral nutrition solutions .Methods Five formulations were designed with 5 different amino acid concentrations containing the same components .The final amino acid concentrations of admixtures were 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, and 3.5%, respectively .The appearance , pH, and osmolality were observed or meas-ured after preparation (0 hour) and at 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after preparation.The average size and the size distribution of the lipid globules were also evaluated by laser nanometer particle size analyzer .Results There was no observable alteration in color , phase separation , precipitate , and flocculation in any admixture at any of the observation time points.The mean pH values for all groups were between (5.49 ±0.01) to (6.19 ±0.01) within 72 hours.The mean osmolalities for all groups were between (774 ±3) to (1106 ±13) mOsm/kg.The mean diameters of lipid globules for all groups were between (280.6 ±0.7 ) mm to (332.2 ±2.0 ) nm.The mean polydispersity for all groups were between (0.200 ±0.011) to (0.245 ±0.012).The enrichment of ami-no acid concentration was linked to lower pH ( P=0.000 ) , higher osmolality ( P=0.000 ) and larger average lipid globules size ( P=0.000 ) .However , there was no distinct linear dependence between amino acid concen -tration and polydispersity value ( P=0.628 ) .Conclusion After 72 hours of storage at room temperature , the appearance, pH, osmolality, and the average lipid globules diameter of the parenteral nutrition solutions are within the safe range when the amino acid is not contained or the concentrations are no more than 3.5%.

OBJECTIVE:To standardize hospital purchasing management for medicinal material. METHODS:The separation of the four powers,including plan,purchase,supply,and payment,was practiced on the basis of centralized purchasing medicinal material in our hospital. SWOT method was used to analyze the strengths,weaknesses,opportunities and threats of the model;im-provement measures were formulated;finally the effects of the model were evaluated. RESULTS:This model played an active role in the professional advantage of purchasing management,made up for the lack of management system and manpower shortage dis-advantage;adapted to policies to seize the opportunities for improvement,reduced the threat of standard deletion and purchasing cost,and promoted reasonable consumption of medicinal materials. And then the purchasing cost of our hospital was reduced after system procedure improvement,fine management of medicinal material and professional level improvement,medicine ratio fell from 42% in 2010 to 37% in 2014;logistics support became stable and standard,and the level of medicinal material supply was improved. CONCLUSIONS:The purchasing model for medicinal material under separation of the four powers provides the refer-ence for the correct course of the standardized,normalized and modernized hospital purchasing management.

Purpose To assess the effect of pelvicfloor electrical stimulation treatment by transperineal sonography, so as to provide guidance for postpartum pelvic floor rehabilitation.Materials and Methods Thirty-one delivery women who received postpartum pelvicfloor rehabilitation were selected as research group and 30 non-pregnant young women as control group in the study. Pelvicfloor electromyography treatment was taken in research group, and transperineal sonography was undergone in quiet state and pressure state (Valsalva operation) before treatment, after the fifth treatment and after the tenth treatment respectively to measure the bladder neck to the public symphysis edge distance (Dr, Ds), bladder neck angle (θr,θs) and bladder rotation angle (θ). A comparison was made between the research group and control group.Results①Dr and Ds in research group were both lower than those in control group (P<0.05), butθr,θs andθ were all higher than those in control group (P<0.05).②Dr and Ds showed a gradual increase (P<0.05) whilstθr presented a gradual decrease before the treatment, after the fifth treatment and after the tenth treatment (P<0.05).Conclusion Natural childbirth may damage the function of pelvicfloor; electrical stimulation of pelvic therapy is effective on postpartum pelvicfloor rehabilitation; and transperineal sonography can objectively assess the effect of this therapy.
