OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for testing the bacterial endotoxin in ceftazidime/tazobactam sodium for injection.METHODS:Based on the bacterial endotoxin test method stated in Chinese Pharmacopoeia(2005 edition),an interference test was conduced on different batches No.of ceftazidime/tazobactam sodium samples using actachypleus amebocyte lysate(TAL)from different companies.RESULTS:No interference was found in the bacterial endotoxin test after ceftazidime/tazobactam sodium for injection was diluted to 5.0 mg?mL-1.Its limit value of bacterial endotoxin was 0.1 EU?mL-1.CONCLUSION:Actachypleus amebocyte lysate test was suitable for determining bacterial endotoxin in ceftazidime/tazobactam sodium for injection.

Intractable abdominal distension refers to the reasonable application of the general dialectical therapy with no significant efficacy. Professor SHI Zai-xiang believes that on the basis of hepatosplenic disorder, there are the etiology and pathogens of spleen yang not raising and spleen and stomach in disorder in intractable abdominal distension, which should be treated with raising qing yang, tonifying qi, and consolidating the superficial resistance. Therefore, modifiedBuzhong Yiqi Decoction was used; as for abdominal distension with blood stasis and meridian stasis, the treatment should be motivating blood circulation and eliminating stasis, motivating qi stagnation, and making free the passage of blood in the vessels, which should be treated withGexia ZhuyuDecoction combined withDahuang Zhechong Pills; as for abdominal distension with lung qi stagnation, the treatment should be motivating lung qi, moisturizing dryness and laxation, promoting qi and eliminating swelling, which should be treated with modified WenbaiPills; as for abdominal distension with cold and yang deficiency, the treatment should be warming and expelling cold, warmly tonifying spleen and kidney, which should be treated withJiuzhuan Yuhu Pills; as for abdominal distension with extra meridians tiredness and deficiency of yin and yang, the treatment should be tonifying extra meridians, warmly tonifying yin and yang and tonifying liver and kidney, which should be treated with modified Roucongrong Pills. Intractable abdominal distension needs the overall dialectical and alternative treatment.

Objective:Through analyze the uncertainty sources in verification about defibrillation analyzer of DA-1 type, assess and verify of defibrillation energy uncertainty, repeatability and stability to ensure the quality of the analyzer. Methods:The maximum permissible error, energy display resolution, releasing energy measurement repeatability three aspects:source of uncertainty was analyzed and evaluated. Results:On the basis of WSB64-2003“verification regulation for cardiac defibrillators & cardiac defibrillator-monitors”, the relative expanded uncertainty can be obtained. Conclusion:Through analysis and evaluation, the source of the uncertainty of the results of defibrillation analyzer are conform to rules of the regulation, the defibrillation analyzer can detect the defibrillator of clinical to ensure the quality and safety.

Objective:To analyze the high frequency electric knife detection methods, effective detection methods is used to solve problems in testing, the high frequency electricity knife quality is ensured finally.Methods: According to the national calibration specifications, the high frequency electricity knife analyzer is used to test, the problems are found, the experience is sum up.Results:By using the method of testing for a long time, the hidden danger is eliminated of the high frequency electrical knife, the accuracy of the high frequency electric knife is ensured, so that it is more safe and reliable in clinical.Conclusion: The quality control of high frequency electric knife test is an important part of medical safety, the value of high frequency electric knife is ensured through the tested periodically, so it can better service to patients.

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) has been widely used in ⅡA, ⅡB, ⅢA stage and locally advanced breast cancer. The best way to evaluate NAC effect is to detect the changes in total tumor lesion volume by three-dimensional reconstruction under magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). At present, it is a hotspot for many scholars to effectively evaluate the efficacy of NAC and the impact of shrinkage modes on the evaluation after NAC in breast cancer by combination of multiple parameters, such as the area under receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), time-intensity curve (TIC) type and minimum apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC). To provide more practical and accurate means and methods in evaluating the effect of NAC in breast cancer for clinic is the medical researchers′eternal target.

With the continuous advent of new types of electron microscopes and the continuous improvement and development of electron microscope technique , biological electron microscope tech-nique has become one of the important experimental means in the fields of biology , molecular biology, basic medicine and clinical medicine , Department of Pathology of College of Basic Medical Sciences in Jilin University has reviewed the teaching feature and teaching status of biological electron microscope technique based on the training objectives of postgraduate education. By finding the problems and analyz-ing them, they have added the teaching link of review discussion in teaching process and elaborated on its implementation process and teaching results , aiming to provide practical basis for application of review discussion for postgraduate teaching.

The experiences and features of XU Shu-wei's clinical application of moxibustion is studied in this article with method of review research. XU Shu-wei attached great importance on yangqi and the functions of spleen and kidney. At the same time, warming-reinforcing method was recommended in treatment as well. Not only treatment with medicine was emphasized, but also moxibustion was encouraged to be applied in clinic. A warming-reinforcing method with moxibustion was recommended for diseases such as yinzheng (yin syndrome), yin-du (extreme yin syndrome), yang deficiency syndrome, stroke, prolapse of anus and furuncles on back. Flexible moxibustion methods were applied based on differentiation of syndromes. Various acupoints and moxibustion manipulations were selected according to different conditions. With the proved therapeutic effect, XU Shu-wei was held as the forerunner of warming-reinforcing method in the acupuncture history of China. Meanwhile, he also made certain contribution on the establishment of the Wenbu Xuepai (the warming-reinforcing school) in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644).
