Objective:To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of fluoxertine and olanzapine in capsules by re-versed-phase high performance liquid chromatography ( RP-HPLC) . Methods:The successful separation of fluoxertine and olanzapine was achieved on a Phenomenex C18 column (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm) with 10 mmol·L-1 potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer (pH 4. 0)-acetonitrile-methanol (55 ∶40 ∶5, v/v/v) as the mobile phase. The flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1, the detection wave-length was 227 nm, the column temperature was 30℃, and the injection volume was 20 μl. Results:Fluoxertine could be well separa-ted from olanzapine under the chromatographic conditions. The linearity between the peak areas and the concentrations was observed within the range of 5. 0-80. 0 mg·L-1(r=0. 999 9) for fluoxertine and 1. 2-19. 2 mg·L-1(r=0. 999 9) for olanzapine. The mean recovery of fluoxertine and olanzapine was 99. 9%(RSD=0. 94%, n=9) and 100. 2%(RSD=2. 08%, n=9), respectively. Con-clusion:The method is simple, sensitive and accurate, and it can be applied in the content determination of fluoxertine and olanzapine in capsules.

Objective:To compare the similarity of dissolution curves of domestic ibuprofen suspension and the imported prepara-tion to provide the basis for the comprehensive quality evaluation of ibuprofen suspension.

Results:The dissolution rate of ibuprofen suspension from the four different manufacturers reached above 80% in 60 min. The dissolution profiles of ibuprofen suspension from two different manufacturers were similar with that of the imported preparation. Conclusion: The dissolution behavior of ibuprofen suspension from different manufacturers is significantly different.

Objective To evaluate the middle and long term effects of the two-stage procedures of drilling for hydroxyapatite orbital implant and inserting a motility peg, and to investigate the pathogenesis and treatment of the various complications during the procedure. Methods This retospective study included 68 patients who had underwent the drilling of the hydroxyapatite and motility peg placement for over 3 years. Mean age at operation was 30.7 years (range from 17～60 years). All patients were placed plastic peg. Information recorded included pre-and post-operative facial appearance, motility of the artificial eye, conjunctival sac discharge and other complications. Results No secondary infection occured in 36～72 months of follow up. All patients felt that there had been an improvement in the motility of their artificial eye. And their cosmetic appearance was acceptable. The most frequent complication encountered was discharge from conjunctiva sac, which occurred in 31 patients. Extrusion of the motility peg was found in 6 patients. 5 patients had exuberant granulation in conjunctiva sac. Conclusion Drilling of the hydroxyapatite implant improves both the appearance and the motility of the artificial eye. Complications are minor and can be easily prevented and treated. The vascularization of HA sphere with good motility should be drilled at relatively larger conjunctival sac in the patients who can cooperate under local anesthesia.

OBJECTIVEThis study aims to observe and compare the influences of the casting alloy post and cores on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

METHODSSix casting alloy post and sores were fabricated for the experimental groups, and zirconia post and core served as the control. The seven types of post and cores were of the same size and shape. Each post and core was orally fastened to a volunteer and then imaged with sequences of T1-weighted spin echo imaging (SE-T1WI), T2-weighted turbo spin-echo imaging (TSE-T2WI), and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI).

RESULTSCobalt chromium alloy post and core generated severe artifacts, whereas gold palladium alloy post and core generated no obvious artifacts, and no difference was observed between the zirconia and the gold palladium alloy post and cores (P > 0.05). The pure titanium alloy post and core produced mild artifacts. The post and cores of the titanium, nickel-cadmium, and gold platinum alloys generated moderate artifacts with no significant differences (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONDifferent metal post and cores have different influences on MRI. With the exception of that generated by cobalt chromium alloy, the artifact generated by the single-alloy post and core does not influence the image of the normal head and neck.

BACKGROUND: In the field of intervertebral disc tissue engineering, seed cells primarily consist of nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). NPCs have been known to have several shortcomings: limited source, inconvenient collection, poor proliferative capacity, and difficult in vitro culture.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the proliferation of MSCs after co-culture with NPCs in alginate beads-simulated three-dimensional environment.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A cell observation was performed at the Laboratory of Orthopedics, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology between December 2007 and October 2008.MATERIALS: Six healthy New Zealand rabbits of 4 months old were provided by the Laboratory Animal Center, Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology and were used for the present study.METHODS: Rabbit MSCs were isolated and purified using density gradient centrifugation and adherence methods. Rabbit NPCs were isolated and purified using collagenase Ⅱ digestion and adherence methods. Following liposome-mediated green fluorescent protein tranfection and G418 screening, MSCs of passage 3 were cultured either alone (control group) or with NPCs at a ratio of 1:1 (co-culture group) in alginate beads. After 14 days of culture, alginate beads were dissolved and MSCs were collected by flow cytometry sorting.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The expression of collagen Ⅱ and aggrecan in MSCs was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot techniques.RESULTS: mRNA and protein expression of collagen Ⅱ and aggrecan was observed in the co-culture group, but not in the control group, after 14 days of culture.CONCLUSION: MSC differentiation towards nucleus pulposus-like cells can be induced by co-culture with NPCs in a three-dimensional environment.

Two classification was proved of 100% consistency in type Ⅰ and Ⅲ, and 94.1% and 90.1% in type Ⅱ and type Ⅱ/Ⅲ respectively, difference was not remarkable (P＞0.05).CONCLUSION: SLPP determination can be used to make accurate classification of female genuine stress urinary incontinence, possessing important instructive significance for the treatment.

?Advances in genome-wide analysis have revealed that up to 90%of the human genome is transcribed.However, only approximately 1% of RNA transcripts encode proteins, and the remaining transcripts are noncoding RNAs.Noncoding RNAs can be roughly divided into small noncoding RNAs (<200nt ) and long noncoding RNAs ( LncRNAs, >200nt ). Small noncoding RNAs include microRNAs, transfer RNAs and small nucleolar RNAs, whereas the long noncoding RNAs comprise ribosomal RNA, natural antisense transcripts, etc. Although the biosynthesis and biological activities of microRNAs are well studied through bioinformatics and active biological molecules analysis, the understanding of LncRNAs on these aspects is still limited.LncRNAs play multiple roles in regulating gene transcription and translation, and epigenetics.Aberrant LncRNAs expression can occur in various pathological processes and significantly related to the pathogenesis or poor prognosis of ophthalmological diseases. In this review, we will focus on the characteristics and regulatory functions of LncRNAs that are commonly associated with ophthalmological diseases.
