OBJECTIVE: To establish an effective high performance liquid chromatography coupled with evaporative light scattering detector (HPLC-ELSD) method to simultaneously detect multi alkaloids in Fritillaria wabuensis, which can be used to control the quality of Fritillaria wabuensis. METHODS: The method was conducted on an InertSustain C18 column (4.6 mm×250 mm, 5 μm) with 0.1% TFA (V/V) aqueous solution-acetonitrile as mobile phase eluted in a gradient program. RESULTS: The method had good linearity (r2≥0.999 0).The accuracy was between 90% and 105%. This method was simple, sensitive, accurate and specific, which can be applied to determine imperialine-3-β-D-glucoside, imperialine, peimisine, verticine, verticinone, isoverticine and chuanbeinone in Fritillaria wabuensis. CONCLUSION: Nearly all fritillariae alkaloids can be detected under this condition, therefore, the chromatogram can be used as the characteristic chromatogram to testify different kinds of Fritillaria.The method can also be combined with mass spectrometric detector. It′s the first time for isoverticine and chuanbeinone to be detected in Fritillaria wabuensis by HPLC and also the first time for seven isosteroidal alkaloids in Fritillaria wabuensis to be simultaneously determined.

Objective This objective of the study was to analyze the factors related to being recaptured and condom use among low-fee female sex workers (FSWs) to provide reference in developing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) intervention strategy. Methods Physical examination certificates were designed by Zhongshan County Center for Disease Control and Prevention to record HIV and syphilis test results for low-fee FSWs from 2013 to 2015. Low-fee FSWs were asked to show physical examination certificates in the next intervention and test. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze factors associated with being captured with physical examination certificates. Generalized linear mixed model was used to analyze factors associated with condom use with clients. Results A total of 220 low-fee FSWs were recruited by using physical examination certificates and received 389 interviews from 2013 to 2015. The proportions of HIV positive and syphilis positive were 4.2% (9/213) and 30.0% (64/213) respectively among those who had HIV and syphilis test. Results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that low-fee FSWs who had been FSWs for more than 4 years (OR=2.95, 95% CI:1.35-6.45), and worked in the local county in the past 30 days (OR=11.74, 95% CI: 5.26-26.20), were more likely to be captured with physical examination certificates. Results of generalized linear mixed model showed that those who were captured at least once (OR=3.33, 95% CI: 1.34-8.27), had junior middle school education and above (OR=22.79, 95% CI: 3.75-138.57), had high HIV knowledge (OR=3.57, 95% CI: 1.52-8.38), and charged more than 30 yuan for vaginal sex (OR=30.68, 95% CI: 12.57-74.90), were more likely to use condom consistently. Conclusions Physical examination certificates could be used for low-fee FSWs surveillance and intervention and tracking their HIV and syphilis status. The intervention strategy should take these into consideration.

Objective To investigate the effects of early estrogen replacement therapy(ERT) with different doses on aortic endothelial senescence and its possible mechanism. Methods Twenty- eight healthy New Zealand white female rabbits were randomized into four groups: group A(n=7), in sham operation;group B(n=7), ovariectomized;group C(n=7), ovariectomized and in low-dose ERT(estradiol benzoate 200 μg,im, QOD) ;and group D(n=7), ovariectomized and in high-dose ERT (estradiol benzoate 1000 μg,im,QOD). All rabbits were fed with high fat diet and the rabbits in group C and group D were given ERT from the 7th day after the operation. Blood samples taken via ear central artery before the operation and after the high fat diet for 4 and 12 weeks were used to determine the concentrations of serum estradiol(E2), total cholesterol(TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), trigtyceride (TG) and asymmetric dimethylarginine(ADMA). After 12 weeks, the aorta was separated for histopathologic analysis and the areas of senescent endothelium and atherosclerotic plaque were calculated.Results (1)After ovariectomized, the concentration of serum estradiol(E2) was significantly lower in group B than in other groups (all P<0.05). Twelve weeks later, the level of E2in was higher group D than in group A and C(both P<0. 05), but there was no significant difference between group C and group A (P< 0. 05). (2)After the high-fat diet for 4 and 12 weeks, there was a notable increase of TC, LDL-C, TG and HDL-C levels in rabbits of each group(all P<0. 01). After 12 weeks, the levels of TC and LDL- C were remarkably higher in group B than in other groups(all P<0. 01), however, the levels of TG and HDL-C were lower in group B than in other groups(all P<0. 01). The concentrations of TC and LDL-C in group C and group D were lower than those in group A (all P<0.01), but the differences of the levels of TG and HDL-C in group C and group D were not significant in comparison with group A (all P>0. 05). There were no significant differences in the lipid levels between group C and D (all P> 0. 05). (3)After 12-week high fat diet, there were a striking increases of serum ADMA level in all four groups (all P>0. 05). The level of ADMA was higher in group B than in other groups (P< 0. 05) andlower in group C and D than that in group A (both P<0. 05). There was no significant difference between group C and D (P<0. 05). (4)12 weeks later, the areas of senescent endothelium and atherosclerotic plaque in group B were significantly larger than those in other groups (all P< 0. 01), and the areas were smaller in group C and D than those in group A (all P<0. 01), there was no significant difference between group C and group D(both P>0.05). (5)Linear correlation analysis showed that there was an obvious positive correlation between the areas of senescent endothelium and atherosclerotic plaque(r=0. 962, P<0. 01), and both of them were positively correlated with the levels of serum AMDA (r=0. 812,0. 824,0. 755,0. 797,0. 749,0. 727), TC (r=0. 812,0. 824) and LDL-C(r=0. 755,0. 797) (all P<0. 01) and negatively correlated with the concentration of serum E2 (r=-0. 762,-0. 743, both P<0. 01).Conclusions Early ERT can improve serum lipid metabolism, reduce ADMA level, inhibit vascular endothelial senescence and attenuate atherogenesis. The delaying effect of estrogen on endothelial senescence may be due to its improving lipid metabolism and lowering ADMA level.
