OBJECTIVE:To optimize the formulation parameters of poly1,3-bis(p-carboxyphenoxy) propane-sebacic acid (P(CPP∶SA)) microsphere and evaluate its drug release performance in vitro. METHODS: The paclitaxel microspheres were prepared by single emulsion method,and the effects of the factors such as the stirring speed (A),P(CPP∶SA) concentration (B),emulsifier polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) concentration (C) on encapsulation efficiency were evaluated by orthogonal test. The surface morphology of the prepared microsphere was observed and its drug release performance in vitro was evaluated. RESULTS: The optimal formulation of the microsphere obtained was as follows: A was 4 000 r?min-1,B was 80 mg?mL-1 and C was 1%,respectively. The morphology of microspheres was round and intact. The encapsulation efficiency of paclitaxel was up to above 90%. The sustained release duration was 30 days with an accumulative release rate of over 80%. CONCLUSION: Paclitaxel microspheres prepared by optimal formula display a high encapsulation efficiency and satisfactory sustained-release pattern.

Hospital Information System(HIS) contributes a lot to the management of the hospital with the personnel flow,the material flow,the fund flow and the information flow well-regulated.The construction of HIS has to be based on general scheme,and then the sub-systems are established separately,at last all sub-systems are integrated to form a system,that is HIS,to realize the modernization of the hospital management.

In recent years,scientific reports say that ApoE genotypes not only influence lipid metabolism but also affect bone metabolism through vitamin K. Primary osteoporosis is mainly regulated by genes and the interaction of genes and environmental factors also affects primary osteoporosis. This review focused on the mechanism of the influence of ApoE gene on bone mineral density and interaction of ApoE gene and environment factors in the determination of primary osteoporosis.

This study explores the association between physician-patient communication and healthcare service quality,and relevant factors.The physician-patient communication belongs to medical behaviors,and plays a key role in the improvement of physician-patient relationship and the overall healthcare service quality.The consults of physician-patient communication were affected by many factors including physicians' attitude,and usage of words and behaviors,in which the positive attitude and behaviors are key solution to the improvement physician-patient relationship.Therefore the urgent matters are to strengthen standardized management of physician-patient communication,and set up related regulations and effective measure.

OBJECTIVE:To study the pharmacokinetic features of Fagopyrum tataricum total flavonoids. METHODS:6 Beagle dogs were intragastrically given single dose of 80 mg F.tataricum total flavonoids (with content of quercetin at 1.2% and the content of eldrin at 24.7%). HPLC-UV spectrophotometry was adopted to determine the content of total quercetin in the hydrolyzed plasma samples. RESULTS:Taking the total quercetin as the index of the pharmacokinetic features of the F. tataricum total flavonoids in the Beagle dogs,the main pharmacokinetic parameters were as follows:AUC0→t:(9.92?1.49)?g?h?mL-1;AUC0→∞:(10.81?1.86)?g?h?mL-1;Cmax:(1.07?0.19)?g?mL-1. CONCLUSION:The pharmacokinetics of the F.tataricum total flavonoids in the Beagle dogs conforms to two-compartment model,and the concentration-time curves are characterized by multiple peak pharmacokinetics.

Objective To investigate the CT features of ovarian cystadenofibroma(CFA)and to improve the diagnostic accuracy. Methods The clinical data and CT images of 7 patients with ovarian CFA were retrospectively analyzed.All cases underwent non-enhanced and contrast-enhanced CT scan.Results Ovarian lesions were unilateral in 5 cases,bilateral in 2 cases and totally 9 lesions were found.6 lesions were cystic,2 lesions were mainly solid and 1 lesion was mixed components.The maximum diameter of lesions ranged from 4.7-21.5 cm with an average of 8.2 cm.Lesions had smooth margins,and solid portions had different size vesicles. Cyst walls or septa showed various degree of thickening with calcification in 1 lesion and mural nodules in 5 lesions,and a small vesicle was visualized in only 1 of the mural nodules.Cystic portions appeared as fluid density without enhancement.Solid portions,thickened cyst walls and septa appeared as slight enhancement or no enhancement.No regional lymph node metastasis was found,no ascites or peritoneal implants as well.Conclusion Ovarian CFA has some characteristic of CT findings that may improve clinical diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

As small non-coding RNAs,microRNAs (miRNAs)have been recognized as important reg-ulatory factors in the post-transcription regulation network.Studies have shown that miR-133a and miR-133b, as members of miR-133 family,can regulate the expression of target genes such as epidermal growth factor receptor and oncogene.They regulate the mitogen-activated protein kinases and protein kinase B signaling path-ways,which affect tumor cell proliferation,invasion and migration.MiR-133 plays a key role in the process of tumor development and progression,suggesting that it could be served as a new target for cancer treatment.

Objective To explore the efficacy and side effect of CAG (G-CSF, aclarubicin and cytarabine) priming chemotherapy for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Methods 54 patients with AML at diagnosis and relapse or MDS were'enrolled for the initial treatment with CAG regimen. Patients who have achieved complete remission (CR) were treated with various regimens. Results The total effective rate was 72.2 %, complete remission rate was 48.1% and partial remission rate was 24.1%. The incidence of granulocyte deficiency was 40.7 %(22/54). The severe infection rate was 24.1%(13/54). One case died of function damage in liver. The study includes 36 patients below 60 years, 18 patients above 60 years, and overall effective cases are 28 (77.8 %), 11 (61.1%),respectively. There was significant difference (P ＜0.05). Conclusion CAG regimen is effective and well tolerated in remission for AML and MDS-RAEB.
