Infantile cholestasis is a syndrome caused by multiple factors with conjugated hyperbilirubinemia for clinical characteristics. The etiologic factors include infection, poisoning, inherited metabolic defects and bile duct abnormalities. Infection, biliary atresia accounts for more than half of cholestasis children. Recently, the new causes have been recognized, for example citrin deficiency, Alagille syndrome,progressive familial cholestasis symptoms caused by different causes are similar to biliary atresia, but the prognosis and treatment are quite different. If misdiagnosed, the condition will exacerbate. Understanding the various causes plays an important role for the early diagnosis and differential diagnosis of infantile cholestasis.

OBJECTIVE:To develop an HPLC-fluorescence method for simultaneous determination of losartan and its major metabolite(E-3174) in human plasma.METHODS:Plasma sample was pretreated by liquid-liquid extraction with aether then determined with valsartan served as internal standard.The determination was performed on Diamonsil C18 with column temperature set at room temperature.The mobile phase consisted of 0.02 mol?L-1 sodium dihydrogen phosphate buffer (adjusted to pH=2.35 with phosphoric acid)-acetonitrile (57∶43) at a flowrate of 0.5 mL?min-1.The excitation wavelength was set at 250 nm and the emission wavelength was set at 370 nm.RESULTS:The linear range of losartan was 10～1 000 ng?mL-1(r=0.999 0) with a lowest limiest of quantification(LLOQ) of 10 ng?mL-1;the linear range of E-3174 was 5～1 000 ng?mL-1(r=0.999 0) with a LLOQ of 5 ng?mL-1.The methodological recoveries of losartan and E-3174 were 94.05%～110.09% and 107.7%～110.94%,respectively,with both intra-day RSD and inter-day RSD at less than 10.0%;the extraction recoveries of losartan and E-3174 were 69.16%～70.85% and 67.50%～70.77%,respectively.CONCLUSION:The developed method is simple,accurate and reproducible,and it is applicable for the concentration determination and pharmacokinetic studies of losartan and its major metabolite (E-3174) in human plasma.

Magnesium participates in many fundamental metabolic processes and plays important roles in maintaining normal body function. Magnesium homeostasis is regulated by a fine balance between gastrointestinal absorption and renal excretion. Several hereditary disorders characterized by hypomagnesemia have been described since 1960s, including familial hypomagnesemia with hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis, autosomal dominant hypomagnesemia with hypocalciuria, hypomagnesemia with secondary hypocalcemia, autosomal dominant hypocalcemia and etc. Recent advances in molecular genetics and protein functions contribute to more understanding of magnesium transport. We will review clinical aspects of hereditary disorders of hypomagnesemia and summarize genetic findings related to these disorders.

BACKGROUND:Unicompartment knee replacement is more popular for smal trauma, rapid recovery, low complication and almost normal knee mechanics, and has been more and more used in clinic to repair single compartment knee disease. At present, there is no report about the influence of the angle of the single condyle prosthesis on the survival rate. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effectiveness of unicompartmental knee replacement for medial compartmental osteoarthritis of the knee in 4-6 years of fol ow-up. METHODS:Thirty patients with medial compartmental osteoarthritis of the knee were treated by unicompartmental knee replacement with Oxford system. Complication occurrence was observed. Curative effects were evaluated with Hospital for Special Surgery score before and 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after surgery. On anteroposterior view, the varus/valgus alignments of the tibial components were measured relative to the long axis of the tibia. On lateral view, flexion/extension of the femoral component was measured relative to the posterior femoral cortex. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Primary healing of incision was obtained in al patients, and no infection or lower limb deep venous thrombosis occurred. (2) Al of the patients were fol owed up for 48-72 months. There was no prosthetic loosening, dislocation or revision for contralateral compartment and patel ofemoral joint symptoms. (3) Hospital for Special Surgery score was significantly increased to (90.47±4.05) (P=0.00). (4) Tibial placement angle of single condyle prosthesis:The axis of the prosthesis was perpendicular to the axis of the tibia in 21 cases. Varus placement:2° in 1 case, 4° in 3 cases, 5° in 2 cases, 6° in 2 cases, and 10° in 1 case. No valgus occurred in the tibial side. (5) Femoral prosthesis placement angle:The axis of the femoral prosthesis was paral el to the posterior edge of the femoral cortex in 22 cases, on the flexed position:4° in 2 cases, 5° in 1 case, 6° in 1 case and 7° in 1 case;in the extension position:3° in 1 case, 4° in 1 case and 5° in 1 case. (6) Results suggested that the unilateral condylar replacement for the repair of medial compartment osteoarthritis of the knee has a good initial effect. The middle-term and long-term efficacy needs longer fol ow-up study.

Objective:To study the possibility that responses of fever and c- Fos expression in rat PVN and NTS to intraperitoneal administration of LPS are rnediated by vagal afferents. Methods: Rectal temperature was detected by digital temperature detecting instrument. c-Fos expressis was detected by immunohistochemistry staining.Results:The rectal temperature change value in vagotomy LPS gnoup was significantlydecreased compared with that in sham IPS group,and there was striking difference betwen them, p ＜0.05.It was increased significantlycompared with that in vagotomy NS group, P ＜ 0.05.The percentage of c-Fos positive neurons in rat PVN and NTS in vagotomy LPS group wassignificantly decreased compared with that in sham LPS group,and there were difference between them, p ＜0.01.Itwas stnkingly increased compared with that in vagotomy conrol group,respectively, P ＜0.01.Conclusion:The results indicate that vagus nerve is one of thepathways of peripheal LPS signal communicating to CNS.

OBJECTIVE To perform a surveillance study in order to investigate the change in antimicrobial resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae,especially extended-spectrum ?-lactamases(ESBLs)-producing strains isolated.METHODS A total of 1986 strains of K.pneumoniae isolated during the last six years were analyzed.RESULTS Among 1986 K.pneumoniae strains,908(45.7%) were ESBLs-producing strains.The sensitive rate of ESBLs-producing K.pneumoniae to imipenem was 100%,and to meropenem was 99%.There were 636 strains isolated from ICU,accounted for 32%;and 480 strains isolated from Department of Respiratory Medicine,accounted for 24.2%.There were 1630 strains isolated from sputum,accounted for 82.1%.CONCLUSIONS K.pneumoniae is the major pathogen.Detecting ESBLs-producing strains rate and their susceptibility to antibiotics is very important in guiding the clinical administration of drugs.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of omeprazole and cimetidine in the prophylaxis of stress ulcer bleeding to provide evidence for clinical therapy in China. Methods:The randomized controlled trials were searched in PubMed, Medline, CNKI, Wan-fang and Vip database with the key words of omeprazole, cimetidine and stress ulcer. Two evaluators assessed the quality and reviewed the data independently. RevMan 5. 2 software was used for Meta-analysis. Results:Seventeen randomized controlled trials were includ-ed involving 892 patients for omeprazole group and 888 patients for cimetidine group. The results of Meta-analysis showed that the difference between the two groups after the treatment was statistically significant by comparing the incidence of stress ulcer bleeding (OR=0. 23,95% CI:0. 17-0. 32;P<0. 000 01). The incidence of stress ulcer bleeding of omeprazole group was significantly lower than that of cimetidine group. Conclusion:Existing literature analysis shows that omeprazole is more effective than cimetidine in the stress ulcer bleeding prophylaxis.
