Evaluation of the permeability mainly focuses on intestinal absorption in biopharmaceutics classification system (BCS). It is more complicated that the absorption and metabolism under multicomponent environment in biopharmaceutics classification system of Chinese materia medica (CMMBCS) compared with single component environment, which needs suitable mathematical models to be described. Therefore, with full consideration of existing single component mathematical algorithm combining with the characteristics of intestinal absorption and metabolism, we explored and designed a new mathematical algorithm of intestinal absorption and metabolism of multicomponent drug. Then we put forward a new coefficient, P (influence), the relative change rate of the single component's intestinal absorption and metabolism under multicomponent environment compared with single component environment, which described the influences of intestinal absorption and metabolism of the component under multicomponent environment. Moreover, P (influence) highlights the distinctive characteristics of multicomponent drug's intestinal absorption and metabolism, and lays the foundation for the construction of CMMBCS.

The evaluation of permeability in biopharmaceutics classification system of Chinese materia medica (CMMBCS) requires multicomponent as a whole in order to conduct research, even in the study of a specific component, should also be put in the multicomponent environment. Based on this principle, the high content components in Gegen Qinlian decoction were used as multicomponent environmental impact factors in the experiment, and the relevant parameters of intestinal permeability about puerarin were measured with using in situ single-pass intestinal perfusion model, to investigate and evaluate the intestinal permeability of puerarin with other high content components. The experimental results showed that different proportions of baicalin, glycyrrhizic acid and berberine had certain influence on intestinal permeability of puerarin, and glycyrrhizic acid could significantly inhibit the intestinal absorption of puerarin, moreover, high concentration of berberine could promote the absorption of puerarin. The research results indicated that the important research ideas of permeability evaluation in biopharmaceutics classification system of Chinese materia medica with fully considering the effects of other ingredients in multicomponent environment.

The study is a paticular embodiment of Chinese patent medicine based on biopharmaceutics classification system of Chinese materia medica (CMMBCS) , focusing on assessment of synchronization issues of dissolution that may affect the timing of the multicomponent absorption. The accumulative dissolution percentages of nine components in Gengen Qinlian tablets in different dissolution solvents and times were determined by HPLC. The dissolution curve was drew and its similarity was evaluated by similarity factors (f2) and cluster method. Results in this experiment showed that the components that peak 7 and peak 8 (baicalin) represented had poor similarity with the reference peak 2 (puerarin). Their similarity factors were both 43 in water dissolution media and 31 and 45 in pH 7.4 dissolution media, respectively. Components that peaks represented had better similarity with the reference peak 2 (puerarin) in other medium. It illustrated that components that peak 3,4,5,6 (berberine) represented had fully synchronous dissolution characteristics with the reference peak 2 (puerarin), components peak 1 and 9 represented had nearly fully synchronous dissolution characteristics with the reference peak 2 (puerarin), while components that peak 7 and 8 (baicalin) represented had no synchronous dissolution characteristics with the reference peak 2 (puerarin).

Objective To investigate the clinical application value of the levels of heparin-binding protein (HBP) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for intracranial infectious diseases. Methods A case-control study was conducted. 150 patients after craniotomy(73 in the postoperative bacterial intracranial infection group, 77 in the postoperative non-infection group) admitted to the Department of Neurology of the People's Hospital of Liaoning Province from December 2016 to May 2018 were collected. At the same time, 46 patients without operation (14 in the non-bacterial intracranial infection group, 32 patients without intracranial infection were selected as control group whose white blood cell count (WBC) values in CSF were all below 10 × 106/L) in the same period were also collected. According to the diagnostic criteria for severe intracranial infection, the patients with bacterial intracranial infection were divided into 26 cases of mild intracranial infection group and 47 cases of severe intracranial infection group. According to the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score at the time of discharge, the patients were divided into 30 cases of good prognosis group (GOS score 4-5 points) and 43 cases of poor prognosis group (GOS score 1-3 points). The concentrations of HBP in CSF were tested with latex immunoturbidimetry, and the concentrations of procalcitonin(PCT) in cerebrospinal fluid and serum were tested with electrochemiluminescence, and cerebrospinal fluid routine were tested with instrument method, and the concentrations of total protein(TP) in cerebrospinal fluid were tested with turbidimetry. The differences of the laboratory test indicators in each group were statistically analyzed, and the levels of HBP in CSF of patients with different degrees of intracranial infection and different prognosis were compared. Comparison of two independent samples was performed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results The HBP levels in cerebrospinal fluid were 187.00 (73.00, 635.00) ng/ml, 10.00 (3.50, 32.00) ng/ml, 1.50 (0, 4.00) ng/ml, 3.00 (1.00, 4.00) ng/ml in post-craniotomy bacterial intracranial infection group, uninfected group after craniotomy, non-bacterial intracranial infection group and control group respectively. The cerebrospinal fluid levels of WBC count were 1280.00 (363.00, 4327.00)×106/L, 63.00 (18.50, 300.00)×106/L, 5.00 (3.00, 14.75)×106/L, 3.00 (2.00, 5.75)×106/L. The absolute value of cerebrospinal fluid neutrophils were 1216.00 (225.50, 3895.50)×106/L, 24.00 (2.00, 209.50)×106/L, 1.00 (1.00, 3.00)×106/L, 1.00 (1.00, 1.00)×106/L. The cerebrospinal fluid levels of PCT were 0.16 (0.10, 0.32) ng/ml, 0.09 (0.07, 0.14) ng/ml, 0.07 (0.06, 0.12) ng/ml, 0.07 (0.06, 0.13) ng/ml. The serum levels of PCT were 0.36 (0.15, 1.09) ng/ml, 0.09 (0.04, 0.16) ng/ml, 0.08 (0.04, 0.13) ng/ml, 0.07 (0.03, 0.11) ng/ml. The levels of HBP, WBC, neutrophils, PCT in CSF and serum PCT in the post-craniotomy bacterial intracranial infection group were significantly higher than those in the uninfected group after craniotomy (Z=-9.246,-6.759,-6.741,-4.477,-6.202, P<0.05), non-bacterial intracranial infection group(Z=-5.840,-5.412,-5.259,-2.923,-5.104,P<0.05) and the control group (Z=-7.905,-7.919,-7.335,-4.397,-5.474, P<0.05). There were significant differences in the levels of HBP, WBC and neutrophils in CSF(Z=-3.763,-3.444,-3.041,P<0.05) and no significant differences in CSF and serum PCT (Z=- 0.869, - 1.850, P>0.05)between the uninfected group after craniotomy and the non-bacterial intracranial infection group. There were significant differences in the levels of HBP, WBC and neutrophils in CSF(Z=-4.496,-6.685,-4.842,P<0.05) and no significant differences in CSF and serum PCT(Z=-0.676,-1.303, P>0.05)between the uninfected group after craniotomy and the control group. There were no significant differences in the levels of HBP, PCT in CSF and serum PCT (Z=-0.861,-0.514,-0.273, P>0.05)and significant differences in the levels of WBC and neutrophils in CSF(Z=-2.756,-3.060, P<0.05) between the non-bacterial intracranial infection group and the control group. The levels of HBP in CSF in the severe intracranial infection group were significantly higher than those in the mild intracranial infection group(Z=-6.267, P<0.05). The levels of HBP in CSF in the poor prognosis group were significantly higher than those in the good prognosis group(Z=-7.064, P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve for the diagnosis of bacterial intracranial infection by HBP, WBC, neutrophils, TP, PCT in CSF and PCT in serum was 0.986, 0.987, 0.945, 0.945, 0.770 and 0.914, respectively. The area under the ROC curve for differential diagnosis of bacterial intracranial infection and non-bacterial intracranial infection was 0.994, 0.958, 0.961, 0.929, 0.747 and 0.936, respectively. Conclusions HBP in CSF is an ideal indicator for the diagnosis of bacterial intracranial infection. It is important to distinguish between bacterial intracranial infection and non-bacterial intracranial infection. The extent of increase is related to the severity of infection and prognosis of the disease.
