The effects of Dimethyl trilobine Iodide (DTI) on the blood lipids and lipoprotein choieslerol of rats and hemorrheology of rabbits were studied An peritoneal injection of DTI at the dosage of 0.5mg/kg could increase the serum TG of normal rais and reduce the HDL-c and HDL-c/LDL-c of rats fed with normal and fat-rich diets. An intravenous injection of DTI at the dosage of 10?g/kg accelerated formation of thrombus in vitro and at 5?g/kg and 10?g/kg elevated plasma mucosity at high sheafing. It was demonstrated that DTI had probably unfavorable effects on mediation of blood lipids of rats and hemorrheology of rabbits.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the significance of expression of COX-2, p21, Ki67 and HPV in nasal inverted papilloma.
METHOD:
Detecting COX-2, p21, Ki-67 in 30 cases of nasal inverted papilloma (NIP), 20 cases of nasal polyps (NP) and 10 cases of normal nasal mucosa (NM) by two step immunohistochemical method, and HPV virus by flow-through hybridization method.
RESULT:
The positive expression rate of COX-2 and Ki-67 in NIP, NP and NM group was decreased in turn, COX-2 had significant difference in the groups(χ2 = 30.00, P< 0. 05); the positive expression rate of Ki-67 had significant differences between NIP and NM group (χ2 = 8. 533, P<0. 05). The expression of COX-2 in NIP tissues was positively correlate with that of Ki-67 by using Spearman rank correlation analysis (r=0.78, P<0.05). Expression of p21 were not observed in NIP group. The positive rate of HPV was 26. 67% in 30 cases of NIP, all of HPV16 type.
CONCLUSION
COX-2, Ki-67 and HPV infection have certain correlation with the occurrence of NIP. The occurrence of NIP has relationship with inflammatory reaction mediated by COX-2. Ki-67 can well reflect the proliferation activity of tumor cells, and can be used to measure the proliferation rate of nasal inverted papilloma. The COX-2 and Ki-67 have a synergistic role in the pathogenesis of NIP. p21 has no significant relationship with the incidence of NIP. HPV infection is related to the pathogenesis of NIP, but not as a;major factor in the pathogenesis of NIP.

OBJECTIVE:
The study is to evaluate our results of patients with sinonasal inverted papilloma (SIP) undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery and to investigate the recurrence relative factors of SIP.
METHOD:
A retrospec- tive analysis was performed of medical records for 54 cases SIP treated with endoscopic resection. Compared to pre operation imaging evaluation and intraoperative observation, efficacy assessments included endoscopy during follow-up after operation and combined with CT examination results.
RESULT:
The incidence of 54 cases with ethmoid sinus, part of the lateral wall of the nasal cavity was higher. The recurrence rate was higher in the cases invaded front and/or inferior wall of maxillary sinus, frontal recess. There was no case with middle turbinate. Canceration with the same time accounted for 1.85%.
CONCLUSION
Misdiagnosis as polyps, the lesion sites of tumour, involving the frontal recess, front and inferior wall of maxillary sinus are the risk factors of recurrence. The preoperative accurate judgment of the primary tumor site and surgical resection completly are the most effective means of preventing recurrence. Postoperative endoscopy examination combined with CT examination is an effective means for the evaluation of recurrence.

Puerarin (PUE), as an isoflavone component, has a wide range of pharmacological activities, while its poorly aqueous solubility limits the development of solid oral dosage forms. In this study, PUE along with nicotinamide (NIC) were prepared into the coamorphous system by solvent-evaporation method and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). In addition, its dissolution behavior and solubilization mechanism were also investigated. PUE-NIC coamorphous was a single homogeneous binary system, with a single glass transition temperature at 35.1 ℃. In comparison to crystalline PUE, during the dissolution process, coamorphous PUE-NIC not only exhibited the "liquid-liquid phase separation" (LLPS) phenomenon, but the formation of Ap type complexation (1∶1 and 1∶2) between PUE and NIC molecules was also verified, which significantly improved the solubility of PUE and prolonged the supersaturation time, and would benefit its absorption.
