China Pharmacy 1991;0(01):-
OBJECTIVE:To establish an HPLC method for determining nicardipine hydrochloride(NCD) microspheres in cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) of rabbits by HPLC.METHODS:NCD microspheres were injected into the cistern of rabbits.Cerebrospinal fluid was sampled at different time points and NCD was separated on Agilent-Zorbax column at a flow rate of 1.0 mL?min-1 with column temperature of 30 ℃.The mobile phase consisted of methanol-water(75 :25,pH=6.0) and detection wavelength was set at 236 nm.RESULTS:The linear range of NCD was 2~128 ng?mL-1(r=0.999 8) with recovery of 98.07%.The RSD of intra-day and inter-day were both below 1.47%.The LOD was about 0.5 ng?mL-1.On 3~11 day after medication,the concentration of NCD fluctuated within(14.15?0.37) ng?mL-1.CONCLUSION:The method is simple,rapid and accurate for determination of NCD in cerebrospinal fluid of rabbits.
2.Effects of acupuncture on lactoferrin content in tears and tear secretion in patients suffering from dry eyes: a randomized controlled trial.
Journal of Integrative Medicine 2012;10(9):1003-8
With the understanding of the immune inflammatory response in the pathogenesis of dry eyes, and the limitations of widely used artificial tears and numerous pharmaceuticals and methods to promote tear secretion, clinicians pay more attention to the therapies that can promote tear secretion actively. Acupuncture treatment for dry eye may meet this requirement.

0.05).Conclusion BNP and hsCRP may be involved in the occurrence and sustainment of atrial fibrillation.The serum levels of BNP and hsCRP may serve as independent indexes of atrial fibrillation.CK-MB may be not involved in the incidence and development of atrial fibrillation.
4.Advances on association between indoor air pollution and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine in human urine
Journal of Environmental and Occupational Medicine 2022;39(4):465-469
8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in human urine is a marker reflecting oxidative stress and DNA oxidative damage. People spend 80%-90% of their life indoors; therefore, indoor air quality is directly related to human health. In this paper, the urinary 8-OHdG levels were presented in populations grouped by different demographic characteristics, lifestyle, occupational exposure, and health status, and elucidated indoor pollutants affecting human urinary 8-OHdG level, such as pollutants from outdoor sources, smoking, indoor combustion and cooking fumes, the chemicals in interior decoration materials, and building foundation soils. The article aims to provide a theoretical basis for predicting the impact of indoor air pollution on human health (DNA oxidative damage and related diseases) by measuring the concentration of 8-OHdG in human urine.

Objective To explore the clinical experience of endovascular treatment for arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) of lower extremities.Methods Endovascular treatment were performed on 22 patients (26 limbs) suffering from ASO which were diagnosed by magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).The clinical efficacy after operation was analyzed.Results Twenty-two lower extremities of 18 patients successfully accepted endovascular treatment with 12 stents planted without major complications.Four cases failed to endovascular treatment and 2 of them converted to bypass surgery.The clinical symptoms of limb ischemia vanished or significantly improved after treatment.The ankle brachial index (ABI) of affected extremities increased from 0.35?0.13 (before operation) to 0.70?0.15 (after operation),P

Objective To study imaging findings of Sturge-Weber syndrome. Methods The clinical manifestations and imaging findings of 11 cases suffered from Sturge-Weber syndrome were analysed. 10 cases had facial vascular nerves angioma in the trigeminal nerve distribation. Routine CT examination was performed in all 11 cases, 2 cases had head radiography and 8 cases had MRI, 5 cases had enhanced CT and 3 cases had enhanced MRI.Results Imaging finding included:on the affected hemisphere, cortical calcifications (n=11), brain atrophy (n=9), the interfaces between gray matter and white matter blured, dilated subependymal veins,enlargeel choroids plexus (n=7) and increasing thickness of cranial diploe (n=8). The choroids plexus of lateral ventricle was prominent enhanced in 5 cases. Enhancement of cortical areas and vessels on the surface of brain were noted in 6 cases. Conclusion Head radiography has finite effects in the diagnosis of Sturge-Weber syndrome, MRI combined with CT plays an important role in the diagnosis of this syndrome.

OBJECTIVE:To explore clinical efficacy of levoearnitine combined with trimetazidine in the treatment of ischemic cardiomyopathy(ICM) heart failure in elderly patients.METHODS:64 ICM elderly patients with heart failure were randomly divided into control group and observation group(n=32).Both group were given therapy of regulating blood lipid,antiplatelet,anti ischemia and conventional anti-heart failure therapy.Observation group were additionally intravenously injected with levoearnitine and given oral dose of trimetazidine for 2 weeks.Cardiac function classification,left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD),left ventricular end systolic diameter(LVESD) and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) of patients were determined before and after treatment.RESULTS:The cardiac function and the level of LVEDD,LVESD and LVEF in observation group were all significantly better than in control group.There were statistical significance in difference between two groups(P

ObjectiveTo evaluate whether the junior high school students reared by their grandparents in 0~3 years old have more emotional and behavioral problems than their counterparts who reared by birth parents since birth. MethodsThis study was carried out to compare emotional and behavioral outcomes,using Youth Self-Report(YSR) between junior high school students reared by their grandparents in 0~3 years old and junior high school students reared by birth parents since their birth. ResultsTwo-sample test showed that the study group had significantly higher raw scores of the YSR sub-scale of somatic complaint[(2.93±2.83) vs (2.00±2.35),t=2.08,P<0.05],social problems[(3.56±2.20) vs (2.42±1.99),t=3.15,P<0.01],thought problems[(3.29±3.26) vs (2.16±2.29),t=2.30,P<0.05],delinquency [(2.77±2.33) vs 2.01±1.60),t=2.19,P<0.05] ,aggression[(7.89±6.32) vs 5.96±4.66),t=2.01,P<0.05],externalizing problems [(10.67±8.07) vs (7.97±5.61),t=2.19,P<0.05]and total problems [(42.64±22.76) vs (33.61±19.25),t=2.47,P<0.05]than the comparison group. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to control the effects of live events stress. The following analyses showed that the two groups showed no significant difference except for social problems (P<0.05). ConclusionMany factors that affect mental health of the junior high school students. There is a significant differences in the social problems between the junior high school students reared by grandparents from infancy to the toddler stage and their counterparts. The grandparents should pay more attention to help their grandchildren developing social skills in their babyhood.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the changes of serum total bilirubin(TBil) and hybrid muscle crea-tine kinase isozyme(CK-MB),and its clinical implication in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Methods The levels of TBil and CK - MB were measured in 49 neonates with HIE (15 mild cases, 20 moderate cases and 14 serious cases), and 31 normal neonates on the first day and the fourth day after birth. Results The levels of TBil on the first day after birth were significantly higher than those in normal neonates;the levels of TBil were correlated with the severity of HIE(P
