Objective To study the effect of sodium hyaluronate(SH) on cornea preservation to provide a basis for eyes banks cornea preservation. Methods SH was applied in the short-term and middle-term cornea preservation. The preservation effect was evaluated by corneal morphology, trypan blue-alizarin red staining, activity assay of SDH and G-6-P enzymes, and ultrastructural observation of corneal endothelium. Results The above indices were obviously better in the experiment group than in the control group (P

Recently,increasing cancer researches focus on antibody-drug conjugates(ADCs) which can improve the anti-tumor potency with less adverse effect while benefiting patients in the future. However,safety evaluation of ADCs is a big challenge because of complex components as well as in experience in preclinical studies. In this review,the authors reviewed the mode of action,hazard risks,and toxicity observed in preclinical/clinical studies of ADCs,summarized the preclinical studies of Adcetris(brentuximab vedotin)and Kadcyla(ado-trastuzumab emtansine),and suggested a better strategy of ADCs in preclinical safety evaluation.

This paper was aimed to study the influence ofBu-Shen Hua-TanFang (BSHTF) on the learning and memory function of diabetes mellitus (DM) rats. A total of 50 3-month-old male Wistar rats were randomlydivided into the control group, model group and 3 BSHTF groups (i.e., high-, middle-, and low-dose). A total of 35 mg·kg-1 streptozotocin (STZ) was intraperitoneally injected into the model and BSHT group. The same volume of citric acid-sodium citrate buffer solution was intraperitoneally injected into the control group. The intragastric administration of BSHTF at the dose of 20, 10, and 5 g·kg-1 was given to the BSHTF groups, respectively. The behavior and content of serum 3-deoxyglucosone (3-DG) were detected among DM rats after 30 days. The results showed that the levels of serum glucose in the model group and the BSHTF groups were obviously higher than that of the control group (P < 0.01). The swimming time to platform of rats in the model group was obviously prolonged compared to the control group with significant difference from the second day on (P < 0.01). The required time in different BSHTF intervention groups was obviously decreased compared with the model group from the 4th day (P< 0.05). The level of serum 3-DG in rats of the model group was obviously higher than that of the control group (P < 0.01). The level of serum 3-DG in rats of the middle-dose BSHTF group was obviously decreased compared with the model group (P < 0.05). It was concluded that BSHTF was able to improve the cognitive impairment among DM rats by reducing the levels of serum glucose and serum 3-DG.

OBJECTIVE: To study pharmacokinetics of valaciclovir hydrochloride tablets and to evaluate the bioequivalence of test and reference tablets. METHODS: In a two-period cross-over design test, 18 healthy volunteers were given a single oral dose of 600 mg test valaciclovir hydrochloride and 600 mg reference formulations respectively. Plasma concentrations of acyclovir were determined by HPLC method. The pharmacokinetic parameters of the two formulations were calculated and analyzed statistically. RESULTS: The main pharmacokinetic parameters of test vs. reference valacyclovir hydrochloride tablets were as follows:tmax(1.69?0.25)h vs. (1.72?0.26)h, Cmax(3.34?0.58) ?g?mL-1 vs. (3.40?0.49)?g?mL-1, t1/2(2.73?0.31)h vs. (2.97?0.33)h, AUC0～14(11.22?2.21) ?g?h?mL-1 vs. (11.12?1.90)?g?h?mL-1, AUC0～∞(11.76?2.15) ?g?h?mL-1 vs. (11.61?1.86)?g?h?mL-1, respectively. As compared with reference formulation, the relative bioavailability of test formulation was (101.06?11.72)%. CONCLUSION: The two preparations are bioequivalent.

Objective In order to know the influence of different time of indwelling urinary catheteron postoperative comfortation of patients with general anesthesia. Methods Six ease-control studies re-lated the influence of different time of indwelling urinary catheter on postoperative eomfortation of patientswith general anesthesia had analyzed by Meta-analysis method. Results According to the results ofMeta-analysis from the 6 documents, the postoperative comfortable level of patients with indwelling urinarycatheter before general anesthesia was better than patients with indwelling urinary catheter after generalanesthesia, OR=0.12(0.05～0.30). Conclusions Indwelling urinary catheter before general anesthesia can prevent postoperative uncomfortation, which is a kind of proper method.

Issues on basic medical English teaching,curriculum and the construction ne-cessity for teaching material were analyzed and discussed.The corresponding strategy toward these issues in our university and the progress we have made were reported.

AIM:Recently,amnion transplantation has been one of effective methods for curing corneal alkali burn,but its biomechanism is unclear.This study was to discuss the efficiency of different kinds of amnion on rabbit corneal alkali burn and to find the bioactive functions of the amnion.METHODS:The experiment was carried out in the Central Laboratory of Experimental Animals at Chongqing University of Medical Sciences between January and July in 2004.All the disposals were in accordance with the ethical standard of animals.①Placenta from healthy puerperants underwent uterine-incision delivery were offered by Department of Obstetrics in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing University of Medical Sciences.A total of 45 New Zealand rabbits were used for corneal alkali burn models and divided into fresh amniotic membrane(FAM),glycerin preserved amniotic membrane(GPAM),vacuum xeransis amniotic membrane(VXAM),alcolhol preserved amniotic membrane(APAM) and control groups,every group had 9 rabbits.②The FAM was prepared within 24 hours,and the preserved amnion were transplanted after 1 month.③The corneal opacity and corneal neovascularization were observed everyday during days 2-21 after operation and once every three days after days 21;corneal fluorescein staining was conducted to observe the repair of corneal epithelium on days 14,30,60 after operation;2 weeks,1 month and 2 months after operation,we did histopathological examination and scanning electron microscope observation.RESULTS:Forty-three rabbits were involved in the result analysis.①There were no significant differences in the corneal opacity and repair velocity of corneal epithelium among FAM,GPAM and VXAM,which were remarkably superior to APAM and controls.APAM group and control group had not distinct difference.②FAM had better effects on inhibiting corneal neovascularization than GPAM and VXAM.CONCLUSION:After transplantation,VXAM,GPAM and FAM can all accelerate corneal epithelial healing and lighten inflammation.FAM containing more bioactive materials,plays best.
