Objective:To study the effect of the extracting time and solvent on the concentration of main active components in Salvia Miltiorrhiza Bunge, and to provide basic data and theoretical guide to GEP(general extraction practice). Methods: Salvianolic acid B and Tanshinone ⅡA were extracted by 90% alcohol and water respectively from Salvia Miltiorrhiza Bunge and their contents were etermined by means of HPLC at regular intervals. Results: Extracting time and solvent were significant factors in the prcess of concentrating Salvianolic acid B and Tanshinone ⅡA from extract of Salvia Miltiorrhiza Bunge. Conclusion: Water is suitable for extracting Salvianolic acids, the extracting time is 40～50 minutes; alcohol is suitable for extracting Tanshinones, the extracting time is 20～30 minutes.

AIM: To Structure a series of diversifying combination of ginsenoside in order to provide the different samples for the pharmacological and pharmacodynamics experiments. METHODS: UNIFAC group contribution method is used for simulating the liquid liquid extraction, the proper extractants are chosen to carry out the experiments, and then the contents of the ginsenosides obtained with different extractants are detected through HPLC. RESULTS: The contents of the main ginsenoside varied with the change of the extractants' ratio, as a result a series of diversifying combination of ginsenoside are constructured. Within the ginsenoside which has greater amount, ginsenoside Rb 1 can be easily separated from Re, while Rd is hard to be separated, the experimental data were accordant to the theoretical prediction. CONCLUSION: Theoretical calculation combined with the optimizing of the extractants can structure a series of distinguished ginsenoside.

Objective: To study the change of placental corticotropin releasing hormone level in pregnant women entering spontaneous labor at term and preterm or posterm,and to investigate the value of CRH as an indicator of preterm labor. Methods: Subjects( n =200) were recruited to the study at their antenatal visits,and plasma samples were obtained at their routine antental clinic visits from 28 weeks to parturition at 2 weeks intervals.CRH were measured by radioimmunoassay. Results: CRH concentrations rose significantly as pregnancy developed and reached the highest level at delivery. Plasma CRH levels were significantly higher in preterm labor and lower in postterm labor after gestational 28 weeks( P

Objective To investigate the application value of transcranial Doppler ultrasonography(TCD) in critically ill children with cerebral dysfunction.Methods We detected the cerebral blood flow parameters[systolic velocity(Vs),mean velocity(Vm),end of diastolic velocity(Vd),pulsatility index(PI),resistance index(RI)] of middle cerebral artery in cerebral dysfunction group(n=20) and control group(no cerebral dysfunction,n=20),and observed the differences of those parameters between two groups.Children in cerebral dysfunction group were also divided into groups according to Glasgow Coma Score(GCS) and prognosis.The differences of each TCD parameter in diverse groups divided by GCS and by prognosis were analysed.Children in cerebral dysfunction group were checked TCD everyday until TCD parameters were normal.The relation between the days of TCD parameters′ reaching normal and GCS,duration of disorder of consciousness with correlation analysis were analysed.Results Vs,PI,RI in cerebral dysfunction group were higher than those in control group,while Vd was lower (P<0.05).(2)PI in the group of GCS less than 6 points(0.91±0.21) was higher than that in group of GCS 7-13 points(0.83±0.14)(P<0.05).The other parameters between two groups of GCS less than 6 points and GCS 7-13 points were not significantly indistinctive.Between the good prognosis group and the bad prognosis group,there were no significant differences in all parameters.(3) The days of TCD parameters′ reaching normal were negatively correlated with GCS(r=-0.653,P<0.01),but positively correlated with the duration of disorder of consciousness(r=0.923,P<0.01).Conclusion The cerebral hemodynamics of children with cerebral dysfunction is abnormal,the more serious cerebral dysfunction,the higher PI and the longer time for regaining normal TCD parameters.Constantly monitoring TCD could reflect the changes of cerebral hemodynamics and is valuable to assess the state of illness and prognosis.

Toinvestigate the implementation mode and effectiveness of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) in experimental teaching of physiology,PBL was applied in experimental teaching of circulatory physiology. Comparison of test scores and Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM) were used to evaluate teaching quality and teaching environment respectively. The results showed that both test and DREEM scores were higher in PBL group than in control group (P

Objective To evaluate the clinical application value of dual color fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) in detecting urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder.MethodsThe probes of chromosome 3,7,17centromeres and chromosome 9p21 region (p16) were labeled by random primer method.FISH was performed on interphase nuclei of 80 urine specimens of cancer of the urinary bladder and 20 cases of healthy persons served as normal controls.Threshold value was established.The pathological diagnosis was the golden standard.Chromosome aberration was counted.The correlations between chromosome aberration and pathologic grading and staging and their sensibility of diagnosis for urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder were analyzed. Results The rate of numerical aberration of chromosome 3,7,17,9p21 was 47.5％(38/80),60.7％ (49/80),51.3％ (41/80) and 58.8％ (47/80) respectively.The positive rate of the combined use of 3,7,17 and 9p21 chromosome probes for detecting urothelial carcinoma of urinary bladder was 76.3％ (61/80).The aberrations had no correlation to tumor stage.The aberration of chromosome 3,7 and 17 were correlated to pathologic grade significantly (P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionThe progression of urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder is related to the aberrations of chromosome.FISH is believed to be a very important method in diagnosis of urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder,which may have important clinical significance for the postoperative recurrence detection and prognosis.

The development of the imaging technology enables diagnostic methods of detect intracranial aneurysms diversified. In recent years, the diagnosis of aneurysms was confirmed by digital subtraction angiography (DSA) which was regarded as the "gold standards". However, CT angiography (CTA), which appears as a fast, non-invasive, and easily achievable examination, is becoming as a new option in clinic. With the development of the CT facility and upgrade of the workstation software, CTA is more widely used in both diagnosing and treating intracranial aneurysm. This article reviews the sensitivity and specificity of CTA in the detection of intracranial aneurysms, and systematically analyzes its advantages and disadvantages as well as its development, imaging methods.
