Quantitative NMR (qNMR) is a technology based on the principle of NMR. This technology does not need the references of the determined components, which supplies a solution for the problem of reference scarcity in the quantitative analysis of traditional Chinese medicines. Moreover, this technology has the advantages of easy operation, non-destructiveness for the determined sample, high accuracy and repeatability, in comparison with HPLC, LC-MS and GC-MS. NMR technology has achieved quantum leap in sensitivity and accuracy with the development of NMR hardware. In addition, the choice of appropriate experimental parameters of the pre-treatment and measurement procedure as well as the post-acquisition processing is also important for obtaining high-quality and reproducible NMR spectra. This review summarizes the principle of qHNMR, the various experimental parameters affecting the accuracy and the precision of qHNMR, such as signal to noise ratio, relaxation delay, pulse width, acquisition time, window function, phase correction and baseline correction, and their corresponding optimized methods. Moreover, the application of qHNMR in the fields of quantitation of single or multi-components of traditional Chinese medicines, the purity detection of references, and the quality analysis of foods has been discussed. In addition, the existing questions and the future application prospects of qNMR in natural product areas are also presented.

OBJECTIVE To know the basic situation of nosocomial infection control and management in all levels of hospitals in Anhui Province,and provide the theory basis for the future work.METHODS To investigate the students participating in the nosocomial infection management training class by using the questionnaire.RESULTS There were altogether 273 people from 217 hospitals accepting the investigation.From 217 hospitals there were 46 1st grade hospitals and 160 2nd grade hospitals and 11 third graed hospitals.In all the people engaged in the nosocomial infection management,83.88% were the females and 67.03% for nursing staff,the age of 30-50 years old was 79.84%,the middle professional rank accounted for 72.53%,and 79.86% people′s record of formal schooling was the technical college and below.CONCLUSIONS The basic situation of nosocomial infection management in majority hospitals of our Province is good,but in some hospitals,the function of the structure has not certainly obtained the full display.In order to adapt the development of the nosocomial infection supervisory work,promote it to be more perfect,personnel structure,resources arrangement,and administrative offices function should give enough reconstruction and construction.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the surgical site infection(SSI)in clean surgical sites and the perioperative antibiotic usage.METHODS The incidence of SSI and the antibiotics usages in 842 cases during perioperative were analyzed retrospectively in 32 hospitals.RESULTS One case with nosocomial infection was found(0.12%).The use rate of antibiotics was 98.57%.Among 802 cases using prophylactic antibiotics,the antibiotics were given in 181 cases thirty minutes to two hours before operation.136 cases were given 24 h before operation.And 485 cases were given after operation;195 cases stopped using antibiotics after 24 h,472 cases stopped using antibiotics after 4-6 days and 135 cases stopped to use antibiotics after 7 days.CONCLUSIONS The major problem is excessive use of antibiotic in clean surgical site during perioperation,long duration of antibiotics prophylaxis,more expensive antibiotics and unnecessary combination of antibiotics,suggesting that it be important to strengthen the management of antibiotics.

AIM: To explore the effect of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) combined with vitamin E on the inflammatory reaction in acute kidney injury ( AKI) rats.METHODS:Gentamicin was used to in-duce AKI and the rats were treated with BMSCs combined with vitamin E.After treatment, the rat plasma and kidney tis-sues were collected, and the expression of inflammatory factors at mRNA and protein levels was detected by real-time quan-titative PCR and ELISA.RESULTS:After the treatment with BMSCs combined with vitamin E, the inflammatory proteins were down-regulated in the plasma and the renal tissues.Compared with single treatment group, the decreases in the in-flammatory proteins were more obvious in combined treatment group.CONCLUSION: The method of BMSCs combined with vitamin E takes the anti-inflammatory effect on AKI, indicating a new and potential mode in clinical application for AKI therapy.

ABSTRACT:Objective To explore the risk factors for maternal adverse pregnancy outcomes.Methods An unmatched case-control study based on hospital was performed.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze the related factors of maternal adverse pregnancy outcomes,including general condition,history of fertility,abnormal symptoms and diseases during pregnancy.Results Univariate analysis results showed that high education level of gravida might be the protective factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes.The risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcome might include advanced maternal age,intensive workload,frequent pregnancy,history of spontaneous abortion,severe morning sickness,and sickness during pregnancy or progestation.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that high education level of gravida (OR=0.63,95% CI:0.50-0.80)was the protective factor of adverse pregnancy outcomes;severe morning sickness (OR=2 .1 3 ,9 5% CI:1 .6 3-2 .7 9 )and sickness during progestation (OR=2.25,95% CI:1.06-4.77)were the risk factors for maternal adverse pregnancy outcomes.Conclusion The level of maternal education should be improved.We should attach great importance to preventive education and thorough treatment of severe morning sickness. Couples should be encouraged to have physical examination before marriage and pregnancy.Corresponding pregnancy care guidance should be given to pregnant women with different physical conditions so as to effectively reduce the occurrence of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Objective To explore the effects of positive end-expiratory pressure on intraoperative pulmonary function and respiratory mechanics in patients receiving continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion.Methods Ninety patients (55 males,35 females,aged 40-70 years,ASA grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ) undergoing continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion were selected and divided into 3 groups (n=30 each): regular volume controlled ventilation group (group A),5 cm H2O PEEP group (group B) and 10 cm H2O PEEP group (group C).After tracheal intubation,the mechanical ventilation parameters in groups A,B and C were respectively given tidal volume (VT) 10 ml/kg without positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP),VT 6 ml/kg with 5 cm H2O PEEP,and VT 6 ml/kg with 10cm H2O.PETCO2 was maintained at 35-45 mm Hg.Arterial blood samples were collected for blood gas analysis 5 min after (T1),before CHPP (T2),the end of CHPP (T3),and before the end of mechanical ventilation (T4).Besides,Pplat,Pmean,Ppeak,PaCO2,PaO2were recorded and Cdyn,OI,RI,A-aDO2 as well as VD/VT were calculated at all time points simultaneously.Pulmonary complications during 7 days after surgery were also recorded.Results Compared with group A,Ppeak,Pplat,A-aDO2 and RI were all significantly lower (P<0.05),while OI and VD/VT were higher in groups B and C at T1-T4 (P<0.05);at T2-T4,Cdyn and PaO2 were higher with lower Pmean in groups B and C (P<0.05).Compared with T1,Ppeak,Pplat and Pmean were higher (P<0.05) while Cdyn was lower (P<0.05) in group A at T2-T4;In Group B,Ppeak and Pplat were higher at T3 (P<0.05),Pmean was higher at T2-T4 (P<0.05) and Cdyn was lower at T3,T4 (P<0.05);in group C,Ppeak,Pplat and Pmean were all higher at T2-T4 (P<0.05),Cdyn was lower at T3,T4 (P<0.05);OI and PaO2 were lower (P<0.05),while A-aDO2,VD/VT and RI were all higher (P<0.05) at T2-T4 in the three groups.In addition,the incidence rates of pulmonary infection,hypoxemia,and atelectasis were significantly lower in groups B and C during 7 days after surgery than those of group A (P<0.05).Conclusion PEEP (5 cm H2O) with VT (6 ml/kg) could effectively improve intraoperative pulmonary function and reduce the risk of perioperative pulmonary complications of the patients receiving continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion.

ObjectiveTo measure the perfusion parameters of liver fibrosis of dog model with 64-slice spiral CT,and compare with positive control to reflect the degree of liver fibrosis,and analyze the correlation with VEGF values.Methods Liver fibrosis was induced in dogs by intraperitoneal injection of CC14 and high fat diet.CT perfusion scan and liver biopsies were performed.The perfusion parameters were measured according to the liver fibrosis models,and the correlation with VEGF values was analyzed.ResultsThe animals in experimental group were successfully induced different degree of liver fibrosis.In normal group,the hepatic artery perfusion,portal vein perfusion and total hepatic blood flow were (28.25 ±2.19)ml/(min · 100 g),(53.53 ± 10.71)ml/(min · 100 g) and (81.78 ± 18.56) ml/(min · 100 g).The PVP and TLP values of the liver fibrosis models of 0 - 4 stages declined gradually,and it had statistical significance,while the HAP values increased.The PVP and TLP values were positive correlated with fibrosis stage.The VEGF values of the pathological models of 0 - 4 stages ascended significantly.Conclusions The dog liver fibrosis models that are similar to human hepatic fibrosis have been successfully induced by low dose CC14 and high fat diet.CT perfusion can be used to monitor the tendency of the hemodynamic in different degree of fibrosis.VEGF may play an important role during liver fibrogenesis.
