Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimizing the ultrasonic-assisted extraction technology of pigment from Coreopsis tinctoria. The results showed that the flavonoids were the main constituents of the pigment Based on single factor experiments, a four-factor-level experiment design were developed by box-benhnhen central composite design method with causal factors of ultrasonic temperature, ultrasonic time, ratio of liquid to raw material, the concentrations of ethanol in solvent and the extract absorbance value for the response. The interactive effects of four crucial technological parameters were assessed by response surface methodology (RSM). The optimum ultrasonic-assisted extraction conditions were as follow: ultrasonic temperature was 70 °C, ultrasonic time was 60 min, the concentrations of ethanol in solvent was 72.25% and the ratio of liquid to raw material was 32.05:1 mL . g-1. Under the optimum extraction technology conditions, the absorbance value was 0. 936. The conditidns are suitable for the extraction process regression analysis and parameter optimization.

Availability of appropriate drugs for children has been a bottleneck both at home and abroad for years.As a result, drugs for adults that are market available emerge a choice of convenience for children's treatment instead.For unique physiological and psychological characteristics of children, these drugs must be dispensed on individual basis before usage to children in question.Such drugs play a key role in children's treatment, and incur many problems on the other hand in their use and practice, such as drug stability, dosage accuracy, potential risks, as well as legitimacy in drug dispensing and use.A safe, reasonable and normalized use of such drugs calls for an orchestrated effort among pharmacists, trade associations and drug regulators as well.

CT data regarding PUMCⅡ d2 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis obtained from one female patient were input into modeling software minics 11.11 to obtain medical simulation model.Then finite element analysis models of AIS patients (T1-S) were created by introducing simulation models into software abaqus 6.7.Finite element models of T6 11 segments were corrected by 5 different correction methods:simple concave bracing,simple convex pressurization,concave distraction and convex compression simultaneously,concave distraction prior to convex compression and concave distraction after convex pressurization.Abaqus software was used to simulate correction of scoliosis with vertebral arch pedicle screw by loading 50 N,100 N,and 200 N distraction forces on the concave side pedicles of the end vertebrae T6 and T11.The displacement of vertebrae T6 in Y-axis (sagittal plane) and Z-axis (coronal plane),which respectively represented the correction effects of kyphosis and scoliosis,was compared between prior to and after correction.Simple concave distraction provided better outcomes in terms of displacement of T6 in Z-axis than the remaining four methods (P ＜ 0.01).Concave distraction and convex compression simultaneously,concave distraction prior to convex pressurization and concave distraction after convex compression produced identical displacements of T6 in Y-axis,which were all better than simple concave distraction (P＜ 0.01).The present findings imply that for curative effects of five methods on correction of scoliosis in the coronal plane:simple concave distraction＞ concave distraction and convex compression simultaneously = concave distraction prior to convex compressio= concave distraction after convex compression ＞ simple convex pressurization;for curative effects of five methods on correction of kyphosis in the sagittal plane:simple convex compression ＞ concave distraction and convex compression simultaneously = concave distraction prior to convex compression= concave distraction after convex compression＞ simple concave bracing.Simple concave distraction could not produce obvious corrective effects on kyphosis rather than lead to worsened kyphosis to some extent.Simple convex compression could not produce obvious corrective effects on scoliosis rather than result in aggravated scoliosis to some extent.

This paper analyzed current problems and challenges facing hospitals in alarm management both abroad and at home. Based on a survey conducted on alarm management in hospitals, plus an analysis on different kinds of data interfaces and data exchange protocols of the medical equipment used in ICUs, a solution of alarm management is put forwarded which is based on alarm information integration and processing. It aims at improving medical equipment alarm management and reducing relevant adverse events.

Objective To explore the effects of cisplatin on the proliferation and autophagy of endometrial carcinoma Ishikawa cells.Methods Ishikawa cell proliferation was detected by MTS assay after the cells were treated with CDDP.To assess the level of autophagy,transmission electron microscope and Western blot were used to detect LC3 and Beclin1 expression;fluorescence microscopy was used to observe the fluorescence aggregation of green fluorescent protein and microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 fusionprotein (GFP-LC3).Results Cisplatin of 10 g/mL inhibited the proliferation of Ishikawa cells,with an increase of time and concentration,the inhibition of cell proliferation was significantly elevated (P ＜ 0.01).Transmission electron microscopy showed that under a condition of cisplatin on Ishikawa endometrial cancer cell,autophagy occurred.With an increase of concentration and dosage,Western blot showed that autophagy related protein LC3 expression was up-regulated,but becline-1 had no obvious change.LC3 expression level was higher in 12h-treatment with 20 μg/mL cisplatin group than in the control group,and was higher in 24h-treatment group than in 12h-treatment group.Conclusions Cisplatin inhibits proliferation of Ishikawa cells and induces autophagy of the cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner.Autophagy related MAP-LC3 is involved in the molecular mechanisms of autophagy induced by cisplatin in endometrial carciHom.

Objective To study the clinical result of the surgical treatment of upper cervical vertebra disease from high anterior cervical retropharyngeal approach.Methods Among 14 patients,there were 7 C_(2.3)disc hernia- rions combined with C_(2.3)dislocations,3 Hangman fractures,2 odontoid process fractures and 2 C_3 tumors.All patients underwent the high anterior cervical retropharyngeal approach.10 cases were given discectomy of C_(2.3)or focus clear- ance of C_3,iliac bone autograft or titanium cage filled and internal fixation with titanium plate.2 cases of odontoid process fractures were given anterior screw fixation.Results 14 cases got successful exposure.The decompression, reduction,lesion clearance and fusion with internal fixation were done in all patients.There were no important vascu- lar or nerve injuries.The surgical treatment could improve the spinal cord nerve function to a certain degree for the cases with compression of spinal cord.Conclusion Good exposure of upper cervical spine and effective surgical oper- ation could be achieved from high anterior cervical retropharyngeal approach,with minimal trauma and complication, and it was a favorable approach.

Measuring the content of soluble reducing sugar, total sugar, soluble protein, guanosine, alkaloids, and succinic acid of Pinellia ternata tuber were measured by anthrone-sulfuric acid colorimetric method, Coomassie brilliant blue method, RP-HPLC, reverse potentiometric titration, acid dye colorimetry, respectively. The result showed that yellow light could promote the growth and development of P. ternata and increase the content of soluble reducing sugar, total sugar, alkaloids, and succinic acid. Under blue light could promote the content of soluble protein and guanosine. Red and yellow light increased the content of chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b, contrastively blue light reduced the content of chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b. White film through the most uniform spectrum was most conducive to the synthesis of chlorophyll a. As single film, blue film, yellow film were more conducive to the synthesis of chlorophyll a, green film and red film had been relatively beneficial to the synthesis of chlorophyll b. Bulbil formed the largest number and the biggest propagation coefficient of P. ternata under red light showed that it could increase the production of P. ternata under red light.
