OBJECTIVE:To establish the method for the determination of tigecycline (TGC) in human plasma. METHODS:After precipitated by acetonitrile,the plasma sample was determined by LC-MS/MS. Using d9-TGC as internal standard,Kromasil C18 column was used with mobile phase consisted of water (containing 0.05% TFA)-acetonitrile (gradient elution) at flow rate of 0.6 ml/min,column temperature of 40 ℃. The ion transitions were performed under ESI positive MRM model at m/z 586.3→513.2 and m/z 595.3→514.3 for TGC and internal standard,respectively. RESULTS:The linear range of TGC was 25-2 000 ng/ml (r=0.999 8),and lowest quantification limit was 25 ng/ml;intra-day and inter-day RSD was 3.15%-7.23%,and relative error was-4.53%-10.48%. Plasma sample kept stable after 3 times of freezing and thawing cycle,at room temperature for 24 h,in automat-ic sample injector for 24 h and freezing for 42 d (RSD<15%). Plasma concentration of TGC was 0-438.0 ng/ml in one patient with pan-drug resistant bacteria infection(0-12 h after administration). CONCLUSIONS:The developed method is accurate,sensi-tive and specific,and can be used for plasma concentration determination of TGC and pharmacokinetic study.

Objective To study mental status of recovered two year after in shake area crowd of gansu wen-xian. Methods Fifty former disaster crowd were assessed with SCL-90, Coping Style Questionnaire and Social Support Questionnaire two year after their discharge, 50 healthy medical staffs of gan-su CTM Affiliated Hospital of logistics ensure center were assessed with same instruments as control. Results The former disaster crowd and 5 subscores of SCL-90 with higher average scores than Chinese norm and results of control, they were somatization( F =4. 31) , phobia ( F = 5. 25) , obtrude ( F =5. 91) , P＜0. 01, depression ( F = 3. 11) anxiety ( F = 3. 74) , P ＜ 0. 05; The former disaster crowd felt more objective support, used more rationalization, but were less capable in problem solving. In former disaster crowd, problem-solving, objective social support and utility of the support were negatively correlated with subscores of SCL-90 ( r = -0. 31～-0. 40, P ＜0. 05) ; while immature coping, such as fantasy, withdrawal and rationalization were positively correlated with subscores of SCL-90 ( r = 0. 40 ~ 0. 60, P ＜ 0. 05).Conclusion Former disaster crowd still have psychosomatic symptoms and need social and psychology intervene and support.

This paper aims to establish an accurate finite element model of complete lumbar spine with complex lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS), and then to do comparison and analysis of normal model and decompression surgery model. Firstly, we chose some patients with complex LSS and then collected the CT scanned data. Then we generated a complete FE model of Lumbar with complex LSS using a specially designed modeling system, and we also created a normal lumbar model and a decompression treated model. We applied same boundary conditions in all the three models. The results showed that the active movement range of complex LSS was smaller than that of the normal model, but the movement range of the decompression model was larger than that of the normal. There are stress concentration around the endplate and disk at the degenerative intervertebral? disk L4-L5 and adjacent disk L3-L4 for LSS model, and the stress of the decompression model increased more significantly. This simulation demonstrated that the treatment of simple decompression for lumbar spine with complex LSS can release the pain, but may result in unstability and accelerate the degeneration.

Objective:To implement an intervention with community-dwelling middle-aged and elderly people through a new science promotion approach, and to evaluate changes in the level of bone health awareness.Methods:From April 2017 to June 2017, 200 community-dwelling middle-aged and elderly people aged 50 years and over were randomly included.They were divided into the intervention group receiving a new science promotion intervention(n=100, with 50 males and 50 females)and the control group(n=100, with 50 males and 50 females). Baseline and follow-up assessments of bone health awareness were performed before and after the one-year intervention.A questionnaire survey on preferences for different types of science promotion articles in WeChat accounts was conducted.Differences in scores for intervention effects before and after intervention were compared between the two groups.Potential influencing factors for the scale score were examined by a multi-factor analysis.Results:After one year of intervention, scores for intervention effects were higher in the intervention group than in the control group( P<0.001). In the intervention group, scores were higher after intervention than before intervention( P<0.001). In the control group, scores after follow-up were slightly higher than those at baseline(29.4±11.4 vs.27.9±10.1, P<0.001). The increase in scores before and after intervention was greater in the intervention group than in the control group( P<0.001). Baseline score, group designation, history of drinking and diabetes impacted the scores in middle-aged and elderly women, while other factors did not.Most middle-aged and older people preferred texts illustrated with pictures, and older people were more receptive to videos. Conclusions:The new science promotion method is beneficial to bone health management, can improve bone health awareness in middle-aged and elderly people.

Objective: To explore the association between hypothyroidism and sleep breathing disorders in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods: A total of 784 patients with CHD were consecutively enrolled at the Emergency & Critical Care Center of Beijing Anzhen Hospital from June 2015 to May 2017. According to thyroid function test results, patients were divided into hypothyroidism group (79 cases) and non-hypothyroidism group (705 cases). All patients had undergone sleep monitoring. The sleep apnea status was compared between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression and linear regression models were used to analyze the association between hypothyroidism and sleep breathing disorders in patients with CHD. Results: The proportion of females, mean body weight and body mass index in the hypothyroidism group were higher than those in the non-hypothyroidism group [26.6% vs.16.2%, (78.6±11.6) kg vs. (75.7±12.0) kg, (27.7±3.2) kg/m² vs. (26.6±3.5) kg/m², all P<0.05]. Patients in hypothyroidism group had a decreased average oxygen saturation (SaO₂) compared with patients in non-hypothyroidism group [ (93.2±2.9) % vs. (93.9±2.0) %, P=0.030]. In addition, events of hypoventilation in hypothyroidism group were significantly higher than those in non-hypothyroidism group[92.5 (45.8, 758.3) times vs. 68.0 (33.0, 125.0) times, P=0.013]. There were no significant differences in apnea hypopnea index, diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea and other sleep breathing parameters between the two groups (P>0.05). A multiple linear regression analysis found that in patients with CHD, the correlation between hypothyroidism and average sleep SaO₂ was significant (β=-0.508, 95%CI -0.989--0.026, P=0.039). Conclusions: CHD patients with hypothyroidism had a lower sleep average SaO₂, and a higher sleep hypopnea events. There is a correlation between hypothyroidism and sleep hypoxia in patients with CHD.

Objective: To investigate the impact of moderate/severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on the prognosis of acute myocardial infarction. Methods: We prospectively selected patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who were hospitalized at the Emergency Critical Care Center of Beijing Anzhen Hospital from June 2015 to May 2017. Patients who met the inclusion criteria were examined with portable sleep respiration monitoring. Patients were divided into moderate/severe OSA group (apnea-hypopnea index (AHI)≥15 beats/hour) and no/mild OSA group (AHI<15 beats/hour) according to sleep AHI. The incidence of major adverse cerebrovascular events (MACCE) after discharge was compared between the two groups, and the independent risk factors of MACCE were analyzed. Results: A total of 432 patients were enrolled in this study, including 211 moderate/severe OSA patients (48.8%). Compared with no/mild OSA group,patients with moderate/severe OSA had higher body mass index ((27.17±3.22) kg/m² vs. (25.55±3.44) kg/m², t=-5.033,P<0.001), higher proportion of history of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (18.5%(39/211) vs. 8.6%(19/221), χ²=9.076,P=0.003), and higher proportion of 3-vessel disease (31.3%(66/211) vs. 24.9%(55/221), χ²=10.196,P=0.017). The median follow-up time was 1.0 (0.7, 1.7) years. The incidence of MACCE in the moderate/severe OSA and no/mild group was 19.9%(42/211) and 11.3%(25/221), respectively. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed a higher cumulative risk of MACCE in patients with moderate/severe OSA (log-rank test,χ²=5.467, P=0.019). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that moderate/severe OSA (HR=1.915, 95%CI 1.016-3.611, P=0.045) and diabetes mellitus (HR=1.819, 95%CI 1.022-3.238, P=0.042) were independent risk factors for MACCE at 1 year post discharge in patients with AMI. Conclusions: Nearly half of AMI patients are complicated with moderate/severe OSA in this patient cohort. Coronary artery disease is more severe in AMI patients complicating with moderate/severe OSA. Moderate/severe OSA is an independent risk factor for MACCE at 1 year after discharge in patients with AMI. Whether the prognosis of AMI can be improved by intervention of OSA remains to be investigated. Trial Registration Clinical Trial.gov, NCT03362385.
