OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the bioequiavailability of two kinds of loratadine tabletes in Chinese healthy volunteers.METHODS:A single oral dose 40 mg of two loratadine preparations(reference and test preparations)was given to 20 volunteers(whom were divided into two groups)in a randomized cross-over study.The concentration of loratadine in plasma was determined by solid phase extraction-HPLC.RESULTS:The main pharmacokinetic parameters of reference and test preparations were as follows:Cmax were(17.00?3.90)and(18.41?2.58)?g?L-1;tmax were(1.06?0.25)and(0.93?0.20)h;t1/2Ke were(1.34?0.38)and(1.08?0.38)h;AUC0～∞ were(37.41?17.38)and(36.38?16.73)?g?h?L-1;AUC0～8 were(35.11?15.72)and(34.76?15.34)?g?h?L-1,respectively.The relative bioavailability of the test preparation was(99.0?18.7)% as against the reference preparation,and no significant differences was noted for the two formulations in ANOVA and two-one side t test.CONCLUSION:The two formulations were bioequivalent.

ERP system is introduced. Combined with the deficiencies of management of medical consumable materials in supply chain and high-value materials, the application of ERP to workflow, fundamental material, operation and high-value material management are explored. It indicates that although with some deficiencies, this ERP system optimizes business process and then improves work efficiency of management of medical consumable materials greatly.

Objective To evaluate the effect of -477C/T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in promoter region of ABCA1 gene on plasma levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods -477C/T genotypes in promoter region of ABCA1 gene were assessed in 96 CAD patients and 100 healthy individuals with polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP), and distribution of the -477C/T genotypes was compared between CAD group and healthy group, and also between patients with different CAD clinical manifestations. The clinical indexes associated with CAD were also compared among the three genotypes. Results The distributive frequency of CC, CT, or TT genotype of CAD group and healthy group was different from one another, and the proportion of the TT genotype or the T allele was obviously higher in CAD group than in healthy group (P

Objective To investigate the pressures from night shifts among nurses from pediatrics department and find the countermeasures.Methods A self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate the pressures from night shifts among 112 nurses from pediatrics department as well as the reasons.Results 110 of the nurses(98.2%) assumed that the pressures from night shifts was intensive.The main reasons for the pressures came out of heavy workload,shortage of staff and stuff and the unsettled balance between job and family.Conclusion Such measures as reasonable distributions of nurses,abound supply of stuff and reduced working links may be effective for the alleviation of the pressures on nurses at night shifts,motivated activeness in them and then the enhancement of nursing quality.

OBJECTIVEThis study aims to investigate the effects of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and calcium hydroxide on proliferation and differentiation of human pulp cells from primary and permanent teeth.

METHODSCell proliferation was detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay. The mRNA expression levels of dentinogenesis-related factors, including alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP), and odontoclastogenesis-related factors, such as osteo- protegerin (OPG) and receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), were determined by real time polymerase chain reac- tion (PCR).

RESULTSPrimary and permanent pulp cells treated with calcium hydroxide exhibited significantly lower proli- feration rates than the control cells (P<0.01). By contrast, the MTA-treated group showed significantly higher proliferation rates than the control group (P<0.01). Real time PCR results showed that calcium hydroxide-treated primary pulp cells exhi- bited significantly decreased ALP, DSPP, and OPG expression compared with the control group (P<0.01). Conversely, the MTA-treated group displayed significantly increased ALP, DSPP, and OPG expression (P<0.01). Calcium hydroxide-treated primary pulp cells also exhibited significantly upregulated RANKL expression (P < 0.01); by contrast, MTA-treated cells did not show any change in RANKL expression (P>0.05). Likewise, MTA-treated permanent pulp cells showed significantly upregulated ALP and DSPP expression (P < 0.01). However, the calcium hydroxide-treated group remained almost the same as the control group (P > 0.05). Neither MTA nor calcium hydroxide affected OPG and RANKL expression in per- manent pulp cells (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONMTA is more suitable as a pulp-capping agent, particularly in primary teeth, than calcium hydroxide.

The threat of cancer to human being' s health is definite.In order to find more effective cures,experts has always taking the mechanism of tumorigenesis as a research foucus and hot spot.As everyone knows,the basic biological behaviors of malignant cells have changed a lot,such as cell proliferation,apoptosis,and so on,and the causes are related to the aberrant methylation reaction occurred in these cells.Researchers have found out that DNA methylation in tumor tissues were obviously different from that in normal tissues,with the charateristics of extensive hypomethylation and localized hypermethylation.To identify the effect of abnormal methylation reaction in the evolution and progression of tumor,this article is aiming to overview those previously researches about the abnormal methylation reaction in tumor cell and its effect on cell growth.

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,which occurrence and development involved kinds of cells and genes changes,is a vital part of the primary carcinoma of liver.The cellular origin may includes bile duct epithelial cells,hepatic stem cells and hepatic cells.The macroscopic type may includes:nass-forming types,periductal infiltrating types,intraductal growth types.The fact was revealed that different macroscopic type of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma has different clinical features,outcomes and prognosis.The author reviewed recently published studies covering various aspects of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,focusing especially on the macroscopic subtypes and related cell features,to discover the relaticn between macroscopic type and cellular origin of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and better understand the pathogenesis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.

Objective To investigate the role of ileocecal valve in children patients with intussus-ceptions by colonoscopy after pneumatic air enema reduction. Methods A total of 106 intussusceptions chil dren patients, who recovered with pneumatic air edema reduction, were recruited to the study. They underwent colonoscopy within 12 hours after reduction. The control group was composed of 103 children patients with both diarrhea and hematochezia. There was no significant difference in age, sex or weight between the two groups.Colonoscopic findings were recorded in terms of slack, swelling, prolapsus, lymphoid hyperplasia and mucosal lesions in ileocecal valve. Results In patients with intussusceptions, the rates of ileocecal valve slack, swelling including prolapsus, lymphoid hyperplasia and mucosal lesions were 61.3%, 33. 9%, 100. 0% and 31.1%, respectively, which were significantly different with those of the control group (P ＞ 0. 05 ). When further divided intussusceptions patients into groups with age more than 1 yr or less, significant differences were also observed in regarding of these features. Conclusion There is a close relationship between morphological and functional changes in ileocecal valve and intussusceptions in children. Ileocolic intussusceptions in patients younger than 1yr is more likely to be due to slack of ileocecal valve, while that in patients older than 1yr is mainly due to swelling or prolapse of ileocecal valve, represented by ileocecal intussuception.

Objective To discuss the relationship between the expression of secretory Phospholipase A2-Ⅱ A(sPLA2-ⅡA) and the pathogenesis psoriasis vulgaris patients lesions.Methods Using Psoriasis Area Severity Index(PASI),50 psoriasis vulgaris were divided into three groups:mild (n =16),moderate (n =18) and severe group (n =16),and compared to the non-psoriasis control group (n=52).The serum level of sPLA2-ⅡA in psoriasis vulgaris patients and the normal control group were detected using ELISA methods.Using RT-PCR,mRNA expression levels of sPLA2-ⅡA and subtypes were detected.Using western blot,the expression levels of Akt and p-Akt were detected.Results The serum level of sPLA2-ⅡA in the psoriasis lesion's group was significantly higher than that in the healthy control (t=13.62,P＜0.01).The mRNA expression of sPLA2-ⅡA in the lesion of psoriasis was significantly higher than that in health control (t=113.41,P＜0.01).In the other subtypes,the mRNA expression of sPLA2 had no distinctive.Among the three groups (mild group,moderate group and severe group),the difference in serum level and mRNA expression of sPLA2-ⅡA were statistically significant (F =28.12,69.62,P＜0.01).There was statistical significance among three groups (t=3.14,5.14,6.38,all P＜0.01;t=4.77,10.42,10.58,all P＜0.01).The expression of Akt/p-Akt in the psoriasis lesion's group were higher than that in health control (t=17.79,19.04,P＜0.01).Conclusion The expression of sPLA2-ⅡA would be associated with order of severity in lesions of psoriasis vulgaris.The pathway was relate to expression of Akt and p-Akt.
