Hemodialysis monitoring and information management software was used to establish an intelligent electronic system to manage hemodialysis patients' information,with hardware and software moderations.The electronic information management system for hemodialysis functioned steadily since 2008.This system changed not only the existing medical process of the center,but also contributed to safer treatments,more accurate operations of doctor’ s instructions,and better medical information records as well The results indicate that the electronic information management system in hemodialysis centers not only irnproves work efficiency and management quality significantly,but also effectively ensures the safety and caliber of hemodialysis treatment with less manpower costs.

We prepared a polymorphic form of valnemulin hydrogen tartrate (Form I) to overcome the instability and irritating odor of valnemulin hydrochloride that affect its use in the production and application of veterinary drugs. The physicochemical properties of Form I were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis. The results showed the crystal structure and thermal properties of Form I were very different from those of a commercially available form of valnemulin hydrogen tartrate (Form II). Form I and Form II were more stable than valnemulin hydrochloride after storage under irradiation and high humidity conditions, respectively. The solubility of Form I was 2.6 times that of Form II, and Form I was selected for use in pharmaceutical kinetics experiments in vivo. Compared to valnemulin hydrochloride, after oral administration at a dose of 10 mg/kg in pigs, Form I had similar pharmaceutical kinetic behavior but a slightly higher area under the concentration–time curve from time zero to the last measurable concentration. Consequently, Form I should be suitable for the development of simple formulations and be effective in the clinical application of veterinary drugs.

Objective To explore the effects of high phosphate and low calcium on the secretion function and cell proliferation in normal rat parathyroid tissues.Methods The rat parathyroid tissues resected by surgical operation under dissection microscope were incubated in vitro for 5 days and were treated with high phosphate or low calcium medium on the second day and the third day after incubation.The cell apoptosis at different time points was measured by flow cytometry.The levels of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) in the supernatant at different time points were detected by ELISA.The mRNA levels of prepro-PTH and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) were measured by real-time PCR,while the protein levels of PCNA after the 24-hour treatment with high phosphate or low calcium medium were measured by Western blotting.Results Flow cytometric analysis showed that the percentage of normal living cells on the first day and the second day after incubation was significantly higher than that on the third day to the fifth day after incubation in the rat parathyroid tissues (all P < 0.05),and there was no statistical difference among that on the third day to the fifth day after incubation.There was no significant difference in cell survival rates on the first day to the fifth day after incubation (all > 85%) under normal or high phosphate medium.There was no significant difference in the daily iPTH level on the first day to the fifth day after incubation under normal medium.Compared with normal medium,the iPTH level in the supernatant under high phosphate medium increased (P < 0.05),and the expressions of preproPTH mRNA and PCNA in parathyroid tissues were significantly up-regulated (both P < 0.05) after the 24-hour treatment with high phosphate medium.Compared with normal medium,the iPTH level in the supernatant under low calcium medium increased (P < 0.05),and the expression of preproPTH mRNA in parathyroid tissues was significantly up-regulated after the 24-hour treatment with low calcium medium (P < 0.05).Conclusions It is feasible to incubate the parathyroid issues from rats in vitro,and the best incubation time should be within 2 days.Low calcium and high phosphate stimulation could increase the synthesis and secretion of PTH,while high phosphate can also promote the cell proliferation,which is an important factor for the regulation of parathyroid function in physiological state.
