Oregon sued a certain American well-known supplements’agency contained illegal ingredients on Oct.22, 2015. The event presented that FDA showed the problem of the management issues on the supplement ingredients. This event also triggered the discussions about the role of supervisation and law enforcement of FDA and State government. This paper aimed to systematically analyze the related problems in such issue and tried to offer suggestion of food regulation and ingredient management to the researchers and administrators in China.

OBJECTIVETo establish a ion chromatography method for determination of phosphorus oxychloride in the air of workplace.

METHODThe phosphorus oxychloride in the air of workplace was collected by absorb liquid and turned into hydrochloric acid, then separated in column and detected with conductivity detector, qualified by elution time and quantified by peak height or peak area.

RESULTSThe linear range of phosphorus oxychloride in air of workplace was 0.72 ∼ 5.76 µg/ml with its correlation coefficient 0.9999. The detecting limit of the method was 0.12 µg/ml. The smallest detecting concentration of the method was 0.08 mg/m(3) for 15 L sampling air. Relative standard deviation was 3.3% ∼ 6.2% and the recovery was 97.8% ∼ 103.8%. The sample could be resaved at room temperature at least for seven days.

CONCLUSIONThe indicators of the method correspond GBZ/T 210.4-2008«Guide for establishing occupational health standards-Part 4: Determination methods of air chemicals in workplace». It is a good method to determine phosphorus oxychloride in the air of workplace.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the uncertainty of measurement result of urinary fluoride and to provide quality assurance for determinations.

METHODThe investigation was conducted, according with principles and methods for uncertainty evaluation.

RESULTSThe uncertainty of the combined standard of present method was 2.86 %. For the sample containing 4.47 mg/L urinary fluoride, the expanded uncertainty was 0.26 mg/L.

CONCLUSIONThe uncertainty of the present method was mainly from the sample repeatability, the preparation of standard solution, the linearity of the calibration curve and instruments and so on.

Innovative Experiment Competition of Preventive Medicine is a significant constitution of Guangdong Undergraduate Technique Competition of Preventive Medicine. Without the constriction of majors, students participate in group with 3 people, design their own experiments around the hot spots and practical problems in public health area and are awarded according to the grades of the experiment design and thesis defence. The most topics in the first and the second competitions are about environmental hygiene and occupational hygiene, and the infectious diseases are attracting increasing attention. More and more topics combine the method of experiment with investigation. Some tactics are also suggested that innovation, view of general population, autonomy and investigation should be included in topic selection for this contest.

Objective To research the incidence and etiological factors of intraocular pressure(IOP)elevation in patients in early and late postop?erative stages after vitrectomy. Methods The clinical data of 235 cases(306 eyes)who underwent vitrectomy in our hospital were respectively ana?lyzed. IOP was measured before operation,in the early postoperative stage(within 2 weeks)and in the late postoperative stage(6 months after opera?tion or longer)by non?contact tonometer. Risk factors related with ocular hypertension happened in the early and late postoperative stages were statis?tically analyzed. Results The mean average IOP before operation was 15.3 ± 4.1 mmHg for the 306 eyes. Within the follow?up period of 6?20 months(mean,14.3 months),ocular hypertension occurred in 42 eyes[incidence,13.7%;mean,31.9 ± 6.0 mmHg]in the early postoperative stage and in 12 eyes[incidence,3.9%;mean,32.1 ± 5.7 mmHg]in the late postoperative stage. Logistic regression analysis revealed that lensecto?my,scleral buckling,cyclophotocoagulation,inert gas filling,silicone oil tamponade and diabetic retinopathy were the independent risk factors of oc?ular hypertension in early postoperative stage after vitrectomy,while lensectomy,scleral buckling,pan retinal photocoagulation,silicone oil tampon?ade,diabetic retinopathy and carotid artery stenosis were the independent risk factors of ocular hypertension in late postoperative stage after vitrecto?my. In addition,cyclophotocoagulation was a protective factor of IOP in the late postoperative stage. Conclusion The risk factors of ocular hyperten?sion after vitrectomy include the intraocular gapfiller,the mode of combined operation,disease type and carotid artery stenosis. IOP elevation that happens in the late postoperative stage is more harmful. Ocular hypertension in the late postoperative stage is not associated with that in the early stage.

OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical effect of plantar medial perforator artery based reverse island medial dorsal pedal neurocutaneous vascular flaps.

METHODS12 cases with soft tissue defects of forefeet were treated by plantar medial perforator artery based reverse island medial dorsal pedal neurocutaneous vascular flaps. The flap size ranged from 3.0 cm x 3.5 cm to 5.5 cm x 8.5 cm.

RESULTAll flaps survived completely. The patients were followed up for 6 - 24 months. The texture and flexibility of the flaps were normal with no ulcer. The sensation improved with the two-point discrimination of 7 - 10 mm. The cosmetic and functional results were satisfactory. The wounds at donor site healed primarily.

CONCLUSIONSThe flaps have expanded size for large defects with good flexibility, thickness and texture. It is easily performed with less morbidity to main artery.

OBJECTIVETo establish a gas chromatographic method for detecting 2-butoxy ethanol in the air of workplaces.

METHODSAfter the air samples were collected with activated carbon tubes and desorbed with methylene chloride/methanol, the target toxicant was separated with FFAP capillary columns and detected with flame ionization detector, qualified by retention time and quantified by peak area.

RESULTSThe linear range of 2-butoxy ethanol in air of workplace was 56.3 ∼ 901.0 µg/ml, the correlation coefficient was 09999. The limit of detection was 2.0 µg/ml. The limit of quantity was 5.0 µg/ml. The minimal detecting concentration was 0.27 mg/m(3) in the condition of 7.5L sampling volume and 1ml desorbed volume. Relative standard deviation was 3.04% ∼ 7.93% and the recovery was 92.7% ∼ 95.5%.

CONCLUSIONIn present study the detecting method with high sensitivity, precision and accuracy can be used to determine 2-butoxy ethanol in the air of workplaces.

AIM:To explore the potentially beneficial clinical effects of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) combined with photocoagulation for diabetic retinopathy(DR).METHODS:Chinese patients with DR were divided into two groups. A joint treatment group received both the TCM ziyinliangxuesanyutang and photocoagulation, while a control group received only photocoagulation laser treatment. Visual acuity tests, visual field retinal sensitivity tests, and fundus fluorescein angiography (to measure neovascular regression) were performed. Vision was compared between the two groups 1 month, 6, and 12 months after treatment.RESULTS:Twelve months after treatment, the recovery of visual acuity (62.3% vs 43.1%, P=0.037) and retinal sensitivity \[17.0±3.7 decibels (dB) vs 14.9±3.7dB, P=0.002\] as well as neovascular regression (67.2% vs 48.3%, P=0.036) in the joint treatment group were all significantly greater than that of the control group.CONCLUSION:Compared with laser treatment alone, the joint application of TCM and photocoagulation is shown to be more effective than DR treatment method.
