ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and influence factors of a new silver salt method for determination of arsenic in drinking water. Methods Arsenic was determined at different reaction temperature,acidity, specification and addition of zinc granular, fill weight of lead acetate cotton, and the effect of these factors on assay results was observed. Arsenic in drinking water was determined in accordance with standard test methods (GB/T 5750.6) of the new silver method. Results The recoveries of the arsenic were 75.3％ - 93.6％(F =9.21,P ＜ 0.01 ) with reaction temperature at 10 - 30 ℃, and the best reaction temperature was 25 ℃. The recoveries of the arsenic ranged from 80.3％ - 91.6％(F =4.67, P＜ 0.05) when sulfuric acid was 3.0 - 6.0 ml and the best value was 5.0 ml. The recoveries of the honeycomb structural zinc granular(diameter 0.2 - 0.3, 0.3 - 0.4 mm) and button zinc granular were 87.2％, 90.7％ and 83.0％, respectively; the best specification was 0.3 - 0.4 mm. The recoveries of zinc granular weight(3 - 5 g ) were 74.6％ - 91.7％, respectively; the best was 5 g. The recoveries ranged from 79.6％ - 91.3％ with fill weight of lead acetate cotton at 25 - 100 mg, the best fill weight was 50 mg.The recoveries of the arsenic were 90.7％, 92.5％, 81.5％ and 74.2％ with lead acetate cotton length at 0.5 - 2.0 cm,and the best loose-tight degree was 1.0 cm. The stability time of arsine solution was 5.0, 4.0, 2.5 h with corresponding temperature at 20, 25, 30 ℃, respectively. ConclusionsIn order to ensure precision and accuracy of the measurement, it is necessary to control reaction temperature, acidity, specification and addition of zinc granular free from arsenic, fill weight of lead acetate cotton and loose-tight degree in the reaction system.

Incidence of acute kidney injury ( AKI ) is increasing rapidly to epidemic proportions . Development of AKI is associated with increased morbidity , mortality and hospitalization costs .Currently available diagnostic tools are mostly insensitive for early diagnosis of AKI .Finding an early, reliable, easily reproducible , economical and accurate biomarker for AKI is a top research priority .In recent years , many serum and urinary proteins have been investigated as possible early markers of AKI .

The volatile oil is the main component in the leaves of Perilla frutescens. According to the main types of monoterpenoids or aromatic compounds, it can be divided into different chemotypes and the main chemotypes of Chinese producing Perilla are PA type (mainly containing Perilla aldehyde and limonene), PK type (mainly containing perillaketone) and PP type (subdivided as PP-a type, with apiole as its main component; PP-m type, with myristicin as its main component; PP-e type, with elemicin as main component; PP-as type, with asarone as main component). Based on the biosynthetic pathways analysis, we also found that the formation of the particular chemotype is usually controlled by a single gene or a few genes, and different types have different pharmacological effects. In this paper, the classification under the species P. frutescens, main chemotypes of the volatile oil, and their biogenesis and regulation, pharmacological effect and influence factors are summarized and reviewed.

Objective To investigate the status and influential factors of mental health of Pakistani and Bangladeshi peacekeeping forces in Liberia.Methods By random sampling,300peacekeeping officers and soldiers dispatched from Pakistan and Bangladesh(150 each)in Liberia were investigated with Chinese Military Mental Health Scale(CMMHS),Military Mental Maladjustment Scale(MMMS) and Social Support Rating Scale(SSRS),and they were carried out for two times on the 7th day and the 120th day after arrival in peacekeeping mission area.Results The total score and each factor score of CMMHS(except for obsessive-compulsive,anxiety and interpersonal sensitivity)and the total score of MMMS of the peacekeepers at the 7th day after their arrival in mission area were significantly higher than those at the 120th day(P

17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase deficiency (17OHD) is a rare cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia.The patient predominantly presents with low-renin hypertension,hypokalemia,lack of secondary sexual development,and in women with primary amenorrhea,in male with pseudohermaphroditism.We herewith analyse the clinical features of a case of 17OHD diagnosed by gene sequencing.And the etiology,clinical manifestations,genetic features,diagnosis and treatment for 17OHD were reviewed.

Objective To study the clinic diagnostic value of transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound(TVCDU)in fallopian tube interstitial pregnancy.Methods US 2D images,blood distribution and frequency spectrum of 28cases with fallopian tube interstitial pregnancy proved by pathology were analyzed retrospectively.Results Before the operation,17 cases of fallopian tube interstitial pregnancy were diagnosed by US(17/28,61%),the signs included asymmetrical enlargement uterus,bulging uterine angle on one site,pregnancy sac or mass in the bulging uterine angle,the mass was discontinuance with the endometrium,which enveloped thin or thick muscle.The fallopian tube interstitial pregnancy could be divided into three types on US: blastula type(N=7),inhomogeneous mass type(N=16) and rupture type(N=5).Conclusion TVCDU is of important clinic value in the early diagnosis and differential diagnosis of fallopian tube interstitial pregnancy.

Objective To investigate the effects of Xuebijing injection on the production of ICAM-1 and its counterreceptor(LFA-1)in ANP of rats at different time points.Methods ANP was induced by multiple points in- jection of 5% chenodeoxycholic acid into the pancreas,followed by ligation of pancreatic duct.Expressions of ICAM- 1 at different time points were assessed by immunohistochemistry method,the expressions of LAF-1 on neutrophils at different time points were detected by flow cytometer.The effect of Xuebijing injection was also evaluated by de- tecting the output of ascitic fluid,amylase level and histological changes in pancreas and lungs.Results The expres- sions of ICAM-1 in pancreas and lung of Xuebijing injection group decreased significantly than those in ANP group at most time points during the research period(P
