Objective To develop a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) screen-ing method for 45 poisonous alkaloids in blood. Methods Identification was based on the compound’s retention time and two precursor-to-production transitions. The method involved a liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) followed by LC-MS/MS with multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM). When 1 mL of blood was ex-tracted with diethyl ether at pH=9.2 with SKF525A as the internal standard, the target compounds were an-alyzed with LC-MS/MS in the positive ionization mode. Results The target alkaloids had good linearity (r>0.995 1), both the intra-day precision and inter-day precision being less than 14.77%. The limits of detection ranged from 0.05 to 25 ng/mL in blood. Conclusion The method is selective and sensitive in detecting poisonous alkaloids with a total running time of 12 minutes; therefore it was successfully ap-plied to some actual cases of suspected alkaloids poisoning.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of levodopa combined comprehensive therapy on the children with ametropic amblyopia.Methods:One hundred three patients (180 eyes) with ametropic amblyopia admitted into our hospital from April 2013 to March 2016 were randomly divided into the control group and the study group.Fifty-two patients (90 eyes) in the control group were treated with comprehensive therapy,and fifty-one patients (90 eyes) in study group were treated with levodopa combined comprehensive therapy.After six months of treatment,the treatment efficacy,pattern visual evoked potential (P-VEP),visual sensitivity,and visual function of patients were observed and compared between the two groups,and the adverse reaction were recorded and compared.Results:At six months after treatment,the effective rate of study group was 90.00％,which was significantly higher than that of control group (68.89％,P＜0.05).The wave amplitude ofP-VEP Pl00 of both groups showed a remarkable increase,which was much higher in the study group (P＜0.05);the incubation period in both groups were obviously decreased,while they were markedly lower in the study group (P＜0.05).The visual acuity under 100％,25％,10％ and 5％ of spatial frequency were conspicuously higher than those of control group (P＜0.05).And correction convergence range,and correction separation range in study group were much higher than those of control group,and corrected near stereo vision was markedly lower than that of control group (P＜0.05).Additionally,no significant difference was found in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion:Levodopa combined comprehensive therapy had a good ability of improving function of visual central neurons,visual acuity and binocular stereo vision functions.

OBJECTIVETo study operative effects for the treatment of multiple ligament injuries of knee joints.

METHODSFrom 2008 to 2013, 26 patients (17 males and 9 females) with multiple ligament injuries of knee joints were treated surgically. The average age was 40.7 years old, ranging from 29 to 55 years old. All the patients were treated with arthroscopic reconstruction of cruiate ligament with autogenous or allogeneic hamstrings and tendon, and at the same time received repair of medial collateral ligament and lateral collateral ligament, as well as the treatment of exterior and interior complex injuries. Nine patients received second stage operation after the initial operation for mistake or missed diagnosis, and other patients were treated at the first stage. The Lysholm scoring system was used to evaluate function and stability of knee joints before and after operation.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up for an average duration of 1.6 years (ranged, 0.8 to 3.2 years). The mean awaiting time for operation was 1.2 months. The Lysholm score was improved from preoperative 42.5 +/- 4.5 (ranged, 33 to 48) to the latest follow-up 78.1 +/- 3.9 (ranged, 57 to 95). The function of knee joint was improved obviously in the arthroscopic reconstruction patients, with joint range of motion exceeding 900 and with Varus & Valgus tests near to normal. All the patients had negative findings in the Lachman test at 70 degrees of flexion.

CONCLUSIONArthroscopic reconstruction should be the first choice in treating multiple ligament injuries of knee joints. If the anterior and posterior cruciate ligament injuries can't be treated simultaneously, the posterior cruciate ligament injuries should be treated preferentially at the first stage and the anterior cruciate ligament injuries should be treated at the second stage. The diagnosis of posterior cruciate ligament is easy to be missed.

Sperm-mediated gene transfer (SMGT) is one of the most methods in the transgenic animal research and the efficiency of spermatozoa binding and internalization exogenous DNA after sperm/DNA co-culture is important to a successful SMGT.In this study,the influencing factors of exogenous DNA uptake by spermatozoa were detected using DIG labeled EGFP as exogenous gene.The results demonstrated that porcine spermatozoa could spontaneously take up exogenous DNA which mainly binding occurs on the sub-acrosomal and nuclei region of the sperm head.The rate of spermatozoa binding exogenous DNA increased with the extending action of time.At 37℃ and 39℃,the rate of spermatozoa uptake exogenous DNA would not increase after 60 min incubation,and the similar result was observed on 90 min at 17℃.Binding rates and internalization rates of washed ejaculated sperm cells from the 15 boars varied between 6.57%-35.81% and 2.990%-24.66%,respectively.The binding rate and intemalization rate were mostly inhibited by seminal plasma.The binding rates were significantly increased by liposome and DMSO,respectively.Dead-spermatozoa could bind exogenous DNA,the intermalization process could not be completed.Furthermore,the highest binding rate was found in membrane broken spermatozoa as a result of freeze-thawing and this was independent of the sperm donors.

One hundred children aged 8-10 years and 100 adults aged 18-45 from their families in three townships Baoshan,Mingcheng,and Yantongshan of Panshi city,Jilin province were selected in April 2009. In addition,50 pregnant or lactating women,and their 50 infants aged 0-2 years were selected.The median level of iodine in salt at household was 30.2 mg/kg and that of drinking water was 2.8 μg/L.The median levels of urine iodine in school age chidren ( 196.5 μg/L),during pregnancy( 198.5 μag/L),lactation( 224.9 μg/L),and in infants (209.0 μg/L) all were optimal according to World Health Organization criteria.Only the median urine iodine in adults ( 269.0 μg/L) was more than adequate.The prevalence of goiter evaluated by B-ultrasound was 1.8％ in 8-10year-old children.The incidences of various thyroid dysfunctions were low in these residents,such as subclinical hyperthyroidism ( 2.1％ ),subclinical hypothyroidism ( 1.5％ ),and hyperthyroidism ( 1.2％ ). Subclinical hypothyroidism occurred mostly in adults (2.7％),pregnant women ( 1.7％ ),and lactating women ( 1.8％ ) ; and subclinical hyperthyroidism occurred mostly in 8-10 years old school chidren (4.5％) and lactating women (3.6％).These results show that the current iodized salt content has no harmful effect on thyroid function of rural residents in Jilin province.
