[Objective] To establish a determination method for isolated gastrointestinal intra-cavity perfusion pressure and to explore its application in pharmacological experiment. [Methods] Determination method for isolated gastrointestinal intra-cavity perfusion pressure was established according to motility of the isolated rat gastric muscle strip and water-sac perfusion manometry and ileum peristalsis of Guinea pigs. Intra-cavity pressure of isolated gastrointestinal canal of rat and guinea pig was observed. [Results] Gastric intra-cavity pressure was markedly increased as added with various doses of acetylcholine (1.25, 2.5, 3.25, 5, 6.25 and 7.5 ?g/mL respectively) in nutrient solution. The ileum intra-cavity pressure was also increased as added with various doses of histamine (0.125, 0.25, and 0.5 ?g/mL respectively) . The effects were in a dose-effect manner and the differences were significant as compared with distilled water group ( P

HMGR and DXR are key enzymes of terpenoids biosynthesis pathway. This study was aimed to discuss the effects of overexpression of HMGR and DXR from A momum villosum Lour. on the biosynthesis of terpenoids in transgenic tobacco. The real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to analyze the expression level of AvHMGR and AvDXR. Then, enzyme activities of HMGR and DXR were determined by spectrometer using the substrate-specific method. Different terpenoids were detected by GC-MS. The results showed that individual overex-pression of HMGR/DXR can inhibit the enzyme activities of HMGR and DXR but promote the biosynthesis of men-thene, neophytediene, cembrenene and sterol. The co-overexpression of HMGR and DXR had different enzyme activ-ities and can promote the biosynthesis of sterol and phytol, but inhibit the biosynthesis of neophytadiene. It was con-cluded that the overexpression of HMGR and DXR had diverse effects when regulating the biosynthesis of different terpenoids. This study provided the basis for using A vHMGR and A vDXR to regulate the metabolism of terpenoids.

[ Objective] To compare the protective mechanism of Zuojin Pill (Rhizoma Coptidis: Fructus Evodiae = 6:1) and Fan Zuojin Pill (Rhizoma Coptidis: Fructus Evodiae = 1: 6) on gastric secretion and gastric mucosal barrier. [Methods] Pylorus - ligated rat model was applied. Rats were divided into normal saline group, Zuojin Pill groups (1.4 g/kg and 2.8 g/kg) and Fan Zuojin Pill groups (1.4g/kg and 2.8g/kg) and then the drugs were given by duodenal feeding. Gastric secretion and gastric mucus synthesis were examined. [Results] Zuojin Pill and Fan Zuojin Pill (1.4 g/kg and 2.8 g/kg) both inhibited gastric secretion and decreased total acid output and pepsin activity in a dose- effect manner. Zuojin Pill and Fan Zuojin Pill also increased the content of gastric adherent mucus (GAM) and tended to elevate the mucus level in gastric juice. [Conclusion] The preventive mechanism of Zuojin Pill and Fan Zuojin Pill on gastric mucosa may be related to the regulation of gastric secretion and gastric mucus synthesis.

Objective:To assess the impact of zero makeup policy for drug and medical supplies on hospitals. Methods:Descrip-tive statistics and comparative analysis were used to analyze the related indicators, profit and loss calculation and the cost of patients from April 2014 to March 2017.Results:After the policy was implemented, the number of outpatients and the number of outpatients choosing general doctors decreased. The average length of hospitalization was 8.88 days, and the proportion of drug consumption was 34.10%. The number of outpatients choosing medical experts, the number of inpatients and the proportion of surgical treatment in-creased. Although the policy benefited patients,the average medical expenditure still increased. There was policy loss in the hospital. Conclusion:The reform promotes the implementation of hierarchical medical system, optimizes the hospital income structure and re-duces drug proportion significantly,which achieves the original intentions of the policy to some extent.

Objective:To establish a method for determination of iodine in salt by arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry.Methods:The content of iodine in salt was detected by arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry with an automatic iodine analyzer. The standard curve linearity, detection limit, precision and accuracy of the method were evaluated. The iodine content of 20 edible salt samples was detected by the newly established method and direct titration, and the results were compared.Results:In the range of 0 - 150 μg/L standard curve, the correlation coefficient ( r) = - 0.999 9, and the detection limit was 1.4 mg/kg. The average iodine contents of iodine composition analysis standard materials GBW10006z and GBW10007z were 12.2 and 22.8 mg/kg ( n = 6), respectively, which were all within the given standard value ranges, and the relative standard deviations ( RSD) were 2.04% and 2.33%, respectively. Iodine composition analysis standard materials GBW10006b, GBW10007b, GBW10006v, GBW10007v, GBW10006z and GBW10007z measurement results (12.0, 24.6, 12.6, 22.8, 12.3, 23.2 mg/kg, n = 2) were all within the given standard value ranges, with good quality control. The iodine content of 20 edible salt samples was detected by arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry and direct titration, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( t = 1.99, P = 0.060). Conclusion:Arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry has the characteristics of good linear relationship, low detection limit, good precision and high accuracy in determination of salt iodine content, which is suitable for popularization and application.

Objective:
To investigate the reversibility of ischemic core defined by CT perfusion imaging in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis within different time windows and influencing factors.
Methods:
The data of AIS patients who received intravenous thrombolysis in the Department of Neurology of Lishui People′s Hospital from May 2016 to December 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. All patients had finished multi-model CT imaging before thrombolysis and multi-model MRI examination 24-48 hours after thrombolysis. The baseline ischemic core volume (hypoperfusion area with relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF)<30%) was quantitatively assessed based on CT perfusion images using MIStar software, and the final ischemic core volume was assessed based on diffusion weighted imaging acquired 24-48 hours after thrombolysis. The reversibility of ischemic core was defined as baseline ischemic core volume-the final infarct volume ≥5 ml. Then the clinical and imaging features of the patients between reversible group and irreversible group were compared, and the predictors of ischemic core reversibility were analyzed by binary Logistic regression analysis.
Results:
Finally, 97 patients were enrolled in the present study, of which 64 (66%) patients achieved successful recanalization, 51 (53%) patients with reversible baseline ischemic core. For patients with recanalization, the incidence of reversibility was 76% (26/34), 71% (17/24), 2/5 and 0 (0/1) in patients with time window from onset to thrombolysis (ONT) <3.0 h, 3.0-4.5 h, 4.6-6.0 h, and >6.0 h, respectively. In the non-recanalization group, six patients were also showed with ischemic core reversibility, including 4 (4/12) in the ONT<3.0 h group and 2 (2/12) in the ONT 3.0-4.5 h group. It was found that the reversible volume was positively correlated with baseline ischemic core volume (
