Objective To establish the quality standard of Shilong Qingxue Effervescent Granules. Method Rhizoma curcuma, flos sophorae, cornus officinalis and gamdir vine in Shilong Qingxue Effervescent Granules were identified by TLC. The content of gastrodin in Shilong Qingxue Effervescent Granules was determined by HPLC. Results The TLC spots were highly clear without the interference of negative samples and were reproductive. A good linear for gastrodin was in the range of 14～70 ?g/mL (r=0.999 9). The average recovery was 97.33% (RSD=0.63%). Conclusion This method is simple, rapid and accurate, and can be used for the quality control of Shilong Qingxue Effervescent Granules.

Hepatitis virus NAT reagents are now widely used clinically. However, the qulity of domestic and foreign NAT reagents varies dramatically. The main reasons for these differences including the manufacture technique, test principle and assay procedure were discussed in this paper and current status of the quality control of the NAT reagents were also described. Finally, it was pointed out that strengthening public supervision and laboratory internal control are very important for the quality improvement of the domestic reagents.

Objective To compare the incidence of C5 nerve root palsy after laminoplasty and laminectomy with internal fixation for treating multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy (MCSM).Methods From January 2008 to August 2012,98 patients with MCSM were treated with laminoplasty (47 patients,group A) or laminectomy (51 patients,group B) with internal fixation.All the patients were followed up for 13-56(26.5 ± 7.9) months.In both groups,Cobb's method was applied to measure cervical lordotic angle,and Ishihara's method was conducted to measure cervical curvature index (CCI) before and after operation.The incidence of C5 nerveroot palsy was recorded and compared.Results The incidence of C5 nerve root palsy in group A was 2.1％ (1/47),while 21.6 ％ (11/51) in group B (x2 =5.430,P ＜ 0.05).The JOA scores in group A and group B before and after operation and improvement rate of JOA scores had no significant difference (P＞ 0.05).The cervical lordotic angle and CCI in group A and group B before and after operation had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The improvement rate of CCI between two groups had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).All of 11 patients with C5 nerve root palsy were group B 1,and other 40 patients were group B2.The improvement rate of CCI in group B1 was significantly higher than that in group B2 [(38.7 ± 18.3)％ vs.(22.1 ± 12.1)％](t =1.772,P＜ 0.05).Conclusions Compared with laminoplasty,laminectomy with internal fixation has a higher incidence of C5 nerve root palsy.The C5 nerve root palsy may be associated with postoperative increase of cervical lordosis angle.Moreover,tethering of the C5 root may he one of its important pathomechanisms.

Objective To evaluate the function of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and other clinical indexes to forcast ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Method Collecting the serum and follicular fluid (FF) of 42 cases in the in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) cycles and then analysis the relationship of the clinical and detected indexes between the OHSS (10 cases) and the non-OHSS (32 cases). Results The concentration of VEGF in FF?E 2 on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) injection, basal luteinizing hormone (LH) and the number of ovum retried much higher in the OHSS than in the non-OHSS. Conclusions The concentration of VEGF in FF of OHSS cases is higher than that of controls, supporting the role of VEGF as a mediator of OHSS. Therefore VEGF in FF is a forcast index of OHSS.

Objective: To investigate the effect of F.nucleatum(Fn) and P. gingivalis(Pg) on soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sICAM-1) in peri-implant sulcular fluid(PISF).Methods: PCR was used to detect microorganism samples from PISF. According to detection of Fn and Pg, 51 titanium implants in 32 partly edentulous patients were divided into 3 groups. Clinical parameters included PD, mPLI and sICAM-1. Periopaper strips were used to collect PISF and an ELISA technique was applied to measure the levels of sICAM-1. Results: PD was significantly greater in the patients with Pg and/or Fn than that in those without Pg or Fn (P

Objective: To evaluated the granules stabilities in four conditions by taking the change of Baricalin content and granules surface color as stability test markers. Methods: The content of baicalin was determined by dual wave length iso absortion method and the granules surface color was determined by the diffuse reflectrance spectroscopy. ① The granules were tested in a simulated summer environment (30 ?C , RH92.5%, 1month) and in a high intensity light condition (3000LX, 10dyas). ② The influence of humidity on the stability of the granules was investigated. ③ The expiry date of the granules was predicted by the mutivariate linear regression analysis and compared with the result of the classical constant temperature method. ④ The influences of temperature and humidity on the granules stability were etudied by orthogonal test. Results: ① There was hardly any change in baicalin content of samples in a simulated summer environment and in a high intensity light condition. ② The results showed that the decrease of baicalin content and charge of granules color were obvious when the relative humidity of environment was high and the granules color was more easily influenced by the humidity. ③ The expiry date was about 2.87 years. ④ The results indicated that both temperature and humidity had effects on the change of baicalin content. Conclusion: We tried to estimate the stability of the granules by two indexes. The results showed that Qingrejedu granules was stable in different conditions. It satisfied the stability requirements of solid dosage form.

AIM:To retrospectively analyze the lipid metabolism disturbance and subacute inflammation within the microenvironment of follicular fluid between Chinese polycystic ovarian syndrome ( PCOS ) patients and the controls . METHODS:Serum lipid indexes , steroid hormone levels , and inflammatory cell counts were analyzed .The inflammatory cytokine and apolipoprotein levels were detected in the serum and follicular fluid .The mRNA expression of apolipoproteins and cytokines in the granulose cells was determined by real-time PCR.RESULTS: PCOS patients showed typical obesity accompanied with hyperlipidemia and hyperandrogenemia .Significantly elevated inflammatory cell number and cytokine lev-els were detected in both serum and follicular fluid .The mRNA expression levels of the inflammatory cytokines and apoli-poproteins in the granulose cells from the PCOS patients were higher than those from the controls .CONCLUSION:Elevat-ed apolipoproteins reflect systematic hyperlipidemia in the follicular fluid .Serum lipids and cytokines penetrate follicle-ser-um barrier and get into follicle fluid .Meanwhile , increased intake of apolipoproteins or elevated synthesis of cytokines ( IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α) by granulose cells could also be crucial to stabilize microenvironment of follicular fluid .Oocyte and subsequent embryos are sensitive to the originaal follicular environment .The lipid metabolism disturbance , inflammatory cell infiltration and hyperandrogenemia may possibly disturb oocyte developmental potential .
