Objective To assess the value and clinical applicability of non-treponemal antigen serologic test and Treponema pallidum antigen serologic test in the diagnosis of congenital syphilis. Methods Totally,7800 newborns were collected from the out-patient and in-patient department. Toluidine red unheated serum test (TRUST) was conducted to quantitatively detect non-treponemal antibodies and Treponema pallidum particle agglutination assay (TPPA) to qualitatively detect specific treponemal antibodies in these subjects. The results of first serology test for syphilis were assessed for neonates with confirmed congenital syphilis. The sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of congenital syphilis were compared between TPPA and TRUST.Results Of the 7800 newborns undergoing syphilis serology testa, 60 were positive for TPPA and TRUST,including 15 cases of congenital syphilis, 47 were positive for TPPA but negative for TRUST, including 5 cases of congenital syphilis. The sensitivity and specificity were 75% (5/20) and 99.41% (7734/7780) respectively for TRUST in the diagnosis of congenital syphilis, 100% (20/20) and 98.88% (7693/7780) respectively for TPPA. Conclusion TPPA seems more applicable than TRUST to the screening for congenital syphilis.

The pharmacokinetics and tissue distributions of the novel paclitaxel microemulsion based on the L-OH lipid complex made in our laboratory were studied in this article with the commercial paclitaxel injection in cremophor as reference preparation by injected intravenously with single dose of 5 mg x kg(-1) in rats. LC-MS/MS method was used to determine the drug concentration in plasma and calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters. [3H]-paclitaxel was used to reveal the tissue distributions of different organs in 0.5 h, 3 h, 24 h and 120 h. The results indicated that the AUC of the emulsion group descended to 42.55%, with the CLz and Vz increased by 2.27 times and 3.81 times respectively. Tissue distribution results revealed that the emulsion showed a significantly increase in liver and spleen with a peak concentration up to 5 times; a slightly increase was observed in lung with no statistical differences; a significantly decrease in heart, kidney, gastrointestinal tract, bone marrow, aorta, thymus, pancreas, fat, muscle, skin, seminal vesicle, reproductive organs and brain with a drop of 40%-80%. These results indicated that paclitaxel microemulsion based on L-OH lipid complexes can remarkably reduced the blood exposure, accelerate plasma clearance rate and increase distribution volume. The fact that paclitaxel microemulsion tended to be uptake by reticuloendothelial system (RES) contributed to the target in liver, spleen and lung, and help to reduce the toxicity in blood, heart, kidney and gastrointestinal tract.

Objective: To observe the effects of needles with different diameters on the gastrointestinal function in mice. Methods: Eighteen Kunming mice were randomly divided into group of 0.25 mm needle, group of 0.35 mm needle, and control group. The acupoint of Zusanli (ST 36) was needled once a day for 5 days. The effects of needles with different diameters were observed by measuring the distance of the carbon moved in the intestine. Results: The distance of the carbon moved in the intestine was longer in the acupuncture group than in the control group (P<0.05), and it was longer in the group of 0.35 mm needle than in the group of 0.30 mm needle, there was no significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture treatment can enhance the peristalsis function of stomach and intestine in mice. The diameter of needle has no effect on the gastrointestinal function.

Objective To examine the influence of LEV adjunctive treatment on cognitive function and life quality in RE school-age children. Methods Fifty-five cases of RE children were selected from our hospital from June 2013 to December 2015. Based on original treatment all children were added with LEV treatment for 16 weeks. The initial dose was 8~10 mg/(kg·d),and gradually increased to 50 mg/(kg·d). maintenance dose was 30 mg/(kg·d). Adverse drug reac?tions were recorded and clinical efficacies were determined after treatment. Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children re?vised in China (WISC-CR) and quality of life in children with epilepsy (QOLCE) was used to evaluate children's cogni?tive function and children's life quality, respectvely. Results Average epilepsy attack frequencies after treatment (3.8± 1.3 vs. 6.6±2.3) times/month decreased significantly compared with before treatment (P<0.05). Clinical control ratio, ex?cellent ratio, effective ratio and ineffective ratio after treatment were 9.1%, 36.4%, 43.6%, 36.4%respectively and total effective ratio was 89.1%. The arithmetic score (10.9 ± 2.6 vs. 9.2 ± 2.1) and mapping score (15.1 ± 3.9 vs. 13.8 ± 3.3) in WISC- CR evaluation increased significantly (P<0.05). Life quality score (65.7 ± 5.7 vs. 62.8 ± 4.9) , cognitive function score (60.0 ± 5.7 vs. 57.4 ± 6.2) and social function score (65.0 ± 6.3 vs. 62.5 ± 5.5) after treatment in QOLCE evaluation in?creased significantly (P<0.05). During medication, the incidences of dizziness, fatigue, lethargy, irritability, euphoria and transient aminotransferase elevation were 12.7%, 9.1%, 20.0%, 9.1%, 3.6%and 3.6%respectively. Sixteen week medica?tion retention rate was 96.4%. Conclusion LEV adjunctive treatment can significantly reduce epilepsy attacks and im?prove cognitive function and life quality in RE children, but attention should be paid to LEV's influence on mental behavior.
