Objective To establish a quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker (QAMS) for determination of four components (adenosine, uridine, guanosine, (R, S)-goitrin) in Isatidis Radix granules.Method The QAMS for Isatidis Radix granules was established and validated and adenosine was selected as the internal reference substance.The relative correction factor (RCF) of other three components were calculated.The contents of four components were determined by both external standard method and QAMS.The QAMS method was validated through comparison of the results obtained by the two different methods.Results The RCFs of uridine, guanosine and (R, S)-goitrin all showed good reproducibility within certain ranges.For Isatidis Radix granules, uridine, guanosine and (R, S)-goitrin, there was no significant difference between the quantitative results of the two methods.Conclusions The QAMS method is simple, feasible and credible to be used for comprehensive quality control of Isatidis Radix granules.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the stress distribution in dentin of the maxillary central incisor restored with post-core which is related to different shapes and materials.

METHODSCT scan, digital-image processing and Unigraphics (UG) software were applied to construct the three-dimensional finite element models of maxillary central incisor restored with cone or column post-core. Based on this model, stress distribution of Von Mises in dentin with three different materials(polyethylene fiber resin, carbon fiber and zirconia) were analyzed respectively. Static loading(100N) was used on the lingual boundary line between upper-one-third and middle-one-third of maxillary central incisor, the direction of the loading was 45 degrees to the tooth long axis.

RESULTSIn posts made of zirconia and restored with column post, the stress distribution in dentin was higher than with cone post (P<0.05). In posts made of polyethylene fiber resin or carbon fiber, there was no significant difference between the two post shapes (P>0.05). The elastic modulus of post-core materials affected the stress distribution, and the higher the elastic modulus was, the higher the stress concentrated.

CONCLUSIONCone post excels column post in higher elastic modulus materials. Using the lower elastic modulus materials possibly can avail to the stress distribution and prevent the root breakage. During the root canal preparation, the dentin around the root neck should be conserved as more as possible, especially the dentin in the labial side.

Purpose To compare pharmacokineics of puerarin and crude extract in rats.Methods Rats received 500 mg/kg puerarin and puerarin crude extract by oral administration respectively.Hydroxybenzoic acid was selected as internal standard and the plasma concentration of the puerarin and crude extract was analyzed by HPLC.The pharmacokinetics parameters were calculated with DAS2.0.Results The pharmacokinetics of puerarin and puerarin crude extract was both best fitted with two-compartment models in rats after oral administration,and the pharmacokinetics main parameters of the two formulations were different:the AUC_(0-t) and C_(max) of puerarin were much greater than those of puerarin crude extract,but T_(max),t_(1/(2z)),CL/F and V_z/F were much lesser than those of puerarin crude extract.Conclusion The complex components in pueraria crude extract can affect the pharmacokinetics of puerarin in rat in vivo.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of endovascular embolization for the treatment of cerebellar arteriouvenous malformations (AVMs) associated with aneurysm, and to discuss its technical points. Methods The clinical data of 142 patients with cerebellar AVMs were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 142 patients, 42 had concomitant aneurysms. The patients were divided into concomitant aneurysm group and without aneurysm group. Using univariate and multivariate statistical models, the patient’s gender and age, the presence or absence of hemorrhage, the lesion’s location and size, and the presence or absence of deep venous drainage were analyzed. Results A total of 61 concomitant aneurysms were detected in the 42 patients, which were located within the malformation mass (n=14) or on the feeding artery (n=47). The concomitant aneurysms located in the malformation were closely related to AVM hemorrhage and the deep venous drainage. During the follow-up period after endovascular embolization, no recurrence of bleeding was observed in all the 42 patients. Conclusion In order to reduce the relapse rate of hemorrhage, the formulation of therapeutic measures should be based on the management of the concomitant aneurysm when endovascular embolization treatment is employed for AVM associated with aneurysm.

Objective To observe the influence of Huiyang Shengji Ointment and its modified formulae on interleukin-1 (IL-1α) and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) in diabetic rats with chronic skin ulcers, and explore the mechanism for promoting the healing of ulcer.Methods Six out of 160 rats were randomly selected as a blank group, without any further processing. The remaining rats were made diabetic model and randomly divided into five groups after 2 weeks:1 d, 3 d, 5 d, 7 d and 14 d groups. Then, these groups were further divided into normal group (Vaseline ointments), model group (Vaseline ointments), Huiyang Shengji Ointment group (whole formula Ointment), Wenyang Yiqi group (Yiqi group, modified Wenyang Yiqi formula ointments) and Huoxue Shengji group (Huoxue group, modified Huoxue Shengji formula ointments). Normal group and model group were given Vaseline ointments;whole formula group, Yiqi group and Huoxue group were given corresponding ointment. Normal group used the method of skin excision, while other groups used STZ injection-hydrocortisone interference-skin excision-foreign body embedded preparation of composite factors for chronic skin ulcer model. After the appropriate treatment period, the rats were executed and tested for the contents of IL-1α and TXB2 in serum by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of five time points.Results In treatment 3 d, the contents of IL-1α in Yiqi group were significantly higher than the blank group, model group, whole formula group and Huoxue group (P<0.05). In treatment 5 d, the contents of IL-1α in whole formula group were significantly higher than the blank group and model group (P<0.05). In treatment 7 d, the contents of IL-1α in each treatment group were significantly higher than blank group and model group (P<0.05), and the whole formula group was higher than the Yiqi group and Huoxue group. In treatment 14 d, the contents of IL-1α in model group and Huoxue group were lower than the blank group (P<0.05). In treatment 3 d, the contents of TXB2 in normal group and the whole formula group were higher than the blank group (P<0.05). In treatment 5 d, the contents of TXB2 in whole formula group were higher than the blank group and the normal group (P<0.05). In treatment 7 d, the contents of TXB2 in Yiqi group were higher than the blank, the model, the whole formula and Huoxue groups (P<0.05). In treatment 14 d, the contents of TXB2 in Huoxue group were higher than the blank and model group (P<0.05), and the contents of TXB2 in the blank group and normal group was lower than those treatment groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Huiyang Shengji Ointment and its modified formulae could promote inflammation, stimulate secretion of inflammatory cytokines, while Yiqi Wenyang ointments played a more active role in promoting inflammation of the early phase of wound surface.
