Based on the demand of nasal drug delivery high drug loadings, using the unique phase transfer of solute, integrating the phospholipid complex preparation and submicron emulsion molding process of Scutellariae Radix extract, the study obtained the preparation of the high drug loadings submicron emulsion of Scutellariae Radix extract. In the study of drug solution dispersion method, the uniformity of drug dispersed as the evaluation index, the traditional mixing method, grinding, homogenate and solute phase transfer technology were investigated, and the solute phase transfer technology was adopted in the last. With the adoption of new technology, the drug loading capacity reached 1.33% (phospholipid complex was 4%). The drug loading capacity was improved significantly. The transfer of solute method and timing were studied as follows,join the oil phase when the volume of phospholipid complex anhydrous ethanol solution remaining 30%, the solute phase transfer was completed with the continued recycling of anhydrous ethanol. After drug dissolved away to oil phase, the preparation technology of colostrum was determined with the evaluation index of emulsion droplet form. The particle size of submicron emulsion, PDI and stability parameters were used as evaluation index, orthogonal methodology were adopted to optimize the submicron emulsion ingredient and main influential factors of high pressure homogenization technology. The optimized preparation technology of Scutellariae Radix extract nasal submicron emulsion is practical and stable.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the results of preoperative needle electromyography and the recovery of abductor pollicis brevis (APB) function in patients with severe carpal tunnel syndrome. Methods The clinical data of 68 patients (76 hands) with severe carpal tunnel syndrome were retrospectively analyzed. According to the results of preoperative needle electromyography, the patients were divided into the motor unit potential (MUP) positive group (46 cases, 52 hands), and MUP negative group (22 cases, 24 hands). The patients were followed up 1 year after operation, and the manual muscle testing (MMT) grade of abductor pollicis brevis muscle, functional assessment of thumb and patient satisfaction was recorded. Results The MMT grade ≥ 3 rate and satisfaction rate 1 year after operation in MUP positive group were significantly higher than those in MUP negative group: 100.0% (52/52) vs. 75.0% (18/24) and 100.0% (52/52) vs. 66.7% (16/24), and there were statistical differences (P＜0.05). The patient′s thumb function 1 year after operation was evaluated by coin pickup test, button fastening test and sewing needle clamp test. The results showed that the thumb function in MUP positive group was significantly better than that in MUP negative group, and there was statistical difference (P＜0.05). Conclusions The recovery of postoperative thumb function is related with the evocation MUP of postoperative abductor pollicis brevis needle electromyography. For MUP positive patients, there is no need for secondary thumb opponensplasty 1 year after operation. Needle electromyography has a certain reference value for thumb opponensplasty.

0.37).Meanwhile a good correlation (Y=0.99X-0.18,r=0.987) was obtained. Though Westergren method correlated preferably with MICROTEST 1 (Y=0.86X+1.27,r=0.906),there was a markedly different (t=3.174,P=0.001).At last different references values were collected, according to sex and age.Male,32.5 mm/1 h(60 years old);Female, 34.03 mm/1 h(50 years old).Conclusions MICROTEST 1 correlated preferably with Westergren method.The examination by MICROTEST 1 needs small quantity of sample and fewer time.Furthermore,it has good repeatability and stability.The factors such as temperature and Hct have little influence on the results.The result suggested that it is suitable to apply MICROTEST 1 to large- scale clinical laboratory or other labs.But the reference value of ESR was influenced by age,which should be considered in clinical usage.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the factors influencing the prognosis of penis-sparing surgery (PSS) for early-stage penile cancer.

METHODSWe retrospectively studied the clinical data about 45 cases of early-stage penile cancer treated by PSS from January 2007 to December 2014. We calculated the rate of local recurrence-free survival by the Kaplan-Meier method, and conducted univariate and multivariate COX regression analyses on the relevant factors including the patient's age, marital status, tumor location, tumor size, postoperative sexual life, histological grade, and TNM stage.

RESULTSOne-year and three-year local recurrence-free survival rates were 95.5% and 52.2%, respectively. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the histological grade (P = 0.039) and postoperative sexual life (P = 0.049) were independent factors for the prognosis of PSS. Logistic regression showed the patients age to be significantly associated with histological grade (P = 0.014).

CONCLUSIONHistological grade and postoperative sexual life are important independent prognostic factors of PSS for early-stage penile cancer, and the patients age is associated with the prognosis of PSS through its influence on the tumor grade.
