ObjectiveTo evaluate whether AN69 ST membrane would prolong filter lifetime in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) without anticoagulation in patients with high risk of bleeding.Methods A single-center, prospective, randomized, double-blind control trial with crossover design was conducted. From March 1st to December 31st in 2013, patients who were admitted to Department of Critical Care Medicine of the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University meeting CRRT treatment indications, but could not receive systemic anticoagulation because of high risk of bleeding were studied. The selected patients were randomly divided into two groups according to a random number table, and four filters consisting of two AN69 ST100 membrane filters (A) and two traditional AN69 M100 membrane filters (B) were used for them. GroupⅠ with the filter order of A-B-A-B, and groupⅡ with the order of B-A-B-A. The clinical data of patients was recorded in detail, and conventional AN69 ST and AN69 membrane filter lifetime, their influence on coagulability, and the incidence of bleeding complications were compared.Results Seventeen patients were enrolled, with 10 in groupⅠ, and 7 in groupⅡ. The basic medical characteristics including gender, age, acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ (APAECHⅡ) score, sequential organ failure score (SOFA), Acute Renal Injury Network (AKIN) stage, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), international normalized ratio (INR), platelet count (PLT), and use of mechanical ventilation were not significantly different between two groups. But the use of vasoactive drug was more frequent in groupⅡcompared with that of groupⅠ[100.0% (7/7) vs. 30.0% (3/10),χ2 = 8.330,P = 0.010]. AN69 ST filter lifetime (n =34) was (15.92±2.10) hours, there was no statistically significant difference compared with that of AN69 membrane (t = 0.088,P = 0.942), filter lifetime of which (n = 34) was (16.12±1.38) hours. It was also found by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis that there was no significant difference between the two membrane filter lifetime (χ2=1.589,P =0.208). Logistic regression analysis showed that the life of the first filter was not correlated with coagulation indicators, including APTT, PT, INR, and PLT [APTT: odds ratio (OR) = 0.977, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.892-1.071, P = 0.623; PT:OR = 1.001, 95%CI = 0.901-1.109,P = 0.988; INR:OR = 1.078, 95%CI = 0.348-3.340,P = 0.896;PLT:OR = 0.996, 95%CI = 0.974-1.019,P = 0.735]. The application rate of vasoactive drugs, which was different between two groups for basic medical indications showed no effect on filter life time (OR = 2.541, 95%CI = 0.239-26.955,P = 0.439). Reasons of clotting in filters were also analyzed, and it was found that blood coagulation in the filter ranked the top (88.2%), and the other reasons were catheter-related problems, death, and unscheduled transport. No difference in blood coagulation function was found in both groups after treatment for 12 hours, and there was no bleeding complication.ConclusionDuring the CRRT without systemic anticoagulant, both surface-treatment with polyethyleneimine AN69 and AN69 ST membrane cannot prolong filter lifetime.

A novel method for quantification of astragaloside IV in Radix Astragli was developed by using online SPE liquid chromatography coupled with corona charged aerosol detection( CAD) . The sample solution
was loaded into Acclaim Polar AdvantageⅡC18(50 mm×4. 6 mm, 3 μm) which was selected as online SPE column. Then the cleaning process was done by using the Right one of dual gradient pumps with Methanol-water as mobile phase. Acclaim C18(150 mm×4. 6 mm, 5 μm) was selected as analytical column with acetonitrile-water as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1. 0 mL/min. The eluate containing the target from SPE column was transferred into the analytical column by heart-cutting mode. The temperature of nebulizer of corona CAD was set at 30 ℃ and the nitrogen pressure was 241. 3 kPa. The baseline separation of astragaloside IV from matrix components has been achieved. There was a good linear correlation in the range of 4 . 0-80 mg/L for astragaloside IV and the correlation coefficient was 0 . 9998 . The standard addition average recovery of astragaloside IV in Radix Astragli was 97 . 6%. It has been validated that astragaloside IV in Radix Astragli and its preparations can be quantified rapidly and accurately with this method.
