Baicalein-nicotinamide(BE-NCT)co-crystal was chosen as model drug to investigate the thermody-namic characteristics.Solubilities of BE in NCT solutions in ethyl acetate at different temperatures were deter-mined in order to explain the complexation behavior of BE-NCT co-crystal.Thermodynamic parameters of co-crys-tal formation progress were calculated.Ternary phase diagrams (TPDs)of the BE-NCT-ethyl acetate systems at various temperatures were established.The non-linear fitting equation according to 1 ∶1 complexation mechanism of BE-NCT co-crystal demonstrated a good correlation between calculated and experimental data (R2 >0.98). Co-crystal formation is a spontaneous process(ΔG°<0).Increase in temperature resulted in the increase of Ksp;decrease of K11 and a narrowed co-crystal zone.The degree of spontaneous reaction also decreased with increased temperature.The spontaneous reaction no longer carried out if the temperature reached T* =315 K sinceΔG°=0(ΔH°=-6.314 ×10 -2 kJ/mol;ΔS°=-0.200 5 J/mol.K).A drop in temperature favors the complexation between BE and NCT in ethyl acetate.Since NCT has higher solubility than BE in ethyl acetate;the TPDs of co-crystal was asymmetric.The DSC diagrams of products prepared via three presupposed methods confirmed that the BE-NCT co-crystal could be generated in solutions of nonstoichiometric compositions.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis of intracranial artery fenestration and its other vascular anomalies with CT angiography ( CTA ) . Methods The image data of 653 patients examined with head CTA and 39 patients diagnosed as intracranial artery fenestration in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Sun Yat-sen University from January 2013 to January 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. The incidence, location,morphology of intracranial artery fenestration, and other vascular anomalies were analyzed. Results (1) In 653 patients,39 (5. 97%) with 41 artery fenestrations were detected. The detection rates of basilar artery fenestration was 3. 37% (n=22),vertebral artery fenestration was 0. 31% (n=2),anterior cerebral artery fenestration was 1. 22% (n =8),anterior communicating artery fenestration was 0. 61%(n=4),and middle cerebral artery fenestration was 0. 76% (n=5),respectively. The post-circulation fenestration was mainly convex lens type (66. 67%,n =17),the anterior-circulation fenestration was mainly fissure type (76. 47%,n=24),and there was significant difference (χ2=7. 411,P<0. 05). (2) In the 39 patients,22 complicated other vascular anomalies. Most of them were unilateral or bilateral fetal-type posterior cerebral arteries (n=10),and followed by aneurysms (n=5). The locations of 5 aneurysms were far from the fenestration,3 located in the communicating segment of internal carotid artery,1 in the top of basilar artery,and 1 in the M2 segment of bilateral middle cerebral arteries. Conclusion CTA can intuitively and clearly reveal the intracranial artery fenestration and other vascular anomalies. But there is no significant correlation between arterial fenestration and vascular anomalies.
