Chinese Journal of Analytical Chemistry 2017;45(9):1309-1315
Moss has high tolerance and accumulating capacity to heavy metal.In this study, the distribution of heavy metal elements in moss sampled from lead-zinc mine was analyzed by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry.The speciation of lead was analyzed by X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy.Research showed that the contents of Pb, Zn, Cd and As in the moss of the mining area were extremely high, and their maximum concentration were 1.06 mg/g , 1.23 mg/g, 30.5 μg/g, 13.2 μg/g, respectively.Besides, the shoots especially the new tissue of the moss were the major sites for accumulation and storage of heavy metals.The micro-distribution characteristics varied among Hypnum plumaeforme and Brachytheciumprocumbens, indicating the difference of different species of moss in absorption pathway, accumulation and tolerance mechanisms for heavy metal.Linear combination fitting results indicated that the main lead speciation in moss was lead phosphate (78%) and lead oxide (22%), which suggested that the precipitation of lead phosphate might be the main mechanism of tolerance for moss.

Objective To compare the sedation and anti-inflammatory effects of dexmedetomidine and midazolam on critical ill children with multiple trauma. Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. Sixty-five critical ill children with multiple trauma admitted to pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of Anhui Province Children's Hospital from January 2014 to September 2016 were enrolled, who were randomly divided into dexmedetomidine group (33 cases) and midazolam group (32 cases). Children of both groups received sufentanil for analgesia. Children in dexmedetomidine group firstly received 1.0 μg/kg intravenous bolus of dexmedetomidine for 10 minutes, then continuous infusion of 0.2-0.7 μg·kg-1·h-1, while in midazolam group children received 1-5 μg·kg-1·min-1 of midazolam in continuous infusion. The goal of sedation was to maintain a Richmond agitation-sedation scale (RASS) score of -1 to 0. The level of serum interleukin (IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) at 24, 48, 72 hours after treatment, and the duration of mechanical ventilation, ratio of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), length of stay in the PICU, ratio of sepsis and multiple organ failure (MOF) and mortality were also recorded. Results Compared with midazolam, dexmedetomidine decreased the level of pro-inflammatory cytokines and increased the level of anti-inflammatory cytokines. At 24 hours after treatment, the levels of serum IL-1β, TNF-α significantly decreased and IL-10 significantly increased [IL-1β (ng/L):6.48±2.89 vs. 8.07±3.14, TNF-α (μg/L): 11.25±5.21 vs. 15.44±5.97, IL-10 (ng/L): 12.10±5.35 vs. 9.58±4.71, all P < 0.05]. At 48 hours after treatment, the levels of serum IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β, TNF-α and CRP significantly decreased and IL-10 significantly increased [IL-6 (ng/L): 209.67±80.49 vs. 336.31±123.94, IL-8 (ng/L):229.09±80.81 vs. 298.28±90.25, IL-1β (ng/L): 7.31±3.02 vs. 8.74±3.17, TNF-α (μg/L): 12.52±4.79 vs. 16.58±5.98, CRP (g/L): 47.82±24.92 vs. 72.35±31.71, IL-10 (ng/L): 12.90±5.42 vs. 10.01±4.79, all P < 0.05]. At 72 hours after treatment, the levels of serum IL-8 and CRP significantly decreased [IL-8 (ng/L): 234.64±96.24 vs. 290.28±103.97, CRP (g/L): 53.24±29.12 vs. 86.58±38.30, both P < 0.05]. Compared with midazolam, dexmedetomidine could significantly reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation (days: 4.7±1.3 vs. 6.6±2.1), length of PICU stay (days: 9.5±2.7 vs. 12.3±3.9, both P < 0.05), and the ratio of sepsis (33.3% vs. 53.1%, P < 0.05). But there were no significant differences in ratio of CRRT (18.2% vs. 18.8%), MOF (9.1% vs. 18.8%) and mortality (6.1% vs. 12.5%) between two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion Compared with midazolam, dexmedetomidine had better efficacy in the treatment of severe multiple trauma in children and reduce the level of inflammation.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the long-term toxicity of fully human anti-human tumor necrosis factor-α monoclonal antibody(anti-hTNF-α FHMA)for injection in cynomolgus monkeys. METHODS Forty cynomolgus monkeys were randomly divided into 5 groups (4 males and 4 females in each group):negative control group,adalimumab 10 mg·kg-1 group,anti-hTNF-αFHMA 2,10 and 50 mg·kg-1 groups. Cynomolgus monkeys in each group were injected sc once a week for 5 consecutive times, followed by 4 weeks of recovery. During the test,general clinical observation,body mass,body temperature,electrocardiogram(ECG),hematology,coagulation function,blood biochemistry,urine, ophthalmology,immune index,and pathological changes in organs and tissues were observed. At the same time,plasma drug concentrations were detected and the toxicokinetics parameters were analyzed. RESULTS No significant toxicological changes related to drugs were observed in general clinical observation,body mass,body temperature,ECG,ophthalmic examination,blood cell counts,coagu?lation function,blood biochemistry,urine analysis,lymphocyte subsets,cytokines,serum immuno?globulin,serum complement. Neutralizing anti-drug antibody(ADA)could be detected in adalimumab group and anti-hTNF-αFHMA groups. Anti-hTNF-αFHMA showed linear dynamic characteristics in cyno?molgus monkeys. At the same dose(10 mg·kg-1),anti-hTNF-αFHMA had similar immunogenicity and kinetics characteristics to adalimumab. CONCLUSION The level of anti-hTNF-α FHMA at which no adverse effect was observed was 50 mg · kg-1,which is equivalent to 75 times clinical dosage of quasi (0.67 mg·kg-1),which suggests that anti-hTNF-αFHMA be safe in clinical use.

Objective To investigate the value of Q-analysis real-time elasticity in differentiating between benign and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods Eighty-six thyroid nodules in 62 patients with pathologic diagnosis were included in this study and were examined using Q-analysis real-time elasticity. The real-time elasticity features were observed and the quantitative index including the whole elasticity rate and the local elasticity rate were compared between benign and malignant nodules. Results There were 51 benign and 35 malignant nodules according to histopathological examination. The Q-analysis curve of real-time elasticity of benign nodules was smoother and with lower peak, compared with that of malignant nodules. The whole elasticity rate of malignant nodules were significantly higher than that of benign nodules (3.59±0.84 vs 2.32±0.56, P=0.000). And the local elasticity rate of malignant nodules were significantly higher than that of benign nodules (3.96±1.32 vs 2.39±0.58, P=0.000). The cutoff point of whole elasticity rate for the differential diagnosis was 3.25 with sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy as 71.4%, 96.1% and 86.0% respectively. The cutoff point of local elasticity rate for the differential diagnosis was 3.45 with sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy as 68.6%, 96.1% and 84.9% respectively. The diagnostic efficiency of whole elasticity rate and local elasticity rate had no significant difference (P=0.591).Conclusions Q-analysis real-time elasticity could provide the real-time elasticity features of thyroid nodules. The whole and local elasticity rate as the quantitative index contributed to the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules.

Epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is an oncogene involved in tumour genesis and progression. It is expressed in 7% of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) and is associated with drug resistance of epidermal growth factor receptor monoclonal antibodies. With the emergence of the therapeutic dilemma of CRC and the survival benefits of targeting HER2 for patients with breast cancer and gastric cancer, the significance of HER2 in CRC and the prognostic value of anti-HER2 therapy have been widely concerned, clinical researches on HER2-positive CRC have been continuously carried out. Currently, the diagnostic criteria for HER2 positive CRC have gradually been unified. HER2-targeting therapies such as monoclonal antibodies, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, antibody-drug coupling and HER2-related immunotherapy alone or in combination have shown good efficacy and brought significant survival benefits for HER2 positive CRC. This paper reviews the research progress of HER2 in CRC.
