0.999 5), RSD were no more than 3.0%. The recovery rates were 98.0%-102.0%. There was no significant difference between the results of this method and EDTA-Na2 titration. Conclusion The method is rapid, accurate, simple, little disturbance and is acceptable in determination of total hardness in drinking water.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for food & drug regulatory authorities in China to disclose government information.METHODS:In the light of the development and status quo of the disclosure of information in US FDA,the access,content and procedure for the disclosure of information in FDA were discussed.RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:There are many similarities between US and China in the disclosure of information.In view of the practical situation of governmental information disclosure in food and drug regulatory authorities in China,Chinese government should be able to find out such key issues as the human and financial support is much needed in FDA information disclosure,the disclosure level should be in line with our national condition,a three-dimensional publicity system of government information at different level should be established and emphasis should be laid to the key disclosed information etc based on the research on the development,access,content and procedure of information disclosure in FDA.

Objective To analyze the effect of clomipramine combine sleep deprivation on depression rat behavior and hippocampal CA3 neuron apoptosis.Methods Chronic unpredictable mild stimulation was used to establish 40 depression model rats.They were randomly divided into depression group,clomipramine group (5 mg/kg orally),sleep deprivation group (36 h continuous full sleep deprivation),chlorpromazine combination of sleep deprivation group,and then selected 10 rats as control group.Open-field test and water maze test were used to test rats' behavioral change after 28 days intervention.RT-PCR,Western blot were used to detect the GDNF and Bcl-2 expression of hippocampal CA3 neurons.TUNEL assay was performed to test hippocampal CA3 neuron apoptosis ratios in each group.Results Open-field test level score,vertical score and latency of combination group were (75.6±7.3),(26.4±4.3),(1.1±0.2),and showed no significant difference with those of control group((79.4 ±6.8),(28.6±5.7),(1.0±0.4)) after 28 d intervention (P＞0.05),while the level score,vertical score were significantly higher than those in other three groups(P＜0.05),and the latency period was significantly lower than that in other three groups (P＜0.05).The combined group showed a trend of gradually shortened in water maze escape latency.GDNF,Bcl-2 expression of control group and combined group was significantly higher than those in other three groups (P＜0.05),while the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (P＞0.05).Sleep deprivation group' apoptotic rate was the highest (55±6)％,significantly higher than the control group and the combination group ((14±3) ％ and (19±4)％).Conclusion Clomipramine combined sleep deprivation can improve the ability of rat model of depression and suppression of acts of hippocampal CA3 neuron apoptosis,and its effect may be related to increased hippocampal CA3 GDNF,Bcl-2 level.

Our study was based on the book Theory of Epidemic Heat Syndrome. This book was written by Mr. Shao Dengying of Qing dynasty, who was famous in Qing Dynasty on curing virus infection. We described his unique insights in diagnosis and treatment of epidemic heat syndrome in six aspects: the origin, position of epidemic heat invasion, difference between epidemic heat syndrome and typhus, paying attention to the symptoms of epidemic heat, differentiation and treatment from qi, bloods and stomach, and attaching importance to the stomach Qi and kidney essence etc.

AIM:To study the effect of panax notoginseng saponins on the left atrial appendage(LAA)of the guinea pigs.METHODS:Standard microelectrode intracellular recording technique was used to record the LAA action potential(AP)and the effective refractory period(ERP)in the guinea pigs during the pouring with different density of PNS.RESULTS:The effect of PNS in concentration of 0.7,7,70,700 mg/L was significant at 20 min,the APD50 and APD80 of the pouring at 20 min,30 min,40 min of the 70 mg/L was longer than the reference group(P

This paper tried to describe the hospital labor union how to play an important role on hospital's development,as well as adopt its own characteristic and advantages in order to improve hospital's medical treament and scientific research.

Objective:To examine the relationship between brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and the recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) after successful electrical cardioversion (EC) by a meta analysis approach.Methods:Based on PubMed,Medline and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases,related literatures,published from 1980-2008,were searched; a manual search was also performed.The included trials were analyzed by RevMan4.2 software for meta analysis.Results:Totally seven studies were finally included.The analysis revealed that the baseline BNP level were greater in patients with AF recurrence than those without AF recurrence,with the standardized mean difference in the BNP levels being 0.82 units (95% confidence interval 0.12 to 1.52).The test for overall effect Z-score was 2.30,with a P value of 0.02; there was significant difference.Conclusion:It is suggested that the higher BNP level after successful electrical cardioversion is associated with greater risk of AF recurrence.The level of BNP may serve as an indicator for AF recurrence after successful EC.

Constructing internal quality control system is an important measure to improve teaching quality in the universities.Teaching supervision plays an important role in the teaching quality guaranteeing system.This article introduced and summarized the practice of teaching supervision in Tianjin Medical University including the establishment of three-leveled teaching supervision,emphasis of process management,innovation,significance and achievements of teaching supervision.

Objective To investigate effect of emodin on mice immune function and its hemolysis toxicity.Methods The mouse specific immune cells of T, B lymphocytes and nonspecific immune cell of macrophages and NK cells were prepared and incubated in vitro.The different immune cells were treated by emodin with different concentrations of 5,10,15 and 20μM, and DMSO as control group.The effect of emodin on immune cells function was detected by neutral red assay and MTT assay.The hemolysis test in vitro was conducted by emodin with different concentrations of 20, 40, 60 and 80μM, physiological saline as blank control group and sterile distilled water as positive control group, then the hemolysis toxicity of emodin was observed. Results There were no significant difference of T and B lymphocyte proliferation among control group, 5, 10, 15 and 20 μM group(F=0.009,P=1.000;F=0.003,P=1.000), the phagocytic ability of macrophages enhanced in each dose group and was concentration dependent(F=665.525,P=0.000), the proliferation rate of macrophages enhanced and was concentration dependent(F=134.812,P=0.000), the activity of NK cells enhanced and was concentration dependent(F=200.190,P=0.000).Hemolysis test results showed the hemolysis rate was less than 5% in the range of 20 to 80μM emodin.Conclusion Emodin could significantly promote the nonspecific immune cells activity.Within the concentration of experiment, emodin has no hemolysis toxicity.
