Objective: To optimize the formula and preparation process of docetaxel-loaded pluronic P123 micelles. Methods:Docetaxel-loaded pluronic P123 micelles were prepared by a thin-film hydration method and optimized by central composite design and response surface methodology. The influencing factors including the quantity of docetaxel, volume of organic phase, volume of hydra-tion and temperature of hydration were investigated with the entrapment efficiency as the index. The morphology of micelles was ob-served under a transmission electron microscope. The particle diameter and zeta potential were determined. The in vitro release property was measured by a dialysis method. Results:The relationship between the influencing factors and the evaluation parameter was fitted by multi-linear equation, quadratic polynomial equation and cubic polynomial equation, respectively. The results showed that the cubic polynomial equation was superior to the others according to the correlation coefficient. Docetaxel-loaded pluronic P123 micelles were spherical with the mean diameter, zeta potential, polydispersity index, encapsulation efficiency and drug loading of 108. 3 nm,-3. 99 mV, 0. 265, (97. 91 ± 0. 28)% and (3. 72 ± 0. 12)%, respectively. The cumulative release in vitro reached 95. 03% in 120 h, and docetaxel-loaded pluronic P123 micelles had notable sustained-release property. Conclusion: The technical process for do-cetaxel-loaded pluronic P123 micelles is simple and usable, and docetaxel-loaded pluronic P123 micelles show high encapsulation effi-ciency and notable sustained-release property.

Objective:To observe the changes of plasma oxytocin (OT), arginine vasopressin (AVP) and anxiety after exercise intervention in male opioids-dependent patients.Methods:Forty-five male opioids addicts who met the inclusion criteria and voluntarily participated in exercise rehabilitation were enrolled.According to stratified random sampling, all subjects were divided into exercise group ( n=22) and control group( n=23). Exercise group attended aerobic exercise combined with resistance training intervention, 5 times per week for 8 weeks.Aerobic exercise was mainly treadmill and elliptical, while resistance training was based on strength and endurance training.Subjects completed self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and Chinese perceived stress perception scale (CPSS) before and after intervention, as well as physical fitness tests. Besides, plasma OT and AVP levels were detected.Independent sample t-test, paired sample t-test, and Chi-square test were conducted by using SPSS 20.0 software. Results:Before the intervention, there were no significant differences between the two groups in demography, drug history, SAS, CPSS, plasma OT and AVP(all P>0.05). The overall anxiety detection rate was 66.67%, the scores of SAS and CPSS were both higher than the Chinese norm, and the difference was significant(both P<0.01) . After the intervention, the levels of plasma AVP, the scores of SAS and CPSS in the exercise group (AVP(19.57±2.23)pg/ml, SAS(50.17±10.09), CPSS(36.59±6.36)) were significantly lower than those in the control group (AVP(22.53±2.56)pg/ml, SAS(57.12±12.00), CPSS(43.09±5.57), all P<0.05), and plasma OT((61.98±5.27) pg/ml) was significantly higher than that in the control group ((54.64±7.62) pg/ml)( P<0.01). Compared with baseline, maximal oxygen uptake(VO 2max), 1 min push-ups and sitting body flexion increased significantly in the exercise group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Opioids drug addicts were prone to excessive stress and anxiety and other negative emotions in the process of drug withdrawal. Eight-week aerobic combined with resistance exercise changed the plasma OT and AVP levels of opioids addicts, effectively alleviated the perceived stress, improved the anxiety state and their health related fitness level.

Objective To investigate the incidences, risk factors, genotypes and epidemiology of community-acquired blood stream infection caused by extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs)-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia strains and to analyze the sensitivity of those ESBLs producing strains to commonly used antibiotics. Methods Forty-two patients who were diagnosed with community-ac-quired blood stream infection caused by Escherichia coli or Klebsiella pneumonia strains in Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital were recruited in this study. Disc diffusion method was used for the phenotypic confirmato-ry test of ESBLs. Agar dilution method was performed to measure the antimicrobial susceptibility of the ESBLs-producing strains to 13 clinically commonly used antibiotics. Genotypes of the ESBLs-producing strains were identified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was used to analyze the epidemiology of ESBLs-producing strains. Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the risk factors for community-acquired blood stream infection. Results The ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli strains accounted for 56. 3% (18 / 32) and the ESBLs-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains accounted for 20% (2 / 10). All of the 20 ESBLs-producing strains were sensitive to imipenem, meropenem, ertapen-em, nitrofurantoin and moxalactam. The ESBLs-producing strains sensitive to amikacin, piperacillin-tazobactam and fosfomycin accounted for 95% , 90% and 85% , respectively. Drug resistance rates of the 20 strains to cefotaxime, levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin and cefepime were relatively high accounting for 100% , 80% , 80% and 75% , respectively. Among the 20 ESBLs-producing strains, 7 strains only carried the CTM gene, while the other 13 strains were all positive for two genotypes of ESBLs, mainly identified as TEM+CTM-M-14 and TEM+CTM-15 genotypes. The 18 Escherichia coli strains were classified into 10 ST types, most of which were ST131 type, followed by ST10 and ST38 types. This study indicated that malignant tumor might be a possible risk factor. Conclusion The prevalence of community-acquired blood stream infection caused by ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli strains was becoming increasingly serious. Malignant tumor might be the risk factor associated with the producing of ESBLs in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia strains. TEM+CTX-M-14 was the predominant genotype of ESBLs-producing strains and the prevalent clone was ST131 type. Carbapenems and enzyme inhibitor compounds were ideal drugs for the treatment of commu-nity-acquired blood stream infection caused by ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia strains. This study was limited by the small sample size. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct further resear-ches based on a large number of samples.
