Objective:To develop the uniformity models for felodipine sustalned-release tablets from 3 manufacturers by NIRS in order to study the difference in the preparation technology and detect and screen the tablets quickly by the robust, accurate and repre-sentative models. Methods:The uniformity models for the tablets from 3 manufacturers among 6 manufacturers with evaluative casual inspection were established by NIRS. Region 4 000-9 000 cm-1 was chosen as the modeling section, and the first derivative plus vector normalization was used as the preprocessing method. Results:The uniformity models for the tablets from the three manufacturers was established and used to predict the samplings from the six manufacturers. The prediction success rate was 100%. Conclusion: NIRS can be used to identify felodipine sustalned-release tablets from different manufacturers quickly and study the preparation technology.

In our gastroenterology clinic from Jun. 2008 to Jan. 2009, 20. 9% (277/1320) patients were diagnosed with functional dyspepsia (FD) and 14. 8% (41/277) of them with psychological problems according to Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI). In those with psychological disorders,92.7% were found with somatization, 60. 9% with depression and anxiety, 97.6% with abdominal pain,75.6% with bloating, 63.4% with early fullness and 36. 6% with nausea. More than 80% patients with anxiety and depression complained irritability, worry, fatigue, poor concentration, memory loss and insomni.a. After 4 weeks of psychological consultation and anti-depression treatment, 5 patients had significant improvement, 31 had improvement and 3 had no response. The overall response rate was 87. 8%.In summary,there is a high prevalence of depression and anxiety in population with FD. Hypochondria and somatization are common among these patients. Psychological consultation with anxiolytic drugs may have good therapeutic effects.

Objective To study the distribution of variable number tande repeat(VNTR) polymorphisms of the platelet membrane glycoprotein Ⅰ b? in Han nationality at Harbin and the relationship between these polymorpbisms and cerebral infarction(CI).Methods The identification of alleles and genotypes of VNTR polymorphism of the glycoprotein Ⅰ b? gene was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)in 200 healthy individuls and 200 CI patients(77 lacunar infarction patients and 123 atherosclerotic thrombotic infarction patients),to analyze The relationship between gene polymorphisms and cerebral infarction.Results(1)There were three types of alleles:B、C、D,and five types genotypes:BC,BD,CC, CD,DD in Harbin Han nationality.No person with A allele and BB genotype was found.(2)No statistically significant differences of GP Ⅰ b? gene VNTR polymorphism was found between CI patients or subtype CI patients and controls(P=0.412 and 0.572,respectively).Conclusions(1)This study indicates that the C and D alleles of VNTR polymorphisms of GP Ⅰ b? are the main alleles while the CC and CD genotypes are the main genotypes in Harbin Han people.(2)Our findings indicate that no association exists between the VNTR polymorphism of platelet GP Ⅰ b? gene and CI.

?AlM:To evaluate and observe the efficacy of silicon oil ( SO ) , perfluoropropane ( C3 F8 ) and balanced salt solution ( BSS ) that can be used as tamponade during vitrectomy to treat proliferative diabetic retinopathy ( PDR) complicated with vitreous hemorrhage ( VH) .
?METHODS: Studied retrospectively on 74 eyes of 60 patients who underwent vitrectomy surgery with diabetic vitreous hemorrhage in our hospital during June 2008 and June 2014. Based on repeated prior examines on fundus details and the vitrectomy tamponades were chosen. All the patients had been followed up at least 3mo. Depending on different tamponades, the paitents were nonrandomized in three groups and contrasted as visual acuity, intraocular pressure ( lOP ) and complications respectively.
?RESULTS: There was statistically significant difference among these three groups in preoperative eyesight ( P<0. 05 ). Moreover, the preoperative eyesight was statistically different between SO and BSS (P<0. 05), and difference for the rest being not remarkable(P>0. 05). The difference being statistically difference in the postoperative vision among these three groups ( P <0. 05). The further analysis showed that the paired-comparisons were statistically significant difference between SO and BSS ( P<0. 05 ), while the rest two groups of comparison were non-respectively(P>0. 05). The preoperative visual function was in contrast to the postoperative (P<0. 05). The lOP before surgery was not statistically significant difference(P>0. 05). However,the difference among three groups being statistically in the postoperative vision(P<0. 05), in addition,the difference existed in each group through pairwise comparison ( P<0. 05) . The occurence rate of complications after surgery in this survey was 47%, the SO group was 50%, the C3 F8 was 56%, the BSS group was 44%.
? CONCLUSlON: Vitrectomy is a safe and effective treatment that can help patients who have diabetic vitreous hemorrhage obtain better visual improvement. Because of the physicochemical properties and different conditions, there still has complications after surgery.

Objective To observe the effect of radiofrequency thermocoagulation on patients with refractory supraorbital neuralgia Methods From February, 2007 to September, 2014, 36 patients with refractory supraorbital neuralgia following ineffective conservative ther-apy including medicine and nerve blockade underwent radiofrequency thermocoagulation. Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), Patient Satisfaction Scale (PSS), onset time, effective rate, recurrence rate, additional carbamazepine dosage and side effects were recorded before, and one day, one month, three months, six months, one year, two years after treatment. NRS=0 or 50%diminution was considered effectively. Results It worked two days on average (zero to seven) after treatment. The NRS score decreased (P<0.05) and the PSS score increased (P<0.05) com-pared with the data before treatment. The effective rate was 100%within six months. The recurrence rate was 11.1%within two years. Sec-ond radiofrequency thermocoagulation treatment still worked for the recurrent patients. No other side effect was observed, except permanent frontal numbness, short-time palpebral edema and ecchymosis. Conclusion Radiofrequency thermocoagulation is effective on refractory su-praorbital neuralgia, and the side effects are tolerable so it is an alternative choice for patients experiencing invalid conservative therapy.

OBJECTIVE:To study the anti-tumor effects of Vinblastine (VLB) hydrophilic group modified cationic liposomes in tumor-bearing mice. METHODS:Tumor-bearing model were induced by inoculating yellow ascites of S180 ascites tumor mice. Tumor-bearing mice were randomly divided into model group,VLB sulfate injection group,VLB liposomes group,VLB hydrophil-ic group modified liposomes group,VLB cationic liposomes group and VLB hydrophilic group modified cationic liposomes group, i.e. group A,B,C,D,E and F,with 18 mice in each group. Group A was given normal saline intravenously via mice tail,other groups were given VLB 1.5 mg/kg every 2 days for consecutive 5 times. The anti-tumor effects of different VLB preparations were compared,using living conditions,survival time,tumor volume and weight,and tissue pathological section as indexes. RE-SULTS:Compared with group A,B,C,D and E,the mice of group F were more active,and had longer survival time,smaller tumor volume and lighter tumor weight,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The tissue pathological section of mice in group F indicated that coagulation necrosis,disintegration,and dissolution of tumor cell nucleus. CONCLUSIONS:VLB hydrophilic group modified cationic liposomes have obvious anti-tumor effect,which are better than other VLB preparations.

Objective To observe the effect of pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) on refractory infraorbital neuralgia. Methods From January, 2012 to December, 2014, 49 patients who received ineffective conservative therapy including medicine and nerve blockade underwent PRF treatment. Postoperative Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)=0 or 50%diminution of NRS was considered effective. NRS, effective rate, addition-al carbamazepine dosage and side effects were recorded on the first day, the first week, the second week, the first month, the third month, the sixth month, the first year, and the second year after operation. Results The effective rate were 67%, 67%, 65%, 59%and 51%on the first month, the third month, the sixth month, the first year, and the second year after operation, respectively. No serious side effect was observed, except that eight patients felt short-term (within one month) mild numbness. Conclusion PRF technique is safe and effective for refractory infraorbital neuralgia, and may become an alternative therapy.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of Cangfu Congxian Decoction (CCD) on oxidative stress in granulosa cells of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients.

METHODSForty PCOS patients underwent in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) were assigned to the treatment group and the control group 1 according to random digit table, 20 in each group. Patients in the treatment group took CCD (200 mL, once in the morning and once in the afternoon) 2 months before IVF-ET, while those in the control group 1 took no Chinese medical decoction. Recruited were another 20 patients undergoing IVF-ET for tubal factors (as the control group 2). The clinical effect of IVF-ET were observed, including oocyte retrieval number, 2 pronuclear (2PN) fertilization rate, good quality embryo rate, clinical pregnancy rate, and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) induced transplantation cancel rate. The expression of relative oxygen species (ROS) in granulosa cells was detected using cell immunofluorescence combined with confocal microscopy and FCM.

RESULTSCompared with the control group 1, occyte retrieval number, 2PN fertilization rate, and good quality embryo rate increased in the control group 2 and the treatment group (P <0. 05). OHSS induced transplantation cancel rate decreased in the control group 2 (P < 0.05). Fluorescence intensity of ROS decreased in the treatment group and the control group 2, as compared with the control group 1 (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONCCD increased good quality embryo rate by down-regulating the expression of ROS protein in ovarian granulosa cells, and correcting in vivo oxidative stress.
