China Pharmacy 2017;28(25):3457-3460
OBJECTIVE:To study the consistency policies of generic drugs in China,America and Japan comparatively,and provide reference for perfecting quality and efficacy consistency evaluation of generic drugs in China. METHODS:Generic drugConsistency evaluationQuality evaluationDESIwere used as keywords to search the related literatures or information of ge-neric drugs published or reported in CNKI,Web of Science,Elsevier,Springer database and USA FDA website during Jan. 1st, 1950-Jun. 30th,2016. And comparative analysis was conducted for the historical background,evaluation methods and policy influ-ences of consistency policies of generic drugs in China,America and Japan. RESULTS:There were differences in the historical background,evaluation methods,major participants and policy influences of consistency policies of generic drugs in China,Ameri-ca and Japan. The evaluation for generic drugs in USA was reevaluation of the drugs effectiveness under the history of drug registra-tion regulation was imperfect. With experts'review,it was evaluated based on FDA,enterprises,scientific literature evidence and experts review. Main evaluation method was in vitro dissolution test in Japan. The consistency evaluation of generic drug in China focused on the generic drug marketing authorization,mainly using in vivo bioequivalence. And the standards of reference prepara-tions were from the basically similar drugs to the original drugs. CONCLUSIONS:Compared with innovation-based countries like America and Japan,the availability of reference preparations in China is low,and policy environment is more complex. China should further improve the laws and regulations,giving reasonable buffer period,considering the diversity of evaluation methods, exemptions in special circumstances and current situation of pharmaceutical industry,paying attention to the balance between techni-cal supervision and system supervision.

In order to quickly and accurately identify the onset and offset of the QRS complex in electrocardiogram (ECG) signal with different forms, a triple local transform method was employed in the present study to detect the suspected onset and offset points of QRS. The accurate onset and offset points of QRS complexes were selected according to the rules drawn by the trial process based on the characteristics of angle and amplitude constituted within these suspected points. The method makes full advantage of the angle and amplitude characteristics of the QRS complex, by which the results can be acquired with some simple arithmetic quickly, accurately and adaptively. The method was investigated with data from the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database and satisfactory results were obtained.

8.Achilles tendon graft matches with bone tunnel of different sizes for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2013;(31):5620-5625
BACKGROUND:Anterior cruciate ligament is the important anatomic structure to maintain the knee joint stability. The tendon bone healing and clinical functional recovery after anterior cruciate ligament have attracted more attention. OBJECTIVE:To observe the healing of graft tendon and surrounding bone with histological method through the same diameter grafts matching with the bone tunnel of different sizes in the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery, and to detect the functional recovery with biomechanics. METHODS:Middle 1/3 of canine autologous tendon was selected as the anterior cruciate ligament graft, and then trimmed into the same diameter of 4 mm. Sixteen adult mongrel canine were randomly divided into four groups. The anterior cruciate ligament was resected completely, and the tibial and femoral tunnels were prepared on the end sites of tibia and femur with the diameters of 5, 4.5, 4 and 3.5 mm, then implanted into the tendon in prepared and linked into the bone tunnel. At 6 weeks after reconstruction, the experimental canine were sacrificed under general anesthesia to col ect the tissue and organs in the surgical area. Then the hematoxylin-eosin staining, biomechanical testing and statistical analysis were performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 6 weeks after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, anatomical observation showed that there were no significant differences in growth of grafts and bone tunnels between groups;hematoxylin-eosin staining showed sharpey-like fibronectin could be seen in the tendon bone healing surface, and the col agen fibers in the 3.5 mm bone tunnel group were more compact and regular than those in the other groups;the biomechanical testing results in the 3.5 mm bone tunnel group were better than those in the other groups. The results indicate that during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, decreasing the diameter of bone tunnel that matched with grafts in order to make the tendon and the bone tunnel closely matched can provide a more stable cel biological and mechanical environment, accelerate the formation and transformation of tendon-bone healing interface, and can improve the quality of tendon-bone healing.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of multi-directional mechanical traction (MT) for the treatment of patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH) compared with longitudinal traction (LT) as control. Method: This prospective, single-blind, randomized clinical trial was performed in Qi Lu Hospital, Shandong University from January 2008 to December 2008. One hundred and twenty outpatients with LDH were randomly divided into MT group or LT group. MT group was treated with computer-controlled multi-directional mechanical traction.LTgroupwastreatedwithlongitudinaltraction.RolandMorrisLowBackPainandDisability Questionnaire (RMDQ), visual analogue scale (VAS), and straight leg raising (SLR) angle were measured for every patient pre-, 4 weeks post-, and 1 year post-treatment.Result: The results of clinical observations showed significant improvements inRMDQ, VAS, and SLR angle assessments (all P<0.05) in both groups 4 weeks post- and 1 year post-treatment compared with pre-treatment. Score of RMDQ in MT group was significantly lower than that in LT group(P<0.05), however, there was no significant difference between two groups in VAS score and SLR angle (P>0.05). The differences in improvement ratios between two groups were not significant (all P>0.05). The clinical outcomes were negatively correlated with patient's age and disease duration.Conclusion: The effect of MT is equivalent and probably superior to that of LT in improving the symptoms and clinical findings of patients with LDH.
