To study the pharmacokinetics characteristic of loganin, ferulic acid and stilbene glucoside in rat plasma after oral administration of Bushen Tongluo formula. The plasma samples were treated by using liquid-liquid extraction technique, the concentrations were determined by HPLC-UV. Johnson spherigel C18 column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 μm) was adopted and eluted with the of mobile phase of methanol-water containing 0.01% glacial acetic acid in a gradient mode, with the flow rate at 1.0 mL x min(-1), column temperature at 30 degrees C and injection volume of 10 μL. According to the findings, loganin was determined at 235 nm, ferulic acid and stilbene glucoside were determined at 320 nm, with the sample size of 10 μL. The pharmacokinetic parameters of loganin, ferulic acid and stilbene glucoside were calculated by DAS 2. 0 software as follows: C(max) was (0.369 ± 0.042), (0.387 ± 0.071), (0.233 ± 0.044) mg x L(-1); t(max) was (0.226 ± 0.022), (0.282 ± 0.031), (0.233 ± 0.044) h; t(½β) was (6.89 ± 0.20), (10.73 ± 0.11), (6.93 ± 0.09) h; AUC(0-∞) was (1.91 ± 0.36), (3.22 ± 0.52), (1.52 ± 0.33) mg x h x L(-1); AUCO(0-t) was (1.62 ± 0.33), (2.58 ± 0.43), (1.30 ± 0.30) mg x h x L(-1); CL was (20.2 ± 4.0), (1.39 ± 0.23), (31.7 ± 6.9) L x h(-1) x kg(-1), respectively. The results showed that after the oral administration with Bushen Tongluo formula, loganin, ferulic acid and stilbene glucoside showed concentration-time curves in conformity with the two compartment model, with a rapid absorption, loganin and stilbene glucoside was excreted at a moderate speed, and ferulic acid was excreted slowly (but with the highest bioavailability). Bushen Tongluo formula can main maintain plasma concentration with three administrations everyday and so is suitable to be made into common oral preparation.

Objective To investigate the effects of sevoflurane postconditioning on cardiomyocyte apoptosis during myocardial ischemia-repeffusion (I/R) in rats.Methods Forty-five healthy male Wistar rats weighing 250-280 g were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n =15 each):group sham operation ( group S) ; group I/R and group sevoflurane postconditioning (group Spo).The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 3％ pentobarbital 45 mg/kg,tracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated.Myocardial I/R was produced by occlusion of anterior descending branch of left coronary artery for 30 min followed by 120 min reperfusion in groups I/R and Spo.In group Spo the animals inhaled 2.5％ sevoflurane for 5 min starting from 1 min before reperfusion was started.The animals were sacrificed at the end of 120 min reperfusion.Their hearts were removed for measurement of infarct size and the area at risk and determination of apoptotic index (the number of apoptotic cells/the total number of cells) and Bcl-2 and Bax protein and mRNA expression.Results Sevoflurane postconditioning significantly reduced infarct size in group Spo as compared with group I/R.There was no significant difference in area at risk between groups I/R and Spo.Myocardial I/R significantly increased the apoptotic index,Bcl-2 and Bax protein and mRNA expression in group I/R as compared with group S.Sevoflurane postconditioning significantly decreased apoptotic index and Bax protein and mRNA expression but increased Bcl-2 protein and mRNA expression in group Spo as compared with group I/R.Conclusion Sevoflurane postconditioning attenuates myocardial I/R injury by redncing myocardial apoptosis,up-regulating Bcl-2 expression and down-regulating Bax expression.

Objective To estimate the effect of sun protection education on the severity and treatment of polymorphous light eruption (PLE).Methods Sixty-two patients with PLE were enrolled in this study,and randomly assigned into the control group (n =31) and intervention group (n =31) by using a random number table.Routine therapy was provided to all the subjects at their visits.The intervention group attended two lectures on sun protection at the beginning of spring and summer,and was given an education manual after each lecture.All the subjects completed a face to face interview and a questionnaire on the severity and therapy of PLE at the baseline and 12 months after enrollment.SPSS 11.5 software was used for data processing.Rank sum test,t test and chi-square test were carried out to assess the differences in the severity and treatment of PLE between the control group and intervention group as well as between pre-and post-intervention.Results The patients receiving sun protection education showed a significant decrease in the severity of PLE,including the number of months affected by PLE (t =4.611,P ＜ 0.01),number of PLE episodes (t =3.569,P ＜ 0.01),frequency of facial involvement (Z =2.369,P ＜ 0.05) and the time taken for lesions to appear after sun exposure (Z =2.650,P ＜0.01) in the year after enrollment compared with that before enrollment.Significant differences were also observed between the intervention group and control group in the number of months affected by PLE (t =3.679,P ＜ 0.01),number of PLE episodes (t =2.995,P ＜ 0.05),frequency of facial involvement (Z =2.169,P ＜ 0.05),the time taken for lesions to appear after sun exposure (Z =2.169,P ＜ 0.05) in the year after enrollment.The percentage of patients applying highly potent topical glucocorticosteroids (x2 =10.928,P ＜ 0.01)and administrating antihistamines (x2 =18.723,P ＜ 0.01) as well as the cumulative time of treatment with oral antihistamines (Z =2.656,P ＜ 0.01) were significantly reduced in the intervention group in the year after enrollment than in that before enrollment.Further more,a marked decrease was found in the percentage of patients applying topical highly potent glucocorticosteroids (x2 =4.521,P ＜ 0.05) and administrating antihistamines (x2 =10.949,P ＜0.01) as well as the cumulative time of treatment with oral antihistamines (Z =3.353,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Sun protection education through lectures and manuals appears to be an efficient adjuvant for the relief of PLE severity as well as for the reduction in the use of antihistamines and glucocorticosteroids,suggesting that dermatologists should pay more attention to sun protection education in the treatment of photosensitive diseases.

Objective To study the current incidence of Keshan disease in Yunnan Province,and provide scientific basis for Keshan disease(KD) prevention and control. Methods Based on the Scheme of KD Surveillance, 16 villages in 11 counties were chosen as surveillance sites by the historical data. An survey was made to the residents in the 16 surveillance sites by filling in the questionnaire, inquiry medical history, clinical examination, electrocardiogram and 2 meters post-anterior chest X-ray for suspected cases. KD cases were diagnosed according to the Diagnostic Criteria for Keshan Disease(GB 17021-1997). The prevalence data of KD in the whole province were collected from the KD case report in 2007 and the trace surveys. Results There were 6877 residents in 16 surveillance sites of 11 surveillance counties and totally 39 KD cases were diagnosed with a detection ratio of 0.57% (39/6877). The detection ratio of latent and chronic KD were 0.41%(28/6877) and 0.16%(11/6877), respectively and no acute or subacute cases were found. The cases aged 5 to 14 years old accounting for 66.67% (26/39). Electrocardiogram examination of 6877 residents were made and 5.25% (361/6877) abnormal electrocardiograms were detected in the 16 surveillance sites. Fifty-five people were checked by chest X-ray and there were 31 cases with heart-chest ratio ≤0.50, 16 cases with heart-chest ratio from 0.51 to 0.55 and 8 cases with heart-chest ratio from 0.56 to 0.60. The prevalence rate and incidence rate of chronic KD were 4.24 per 100 000 and 0.50 per 100 000 in Yunnan. No acute or subacute cases were found and the latent cases were listed. The prevalence rate and incidence rate were 7.76 per 100 000 and 1.18 per 100 000 in the 16 surveillance sites. Conclusions The incidence of KD is low incidence in Yunnan Province. Higher ineidence of chronic KD was detected in the some areas and the corresponding control measures need to be adopted.

Objective In order to master the current situation of Keshan disease in Yunnan province and to provide scientific basis for Keshan disease control and prevention. Methods Eighteen villages were selected as the investigation sites in 6 counties across all the Keshan disease wards in Yunnan province,where the residents were investigated. Then,the villages census data was collected,clinical examination aiming mainly on cardiovascular system was carried out,including electrocardiography and X-ray to the suspected patients. Correct diagnose of Keshan disease was made by the Diagnostic Standard of Keshan Disease(GB 17021-1997). At the same time,10 food samples and 10 hair samples for detecting selenium content in every investigation site. Results There were 9818 residents investigated in the 18 investigation sites in 6 counties,and 34 eases of Keshan disease were found,the total incidence rate was 0.35%(34/9818). Among the 34 Keshan disease eases,32 cases were latent Keshan disease,the incidence rate was 0.33%(32/9818); 2 cases were chronic Keshan disease,the incidence rate was 0.02%(2/9818). There was no any acute and sub acute cases be found. Most Keshan disease cases aged from 5 to 14,67.65% (23/34). Abnormal ECG rate was 6.90% (677/9818). Among 56 X-ray films,47 cases had a cardiothoracic ratio less than or equal to 0.50,83.93%(47/56),5 cases from 0.51 to 0.55,8.93%(5/56),4 cases from 0.56 to 0.60,7.14%(4/56). Selenium content was detected in 180 food samples and 180 hair samples. The average food selenium content (mg/kg) was 0.013±0.010,the lowest content in Yongsheng county (0.006± 0.001),the highest content in Tonghai county(0.027±0.009). The average hair selenium eontentwas(0.252± 0.078)mg/kg,with the lowest(0.145±0.043)mg/kg in Yoagsbeng county,the highest (0.297±0.062)mg/kg in Tonghai county. Conclusions The detected ratio of Keshan disease is low in Yunnan province. Most of Keshan disease patients age from 5 to 14. It was presented that the Keshan disease infectious agents were still strong and active. The foodstuffs and hair Selenium content is low in food and hair sample,and varies in different investigation site. It is necessary to supply selenium for prevent Keshan disease in the severe areas.

Objective To observe the effect of goal-directed fluid therapy on hemodynamic and regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO 2 )in the elder patient undergoing one-lung ventilation. Methods Fifty-eight patients scheduled for esophagus cancer resection(44 males,14 females,aged 65-79 years,ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ),were randomly divided into two groups (n =29 each)u-sing a random number table:conventional fluid therapy group (group C)and goal-directed fluid ther-apy group (group G).Implementing radial artery puncture and internal jugular vein puncture under local anesthesia in order to monitor BP and CVP.The Flotrac/Vigileo system was used to monitor cardiac output (CO),stroke volume variation (SVV)and cardiac index (CI)in the both group.As mentioned all above,group C received conventional fluid therapy based on MAP,CVP and urine vol-ume,whereas group G received goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT)based on SVV with the goal of CI at 2.5-4.0 L·min-1·m-2 .Intraoperative continuous monitoring of rSO 2 was performed and the sur-gery rSO 2 average (rSO 2 ),the minimal surgery rSO 2 (rSO 2min )and the maximal percentage of the decreased rSO 2 compared to baseline values (rSO 2%max )were calculated in the both group.The varia-tion of MAP,HR,CVP,SVV and CI at the onset of the monitoring (T1 ),the momment before one-lung ventilation (T2 ),30 min after one-lung ventilation (T3 ),1 h after one-lung ventilation(T4 )and the end of the surgery (T5 )were recorded.The requirement for crystalloid and colloid,total volume of fluid infused,bleeding volume,urine volume,and requirement for vasoactive agents were recorded during operaton.Results Compared with group C,MAP at T3 ,T4 and CI at T3-T5 in group G were increased significantly,while CVP at T3-T5 and SVV at T2-T5 in group G were decreased (P <0.05). The rSO 2%max in group G was significantly lower than that in group C (P <0.05).No statistically sig-nificant difference was observed in the rSO 2 and rSO 2min between the two groups.Compared with group C,the requirement for crystalloid [(668±187)ml vs (1052±221)ml and total volume of fluid infused [(1212±318)ml vs (1519±329)ml],urine volume [(211±47)ml vs (278±54)ml]and vasoactive agents [4 cases (14%)vs 14 cases (48%)]were significantly decreased (P <0.05),the requirement for colloid were increased [(544±103)ml vs (467±94)ml,P <0.05].Conclusion The goal-directed fluid therapy based on SVV stabilizes the hemodynamic effectively,improves the CI and the perfusion of brain,and maintains the cereral oxygen metabolism in the elder patient undergoing one-lung ventilation.

Four screening methods, colorimetric assay, blood-plate hemolysis method, surface tension activ- ity and oil spreading technique were introduced to isolate strains producing bio-demulsifiers from 6 different bacteria source samples. The results of various screening methods were evaluated in this paper. Seventeen demulsifying strains were obtained, which are qualified in demulsification test of kerosene model emulsions. Among them, 5 strains showed high demulsifying ability, achieving 70% plus demulsifying ratio within 24 hours. Petroleum-contaminated soil, excess sludge from biological process treating oilfield produced water and sludge from municipal wastewater treatment plant were the best among all tested sources. Due to the determination limit, the colorimetric assay and blood-plate hemolysis method are not competent to screen bio-demulsifiers strains. The measurement of surface tension and oil spreading method were easy but accu- rate methods to isolate bio-demulsifiers strains. Although demulsification test of model emulsion is an effec- tive technique to target strains with the capability of breaking emulsions, it is sophisticated and time-con- suming. Thus it is recommended to use surface tension and oil spreading methods in pre-screening and vali- date the results in demulsification test with kerosene model emulsions.
